Chapter 599: Too Much Impact
Early the next morning.
Zhao Hai opened his eyes contentedly and looked around, extremely satisfied.
The sunlight is just right, shining into the window lattice, outlining a pair of jade arms and a pair of snow-white graceful long legs, which leads people to infinite reverie.
Zhao Hai is naturally at the center of everyone, guarded by many concubines.
At this moment, in this side hall, it can be said that it is extremely fragrant.
Thinking back to last night, it was like a dream.
Even with his physique, it's a little unbearable.
He looked sideways and saw Concubine Lan's eyelashes blinking, and immediately knew that Concubine Lan was pretending to be asleep.
He stepped forward and grabbed Concubine Lan, "I have seen it, are you still pretending to be asleep in front of me?" β
When Concubine Lan heard this, her face flushed, and she snorted in Zhao Hai's arms, "Your Majesty." β
"Don't be afraid, I know that as a noble concubine, you can't let go in front of so many people, so I deliberately didn't look for you."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Concubine Lan's eyes flashed with a slightly complicated look.
After all, Concubine Chen was also in this place, so if she had a good time with Zhao Hai, it would inevitably make her feel a little undignified.
After all, the two had a disagreement before.
Zhao Hai naturally didn't go to look for Concubine Chen, he hugged Concubine Lan and slept for a while, and after saying something close to himself, suddenly Qingyue trotted in from outside.
She had an anxious look on her face.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty! Lord Han Ying Han was outside, saying that he had something to find His Majesty, and he was in a hurry. β
Zhao Hai immediately turned over and got up, since it was Han Ying who came to him and said that there was something urgent, it must be a big deal.
Seeing this, Concubine Lan also hurriedly got up to help Zhao Hai change his clothes, "Your Majesty, since there is an urgent matter, you can deal with it first." β
"It's good for me to arrange things here."
"The concubine is in the Jiangxue Palace, waiting for His Majesty to come at any time."
"Okay." Zhao Hai nodded, straightened his dragon robe at will, and strode out of this side hall.
When he saw Han Ying again, Zhao Hai really saw the anxious look on Han Ying's face, "What's the matter?" Han Ying, what's wrong? β
Han Ying clenched his fists and said: "Your Majesty, something is wrong, this morning Jinyiwei suddenly came with news, saying that Miss Chu Lingran of the Chu family suddenly got engaged to a rich son." β
"In a few days, I'm afraid there will be a wedding."
When Zhao Hai heard this, his face was immediately stunned, a little incredulous.
"Han Ying, are you sure your words are true? No scam? β
"How could this kind of thing happen to Chu Lingran? If it was really forced by her parents, she would definitely enter the palace and tell me! β
"Why don't you tell me?"
The corners of Han Ying's mouth were bitter, and he said with a smile: "Your Majesty, it's true." β
"Although the minister also felt a little incredible when he heard it, he would rather believe it than believe it."
"It is said that the marriage certificate has been issued, and I am afraid that it will not be long before we get married."
When Zhao Hai heard this, an unhappy expression immediately appeared on his face.
The atmosphere also stiffened for a while.
"How can this be reasonable, prepare the carriage immediately, I want to go to the Chu family, I want to ask in person, what is going on."
"Chu Lingran will definitely not do such a thing, among them, there must be something hidden."
"Hmph, I don't know which rich boy dares to swing the hoe on my head, it's really bold!"
It only took half an hour for Zhao Hai's carriage to come to the door of the Chu family.
Zhao Hai was puzzled on the road, what was the problem, and Chu Lingran would be willing to engage a rich son.
In the whole world, no one should dare to force her.
At the very least, now she is the steward of the Caixian Academy, and she is also a protΓ©gΓ© of the Son of Heaven.
Even when parents speak, they must also weigh and weigh.
Even if others don't know, they have to let her get engaged to some rich son, but she Chu Lingran should know that today is her man.
The head of the Chu family, there was something wrong at this time, and he was not at home, so Zhao Hai didn't worry so much and rushed in directly.
In the backyard of the Chu family, there is a pavilion in the middle of the lake.
The man looked tall and had a clear eyebrow, but he looked ordinary, and he couldn't be recognized in a crowd.
The woman is full of books, and her eyes are spiritual, but there is some gloom and death.
The two sat facing each other, and the man opposite couldn't wait to say, "Miss Chu, since the marriage agreement is under the agreement, we are not outsiders, and we can even be said to be half husband and wife." β
"When Miss Chu dressed as a man and became famous in Xianyang, I heard a lot, and I was overwhelmed by the girl's poetry and rhetoric."
"Now, the girl announced to the world that she is a daughter, but I didn't expect that I would be lucky enough to be married to the girl in my third life, which is really a blessing from my previous life."
"There is a family heirloom of mine here, dedicated to the girl, talking about the heart."
Although the man's face was calm, he couldn't hide the greed in Chu Lingran's eyes.
Obviously, he was very satisfied with Chu Lingran's appearance and temperament.
"Wei Gongzi, I can't ask for this thing now, you better take it back."
"I don't take anything from others."
Chu Lingran's eyes were empty and godless, and when he said this, there was no wave.
Zhao Hai didn't want her before, which stimulated her too much and had too much impact.
At this time, her heart was like ashes, and her shape was like a tree.
Hearing this, Wei Gongzi stretched out his hand in the gift box, and immediately froze, his eyes revealing great anger and resentment.
Obviously, this Wei Gongzi is a narrow-minded person.
How could he not have heard some rumors about Chu Lingran and Zhao Menglong, the dean of the Caixian Academy?
The reason why he knew these things and was still willing to make a marriage contract with Chu Lingran was simply because Chu Lingran's family background, talent, and appearance were not picky.
And Chu Lingran talks well, is generous, smart and sensible, if he becomes a housekeeper in the future, he will definitely be able to make his descendants very good.
Moreover, even if he gets tired of playing in the end, he can completely take a break from the book, kick Chu Lingran with one foot, and find a new love.
Anyway, in this era, the status of women is not high.
Doing this kind of thing is also a matter of course, and it comes easily.
"Well, since Miss Chu is unwilling, then I won't force it."
"But can you ask why Miss Chu doesn't accept gifts from others? Is it ordered by the elders in the family, or is there something else hidden? β
Wei Gongzi's eyes flickered, and his displeasure almost overflowed.
Although he does not have any official position in the imperial court, his family is wealthy and belongs to a famous family, and there are countless relatives and friends who are officials.
He didn't think that his family would be any worse than Chu Lingran's family.
Even, he once felt that he was more superior, after all, he was still young and still a man, and the Chu family only had an only daughter, what could he do?
