Chapter 531 Princess Lihua's Wedding
Princess Lihua originally thought that since she was the emperor's grandniece, the emperor would definitely stand up for her.
Summon Shen Muyang to the main hall and give him a good scolding. Then, step forward and plead for Shen Muyang. Shen Muyang will surely be moved by your actions.
But she didn't expect that even as she wept bitterly before the Emperor, he remained seated on his high throne without any reaction.
After Princess Lihua finished crying, the Emperor spoke loudly.
"Lihua, you were in the wrong this time."
You are a woman, and a royal princess, how could you go directly to a man's house to propose to him?
"Aren't you blatantly disgracing our royal family by doing this?"
"I..." Princess Lihua was a little bewildered after being reprimanded by the Emperor.
"Grandpa Emperor, isn't it normal for Lihua to come to Shen Muyang's house to tell him that she likes him?"
Besides, I'm a county princess; it's his good fortune that he's taken a liking to me. Grandfather, this isn't the time to talk about this. Please quickly grant Lihua the marriage decree; I want to marry Shen Muyang!
The Emperor was stunned by Princess Lihua's nonsensical words. He never expected that Prince Ming would raise his granddaughter to be such a good-for-nothing.
The Emperor was already at his limit, and he had to muster all his energy to handle official business. He had neither the time nor the energy to deal with this brainless county princess's madness.
The Emperor said coldly,
"Lihua, since you want to get married, I will definitely grant you a marriage. Go back to your residence and stay there. Let the nanny teach you some manners."
"Don't let people laugh at our royal family for having no manners when we get to the groom's house."
"Someone, take Princess Lihua back to the Prince Ming's residence, and bring two governesses with you as well."
When Princess Lihua heard the Emperor say that he would bestow a marriage upon her, she thought that the Emperor had agreed to her marriage with Shen Muyang.
But she immediately became unhappy when she heard that the Emperor wanted to send her a governess.
"Grandpa, Lihua is very well-behaved and doesn't need a governess."
Besides, I am a royal county princess. Anyone who dares to complain about my poor manners, I'll have my grandfather behead them..."
"How dare you! At such a young age, you're already shouting about fighting and killing, have you no manners at all?"
Is this how the Prince Ming's Mansion teaches its juniors?
"Drag him away! He is not allowed to leave the residence without my permission."
Since you're so eager to get married, I'll grant your wish!
The Emperor acted swiftly, arranging a marriage for Princess Lihua in just three days.
The other party was a fallen count's mansion. The man was quite good-looking, but his talent was mediocre, though his character was good.
The key point is that this family has good traditions; a man can only take a concubine if he is forty years old and has no son.
As long as Princess Lihua is willing to live a good life, her future will not be too bad.
No matter what, Princess Lihua is the direct granddaughter of Prince Ming. If she doesn't cause trouble and doesn't become a pawn of Prince Ming's mansion...
The Emperor did not intend to mistreat him. Originally, the Emperor planned that as long as she behaved herself, he would promote the Earl's title.
In this way, Princess Lihua's children and grandchildren would also be able to inherit the title, but Princess Lihua did not appreciate the emperor's kindness at all.
When the imperial edict arrived at the Ming Prince's Mansion, Princess Lihua was completely stunned. She kept shouting and arguing that she would not marry him.
But the guards watching over her ignored her completely. When Princess Lihua realized that shouting was useless, she calmed down and immediately wrote a letter to her parents.
She hoped they could help stop the marriage, but she didn't expect the wedding date to come so soon.
Just as Princess Lihua's letter was sent out, the Ministry of Rites sent someone with the date.
The Earl's mansion also sent generous betrothal gifts that same day, accompanied by official matchmakers.
After all, for the Earl's family to be able to marry into the Ming Prince's family was a high-class marriage.
