Chapter 33: Beating the Imperial Observatory



"Your Majesty is right. I will follow your father's instructions." The eldest prince saluted Guo Xiner first, and then saluted Xiao Hanyi.

This time, he will not take the path of rebellion.

Xiao Hanyi thought for a while and said, "Well, you are grown up now, it's time to choose a wife."

[In the Tyrant Daddy's mind, the Crown Prince is the eldest brother, but Liu Qian is the heroine, the future queen. Why is she marrying the second brother this time? Has the plot changed? Will the second brother inherit the throne?]

What?

kindness?

Xiao Hanyi and the eldest prince were both stunned, the eldest prince in particular being extremely shocked. Liu Qian? Wasn't she the concubine the second prince was going to marry? How could she be the future queen?

The eldest prince's expression remained unchanged, but his heart was in turmoil. He never believed in fate, but the throne was no joke. Coupled with Xiao Jiayun's voice, his thoughts also changed. In this kind of thing, it is better to believe it than not.

"Your son will take his leave," the eldest prince saw that Xiao Hanyi was also tired.

The eldest prince left the Weiyang Palace and called the guards, "Find someone to go to the Imperial Observatory!"

......

Queen Wang and Xiao Hanyi had finalized the matter of the Second Prince marrying Liu Xi. Xiao Hanyi ordered the Imperial Observatory to compare the two people's horoscopes. If they matched, the imperial decree granting the marriage would soon reach the Second Prince's residence.

However, the Imperial Astronomical Observatory reported that Liu Qian's horoscope conflicted with the Second Prince's. If they were forced into a marriage, it would affect the nation's fortunes.

When the second prince heard the news, he rushed into the Imperial Observatory with his stick and beat up the chief envoy of the Imperial Observatory, Xu Zhiwei. If others had not stopped him, the guy would probably have been beaten to death.

The Second Prince was panting and snorting. Who dared to block his good fortune? But the results of the Imperial Observatory came out. It was like this. The Emperor couldn't justify it. It would affect the country's destiny. He couldn't bear such a big accusation!

I can only ask Queen Wang for help.

He hurried into the Pepper Room and said, "Mother, please make the decision for me."

As he said this, he knelt down and burst into tears. I looked like his father had died. Oh, no, his father was dead, so maybe he was happy.

Queen Wang wondered what was wrong with this child?

"Quick, quick, quick, help him up," Queen Wang ordered the palace maid beside her.

The Second Prince pushed them away, "Go, go, go," and then tearfully complained to Queen Wang, "I finally fell in love with a girl, and I just want to grow old with her. But the Imperial Astronomical Bureau must have taken some wrong approach, deliberately opposing me, saying that our horoscopes are incompatible."

"Your Majesty, the responsibility of the country lies on your shoulders. In the future, you will be responsible for the people of the world. But I am just an insignificant person. In the future, you will just give me a salary. What have I done wrong?"

"Besides, when our Southern Liang prince chooses his principal wife, there has never been a mismatch in horoscopes. I asked others to see it, and they all said it was extremely auspicious."

......

The second prince grumbled a lot, but to sum it up in one sentence, the throne would be passed on to the eldest prince, and he would not compete with the eldest prince for it. He just wanted to live happily with Liu Qian, as their horoscopes were compatible, and the Imperial Observatory was deliberately opposing him.

Queen Wang didn't know the result of the Imperial Observatory yet, but now she understood that someone didn't want him to marry Liu Xi.

Do I need to wonder who this person is?

"Good boy, get up quickly. I know about this and I will take care of it for you," Queen Wang comforted.

She hoped that the second prince would marry Liu Xi and take the position of the principal wife first. If the principal wife had such a good family background, then his concubines would not be much better. Who would be willing to be inferior to a concubine's daughter?

But how can I tell this to the Second Prince? It won’t sound nice.

Queen Wang still chose her words carefully, "You and the eldest prince are both my children. I see you two as the same. The wives I choose for you are all from famous families and are definitely worthy of your status as princes."

"It is said that the Liu family's status is slightly lower."

Queen Wang was still too conservative. Given the Liu family's status, it was already a great honor for Liu Qian to be a concubine of the princes.

The Second Prince was completely confused. What did she mean? She said it directly. What did she mean?

"Well, since you like it, I will naturally fulfill your wish," Queen Wang continued.

What?

kindness?

The second prince felt that he could understand what Queen Wang said, but he really didn't understand it.

Seeing that he was still stunned, Queen Wang simply said, "Your mother will naturally have someone in mind for your main wife."

oh......

So that's what happened. It was Concubine Heng who was causing trouble.

She must want to find him a daughter of a noble family to help him in his battle for the throne. The second prince slapped his forehead, wondering why he hadn't thought of it earlier.

"I'll take my leave."

The second prince saluted, turned around and strode away.

Queen Wang was so angry that she wanted to laugh. She looked at Matron Liu and asked, "Does he know the rules of this palace? I haven't let him leave yet, alas."

"Queen, this is just perfect. The eldest prince is steady and has the demeanor of a ruler, while the second prince is a little more outrageous. Isn't this a good thing?" Nanny Liu handed a cup of tea to Queen Wang and advised with a smile.

......

"What?" Concubine Heng stood up suddenly and looked at the Second Prince. "The Queen wants you to marry the daughter of a court official as your principal wife?"

She was so bored in her own palace that she hadn't heard anything about Liu Qian. How could Queen Wang have chosen a concubine for the Second Prince without her knowledge? And she was from a humble family.

Now after hearing what the second prince said, she was so angry that stars appeared in her eyes, "Wang Xueyi, I will never let you go."

Wang Xue is also the maiden name of Queen Wang. She was really furious this time. That bitch took advantage of her house arrest and did such bad things behind her back.

"Child, don't worry. I am still alive. As long as I am alive, that bitch can't manipulate you so easily," Concubine Heng said angrily.

Oh, my dear, I want to marry Liu Xi!

The second prince roared in his heart, he had been talking for so long but still didn't understand.

The nanny beside Concubine Heng stepped forward and whispered to her, "Your Majesty, the Second Prince just said that he wanted to marry Liu Qian, but the Imperial Astronomical Observatory compared their horoscopes and found that they were incompatible. The Second Prince thought it was you who did it."

What?

Concubine Heng is running out of ideas. Is the child okay?

The second prince nodded vigorously, that's what he meant!

"No," Concubine Heng slammed the table and said, "Your wife must be from a famous family."

"No, I want Liu Qian and will never marry anyone else," the second prince said as he sat down with a firm grip.

But he couldn't give a reason. He couldn't say that Liu Xi was destined to be the queen, and whoever married her would become the crown prince.

He made up his mind and said that he fell in love with Liu Qian at first sight, and that he would be in love with her forever.

Concubine Heng felt a little dizzy after being bumped into, so she sat down to clear her head.

"It is the right time now. The crown prince has not been appointed yet. Do you think the prince's wife only talks about the feelings of children?" Concubine Heng advised bitterly.

Her son looked quite smart, so how could he be so confused about such a thing? If he insisted on having his own way, then Liu Xi would have to find a way to deal with it.

There was a hint of cruelty in Concubine Heng's eyes.

The second prince did not notice these changes in her, and only stated firmly, "I will marry no one but her. If the Imperial Observatory dares to stop my marriage, I will kill that Xu Zhiwei."

Concubine Heng was so angry that her nose was smoking.

If the Second Prince doesn't listen to her, then Liu Qian can't be kept.
