Chapter 520 The Song Family Girl Cannot Be the Main Wife
Mo Yingxue followed Emperor Xuande out, muttering all the way, "Father, please don't get angry. Anger is harmful to your health."
I didn't dare to say a word to persuade him to fulfill his wish.
When it comes to plucking hair from a tiger's butt, you have to know when to stop.
If Tiger is really provoked, she will be the only one to kneel outside the imperial study and reflect on herself today.
How could her legs bear this pain?
Emperor Xuande stopped in front of Mo Jinchuan and asked in a cold voice: "Jinchuan, do you know your mistake?"
Mo Jinchuan said without even raising his head: "Son doesn't know."
If he wasn't reluctant, Emperor Xuande would have kicked him on the shoulder.
What a bastard!
Mo Yingxue was also startled by her fifth brother's words. She quickly patted his back to calm him down and whispered, "Father, my dear son, calm down."
Emperor Xuande's expression suddenly became even darker.
If he wasn't his biological son, just because he handed over the tiger talisman yesterday due to a disagreement, he would have thrown him to the border town and left him to fend for himself.
Looking at Song Yanxi who was kneeling beside him, Emperor Xuande said, "Song family girl, you get up first."
He rarely had the patience to explain, "I am punishing this bastard who disobeyed his father and disrespected his brother. It has nothing to do with you."
Song Yanxi lowered her eyes and stared at the ground, and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, the prince has an old injury on his leg and cannot kneel for long.
I, your humble servant, am willing to take the punishment for you, and kneel until your Majesty calms down."
"You're doing it for him?" Emperor Xuande raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "Do you know how long I made him kneel?"
Mo Yingxue rolled her eyes and said hurriedly, "Sister, please don't be impulsive. Father is going to punish Fifth Brother by making him kneel for three days.
If you kneel for three days, how can you keep your legs? "
Hearing this, Song Yanxi couldn't help but frown.
But she only hesitated for a moment, then said, "I am willing to take the punishment for you, my lord."
Mo Jinchuan said coldly: "This king is unwilling."
Facing his dark eyes filled with anger, Song Yanxi said, "I am a doctor, Your Majesty should listen to me."
Mo Jinchuan frowned, "According to what you said, I am still your fiancé, why don't you listen to me?"
As soon as the words fell, the surroundings seemed to be quiet for a moment.
Song Yanxi felt a heat rising to her cheeks and quickly lowered her head.
How could this person be so shameless?
Not to mention that the imperial decree granting the marriage has not yet been issued, even if the two of them are already engaged, he should not be so presumptuous in front of His Majesty.
Is he really not afraid that His Majesty will arrange a marriage for them each in a fit of rage?
Emperor Xuande was listening from the side with mixed feelings.
Before, they often said that Xiaowu was most similar to him when he was young, but he didn't think much of it.
Looking back now, he is indeed his biological son.
Even this shameless look was very similar to the enthusiasm he had when he proposed to Ah Shu.
If he had been a little more shameless, she would have married someone else long ago and would not have entered the palace as a concubine and accompanied him for twenty years.
It’s a pity... fate plays tricks on us.
Even if God gave him another chance, he would still find a way to bring Ah Shu into the palace as his concubine.
She can only be his woman in this life.
The only difference is that he will no longer silently indulge her ambition like he did in the past, until it grows into a towering tree and even threatens the stability of the country.
Looking at Mo Jinchuan's face that bore some resemblance to his own, Emperor Xuande sighed and said helplessly, "Forget it. I will grant your wish this time."
His gaze fell on Song Yanxi's head, and he reminded her coldly, "Girl, I want you to remember that all of this was earned for you by Xiaowu with half his life.
Do your best in the future, don't let him down, and don't let me down."
Song Yanxi bowed respectfully towards Emperor Xuande and was about to speak when someone spoke first.
Mo Jinchuan said: "Father, when Yan Xi marries into my son's house in the future, she will come to enjoy happiness, not to gain face for anyone."
Before Emperor Xuande lost his temper, he continued, "As a man, if my son is reduced to having his wife work outside to save his reputation, he would rather die at the city gate.
It also saves me from going out and embarrassing my father."
Emperor Xuande snorted coldly, "They chose the city gate on purpose. You're so smart.
If you really don't want to live anymore, just hide somewhere alone and die far away. I can't afford to lose this person."
Mo Jinchuan: "I will follow my father's teachings."
Fearing that he would be pissed to death if he stayed any longer, Emperor Xuande flicked his sleeves and said, "Go away! Return to your Jinwang Mansion and wait for the imperial edict."
Mo Jinchuan said respectfully, "Your Majesty, I thank you for your help."
When his sleeve was gently tugged at, Song Yanxi finally woke up as if from a dream and followed him to thank him.
Your Majesty, do you agree now?
She originally thought that they would have to kneel until sunset at least to gain a little sympathy from him.
After all, he was a king first and a father second.
Seeing his son's little tricks, Emperor Xuande closed his eyes, unable to bear to watch.
This useless thing, I don’t know who he takes after.
Emperor Xuande asked with a dark face: "Why don't you get up quickly? Haven't you had enough of kneeling?"
Mo Jinchuan stood up decisively, reached out to Song Yanxi, and helped her up from the ground.
The movements were quick, as if completely unaffected.
Mo Yingxue was amazed and couldn't help asking, "Fifth brother, the ground is so hard. You've been kneeling for an hour. Don't your legs hurt?"
Mo Jinchuan frowned, "One hour?"
Before Mo Yingxue could speak, Emperor Xuande said coldly, "Dehai, come here."
Dehai hurried forward, smiling apologetically, and said, "Your Majesty, please speak. I am listening."
"You bastard!" Emperor Xuande was furious and pointed at his nose and said, "You old bastard, you have learned to deceive your superiors and deceive your subordinates."
Dehai quickly knelt down and cried out, "Your Majesty, you have misunderstood me. I didn't say anything."
He refused to acknowledge her, but Mo Yingxue had grown up under his care, so naturally he wanted to protect her.
For a time, Emperor Xuande really couldn't punish him.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He said, "Xiao Wu is getting married soon, so don't take your salary for this year. Just consider it a gift to Prince Jin's Mansion."
Dehai's smile widened upon hearing this, and he hurriedly said, "How can this old servant's annual salary be enough for the prince's wedding? It will take at least ten years."
Emperor Xuande glared at him, "You old fox, you're still thinking of currying favor with Xiaowu by taking money from my pocket? You're dreaming.
You've collected a lot of goodies in your private vault over the years. Go back and pick out a box and bring it to the Song family girl to add to her makeup."
Dehai's eyes turned red upon hearing this, and he said excitedly, "Your Majesty is truly embarrassing this old slave."
What qualifications does he have to add to Princess Yong'an's embellishments?
"Okay, stop being sour and take out all the treasures you have hidden away."
Emperor Xuande said, looking at Song Yanxi and said: "Dehai is an old man by my side, and he is also my brother who I have known for many years.
He watched Xiaowu grow up, and adding makeup to your life is a token of his appreciation as an elder."
After hearing what he said, Dehai was so moved that tears welled up in his eyes, but he was afraid that it would affect the atmosphere, so he could only wipe his tears secretly with his sleeves.
Mo Jinchuan blocked Song Yanxi behind him and said, "On behalf of the future princess, I, your son, would like to thank the emperor and eunuch De for their kindness."
Emperor Xuande frowned in displeasure and said quietly, "I only said that I would help you two get married, but I never said that I wanted the girl from the Song family to be my principal wife."
