Volume 1 Chapter 15 Lord of Zhaoyang
"The concubine of the Marquis of Yongping is really worthy of her name, and her appearance is captivating." Murong Yuanzhan looked at Chi Yan with a smile, his eyes full of playfulness.
When Murong Li heard this, he also looked at Chi Yan, only to see her eyes lowered, her long eyelashes casting a shadow under her eyes like a small fan, and her red lips under the high bridge of her nose were like rose petals.
"I don't know why the queen mother just punished this Chi Yan?" Murong Yuanzhan suddenly spoke up, interrupting Murong Li's thoughts.
The queen was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that she had not punished Chi Yan yet. She looked at Chi Yan's well-behaved appearance, and loved it, thinking that the little girl was entering the palace for the first time, so she didn't plan to really punish her.
"The concubine of the Yongping Marquis Mansion entered the palace for the first time, and she came later than the concubine, isn't this concubine's rules not as good as a concubine?" At this time, a woman in a yellow palace dress mocked.
Chi Yan looked up, and saw that the woman was wearing a yellow long dress, with large peony flowers embroidered on the skirt, and a golden step on her head, the whole person looked luxurious and flamboyant, and the Danfeng eyes, which were exactly the same as Murong Li, were looking at her defiantly at this time.
"The courtier Chi Yan has seen the concubine." Chi Yan bowed slightly.
Murong Li's biological mother - Guifei Lin.
The corners of Chi Yan's mouth hooked up a sneer, it seems that today's banquet will not be peaceful.
"Concubine Lin, it is normal for a little girl to enter the palace for the first time, and her feet are slower, so you don't have to be too harsh." The queen looked at Concubine Lin with a hint of warning in her eyes.
"The queen is merciful, it's just that this same journey, the concubine of the Yongping Marquis Mansion can come early, but the concubine is late for a long time, the rules in this are really confusing." Although Lin Guifei's tone was slow, her eyes were full of disdain.
"Then you have to ask the third prince...... Murong Yuanzhan picked up the tea cup in his hand and looked at Murong Li with interest.
"I heard that the third prince personally sent a sedan chair to pick up the maid of the Hou Mansion at the gate of the palace, but Chi Yan walked in step by step with the palace people."
"Isn't it written in the father's marriage decree that the position of the third princess is a concubine, not a concubine?" Murong Yuanzhan said this, and the atmosphere at the scene suddenly became tense.
"Or maybe the minions down there picked up the wrong person?"
"Is that the case?" The emperor's eyes were like torches, and he looked at Murong Li.
Murong Li's face did not change, still with a smile, and he got up and saluted: "Father, Erchen did send a sedan chair to pick up Chi Wei, because the person Erchen likes in his heart is Chi Wei, not Chi Yan." ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked, and even the queen was a little stunned.
Murong Li was calm and composed, and continued: "Father, the sons and daughters feel that although Chi Wei is a concubine, she has a gentle personality and outstanding talents, and she is more suitable as the third princess. And although Chi Yan is beautiful, she has a domineering personality, and I am afraid it is difficult to be qualified for the position of princess. ”
"So the son-in-law implored his father to take back his order and give Chi Wei to his son-in-law, while Chi Yan found another good match." Murong Li's sincere words did not see the emperor's darkening face at all.
The emperor looked at Murong Li's more and more outrageous appearance, and his heart was angry, he put down the teacup and was about to reprimand him harshly.
At this time, Shen Canglan, who was sitting in the military general's seat, got up and saluted.
"Your Majesty, since the third prince already has someone he likes, we should fulfill it. Please take back your majesty's marriage with Ah Yan! Shen Canglan's firm and peaceful words made everyone present feel surprised.
"Shen Aiqing, this Chi Yan is your own granddaughter, do you really want me to withdraw my will to give marriage?" The emperor looked at Shen Canglan, his eyes full of temptation.
"Your Majesty, marriage is a matter of happiness for a lifetime, the third prince already has a favorite person, and he is still Ah Yan's sister-in-law, and there are no two daughters
The truth of marrying the three princes at the same time. ”
"Since the marriage, the three princes have repeatedly said that Ah Yan is arrogant and domineering, and it is not suitable for the third princess."
"Some time ago, Ah Yan was seriously injured because of this marriage, and this has just improved."
"Today, the three princes personally welcomed Ah Yan's concubine into the palace, and left Ah Yan aside, which proves that the three princes have no friendship with Ah Yan."
"Ah Yan may be an arrogant, unnamed and unfavored concubine in your eyes, but in the hearts of the ministers, she is well-behaved, kind, smart and clever."
"The Shen family is now the only bloodline left with Ah Yan, Your Majesty Shengming, the old minister Rong Ma for a lifetime, and there is nothing else to ask for for the rest of his life, I just hope to see Ah Yan happy."
Shen Canglan bowed with a firm attitude. A sincere remark made everyone present moved.
"Grandpa......" Chi Yan looked at Shen Canglan, tears flashed with emotion in her eyes, only Grandpa's will always stand on her side so unhesitatingly.
"Chi Aiqing, what do you think?"
Chi Tianba, who was named, looked nervous, and hurriedly got up and saluted: "Your Majesty, Weichen believes that marriage is indeed related to the happiness of a lifetime, and since the third prince already has a favorite person, it should be fulfilled." ”
"Well, since Shen Aiqing and Chi Aiqing have said so, I will withdraw this will to give marriage." The Emperor pondered for a moment, then finally nodded.
"Your Majesty Shengming!" Shen Canglan Chi Tianba saluted again.
"However, I will not let you suffer in vain." The emperor looked at Chi Yan and softened his tone a little, "Chi Yan, the concubine of the Marquis of Yongping."
Elegant and pleasant, temperamental, specially named the lord of Zhaoyang, hope that Er can continue to uphold the family style, loyal to the king, and glorious lintel. ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty, Longen!" Chi Yan saluted and thanked him obediently. But she couldn't stop cheering in her heart, as cannon fodder, she finally got rid of the hated marriage, and she could live freely. can not be a stumbling block on the road of love between the male and female protagonists!
The Dog Emperor finally did a human thing. The corners of her mouth rose slightly, and she secretly sighed: All this is thanks to her grandfather's love and help, and she must cherish this hard-won freedom.
"Father, the marriage ...... between the minister and Wei'er" Murong Li couldn't wait to get up.
The emperor looked at Murong Li and said in a serious tone: "Marriage is not a child's play, this matter needs to be considered in the long run." ”
"Father, son, ......"
"Li'er!" Lin Guifei saw that the emperor was already displeased, and hurriedly stopped Murong Li.
"The son understands that everything is subject to his father's arrangement."
A trace of disappointment flashed on Murong Li's face, and he felt as if something was missing in his heart. He thought that it must be because his father did not agree to marry him and Wei'er. Soon he returned to normalcy and looked at Chi Wei below.
Chi Wei's face was a look he had never seen before!
