Chapter 343: Marriage

Lu Yuchen's hand clenched into a fist, his gaze looked at Cheng Xi, if his gaze could kill, Cheng Xi would probably have been reincarnated countless times.

And the queen mother also looked at Lu Yuchen at this time, with a hint of provocation in her eyes, yes, she wanted to use the marriage between Li Chulian and Lu Yuchen to make the Protector Mansion stand on the side of the three princes, but now, Concubine Rong and the eldest prince obviously didn't want the seventh prince to marry Cheng Xi, worried that the seventh prince would get the support of General Cheng's mansion and give them one more competitor, and it was very likely that they wanted to let General Cheng support the eldest prince through Lu Yuchen's marriage to Cheng Xi.

Hum! You think it's beautiful! The queen mother has been fighting with Rong Guifei for more than 20 years, she doesn't want to lose to Rong Guifei, even if she can't let Li Chulian marry Lu Yuchen, she can't let Cheng Xi marry Lu Yuchen.

You must know that General Cheng and Cheng Yao's father and son have won the trust of the emperor, and if they can get the support of General Cheng, it will be of great help to compete for the position of crown prince.

The third prince has already married the concubine, Cheng Xi is the concubine of General Cheng, it is impossible to be a side concubine to the third prince, since this is the case, it is better to let Cheng Xi marry the seventh prince, after all, the seventh prince is a lame, even if the emperor loves him again, it is unlikely that he will make him the crown prince.

In this case, why don't you do a personal favor, help the Seven Princes and Cheng Xi, and let them make a pair, the Seven Princes get their wish, maybe they will thank themselves and support the Three Princes. And General Cheng Da will naturally be grateful to himself because his daughter married the Seventh Prince with his help, so he supports the Third Prince.

The queen said: "Miss Cheng is right, as the saying goes: 'Men are afraid of choosing the wrong line, women are afraid of marrying the wrong man', Miss Cheng should open her eyes and see clearly, who is your lover!" “

"The queen mother taught it well, and the courtiers should keep it in mind!" Cheng Xi said respectfully, but she wondered in her heart that this queen mother was not Li Chulian's aunt? She made Li Chulian lose face, the queen didn't blame her at all, but helped herself out of the siege, she was really such a kind person?

Cheng Xike didn't think so at all, but she thought that the queen might have some conspiracy. She held her chin in thought.

"This palace thinks that His Royal Highness King Qin is sincere to you and doesn't care about your appearance at all, you can think about it." The queen mother was very satisfied with Cheng Xi's attitude, she nodded and said.

The seventh prince, King Qin, listened to Cheng Xi's words and said loudly: "Miss Cheng, please believe this king, this king is the confidant you said, the queen mother's words are right, you marry this king, no matter how you say it, it is better than you marrying the man who divorced you as soon as he saw you disfigured!" ”

Lu Yuchen's face turned even darker, he didn't have any special friendship with the Seventh Prince before, but he didn't offend him either, he actually couldn't get along with himself for a woman who was so ugly!

Alas! For the sake of the eldest prince, he actually established a rival relationship with the seventh prince, King Qin, he is really sad. I really don't know if His Royal Highness King Qin has bad eyes, then Cheng Xi's face is densely covered with small red bumps, doesn't His Royal Highness King Qin feel disgusted when he sees it? It's really strange that you still have to fight with yourself for this ugly bastard!

Lu Yuchen knew that he couldn't compete with His Royal Highness King Qin, and he didn't want to say anything anymore, just be an ostrich, as for the eldest prince and Concubine Rong, if they wanted him to marry Cheng Xi, then let them fight for themselves, he didn't want to offend the queen and His Royal Highness the King of Qin.

"His Royal Highness King Qin's words are wrong, Lu Shizi did not withdraw from the marriage because Miss Cheng was disfigured, but there was some misunderstanding between the two of them, and now the misunderstanding has been solved, Lu Shizi also made it clear that he is willing to marry Miss Cheng as the princess, His Royal Highness King Qin is so loved, I'm afraid it's not good?" Rong Guifei said.

Cheng Xi listened to Concubine Rong's words and thought: What is going on with this Concubine Rong? Why do you always want to marry Lu Yuchen? I haven't offended her, why is she doing so much?

She was about to say something, when she heard the queen mother say: "Concubine Rong, how do you know that Lu Shizi didn't withdraw from the marriage because he disliked Miss Cheng's appearance?" He didn't retreat early, he didn't retreat late, but he quit the marriage when Miss Cheng was disfigured, not dislike Miss Cheng's appearance, what else would it be? ”

After speaking, she didn't give Concubine Rong a chance to argue, she turned to the emperor and said: "Your Majesty, the concubine looks at Miss Cheng's outstanding talent, she really likes it very much, she really can't bear to let her marry an inhuman person, and she will suffer for a lifetime, please ask the emperor to decree that Miss Cheng will be married to the Seventh Prince!" ”

The emperor has long seen his precious son's affection for Cheng Xi, and he has long planned to marry him, but watching the queen and Concubine Rong pinching each other, he doesn't understand who Cheng Xi marries and what benefits it is for them.

