Chapter 408 He is so weak
"What?! The emperor gave Liang Yuhua to Lu Jiangnian?!"
The teacup in Sun Huanzhi's hand slammed to the ground with a "bang", and he was unaware that the scalding tea splashed on his brocade boots.
He grabbed the messenger by the collar and said in a tense voice, "Can you say it again?"
The servant was so frightened that he was trembling. "It is absolutely true! The imperial decree has been issued. Today, the bridal sedan chair of the Lu Mansion will carry Miss Liang to marry."
Sun Haining was filled with righteous indignation: "This is simply nonsense, the emperor cannot..."
Madam Sun immediately stopped him: "Haining, shut up."
Sun Huanzhi let go of the servant's hand, staggered back two steps, and the color drained from his handsome face.
How is this possible? !
Lu Jiangnian and Yuan Wanru are deeply in love, and as bystanders, they can all see it clearly.
Why would the emperor suddenly issue such an absurd decree?
Liang Yuhua and Lu Jiangnian have nothing in common at all, so why were they forced together?
Yuan Wanru's bright and flamboyant face suddenly appeared in front of his eyes - she was always smiling, her almond-shaped eyes were filled with stars, and even her appearance when she was angry was lively and vivid.
But now......
Thinking that she might be crying alone with red eyes at this moment, Sun Huanzhi felt as if he was stabbed in the chest, and the pain made his breathing tremble.
"Prepare the horses!"
He suddenly turned around and rushed out, "I want to go to the Liang family!"
"Huanzhi!" Madam Sun frowned and stopped him immediately. "Now is the time when the situation is at its peak. You have done your best for the Liang family. You cannot meddle in other people's affairs any more."
"Mom, this is not a trivial matter!"
Sun Huanzhi's eyes were filled with a frightening depth. "Have you forgotten that when Haining was in danger, she risked her life to go to Ziyun Temple alone?"
"I'm going to ask Liang Nian what happened when the Liang family entered the palace!"
He gritted his teeth and said, "If they interfere in order to protect themselves, I..."
When Mrs. Sun saw him like this, her heart was filled with turmoil.
If it was out of kindness for Lady Lu, why would he be so emotionally revealing?
This anxious look seems to be for the person you love...
No.
Madam Sun denied it in her heart, but when she looked down, she saw Sun Huanzhi's clenched fist, with veins bulging.
She no longer felt happy.
"I have not forgotten the kindness of Madam Lu, but we have no relationship with the Lu family, and we have even less contact with the Liang family. In what capacity do you intervene in this matter?"
"Besides, the imperial decree has been issued and it is hard to reverse it. Even if you go and find out, what can you do?"
"Are you going to protest in the palace on behalf of Prince Lu?"
Sun Huanzhi felt suffocated.
He didn't know what to do right now, but he couldn't just sit there and do nothing.
Sun Haining also had an angry look on his face: "Don't talk about my brother, I can't stand it anymore, I'm going to the palace to find the Queen Mother..."
Madam Sun slammed the table and said, "Wake up, all of you."
She was rarely so furious. Sun Huanzhi and Sun Haining were both shocked by her.
Madam Sun said sternly, "Without my permission, you are not allowed to intervene in this matter. Don't you have any idea of the Crown Prince's current situation?"
"Our Sun family has a close relationship with the prince. For the prince, we have to endure anything."
She stared at Sun Huanzhi: "Put away all those thoughts of yours, do you hear me?"
Sun Huanzhi's body stiffened, then he lowered his head, feeling that his mother had seen something.
Of course he knew that what his mother said made sense, but...
Alas, people are always unable to control themselves.
-
On the other side, the fifth prince Murong Jun, who received the news, was even more furious.
"Bang--!"
A white porcelain wine jug hit the vermilion lacquered corridor column hard, and the broken porcelain mixed with wine splashed everywhere, frightening the servants in the yard so much that they knelt on the ground and trembled.
"Lu Jiangnian! How dare he!"
Murong Jun's eyes were red, and he overturned the whole rosewood table, smashing the delicacies all over the floor. "Liang Yuhua is the one I like, why did my father give her to him?!"
"Your Highness, please calm down!" The personal eunuch rushed over and hugged his legs, "This is a marriage granted by the emperor. You are..."
"Get lost!"
Murong Jun kicked the eunuch away, pulled out the sword hanging on the wall and rushed out, "I will go to the Liang family now and take the person back to the mansion. I don't believe that Lu Jiangnian dares to take the person from me!"
"Your Highness, you can't do that!"
The head guard knelt in front of the door and said, "The Queen has ordered that you are not allowed to step out of the palace."
"Mother?"
Murong Jun suddenly laughed crazily, the tip of his sword pointed directly at the guard's throat, "She knew exactly what I was thinking, but she refused to help me, which led to the current situation. Now she wants to stop me?"
"Get out of here! I'll kill anyone who dares to stop me!"
"Your Highness, I am sorry."
Suddenly, a figure jumped out and quickly touched Murong Jun's acupoint, and Murong Jun immediately became unable to move.
Murong Jun looked at the newcomer sinisterly. The old eunuch beside Madam Zhaohua was withdrawing his hand and said expressionlessly, "The Queen said that if Your Highness insists on making trouble, let this old servant do it."
"Untie me immediately, otherwise, I will kill you."
Murong Jun roared, completely losing his mind.
The old eunuch remained calm and said, "I only listen to your majesty. If your majesty wants me to die, I will not say a word."
"Come here, please ask His Highness to return to the house."
Murong Jun was carried back to the room by two guards. He shouted, "Let me go. You guys manipulated me. I will never let you go."
"If Your Highness behaves well, Miss Liang will be fine." The old eunuch walked up to him and said meaningfully, "When Your Highness has power in the future, you will be able to snatch her back."
He picked up the teacup and was about to feed Murong Jun tea. "If Your Highness does something reckless, then the Queen cannot guarantee that Miss Liang will not die soon."
Murong Jun looked at him blankly. Was his mother threatening him with Liang Yuhua's life?
He knew that his mother had some useful people around her, such as the inconspicuous old eunuch in front of him, who had unfathomable martial arts skills.
If his mother really wants to kill Liang Yuhua, can he save her life?
At this moment, Murong Jun realized that he had always thought that everything belonging to his mother was his.
Turns out, that’s not the case.
When he didn't listen to his mother's orders and when his mother didn't support his decision, he was so weak that he even had to give up the girl he loved so much!
Thinking of this, he suddenly felt bored and fell silent, as if his soul had been taken away.
-
The entire Liang Mansion was in deathly silence.
Liang Yuhua sat in her boudoir, holding the wedding dress tightly with her fingertips.
She had reached marriageable age, and this wedding dress was embroidered by her own hands.
However, at the beginning of the year, her brother told her that he would not let her see a date this year and would keep her for another year.
Liang Yuhua was not in a hurry. To be honest, she was not really looking forward to getting married.
Now, seeing her mother find this set of clothes, her heart was in a knot and she almost couldn't breathe.
Mrs. Liang Er saw her like this, her heart ached, "Yuhua..."
After shouting two words, she was choked with sobs and couldn't speak.
After returning from the palace, Liang Yuhua was like an exquisite puppet. No matter how Liang Shangde beat his chest and stamped his feet, no matter how Mrs. Liang cried and wailed, or how Liang Nian questioned her, she just remained silent.
"Rain Flower..."
Liang Nian grabbed his sister's shoulders and asked in a trembling voice, "...Did I... threaten you?"
