"How could His Highness the Crown Prince treat our Yue'er like that?" She said with resentment on her face, "She is still a girl who has not yet left the imperial court! To call her a jealous woman in public is simply too much! What a shame for you before. He was running around in front of him and behind his back! He didn't even have the slightest bit of respect!"
"You can't say that..." Gao Xiang lamented, "It's not because our daughter is ignorant and humiliated Miss Su first, which angered His Highness, so he said these things!"
"You're wrong to say that!" Yuan said angrily, "If you want to get to the root of this, isn't it that Su Li was too domineering? Throughout the ages, which emperor has not had three palaces and six courtyards? Why did she have to let the prince marry only her? Where is one person? She is clearly jealous! She saved the prince by herself, and she actually made such an unreasonable request! What did the prince think? Why did he agree to it? "
"Didn't I tell you about this?" Gao Xiang sighed repeatedly, "If you keep nagging me, do you believe that he can really give me the old princess as my equal wife? When the time comes, will you accept it or not?"
"Of course I don't accept it!" Mrs. Yuan cried, "There is no such thing as bullying! What kind of marriage does he give us when we are old? He obviously wants to embarrass us! Let's let him take in a few more concubines to support the royal family. Spreading branches and leaves, this is all for his sake! To put it bluntly, with Su Li's small body, so fragile, and ready to collapse in the wind, there is no doubt whether she can have children!"
"What are you talking about?" Gao Xiang was so angry that the veins on his forehead bulged, "I haven't even entered the door yet, but you are criticizing the person's heirs! I think Yue'er's unabashed temperament is... It’s up to you! You’ll get into trouble if you do this!”
"If we don't cause this trouble, won't we also be involved in it?" Mrs. Yuan's face was filled with resentment. "Yue'er and Qi Yao were rejected from entering the palace. They already lost face and were heartbroken. I pity these two little girls. How can it be difficult for them to do so?" Even though he was drunk in a restaurant, he didn't dare to tell us the truth. Isn't it enough to be so humble and forbearing? Then why did Su Li insist on killing everyone and instigating the Xu family girl to kill our Jiao'er? She doesn't know anything now. That’s it!」
Mrs. Yuan started to cry again as she spoke, "Poor my son, if you have any shortcomings, my mother will definitely avenge you! Even if she fights for this miserable life, she will get justice for you! It's not that the prince doesn't want to marry My son? Then I must place my son’s memorial tablet in the imperial mausoleum..."
"Why is this getting more and more outrageous?" When Gao Xiang heard the last part, cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He hurriedly went to cover her mouth, but Yuan Shi threw her away!
"I'm not joking with you!" Yuan gritted her teeth, "I don't care who you are, anyway, if my son's life is lost, Xiao Lin must give me a decent explanation! Either , let Xu Qiang and Su Li pay for my son's life! If not, they will make my son the crown princess! Even if Su Li gets married in the future, she can only be regarded as a stepmother!"
"Oh my God!" Gao Xiang was stunned, "Who do you think His Highness the Crown Prince is? Is it me, a henpecked old man? Or your obedient sons? He is a new king! Do you think this request of yours is... Is it possible for him to agree? Why do you ask him to agree to such a ridiculous request?"
"Just because of the woman he favored, he made the public angry and chilled the hearts of his ministers!" Yuan was used to being strong. Now she clenched her fists and widened her eyes angrily, "Gao Qi, Zhao and Xue's four families, plus one more Your Highness, the five of us stand together. If he really dares not to agree, we will dare to prevent him from marrying the queen! No matter how powerful he is, now that the new dynasty has just been established, everything is waiting to be done. If you lose all your arms, If he takes it off his hands, who else can he expect to be loyal to him?"
"Don't be so extreme!" Gao Xiang lamented, "My son is blessed with good fortune, and Miss Su has great medical skills. She can even cure His Highness's difficult-to-treat poison. She will be fine!"
"Is it okay?" Ms. Yuan snorted coldly, "After suffering so many crimes and being scolded by him in public, my son's reputation has been completely destroyed by his hands! If he refuses to accept me, how will my son discuss marriage in the future? Which descendant of the aristocratic family dares to marry her? If she is ruined like this in her flowery years, what difference will it make to death? Xiao Lin, both emotionally and rationally, must give us a satisfactory explanation!"
Gao Xiang was confused by what she said. He seemed to think that what she said was quite reasonable. He remained silent for a moment.
But Yuan had already made up her mind: "When you enter the palace later, don't say anything. Leave everything to me! If you can't do it for me this time,
If our son seeks justice, where will our Gao family's face be saved? Furthermore..."
She paused and sneered: "You have been working hard for him, risking your life and property to help him ascend the throne! In all these years, we have never asked him for anything! If he even made this humble request, he would If you can't agree, then you have to think carefully about whether this monarch is worth following! If it's for a woman, even the veteran minister who has followed him for so many years will be abandoned. With all due respect, such a person..."
She snorted coldly and said no more.
Gao Xiang was also confused when she said this.
He really wanted to see how important he, an old minister, was in Xiao Lin's heart!
Furthermore, he originally complained a lot about Xiao Lin marrying only Su Li. Later, although he was silenced by the idea of marrying the old princess, he still disagreed with it in his heart.
It's not that he insists on marrying a dragon or a phoenix, or that his daughter enters the palace, it's because the rules of his ancestors cannot be abolished.
To put it bluntly, emperors in the past dynasties had so many concubines, but how many princes could actually survive and grow up safely?
Babies are delicate and fragile and cannot withstand wind and rain. Any accident can cause their death.
In fact, the same is true among the people. Disasters are ruthless. If you give birth to one more child, you will have more protection. If one child dies, there will always be alternatives available, so that you will not have no children to support you.
If a commoner has no son to inherit the family, he will be bullied and plotted by others, let alone an emperor.
The common people have nothing at their knees, and at most they will be bullied. But if the emperor has no heirs, it will affect the turmoil of the country. Now the surrounding countries are watching with eager eyes, and there are countless secret spies from various countries in the capital. These people are sharpened. He wants to plot against people in the royal family, and various assassination activities against the royal family and nobles have never stopped.
To put it bluntly, if your son has a baby, it won’t be enough for others to plot against him!
What bullshit, a life-long relationship, is simply a joke of young people’s stupidity and impulsiveness!
Thinking of this, Prime Minister Gao decided to let go and let his wife make trouble.
If it really happened, it would be a great thing for the country, the people, and the Gao family!
