Yu Chaoyang obediently let Concubine Luo support him and went back to his own courtyard.
She placed all her hopes on her father, and she felt relieved when her mother's family came.
After the Yong'an Earl and his wife entered the main hall and greeted everyone, they found a guest seat and sat down without waiting for the prince to invite them to sit down.
Although Shangguan Zishu is the prince's son, he is also their son-in-law, so they are in the right today.
"Your Majesty, our Yu family is still a baronial family after all. Chaoyang has been married into the palace for several months and has been behaving properly as a concubine. Now she is pregnant with her father's child. We must not disappoint the concubine and bring shame to our Yu family.
Of course, our Yu family also obtained the title through military exploits. Although we cannot compare with the royal palace, we also sacrificed several men for the sake of defending our country and the people of Wei."
Yu Yunxin glanced at everyone in the hall and spoke arrogantly with great imposing manner.
Yu Yuanzheng thought highly of his attitude.
Of course, I also know that my uncle did it for the Yu family's face.
If you still endure being bullied to this extent, you would be too spineless.
"My dear relatives, we are discussing this matter." The prince had to calm him down first.
"Your Majesty, please give us an explanation. Our Nanhua is waiting for us to bring back news.
It would be bad if I got back too late and saw a dead body.
She is the younger cousin that the emperor likes, otherwise she would not have been named a county princess.
Our Nanhua is the daughter of Prince Mo who was carefully nurtured. I wanted to find her a perfect husband, but everything was ruined by that one look from my husband."
Cao Mengxing began to put pressure on the prince again.
Both sides are forcing the prince to give an explanation.
"Humph, Xingzi only considers your daughter, but have you ever thought about our daughter?
Don't treat people as fools. Although I was not present at the incident in the palace yesterday, I knew as soon as I heard it that the boy was tricked.
And you know clearly who it is.
She also carefully trained her daughter, and she snatched other people's men openly and shamelessly."
Wang became angry after hearing what Cao Mengxing said, and started cursing without caring whether they were in the palace or not.
"How can you talk like that? What evidence do you have that my daughter designed this?" Mrs. Xingzi, Lin Xinru, was not willing to admit that her daughter was the one who designed this.
Even the Queen hasn't found out what happened, so how could people just talk nonsense?
"We are all women, and everyone knows what your daughter is thinking. Doesn't she just want to be the concubine of Prince Rong?
Do you think that by entering the palace you can surpass my daughter and take the position of royal consort?
Don't forget that my Chaoyang was married to the Wang family by the Emperor. But the Nanhua County Lady used such shady means to get the upper hand." Wang continued to rant.
"Humph, your Chaoyang was married to the prince of the royal family by the emperor, but unfortunately it was given to the prince's son Shangguan Ziqi. You thought she was comatose and didn't want to marry, so you came to steal her. Don't make yourself sound so noble, Yu family."
Wang was so shocked that she couldn't find any words to refute.
The prince was speechless when he saw the two women quarreling.
"Okay, no one should say anything. It has already happened. Since Nanhua insists on marrying into the palace, my palace will marry her, but I have to make it clear in advance that she should not regret it in the future. As long as she marries into my Shangguan family, she will die in the Shangguan family in the future.
The princess will prepare the betrothal gifts and marry her according to the ceremony of marrying a common wife, but Chaoyang Princess Consort's position cannot be shaken. If Nanhua enters the palace and intends to harm Princess Consort, then she can just go home and divorce her. "
The prince agreed to the marriage.
But it also ensured that Yu Chaoyang's position was unshakable. Secondly, he was also considering Shangguan Zishu. As for whether this son could understand his father's intentions, it depended on his own understanding.
Cao Mengxing and his wife got what they wanted and said goodbye and left. Before leaving, they gave Yu Yunxin a provocative look.
As long as my daughter enters the palace, we can talk about the future matters later.
Yu Yunxin did not say goodbye.
They felt that this was not enough. With just one sentence from the prince, their son-in-law had to have such a stubborn woman in his family. How could their daughter ever live a peaceful life in the future?
No matter how I think about it, I feel uncomfortable.
"Your Highness, now that Lady Nanhua has entered the palace, what should we do with Chaoyang?" Yu Yunxin looked worried.
"Alas, I am helpless. My family is in misfortune. My dear, you have been in the Dali Temple for quite a while, and you are even a temple secretary. One day, I will invite the Dali Temple's Shaoqing to have tea and see if I can promote you to the position of Dali official."
The prince couldn't think of a better way and could only give some benefits to his in-laws.
Yu Yunxin was delighted when he heard this.
It's so difficult for him to get promoted to the next level.
It is difficult for people like him who obtained their official positions through the influence of their superiors to be promoted. Because they have never participated in the imperial examinations, they have a big shortcoming in academic knowledge and are excluded by officials who were born as scholars. This is a gap that they cannot cross.
"Thank you very much for your kindness, Your Majesty."
After getting the benefit, Earl Yong'an took his wife to visit his daughter again and comforted her before leaving the palace.
But Yu Chaoyang could not accept this result, but she had to swallow the bitter fruit.
As a result, she took pregnancy-preserving medicine for three days before she slowly accepted the reality.
Jinling and Yinling, who had just been promoted to aunts, were also terrified.
If Lady Nanhua entered the mansion, it would be difficult to get along with such a woman.
It is impossible for the princess to let a concubine, who is also a county lady, to follow the rules for her.
Her status was clear, and the princess had to follow the proper etiquette when she met the county lady before entering the palace.
Even if she enters the palace, she is still a county lady.
And it would be even more difficult for the two of them, who were promoted from maids to concubines, to get a share of the emperor's favor in the future.
The two thought about it and discussed it for a long time, and finally decided that Concubine Yizi would surrender, and the three women would join forces to fight against the county lord.
Yu Yuanzheng doesn't care about these things, and in fact, they have nothing to do with her.
However, in order to prepare the betrothal gifts for Princess Nanhua, the princess was busy for several days.
He prepared a betrothal gift of the same value as the one he gave to Yu's family.
Concubine Luo even came to check on it, fearing that the princess had given too little.
Concubine Luo really has thought of everything.
She was very happy in her heart.
My son will have two wives who are not bad at all in the future, and his position will be secure.
If both of them gave birth to sons, then the couple would have even more offspring.
She never thought that the prince had the final say in the palace.
The second old lady was also happy to see him.
Yu Chaoyang and Princess Nanhua are not on the same level.
During the days of preparing the betrothal gifts, Prince Mo's Mansion urged Qian Liuli to prepare the six gifts.
It seemed as if Prince Mo's Mansion was afraid that things might change, so they kept everything simple and set the wedding date for three months later.
The princess had to hurry up, and it took only half a month to complete the process of accepting the marriage proposal. Then she had to pay the betrothal gift.
On the day of the betrothal, the princess went there in person and gave the prince enough face.
Yu Yuanzheng couldn't understand why the Mo Palace was so anxious?
"Husband, do you know the reason? Could it be that Princess Nanhua is already pregnant?" Yu Yuanzheng couldn't figure it out.
"Don't talk nonsense. The wedding night is to test the roundness of the handkerchief."
"Then why is she so anxious?" After asking, Yu Yuanzheng suddenly thought of a possibility.
