Chapter 211: Your Majesty's Conditions
East Palace
Yuan Qi, who had just heard the news, hurriedly told Rong Cheng about it, and Rong Cheng sank his face after hearing it.
"Your Highness, what can I do now? Now everyone is spreading that Miss Yun doesn't even want ordinary people, and the marriage she said was a good marriage has changed temporarily, and Miss Yun can't marry at all this time. ”
"No matter when it comes, I will marry her!" Rong Cheng rubbed his eyebrows: "This time it was the palace that was not well considered." ”
Rong Cheng knew that Yun Qing was not a person who cared about the opinions of others, but he couldn't stand those people arranging her, how disappointed should Yun Qing be in his heart these days?
"Yuan Qi, you go and find the portrait of Eniang, help the palace present it to the emperor, and say that the palace asks to see you. ”
Fortunately, His Majesty only forbade Rong Cheng's feet, and the palace people in the East Palace could still move around freely, and after Yuan Qi presented the portrait of the former queen according to his words, His Majesty really came.
I don't know if it's Rong Cheng's illusion, I haven't seen him for a few days. My father was much haggard again.
After sending off his subordinates, His Majesty said, "What does it mean that the prince sent Yuan Qi to present the portrait of your queen mother?"
Rong Cheng said: "Erchen heard that my mother was from a humble background, and many people did not allow you to marry your mother as the main house, but you still married desperately." ”
When His Majesty heard this, he seemed to remember what happened back then, and he couldn't help but be stunned for a while, and after a long time, he said: "I was young and frivolous back then, and later I found out that the relationship between men and women was not so important, and it took a long time. It's also light. Besides, although your mother was from a low background back then, her reputation was always good, and this Miss Yun Er is really ......"
"Erchen has always been unkind to women since he was a child, this is the first time to ask his father, and I hope that his father will approve it!"
"Why are you so dead-eyed?! A concubine with a bad reputation, I have heard of it, and she is still from the countryside? What good is it for you to marry back? Aren't you laughed at?!"
"Erchen is not afraid, what's more, when he was in the countryside, she saved Erchen, if it weren't for her, Erchen might be rotten now. ”
His Majesty was slightly stunned when he heard this: "You mean, the time you were injured a few years ago, she also saved you?"
"Yes, no matter how outsiders spread it, Erchen knows that she is a good woman, and she never asks for anything in return, after Erchen loses her memory this time, she takes care of Erchen for more than a year without asking for anything in return, just by virtue of this, can't my father accept her?"
His Majesty was slightly moved when he heard this, but he still said: "Do you know that she is not deliberately close to you? You don't understand women!"
"Erchen doesn't understand, but Erchen guarantees that Yunqing definitely doesn't know Erchen's true identity!"
"So, you have to marry her?"
Rong Cheng's attitude was very resolute: "Please also ask my father to fulfill it!"
His Majesty did not continue to stop him, but said, "Well, there is a condition for my father!"
"You say!"
"Yunqing's identity, it is absolutely impossible for you to be a concubine! I can reluctantly agree to you to accept her as a concubine, and besides, you can marry a few more wives and concubines as soon as possible, and I can only agree to you!"
"Father's ......"
"This is already my bottom line, or for the sake of the face of your dead mother, you should not continue to say more! When I married your mother, I also paid a certain price! Our royal family will never allow such a crown princess! If you insist on making him your wife, won't she become the queen in the future? It's a joke! If that's the case, I should really think about it, whether this son will be passed on to you one day!"
Rong Cheng was stunned, but said, "Father, have you been healthy recently?"
"It's okay, I'm afraid that if I'm not sick, I'll be angry with you!"
Rong Cheng didn't answer, he always felt that his father was a little abnormal, and threatened him with the throne, which didn't seem to be a joke.
Originally, Rong Cheng didn't care so much about fame and fortune, but he knew that if he couldn't sit in that position, Prince Rirong would definitely not let him and his former henchmen go, and he could marry her as a concubine without hesitation, what could he do to give Yunqing a stable future?
Rong Cheng stayed up all night, and finally agreed to the emperor's conditions, but he refused to marry the main concubine, and this time he chose at most a side concubine and a few concubines. said that the concubine was elected in the future, and His Majesty agreed.
In other words, His Majesty did not insist on refusing to agree to him marrying that Yunqing as a concubine, but just raised the conditions a little and took the opportunity to let him admit a few more wives and concubines.
This is the first time that the prince wants to officially choose a concubine, and the daughters of the official family have all received invitations, but when the news spread, His Majesty Xu deliberately added a clause that the second lady of Yunfu could not come!
Originally, Yun Qing was not going to go, so it would be very unkind to point it out, Yun Qing was almost not laughed at to death.
The date of choosing a concubine was set for three days later, and after the emperor released Rong Cheng's confinement, Rong Cheng immediately pretended to leave the palace and came to the small courtyard where he lived.
When it was almost noon, Yun Qing really came, and when he saw him, he was stunned, there was no expression on his face, so that he couldn't see joy and anger, Yun Qing said: "Are you back?"
