Chapter 245: Marriage
After coming out of the imperial study, Zhu An's whole body was like losing his soul.
Zhu An knew very well in his heart that if the members of the royal family collaborated with the enemy and treason, they must give an explanation to their subjects!
So after plucking up the courage to enter the palace, Zhu An was ready to pay the price.
But he would never have thought that the emperor would cut off his little thumb, and only punished him with a grounding.
As the saying goes, ten fingers are connected to the heart, and if a finger is cut off alive, how painful it is!
But the emperor didn't even blink his eyes.
Is this what Yu Hao said about tiger poison and not eating children?
Or maybe the emperor took responsibility for himself and opened up to him because of Yu Hao's intercession?
Unconsciously, Zhu An had staggered to Cining Palace, and Concubine Liu Guifei was anxiously waiting for Zhu An to come back at the palace gate.
The moment she saw Zhu An, Liu Guifei couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief, then straightened her face, strode up, and slapped Zhu An in the face.
This sudden slap suddenly woke up the confused Zhu An, who looked at Liu Guifei in surprise and wondered: "Mother? Why are you here? ”
"This is Cining Palace, where can I be if I'm not here? Look at the good things you have done, do you want to be angry and die? Liu Guifei said angrily.
When she heard the rumors in the palace, Concubine Liu almost died of fright on the spot.
That is a collaboration with the enemy and treason, even if the emperor kills Zhu An and her, it is not an exaggeration, and even the Liu family may be implicated!
Before Zhu An returned to Wudu City, Liu Guifei ate fasting and chanted Buddha all day long, in order to ask the Buddha to bless the emperor not to blame Zhu An.
even sent Xiaoyu to wait for Zhu An outside the palace, prevent Zhu An from entering the palace, and let him hide outside.
But Zhu An didn't know which tendon was wrong, so he had to go to the emperor to admit his mistake in person.
This can make Liu Guifei's heart rise to her throat, if Zhu An has something long and two short, how can she live?
If it weren't for Xiaoyu's desperate stopping, Liu Guifei would have rushed to the imperial study to beg the emperor to let Zhu An go.
However, what Liu Guifei didn't expect was that Zhu An just ended up grounded, which is undoubtedly great news for her.
"What did you tell Your Majesty, why did Your Majesty only let you be grounded?" Liu Guifei asked suspiciously.
With the emperor's temper, even if he doesn't kill Zhu An, he will clean up Zhu An fiercely, and he shouldn't let Zhu An go so easily!
Zhu An shook his head and said, "I didn't say anything, maybe it was because Yu Hao helped me intercede before this!" ”
Zhu An did not say that the emperor cut off a finger for him, and at present, only Zhu An, Feng Yulou and the imperial doctor in the entire palace know the news.
Everyone knew how much of a sensation the news of the emperor's dragon body injury would cause if it spread, so the three of them tacitly chose to keep it secret.
Listening to Zhu An's words, Liu Guifei suddenly showed a look of sudden realization.
"Yes, Yu Hao has just made such a great contribution, His Majesty will give him a little thin noodles more or less, I didn't expect this Yu Hao to be quite reliable at a critical moment, son, you didn't make this friend in vain!" Liu Guifei said with a smile.
There is no need for Liu Guifei to say this, Zhu Anxin also knows that in his opinion, Zhu Song's openness to him this time is mostly because of Yu Hao's intercession.
"The child is not filial, which makes the mother worried." Juan bowed his head and said.
"You're embarrassed to say it!" Liu Guifei's face suddenly turned stiff again, "As a prince, you actually did such a thing, what do you think?" Even if it's to survive, you can't be so spineless, right? ”
Although Liu Guifei hopes that Zhu An can return safely, she hopes that Zhu An can be a prince with backbone and dignity, otherwise even if he comes back, he will not be able to raise his head for the rest of his life!
Listening to Liu Guifei's accusation, Zhu An lowered his head in shame, he had nothing to hide from Liu Guifei, and he was about to say everything about Wu Miaomiao.
When Liu Guifei heard that Zhu An actually took the initiative to go to the battlefield because of a woman, and it was also because of a woman that she betrayed the information, she was so angry that she couldn't speak.
She had already warned Zhu An to go to places like Qinglou less, otherwise she would be criticized sooner or later!
But not only did Zhu An not listen, but he actually fell in love with the Qinglou woman, which is simply ridiculous!
Although it seems that Zhu An was calculated by the prince, if Zhu An can clean himself, can the prince still calculate Zhu An?
If there is no such woman, Zhu An, like Yu Hao, is a hero of Daqian!
Now it's okay, Zhu An has completely lost his favor in front of the emperor, what else can he fight with the prince?
Thinking of this, Liu Guifei's face suddenly turned like ashes, and it seemed that she would never want to turn over in her life.
But she is unwilling, since the emperor is open to Zhu An, it shows that the emperor does not hate Zhu An so much on the surface, and Zhu An still has a play!
Thinking of this, Liu Guifei hurriedly said: "From today onwards, I will take away all your pocket money, even if Your Majesty lifts your grounding, you are not allowed to leave the palace, and I am in charge, let you get married quickly!" ”
"Married? Who am I marrying? Zhu An was stunned.
Liu Guifei thought for a while, pointed to Xiao Yu beside her and said: "Just follow Xiao Yu, I still like Xiao Yu very much, Xiao Yu is a girl I still like, she is willing to endure hardships and be virtuous, she will be a good wife!" ”
As soon as these words came out, Zhu An and Xiao Yu's eyes widened, and Xiao Yu was even more frightened and knelt on the ground all of a sudden.
"Niangniang, the slave and maid have a humble status, how can they be worthy of the third prince?"
"Mother, I don't agree, I can't hurt Xiaoyu!" Zhu An also shook his head and said.
Zhu An knew that his previous life was chaotic, and Xiaoyu was an innocent woman, wouldn't letting him marry Xiaoyu ruin Xiaoyu?
You must know that there is no palace maid in the entire palace who is willing to take care of Liu Guifei, only Xiaoyu is here, and she works hard and resents, and sincerely treats Liu Guifei as her master.
This is a great favor for Zhu An, how can he take revenge?
"It's not your turn to call the shots in this matter, I said that if you two get married, you have to get married!" Liu Guifei said coldly.
In fact, according to royal etiquette, if the prince gets married, he must be married by the emperor, and it is impossible to let the palace maid be the princess.
But no one in the entire palace will care about Zhu An, and the emperor will not take the initiative to marry Zhu An after this incident.
Therefore, Liu Guifei planned to let the two quietly kiss in this Cining Palace, and then register a marriage certificate for the two, and this matter will be done.
As long as Zhu An becomes a parent, she will not think about running to the Qinglou all day long like before, and she can save a lot of worry.
Zhu An and Xiaoyu glanced at each other, and they both saw deep helplessness in each other's eyes.
Liu Guifei is Zhu An's mother, and Zhu An's marriage is naturally decided by Liu Guifei, and Liu Guifei is also Xiaoyu's master, Xiaoyu does not dare to disobey Liu Guifei's order.
It seems that the two will eventually be unable to escape the fate of marriage.
