Chapter 130 Respective Reactions
Prince Qi's Palace.
The news of the arranged marriage spread from the front study to the backyard.
Concubine Feng was so shocked that she had to ask several times before she understood.
That is, there was no one else in the room, so she threw the teapot to the ground, breaking it into pieces...
The noise startled her and she sat down in a daze. How come she hadn't received any information about it beforehand?
A commoner woman becomes a princess?
Why?
If the prince was unwilling, the emperor would not issue this decree, but why would he be willing?
What's the difference between choosing such a princess and making herself the queen?!
In the distance, the sound of children's laughter can be heard faintly. Is it Shao Ge'er?
There is no difference...
In his heart, I am not even a part of his mind.
Not to mention his only son!
She was so heartbroken that she couldn't breathe, and her tears flowed uncontrollably...
Would you rather promote an unrelated commoner than give Shao Ge'er a legitimate status?
Why?! She grabbed her collar and took a deep breath...
Why do you treat us mother and son like this? Haven’t I done enough or well enough over the years?
At that moment, she forgot all her gratitude, thanks, love, desire and respect for the prince.
Wipe your eyes, Feng Li Niang, don't panic...
He whispered to someone to clean up the debris in the room, and sent someone out to get information.
Over the years, she has been responsible for key positions in the backyard. She also has reliable staff outside and has maintained a few good girlfriends.
After a while, news started to arrive, but not much.
If it weren't for the arranged marriage, it would have been difficult to find out about the Mohist school in the capital.
"I heard that this Miss Mo fell down the stairs while she was offering incense with her mother, and the prince happened to pass by and saved her. They had physical contact, so..."
Concubine Feng found it funny. Is this a reason? You must be kidding!
"I went to see the courtyard of the Mo family. Oh, it can be said to be shabby, crooked and irregular. The Mo family is a family of scholars! But the girls are not famous. Moreover, the girl's maternal family is surnamed Wang. They used to be farmers, but now they are merchants. They are only wealthy, but not nouveau riche!"
"She has an older sister who got engaged to a nice man a few days ago!"
Well, not the eldest daughter yet.
Concubine Feng listened silently and analyzed the news: the Mohist family is not even as good as her original family.
The main branch of the Feng family has produced a crown princess!
My cousin is your eldest sister-in-law, and I am your princess. Your eldest son is the legitimate son.
Isn't this a good idea, both morally and logically?
If I really marry a lady from a wealthy family, I will be sad and my life will be troublesome, but at least I can think it through.
Who made me have no one to support me?
But what is this?
She can't do anything and has done nothing, but just sits at the top and asks me to bow to her?
How embarrassing!
At this time, news about Mother Song also came.
"My queen, I finally got some information. It turns out that Madam Zhao was busy with this matter a few days ago!" Mother Song was mysterious and angry.
Concubine Feng calmed down...her eyebrows raised, her eyes straightened, her aura was domineering and calm.
"Go on!"
"You know that our prince saved this future princess, right?"
"How could you not know this?" The tone was contemptuous. What kind of shameless bitch must she be to throw herself on a man!
"The prince rescued her, and within a few days of returning, he sent Aunt Zhao to the Mo family to teach Miss Mo the rules of entering the palace. On the day she entered the palace, it was Aunt Zhao who brought her there! The last time Concubine Tian came back from the palace, she said she saw Aunt Zhao bringing a girl, so she must be going to see the Empress!"
Mother Song's tone was also fierce. She also hoped that Concubine Feng could become the master's wife! Wouldn't her life be better then?
Concubine Feng narrowed her eyes. So you are hiding this from me!
But she didn’t think about it: Why would they hide it from you...they never thought about you!
She closed her eyes: That's right! It must be the credit of Aunt Zhao that a commoner girl could enter the palace without being rude.
Zhao Hui, why do you treat me like this?
Are you really not afraid of offending me and getting into trouble?
…
The news of the arranged marriage was also known to Princess Fengcheng.
The position that he had been planning for his granddaughter was lost, and he was anxious and angry, and suddenly fell ill again.
Although her hints were rejected by Li Jing before, she did not give up.
When the Marquis of Jing'an's Mansion met with misfortune, she was in a hurry to break off the engagement, with her eyes on the position of Princess of Qi.
