Chapter 364: Chapter 351: Remarry

Yet this sincerity was only a different treatment in the light of his multiple wives and concubines.

In their eyes, being favored by the royal family was fortune for your three lives, how could they tolerate the notion, so contrary to social mores, of lifelong monogamy?

Bring the one you like home, and if the courtyard is not big enough, it can be expanded. As for whether you like this life after being married into the family, that’s not for you to worry about.

Yet Chu Yunzhao was not such a person.

He knew what he, as a prince, should do and had ambitions for power. But when it comes to dealing with people, he was sincere, whether it was to his relatives and close friends, or to Luo Shishan, his heart had never changed.

“Ultimately, it has to depend on Miss Luo’s wishes. If Miss Luo’s heart no longer holds anyone, even a forced marriage arrangement might only make her sad and regrets difficult to calm down.”

Chu Jinnian lowered his head in thought, “For this matter, you don’t have to make any moves yet. Allow me to think about it and see if there is any strategy to address it.”

“However, with the emperor pushing for the marriage, you do need to think about a way to avoid it.”

Delaying the wedding for a while, with a longer period, more changes would naturally happen.

Chu Yunzhao understood Chu Jinnian’s meaning, and nodded with a smile, “This can be easily handled, I have been allergic to lotus since my childhood, and can’t even take it in. Although there are fewer lotus flowers now, they still exist. If I accidentally eat them, I will definitely get very sick, so naturally, everything can be pushed back.”

But if I rest in the palace, you’ll have to take more care of everything. I’m sorry you have to do this.”

Your words make it sound like I don’t care otherwise?” Chu Jinnian glanced at Chu Yunzhao, “Your hard work will not be unappreciated. If I do this for you, the Fourth Prince, I should also get some benefits from you.”

“Just say the word, if it is within my Qingan Garden, you can take it. Even if you want me, I won’t hesitate.”

Chu Yunzhao joked.

“People like you, who need to eat five bowls of rice per meal, I’m afraid my King’s Mansion can’t afford.”

Chu Jinnian turned his face away in disgust, “But now I haven’t thought about what to ask from the Fourth Prince. The Fourth Prince can owe me first, and when I think of it, I’ll ask for it.”

“That’s fine. When you think about it, come and take it.”

Chu Yunzhao said, “The emperor awarded me a few calligraphy and paintings a couple of days ago. I remember you are fond of collecting these, so I ‘ll have someone send them to your house later.”

“The Fourth Prince is thoughtful.” Chu Jinnian stood up, “It’s getting late, so I won’t bother the Fourth Prince any longer.”

Since you rarely come to the palace, aren’t you going to see the Empress?”

Chu Yunzhao suggested. “The Empress misses you a lot, and has been murmuring about you frequently these days.”

Moreover, every time Chu Jinnian entered the palace, he would visit Concubine Hui.

After all, for Chu Jinnian, after the death of his mother, the only relative he had in his eyes was Concubine Hui, his aunt.

“Some other day.” chu Jinnian shook his head, “It seems inappropriate today.”

“Oh?” Chu Yunzhao was slightly surprised.

“Before entering the palace, the King of Qi sent someone to message me to have dinner at home by all means.” Chu Jinnian said, “I don’t know what kind of banquet he’s preparing. After thinking about it, I had better go back and check.”

“This way, instead of continually putting it off, I won’t know what he’s playing.”
