It seems that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has become much smarter after this incident and knows that it is useless to make trouble unreasonably.
"Speak." The emperor spat out a word coldly.
Although he had never thought of fulfilling Du Changming's wish, he also wanted to know what he was thinking.
"I have a crush on a woman. Would you please allow your Majesty to arrange a marriage for me? It just so happens that she is not of high status and is more than qualified to be the consort of the Seventh Prince. I beg your Majesty's approval."
There was a hint of provocation in his eyes as he looked at Sheng Mingyu.
Sheng Mingyu's heart skipped a beat and he had a bad feeling.
"Oh? I didn't expect you to be so infatuated with a woman. Tell me who it is? If it's not excessive, I can consider granting you a marriage. You're already old enough, and it's time for you to get married."
The emperor thought about it for a while and felt that this was not an excessive request.
No matter what, Sheng Mingyu and Du Changming's identities have not been changed back for the time being. If he wants to get married, it is indeed her responsibility to make the decision.
"Gu Yunni! I have asked your Majesty for your hand in marriage many times, but he always stopped me with inexplicable reasons. Now that I am no longer the Crown Prince, her status is more than enough for me. I just want to live a peaceful life. I beg your Majesty to grant my wish."
His words were like a bombshell, leaving everyone dizzy.
The imperial concubine's expression turned extremely ugly.
There was also accusation in the eighth prince's eyes.
Only Sheng Mingyu sat calmly in his seat, not moving at all.
"No! That's the person I want to marry Mingyu, and they are in love. How can you interfere? Choose someone else."
The emperor reacted quickly and refused immediately.
He said that Du Changming would not offer any good conditions, and it turned out to be true!
"No! As long as Your Majesty is willing to give Gu Yunni to me, I will give you whatever Your Majesty wants. I have accumulated a lot of power since I sit on the throne of the Crown Prince. How about using these things in exchange?"
Du Changming shook his head with a determined look on his face.
The emperor looked dangerous and almost cursed, but he held himself back and didn't say anything.
"I am the Emperor! If I say no, then no. Do you really think that someone would covet your possessions? If you insist on being so willful, don't blame me for sending you away! Come, send the Seventh Prince back to his palace!"
"yes!"
Seeing that Sheng Mingyu didn't get angry, the emperor hurriedly interrupted him.
The eunuch also reacted and ordered Du Changming to be taken away.
The look in his eyes before he left was extremely vicious, which shocked the imperial concubine.
"Your Majesty, why don't you send the Seventh Prince out of Kyoto? His eyes are so scary."
The imperial concubine looked at the emperor with a look of fear on her face. She couldn't let Mingyu be in danger.
The emperor hesitated, and the imperial concubine was so angry that her face turned ashen.
"Your Majesty, are you still going to keep him? If it weren't for him, how could Mingyu have suffered so much injustice for so many years?!"
She looked directly at the emperor, demanding an answer.
The emperor held his forehead with his hand, his face full of pain.
"I know Mingyu has been wronged, but I can't make it too obvious. This is a royal scandal! I don't mind, but what about you and your son? The previous dynasty has long been critical of you, so you'd better be careful."
The emperor tried to persuade her earnestly, but he was afraid that the imperial concubine would get too angry and beat him again.
The imperial concubine has had a bad reputation in recent years. Many people say that she is seductive and seduces the master. This is why he treats her so well. It is all compensation and love.
"you!"
The imperial concubine looked unhappy, but she didn't know how to refute.
She was not a heartless person and knew what the emperor meant.
"Your Highness, there's no need to be so angry. I believe the Seventh Prince has no ill intentions towards me. Moreover, with his abilities, he won't necessarily gain any advantage from me."
Sheng Mingyu watched the quarrel between the two people getting more and more intense, so he had to step in to mediate. A warm feeling flowed through his heart.
From childhood to adulthood, he has never received love from his parents.
"Even though you are in the harem, Your Majesty should be aware of this prince's actions in the previous dynasty. I have countless elite soldiers at my command, and I have court officials on my side. If anyone dares to harm me, Your Majesty will not stand idly by."
In front of his family, Sheng Mingyu was unwilling to hide anything and told them about some of the forces he could.
Not only was the imperial concubine shocked, but even the eighth prince and the emperor were left with their mouths wide open.
They always knew that Sheng Mingyu was powerful, but they didn't know that there were so many forces behind him.
No wonder he has become a thorn in the eyes and flesh of so many ministers, yet has not been hurt yet.
"Brother is really amazing. It seems that my previous worries were all unnecessary. I am waiting for good news from brother."
The eighth prince smiled gently and directly concluded the matter.
The emperor and the imperial concubine could not argue about this matter anymore. With Sheng Mingyu's ability, no matter how much they argued, it would be useless.
The child doesn't need their help at all.
"That……"
The imperial concubine looked at the mess in the hall and wanted to say a few words to Sheng Mingyu, with deep reluctance in her eyes.
I finally got to see my biological son, but time passed so quickly.
"Your Highness, don't worry. I will come to the harem often and we will see each other often. I will look for some gifts outside the palace and send them all to you."
Sheng Mingyu saw what the imperial concubine meant and tried to comfort her.
Sooner or later, we will see each other again.
"Right! Mingyu is right. Today I will give him the right. He can come and go as he pleases in the harem. Don't act like you're reluctant to leave. It's not like you'll never see him again. Be good."
The emperor nodded hurriedly to show his attitude.
"Yes, mother. At worst, I can bring His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in here more often. Then I can bring the Crown Prince's wife along."
The eighth prince spoke with a smile, and the imperial concubine held his hand with a look of relief in her eyes.
This son is her favorite.
"Okay, okay."
"Okay, then you should rest early. I will take the two children back first."
Seeing that the imperial concubine was in a good mood, the emperor couldn't help but come over.
"Yeah." As a result, the imperial concubine was extremely indifferent, and the emperor was embarrassed again.
Sheng Mingyu and the Eighth Prince watched from the side and covered their mouths with their hands while laughing, feeling very happy.
Just then, Biyu came in from outside with a strange look on her face.
"Your Highness, there's a man claiming to be your guard outside to pick you up. He said the Crown Princess is urging you to return."
After she finished speaking, she lowered her head to hide the mockery on her face.
She silently complained in her heart that Gu Yunni didn't know the rules and was not worthy of being a royal wife.
The atmosphere suddenly became awkward.
Even the imperial concubine didn't know what to say. It would be better if they let Sheng Mingyu go back on her own initiative.
But didn’t Gu Yunni and Sheng Mingyu just get engaged? Why is she being so strict?
"No, Yun Ni is the most understanding person. How could she possibly say such a thing? Who is looking for me outside? Let them in."
Sheng Mingyu frowned, a hint of annoyance rising on his face.
These people really can't stand the relationship between him and Gu Yunni, and they try to trip them up again and again.
Everyone waited in the room for a while, and then Shangguan An walked in. Sheng Mingyu's expression suddenly changed.
"What do you mean?"
