Chapter 126 The Third Prince and Zhao Lingyun, this pair of idiots
The people watching the show in the hall were so happy, they all felt that they had made the right choice to come to the Mid-Autumn Festival dinner. Each wave was so exciting! And the Third Prince was really a romantic man, even raising the status of the girl he liked.
In the eyes of men, the Third Prince is a symbol of incompetence and sentimentality. However, in the eyes of the ladies, he is a very good husband.
The Third Prince and Concubine Rong were filled with resentment when they saw that Marquis Wu'an had given them no respect at all. Furthermore, the Third Prince, seeing that Marquis Wu'an had not spoken up for Zhao Lingyun, was even more certain that Yun'er must be having a hard time in the Marquis's mansion, which further aroused his desire to protect her.
Intelligence is a good thing, but unfortunately the third prince does not have it at this moment.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I really like Yun Zhao Lingyun, and I hope you will agree to my wish." The third prince said this with such sincerity.
Rong Fei started crying again. She didn't like this concubine from the Marquis of Wu'an's mansion. Now she had her son under her thumb. If she became the principal concubine, would her son still see her as his mother? She was determined not to allow it.
The emperor saw that more and more people were affected and more and more things were exposed. He just wanted to make a quick decision. He looked at Zhao Lingyun and said directly:
"Since the emperor is so fond of you, you should be his concubine! You don't need to participate in the selection, just enter the palace as soon as possible to accompany the emperor! The emperor likes you so much, I think you are also a woman of high moral character, you don't care about status, and you don't want the emperor to bear the crime of unfilial piety!"
If the emperor wants to deal with a woman in the harem, it would be easy for him to do so. Moreover, the emperor also hates people who easily stab the family. He never knows when the benefits will come and he will take action against his woman at any time.
The emperor didn't know whether to praise his son for his infatuation or for his poor eyesight.
What could Zhao Lingyun do after the emperor said this? What reason did she have to say no? She had no reason at all. She could only pretend to be indifferent and kowtow to the emperor, "This subject is willing. Thank you for your grace."
At this time, Zhao Lingyun not only hated the ruthlessness of the people in Wu'an Marquis' Mansion, but also thought that since she had lost the position of the principal wife, she had to hold on to the heart of the Third Prince and then plan for the future, otherwise she would be really finished.
And this bet was right for her. When the Third Prince heard her say this, he looked at her even more passionately.
When the Third Prince saw that Zhao Lingyun, who was so proud, was willing to be his concubine even though she couldn't win the position of the principal wife, he felt that he loved her more than before. These people wanted to marry him for power, but only Yun'er truly loved him.
The third prince looked at the people in Wu'an Marquis's Mansion again, especially Zhao Lingmeng and Wu'an Marquis. He helped Yun'er remember these people, and one day he would not let them have an easy time.
Marquis Wu'an is such a smart man. He crawled back from a pile of dead bodies. Just by looking at the third prince's eyes, one can tell what he is thinking.
Marquis Wu'an thought that it seemed that he could no longer control this girl, so he would just wait and see. The emperor had so many princes, and he didn't believe that he would be the one to be with such a sentimental guy until the end.
Fortunately, after this incident, everything went smoothly. After the banquet was over, the Third Prince ran to Marquis Wu'an to support his beloved.
"Lord Zhao, Yun'er is my concubine. You must not neglect her, or I will not forgive you."
If Wu'an Hou hadn't wanted to hand over his military talisman before, he would have been more wary of this. But now that he had handed in his talisman and was no longer serving, he was just holding a sinecure, not fearing the Emperor's suspicion at all. Furthermore, his daughter was so capable, and he was still as cautious as before, which only aroused suspicion.
So Marquis Wu'an reached out to support his wife, saying, "Since she is the Third Prince's person, you can take her away! This old minister and I will take our leave now."
After Marquis Wu'an finished speaking, he bowed to his wife and left without even looking at Zhao Lingyun.
The Third Prince was stunned as he watched the Marquis of Wu'an and his wife leave. Why was this scene so different from what he had imagined? Shouldn't he have immediately promised to treat Yun'er well?
Zhao Lingyun was stunned for a moment when she saw this. She also knew the importance of this matter. If she left with the Third Prince like this, it would be illegitimate and would be a stain on her in the future. She could only plead with the Third Prince and chase after Wu'an Hou and his father.
When Zhao Lingyun caught up with Marquis Wu'an and his wife, they had already boarded the carriage. Zhao Lingyun could only call out softly from outside, "Father, Mother."
"Get out of the carriage at the back." Marquis Wu'an was getting angry just by looking at his daughter. She hadn't even gotten married yet, but she acted like her family had treated her unfairly. What a shameless person.
Zhao Lingyun looked at the carriage behind her, where the servants were sitting, and stubbornly stood there, hoping that this would force the Marquis of Wu'an to give in. She was gambling that her father wouldn't dare completely break off relations with the Third Prince.
Unfortunately, she lost the bet, and the Marquis of Wu'an simply ordered the coachman to leave, leaving only the dust behind. She didn't dare to make a scene now, as there were servants following behind! She was afraid that if she made a scene, her father would expel her from the family overnight.
Zhao Lingyun could only walk towards the carriage behind with a wronged look on her face and got on the carriage reluctantly. Those people did not dare to offend her and could only squeeze in as much as possible to make room for her.
No matter how unwilling Zhao Lingyun felt, it was just like that. After all, she didn't know how miserable her future in the mansion would be! She didn't dare to embarrass these servants anymore.
Zhao Lingyun thought that when she returned home, her stepmother would at most reduce her treatment. She wouldn't be staying in the mansion for long anyway, so she thought she just had to endure it.
But what she hadn't expected was that her stepmother's tactics were so drastic. Marquis Wu'an and his wife got off the carriage, and his wife immediately ordered the servants, "Let all the masters of the mansion gather in the main courtyard, including all the concubines."
Seeing the furious look on Wu'an Marquis's wife's face, the servants didn't dare to delay and immediately ran in to inform them. When Wu'an Marquis and his wife arrived at the inner courtyard, everyone was waiting in the main courtyard.
Marquis Wu'an and his wife sat directly on the main seat above. Looking at Zhao Lingyun who followed behind, his wife shouted, "Kneel down!"
Zhao Lingyun also knew that she could not escape. Everyone else was shocked by the aura of the wife of Marquis Wu'an and did not dare to speak for a while.
Zhao Lingyun's aunt, Aunt Fang, saw this and knew her daughter was in trouble. She immediately knelt beside Zhao Lingyun and kowtowed, saying, "Madam, please spare Yun'er! She is still young and naive."
