Chapter 104 Dismissal
Seeing that the eldest princess was pressing forward, Queen Song thought that Qu Ling's marriage to the Wang family was settled.
She spoke before the Grand Historian, "The princess, whether she wants to marry or not, is decided by the Marquis of Dingxiang. I know you care about her, but there's no such thing as breaking off a marriage."
The Wang family and the Marquis's Mansion had already signed the marriage certificate, and the matter was settled. No one could break up the marriage.
Qu Ling must marry.
The Marquis' Mansion is taking the blame for the Crown Prince and the Song family.
Once the marriage relationship is formed, she can die.
Zhao Ju could only watch with her own eyes as the girl she loved married into a merchant family and died in a large mansion.
Next, it’s Zhao Yuanrong’s turn.
Queen Song was in a much better mood.
"Your Majesty, why don't you send someone to the Marquis' Mansion to ask if the princess has anyone she likes?"
She was deliberately confusing the audience.
He didn't ask if her illness was healed, but only asked if Qu Ling was willing to get married.
Queen Song was confident.
There must have been a lot of commotion outside the palace, as the princess and the merchant's son had secretly decided to get married.
The man found the marquis's mansion. Although the marquis was angry, he wrote the marriage certificate with his own hands to help the lovers get together.
Then the emperor and empress in the palace issued an edict to grant the marriage, making it a beautiful thing.
"My A-Ling abides by the rules. If he finds someone he likes, he will naturally tell me." The eldest princess raised an eyebrow and sneered, "Unlike some people who secretly get married to others and bring shame to A-Ling."
She pulled out a marriage certificate from her bosom and threw it at the emperor.
Queen Song was stunned and didn't react.
Who are those certain people?
Who lost face?
She subconsciously wanted to take the marriage certificate, but Zhao Yuanrong squeezed between her and the emperor, forcibly separating the two of them. "What marriage certificate? Uncle, let me see it."
A Ling had someone write the marriage certificate with great difficulty. It would be bad if Queen Song went crazy and tore it up.
The emperor's eyes swept over the marriage certificate and his brows gradually frowned.
"Empress, it turns out your niece was secretly involved in a transaction with someone, and someone came to your house to investigate?"
Zhao Yuanrong spoke very loudly, afraid that others might not hear him.
Queen Song thought she had heard wrongly.
"Impossible." She said sharply.
But looking at the emperor's expression, it seemed that what Zhao Yuanrong said was right.
Queen Song looked at the eldest princess fiercely, "You are so capable that you even dare to fabricate a marriage certificate."
It must be Zhao Ju who switched names. Qu Ling's name should be on the marriage certificate.
"Fabricated?" The eldest princess pressed on. "I think your Song family is the most powerful. You can manipulate anyone you want!"
She opened up and said, "A Ling has cursed you, and the only way to resolve it is through marriage. And then it just so happens that the man she likes comes to ask for your hand in marriage. What are you planning?"
The emperor's face turned pale. "Empress, what's the matter with Wang Yan on this marriage certificate?"
As the son of a merchant, he is indeed not worthy of Aling.
Queen Song bit her lip and said nothing.
She didn't even bother to defend herself.
So what if the emperor knew?
Anyway, haven't I been helping her clean up the mess all these years?
"Sister," the emperor said, "I'm afraid there's some misunderstanding."
The princess was used to his smoothing things over. "Now that things have come to this, please grant us the marriage, Your Majesty."
"The marriage cannot be granted." Queen Song blurted out.
That was her sister's only daughter. Her father would not allow her to bring Lianzhi to the palace, nor would he allow her to marry into a merchant family.
"Then grant him death." The eldest princess didn't even raise her eyelids.
The emperor sighed, "I have issued an edict granting the marriage."
He just wanted to calm down quickly.
However, this action did not make the eldest princess happy, but made her feel very uncomfortable.
In fact, it was Qu Lianzhi's marriage to Wang Yan that really made the Wang family more devoted to the Song family.
