Chapter 491 Let’s Make a Deal
Qiao Wanyan said calmly: "It wasn't him. At that time, he probably didn't know the emperor's next decision."
Ziyuan sighed heavily again, looking listless.
We have no idea what's happening outside, and it's really like crying out to heaven and earth for help but no one can help us.
The queen went to the Yangxin Palace and saw He Zhiyu kneeling on the brick floor outside the palace. She felt extremely distressed and annoyed that he did not know the seriousness of the matter.
"What's the point of you kneeling here? Why don't you get up and go back to your East Palace?"
He Zhiyu just stared at the tightly closed palace door and said in a light voice: "Your Highness, I want to ask your father to withdraw his order and grant me marriage."
The Queen's face was gloomy. "You are really crazy! At the beginning, I asked you to marry Qiao Wanyan but you refused, saying that you only treated her as a sister and had no other thoughts. Now you want to marry her, but she is going to marry a foreign prince. Do you know what you are doing?!"
Tsuru Chiyu's eyes were tired and dim. "It's too late. Everything is too late. It's my fault. It's all my fault."
Aunt Xu glanced at the Queen's face and advised gently, "Your Highness, the Emperor's decree to re-appoint you as the Crown Prince has spread everywhere, why do you still have to torment yourself like this? The Queen feels sorry for you, Your Highness should go back and rest."
He Zhiyu said nothing.
The queen was very disappointed with her husband for torturing herself like this for a woman.
She felt that Qiao Wanyan was really good and couldn't find any fault with her no matter how she picked on her.
But she felt that Qiao Wanyan was a disaster for allowing her son to become so crazy and unable to distinguish right from wrong.
At the entrance of the palace, Su Xiao greeted respectfully, "Your Majesty, the Emperor has taken the elixir sent by the alchemist and has gone to bed. Please come back another day."
The Queen said, "Go and have a look. I have something very important to discuss with the Emperor."
Su Xiao said politely, "Your Majesty, the emperor really had gone to bed when I just came out."
The Queen wanted to see the Emperor only because of the Crown Prince's affairs. The Emperor didn't want to pay any attention to her now. Even if the Crown Prince fainted from kneeling, he would not do what he wanted. How could he let the Queen in when he knew what she was doing?
The queen had no choice but to go back, but she saw Concubine Shu at the palace gate.
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. Did you just come out of the Yangxin Palace? Is the Emperor feeling better now? I heard that the Crown Prince made the Emperor sick due to his anger. I am very worried after hearing that."
The Queen scolded, "How dare you speak nonsense in front of me based on hearsay. I see that you are becoming more and more outspoken and you should obey the rules."
Concubine Shu: "Your Majesty, I should accept your teachings, but the Emperor has ordered me to serve you. Should I obey your Majesty's rules here or serve the Emperor? I am stupid, please teach me."
The queen remained calm and asked, "The emperor summoned you?"
Concubine Shu smiled and replied, "That's right."
The Queen: "As a concubine, you should always put the Emperor first. Please go."
Concubine Shu nodded and walked away around her in a haughty manner. She said something to Su Xiao at the entrance of the palace. Then Su Xiao politely made way and asked someone to open the door to let her in.
Before Concubine Shu went in, she turned around and looked towards the palace gate. When she saw the person she wanted to see, she went in in a good mood.
Even if she is old and ugly, can she still compare with me?
Upon seeing this, the Queen turned and left with a gloomy and frightening look on her face.
He wanted to go to Jinxiu Palace to cool down, but the guards outside Jinxiu Palace stopped him.
The emperor ordered them not to let anyone in, as if they did, they would lose their heads. Naturally, they did not dare and could not do so.
The queen returned to the palace angrily, and Kunning Palace was soon in a mess.
The next morning, Chen Che entered the palace.
Jiang Qiyun also wanted to enter the palace, but was stopped by the guards at the palace gate.
The higher-ups have ordered that the young marquis is not allowed to enter the palace.
Whoever lets him in will be punished.
death penalty.
Chen Che went to the Yangxin Palace and saw He Zhiyu.
Although I had heard that he had been kneeling here since yesterday, I was a little surprised that he had been kneeling like this all night.
It's true, I'm at my wit's end.
"Your Highness, kneeling here like this will make the Queen feel distressed. Why bother? It's futile."
He Zhiyu didn't look at him, "You were the one who proposed the marriage to the emperor?"
Shen Che smiled and answered: "It's me."
After he said this, he had no intention of staying any longer and entered the Palace of Tranquil Longevity.
It took about half an incense stick of time for him to come out.
He Zhiyu said in a cold tone: "She doesn't like you, and she won't like the identity of Xiling Crown Princess. A forced melon is not sweet, and you are doing this in vain."
Chen Che didn't care, "I don't know whether the forced melon is sweet or not, I only know how to quench my thirst."
"Have you heard of marriage first, love later? As long as we get married, we will have unlimited time to cultivate our feelings. I can promise her everything I can give, and one day she will be touched."
The guard outside Jinxiu Palace looked at the token and opened the door. Chen Che walked in with a swagger and stood at the door and saw a familiar figure having breakfast.
She didn't eat too fast, but chewed her food gracefully and slowly. Even her back was a pleasure to watch.
Zi Yuan was the first to see him. She glared at him viciously before saying, "Miss, the Crown Prince of Xiling is here."
Qiao Wanyan paused for a moment as she picked up the food. She listened to the footsteps getting closer and continued to pick up the food and eat, as if nothing had happened.
Chen Che sat on the armchair not far from her, leaning back and looking at her lazily, with a subconscious arc at the corner of his lips.
Qiao Wanyan did not speak first, and Chen Che was unusually quiet, just enjoying her meal with great interest.
After the meal, Qiao Wanyan took the handkerchief and wiped her mouth before she stood up and walked in front of Shen Che.
Chen Che looked at her face and the smile on his face became more and more intense, but he was not surprised when he was slapped.
Just know.
"You have to eat to have the strength to hit someone, right?"
If you are full, the beating won’t hurt.
It feels numb and itchy.
Qiao Wanyan rolled her eyes at him, "What are you doing here? Are you here to get beaten?"
Chen Che covered his face with his hands, still unsatisfied, "You haven't let me see you for a long time, now I just have a chance and want to fight for it."
Qiao Wanyan was silent for a moment, "Let's make a deal?"
Chen Che: "You should know in your heart that there will be no changes in the marriage. Although I proposed the marriage first, the emperor has other calculations. I can't agree to this deal with you."
Even if he didn't mention it, perhaps Emperor Dayu would have sent her to Xiling for marriage.
Qiao Wanyan took the short whip from Ziyuan's waist and said, "I am not a brainless person, so I naturally don't have such childish thoughts."
"My deal is that I say sorry to you and you beat me half to death."
Chen Che: “….”
