Chapter 608: Willing to marry the third son
"Okay." Harueda bowed his head, trusting him as always.
Seeing this, Chai Dong's eyes flashed slightly, and then he turned his head.
Now that the road has been abandoned, the two of them have returned to the banquet hall one after the other.
The banquet hall was still lively, and the ministers toasted the emperor one after another, coaxing the emperor to smile.
When Chunzhi sat back beside the Queen Mother, Concubine Shu also turned her head, she raised the wine glass in her hand, and gestured to Chunzhi.
It's the first time in so many years that this person has been so gentle with her.
It's a pity...... Nothing to be courteous, either a traitor or a thief. Harue really understands this truth too well.
She also raised her wine glass and touched it with Concubine Shu, and the two of them each drank the wine in the cup.
Then, the two of them turned their heads and ignored each other.
When the Queen Mother saw this, her old man raised her eyebrows again. "What happened outside?"
"It's nothing, it's just a small trap." Harukeda whispered.
"Oh? Did you fall in? The Queen Mother asked again.
"Fell in." Harue nodded, "I'll crawl out soon, though." ”
"Oh." The Queen Mother nodded again, and she didn't ask much.
It's just that the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet is staggered, everyone is jubilant, but Chunzhi's mind is becoming more and more complicated.
It was easy to get to the end of the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet, and Chunzhi was about to help the Empress Dowager get up, and the emperor turned to them with a smile: "Mother, imperial sister, please don't go back to Cining Palace first, go to the Qianqing Palace in Shu!" There is one more thing at the moment, which must be dealt with before the end of the year. ”
"What's the matter?" The Queen Mother asked lazily.
The Emperor smiled again. "Don't ask, Queen Mother, it's definitely a good thing anyway."
"Really? Since it's a good thing, the mourning family still has to go and see it. The Queen Mother also bowed her head.
Therefore, after the ministers visited again, they retreated directly from the banquet and went to the emperor's bedroom together.
Entering the inner hall, after the Queen Mother sat down, she asked the emperor: "What good things you said, can you say it now?" ”
"Queen Mother, please don't be impatient, there is still one person who hasn't come!" The emperor laughed.
As soon as he finished speaking, the chamberlain came in to report. "Your Majesty, Chai Yushi is here."
"Let him in!" The emperor hurriedly bowed his head, and then turned back to the queen mother and smiled, "Queen Mother, now the people are finally here!" ”
The Queen Mother bowed her head, and there was not much surprise on her face.
Soon, Chai Dong was seen walking in under the guidance of a eunuch.
After he saluted the people in front of him again, he heard the emperor laugh loudly: "Okay, you Chai Qing, you don't even talk to me first about such an important matter?" If Concubine Ai hadn't found out in time, would you still plan to keep me hidden? ”
Chai Dong was confused. "Your Majesty, what are you talking about? Why can't Wechen understand? ”
"You're still pretending to be stupid in front of me?" The emperor shook his head with a smile and looked at Concubine Shu, "Aifei, you come and talk to him." ”
Concubine Shu also smiled and said: "Little brother, I saw the red silk just now." You quietly withdrew from the banquet, and I still thought you were going out to Gong, but I didn't want you to have a private meeting with the princess of the northern kingdom? And I heard from the people who served you at the time, or did the princess take the initiative to call you? ”
She smiled sweetly, and her tone was full of excitement and joy, but Haruka gritted her teeth when she heard it.
This lady is such a powerful person. After her description of this matter in a few words, it seemed that she missed Chai Dong very much, and it was easy to meet an occasion where she could see Chai Dong, so she called people out and had a tryst!
Anyway, it is she who is shameless, and she is the one who takes the initiative to seek peace, Chai Dong, like his sister Shufei, is the purest and most innocent good person in the world!
