Chapter 1471: If that's the case, I'll regret it until I die
The Zheng family naturally would not go to Prince Cheng'en's Palace!
After Prime Minister Zheng learned the whole story, he almost beat up his own children again.
When Mrs. Zheng saw that her son had a big bump on his forehead and her daughter was wrapped in thick gauze, she burst into tears of heartache.
"Master, Prince Cheng'en's mansion has gone too far. We must make them give an explanation for this matter, otherwise they will think that our Zheng family is easy to bully!" Madam Zheng said angrily while crying, "Prince Cheng'en is just an idle prince. Do they think they can provoke our Zheng family? We were just giving them face, and now..."
“Bang!”
Prime Minister Zheng slammed the table and roared angrily, "Now we can only let them suffer the consequences of their own actions! It's all because of you that they indulged them. How dare they do such lawless things! They deserve to be beaten and disgraced throughout the capital!"
Mrs. Zheng was startled and subconsciously glanced at her master's hand.
Prime Minister Zheng was so furious that he ignored the pain in his hand.
Madam Zheng was so angry that she defied Prime Minister Zheng's wrath and said in a humble tone, "Even if Ziqian acted rashly, Princess Linghua shouldn't trample on the reputation of our Zheng family. Besides, I wonder if Xin'er's hand will be scarred."
When Zheng Suxin heard Mrs. Zheng talking about herself, she felt scared, worried, and her hands hurt, so she couldn't help but cry.
She doesn't want to be scarred!
"Mmmmm... Mother, I heard that Princess Ford has some scar removal medicine that's very effective...mmmm..."
"You still want scar removal medicine?!" Before Madam Zheng could say anything, Prime Minister Zheng roared angrily, "You've insulted the Xia family so badly. You're lucky that Princess Fude didn't add insult to injury and give you a few packets of poison!"
Zheng Suxin's crying stopped.
Madam Zheng said unconvincedly, "Master, you are the Prime Minister of the current dynasty, and my aunt is the Imperial Concubine of the current dynasty. How can a mere little girl from the Su family really have such power in the capital?"
Madam Zheng was extremely dissatisfied with her master's behavior of boosting others' ambitions and destroying his own prestige. She couldn't help but raise her voice.
It’s just that her voice was loud, and Prime Minister Zheng’s voice was even louder.
"What do you know?! You're just a woman, so shallow!" Zheng Shoufu roared, "Back then, when the little girl from the Su family smashed up the Bai family, the mother and son of the Bai family went to the palace to complain, and ended up being reprimanded by the Empress Dowager and the Emperor respectively!"
Madam Zheng: “…”
His face changed.
Zheng Shoufu continued to roar, "The Xia family girl was canonized as a princess. Do you think it was really the Xia family girl's contribution?!"
Madam Zheng: “…”
Isn’t it?
"That's all thanks to the little girl from the Su family! It was the little girl from the Su family who gave the credit to the little girl from the Xia family!"
Prime Minister Zheng roared and slammed the table.
As for whether your hand hurts or not, you will know later.
"How, how is this possible?" Mrs. Zheng was shocked.
"How is it impossible? The Emperor knows all about this!" Zheng Shoufu continued to shout desperately, "The Emperor agreed to the little girl from the Su family's request! What else could the Emperor not agree to?"
"When Prince Xiao of Northern Qi asked to marry the little girl from the Su family, what happened?! It didn't take long for the little girl from the Su family to find the jade seal and was canonized as the double princess!"
The more Prime Minister Zheng yelled, the louder his voice became.
"Why do you think the Imperial Concubine befriended the little girl from the Su family? Why did she specifically warn you not to go against the Su family? And why did she want to marry into the Su family and marry Xin'er into the Su family?!"
Now, the marriage cannot be completed, and I am afraid that we will become enemies!
After hearing what Prime Minister Zheng said, Zheng Suxin looked at Madam Zheng in panic.
Then he knelt down in front of Prime Minister Zheng.
"Dad, I don't want to marry into the Su family." Zheng Suxin bit her lip and said, "The Su family is just an ordinary marquis' family. Even if Su Tang is valued by the emperor and the empress dowager, she is still just a little girl after all."
Zheng Suxin paused here, then mustered up the courage to continue, "I don't want people to say that I'm taking advantage of my aunt from my husband's family. I want to marry into the Eastern Palace and rely on my own abilities to support the Zheng family, just like my aunt did..."
"Good! You are worthy of being the daughter of my Zheng family!"
As the words were spoken, the old lady of the Zheng family walked in with a dragon-headed cane.
"mother!"
"grandmother!"
"Um."
The old lady first looked at her granddaughter with tears in her eyes, then sat down in the main seat and looked at Prime Minister Zheng.
"Xin'er is right. It's better to rely on yourself than on others." The old lady said, "Even if Xin'er becomes the mistress of the Su family in the future, she will only be the mistress of a marquis's mansion. If she can enter the Eastern Palace, even if she becomes a concubine, she will not be comparable to the mistress of a marquis's mansion."
After all, after the crown prince ascends the throne, the crown prince's concubine can at least occupy the position of the four concubines.
If handled properly, you might even be able to become the queen.
What's more, as long as she can give birth to a son, she can fight for the world.
By the way, the Imperial Concubine's childlessness has always been a hidden pain in the old lady's heart.
"Mother, what you mean is..." Prime Minister Zheng showed a hint of hesitation after hearing what the old lady said.
He naturally hoped that his daughter could marry into the Eastern Palace.
But His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's thoughts are all on that little girl from the Su family...
The emperor should have the same intention.
As the emperor's close minister, Prime Minister Zheng could naturally guess some of the emperor's thoughts.
Such a blessed little girl, who has a close relationship with his son, it would be strange if he didn't marry her off to be his daughter-in-law.
Prime Minister Zheng knew in his heart that if the little girl from the Su family married into the Eastern Palace, the Crown Prince would only have the little girl from the Su family in his eyes.
The other women in the East Palace are probably just decorations.
"After the crown prince's enthronement ceremony, it's time for him to get married." The old lady said slowly, "The little girl from the Su family is still young. Regardless of the emperor's wishes, it's time for someone to enter the Eastern Palace. As the Prime Minister, you should advise the crown prince to marry as soon as possible so that he can have more children and more heirs. This is the foundation of the country..."
Prime Minister Zheng's heart moved.
Zheng Suxin looked at Prime Minister Zheng with burning eyes.
If it weren't for the sudden appearance of a little girl from the Su family, looking at the entire capital, her status would have made her qualified to be the prince's wife.
Nowadays, even if you can't become the main wife, you can definitely be a concubine.
Since ancient times, it has been common for the crown prince to first take a concubine and then marry the crown princess.
As long as she gave birth to the eldest prince first, even if Su Tang entered the East Palace and became the Crown Princess in the future, she would have the confidence to fight.
What Zheng Suxin could think of, Zheng Shoufu naturally thought of as well.
Madam Zheng said anxiously, "Master, mother is right. The little girl from the Su family is still young after all. If we don't take this opportunity to marry Xin'er into the Eastern Palace, it will be even more difficult in the future."
Mrs. Zheng paused here, a hint of anticipation appearing on her face.
He added, "What's more, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has always claimed that he treats the little girl from the Su family as his sister. It's possible that he has no romantic feelings for the little girl from the Su family in this life, only brotherly love. In the future, he will simply marry the daughter of another family..."
If that's the case, won't the Zheng family regret marrying their daughter into the Su family?
