After Gu Yunshu counted the twenty-eight loads of betrothal gifts sent by Dongfang Seal, she gave a few words to Gu's father and rushed to a two-story house in the southwest of the city with Nan Yin.
Not long after Gu Yunshu entered the house, the Shangguan Yu brothers rushed over.
"Your Highness, Crown Prince Yu, Your Highness, Ninth Prince, this is a small gift I prepared for Your Highness, Crown Prince Yi. I hope you will accept it."
Ten loads of carefully prepared betrothal gifts, is this what you call a small thought?
The Gu family is worthy of being the richest family in Beijing!
Shangguan Yu smiled and said, "Your Highness, I heard that Prince Dehe brought a matchmaker to propose marriage?"
Gu Yunshu smiled, "Your Highness Crown Prince Yu is quite well-informed."
Shangguan Jinnian: "It's all spreading in the capital. It's hard for us not to know. It won't be long before you become the prince's consort. Then we will be relatives. Prince Yi is my eldest nephew, and the prince is his uncle. We are peers, right, Sister Yunshu?"
Gu Yunshu smiled and nodded, "Yes, Jinnian, I am your sister."
"Brother, call me sister."
"It's my sister."
"Yes, sister."
Shangguan Yu held his face in his hands and said, "Look at how old I am now. Can I be your sister Yunshu's younger brother?"
Shangguan Jinnian was speechless for a moment. Why was he born so late?
Even though his sister was reborn, he was still destined to be her younger brother!
I want to cry!
"Okay, big brother, then Sister Yunshu will suffer a little and let you be the big brother."
Shangguan Yu raised the corners of his lips to the sky and asked shamelessly, "Sister Yunshu, what do you say? Do you want this prince to be your big brother?"
Gu Yunshu looked at him with a half-smile, "It is my honor to have Prince Yu condescend to be my elder brother. Brother Prince, you must support me in the future."
Shangguan Yu was in a good mood. "Since you call me brother, I will naturally support you. If anyone dares to disrespect you in the future, it is disrespecting me..."
Nan Yin and others were overjoyed, their young lady had finally made it!
Not only will she become a prince's consort, but today she will also become the younger sister of Crown Princess Dong Junyu. Wouldn't it be true that no one in the capital would dare to mess with her young lady in the future?
Then they had a good life.
"Brother Crown Prince, Jinnian, it's getting late, please move these away quickly."
After returning to the Royal West Garden, Emperor Qianyuan arranged for Li Haiying to deliver the betrothal gifts prepared by Emperor Qianyuan, which weighed a total of twenty loads.
Emperor Qianyuan originally wanted to prepare thirty-eight copies at once, obviously intending to compete with the Eastern Seal.
Empress Dowager Du was forcibly awakened and learned about this. She reduced the number of people carrying the remains to eighteen and arranged for Du Yu to be quietly carried into the Saint King's Palace.
Yu'er cannot become the emperor, but as long as she is still alive, she will do her best to give Yu'er money.
"Mother, this is the Crown Prince's betrothal proposal. It cannot be compared with Feng Yulin's betrothal proposal."
Half an incense stick of time was almost up, and Empress Dowager Du's eyelids were getting heavier. She forced herself to say, "Adding in what the Dongjun royal family has prepared, it's enough to surpass Feng Yulin..."
Before she could finish her words, Empress Dowager Du fell asleep.
Li Haiying was shocked when he saw the Shangguan Yu brothers unloading ten loads of betrothal gifts. Together with the betrothal gifts prepared by the emperor and Shangguan Lan, the total number was forty-eight loads!
"Eunuch Ying, we will accompany Ah Yi to the Xiao Mansion to propose marriage tomorrow, so we won't keep you here. Please return and report."
"Your Highness, the Emperor invites you to the palace. He has something important to discuss with you."
Shangguan Yu saw that it was getting late and didn't want to go. "Is it important? Do I have to go?"
