Chapter 167: Bestowing a Marriage (Part 2)
“The Young Lady of the Shen family?” The Crown Prince was first stunned and lose his voice saying, “Shen Miao?”
Fu Xiu Yi looked at hi
“No” The Crown Prince shook his head, “The Young Lady of the Shen family is the pearl on General Shen's hands and is currently not engage till now One fear that he view his daughter's lifelong matter very seriously and i to marry her to the Eastern Palace? Moreover,” The Crown Prince looked at Fu Xiu Yi and sinning the Young Lady of the Shen faer Brother in her heart I would not be able to gain her affection”
Fu Xiu Yi laughed and shook his head, “Hoould she haveOtherwise you have seen in these few years, she had not given me any special treatment these few years and it was even colder than outsiders”
The Crown Prince thought about it carefully It was indeed so In these two years, it seemed that when Shen Miao saw Fu Xiu Yi, there was no warm like previous and both of the said that, the Crown Prince still said, “Maybe it was because you are not affectionate with others so Young Lady Shen is angry with you”
“Eldest Brother better not tease me” Fu Xiu Yi smiled, “Furthermore the Shen family is not the in-laws that I can cli to look for a ith a less pro of which,” Fu Xiu Yi said seriously, “Why does Eldest Brother have to work fro Lady Shen? The parents will es The best ive it to Imperial Father”
“Imperial Father?”
“Correct” Fu Xiu Yi saw that the wine cup of the Crown Prince was empty and filled it to the brim He then said slowly, “Imperial Father dotes Eldest Brother the most and would definitely support Eldest Brother and will seek a strong support for Eldest Brother If Eldest Brother want toLady Shen, Imperial Father will definitely be happy to make it coe, everything will be solved”
“Ninth Younger Brother had thought about it too si forcibly done is going to be agreeable One know that the Young Lady of the Shen fa to marry me and because of the Imperial edict, she had to enter the Eastern Palace, in the future she will have grievances about it General Shen will also have grievances with Ie would not be successful and one will become enemies Then it would be bad”
“Why would Eldest Brother think so?” Fu Xiu Yi looked at him with surprise, “All the females in the world only seek for a wealth and peaceful future Even though one will not be the official consort afterinto the Eastern Palace, the Secondary Consort identity is not of a lowly position In the future when Eldest Brother is enthroned, the Young Lady of the Shen family naturally will be raised to a Consort position Eldest Brother has a war Lady of the Shen family well, one's heart would be seen in the future so ould there be grievances towards Eldest Brother? Just like Eldest Sao as bestowed to Eldest Brother by I Eldest Brother to plan”
When the Crown Prince heard of it, he felt that Fu Xiu Yi's words were so the Crown Prince Consort also married due to the Emperor's Imperial edict and before that they did not see one another ness but now, she had deeply rooted feelings for the Crown Prince and would keep thinking for the Crown Prince
“Females are all like this If one marry a chick one will follow the chicken and when oneas one treat her better, she hole-heartedly follow one's husband Eldest Brother is a dragon a people so how could one unable to tame a female?”
The Crown Prince was a little embarrassed with Fu Xiu Yi's words and waved his hands continuously Both bothers confide with entire sincerity and exchanging cups of wine It was really joyous and harmonious
It was only when the night was deep and after Fu Xiu Yi left the Eastern Palace, the drunkenness ept away from the Crown Prince's face Instead in its place, there was somewhat of a clarity
The aides walked out frohness, just now the Ninth Highness's words…”
“Ninth Younger Brother is sending a pluhed and naturally picked up his wine cup, “It is rather courageous Now that Imperial Father is suspicious of hioodwill to my Eastern Palace From this, it is true that us brothers had underestimated him”
“Then the proposal that the Ninth Highness had hness seek a relation with the Shen fahness think about it?” The aide asked
The Crown Prince put down the cup in his hands and a light flashed in his eyes, “Although his heart is not right, his scheme can be used I indeed need the Shen faood chess piece, it won't hurt to ood appearance, it is of no matter to coax her a bit”
The aide nodded his head, “Your Highness is agreeing to the matter?”
The Crown Prince looked at the wine flagon on the table, “This Prince will personally mention this matter to Imperial Father and will also reer Brother”
As Fu Xiu Yi expected, within a few days, the Crown Prince really mentioned the matter to Eree but also did not refused and instead looked at the Crown Prince , “Not bad Zhen kept thinking that you have not irew up” Afterwards he said, “Zhen will consider it”
After the Crown Prince left, E beside him, “Zhen had not think that the Crown Prince would actually want to marry Shen Miao”
Su GongGong said with a s Lady of the Shen fas and behaviour The Crown Prince's foresight is excellent”
“Enough of it” Emperor Wen Hui dismissed it, “Zhen is not one without a brain It is Number Nine that pointed out a clear route for the Crown Prince so what is theof it?” From his words, he knew that Fu Xiu Yi was the one that cae with the Shen family
Su GongGong was cautious and did not speak These family matters of the Imperial family all had a death word in it She was only a servant and dared not mixed into it
“However it is good Zhen wanted to support the Crown Prince since Prince Zhou and Prince Li have no longer put Zhen in their eyes Zhen also cannot understand Number Nine With the support of the Shen family, the Crown Prince can balance off with Prince Zhou and Prince Li and also control the Shen family's military power in one's hand It will save Zhen some effort It is just that…” Emperor Wen Hui smiled as he looked at theup, “Set off to Kun Ning Palace”
Luo Xue Yan received aShen Miao to the Palace toht that there were some issues with Shen Xin's side and asked Shen Xin but he also could not figure it out Both husband and ould be particularly cautious with regards to the Ih one's heart was cautious, they dare not show it to Shen Miao, fearing that Shen Miao would be scared
Even though Shen Xin and Luo Xue Yan tried their best to say it casually, how could Shen Miao's heart be able to relax? Without any rhyme or reason the Fu fa her into the Palace But she had no clue what exactly thistiuess Fu Xiu Yi's next ht, why had Pei Lang not written to her for such a long time?