"Hmm. ”
“...... That's good, I thought something had happened to you. ”
Rong Cheng saw that she was not angry, and immediately explained: "I have some things these days. ”
Yun Qing didn't talk nonsense, didn't mention the grievances he had suffered these days, and asked directly: "Then can you still fake marriage with me?"
“...... Not yet. "Rong Cheng felt that he was full of money for the first time, he was growing up, and it was the first time he broke his trust in others, and he was still this person, this kind of thing!
Yun Qing was not annoyed, and asked rhetorically, "Rong Cheng, have you recovered your memory?"
"Yes. ”
"Then, you know my identity and my bad reputation in the capital?"
"Yes, but I don't care about that. ”
The corners of Yun Qing's lips raised a self-deprecating smile: "Fake marriage with me, you are very embarrassed now?"
Rong Cheng hesitated, but he was still not ready to lie to her: "Yes, but it's not what you think, I will definitely marry you one day!"
"No need!" Yun Qing felt a little unspeakably uncomfortable in her heart, she knew that Rong Cheng was not the kind of person who cared about the eyes of outsiders, maybe he was embarrassed because of his family, because he was useless to him after recovering his memory, but these are all facts, and Yun Qing has nothing to blame him: "Since you have recovered your memory, then you can live your young master's life well, and you won't have to live in this kind of broken house in the future, and there is no shortage of gentle and virtuous maids around you to serve you, how good is this." ”
"Cloud Clearing ......"
"What do you want to eat at noon? I bought fish, and after eating, I returned the house. Yun Qing breathed a sigh of relief: "It just so happens that I won't have to run back and forth in the future." ”
After Yunqing finished speaking, he went to the kitchen to cook, it was strange, it was obvious that he was just pretending to be married, but he felt empty in his heart.
Sure enough, men are all virtuous, and Rong Cheng is just a little stronger than Dugu Yi.
When they had lunch, they were silent. When he was about to finish eating, Rong Cheng said: "I can probably guess who is going to marry you, don't worry, I will find a way to help you." ”
"Thank you. ”
Yun Qing didn't think so, after eating, he went to the landlord to return the house, and before breaking up, Yun Qing suddenly felt a strong reluctance in his heart.
In the past year, she likes to run here whenever something goes wrong in Yunfu, although she always complains about trouble, but in fact, she knows in her heart that every time she comes here, she is relaxed, and she will not be able to come in the future.
She was a little annoyed that her mother-in-law got up, and she couldn't help but feel a little strange about Rong Cheng in her heart.
It's all because of him! Accidents happen at every turn, and every time he saves him, he pats his ass and leaves, without bringing his head back. He served him in vain for more than a year, and in the end, he went back to be his eldest young master, and he didn't catch anything, Yun Qing became irritable inexplicably, and stopped Rong Cheng, who was about to leave, and said, "Hey, you stop me!"
Rong Cheng turned around, Yun Qing saw that there was no one in the alley, stepped forward and grabbed Rong Cheng's clothes, forced him to lower his head, and gnawed at his thin lips.
She always has to get some interest back, anyway, Rong Cheng's face is good-looking, she should be a free prostitute rabbit!
After a while, Rong Cheng's lips were bitten by her, and a smell of blood filled her mouth, Yun Qing calmed down a little, instantly felt embarrassed, and was ready to get up from Rong Cheng, but she didn't want to be buckled by Rong Cheng's waist, so she kissed her for a while. The big palm lingered around her waist for a moment before letting go of her.
"I'm just asking for some interest, don't think about it!"
"Asking for interest?" Rong Cheng suddenly smiled: "How can such a little bit be enough?
Rong Cheng said, took Yun Qing's hand, and explained seriously: "I really encountered some difficulties this time, you wait, I will definitely not break my promise! Your parents, I have seen it!!"
Yun Qing didn't understand the meaning of his words, but Rong Cheng didn't explain too much, and left after speaking.
No matter how many women he marries this time, the position of the concubine will always be Yunqing!
Three days later
The concubine selection banquet was set up in the East Palace, and the Queen Mother, Queen Yue, Concubine Yue and others were all present in person, and the daughters of each family were also dressed up to compete for beauty, not to mention how pleasing to the eye.
Rong Cheng said that he was busy with business, and he didn't arrive for a long time, and a group of daughters chattered together.
"Have you heard of it, this time the prince chose a concubine, His Majesty specially issued an order not to allow that Yunqing in Yunfu not to come, I really laughed to death!"
"I heard that Yunqing found a civilian man a while ago, saying that he wanted to get married, but later he regretted it and escaped when he gave the dowry!"
Even a group of women gathered around and said bad things about Yunqing, hiding their faces with handkerchiefs and chuckling.
"It's a shame, if I were her, I would have packed up my things and rolled up and went back to the countryside! I still have the face to stay in Beijing, you say, are the countrymen thick-skinned?"
"I don't know if the countryman is thick-skinned or not, but the young lady's skin is really thick!" The woman had just finished taunting Yunqing, and happened to be heard by Rong Cheng, who rushed over.
Rong Cheng was wearing a half-worn cyan robe, and he didn't dress up much, but he still couldn't hide his appearance, and the daughters present blushed with shame.
It's just that I don't know if it's their delusion, His Royal Highness the Prince's face is gloomy and terrifying.
