Chapter 317 Shocked, Prince An and Princess Yun'an
Lu Yun'an is worthy of Prince An?
What an unprecedented combination.
And isn’t Princess Yun’an childhood sweetheart to Prince Wei?
Because the King of Wei had never married, she was forced by the eldest princess to flee to Qingyun Mountain, where she stayed for five years.
Everyone knew that when Prince Wei returned to Shengjing, she would be the Princess of Wei. Even if someone was interested in the power of the Duke of Song's Mansion, they would not dare to compete with the royal family for her.
But to everyone's surprise, the King of Wei came back and brought Princess Nanxun with him. He even claimed at the New Year's Eve banquet that Princess Nanxun was the future King of Wei's wife.
Princess Yun'an was so angry at her love being betrayed that she stayed in bed during the New Year. She still looks sick and haggard now.
Everyone was still watching to see how this triangle relationship would develop, but who knew that tonight His Majesty would actually marry Lu Yun'an to Prince An.
Everyone was still immersed in shock, except for the two parties who remained calm, especially Lu Yun'an.
When she heard about the arranged marriage, she didn't even blink. If you ignore the way she was about to stand up to express her gratitude, it was as if this marriage had nothing to do with her.
The eldest princess Beigong Yao, who was sitting beside him, turned pale and held Lu Yun'an's hand, "You can't marry Prince An!"
She knew exactly what kind of person Prince An was.
To put it nicely, he is the King of Comfort and Leisure, but to put it bluntly, he is a good-for-nothing who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun!
I am not favored by Your Majesty, my mother's family is of humble origin, and I have no power. After Your Majesty passes away, I will just go to my fiefdom to live out the rest of my life.
How could her daughter live her life like this!
Her daughter should marry King Jing and ascend the throne in the future, instead of marrying that loser!
The more Beigong Yao thought about it, the angrier she became, and resentment towards Emperor Ming and Prince An welled up in her heart.
She lowered her voice and almost gritted her teeth as she said to Lu Yun'an: "I will not allow you to marry Prince An!"
As he said this, he was about to stand up.
Lu Yun'an held Beigong Yao's hand and lowered her eyebrows, "Mother, I understand. It is not appropriate for you to argue with Your Majesty. I will just refuse."
Beigong Yao nodded, her expression eased a little, patted her hands, and said with a look of relief: "Mother knows that you are a good child."
Then I let her go with peace of mind.
Lu Yun'an stood up and walked slowly into the hall. Amid the gazes of the crowd, who were staring at her, sighing, and looking at her like a joke, she straightened her back and knelt in the hall, saying loudly, "Your Majesty, thank you for your grace."
Beigong Yao's face suddenly became gloomy and ugly, her nails were broken, and she stared at Lu Yun'an's back, her temples throbbing with anger.
Rebellious girl!
This rebellious girl!
He actually deceived her!
Beigong Yao was about to stand up angrily, but Duke Song beside her quickly held her down.
Duke Song also had an ugly expression on his face, and lowered his voice and said, "I don't care what you want to do, but this is a marriage granted by His Majesty. If you refute His Majesty in public and refuse the marriage, not only you, but our entire Duke Song's Mansion will not be able to escape!"
Beigong Yao's face was filled with anger, and she snorted coldly, "It is because of your hesitation that Yun An has ended up like this."
She struggled to break free from Duke Song's hand. In her anger, she didn't care about the decades of relationship between husband and wife. She blurted out malicious words, "I'm not as afraid of death as you are. I love my own daughter myself!"
Even if it would make Emperor Ming angry, she would stop this marriage!
"Do you think Yun An can get away with refusing marriage in public and angering the emperor?"
Duke Song reprimanded with a sullen face: "Beigong Yao, are you going to destroy Yun An's life for power?"
Beigong Yao's movement to stand up suddenly froze. Seeing his daughter kneeling in the hall to express her gratitude, all kinds of emotions surged in his heart and his vision went dark.
He couldn't catch his breath and fell headfirst into his seat.
