Chapter 239: Three Years Postponed
Luo Qinghan asked calmly: "What trouble have you caused again?"
"It's not me who's causing trouble, it's Xiao Liang Di who's bullying!"
"What did she do to you?"
Chen Liangyuan recounted what had just happened from beginning to end.
She deliberately omitted the part about her instigating Xiao Liangdi to deal with the future Crown Princess, and at the same time she did not forget to emphasize Xiao Liangdi's arrogance, rudeness and disrespect.
Luo Qinghan asked: "When a pheasant flies to a tree and turns into a phoenix, isn't Xiao Liangdi blessing you? How can it be regarded as scolding you?"
Chen Liangyuan cried and said, "She called me a pheasant!"
"She really shouldn't have compared you to a pheasant. At least pheasants can lay eggs. What can you do?"
Chen Liangyuan: “…”
She suddenly forgot to cry and looked at the prince in disbelief.
Luo Qinghan said coldly: "I am still recovering from my illness, but you are not only inconsiderate, but you also come to make trouble with me at this time. Tell me, what is the point of me supporting you? Are you trying to make yourself unhappy?"
Chen Liangyuan knelt down and said aggrievedly: "I know I was wrong."
Luo Qinghan closed his eyes, making it clear that he didn't want to see her again.
Chen Liangyuan could only retreat crying.
She didn't understand. She had scolded Xiao Liangdi on impulse before, and the prince happened to hear it, so he punished her with a month's imprisonment.
Today it was her turn to be scolded by Xiao Liangdi. Why did the prince not only not punish Xiao Liangdi, but instead scolded her?
Even if I am biased, it shouldn't be that excessive, right? !
The more Chen Liangyuan thought about it, the angrier she became. She had so much grievances in her heart and had no place to vent them. She was so angry that she couldn't sleep the whole night.
The next day, the imperial physician came to take the prince's pulse and found that his pulse had returned to normal.
The prince's illness lasted for more than half a month, but now he has recovered all of a sudden!
The imperial physician was extremely surprised. After carefully asking the prince what he had eaten and used, he conveyed the good news to the emperor and empress.
The emperor immediately summoned Taoist Tianyi.
Soon Queen Qin and Princess Hua'an also rushed over. They all wanted to know what Taoist Tianyi said.
Taoist Tianyi said calmly.
"The reason why the prince has been ill for so long is because he consumed some of his lifespan when praying for rain. It just so happens that he has a fate that will bring bad luck to his wife. You insisted on marrying him a princess, but his fate couldn't bear it. In addition, his body was already weak, so he suddenly fainted. Fortunately, it was discovered early and he can still be saved."
The facts were before them, and even if the Emperor and Queen Qin still had doubts in their hearts, they could not force the Crown Prince to marry the Crown Princess.
If the truth is really as what Tianyi Taoist said, that the prince is unlucky in marriage, and if he is forced to appoint a princess, and if she really dies, who will be held responsible in the end?
Based on the principle of believing it is better to believe it than not, the Emperor and Queen Qin could only postpone the appointment of the Crown Princess for three years.
Now that the prince has recovered, Tianyi Taoist has retired.
When he left the palace, he found that the Taoist temple's carriage was already waiting at the palace gate.
A Taoist priest from Tianyi entered the carriage with the help of a Taoist boy.
As soon as he got into the car, he saw Nie Changping who had been waiting for a long time.
Nie Changping smiled at him and said, "Master, how is the matter going?"
Tianyi Taoist sat down in the car and sighed.
"I have already done what the young prince said. Oh, I never thought that I would be reduced to colluding with others to deceive the emperor. Pity my reputation in this life!"
"It's too harsh to say 'to go along with the crowd'. We are clearly mutually beneficial. If you help the prince, when he ascends the throne, he will not only respect you as the state teacher, but will also make Taoism the state religion, so that those Buddhist bald donkeys will have to avoid you Taoists when they see you."
Taoist Tianyi imagined the scene and felt it was quite beautiful.
