Chapter 453: Choosing a Concubine



"Okay, since you think three are too many, you can just marry one first." Emperor Wenyuan compromised.

Anyway, any of the three families of Wen, Wu and Ming will do. The reason why he will let the eldest daughter of the Wen family be the princess is because the head of the Wen family is more sensible, and the women of the Wen family are also famous for being virtuous and sensible.

Mo Junran glanced at Emperor Wenyuan: "Don't worry, I will marry her eventually."

"Have you chosen one yet?"

"not yet!"

"Then let's choose the Wen family." Emperor Wenyuan said with finality.

Mo Junran shook his head: "Royal brother, you promised that I can make my own choice. If you go back on your word, then I can only go back to the 'temple'."

"Okay, okay, it's your choice."

Emperor Wenyuan seemed to be infinitely tolerant at this time.

The requirement for Mo Junran was so low that he just wanted to marry the princess.

Of course, this is based on the premise that he thought Mo Junran was willing to marry one of the three families he had chosen.

"But you must do it as soon as possible, otherwise I will have no choice but to choose for you."

When Mo Junran heard this, he walked forward and sat on a chair beside him. His handsome face slowly curved up.

Because there is no disguise.

When Emperor Wenyuan saw him smile, his scalp tingled for a moment: "Why are you smiling like that?"

At this time, Mo Junran was very clear about the fact that he was scary just by smiling at him.

As a result, he actually liked to 'laugh'.

He said seriously, "Brother Emperor, I want to get married anyway, so why don't you give me an imperial edict first?"

"Give you an imperial edict?" Emperor Wenyuan frowned slightly.

It's not that he was afraid that he would usurp the throne. After all, this position was originally given to him. But Emperor Wenyuan didn't understand what he wanted the imperial edict for.

"Wait until I have made my choice and then issue an order directly. It will be faster!" Mo Junran rarely explained.

Emperor Wenyuan said, "Don't bother. Just tell me which one you choose, and I'll send someone to issue an order right away."

“This is different!”

Mo Junran subconsciously reached out to smooth the hair on his forehead, but found nothing.

Only then did he realize that he was no longer in Qi State, pretending to be one. He calmly withdrew his hand and said, "After I choose the person I want to marry, I will write her name on the list myself. This way, I won't have to trouble my brother by coming to the palace again."

Emperor Wenyuan looked at Mo Junran.

I always felt that something was strange about him after he came back from Yujiang this time.

However, although Emperor Wenyuan found Mo Junran's request strange, he finally agreed. He asked Eunuch Li to prepare pen and ink, and personally wrote an imperial edict granting the marriage, but left the prefix blank.

"Aran, remember, any of the three families, Wen, Wu, and Ming, will do."

"This is the most advantageous thing for you right now. When you ascend the throne in the future, you won't be greatly hindered..."

"Um."

When leaving, Eunuch Li personally saw Mo Junran to the door.

"Your Majesty, His Majesty has asked me to remind you once again that you must seize the time. This banquet hosted by the Wen family is a great opportunity..."

"What good opportunity?"

As soon as I reached the door, I saw Princess Yu standing at the door at some point, as if she had arrived earlier.

Eunuch Li took one look and immediately bowed, "Greetings, Her Royal Highness the Princess."

"Eunuch Li, there's no need to be so polite. This princess has just come from my mother's palace and wants to see the emperor." Princess Yuchang said with a gentle smile, her whole body exuding a gentle aura.

"Your Highness, please wait a moment. I will report to His Majesty right away."

Eunuch Li entered the hall quickly.

Princess Yu Chang then set her eyes on Mo Junran, her eyes gentle: "What interesting things did Ah Ran just say to Eunuch Li? I seemed to hear you mention that you were going to the Wen family's banquet?"

Mo Junran bowed and said distantly, "Yes, Princess."

"You are so polite and distant to the Imperial Sister." Princess Yuchang said helplessly, but her tone seemed to be doting.

It's like watching a naughty younger brother!

"My sister has also heard about the Wen family's affairs. The emperor asked you to attend the Wen family banquet. I guess he wants you to find a princess as soon as possible."

"Speaking of this, I'd like to ask, A'ran, do you have someone you like? If so, don't be shy. I can speak to the Emperor on your behalf. If not, I do have a very good candidate."

"Thank you, Princess, but I don't need it for the time being."

"How can this not be necessary!"

Princess Yuchang stepped forward and patted Mo Junran on the shoulder like an elder. "Aran, marrying a princess is no small matter. You must be careful. Don't worry, the girl that the emperor has chosen for you is Yang Zhao, the legitimate daughter of the Zhenbei Marquis's mansion. That girl is very good."

Mo Junran wanted to push Princess Yu's hand away but stopped.

Princess Yuchang smiled even more tenderly upon seeing this, and whispered, "I heard that before you left for Yujiang, you sent quite a few gifts to the Zhenbei Marquisate, and Yang Zhao also sent quite a few snacks back to you."

Mo Junran frowned slightly.

Princess Yu patted his shoulder and soothed him, "Don't be nervous. My sister and Yang Zhao's mother are close friends. Over the years, my sister's health has not been good, so she hasn't been able to take good care of Yang Zhao. Fortunately, she is also smart, so she didn't suffer too much."

At this point, she smiled and said, "The Queen Mother has already annulled her marriage with the Shen family, so she is also qualified to be your princess. If you like, I will speak to the emperor on your behalf."

Mo Junran finally took a step back at this time, avoiding Princess Yuchang's hand on his shoulder.

"Don't bother the princess with this matter."

After saying that, Mo Junran bowed and walked past Princess Yuchang and left.

Princess Yuchang did not stop him, but just smiled and watched his back. After he disappeared, she slowly took out a handkerchief from under her sleeve and gently wiped the hand that had just patted Mo Junran's shoulder.

Aunt Hua turned around and gave her a look.

Mingyu immediately stepped forward and took the handkerchief that Princess Yu had just used to wipe her hands. She carefully put the handkerchief away, but a hint of fear could not be suppressed and she did not dare to show it. She could only try to quietly wrap the handkerchief with layers of handkerchiefs.

"Your Highness, His Majesty invites you."

At this time, Eunuch Li came out of the hall with a respectful smile on his face.

"Thank you."

Princess Yuchang then smiled and followed Eunuch Li into the palace, where she met Emperor Wenyuan who was still dealing with the memorial.

At this time, Emperor Wenyuan was so thin that he looked unrecognizable.

However, when Emperor Wenyuan saw Princess Yuchang, he stopped and smiled, asking Eunuch Li to give Princess Yuchang a seat. "Imperial sister, I heard that you have been feeling unwell recently. Are you feeling better now?"

"I'm fine."

Princess Yuchang, however, showed concern and asked, "Your Majesty, please don't overwork yourself. You should rest when you need to. Look at you. It's only been a short time, and you've lost a lot of weight. You are the ruler of a country, you must take care of your health."