There are so many things going on between her family and the King of Qi!
The granddaughter is definitely the best candidate for the princess!
These days, she has been maintaining the relationship. She asked the emperor, but he was a little unsure about the King of Qi and did not respond. But she thought that the possibility of success was still quite high!
But he didn't expect that he would give her to a commoner girl whose identity he couldn't find out after asking around for a long time.
The marriage has already been granted. There is no point in asking about these things. What about my granddaughter?
It just so happened that the grandson of the family came back from the Western Suburbs Camp and mentioned that the children of the Liang family also went to the Western Suburbs Camp for training. Among the few people, there was one named Liang You, who was quite talented in both literature and martial arts. It was said that the Marquis's wife valued him very much.
After the marriage was broken off, the old princess really didn't pay much attention to this heirless marquisate.
Now it seems that he wants his son to inherit the title?
Since it doesn't work out with the King of Qi... I might as well go back to the Marquis' Mansion.
Although he was only an adopted son, he had soldiers and property, and he could live a good life.
So, she sent her eldest daughter-in-law to the Marquis of Jing'an's Mansion to test the waters, hoping to continue the marriage between the two families with the future Marquis.
Of course, Lady Jing'an was not happy!
After the death of her husband and son, her family quickly distanced themselves from the matter without any regard for her feelings at the time.
Therefore, the Marquis's wife made it clear that the Marquis's Mansion could not take care of these things at the moment. Besides, those who might inherit the title in the future might have already married. We couldn't delay Princess Fengcheng's granddaughter...
As a result, the person who came tactfully stated: Although the Marquis's plan to establish a son to inherit the title and continue the family business is a good idea, it will take opportunity for the emperor to approve it. If someone writes a letter and allows the emperor to seize power, it will not be easy...
But if the marriage between the two families can be continued, the eldest princess will do her utmost to ensure that the title is realized.
This combination of soft and hard tactics made the Marquis' wife very angry: this family is so cold-hearted and insidious.
Hence, a more explicit refusal.
However, her refusal did not prevent the Grand Princess from doing so.
The old lady wrote a letter directly to the emperor, complaining and begging.
For the sake of the old lady, the emperor promised: when the marquis's mansion applies for the title in the future, if the inheritor is unmarried, the emperor will grant him a marriage according to his decree.
Of course, the Marquis’ wife and Liang You didn’t know this.
Liang You just came back from the western suburbs and brought some venison.
His father likes this the most, so he sends it home on the way.
As a result, when his parents saw him, they hesitated to speak...
Even when asked, he refused to say.
Finally, it was his sister Liang Xin who pulled him aside and said, "Brother, you may not know yet, but the Emperor has granted Sister Mo Yi a marriage!"
Liang You didn't understand. Seeing his questioning expression, Mrs. Liang sighed and said, "The emperor has issued an order to give Mo Yi to His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi as his principal wife."
"The Emperor granted the marriage? The Prince of Qi's principal wife? How is this possible?"
"Alas! You don't know yet that the one who saved Mo Yi in Dajue Temple was the prince. Maybe it's because of this reason..."
The man in the cotton robe appeared in Liang You's mind, and he felt that he had an extraordinary demeanor...
It turned out to be the King of Qi...
Mo Yi could marry such a husband... His heart suddenly felt extremely sad, and he turned around and hurried back to the Marquis' Mansion.
Seeing his anxious look, the Marquis's wife also sighed.
"Have you heard?"
Liang You felt his heart suddenly empty, his eyes turned red, and he sat down blankly, "Is this true?"
"Prince Qi is the legitimate son of the Emperor's first wife, Empress Huiren. When the accident happened that year, you were still young, so I'm afraid you didn't know..."
Mrs. Hou was nervous and sad when she thought of the disaster that happened that year. She only told Liang You what she could.
Liang You really didn't know any of this, but just listening to it made him feel terrified.
"Liang You, the so-called responsibility of saving Mo Yi and marrying her is just an excuse. I don't know the original intention of His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi. But in the royal family, nothing is simple! For Mo Yi... this marriage has an uncertain future! This is not a simple love affair, so don't be too sad. We have to take things one step at a time in the future!"
If Liang You was heartbroken when he first found out, now he was worried about Mo Yi again...
Alas, Liang You is a good man, I am the stepmother...
