"Who can clear this royal mind? If it really counts, how can such an incident occur? ”

Seeing that Cheng Xiangjin's eyes were red again, Mrs. Cheng tried to ease her tone, took her hand and said, "Don't think about it, nothing else, just based on the identity of Xie Dalang as the prince of the Marquis of Muen's Mansion, the emperor will not treat him like this." Even if you go to jail, it won't be a matter of a day or two. What's more, Xie Hou went into the palace last night to intercede, and with the Empress Dowager here, it will be fine. ”

Seeing Cheng Xiangjin nodding silently, Mrs. Cheng couldn't help but feel sad.

"Right now, the only thing I'm worried about is your family's affairs, there is a holy decree on my head, I'm afraid that Xie Dalang will not be able to resist again. You also have to be mentally prepared. If so......"

Mrs. Cheng stayed and never went down again. No, Xiangjin understood what she meant.

In the current situation, once the Xie family receives the order, the fate between her and Xie Lingfeng will come to an end. Mrs. Cheng reminded her that she had to be prepared in her heart.

The daughter understood that if he accepted the order, the daughter would ...... Let it go. ”

Mrs. Cheng listened, turned around with red eyes and went back to the old man's courtyard.

Cheng Xiangjin looked at Mrs. Cheng's back in a hurry, and she knew very well in her heart. In fact, the whole family doesn't want things to develop to that point at the moment, after all, it is a tacit matter for so long for the two families, not only the parents are optimistic about Xie Lingfeng, but even the old lady has always regarded Xie Lingfeng as her grandson-in-law.

Cheng Xiangjin walked back to the Magnolia Courtyard in a trance, and almost tripped over the stones on the ground several times because of his distraction. When the maids who followed behind her saw her so lost and depressed, they were all scared and didn't dare to come out.

Back in Yulan Courtyard, Cheng Xiangjin didn't want to go back to the room, so he sent the girls away and sat alone under the eaves of the porch in a daze.

I don't know how long it took, there was a sound of footsteps outside the hospital, and Cheng Xiangjin looked up expressionlessly when he heard the sound, and found that it was his brother Cheng Chuyang.

Cheng Chuyang knew that today was the day when the Xie family came to propose marriage, but he was busy with business, so he went to the ordnance prison after breakfast. He also took a break at noon before he learned that Xie Lingfeng was being pressed. Upon hearing the news, he hurriedly returned after arranging official business.

Looking at his sister's spiritless eyes under her delicate makeup, Cheng Chuyang frowned deeply.

At the moment, he just wanted to grab Xie Lingfeng's neck and punch him hard!

Damn!

I knew that I didn't let this flowery radish get close to my sister, if he didn't restrain himself on weekdays, how could he provoke other girls to ask him to marry him?

I really want to rush to him and beat him up when I think about it!

Cheng Xiangjin saw that his face was gloomy and seemed to be holding back the storm, so he had to speak first.

"Why did my brother come back so early? Are you done with business? ”

When Cheng Chuyang saw her asking, the anger in his heart became more and more churning.

"When this kind of thing happens at home, where can I manage official business or not?"

Cheng Xiangjin rarely saw him so irritable, and lowered his head and asked in a humming voice, "Brother has listened?" ”

Cheng Chuyang let out a long breath and said in a deep voice: "Hmm! Don't worry, if that son dares to accept the holy decree, brother, I will be the first to go over and vent your anger. You have to hit him until he vomits blood! Look at him at three and four, messing with peach blossoms! ”

Cheng Xiangjin knew that this was angry talk, and smiled reluctantly, "He knows kung fu, and my brother is afraid that he can't beat him." ”

Cheng Chuyang didn't expect that she could still joke at this juncture, and snorted disdainfully, "Look at him dare!" ”

The brother and sister were silent for a long time before Cheng Xiangjin raised his eyes and said:

"This matter is so sudden, presumably Xie Fu and he didn't know about it before. Why is my brother so angry? It's white, and it's also caused by that holy decree. My sister has already thought about it, and if it is the royal grace and the will is withdrawn, everyone will naturally be happy. If not, our whole family can just assume that this has never happened. Fortunately, they are not in the future and propose, which is not much of a loss for our Cheng Mansion! ”

Cheng Chuyang looked up in disbelief, "You really think so?" ”

"Naturally!"

Cheng Chuyang saw her so thoroughly, and his angry heart suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. He was still worried that she would come, but seeing that she was already prepared in her heart, there was nothing to do.

"That's good! That...... I'm going to see if my father has come back, you...... Let's stay in the courtyard for a while, it's cooler outside! ”

Cheng Xiangjin: ......

In the afternoon, Cheng Fuyin, who had entered the palace, finally came back under the scorching sun. As soon as he entered the house, he went straight to his study, and said to the housekeeper as he walked: "Go and call Jin'er!" ”

"Yes!"

After half a cup of tea, Cheng Xiangjin, who had already changed out of the new clothes in the morning, followed Steward Yu all the way to Cheng Fu Yin's study.

Cheng Xiangjin knew that her father's choice to talk to her here must be important. It is likely that the Xie family has already received the holy decree. Otherwise, with his father's usual style of acting, good things will definitely be notified to the old man as soon as possible. Now as soon as I enter the house, I will look for her first, obviously, it doesn't seem to be a good thing!

Sure enough, when she sat down in the study, Cheng Fuyin opened her mouth directly.

"Xie Hou took the order for his son, and their father and son must have returned home at this time."

may have expected that this would be the case, Cheng Xiangjin's heart was not as lost as it was at noon.

"Father, do you know whose girl it is?"

"The Cui family, the sister of Princess Changyang, Cui Wanhua."

Hearing this name, Cheng Xiangjin was suddenly stunned, "How could it be her?" ”

Listening to Xie Miaojing's meaning before, didn't the Cui family plan to send her to the palace? Right now, how could the emperor suddenly point her out to Xie Lingfeng?

Cheng Fuyin thought that she was unwilling to react so much, and sighed and said, "It's her." Listening to the father-in-law in the palace, this family matter was asked by the Cui family themselves, and the queen mother also agreed to talk. ”

"Does the Empress Dowager know about this?"

"The Empress Dowager knows it. However, now that the new emperor has ascended the throne, Empress Cui is no longer as tolerant of good words as before. The Empress Dowager is getting old again, and many things can't be argued! ”

Seeing that she was listening patiently, she continued: "In order to save his son last night, Xie Hou not only begged the Empress Dowager, but also begged the Empress Dowager. The results are all the same. After all, the decree of marriage represents the royal grace and glory, and if it is disrespectful, it is the royal shame! Even if the Emperor Taishang had a heart for him, he would not allow the Xie family to do anything disrespectful! After all, not long after the new emperor ascended the throne, it was the time to establish his majesty, and at this time, he swept the royal face, no matter who it was, the people in the royal family would not allow it! No matter how noble the Muenhou Mansion is, it is also a royal courtier. Even if there are 10,000 reluctances to this will in your heart, for the sake of the whole house, you have to grit your teeth and kowtow to thank you. After all, a companion is like a tiger! ”

Cheng Fuyin saw her bow her head and was silent, and her eyes also flashed with unbearability. It's just that in the current situation, he, as a father, has to listen to her about things.
