Since the Qin family broke off their engagement, people in the capital watched the excitement of the Mu and Qin families twice more.
The day after the Qin family came to cancel the engagement, Mu Mingyuan cried in front of the emperor and asked the emperor to make the decision. This was a marriage given by the emperor. The Qin family actually humiliated his daughter like this. This was because they did not take him seriously.
Don't take the emperor seriously.
The corner of the emperor's mouth twitched. Although the matter at Qingyun Tower was between the noble sons and noble ladies, in the eyes of adults, it was almost like children's play.
However, the emperor still heard something.
After your Mu family’s daughter was engaged to the Qin family, she had an affair with another man. Now you have the nerve to say that others are humiliating your daughter?
Isn’t it your daughter who brought disgrace upon herself?
Of course, he is the emperor, and he would not say such things.
He just said: "I did grant this marriage. However, I cannot force the marriage. I will mention this matter to Qin Aiqing."
The emperor had already said so. No matter how much Mu Mingyuan had to say, he could not say any more. He just cried and begged: "Your Majesty, the blood and bones of your daughter are indeed the son of Qin. Your Majesty wants to make the decision for me and my daughter."
Make the decision! If the Qin family insists on refusing to admit it, it will force the minister to die!"
The emperor said: "I love you, please relax. You and Qin Aiqing are both my ministers. I am naturally happy to see your family's marriage be harmonious!"
After Mu Mingyuan left the palace, the emperor summoned Marquis Dingyuan.
However, before Marquis Dingyuan entered the palace, the eldest prince Chu Chengye asked to see the emperor first.
He said: "Father, when I heard that Mu Mingyuan came to you, I must marry my daughter to a cousin of the Qin family?"
The emperor glanced at him and said calmly: "That's what happened!"
Chu Chengye immediately said: "Father, you cannot agree to this matter. The daughter of the Mu family has an affair with another man, and even has children. If she still marries the cousin of the Qin family, the cousin of the Qin family
Isn’t it true that he was a cuckold before he got married? I have always been on good terms with my cousin, and I really don’t want to see him being humiliated like this!”
"What do you mean, you don't agree with Qin Mu's family getting married?"
Chu Chengye said indignantly: "Originally, whether a man was unmarried or an unmarried woman could marry, it all depended on fate, but now it's different. Since the daughter of the Mu family has done something shameless, he is not worthy of the Qin family.
Cousin, it’s not that the Qin family is sorry for the Mu family, but that the Mu family is sorry for the Qin family!”
The emperor laughed and said with unclear meaning: "It seems that you and your Qin family cousin do have a good relationship!"
Chu Chengye did not dare to answer these words casually. He paused and said: "After all, he is the nephew of the mother-in-law's mother's family. Naturally, the sons and ministers have to take care of them for the mother-in-law. Other than that, there is no other friendship.
."
"Why are you panicking? You and the boy from the Qin family are indeed cousins, and I am not unreasonable. Why should you be afraid?"
Chu Chengye said: "Yes! My father is generous, gentle, kind and helpful, and my children and ministers are not afraid!"
The emperor looked at his submissive look, with a dark look in his eyes, and asked: "Is it your idea to come to me, or is it your mother and concubine's idea?"
Chu Chengye said: "It was your minister's idea!"
"Your mother and concubine don't know?"
"Go back to my father, my mother and concubine don't know!"
"Okay, I understand. Just step back!"
"Father..."
The emperor glanced at him lightly: "Back off!"
Chu Chengye had no choice but to resign. However, when he exited the Qinzheng Hall and left the emperor's sight, his lowered eyebrows and cautious demeanor completely changed. The corners of his lips curled up slightly, revealing a sneer.
The mother-in-law really understands the father the best.
Everything, just wait for the situation to develop!
Dingyuan Marquis Qin Muzhao met with his son. When the emperor asked about their opinions, Qin Muzhao blushed and said that his Qin family could not afford such a daughter-in-law, and he could not accept this marriage!
Qin Xuran said nothing, with his head lowered, as if he was deeply shocked.
The emperor said: "Qin Xuran, do you also want to break off the engagement? If so, I will immediately issue an order for you to break off the engagement!"
Qin Xuran suddenly kowtowed: "Your Majesty, please make the decision. I, I don't want to break off the engagement. I want to marry Qier!"
The emperor raised his eyebrows and said, "Even if she is pregnant with another man's child, do you not mind?"
Qin Xuran knew that the child was his, so he said flatly: "Go back to the emperor, I don't mind!"
The emperor smiled and said: "Since the two of you are so deeply in love, I can't be the one to beat the two of them with sticks!"
Qin Muzhao was shocked and said: "Your Majesty..."
The emperor smiled half-heartedly and said: "Qin Aiqing, it is normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines. Since your son wants to marry the woman he likes, you can also help him marry the daughter-in-law you like! Don't you think so?"
p>
Qin Muzhao lowered his head and whispered: "Yes!"
"Okay, you just choose a date to get married! Back off!"
The Qin family father and son resigned and left.
Both of them remained silent until they left the palace and got on the carriage parked outside the palace. Only then did the father and son look at each other.
Qin Xuran breathed a sigh of relief, but Qin Muzhao raised the corners of his lips. All this is the same as the eldest prince's plan.
What they didn't know was that when the father and son left the Qinzheng Hall, the emperor smiled playfully and said in a low voice: "Everyone acts in front of me, and I will do what you want!"
How could he not understand the temperaments of his sons?
He even knows the temperament of the Qin family's son.
If the Mu family's daughter is really pregnant with another man's child, the Qin family father and son will never agree to the marriage even if they kneel through the floor.
Now, some of them agree and some are against it. In the final analysis, they are just trying to deceive others.
When his sons grew up, each had his or her own abilities. He did not establish a prince because he felt that the two children were both good and it was hard to make a decision at the moment.
Then let them fight by themselves. The winner will be determined and he won’t have to worry about it!
What they are fighting for is the position of prince, not the throne!
The engagement between Qin and Mu's family continued as usual. When the news came out, many people were shocked and the tea house and tavern were extremely lively.
Then there were some changes in the court. Whenever something was discussed, if Qin Muzhao agreed, Mu Mingyuan would definitely object, and if Mu Mingyuan agreed, Qin Muzhao would also object!
That kind of opposition for the sake of opposition, tit-for-tat confrontation in the court, blushing and glaring angrily, made many members of the Four Princes secretly happy.
The eldest prince relied heavily on Qin Muzhao, but Qin Muzhao pushed Mu Mingyuan, who was in a high position and was absolutely powerful, far away. Although it was because of the dispute over the marriage of his children, they were happy to see this situation.
Only Chu Xinyuan deliberately met the fourth prince again in person somewhere because of this matter.
Chu Xinyuan did not think that Mu Mingyuan really had a grudge against the eldest prince, and asked the fourth prince not to take it lightly.
The fourth prince didn't take it seriously and said with a smile: "Is the fifth brother too suspicious?"
