The second prince entered the palace and went straight to the imperial study.
"Father, I have something to ask of you."
The emperor didn't even bother to raise his eyelids. "What's the matter?"
The Second Prince said without hesitation, "I want to hold my wedding on the same day as my Third Brother."
"On the same day?" The Emperor finally raised his eyelids and glanced at the Second Prince calmly. "Do you think this is just a game? You can get married anytime you want?"
Although he really wanted the two of them to get married together, this would save him from further trouble.
"Father, don't you believe in this?"
The second prince touched his nose. He thought his father would not refuse.
"I don't believe it, but getting married is no small matter. If I don't choose a good day, what will the woman think?"
At that time, people will think that the royal family looks down on this future princess, so they are so careless.
"Then the Emperor has asked the Imperial Astronomical Observatory to help me and A-Yan calculate the birth date."
Seeing his anxious look, the emperor said to Eunuch Cao, "Go and call Luo Ji."
Luo Ji was soon brought to the imperial study. The second prince told him his and Du Shuyan's birth dates and prayed silently in his heart.
It must be earlier than the third brother.
It was obvious that he was the first to get engaged, so he couldn't be behind his third brother.
"This," Luo Ji looked at the date calculated from the birth dates of the two people, his face full of disbelief.
"What's wrong, Lord Luo?"
"Your Majesty, it's the same day as the Third Prince and Princess."
"That's great," the second prince said excitedly. He decided to send someone to tell the Du family when he got back, and he would start preparing the betrothal gifts and propose tomorrow.
After sending Luo Ji away, the emperor glanced at the second prince and said, "Alright, I will send someone to the Du Mansion to inform Lord Du about this."
…
at the same time.
Lord Du originally wanted to discuss something with Marquis Qingyuan, but before he even entered the mansion, he heard that the third prince had come to Marquis Qingyuan's mansion to propose marriage. He looked at Marquis Qingyuan, who looked unhappy.
"My Lord, men should marry when they are old enough, and women should marry when they are old enough. Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. Don't be too sad."
Marquis Qingyuan snorted coldly.
"If the Second Prince went to the Du Mansion to propose marriage now, I don't believe that Lord Du would still say such a thing."
Lord Du didn't say anything, but he was thinking in his heart how could it be possible. Yan'er and the second prince had been engaged for so long, and the emperor hadn't mentioned the wedding date, so he was not worried at all.
While he was thinking, a servant ran in from the door.
"My Lord, someone from Lord Du's residence is looking for Lord Du. They said there's something urgent."
"Send someone in."
A servant from the Du Mansion came in and said to Master Du, "Master, someone from the palace said that the wedding date for the young lady and the second prince has been set."
As soon as these words were spoken, Marquis Qingyuan looked at the stunned Lord Du and almost laughed out loud.
"The wedding date has been set?" Lord Du recovered. "Are you sure it's someone from the palace? When?"
"Yes, on the sixteenth of next month."
The sixteenth of next month? Isn't that the same day as the Third Prince and Princess?
"Master Du, men should get married when they are old enough and women should get married when they are old enough. Think about it."
Marquis Qingyuan, who was originally in a depressed mood, felt inexplicably better because of Lord Du's constantly changing expression.
I felt secretly happy, as it made it easier for Lord Du to talk without any pain in his waist.
After hearing what the servant said, Lord Du didn't even have time to say the purpose of his visit to the Qingyuan Marquis' Mansion, and he left quickly with the servant.
Marquis Qingyuan stroked his beard, picked up the tea and took a sip in a good mood, and found that the tea tasted much better.
…
The next day.
The scene of red weddings appeared on the streets again, but this time it was the Second Prince who went to the Du Mansion to propose marriage.
When colleagues learned that the wedding date of the second prince and the third prince had been set, they all congratulated Lord Du and Marquis Qingyuan.
Even though the two of them were reluctant to give up their own delicious cabbage, they had to reply that they would come to the wedding when the time came.
As the wedding date of the second prince and the third prince approached, the envoys of the two countries returned to their respective countries.
The Princess's Mansion of Li Country at this time.
The princess was holding a man who had a lot of powder on his face and looked particularly delicate. On her right sat a man with a dark face and a more masculine appearance.
This man was Prince Duan who had restored his appearance. He frowned slightly, smelling the perfume on the delicate man beside him, his stomach churning.
Although he came to Li Country last year, he still hasn't been able to adapt to the country's customs.
A man must not only be gentle and virtuous, but also be able to make his wife happy. He cannot even show his face when going out and can only walk in small steps.
If the Qiang Kingdom had not been destroyed by the current Khan and had not been of little use, he would have left this damn place long ago.
"Did that bitch Feng Hongyu do as I asked?"
Feng Qingqing played with the hair of the man in her arms and glanced at the person below.
The people below recounted what happened in Tianqi, and Feng Qingqing above pushed the man in her arms away and slammed the table.
"You've grown so powerful that you dare to disobey me, and you even speak so righteously."
Feng Hongyu, the soft persimmon, became tough after going to Tianqi.
The man was pushed to the ground and cried out, "Madam, you hurt me."
"You guys get out of here too."
After sending away the frightened people below, Feng Qingqing didn't even bother to look at the aggrieved man on the ground, and turned to look at Prince Duan.
"It seems you don't know much about the Tianqi Imperial Family. I thought I had found a treasure, but it turned out to be a useless thing."
Prince Duan was displeased, but smiled as he said, "Please calm down, Princess. It would be better if Feng Hongyu chose His Royal Highness. She has such a weak personality, and His Royal Highness is so kind and benevolent that he would definitely not be on guard against her."
Feng Qingqing thought for a moment, then stood up and lifted Prince Duan's chin. "Although you are a bit old, your face is still presentable. If you could be more obedient."
She paused and glanced at the male lover lying on the ground.
"If you behave like him, I will indulge you."
She kept this man in the mansion just because he looked strong and resolute. She was used to seeing the delicate male favorites in the mansion and wanted to change her taste. However, she didn't expect that this man was too stubborn and didn't know how to show weakness, so she treated him coldly.
After being cold for a while, this guy has become a little more obedient, but she is still not satisfied.
Prince Duan concealed the disgust in his eyes.
If I want to be more obedient like this person, does that mean I have to put on makeup, learn how to dress up and embroider every day?
He can't do it even if you beat him to death.
"Why? Don't want to?"
Feng Qingqing pinched his chin heavily, "Since you don't want to, I will have you locked up in the woodshed again. After all, I don't like having a biting dog around."
Prince Duan, who was called a dog, suppressed his anger and told himself that the person in front of him was stupid. As long as he could please her, he could trick the soldiers of Li Kingdom and attack Tianqi after she ascended the throne.
"You have to give me some time, don't you?"
"Isn't the time I give you enough?"
Feng Qingqing snorted coldly, "If it weren't for your face, do you think you could still be alive today?"
"Think about it yourself."
Feng Qingqing stood up and returned to the study. Thinking of what Prince Duan had just said, she called out her secret guards in a deep voice.
"Send a gift to Feng Hongyu."