Even if it was the past, even if there was nowould also write a letter to her but a long time had passed already A faint conjecture for was unable to write to her? Was it because Fu Xiu Yi had discovered him?
The e encounter with that inexplicably mad priest in Pu Tuo Monastery, it was difficult for Shen Miao's heart to calm down She wanted to knoas the benefactor with the fate of 'a fierce dragon overcomes the Heavens' She also really want to knoas the person who gave her the opportunity to relive oneback and forth, she had no clue and instead mad her mood much more restless
Shen Miao could not help but look up at theThe ere closed tightly Xie Jing Xing said that in the future there was no need to open theand he could still co did not appear at all Shen Miao draped her outerwear and walked over to theto open it The scene outside was the night wind and cold weather Shen Miao grabbed onto her outerwear tighter
Suddenly there was a flash of a figure Cong Yang had stood up from the corner of the wall and asked as he looked at Shen Miao, “Is Young Lady looking for Master?”
Shen Miao was caught off guard and ju her chest in annoyance and said, “No”
Cong Lang see in all seriousness, “Master is recently not in Ding capital Young Lady need not need to wait for him here”
“I a some air in”
Cong Yang did not speak and Shen Miao had thought about so, if I enter the Palace, can you go in together?”
When Cong Yang heard it, he was stunned for a bit before saying somewhat sorrowful, “This subordinate is not one from the Palace and not fa Lady in, there would not be places to hide and one is unable to guarantee that one would not be discovered”
Shen Miao's eyes hang down Since Cong Yang could not guarantee not to be discovered then forget about it After thinking, noup, they would not take action in the Palace since Luo Xue Yan was still there Upon thinking to this point, she was relieved and said, “It's alright”
“If Young Lady have anything to say, do tell this subordinate When this subordinate send the letter over, one will also bring it to Master” Cong Yang looked at Shen Miao and said what he wanted to say
Shen Miao closed the ith a loud 'Ba' What kind of subordinate would have what kind of Master Just don't even listen to what others said
At the other end, in the residence of Prince Rui, Gao Yang and Ji Yu Shu was studying a map at the moment The map was densely covered in many places and when one look closely, it was a military defence map
The guard outside ca Master Ji, to the Palace Must one send a letter to His Highness?”
“Enter the Palace?” Ji Yu Shu asked, “Is there anything the matter?”
The guard shook his head
Ji Yu Shu sighed, “These days one was busy drawing up thisLady Shen It would be bad when Third Older Brother return since one would not know anything when he ask You and , “You have people in the Palace , is there anything happening recently?”
“Nothing” Gao Yang thought about it and said, “Don't send the letter first He is currently busy with official matters and cannot have distractions Since there is no news fro really happen, we can just block it”
That guard complied and left
Ji Yu Shu looked at Gao Yang, “Why do I feel that your way of doing things is not proper?”
“There is nothing not proper” Gao Yang said impatiently, “Look at the map”
Ji Yu Shuhappens and when Third Older Brother asked why it was not reported in time, I will say that it was you who let…”
On the second day, Shen Miao followed Luo Xue Yan into the Palace
Everything when they entered the Palace, soilant but Shen Miao seemed to be accustomed to it This was because she already knew that the Heaven's faood intentions so she was not nervous
The palacePalace
Upon reaching Kun Ning Palace, one first saw the E at thebeside the Eentle smile, with beautiful but plain clothes worn It was none other than Dong Su Consort
The E Su Consort? Shen Miao's heart was up on alert
The Empress was the birth mother of the Crown Prince and had a conventional husband and wife relationshi+p with Emperor Wen Hui However most probably because the Empress was born from a wealthy family, the entire journey to the current position was s, her whole heart was focused on the Crown Prince's health and did not have the heart to fight for power in the Inner Palace Thus it was rather like thunder passing and windSu as the most unobtrusive could not be beaten
Consort Dong Su had always stayed out of theother consorts fight till heads were broken and blood flowed Naturally there was still one more point, which was she had a bit of power that no one knew of It was that bit of power that would drive things to the worst Using another's knife to kill others, causing the cala Su
If one were to say that Mei Furen was brazen, fearless, arrogant and ra a knife with a shter-in-law andSu looked down on Shen Miao but was very appreciative of Mei Furen