Hearing this, Chai Dong's face immediately sank. "I don't know where you heard these words, Lady Niangniang? That's right, the younger brother did meet with the princess of the northern kingdom just now, but it was not the princess who took the initiative to find the younger brother, but when the younger brother's children came to the palace to see the princess two days ago, they had already passed on the words of the younger brother to the princess, telling the princess that the younger brother had something to discuss with her. Therefore, the princess took this opportunity to call her brother out and wanted to talk to him. ”
"Hey, you kid!" Concubine Shu shook her head helplessly, but there was still a smile on the corners of her eyes, "Whether you look for the princess first, or the princess looks for you first, isn't it all the same?" Anyway, you both want to see each other, and you all take the initiative to meet each other, isn't that the truth? ”
"Concubine Niang, what you said seems to be reasonable, but it is actually very wrong." Chai Dong shook his head solemnly, "If you don't know the inside story between the courtier and the princess, when you hear this, you must think that the courtier's brother and the princess have not had an old relationship, so they met in private, but in fact, it is not." Therefore, please also consider the words of the lady, and don't make the words too imaginative. ”
Concubine Shu finally couldn't laugh anymore.
Not only did she not laugh, but even the emperor's smiling face froze.
Chai Dong's words have been made very clear now - he and Chunzhi are not in a relationship!
Then, the ambiguous atmosphere that Concubine Shu had just created was naturally shattered by his cold words.
"But, don't you want to reunite with the Northern Broken Mirror again?" The emperor's voice sank, and he looked at Chai Dong coldly, with a hint of coercion in his eyes, "Your previous story, I have already heard Concubine Ai explain it clearly, in fact, there is nothing wrong with either of you, there are just some misunderstandings." Now, I see that you don't have much hatred for each other, and the northern kingdom often takes a few children into the palace to accompany you, and you have not stopped you, and I think there are still some old feelings between you. In the past two years, Concubine Shu has also mentioned to you many times about remarrying, and you have not agreed, isn't it because you still can't let go of her in your heart? In this case, then take advantage of today's good day of family reunion, and I will give you a marriage! ”
"No need!"
As soon as he finished speaking, two voices rang out in unison.
The emperor's eyes narrowed, and he found that the two voices were coming from the mouths of Chai Dong and Chunzhi, respectively.
The emperor's eyes darkened. "What, Imperial Sister, Chai Qing, don't you want to? Even if it's for the sake of your children, you don't want to? ”
Chai Dong hurriedly raised his head and generously showed the red slap print on his face to the emperor. "Your Majesty, please see, this slap print on Weichen's face happened to be made by the princess just now. Do you think that if she still has an old affection for Weichen, will she be so ruthless to Weichen? And do you think Wechen would be willing to marry a woman who is so fierce to Wechen and go home? ”
Harue nodded as well. "Of course, for the sake of the children's face, I won't worry too much about the past with him, but that doesn't mean that I am willing to forgive him and continue to live with him. When we met today, we were just discussing the family affairs of the boy, and he asked my opinion out of politeness. That is, there is no connection between us anymore except for two children. ”
"Your Majesty, you have a good intention, and Weichen understands it. However, it is true that we cannot reconcile. Chai Dong answered again.
Burst!
As soon as his last word came out, he didn't expect Concubine Shu to burst out laughing.
The Emperor turned back. "Aifei, what are you laughing at?"
"Your Majesty, don't you see it? The little brother and the princess sang and harmonized, how tacit they cooperated! Such a tacit understanding shows that they must be of the same mind. Concubine Shu said softly.
Since they have the same heart, then it is nonsense to say that there is no old love and is unwilling to reconcile. Or to put it bluntly - they just don't want to admit it for the sake of face!
It turned out that Concubine Shu fought with this idea.
Harukeda now understands thoroughly.
Or, she just let herself and Chai Dong reconcile under the pressure of the emperor. In this way, she has become the daughter-in-law of the Chai family again, and she must obey her eldest sister, and everything in the future will be at her mercy. Or, Chai Dong insists that she has no old feelings for herself, then she can force Chai Dong to marry again. As for the person to remarry, it is naturally up to her to choose.
Anyway, she just wants to hold Chai Dong firmly in the palm of her hand. Of course, it would be better if you could catch yourself too.
This woman is indeed distorted. Moreover, the twist is very bad, very bad!
Chunzhi pursed her lips, and she looked at Concubine Shu: "In this way, in fact, I have a better understanding with my little third son." It's still a tom! Shouldn't I marry it more? ”
Concubine Shu's smile suddenly distorted.
