The Prime Minister Seduced Me to have Babies!-Chapter 654: Dog Bastard
The Emperor laughed heartily, "Imperial Sister, your temper is still so fiery. Alright, alright, I understand. It’s not too late to choose a Prince Consort for Shoukang after the spring imperial examinations in the year after next."
He pondered for a moment, "However, I’m afraid that marrying a woman of too low a standing might not befit the responsibility of being the mistress of the Duke Mansion, Yu Zhi."
The Princess gave the Emperor a sidelong glance and said in a half-joking, half-serious tone, "Is Your Majesty now also going to meddle in the domestic affairs of ministers?"
The Emperor laughed and waved his hand, "I won’t, I won’t. I only concern myself with state affairs."
"Come, come, Yan Aiqing, let’s continue playing chess."
The Princess stood up, "You continue, Your Majesty. I take my leave."
The Emperor waved his hand, and the Princess withdrew.
As she walked out to the door, the Princess gave a signal to the eunuch guarding the entrance.
The eunuch lowered his eyes.
After the Princess had gone some distance, Yan Beichen suddenly said, "I remember that a few days ago, Your Majesty mentioned to me the intention to grant a marriage between Princess Shoukang and the Young Master. The Princess arrived just in time."
The matter of granting marriage was actually something he had subtly influenced the Emperor to propose himself that day. He first praised the Young Master for his extraordinary talents and appearance, then casually mentioned Princess Shoukang’s marriage, and then skillfully guided the conversation, leaving the Emperor to naturally make the connection.
As for Consort Chen, he also sent words, so Consort Chen also whispered suggestions to the Emperor.
Originally, Yan Beichen entered the palace today intending to guide the Emperor to issue an imperial decree, solidifying the marriage grant. Once the decree was made, it would be too late for everything.
The Duke Mansion also wouldn’t be able to defy the decree and slap the Emperor in the face.
He felt that a woman as proud as Gu Yunjiao would disdain becoming a concubine.
In time, he could divorce his wife and marry her.
Unexpectedly, the Princess’s absurd meddling completely dispelled the Emperor’s thoughts on the matter.
He knew that he couldn’t bring up the marriage again; the Emperor wasn’t a fool, and he had already said enough today.
However, as the Princess ruined his plan, he seized the chance to plant a seed of doubt in the Emperor’s mind, suggesting that the Princess had spies in the palace, which also let him vent his frustration in a way.
When the Emperor heard Yan Beichen’s words, his hand clutching the chess piece tightened and, after a long pause, slowly placed it down.
The Princess stormed out of the palace in anger.
That dog, Yan Beichen, though she had always disliked him, she and the Yan Family had kept to their own without interfering with each other.
She had once privately advised the Emperor several times not to favor the Yan family father and son, but as the Emperor didn’t listen, she eventually stopped mentioning it.
Today, that dog seemed to have lost his mind, insisting on interrupting and opposing her.
Upon returning to the Princess Mansion, Jiang Zhongxing was waiting in the residence. Seeing the Princess enter angrily, he asked, "Mother, what’s wrong? Did the Emperor refuse?"
The Princess sat down and took a sip of water before saying, "When I entered the palace, Yan Beichen was playing chess with the Emperor, that dog, today I don’t know if he ate something rotten, whatever I said, he would oppose it from the side. If I hadn’t lost my temper, this matter would have been difficult to handle."
Jiang Zhongxing slammed the table fiercely, "That dog, he covets Jiao Jiao. Last time, Yun Jiao nearly got kidnapped when she returned from your villa!"
"He’s insatiable, wanting to break up Yu Zhi and Yun Jiao!"
The Princess squinted her eyes, "No wonder. I was wondering why he was coming after me without any reason today."
"Yan Beichen is exactly a lecherous ghost, with a house full of wives and concubines, yet he still wants to make a move on our family’s bride!"
Jiang Zhongxing hesitated for a moment, "How about letting Yu Zhi and Yun Jiao get married earlier?"
