Chapter 835
The husband and wife are the same forest bird
Xue Chi rejected the emperor's proposal.
He did not evade the words, but said directly: "Your Majesty, my son loves Chengyang Marquis. If I cannot marry her, my son would rather be alone."
emperor:"……"
This is called the emperor unable to refute.
If he said something like "I don't want to get married" or "I haven't met someone who is in tune with me yet", the emperor would have some words, and he could ask people to have a few suitable characters.
When marrying King Zhuang, the emperor planned to marry him a clean family background and a smooth face.
The emperor did not consider that kind of beautiful daughter in a noble family.
Unexpectedly, Xue Chi blocked him back.
Can the emperor point Chengyang Hou to him? If not, he will not speak out.
"...Who you love is your own business. Get out of here." The emperor was so angry that he was embarrassed.
Xue Chidaoye turned around and left.
When he walked out of the palace, he met the brothers of the Tenth Prince and the Twelve Prince.
The brothers fell down one by one, either dead or fell out of favor. These inconspicuous little princes began to frequently enter and exit the court.
Of course, the tenth prince and the twelfth prince are also in their early twenties, not small.
"Where is Brother Jiu coming from?" asked the tenth prince.
Xue Chi: "Imperial Study Room."
"Did Brother Jiu go to do the job again?"
"The last time the disaster relief was done, Brother Jiu did a good job. The Prime Minister, the Grand Tutor and others praised Brother Jiu. This time, I'm afraid there was a new job, right?"
"No," Xue Chi said, "Your Majesty just wanted to point me out the marriage. Because there was no suitable candidate, I gave up again, so I went there in vain."
The two princes became even more enthusiastic and said they could recommend a few noble ladies and let the ninth brother choose.
Xue Chi said there was no need to worry, and the three brothers passed by.
The twelfth prince said to the tenth prince: "Brother Ten, if this cripple can be the crown prince, you can do it too."
Xue Chi suddenly turned around and looked at them.
The two brothers were shocked and suspected that they had heard them.
However, Xue Chi said nothing and turned around and continued to leave.
When he returned to Prince Zhuang's Mansion, Xue Mei also asked him what the emperor did for him.
Xue Chi: "A little official business."
The marriage is very important to Xue Chi, so it is naturally impossible to get married by arresting someone casually. He had not thought it through and was unwilling to let Xue Mei get along, so he didn't tell the truth.
Xue Mei said oh.
Not long after Xue Chi came back, an eunuch came outside, saying that he wanted to meet Chengyang Hou.
Xue Mei thought it was from the palace, so she hurried to meet her. Xue Chi felt a little moved and followed her to see if she was the eunuch in the imperial study room.
The person who came was the eunuch from the Eastern Palace.
The eunuch is about forty years old, with pale skin and a little fat, but he doesn't have that kind of kindness at all. On the contrary, he is a very serious fat man.
"...The Crown Princess said she was not very happy and wanted to ask the marquis to take her pulse. I dared to invite her, so don't blame her." The eunuch said.
Xue Mei: "I'll go now, my father-in-law, wait."
She went back to Huiningyuan first, called her maid to take her to take a medical box and went out with her.
Xue Chi was uneasy, afraid that there would be changes in the East Palace. When Xue Mei went out, he was already waiting at the gate.
"I'll accompany you." Xue Chi said, "There are so many imperial physicians in the palace, but they want to invite you. It's unusual. Now that the prince is under house arrest, I don't know what's going to happen."
Xue Meidao is good.
When they entered the palace, they met the brothers of the tenth prince, who happened to go out.
When they met each other, the tenth prince glanced at Xue Mei and Xue Chi, and felt that the ninth brother was too enthusiastic today and ran to the palace twice.
Xue Mei ignored it and walked in.
The Eastern Palace is very quiet.
Unlike in the past, the East Palace is now a prison. Not to mention eunuchs, even palace maids and eunuchs have fixed numbers, and basically no one is present.
The other beautiful concubines in the East Palace were locked in their rooms, so when Xue Mei went to the Crown Princess, she almost never ran into anyone, including those serving her.
Xue Chi stayed in the outer courtyard and did not enter the inner courtyard of the Crown Princess.
Seeing Xue Mei, the Crown Princess Liu pulled her hand tightly.
Her face was not very good-looking.
Xue Mei took her pulse and found that she had no other symptoms except anemia.
The Crown Princess herself said: "I always feel dizzy and can't help but get stronger."
Xue Mei happened to have blood-replenishing medicine, so she gave it to her; she also took some blood-replenishing medicine to treat it with a combination of Chinese and Western medicine, hoping that the Crown Princess would recover as soon as possible.
The Crown Princess was trying to scare herself, and Xue Mei told her to pay attention to the combination of meat and vegetables when eating, and not just eat vegetarian food.
"...I was hurting my appetite during the summer days, so I couldn't eat much. Don't think about meat dishes, I'd vomit when I smelled it." said the princess.
Xue Mei asked her to overcome this mentality by herself, and she still had to eat meat dishes.
The two chatted, and the princess finally talked about the prince being under house arrest. She asked Xue Mei: "Did you hear the news? What will happen to the East Palace in the future?"
Xue Mei: "Not yet."
The Crown Princess told Xue Mei: "I want to go back to Qingyang, and my children also want to go back. My parents and brothers take good care of me and love my children..."
"Empress, I can't help you with this." Xue Mei said, "Whoever pleads for the East Palace in front of His Majesty will not want to live."
Liu's tears almost came down.
She didn't say anything that day.
On night, her children came to pay their respects, and they were all silent and dared not speak.
If the child goes on for a long time, the child will have problems like her, and Liu thinks she has to leave.
According to the emperor's character, he did not cherish his children and grandchildren, but would not harm him. Even if the prince was deposed, the emperor would not torture Liu and his grandchildren.
The prince was deposed, and most likely he went to the desolate fiefdom again. This time, the princess did not plan to follow him.
She went there last time, and after years of support, she suffered so much. As a result, Cheng Lanqing appeared. Her beauty and wisdom soon made the prince forget to have friendship.
All the bitterness is in vain.
Men are far less reliable than their parents and brothers.
Liu's family had to leave first. When the prince was deposed, the court would not go to Qingyang to capture her and her children and send them to poor fiefdoms.
The emperor was not so ruthless.
As for the prince, he took it upon himself and let him do it.
Mrs. Liu knew that the only one who could help her now was Xue Mei. But if she didn't show any sincerity, Xue Mei would not speak.
"She must want the emperor to depose the prince as soon as possible and support King Zhuang to enter the Eastern Palace." The princess thought.
Since this is the case, she will speed up the prince's pace of being deposed, and she will sell her favor to Xue Mei. Anyway, the prince will be deposed sooner or later, regardless of whether Liu takes action.
After all, he was the mistress of the Eastern Palace. Even though Cheng Lanqing hid all the secrets, there were also fish that missed the net. Liu was not a vegetarian.
She went to the prince's bedroom and planned to search for something.
She succeeded very smoothly.
In order to show sincerity, she delayed for four or five days and sent someone to invite Xue Mei again.
It is very difficult for the father-in-law of the East Palace to go out and have to mix in the purchasing team.
