Chapter 204 How to Marry a Dead Person
Tang Cheng's lips twitched slightly; he could tell that Fu Lin really liked Xiao Su Bao.
So she reached out, grabbed her son's ear, and threw him aside.
"Sir, please don't take it to heart," Tang Cheng said hurriedly to Fu Lin.
"Ahem, Da Bao, hurry back and call someone over. We still need to take these wild boars back!" Tang Cheng said to his son.
Tang Dabao made sure Xiao Su Bao was alright before turning around and running away.
Bai Yinjun and the other young men and women looked at each other in bewilderment.
They didn't say anything more; these kids are very good at reading people's expressions.
"Uncle Fu~" Little Su Bao called out nervously.
Fulin looked at the little dumpling and reached out to touch her hair!
I can't touch my own daughter, but I can have some fun holding my little Su Bao!
He had other concubine daughters in his family, but they were either too scared to come over when they saw him, or they were very respectful. It wasn't fun at all.
His feelings for them were naturally not as strong as his feelings for Fumando.
"You little rascal, slow down next time! You almost popped your uncle's stomach open!" Fu Lin said, looking at the little dumpling.
Little Su Bao was startled and quickly looked at Fu Lin's stomach, her face filled with guilt.
"I'm...I'm sorry, I didn't mean to!" Little Su Bao knew she was strong, and she had really used her strength just now because she was worried about her nephew!
However, Xiao Su Bao also discovered that this Uncle Fu was quite amazing; he hadn't bumped into her at all...
The arms that were holding me were so strong, a strength different from that of the Tang brothers...
"You silly girl, you can't be so impulsive in the future!" Fulin finally put the little dumpling on the ground and let the two children play together.
Xiao Mobao silently put the dagger he had drawn back down. He raised his eyes, a strange light in them.
Xiao Su Bao stood on the ground, glanced at Fu Lin, but said nothing.
If Sister Fu's father is like this, then where is her father?
The little dumpling tilted its head back, yawned, and its eyes were a little watery.
She didn't cry, she was just a little sleepy!
The midday sun was bright and scorching, and her hand was pulled up by Fu Manduo and Xiao Mobao.
The little girl paused, then a smile appeared on her face.
"My dear little Su Bao, please don't be angry. My dad is a very nice person. He was just..." The little girl didn't know how to explain.
"What is it?" Fulin couldn't help but ask, looking at his heartless daughter.
The little girl turned her head, made a face at Fulin, and quickly ran away.
Little Su Bao was a little envious, but she didn't know what she was envious of...
Meanwhile, in the capital, the emperor was furious when he heard that General Tang Bugui was going to marry a deceased woman.
He was actually planning to marry his daughter to him!
In their Great Shang Kingdom, there was no rule that marrying a princess meant you couldn't become an official. As long as you had the ability, the emperor would give you a chance.
Tang Bugui was someone the emperor had long admired, and for this reason, the emperor even wanted to marry his most beloved daughter to him.
"Nonsense! Lan Shuyu has lost her reputation and has given birth to a daughter out of wedlock..." the emperor rebuked coldly.
"This humble general understands!" Tang Bugui knelt on the ground, his tone firm.
“She lost her reputation because of me. Her daughter, whom she had out of wedlock, is also my daughter…” Tang Bugui raised his eyes and said earnestly.
"Don't return! Do you know how much this will affect you if you do this?" The emperor frowned, a hint of inquiry in his eyes.
Tang Bugui kowtowed to the emperor. He was an orphan, and if the emperor hadn't liked him, he wouldn't have been able to get to this point.
But he wronged that girl because of his country.
He has to pay!
Besides, that title originally belonged to her.
"This humble general understands, and begs Your Majesty to grant my request!" Tang Bugui said respectfully, his body looking extremely thin, and his eyes having lost some of their luster.
"You... never mind, since you want it, I will give it to you!" The emperor reached out, sighed, and helped him up.
The emperor helped Tang Bugui straighten his clothes and said, "Since you insist on marrying her, I will bestow upon her the title of a third-rank noblewoman!"
Tang Bugui was truly grateful.
"Alright, you may leave! I am tired..." The emperor waved his hand, signaling someone to send him away.
After Tang Bugui left, the emperor's furrowed brows finally relaxed, and he sighed.
At that moment, a person walked out from behind the screen.
"Sanlang, this Bugui is a good boy. If he marries the deceased daughter of the Lan family, wouldn't it be a bit of a hardship?" The Empress came out and poured a cup of tea for the Emperor.
The emperor reached out and pulled the empress to sit beside him.
"Zitong is right, but this kid is too stubborn. I have no other choice..." The emperor said helplessly, with a hint of frustration in his eyes.
"Oh well, I heard that Lan Shuyu gave birth to a daughter who is now the same age as that lucky star Lan Xin'er. This..." The Empress hesitated slightly, a hint of confusion in her eyes.
This Lan Xin'er is a lucky star recognized by the Master of Destiny, who can bring good fortune to the Great Shang Kingdom.
She even began to doubt whether Lan Xin'er was Lan Shuyu's child.
"You're overthinking it!" the emperor snorted, clearly displeased with the Lan family.
He decided to gossip with his wife and told her about what he had found out during this period of time.
The Empress's face turned cold, and she slammed her hand on the table and stood up instantly.
"These Lan family members are really... really too much! He's just a child, why can't they tolerate him!"
In fact, the Empress was the daughter of a minor official. She and the Emperor were young lovers and have been together ever since.
The emperor took the empress's hand and coaxed her, "Alright, Zitong, don't be angry. I have a way to deal with the Lan family's affairs!"
"The Lan Feng father and son are alright, but the wives they married are not very good, unlike me, who married such a good wife as Zi Tong!" The emperor looked at his wife and spoke gently.
The Empress glanced at the Emperor and gave a soft snort.
"Your Majesty, will you be staying at my place tonight?" the Empress asked, raising an eyebrow.
emperor……
"Alright, Your Majesty, you should go find your beauties and concubines. I'll take my leave now!" The Empress said, turning and leaving.
The emperor was furious, but he eventually went to apologize to his wife that night.
Meanwhile, the Lan family was in complete chaos.
When Madam Lan heard that Tang Bugui was going to marry that dead Lan Shuyu, she was furious.
“Son, this is not appropriate. Tang Bugui is a great general. How can he marry a dead man? Since he wants to curry favor with our Lan family, you should marry your second brother’s niece to him. She is still a virgin!” Old Madam Lan said from the head of the table.
Lord Lan's face darkened slightly. When his daughter died, he was all alone.
He wanted to investigate, but his mother suddenly fell seriously ill, and he was so busy that he had to put the matter aside.
In recent years, I have been traveling to various places and am not often at home, so there is nothing I can do.
Seeing the mother's reaction to her daughter, Lord Lan's face was extremely gloomy.
He didn't speak, and Madam Lan's expression changed slightly when she saw her husband's expression.
