He knew Xie Tingzhou was unwilling, otherwise he wouldn't have allowed him to take her into the palace, so for the sake of father-son relationship, he didn't mention it at all.
As for the two sons, they are both bachelors anyway. At most, the daughter of a merchant in the Qin family can become a concubine, which will not affect their ability to marry a principal wife.
Xie Tingzhou shook his head, "That woman is already pregnant with the Li family's bloodline."
The emperor responded with an "Oh," and said, "That won't do."
Royal bloodlines cannot be confused; he couldn't possibly let his son become someone else's cheap father.
etc!
The emperor looked at Xie Tingzhou with a hint of resentment.
Has he not been giving enough fatherly love lately?
Why would you let your son be someone else's cheap father?
Xie Tingzhou also suspected his two younger brothers; how could he possibly let them have any connection with the Qin family?
He looked at Chen Banjun and said, "Eunuch Chen, would you like me to send you a wife?"
It's the kind of buy-one-get-one-free deal, and it even comes with a child and support in old age.
Chen Banjun suddenly looked up.
Is there anything else about him?
"Your Highness, but this old servant..."
This old servant is a eunuch, how can I get married?
Xie Tingzhou laughed, "Haven't you always wanted to adopt a child? Wouldn't it be more reliable to watch a child being born yourself?"
Qin Xue knew that Li Shuhuai had a fiancée, yet she still colluded with him and became pregnant. Her purpose in coming to Beijing was impure, yet Xie Tingzhou betrothed her to Chen Banjun without any conscience or pressure.
Upon hearing this, the emperor's eyes lit up. "I think this idea is good."
Xie Tingzhou lowered his eyes and took a sip of tea.
He knew that as long as he first sent it to the inner palace and then assigned it to Chen Banjun, the emperor would have no objection.
Unaware that his son had outmaneuvered him, the emperor made the final decision: "Old Chen, it's settled then. How you marry will be up to the Crown Prince."
Chen Banjun wiped his eyes gratefully and said, "This old servant thanks Your Highness for remembering this old servant."
The idea of adopting a child was something he said to the Crown Prince before he disappeared, and the Crown Prince still remembered it after all these years.
Waaaaah, I'm so touched.
While the three of them were discussing their plans, Ye Zhen also began to take action.
