The decree granting the marriage was issued that night.
Dou Huiran, the legitimate daughter of the Minister of Civil Affairs, was married to the seventh prince Rong Li, and Du Jia, the legitimate daughter of the Inspector Shi family, was married to the eighth prince Rong Yang.
According to the divination of Qin Tian Jian, it was decided that the marriage would be completed on the sixth day of the fifth lunar month.
This result was already expected for those who participated in the flower viewing party, so it was not surprising.
But for Dou Shangshu, it was obviously something unexpected.
Because the emperor clearly planned to marry Hui Ran to the King of War at first, but he didn't expect that in the end he would become the seventh prince's concubine.
Fortunately, he quickly accepted this fact.
After all, Dou Huiran had offended King Zhan and his wife. He did not want to be the son-in-law of King Zhan in such an embarrassing situation. However, the emperor had had that intention before, so he would inevitably have to think about whether to keep a distance from King Chen in the future. .
"It's good to be married to the seventh prince." He took a long breath, stood up with the imperial edict in hand, and repeated with lingering fear, "It's good."
"I still think it would be better to be the concubine of the War King." Mrs. Dou murmured in a low voice, "The War King has a lot of troops, and depending on the current situation, maybe in the future... he will be able to soar into the sky. Then we will not be able to do anything. Let’s get some light…”
Although the seventh prince also occupies the title of prince, he has no power and power. He is just a county prince. In terms of power, ability, status and salary, how can he compare to the war king?
Marrying the seventh prince means that he can only live a mediocre life in the future, with no right to speak, and glory and wealth have become a luxury.
"A woman's opinion." Dou Shangshu turned around and walked to the inner hall, "I have given you a marriage decree. You tell Hui Ran to stay at home and learn the rules of the mistress in charge of the house. She is not allowed to go out at will. "
Because of the marriage, Dou Huiran was pardoned by the queen from the punishment of continuing the rules of the palace school, and was allowed to go home to be taught by Mrs. Dou herself.
Dou Shangshu thought to himself that this was the best result at the moment.
Who doesn’t want to earn the merit of being a dragon and become a noble person in the future?
Wealth can be found in danger.
I used to think that it was certain that King Chen would take the throne, but in recent days, the emperor's attitude has become more and more unpredictable, and it seems that he is paving the way for the king of war.
He didn't dare to place his bet on King Chen again.
However, if he suddenly turns to the King of War at this time, he is afraid that King Chen will be dissatisfied with him. If he continues to be loyal to King Chen, the lives of the entire Dou family and even the nine clans may be blocked.
So he had to learn to be silent and wait for changes.
Compared with the conventional marriages of the Seventh and Eighth Princes, the marriage of Miss Qin from the Grand Tutor's Mansion was beyond everyone's expectations.
The emperor issued an imperial edict that Qin Zhilan, Grand Tutor Qin's granddaughter, be married to Rong Huaishu, the eldest son of Prince Rong's Palace. Not only Qin Zhilan himself froze on the spot, but everyone in Prince Rong's Palace was also extremely surprised.
They stayed at home and did nothing, and a marriage decree was issued out of thin air?
King Rong hurriedly led his family to receive the order and asked his son urgently: "What did you do to Miss Qin?"
Rong Huaishu looked confused: "My son has been studying at home these days and has never even left the house."
King Rong reacted instantly, yes, Huai Shu had never been out, how could he have the chance to contact the girl from the Qin family?
Why did the emperor suddenly grant them marriage?
While the family in Prince Rong's Mansion was still immersed in the sudden confusion, Prince Chen and his wife were having dinner in the Prince's Mansion.
After returning home from the palace, they didn't go anywhere and kept waiting for the news of the marriage.
"The queen praised Miss Qin for being well-educated and knowledgeable." Princess Chen virtuously prepared dishes for Prince Chen. "Miss Qin also expressed her admiration for the prince in her words. I think the queen will do what the prince wishes."
King Chen nodded slowly: "I hope so——"
Before he finished speaking, the servant hurriedly came to report: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"
King Chen frowned and subconsciously wanted to reprimand him for his lack of discipline. The boy stumbled when he walked to the threshold and almost fell. He held on to the door frame in time to stabilize himself: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty, the imperial edict from the palace..."
King Chen stood up and said, "Is there a decree?"
"No, it's not." The boy took a deep breath, "The royal decree was sent to Prince Rong's Mansion, and the Emperor granted the marriage of Miss Qin from Taifu's Mansion to the Crown Prince of Prince Rong's Mansion."
What?
King Chen's expression condensed, and the smile on his face faded little by little. He almost thought he heard wrongly: "What did you say?"
Princess Chen also froze and asked involuntarily: "Who do you think the emperor gave Miss Qin to marry?"
The boy repeated: "The Crown Prince of Prince Rong's Mansion."
boom!
King Chen suddenly kicked over the stool and his face was so furious that he was so frightened that the boy's legs softened and he knelt on the ground. He took a deep breath, his face was livid and gloomy, and a strong feeling of disappointment and chill came out of his heart.
Why?
what is this?
What did he do wrong? Why did his father suddenly change his attitude towards him and make things difficult for him everywhere?
He just wants to marry a concubine, is it so difficult?
Qin Zhilan is willing to marry, he is willing to marry, why does his father want to stand in the way?
Why? ?
The air seemed to be stagnant. King Chen closed his eyes and said coldly: "Get out!"
As if he had received an amnesty, the young man hurriedly got up and ran out.
King Chen stood blankly alone for a moment, until Princess Chen spoke uneasily: "Your Majesty——"
"Go to hell!" King Chen raised his hand and overturned the table roughly, with a murderous look on his face, "Go to hell! Why not die? Why does he have to live for so long? Is it okay to die quickly? Is it okay to die quickly? no?!"
The table was overturned and dishes were thrown to the floor. The air was mixed with the smell of meat, vegetables, wine, and soup, and it was instantly a mess.
Princess Chen took two steps back in shock, her face turned pale, and she almost did not dare to face such a violent husband.
"Jiang Ying." King Chen suddenly turned to look at her, his eyes bloodshot and red, "Did you interfere with this?"
Princess Chen's expression suddenly changed: "Your Majesty, you...what are you talking about?"
"I sent flowers to Qin Zhilan, and Prince Yu also sent flowers to her. According to the usual rules in the palace, in this case, unless the father and the queen do not grant Qin Zhilan a marriage, if they want to grant a marriage, they will only choose me. King Chen or King Yu." King Chen's voice was cold, "Since she participated in the flower viewing party, and the flower viewing party was by default prepared for the prince to choose his concubine, why was she eventually given a marriage to Rong Huaishu?"
Princess Chen stared at him blankly, her face pale: "Why should I interfere with this? The prince and I are husband and wife, and I will consider everything for the prince. How is it possible..."
"You and I are indeed married, but you are also worried that Qin Zhilan's ambition will threaten your status in the future, aren't you?" King Chen's voice was as cold as ice, and his eyes when looking at Jiang Ying were as cold as ice, "Qin Zhilan's background is not lower than yours. , her talent is no worse than yours, do you dare to swear that you are not jealous of her at all?"
Princess Chen looked at him in disbelief, her eyes red, and she felt a little bit disappointed: "Am I so unbearable in your heart?"
King Chen's face was stiff and cold, no longer the gentle look he had in front of others.
Jiang Ying looked at him for a moment. Seeing that he was silent for a long time, she finally turned and left with cold heart.
