354. The reason for the marriage

As Chu Ci and Qin Fengyi both got the same news, some of the spies in the palace who had not moved for a long time also began to become active. And in just a few days, the Prince's Mansion ushered in a holy decree.

"Fengtian carrier, the emperor edict said, Xu An, the daughter of the Xu family, is both talented and beautiful, and knowledgeable...... "Father-in-law Wan, as before, also read in one breath," ...... I am very happy, and I specially give the prince Chu Ci as the prince's side concubine, choose a good day and an auspicious day, and complete the wedding! Chin this! ”

"The retainers take the order."

Chu Ci led Liu Yue to listen to the decree together, and he didn't know what it was about, but he didn't want it to be a marriage decree. As a result, Liu Yue's face turned a little pale, and Chu Ci's face was extremely ugly.

Seeing this, Gonggong Wan didn't dare to say much, only sighed lightly and put the holy decree respectfully into Chu Ci's hand, and said, "His Royal Highness the Prince, Crown Princess, get up quickly." ”

"Why did my father suddenly decree this?"

After waiting for Chu Ci to help Liu Yue get up, he spoke directly. And although Gonggong Wan is the person who delivers the decree, he actually doesn't know why the emperor is like this.

Under this holy decree suddenly, it can be said that Gonggong Wan did not hear the slightest rumor. As for Gonggong Li, he was also surprised when he handed over the holy decree to him.

If before the emperor wrote the holy decree, Wan Gonggong learned that he might be able to report the news and delay for some time, but this holy decree had already been written, and Wan Gonggong would have no way to do it.

can only come to the prince's mansion with this holy decree that will make Chu Ci unhappy, and announce the decree according to the emperor's will. As for the rest, Grandpa Wan also has no scruples.

"The old slave doesn't know, he only knows that some time ago, the people of the Liu family came diligently, and the emperor was happy to get close to the Liu family." Gonggong Wan talked about this again, "It stands to reason that this person from the Liu family should not advocate marrying a side concubine to His Royal Highness, after all, the crown princess is the concubine of the Liu family, so this kind of approachβ€”β€”"

"Yue'er?"

Before Father-in-law Wan finished speaking, Liu Yue was a little unable to stand, her face was not good-looking, she held her waist with her hand, and looked at Father-in-law Wan's eyes in disbelief.

Yes, don't say that Gonggong Wan can't figure it out, even Liu Yue himself can't figure it out. She is the concubine of the Liu family, and she is also the only daughter, even if she has a concubine, it has nothing to do with their interests.

How, how could you advocate marrying a side concubine for Chu Ci? Or Xu An of the Xu family? You must know that Xu An has been interested in Chu Ci for so many years, and in the past, I don't know why Xu An was so obsessed with a gentleman, but now that he knows the reason, how can Liu Yue feel at ease?

Anyway, Xu An and Chu Ci have known each other for many years, and they have done a lot of things for Chu Ci over the years. Counting these relationships, Liu Yue felt that he couldn't compare to Xu An.

Even if she is pregnant now, Liu Yue has little confidence.

What's more, the matter of Zhou Ji Mipu has not yet been settled, and the person who did something to Zhou Ji Mipu is still locked up in the dungeon of the Prince's Mansion.

That person is also a member of the Liu family.

"I'm fine." Liu Yue pursed her lips, her eyes drooped slightly, looking at Chu Ci's hand that gently stroked her arm, and she felt more and more breathless in her heart, "I just feel a little sleepy and want to go back to rest." ”

Hearing Liu Yue say this, Chu Ci naturally had no reason to stop him.

"Good life to take care of the crown princess."

"Yes."

