Chapter 94 The Crown Prince's Concubine
Emperor Ouyang glanced at the people standing below and suddenly laughed: "Accurate." He didn't mind at all that the Yuwen family wanted to be tied to a tree and died. He hoped that when the truth came to light in the future, the Yuwen family would still be so calm.
When they heard the emperor's approval, everyone in the second prince's family burst into laughter.
"Our emperor is wise."
Emperor Ouyang looked at the ministers below with a smile, "Since the second prince has chosen a candidate, does the eldest prince have someone he likes?"
He said it casually, as if the eldest prince was just a passing figure in his heart.
Before anyone from the First Prince's side could come forward, someone from the Second Prince's side immediately stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, the First Prince brought back a woman yesterday. I think she's the one he likes. Furthermore, since he didn't mention that she saved his life, why not grant her the title of First Prince's Consort?"
"Of course, I should repay you with my life-saving grace."
"That's right, the eldest prince should marry this girl."
…
Those people danced very vigorously.
The eldest prince looked around and smiled.
"Your Majesty, I obey you." The eldest prince was very respectful.
But everyone could see the pain of depression he was suffering.
The Second Prince's family was all happy.
The man on the high seat put away the smile on his face and looked intently at the eldest prince below.
He seemed to be thinking, but also seemed unhappy.
After a long silence, the emperor laughed, "Haha, good, she is worthy of being my prince's heir. Okay, I will make this girl the eldest prince's consort."
Even if others don’t know, how could he not know it?
Li'er and the girl from the Xia family are in love with each other, so it would be great if they could be together.
"Our emperor is wise."
Early this morning, the two princes of the Dayan Dynasty finally decided on their princesses.
The imperial edict was conveyed quickly.
When the imperial concubine learned that the eldest prince had married the woman he brought back as his concubine, she couldn't stop smiling.
"Reward, reward, reward them all."
How much help can a common woman bring to him?
She really didn't expect things to go so smoothly, and the two princes' wives were decided in one morning court session.
Her family will definitely put all their efforts on the Second Prince now, bringing him one step closer to the throne.
After the court was dismissed, the Second Emperor and Wen Li left Chaoyang Palace together.
"Brother Emperor, congratulations." The second prince couldn't hide the smile on his face.
There is sarcasm, jealousy, and a hint of pleasure in it.
This time the plan has been successful, and he is the dominant one on the side of his mother's family.
Wen Li glanced at him and smiled knowingly, "Thank you, second brother." I just don't know if you can still smile when you know who I am going to marry.
Besides, he really doesn't care about the power of his mother's family.
One of his girls is worth ten of his.
The imperial edict soon reached the two concubines.
Xia Yutong was speechless.
She just entered the palace yesterday, and her marriage was arranged today.
Haha, it seems that the war between the princes has entered a white-hot stage.
Chunlai looked constipated and asked, "Miss, do we have to come to the palace from now on?" He had no good feelings towards the palace at all.
If it weren't for Master Wenli, my young lady wouldn't need all this vanity.
"It's too early, let's talk about it later." Marriage, haha, she doesn't want to and no one dares to force her.
Also, the royal family was too casual in arranging the marriage. They didn't even ask about her family background before deciding to make her the eldest prince's principal wife.
This shows how unpopular Wen Li was in the palace.
"Pack up and let's go home." We can't stay in the palace anymore.
When Wen Li came back, Xia Yutong had just packed up and was about to leave the palace.
"Are you leaving?" He didn't want to part with her yet.
He walked up to her and held her in his arms. He really didn't want to be separated from her. If possible, he wanted to live with her now.
"There are a lot of things going on in the palace. I have to go back and prepare for my marriage." Xia Yutong said teasingly.
Seeing her like this, Wen Li touched his nose awkwardly. They had thought about this yesterday, but he didn't want to hear her rejection, so he didn't tell her.
Of course, he also has selfish motives.
He was happier than anyone else that the marriage was settled, but if he had proposed marriage himself, he might not have been successful.
"Xiaotong, I'm sorry for not telling you in advance." He said with some guilt in his heart.
He felt really guilty afterwards.
"It's okay." Xia Yutong broke free from his arms and shook her head. "If you don't marry me, who are you going to marry?" she asked jokingly.
"Marry you." Wen Li answered with certainty.
Wen Li finally sent Xia Yutong out of the palace.
There is the Xia Mansion in the imperial city, so there should be a clear way out.
The news that the eldest prince's wife came from the Xia family quickly spread throughout the imperial city.
Of course, it was Wen Li himself who spread this information, and he had to clear his name.
This will prevent those blind men from coming to try to take advantage of my woman.
When Xia Yutong found out, she almost went crazy.
Yuyan didn't dare go again, for fear of being blocked by those ladies.
After Liu'er heard about what happened to her young lady these days, she was filled with fear.
"Miss, you are too bold. How are we going to explain this to the master and the mistress?" Liu'er was very worried.
As soon as Xia Yutong woke up, she heard Liu'er nagging in her ear, "It's okay, I will inform my parents when the time comes. Let's keep it a secret for now." The Xia family cannot be involved in these disputes now.
"Then what should we do? You have received the imperial edict, so how can you not inform your family?" They had some guesses about Master Wen's identity, but nothing was confirmed.
But no one expected that he would be the eldest prince of the current dynasty.
"Don't worry about these for now. How is Yuyan doing recently? And have you found the new store I asked you to find?" She had to get on the right track.
She can't disobey the order.
"Miss." Liu'er was helpless.
"Tell me, have you found a new store?" Xia Yutong didn't want to tell her about Wen Li.
It's not that she is on guard, but she herself is upset.
I have to find something to relieve my blocked mood.
Seeing the young lady's expression change, Liu'er shut up and stopped talking about it. However, she did make some progress on the new store these days.
"Miss, there is a new store, but it is a bit far from our Yuyan and not very easy to manage." Liu'er expressed her concerns.
After listening to Liu'er's words, Xia Yutong pondered for a while.
She shook her head and said, "Forget it. I'll open a wine shop when I have the chance in the future. Now I'll just sell it inside Yuyan." She was very confident that her wine was no worse than the current fermented rice.
"That's fine. I gave some to Mrs. Hu last time, and she has been asking me for more these days." When talking about business, Liu'er's smile became even bigger.
"Oh, I didn't expect that she is also a fellow traveler." Xia Yutong said with a smile.
"Since the ladies like it so much, why don't we prepare some drinks in the backyard later." In the past, there were only snacks, but now we can add wine.
"But Miss, our peach blossom wine production is not large. Isn't it too monotonous to have only one kind of wine?" Liu'er said with some concern.
