"No. Even if he didn't force me, I don't want to be the emperor. I just want to be an ordinary person and do what I like. For me, this is the greatest happiness."
"Take a look back at Huacong lazily, half destined to practice Taoism and half destined to be a king. You did it."
"Although the emperor is usually domineering, he is actually very fragile sometimes. When my father passed away, he was sad for a long time. Although he didn't say anything, I could tell."
There was a touch of sadness on his face, probably this was the brotherhood of the royal family.
Others may think that Ouyang Shaoqian is inferior to Ouyang Shaogong, but Chu Mengni doesn't think so. They both have their own strengths and weaknesses.
Ouyang Shaoqian is more suitable to live a life of leisurely clouds and wild cranes. Somewhere, there must be a girl who is more suitable for him waiting for him.
She had always thought that Ouyang Shaogong was ruthless to her parents and brothers for the sake of the throne, but now she realized that she had wrongly blamed him.
But what's the use, he never wants to see him again.
If she has another chance to see him, she must apologize to him.
Tianhe Hall
At the end of summer and the beginning of autumn, there is still a touch of summer in the afternoon air.
Ouyang Shaogong was sitting in the hall, still busy reviewing the memorials sent in the morning.
Jinbao walked in and broke the tranquility in the palace. He stood before His Highness and said formally: "Your Majesty, no one named Changqin has been found in Kyoto."
How is it possible?
Ouyang Shaogong slowly raised his head and said, "What has she been doing recently?"
"Miss Chu hasn't done anything recently, but Mr. and Mrs. Chu Dafu are constantly looking for a partner for her, as if they are anxious to marry her off."
"Don't even think about marrying someone else, huh!" Ouyang Shaogong's voice became cold and hard.
"By the way, Miss Chu visited Prince Yu yesterday."
"Did she turn a deaf ear to what I said? Damn that woman!" Ouyang Shaogong jumped up and slapped the table hard.
His face became increasingly gloomy, as if a storm was about to come.
It was obviously the beginning of autumn, but I suddenly felt very cold.
Jinbao couldn't help but shiver and secretly prayed for Chu Mengni in his heart.
She is not easy to mess with, but she wants to mess with the emperor. This time she is dead.
Chu Mansion
"The imperial edict has arrived!"
With a shout, all the young and old people from Chu Mansion came out and knelt in the front yard to listen to the announcement.
Everyone was wondering what the emperor's decree would be.
Jinbao smiled, which made Chu Mengni's uneasy heart feel a little calmer.
Chu Chengen was the slowest to come out. He yawned unhurriedly, with a calm look on his face, as if he had already expected this.
After everyone had arrived, Jinbao began to read out the imperial edict: "The emperor's edict is carried by heaven: Because Mengni of the Chu family is beautiful, intelligent, considerate, and uniquely blessed by nature, I have appointed her as the imperial concubine, with the title of Mengfei, from the fourth rank. I admire her."
Chu Mengni was stunned, and she even forgot to accept the order.
Mrs. Chu bumped into the woman next to her and said softly: "Mengni, hurry up and receive the imperial edict."
Chu Mengni felt very uncomfortable being looked at by these eyes. She took the imperial edict from Jin Bao's hand numbly and said: "I accept the edict and thank the emperor for his kindness."
Jinbao's face was full of joy: "Congratulations to the empress Meng Fei, please tidy up and follow the slave into the palace."
With Concubine Meng here, the emperor won't have so much time to take out his anger on his slave.
Chu Mengni jumped up: "Does that mean I'm going to marry him? What he's blessed with is just nonsense. I won't marry him."
