Chapter 241 Force her into a political marriage



Huan Yue was drinking afternoon tea.

After all that work and energy, I had the chef bring me some duck legs to eat right away.

Several ducks were stewed and smelled delicious; duck legs, wings, and necks were placed on the plate in front of her.

A plate of duck meat was placed on each of Di Baose and Guo Bing.

Guo Bing slowly ate with her chopsticks. It was evening and the temperature wasn't low, but eating would save her from getting cold.

Di Baose was jumping around and eating quite a lot. After finishing her meal, she had another plate of radishes.

As for Princess Huayang's strong reaction to sending beauties to her husband, there's not much to say.

Let Guo Bing say, firstly, Princess Huayang shouldn't even think about giving it to anyone else, and secondly, why not give it to the Emperor?

Since Lady Cui did not send gifts to the Emperor, Princess Huayang would naturally keep an eye on her husband.

Guo Bing didn't support this kind of thing, but it was cause and effect. Princess Huayang was reaping the consequences of her actions.

Princess Huayang seems to have stopped caring about her husband's affairs and started focusing on the Pei family's.

Huan Yue had no idea what kind of beauty Princess Huayang had sent to Prince Zheng, nor did he know that Lady Cui and Lady Dong were planning to join forces again.

After picking up most of the ginkgo nuts, everyone started to collect their rewards.

Princess Yongjia sneered.

Huan Yue glanced at her: "Wait until you're begging for food before thinking about today. Maybe they'll each give you two taels back."

Di Baose clapped his hands and laughed: "These dozens of people, wouldn't they cost a hundred or two hundred taels in total?"

Huan Yue said, "That's quite a lot. Even a hero can be brought down by a single penny."

Princess Yongjia didn't want to speak. She watched as several concubines received their rewards.

Gong Zhaoxun, Ju Zhaoxun, and Ren Zhaoxun received their rewards and then came over to express their gratitude.

Di Baose said, "The Empress said that if you are truly grateful, you must remember that if the princess ever falls into trouble, you must not be short of a bowl of water and two steamed buns."

Several Zhaoxun were embarrassed and ran away quickly.

Of course they'd run away after taking the money. When gods fight, they don't need cannon fodder.

The group of officials received their money and left, even though they should be able to see His Highness by now.

However, the princesses are too powerful, and it might be more troublesome if they see His Highness.

Yu Anu returned to her room and exclaimed, "Haha, twenty taels of silver!"

The setting sun shone into the room.

Wang Chuyuan also laughed. The Empress is indeed extraordinary.

Yu Anu put away the silver and asked her maid to fetch the food. As she did so, she said to Wang Chuyuan, "Her Majesty just wants everyone to do more things themselves."

Wang Chuyuan nodded. She didn't want to take action, but she had nothing to say about the Empress's actions.

Yu Anu said, "Today is an unlucky day, but I will see Your Highness again in the future."

Wang Chuyuan lowered her head, her long eyelashes concealing her thoughts.

**

Qing'e Palace.

The palace maids were busy tidying up.

Xie Zhou came over and hugged his wife.

Neither Princess Huayang nor Princess Yongjia left.

Xie Zhou coldly asked, "Does the eldest and second eldest sister want to stay for the meal?"

Princess Huayang spoke first: "When the Immortal Fushan came to Sheng'an from Zichan Mountain, my grandmother always treated him with the utmost courtesy!"

Huan Yue asked, "Your father used to spoil you, and he'll have to keep spoiling you, no matter what you are. Do you think it's wrong for him not to spoil you? That he owes you something? Even when he stabbed your father, you could still criticize him for spoiling other daughters? Why didn't the other princesses stab you to death? You owe him something, and you'll have to pay it back sooner or later."

Princess Huayang turned pale after being confronted.

Huan Yue didn't mince words: "If you're tired of living, you can return everything now. Return everything the royal family gave you. If you like the Cui family, then go to the Cui family!"

Princess Huayang held her ground: "The Pei family raised you all these years."

Huan Yue nodded: "The royal family raised you to this age, they should sell you by weight! Let me see where it's most profitable to sell you?"