He still likes the Seven Princes in his heart, and if the Seven Princes' legs can be healed and he can stand up again, he will consider it...... However, even if the seat is not the seventh prince, wouldn't it be better to let Concubine Rong's people get Cheng Xi and help the eldest prince, so that he can compete fairly with the third prince?

What he hates the most is watching their brothers play tricks and fight openly and secretly for the position of the crown prince. Thinking so, the emperor said: "Good! I can see that my seventh child really likes Miss Cheng, so I will marry Cheng Xi, the daughter of King Qin and General Cheng. ”

King Qin immediately saluted and said loudly: "Thank you, Emperor Father!" ”

Although Cheng Xi doesn't want to marry, she has no choice, if she doesn't marry His Royal Highness King Qin, she has to marry Lu Yuchen, the lesser of two evils, King Qin and Lu Yuchen, compared to the two, of course, it is better to marry King Qin, although he doesn't like him, but he should be good to himself and the general's mansion.

Cheng Xi knelt down and said, "Thank you for your grace!" ”

"Hahaha! Good! The emperor stroked his beard and said with a smile.

Cheng Yao finally breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that the marriage between His Royal Highness King Qin and Cheng Xi had been engaged, he was very worried just now, and he was afraid that Cheng Xi would have to marry Lu Yuchen's bastard again because of that Rong Guifei's few words.

And there is a person's mood but he doesn't know how to describe it, he watched Cheng Xi being promised to His Royal Highness King Qin, and felt as if his heart had been cut by a knife, but he was also happy for Cheng Xi, fortunately, she was promised to His Royal Highness King Qin, if she was promised to Lu Shizi, then her life would be over.

It's a pity that his identity and status can't be compared with King Qin and Lu Shizi at all, seeing that they all proposed to Cheng Xi, but he didn't even dare to speak, he really hated himself!

Concubine Rong and the eldest prince's faces were very unsightly, and they were so mixed up by the queen, Cheng Xi was promised to be married to King Qin, and it was also a marriage given by the emperor, which could not be changed. Their plan to win over General Cheng ran aground, and they all held back a wave of anger in their hearts.

And the queen mother was overjoyed, the emperor married Cheng Xi to the king of Qin, then she had the opportunity to marry Li Chulian to Lu Yuchen, her eyes flashed with a cunning light, she decided to strike while the iron was hot, and said to the emperor with a smile: "Your Majesty, as the saying goes, good things come in pairs, since these seven emperors have chosen the princess of Qin, the concubines also want to ask the emperor to marry another couple!" “

The emperor is quite satisfied with the queen's performance today, at least she helped promote the marriage between Lao Qi and Cheng Xi, he asked with a smile: "The queen wants to be a matchmaker?" Who are you going to pull the red line for this time? “

"Your Majesty, your nephew, Lu Shizi of the Protectorate Mansion, and the niece of the concubine, Li Chulian, the concubine of Taishi Li, are of the same age, so it is better to marry them, so it is close to each other!" The queen said and looked at Lu Yuchen, her eyes full of warnings.

Lu Yuchen was shocked, if he agreed to come down, he didn't know how to explain to his father, aunt and eldest cousin when he went back? But if he didn't agree to come down, would he want to go to that broken flower and willow - Cheng Yun?

And Li Chulian's face was full of joy and overjoyed, she lost to Cheng Xi in this hall today, and was angrily reprimanded by the queen mother just now, she originally thought that it was hopeless to marry Lu Yuchen, who would have thought that the queen mother still felt sorry for herself, and she insisted on pointing herself out to Lu Shizi, so that she could get her wish.

The emperor sighed secretly in his heart, although this Li Chulian's piano skills are not bad, but this character really does not dare to compliment, and belittles Cheng Xi in this hall several times, such a narrow-minded person, how can he bear to marry her to his nephew? Isn't that harming him?

And at this time, the emperor already understood why Concubine Rong had always opposed Cheng Xi to marry the Seventh Prince, she wanted to marry Cheng Xi to Lu Yuchen, so that the eldest prince could get the support of General Cheng, but the queen wanted to marry her niece Li Chulian to Lu Yuchen, so that the Protectorate Mansion would support the three princes.

He was very dissatisfied with them racking their brains to help their sons form gangs, he wanted all the princes to show their wisdom in front of him, and his criteria for choosing the prince was to see whether this person had the ability to govern the country and the country, and whether he had the courage to have the world, rather than relying on cleverness and scheming to fight to the death with his brothers.

The emperor did not say anything about the queen's proposal, but said to the young men and girls above the main hall: "The annual feast of flowers will always achieve a lot of happy marriages. “

Concubine Rong Guifei saw that the emperor did not give Lu Yuchen a marriage according to what the queen said, she was overjoyed, she stood up and said to the emperor: Your Majesty, the concubine looks at Lin Yuelan, the daughter of the Ministry of Works, and the girl is as beautiful as a flower, so it is better to marry the prince of Ning Wangfu, how about it? “

When Xiao Yun heard this, her heart suddenly seemed to be blocked by something, she raised her eyes to look at the prince of Ning Wang's mansion, only to see that the prince was also looking at her, the eyes of the two met in the air, her face flushed, and she lowered her head, but her eyes still secretly looked at Ning Wang Shizi.
