Chapter 145 The Dandy Prince and His Irritable Concubine
"King Maple!"
The old emperor picked up the teacup in front of him and took a sip, then half-raised his eyelids to glance at his useless second brother.
"Hey, Fourth Brother, why did you call me to the Imperial Study alone?"
"That telescope you mentioned in the palace, was it really made by that useless brat of mine?"
"How could he have such ability? Did you make a mistake?"
As soon as the old prince opened his mouth, he exuded an air of ignorance.
The emperor frowned. He was helpless in dealing with his second brother.
I didn't like reading since I was a child, and when I grew up I just liked walking cats and playing with dogs.
If he had not married a powerful princess, no one in the entire capital could have controlled him except the late emperor.
"Other people might be wrong, but how could my words be false?"
"Someone below reported that Xiaoyu and his newly married princess went to the Liulichang to make this telescope."
"If this thing didn't come from Xiaoyu, it must have come from that good daughter-in-law you snatched away from your family."
The emperor knew everything about the affairs of Prince Feng's Mansion.
This matter might be hidden from others, but it could not be hidden from him, the emperor's spy.
"My daughter-in-law?"
"If it comes from my daughter-in-law, then there's no problem."
"Fourth brother, you may not know that although my daughter-in-law comes from a farming family, she is extremely intelligent and very rare!"
"That naughty boy of mine used to not even listen to me, his father. But since he got married, he's been obeying my wife in everything."
The old prince felt a little proud, after all, it was he who came up with the idea of capturing his daughter-in-law.
However, he also saw that his wife was really worried, and his wife's close friends would come over from time to time to show off their daughters-in-law and grandchildren.
My wife was so worried that she couldn't eat. She was depressed and constipated, so she felt unwell.
Lao Wang also took a look and thought that this was not a big deal!
He then instructed the housekeeper to find a clean girl from outside and let his son marry her.
The idea came hastily, but was implemented very quickly.
The idea was just thought of that morning, and the son entered the bridal chamber that evening.
During the entire wedding, no guests were invited except the palace’s own family members.
But the old prince didn't care about these things at all, as long as his son could become a better person.
"Brother, this telescope may be a small thing, but it's very useful. If it can be used on the battlefield, it will really help us anticipate the enemy's moves."
"You may not understand the key points of this since you don't pay attention to court affairs, but your daughter-in-law is truly not an ordinary person. I have already asked people to investigate, but they can't find anything."
"You two should also pay attention to your daughter-in-law and observe her carefully in private. Don't let the enemy's spies take advantage of the opportunity."
The old emperor saw that his indirect hints had no effect on his second brother.
Just make things clear.
Otherwise, with his brother's dull mind, he probably wouldn't be able to figure out his intention until next year.
"impossible!"
"That's absolutely impossible!"
"Fourth brother, you don't know!"
"My daughter-in-law is a real native of Qingshui Village. I've been to her home. She's so poor that she has nothing but a few mud houses."
"But his grandparents and uncles are pretty good. Even though they're a little poor, they've taken good care of my daughter-in-law."
"Come to my house when you have time. Once you've had contact with my daughter-in-law, I guarantee you won't doubt her anymore."
The old prince scoffed at his younger brother's suspicion.
Although he is uneducated, he has a very accurate eye for people.
At the beginning, the old butler brought back four or five girls, and he fell in love with Lin Wanwan at first sight.
In addition to her clean and pretty appearance, the most important thing about this girl is that she makes people feel pity when they look at her.
What a poor, lovely girl!
That brat in his family, although he has a reputation as a playboy, is actually just a naive idiot.
If he finds a cunning wife, she might even deceive his son.
But if we bring back a fool, the couple will probably be sold and have to count money for others.
He thinks his daughter-in-law is pretty good.
I heard from the servants that his daughter-in-law beat his son and his son didn't even dare to resist.
But most of the time, his daughter-in-law obeys his son in everything.
That kind of love emanates from the bones.
According to my wife, this is called love at first sight.
It’s also thanks to the good looks of that boy that he won the heart of his wife, otherwise... I would have wanted to beat this stinky boy to death with a rattan stick.
"Anyway, you two should be more careful!"
The emperor saw that even though he had made his point clear, his brother still didn't take it seriously.
I can only think about finding an opportunity to meet my niece-in-law in person.
The two chatted for about a cup of tea, and then the old emperor drove the old prince out.
"He's just a jerk. I can't figure out how to reason with him."
The old emperor kept criticizing his second brother after a long period of arguing with each other, but his second brother kept praising his daughter-in-law in front of him.
It seems like everyone has a few well-behaved and lovely daughters-in-law.
Having said that, the old emperor thought about the wives of his sons.
well!
It seems that what his second brother said is also right.
The old prince happily returned home and told his wife what had happened in the court and the imperial study.
The two men immediately praised their daughter-in-law.
"Tell me, does my fourth brother have his eyes on our daughter-in-law and wants to poach her?"
After praising for a while, the somewhat satisfied old prince stroked his beard and asked.
"That's impossible. The Yellow Emperor already has so many daughters-in-law. There's no reason for him to compete with ours."
The old princess put down the melon seeds in her hand, feeling a little worried.
But then she thought, if the emperor really dared to steal her away, the worst that could happen to her would be a fight with him.
You know, the old princess has a good relationship with the current queen. They were close friends before they got married. Now that they are old, they have more topics to talk about and often get together to keep in touch.
Although most of the time, it was the old princess who went to the palace to accompany her good sister.
But it was precisely because the old princess had the favor of the Queen that no one in the court would easily provoke their palace.
What's more, the old prince is also a ruthless person. If he gets angry, he even dares to defy the emperor.
"Isn't my daughter-in-law going back to her parents' home tomorrow? Remember to prepare a generous gift for her return."
"Our daughter-in-law is not that short-sighted. As long as the two of us treat her well, I believe she won't be snatched away easily."
Although he was worried, the old prince still had some confidence in his son.
With his son's looks, no one would dare to refute the statement that he is the most handsome man in the capital.