Xie Zhou had an idea: "The kingdoms of Xiuxun and Yitihan have considered marriage alliances. Prince Wei of Yitihan has never met his elder sister."

Ah! Princess Huayang panicked and ran!

Princess Yongjia also left.

Those two in the Eastern Palace are simply demons.

No matter what the Zhao state does, if they are really forced to go and marry foreign rulers, they might as well be killed.

Princess Huayang could propose Princess Yongmu, but the decision of whether to marry her was not up to her.

Even if she marries down and has children, many things in this world are unreasonable.

Neither the Huayang nor the Yongjia prince consort were indispensable to the princess; as long as the benefits were right, the princess would be the one to lose face in the end.

Huan Yue blinked, as if something was strange.

Xie Zhou can finally hold his wife; she smells so good.

Huan Yue glanced at him.

Xie Zhou kissed her eyes, saying that his wife was the best person in the world.

Huan Yue poked him away with one finger, thinking, "Doesn't Princess Huayang think the驸马 (the驸马) is very good? No matter what the驸马 is like, he's better than a marriage alliance. With that kind of bottom line, everything is sweet? Can she treat the驸马 any better?"

Xie Zhou held his wife's hand playfully and nuzzled her, asking, "Does it matter whether it's good or not?"

Huan Yue looked at him, wondering what he was doing rubbing against him. Did he want to stay in bed for a few days?

Xie Zhou considered it carefully and said to his wife, "The matter of the Prince Consort of Huayang is not so simple. Perhaps the princess will feel that she is safe."

Then they continued to act with impunity.

Huan Yue was speechless: "Is it still safe now?"

Xie Zhou coaxed his wife, "If she acts recklessly again next time, I guarantee I'll send her to marry a foreign ruler. Marriages with the Kingdom of Ithaca are advantageous."

Huan Yue said, "Just don't ask other girls to go."

Xie Zhou kissed her: "That's not necessarily true. There might be someone willing."

It can't be said that marriage alliances are entirely bad.

There are still some who want to take a chance.

But this kind of opportunity isn't something she can get from just anyone.

This is no small matter; the ultimate goal of a marriage alliance is for our benefit.

If it's someone unsuitable, driven by their own ambitions, or even turning against you, then that definitely won't work.

Huan Yue doesn't worry about those things, and as for Princess Huayang's two children, she's not taking them seriously these days.

Xie Zhou asked his wife, "How many ginkgo nuts did you harvest?"

Huan Yue said, "Eighteen loads today."

Xie Zhou looked up at the tree: "This year it might exceed forty loads."

Huan Yue said, "This is the size of the tree right here." Although the old tree is exceptionally large, "it cannot last if it exceeds the bottom line."

In other words, if a tree can produce 800 jin of fruit, and you always want to produce 10,000 jin per mu, unless it is a new variety, it will die after exhausting its life.

Xie Zhou nodded; his wife's words made sense.

We need to cultivate new varieties and pay attention to production capacity; don't listen to empty boasts. Good years and bad years are perfectly normal.

Huan Yue sensed the lecherous man's eagerness and asked him, "Shall I send you two beauties over?"

Xie Zhou hugged his wife tightly: "You are the most beautiful."

Heh, trash.

Xie Zhou held his wife's hand.

Was she three years old?

In the east wing room, the chefs and other cooks were all ready, waiting to see whether His Highness would eat or not.

Xie Zhou wanted to eat his wife.

Huan Yue could kick him out of the Eastern Palace with one kick.

Princess Huayang could be married off to a foreign ruler, thus changing the master of the Eastern Palace.

Xie Zhou could manage to get along with both the Dong and Cui families, but he had many complaints and no way to express them.

Now everyone is using Fushan Zhenren as an excuse, I wonder how much she can borrow?

Huan Yue felt that the old lady was like a dung scoop.

A manure ladle is a common tool used to scoop up manure.

Carry the toilet to the field, dilute it with water, and then use a manure scoop to gently pour or spray it onto the plants, spoonful by spoonful.

It was originally a good thing, although it's not good to think about it while eating.
