Chapter Sixty-Eight: If You Have the Ability, You Can Beat Me to Death
After the birthday ceremony, Zhou Jianxiong asked Zhou Xiya and the others to return to their home, and Zhou Jianxiong went to meet the emperor.
In the imperial study, the emperor sat casually behind the imperial table, looked at Zhou Jianxiong who was kneeling on the ground, and looked at him deeply before he said, "Get up"
"Your Majesty, the marriage proposal of the three princes, Weichen also learned today, the three princes are extraordinary, not the daughter of Weichen can be worthy, so this marriage, Weichen does not agree, Weichen will arrange a marriage for the little girl when she goes back, let her out of the cabinet." After Zhou Jianxiong finished speaking, he glanced at the emperor's face, and lowered his head again.
"Your loyalty, I know, this matter is the third prince's recklessness, but it's just a concubine, if the third child really wants to marry her, I won't stop it, I know that this concubine is not your most valued daughter, Jianxiong, you are the important minister I left to the next emperor, you should understand what to do." The emperor's fingers tapped lightly, and the sound seemed to hit Zhou Jian's ambition.
"Yes, Weichen understands" Zhou Jianxiong replied respectfully, it seems that His Majesty will not suspect that he has something to do with the third prince in this matter.
"It's not too early, step down." The emperor waved his hand, and Zhou Jianxiong retreated.
The emperor rubbed his forehead, a little tired, "Your Majesty, this is the ginseng soup boiled by the new people who have entered the palace, and your Majesty is really tired during this period of busy state affairs." The chief eunuch came over with a tray.
"If it's just a state affair, I don't care, but it's a pity that these sons of mine are not honest and actually cause trouble for me." The emperor drank the ginseng soup in one gulp and put the bowl on the table heavily.
The eunuch didn't dare to say anything.
"Where did the crown prince and the third prince go after the banquet was dispersed?" The emperor asked.
"The two highnesses are now at the queen's mother's." The eunuch hurried to report.
"Hmph, it's all the queen's habit of being the third," the emperor shook his head.
Inside the Queen's palace at this time. The queen's phoenix robe swept away, and a beautiful porcelain cup fell to the ground, splashing everywhere.
"How could you do such a foolish thing, do you sincerely want to be angry with this palace, do you know what your majesty thinks about this farce you made today, and what do you think about the hundred officials." The queen loudly scolded the three princes.
The prince sat on the side, holding a teacup, tasting tea in a good mood, and for the first time found that the tea here was so delicious. Alas. This is the first time he has seen his mother reprimand his third brother like this, which is really happy.
"Queen Mother, Erchen doesn't know how it could be like this, I want to marry Zhou Jianxiong's daughter. But she had a brain injury. The son can't marry a woman with health problems. are all Zhou Jianxiong's daughters, and Zhou Jianxiong can still care about it. The third prince knelt on the ground and pleaded.
"How can it be the same, if you are a concubine. Look at whether your father has you in his eyes, your brain was eaten by dogs, why are you getting more and more confused, I doubt that you are my son, and you actually said such nonsense. The queen knocked the head of the third prince hard.
"The queen mother is angry, maybe the third brother really likes General Zhou's concubine, so he will propose to his father, this person will inevitably do something out of the ordinary in the face of love." The prince pleaded openly, but it added fuel to the fire.
Princes like them, where do they know what love is, that is, love is in front of them, and they don't care about it, no matter how beautiful love is, it is not as important as interests.
"Tell me, did you get involved with that Zhou family's concubine?" The queen immediately understood what the prince meant, and stared at the third prince.
The third prince replied a little slowly, and the queen had already seen the result from the expression of the third prince, and couldn't help but take a step back and cover her chest, "You...... You...... You're going to me off."
"Queen Mother, Queen Mother, you quickly dissipate your anger" The prince hurriedly supported the queen "Third brother, don't hurry up and apologize to the queen mother, for the sake of a woman, you see how angry you are with the queen mother." ”
"Queen Mother, Erchen knew that he was wrong, and Erchen was only thinking about doing this to win over General Zhou, and I didn't expect to make such a situation today." The third prince knelt and moved a few steps to pull the hem of the queen's skirt.
"I'm telling you, I don't agree with this marriage, that woman is a mourning star, this palace will never allow her to enter the door, you give me the heart to die, tomorrow you will go to your father to admit your mistake, ask your father for forgiveness, this incident will be as if it never happened. If you can't do it, this palace will not have you as a son. The queen pointed to the third prince and warned.
"Yes, the son knows" The third prince hurriedly agreed.
Outside the gate of the palace, there were the crown prince and the third princess, the two of them guarding the door, naturally hearing the quarrel inside, the crown princess looked at the ugly face of the third princess very happily.
The third prince really stole chickens and rice this time, the woman didn't marry, and was reprimanded by the queen, telling them to worry about Zhou Jianxiong and want to seize the crown prince's position, but now it's unlucky.
"Brother and sister, you have to persuade the third brother when you go back, you can't do such a thing next time, what kind of woman can't get it from a family like ours, is it worth making the father and queen so unhappy for a woman? Brother and sister, your news is too backward, there are other women around the third brother, you don't even know, if you stop it, where will there be such a situation today. The crown princess looked anxious for the third princess.
"Don't worry about the princess, we're fine." The three princesses can't get out of the fire.
"Returning home" just at this time, the three princes walked out, and the three princesses hurriedly followed.
Zhou Jianxiong returned to the mansion, went directly to the study, and put the cloak on the side, "Go and call me the eldest lady, the second miss, and the Bai family."
"Yes," the butler hurriedly asked.
Soon, the three arrived, and the three stood in the house.
Zhou Jianxiong looked at the two daughters in front of him, waved his hand to Zhou Xiya, and asked her to go aside, and she would talk about her affairs later.
Zhou Xiwan was very nervous, and when she came back from the palace, she hurried to her mother to discuss how to deal with it, but unfortunately the Bai family didn't have any good solutions.
Zhou Jianxiong looked at the daughter in front of him, he really couldn't understand her more and more, he had clearly warned her not to approach the third prince again, just by virtue of the previous contact, how could the third prince rashly come out to propose.
Zhou Jianxiong was also young, and he knew some subtle changes in a woman's transformation from a girl to a woman, and he didn't pay attention to it when he came back in the past two days, but now when he takes a closer look, between his daughter's eyebrows and eyes, no matter how he looks at it, it is the posture that a woman should have.
"You say, what did you do?" Zhou Jianxiong was furious, what kind of mother has what kind of daughter, I really don't know the inspection.
"I ...... I didn't do anything, I don't know why the third prince suddenly proposed. Zhou Xiwan hurriedly waved her hand and pretended to be innocent, she was a little afraid of her father's current appearance.
Slap, Zhou Jianxiong slapped Zhou Xiwan in the face, "You don't know? You don't know that you're going to commit to him, he's going to propose in public, you don't know how to write shame. ”
"What if I just did it, if you have the ability, you will kill me, you have never had my daughter in your eyes, how have you ever thought about it, know what I want, what I did wrong, I am just planning a bright future for myself, what is wrong with me." Zhou Xiwan covered her face and glared at Zhou Jianxiong with hateful eyes. (To be continued......)
