Chapter 121: The Princess Becomes a Princess
It's been three months since Mo Ge left everyone, and Prince Cheng is sluggish every day, as if he has changed into a different person!
On this day, after the next dynasty, the emperor specially invited Prince Cheng to his bedroom, wanting to enlighten his only son who now has high hopes.
Father and son sat opposite each other, but they were silent. The emperor reluctantly smiled bitterly and said, "Cheng'er, for my father, since you left Mo Ge, you can't keep up your spirits every day. It's really rare that you and Mo Ge and his wife have a deep relationship, which touches the father, but this person can't be resurrected from death, not to mention that you are now a father. And you know, I only have you as a son-in-law now, and you are the one who will inherit the great unification in the future! Anyone who has achieved great things, you really can't be too entangled in the love of children, you have to broaden your horizons! Do you think what your father said makes sense? ”
Prince Cheng looked at the emperor with affectionate eyes, just nodded slightly, but did not answer.
The emperor continued: "In addition, Cheng'er, you and Princess Qin are in love, and your father has long been aware of it. If you want to marry Princess Qin as your wife, your father has no objections. If that were the case, the Lord would have been more faithful to me. For Jiangshan Sheji, it is naturally a good thing! ”
Cheng'er responded with a wry smile: "How does my father know that Sister Qin'er is willing to marry me?" ”
When the emperor heard his son say this, he couldn't help but ask, "What's the matter?" Cheng'er. Isn't Princess Qin willing to marry you as a wife? ”
Cheng'er shook her head lightly and said, "Father, if you want Qin'er's sister to marry me as a wife, then can you allow me to never take a concubine?" ”
The emperor was stunned by his son's words, and it took a while to come back to his senses. The emperor was a little surprised and said, "What? Cheng'er, is this a condition that Princess Qin herself put forward to you? ”
Cheng'er shook her head again and replied, "No, father." Here are my thoughts. Since Mo Ge left, I can only tolerate Qin'er in my heart anymore, and the beauty of other women no longer means anything to me! ”
The emperor said earnestly: "Son, you are wrong! In the future, you can only have Princess Qin in your heart, but you must take a concubine. You take a concubine not for anything else, just to pass on the ancestry, no way, this is the family law of the ancestors! Son, who made you born in the royal family! No matter how much you love a woman in your heart, you can't stay with her night and night. That's your life! Think about the words of your father! ”
Prince Cheng sighed and said, "Father, didn't you really want to pass on the throne to the second brother? In that case, it is not a complete violation of the ancestral system! ”
After hearing this, the emperor had a displeased expression on his face and asked, "Cheng'er, don't you love the country and the beauty?" ”
Prince Makoto didn't dare to answer, tears glistening in his eyes. Seeing this, the emperor shook his head and said, "Cheng'er, you want to know how your second brother is overwhelmed, don't you think about the people of Limin?" Besides, your second brother is a concubine, how can he be compared to you? ”
Prince Cheng looked at his father's face and said helplessly: "If my father really wants me, then there is only one request, can my father agree?" ”
The emperor replied with a smile: "Cheng'er, it doesn't matter if you say it, as long as you don't violate the ancestral system, your father will agree to you." ”
Prince Cheng said: "Father, can all my concubines let Qin'er choose?" ”
The emperor pondered for a moment, laughed and said, "Cheng'er, whoever your concubines choose, I don't care!" ”
A slight smile appeared on Prince Cheng's face, and he happily bid farewell to the emperor.
Prince Cheng returned to the mansion, Qin'er had just come out of the nursery, Huaige fell asleep, and several maids stayed in the nursery to take care of the children.
Prince Cheng said excitedly to Qin'er: "Qin'er, can you figure out what happened to my father and me today?" ”
Qin'er said with a displeased expression: "Of course I figured it out!" But I'll tell you, when did I promise to marry you! I only have my brother flame in my heart! ”
Prince Cheng said softly: "Qin'er, Yan. Lan Xue can sacrifice everything for you, just like Mo Ge can sacrifice everything for me! It's normal for you to have him in your heart, but he, like Mo Ge, is no longer in the world, but the happiness of the two of us in the second half of our lives is also what they care about! You tell me? ”
Qin'er sat on the mahogany chair next to the table and cried bitterly, she cried and said, "Brother Cheng, but I don't want to have you with other women, now that Mo Ge is gone, you should belong to me alone!" ”
Prince Cheng walked over, gently wiped away Qin'er's tears, then gently kissed her on the right cheek, and said, "Qin'er, you should know that I have you in my heart." But I'm in this emperor's house, but I can't help myself! However, in the future, you can rest assured that you will decide the candidates for my concubines, and even when they will serve me, you will have the final say. I'm just as much in charge as they are, okay? ”
Qin'er stopped crying and replied, "Brother Cheng, I agree to marry you in three months." I will not care if you take a concubine. But there is one thing I want to make clear to you, I will only agree to it, it is completely for the sake of the people of the world! As the head of the constellation of Qingping, my mission is naturally to benefit the people, but I also understand that no matter how good the swordsmanship is, it is not as good as the word 'power'! I have my eye on my future queen, and I want to use my status to do more good deeds! Brother Cheng, are you sad to hear me say that? ”
Prince Cheng replied with a smile: "Qin'er, where did I get sad! I said a long time ago that you are not a little girl in this boudoir, and your mind should not be on competing with other women for favor! What's more, none of them can compete with you! I have only you in my heart, and this heart can be learned! ”
Qin'er replied with a smile: "Whether it is really 'heaven and earth can be learned', only Brother Cheng, you know in your heart!" Don't have to say it with me to listen! ”
Prince Cheng looked at Qin'er with teary eyes and was silent. There was a complex emotion of pain and happiness in his heart, he really wished that he was not in the royal family at this time, how happy he would be if he were an ordinary person!