The money that the prince used to raise his private soldiers was obtained through fraud. The fraudster was caught, the Duke Su's Mansion was gone, and the Wang family became the new blood.
The Song family has raised death squads and secret guards for the prince. With the support of the Wang family, they will only become stronger and stronger.
Is the emperor really not afraid of being forced to abdicate?
The eldest princess originally wanted to kill Wang Yan completely.
It was Qu Ling who brought the message, "Aunt, just wait. I will hand the Wang family over to you."
She believed in Qu Ling, so she listened to Qu Ling.
"And you," the princess looked at the Grand Historian, "tell me again, if the princess doesn't marry, will the queen never recover?"
She said, "Since the Queen is ill, please hand over the Phoenix Seal. I will take charge of the affairs of the harem for the time being."
Queen Song thought she was crazy.
He actually wanted to interfere in the harem.
She couldn't admit defeat like this.
Empress Song made a quick decision, snatching up the teacup beside her and throwing it at the Grand Historian. "How dare you deceive me?"
"I've clearly been feeling much better lately."
The Grand Historian wiped his cold sweat and said, "Perhaps the divination was wrong."
"You are unworthy of your position and are just sitting there doing nothing," the princess ordered directly, "dismiss you and expel you from the capital."
The emperor quickly ordered the guards to drag him away.
After the eldest princess left, Queen Song was so angry that she could not stand up and lay on the couch cursing.
"I'm going to kill Zhao Ju, I'm going to kill her and her little bastard!"
When the oral order granting the marriage reached the Secretariat, Song Guang realized that there was a mistake in such a simple matter.
"Trash, a bunch of trash."
He was so angry that he overturned the table.
Fortunately, it doesn’t matter who marries Wang Yan. What matters is to use the Dingxiang Marquis’ Mansion as a shield and use the Wang family’s money to fill the holes in raising death squads and secret guards.
What really upset him right now was that the prince refused to marry Song Yuzhen.
Sometimes he would blame Queen Song for not being able to live up to her expectations. Why couldn't she give birth to another son, even a princess?
Song Guang suddenly had an idea.
Princess?
Isn’t there a ready-made princess?
If the Crown Prince dies, then the Princess will be killed and the puppet Princess Kangle will be supported to ascend the throne...
Song Guang's heart was filled with emotion.
Why hadn't he thought of it before?
If the late emperor could pass the throne to the eldest princess, why couldn’t the emperor pass the throne to Princess Kangle?
Song Guang laughed three times towards the sky.
He watched the prince grow up. He was quite obedient when he was young, but as he grew older, his mind became more and more profound. He also had an unclear relationship with Zhao Yuanrong.
However, the prince was a smart man, and he planned to have another good talk with the prince.
Song Guang was in a much happier mood, and the gloom brought about by the marriage arranged for Qu Lianzhi was swept away.
It was not until early September when the imperial edict granting marriage arrived at the Dingxiang Marquis' Mansion that Qu Lianzhi learned that she was actually going to get married.
"Where's Qu Ling? Where is Qu Ling?" She smashed things in the room like crazy.
Who is Wang Yan?
Is a lowly son of a merchant family worthy of marrying the daughter of a marquis?
It must have been Qu Ling who did it.
After moving out of Nuanshanju, she was placed in a courtyard closer to the main courtyard.
Her father said he would take care of her personally, but in fact he never came to visit her once.
He betrothed her to someone else without even giving her any information.
Qu Lianzhi sat in the corner, hugged her knees, and sobbed.
No one cares about her except her mother.
She hated them.
She hated this mansion which had become her prison.
Qu Lianzhi's vicious eyes were revealed, she wanted to drag everyone to death with her.
"Princess, the second young lady smashed everything in the house and cried for the whole day." Guanqi came in and said.
Qu Ling ignored her.
"Let her make a fuss, even if she wants to hang herself."
The old lady’s sixtieth birthday is coming soon.
Qu Ling is very busy.