Chu Ci's instructions were naturally said to Yuan'er, she was the maid brought by Liu Yue from the Liu family, and she was also the person she trusted the most in this prince's mansion. Although the people that Chu Ci arranged for Liu Yue to be by Liu Yue's side are also his confidants and trustworthy people, for Liu Yue, it is still Yuan'er who is the most convenient to use, and she can trust her the most. Small composition

The most important thing is that if it was in the past, Liu Yue would only feel that Chu Ci valued her and the child in her womb, but now, letting her own people take care of Liu Yue will inevitably make Liu Yue feel that Chu Ci is letting people spy on her.

That result is not what Chu Ci wants.

"Zhou Ji Mipu, the crown princess knows?" Seeing Chu Ci's pale face, Gonggong Wan was also a little more cautious when he spoke, "Although this has something to do with the Liu family, the old slave feels that it may not be the case." ”

"What to say."

Chu Ci's mind followed Liu Yue a little far, and at this time, listening to Wan Gong's public speech, he could come back to his senses. As Zhou Yunxi said, Chu Ci's relationship and concern for Liu Yue may have reached a height that Chu Ci himself had not noticed.

Of course, things are developing in such a direction, which is a good thing for Chu Ci and Liu Yue. After all, it means that Chu Ci really cares about Liu Yue, doesn't it?

"Lord Liu and Lord Xu had disagreements in the past, even if they have any common interests now, there is no reason to make a statement in front of the emperor that you will marry Miss Xu as the prince's concubine."

"The old slave felt that there might be other hidden secrets in this matter." As he spoke, Gonggong Wan saluted Chu Ci, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince should see it more clearly than the old slave, and His Royal Highness the Prince, who still needs this matter, thinks about it, if there is a need for the old slave, the old slave will not refuse." ”

"Grandpa Wan doesn't have any clues?" Chu Ci's brows furrowed a little deeper after listening to Gonggong Wan's words, "There is no news in the palace?" ”

"The emperor may have known that the old slave and the prince have dealings, so many things are avoided by the old slave." Gonggong Wan said with a long sigh, "Your Highness, the old slave suspects that the person who has a close relationship with the emperor in the palace is not Lord Liu's person, and Zhou Ji Mipu is not the hand of the Liu family, but there is no target for suspicion. ”

"I see."

After hearing the words of Father-in-law Wan, Chu Ci's face was also slightly condensed.

Chu Ci had expected this possibility from the beginning, but he didn't expect the emperor to find out at this time. Speaking of which, the emperor can find out that Gonggong Wan is his person, and I am afraid that some spies in the palace have changed.

Or is it that they have been too close to Gonggong Wan recently, and the emperor has noticed Duanrui?

"The old slave retired."

Seeing Chu Ci's reaction, Gonggong Wan also knew that his words should end here. As for the rest, Wan Gonggong didn't want to say anything more. Although Gonggong Wan has a guess about someone in his heart, if he says this, it is two extremes.

guessed correctly, it is naturally a good thing, but it also has to make Chu Ci lose a boost. guessed wrong, that is the disaster that is coming to Gonggong Wan, and Chu Ci will definitely not believe him again in the future.

Therefore, unless there is conclusive evidence or a great possibility, Grandpa Wan will never speak.

"During this time, I will find an excuse for my father-in-law to live elsewhere for a while." Just when Gonggong Wan turned around, Chu Ci suddenly spoke, "Since my father is already suspicious of you, you must pay attention to a few points in case something happens." ”

Hearing this, Gonggong Wan was stunned for a moment, and then respectfully thanked Chu Ci. Regardless of whether Chu Ci was suspicious of him or really just worried that the emperor would attack him, it was a good thing for Gonggong Wan to leave the emperor's side for the time being at this time.

"Qingxinzhai needs to be repaired, it will last about two months, I will have people guard that place, and during this time, I will be wronged about where my father-in-law lives."

"Thank you, Your Highness the Prince."

If it was said that Gonggong Wan was not sure of the meaning of Chu Ci before, then at this time, Gonggong Wan was sure that Chu Ci was just to protect him. Not for anything else, just because there are still some miscellaneous fish that need to be cleaned up.
