Seeing that Yunli had made up his mind, Ling Ruo could only say: "In that case, I will ask the emperor for a decree tomorrow, and he will order a marriage between you and Niu Hulu Fuying."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Before Ling Ruo could say anything, he held his hands again and said, "Since there is nothing to do, I should take my leave and come back to pay my respects to Your Majesty another day." After saying this, he hesitated for a moment, and finally couldn't help it.
He asked, "Is everything okay with Princess Zhaoqing?"
"Jia Rou is very good." When Yunli was about to turn around, Ling Ruohu said: "Seventeenth Master is in a hurry to leave, but why are you complaining about me proposing your marriage?"
Yunli said without raising his head: "Your Majesty is also doing your best, so how could I blame your Majesty without knowing what is good for you? It's just that I still have some trivial matters to deal with in the palace, so I can't stay for a long time."
"If that's the case, then I won't keep the Seventeenth Master any longer." Ling Ruo knew that this was just Yunli's excuse. In his heart, he blamed himself for forcing him to get married even though he knew he loved her.
Yunli didn't say anything. He cupped his hands and left Chengqian Palace. When the dazzling sunlight fell on him without any cover, Yunli closed his eyes and took a deep breath of the hot air. When he opened it again, his eyes were already filled with
With a hint of redness, he strode away immediately without stopping for a moment.
Just because... this is not the place he should stay!
Looking at Yunli's leaving figure, Ling Ruo sighed deeply, but that was all. She hoped that Fuying and Yunli could live in harmony as husband and wife and grow old together.
The next day, Ling Ruo told Yinzhen about the incident. Although Yinzhen was quite surprised that Yunli chose Aling'a's daughter, it was rare for Yunli to agree to marry him, so there was no difficulty.
With a stroke of his pen, he drafted a decree to marry Yunli and Fuying.
When Princess Qin heard about the marriage decree, she was not very happy. In the final analysis, it was because the candidate for the marriage was Fu Ying, the daughter of a guilty minister. How could such a woman be qualified to marry into Prince Guo's palace?
He is still the direct descendant of Fujin, which has simply lowered the lintel of Prince Guo's palace. If the other concubines find out, they will not be able to make fun of him.
The more Concubine Qin thought about it, the more unwilling she became. After insinuating Yunli, she finally learned that Ling Ruo was responsible for the incident. After much consideration, she decided to enter the palace to meet the beloved concubine. She named Niu Hulu Fuying as Yunli.
Fujin was Yinzhen's will, and she could not resist it whether she wanted to or not. The only way was to ask Yinzhen to choose another suitable candidate through the imperial concubine.
Concubine Qin knew that this matter could not be delayed, so she went to the palace that afternoon to ask for a meeting with Ling Ruo. After letting the palace officials inform her, someone soon came out to welcome Concubine Qin in.
After entering, Ling Ruo smiled and asked Concubine Qin to sit down and said, "Why did Concubine Qin suddenly come over and cause such an accident to me?"
After the palace servants served tea, Concubine Qin said: "I came today specifically to thank Concubine Xi. If Concubine Xi had not taken the trouble, I don't know when Yunli's life-long event would have been settled."
"Concubine Qin is so polite. I'm just trying my best." Ling Ruo replied with a smile, but she knew very well that Concubine Qin definitely didn't just express her gratitude when she came here, she must also have other things to say. Sure enough,
, after she finished speaking, Concubine Qin said: "To be honest, my Majesty, in addition to thanking you, there is something else I want to ask for."
Ling Ruo maintained her usual smile and said, "Let me tell you, Princess Qin. If it is within my power, I will definitely agree."
Concubine Qin carefully considered her words and said: "I met Fuying once. Although she was still young at the time, she was already knowledgeable about books and etiquette, and she was very virtuous. But with all due respect, she is the daughter of a guilty minister after all.
It is really inappropriate to point out that Yunli is the direct descendant of Fujin. I also hope that the empress can help advise the emperor and ask the emperor to give him someone else. I know that Dase has a daughter with good character and character, who is far more suitable than Fuying."
Ling Ruo raised her long eyebrows lightly and said: "I was originally quite fond of the daughter of Dashe, but Master Qi chose Fu Ying himself, so I can't say anything more."
Concubine Qin thought for a while and said: "A Ling'a once taught Yunli. Yunli must have chosen Fuying because of the relationship between master and disciple. But she is indeed not suitable. I believe the empress should understand.
.”
Ling Ruo nodded slightly. Just when Concubine Qin thought she had complied with her request, she listened to her words: "Actually, marrying a wife is asking for a lady. Since even Concubine you think Aling'a's daughter is very virtuous, why bother because of her family background?"
Therefore, it is abandoned at the door. With the imperial favor that Prince Guo's palace now enjoys, there is no need to rely on any family background at all, don't you think so, Princess?"
Concubine Qin forced a smile and said: "Your Majesty, what you said is reasonable, but Yunli is Prince Guo after all. It doesn't sound good to marry the daughter of a guilty minister. I would like to do it for your convenience and talk to the Emperor about choosing one."
It doesn’t matter if it’s the daughter of a boudoir from a small family.”
"The concubine has this idea, and I understand it, but the imperial edict has been decided, so how can it be changed? Even if I go and say it, it will be in vain."
Concubine Qin said eagerly: "The emperor has always loved the empress. As long as the empress is willing to speak, the emperor will definitely agree. Please remember that Yunli has helped the empress before and say a few kind words for him."
"Has Concubine Qin discussed this matter with Master Seventeen?" Ling Ruo's question left Concubine Qin speechless. After a while, she said uncomfortably: "I will go and discuss this matter with Master Qin after I get your consent."
Yunli said, I believe he will not object."
"Taifei." Ling Ruo sighed and said: "Seventeenth Master attaches great importance to love and righteousness. I'm afraid he won't agree to this matter. If we get into a dispute, it won't hurt the relationship between mother and son. Fu Ying is also a surname of Niu Hulu.
Speaking of which, she is my clan sister. If the concubine really thinks that the background of the daughter of her guilty minister is not glorious enough, how about I recognize her as my adopted sister?"
"This..." Concubine Qin didn't expect Ling Ruo to come up with such a compromise. She didn't know how to answer for a moment. Concubine Xi's adopted sister's identity could indeed cover up the identity of the daughter of Fuying's guilty minister.
's origin.
Ling Ruo stood up and personally brought the tea to Princess Qin, "If Princess Qin doesn't say anything, I will treat you as if you have agreed. Tomorrow, the palace will announce that Niu Hulu and Fu Ying have entered the palace and officially recognize her as a adopted sister.
"
Concubine Qin looked at her for a long time and accepted the tea ceremony helplessly: "Your Majesty has already said this, so I have no choice but to agree. Thank you for taking so much trouble with Yunli."
"As the concubine said before, the Seventeenth Master has saved me. Compared with this life-saving grace, everything I do should be done." After saying this, Ling Ruohu said: "How many of you?
Everyone, please go out. I have a few words to say to Concubine Qin alone."
Although Shui Xiu and others felt strange, they did not dare to ask any more questions, and they all bowed and left. Hongying, who came with Concubine Qin, looked at Concubine Qin and then also retreated.
Concubine Qin said rather strangely: "I wonder if your Majesty has anything to say to me alone?"