Beigong Yao's movements had long attracted the attention of Emperor Ming. Seeing Beigong Yao faint, Emperor Ming narrowed his eyes and asked, "What happened to the princess?"
Duke Song was keenly aware of the emperor's subtext, and he helped Beigong Yao up and replied to Emperor Ming, "Your Majesty, the eldest princess was worried about my daughter's marriage, and when she heard that Your Majesty had granted her the marriage, she fainted out of joy."
Emperor Ming's sharp eyes were fixed on the couple, staring at them so hard that Duke Song could not help but break out in a cold sweat.
Emperor Ming spoke in a deep voice, unable to tell whether he was happy or angry. "I am happy. I thought the princess had objections to my marriage."
"I dare not."
Duke Song's forehead was sweating. "My daughter's marriage is not yet decided, and the eldest princess is extremely worried. I am grateful and happy that your majesty has granted me the marriage."
After a moment's pause, Emperor Ming withdrew his gaze and said calmly, "Get up."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Duke Song stood up and secretly wiped the sweat from his forehead.
He glanced at Lu Yun'an and sighed inwardly.
Forget it, Yun An has had her own ideas since she was young. Since this is the path she has chosen, he won’t say much.
After Lu Yun'an finished thanking him, Prince An was still silent. Emperor Ming glanced at him impatiently, "Why, do you have any objections?"
Beigong Yi looked at Emperor Ming and scratched his head, "I dare not."
He looked like a fool who didn't understand the situation. He thanked Emperor Ming with a blank face, "Thank you for your grace, father."
The dinner reached this point, symbolizing its end.
Emperor Ming looked tired, and the Empress spoke up at the right time, "Your Majesty, do you have any other political affairs to deal with?"
"Um."
The Queen stood up and announced to everyone that the dinner was over. "Everyone is tired today, please go back early."
"Yes, we respectfully send off Your Majesty, Your Majesty the Queen."
After Emperor Ming and the Empress left first, everyone dispersed one after another.
Lin Miaoyin walked behind, looking at Beigong Yi and Lu Yun'an standing together, then looked at the distraught Beigong Yu, her eyes meaningful.
She seemed to know something unknown.
The situation is starting to become more and more interesting.
I just don’t know if all this is Lu Yun’an’s own choice.
According to the eldest princess's temperament, Lu Yun'an would probably have to face the eldest princess's anger after returning home.
As Lin Miaoyin expected, Lu Yun'an was kneeling on the ground in Duke Song's mansion.
Beigong Yao sat in her seat, her feet were a mess with broken porcelain pieces scattered all over the floor.
She looked at Lu Yun'an below, her chest rising and falling, and asked sternly, "Why did you lie to me!"
"My daughter did not lie to me." Lu Yun'an said calmly, "Your Majesty has granted me a marriage, and there is no turning back."
"So what if His Majesty has granted me the marriage!" Beigong Yao was so angry that her face turned pale. "I will go to the Queen Mother and ask her to take back her decision!"
Lu Yun'an stopped Beigong Yao and said, "Mother, you don't have to. It doesn't matter who you marry, so what difference does it make?"
"How could you marry Prince An?" Beigong Yao slammed the table heavily. "Who is Prince An? He is a piece of trash! How can he be promoted to a high position in the future?"
"Prince Jing is the one chosen by His Majesty. Even though he hasn't made it clear yet, everyone knows that he will be his in the future!"
"I don't ask you to become the mother of a country in the future, but at least you can't live a sloppy life! No, I want to find the Queen Mother!"
Lu Yun'an stood up, her brows cold but her eyes determined, "Mother, my daughter has made up her mind. Even if I go to the Queen Mother, I will report it truthfully."
She looked at Beigong Yao calmly, "You don't have to worry about your daughter anymore. Your mother has been tired all day and should have a good rest. Your daughter will take her leave first."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Beigong Yao looked at her from behind with a look of disbelief, covering her chest and gasping for breath, "Rebellious girl... She is really a rebellious girl who came to collect debts..."
As he said this, he closed his eyes and fainted completely.