"Yes."
"Xiaojiu, big brother will go over and help you count these betrothal gifts first."
"good."
＊
"Emperor Qianyuan, what urgent matter do you need to tell me so urgently?"
"Feng Yulin sent 28 pieces of betrothal gifts to the Gu Mansion to propose marriage. Have you heard about it?"
Shangguan Yu was shocked. Could it be that he knew that Gu Yunshu was from Ruian?
"Oh, I heard about it. This prince is quite surprised. I thought Feng Yulin would be single for the rest of his life. He is already this old and he should have someone who understands his feelings and keeps him company."
Emperor Qianyuan saw that Shangguan Yu did not realize the seriousness of the problem and said anxiously: "Feng Yulin cannot get married. You must find a way to ruin this marriage!"
Shangguan Yu was surprised. "Are you kidding me? It's rare for Feng Yulin to get married, and you actually let me ruin it. Are you unwilling to see him happy and want him to live out his life in loneliness?"
Shangguan Yu didn't expect Emperor Qianyuan to be so vicious!
"Brother-in-law, shouldn't Feng Yulin live alone for the rest of his life? Didn't he claim to love Rui'an? How could he marry someone else?"
Shangguan Yu felt relieved. It seemed that he had not met Gu Yunshu yet and did not know that she looked so much like Rui'an.
"Your Highness doesn't like what you said. Why can't Feng Yulin marry someone else? If Rui'an knew, she would like to see Feng Yulin marry and have children. She wants him to have someone by his side and doesn't want to see Feng Yulin alone for the rest of his life."
Emperor Qianyuan was anxious. He could have issued an imperial decree to grant Gu Yunshu marriage and let her enter the palace.
But by doing so, he would abdicate even faster.
"Feng Yulin can't get married, let alone have children! You have to know that the old virtuous king doesn't have the will of the late emperor. If he had a son, wouldn't he want to take the throne back from Ayi for his own son? And if that day really comes, and Ayi is a filial child, wouldn't he hand over the throne of Beiyi to him?"
Tsk!
This guy only thinks about profit!
"Don't worry about this. If Feng Yulin wants it, it depends on whether His Highness agrees! Don't forget about Xirong... If Feng Yulin really wants to ascend to a high position, why would he bother to plan for Ayi?"
"Feng Yulin doesn't have this intention. What if his son has ambitions in the future?"
Feng Yulin’s son is also Ayi’s brother!
"He wouldn't have such ambition, nor would he dare to have such ambition! Don't forget that Ayi's current power will also belong to the young prince in the future. Your worries are unnecessary! In fact, you can't bear to see Feng Yulin live a happy life. Okay, Your Highness is going back. I have to go to the Xiao family to propose marriage tomorrow."
Shangguan Yu walked out of the imperial study and turned back, "This prince advises you not to interfere in Feng Yulin's marriage. If you provoke him, he will try to seize your throne. Ayi cannot ascend to a high position, and this prince will not let you go!"
"Bang!" Emperor Qianyuan was furious.
"Your Majesty, please calm down." Li Haiying comforted Emperor Qianyuan and ordered the palace servants to come in and clean up the broken teacups on the ground.
"It's not worth getting yourself hurt by being angry. Feng Yulin wants to marry the girl from the Gu family. The whole capital knows about it now. It's too early for them to get married. Even if they do get married, there's no guarantee that the girl from the Gu family will give birth to a child for him."
Emperor Qianyuan narrowed his eyes, "You mean..."
Li Haiying nodded.
Emperor Qianyuan thought for a moment and said, "Go ahead and do it, but keep it secret."
"yes."
Shangguan Yu was worried that Emperor Qianyuan would not give up and might do something to ruin Rui'an and Yulin's marriage. "Li Lian, arrange for someone to secretly protect Sister Yunshu until she and Feng Yulin can successfully marry."
"Yes, Your Highness."
