Chapter 419 Is my Regent Palace short of money?
A fierce look flashed across Mu Chengyan's face.
Chen Guangzhi racked his brains at home.
Mu Chengyan guessed correctly. He really hoped that Chen Meihua's family would be harmonious. After all, they were married, so he should encourage them to reconcile rather than divorce, right?
Chen Guangzhi's mind was in a mess.
In the end, even though he clenched his fists, he still couldn't escape the feudal thoughts and went to the palace.
Chen Guangzhi went directly to find Yun Zhao.
Yun Zhao was not too surprised, as she knew that Chen Meihua and Mu Chengyan had met before.
Chen Meihua is smart. People who can build such a big business are all very smart and can understand things quickly.
"You mean, we want to take Chen Meihua back?" Yun Zhao asked.
Chen Guangzhi nodded.
Yun Zhao asked, "You said ten days before, but now it's not time yet."
"Yes," Chen Guangzhi lowered his head, looking a little ashamed. "But today, Mu Chengyan came home and said that he wanted to live a good life with my daughter. Queen Mother, I hope you can understand my good intentions as a father. I am old, and I hope my daughter will have a strong support in the future. Mu Chengyan is already the best person I can see."
Chen Guangzhi did not say that Mu Chengyan had the imperial edict of succession in his hand.
But he knew in his heart that Mu Chengyan would definitely become the emperor in the future. So as long as his daughter sat in a high position, regardless of whether she had love or not, Chen Meihua would be able to live a rich and prosperous life and be as calm and composed as Yun Zhao.
Power is very important in life.
Yun Zhao naturally understood what Chen Guangzhi meant. She simply asked, "Have you asked your daughter's opinion? Does she want to go back with you?"
Chen Guangzhi immediately said, "Of course. This girl is obsessed with Mu Chengyan. When we first sent her here, she complained a lot. Now that I'm here to pick her up, and it was Mu Chengyan who asked me to do so, she's naturally happy. There's no reason for her not to want to go back with me."
Yun Zhao nodded and asked Fu Hai to call Chen Meihua.
On the way, Fu Hai had already told Chen Meihua what Chen Guangzhi meant.
So, the first thing Chen Meihua said when she entered the house was, "Dad, I'm planning to go back for the time being."
Chen Guangzhi was stunned.
"ah?"
"You won't come back with me?"
"No, it was Mu Chengyan who told me to go back to the Regent's Palace and live a good life. He also said that he had sent those three flowers back to their hometown and that they would not appear again or compete for your favor. Mu Chengyan's determination shows that he still has you in his heart. You should go back to the Mu family and live a good life."
Chen Meihua said, "I'm not going back."
Chen Guangzhi frowned, "Why? Didn't you say before that you wanted to be with Mu Chengyan for the rest of your life?"
You've only been in the Cining Palace for a few days, and you've changed your mind?
"Dad knows you've been wronged this time, but a married woman should obey her husband. You're going to find someone to lean on after all, right?"
Chen Meihua stood straight. "Dad, I understand now. The strongest support in a person's life is oneself. Mu Chengyan is not my support, nor will he be the Chen family's support. He has never had any interest in me. I have thought it through in the past few days. I want to divorce Mu Chengyan."
Chen Guangzhi was shocked. These were the words his daughter could say.
"You...it was you who insisted on marrying Mu Chengyan."
"You also said that suffering or pain is all fate. Why are you saying this now?"
Chen Guangzhi's pupils were shocked and his whole body was in a mess.
"Yes, that's what I said at the beginning, but now I don't say that anymore."
"Anyway, I want to divorce Mu Chengyan."
"If you can handle this matter for me, I will go home with you. Otherwise, I will die of old age in the Cining Palace."
After saying that, Chen Meihua walked away holding up her skirt.
Chen Guangzhi stood there, looking at Yun Zhao, then at Chen Meihua's leaving back, and sighed deeply in helplessness.
"Then I'll trouble the Queen Mother to take care of me for a while. I have a bad temper, so please forgive me."
Yun Zhao looked at Chen Guangzhi's helpless expression, nodded and smiled, "Chen Meihua has a straightforward personality, I like her very much.
Yun Zhao sat in his seat and watched Chen Guangzhi running around for his daughter.
When Chen Meihua was going to marry Mu Chengyan, Chen Guangzhi must have put a lot of effort into it.
People all over Kyoto were saying that the girl from the Chen family had no shame and was clinging to men. Later, she got married. People outside were saying that the girl from the Chen family was so tough that she forced a man who didn't have her in his heart to marry her.
Now, if they want to divorce, it will be another disaster for the Chen family's reputation.
But Chen's father accepted his fate and went through wind and rain without any complaints.
Chen Guangzhi was not qualified as a subject and an uncle, but he put a lot of effort into being a father.
To be honest, Yun Zhao was a little envious.
Women in the world have to endure many hardships. Once they are married, if they want to divorce, their parents’ family must have the support.
Not everyone has this confidence.
Therefore, many women have a hard time living after getting married, but Chen Meihua didn't have to. If she was wronged, she would divorce if someone asked for it.
Yun Zhao supported his chin and sat in the room for a long time.
If her parents were still alive, they would dote on her like this.
Although they were not as confident as the Chen family, the love they gave her was no less than that of any other parents.
That day, Yun Zhao sat in front of the hall for a long time.
When Qicai sent Chen Guangzhi away and was about to go in, someone pulled him back.
Qicai turned around and saw Xie Jingmo who had been waiting at the door for who knows how long.
"General Xie, why don't you go in?"
Xie Jingmo said, "Don't go in yet."
Qicai was puzzled, "Why?"
Xie Jingmo's eyes were filled with regret and self-blame. His voice was very soft, very soft, "Yun Zhao misses his parents."
Chen Guangzhi lingered at the gate of the Regent's Palace for a long time.
When Mu Chengyan came back from outside, he saw Chen Guangzhi at the door.
He came alone and didn't bring Chen Meihua back?
Mu Chengyan frowned and called out, "Father-in-law."
The word "father-in-law" made Chen Guangzhi sigh. He smiled and said, "The Regent is back."
The polite address of the Regent made Mu Chengyan's heart alarm bells ring.
However, his expression remained unchanged, and he said calmly, "Let's go in and talk."
Chen Guangzhi followed him in.
"You mean..." Mu Chengyan suspected that he had misheard, "divorce?"
Chen Guangzhi nodded, "Yes, that's what the girl meant."
Mu Chengyan laughed, his tone flat. "Master Chen, do you think I can just come and go from the Regent's Palace as I please? You were the ones who talked about the marriage, and now, after just over a month, you want a divorce? Do you think I, the Regent, am a joke to your Chen family?"
Mu Chengyan spoke sharply, his eyes icy cold, and pressed down on Chen Guangzhi.
Chen Guangzhi shuddered. "That's not what I meant. It's just that you don't admire my daughter, and she really can't marry into the Regent's Palace. Look, we don't want the dowry. Just consider it an apology and let's part ways amicably. Okay?"
Mu Chengyan sneered when he heard this, "Master Chen, do you think that my Regent Palace is short of money?"
