Delicate green plum dressed as the little emperor of green tea

Chapter 321
But when the emperor himself was young, he was no different from Lu Zhan.

He liked Empress Rong, so he would rather disobey his father's wishes and marry Empress Rong as his wife.

However, the situation at that time was not the same as it is now.

He is the royal father's son, the former prince committed a mistake and was imprisoned, so his succession to the throne is justified.

Even if he didn't marry his uncle's younger sister as the queen, the uncle was still his uncle, and it was impossible for him to support others to be the crown prince - King Han was young at that time.

And Empress Rong's background is not bad.

But Lu Zhan was different. Lu Zhan was young and the son of a vassal king. The reason why he became the crown prince was the result of a game between him and King Han.

Not to mention that Lu Zhan is only the crown prince now, even if Lu Zhan ascends the throne in the future, he will be staring at him from left and right.

It is difficult for him to maintain his throne.

In the early stage, it must be to balance the forces of all parties, and then secretly cultivate their own forces, or take the forces of King Han into their own hands, and when the wings are full, they will wipe out King Han's party.

To balance the forces of all parties, it is necessary to admit the children of each family into the palace.

The emperor was very patient with such a high-spirited young man who was also his heir.

"It's true that you want to marry the woman you love as your main wife, but you are the prince, so you are destined not to do whatever you want." The emperor pointed out a clear path for Lu Zhan, "You can take this as the final result."

"As long as you can finally marry your sweetheart as the queen, it doesn't really matter what the process is."

"Become a qualified prince first, and at this time you will have enough ability to protect your sweetheart. Wouldn't it be beautiful then?"

The emperor finally said bluntly: "If you want to stubbornly marry your sweetheart as your wife, then you are harming her."

Lu Zhan could understand the truth, but he couldn't accept it.

"I will think about it carefully." Lu Zhan said.

The emperor knew that when Lu Zhan heard it, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Lu Zhan walked from the imperial palace to the gate of the eastern palace - the prince's palace had been arranged a long time ago, and he moved here a few days ago.

Because he just came in, besides him, there was only Princess Jiangling in the palace, so it was quite empty.

Lu Zhan walked in the long alley leading to his bedroom, feeling a little dazed.

When he was the heir son of Prince Jiangling, he was restricted by Princess Jiangling and could only marry the princess' niece as his wife.

After he became the crown prince, he was controlled by many people, and he still couldn't decide his own marriage.

His hard work all these years is like a joke.

The young man who used to be radiant and energetic, now feels a little defeated and desolate.

When Lu Zhan came to Princess Jiangling, the princess was also frightened by his appearance.

It is obvious that he has become a crown prince under one person and above ten thousand people, and he is in high spirits on happy occasions, but Lu Zhan doesn't look like this.

"I heard that early this morning, someone proposed to choose a concubine for you, but you rejected it." The princess has her own eyes and ears, and it is not unusual to know such things.

Lu Zhan said: "My son is still young, I don't want to be so early."

"You're not too young." The concubine interrupted Lu Zhan, "You are fourteen this year. Although ordinary people don't have a wife at the age of fourteen, they still have a house."

"When you came to the capital from Jiangling, apart from making good friends with Xie's family, you are also unfamiliar with the place. It is the time when you need to rely on marriage to win the relationship with the various families. It is imperative to choose a concubine."

Concubine Jiangling spoke bluntly as usual, "And the more concubines you choose, the better."

Lu Zhan raised his head and looked at the princess with some doubts, "What about my cousin?"

He knew that the princess loved his niece and niece very much, and almost treated Qi Ru as her own daughter.

Now that he wants to choose a concubine, Qi Ru can only be a concubine at most.

Is the princess willing to have her own niece as a concubine?

"In the past, you were the son of the royal family, and it was just right to marry Qi Ru, but now that you are the crown prince, Qi Ru's status is not enough. At most, I will be your concubine." The princess sighed, "There is no way to do this. , let’s always take one step at a time.”

"The reason why you are so depressed is because you want to marry Qi Ru?" The princess said in surprise, "I never knew when you fell in love with Qi Ru so deeply."

Lu Zhan opened his mouth, but did not defend himself.

Only then did Princess Jiangling have a smile on her face, "My concubine is very glad that you are still thinking about Qi Ru at this time, but Qi Ru's status is more than enough for you to be your wife in Jiangling, this country is no better than Jiangling, the status of the prince No better than the Son of Heaven."

"Both Concubine Mu and Concubine Qi can compromise temporarily for you. If you treat Qi Ru better in the future, Concubine Mother will be satisfied."

Lu Zhan nodded.

Princess Jiangling has been feigning illness in the capital for many years, and she has big plans. She is not an ignorant woman without vision. On the contrary, she knows that although Lu Zhan is the heir apparent, Lu Zhan's situation is worse than before.

The position of the crown prince is one step higher than tens of millions of people, and one step back will be smashed to pieces.

In particular, Lu Zhan, the crown prince, is different. He belongs to the game between the emperor and the king of Han, and finally has no choice but to choose.

Princess Jiangling had never met the emperor, and the emperor didn't know whether Lu Zhan valued her or not.

But she knew that King Han was making a plan and then moving. One day, King Han would hold a knife against Lu Zhan.

Thinking of this, Princess Jiangling's original joy because Lu Zhan still missed Qi Ru was of course gone.

"Although you are the crown prince, the position of the crown prince is not stable. Now is not the time to be obsessed with the love of your children. The matter of choosing a concubine is temporarily settled, and the more the better." The princess made the decision for Lu Zhan concisely.

After talking with the princess, Lu Zhan also truly confirmed his current situation.

Facts have proved that his road to marrying a wife is long and difficult.

But no matter how difficult it is, he will overcome all difficulties.

Isn't it just to fight King Han?

In the second day, the emperor ordered the queen to arrange the selection of concubines for the prince, and each family sent their girls of the right age to the queen and the prince, hoping to serve them around.

Shen Yue is the crown prince's concubine by default, and other families also have their daughters as the crown prince's side concubine.

Among them, Rong Zixin, the daughter of a side branch of the Rongguo Duke's mansion, and Kou Ya, the granddaughter of the old general Kou, are the crown prince Fengyi, Liang Jianxin, the seventh daughter of Liang Taishi's mansion, is the crown prince Zhaoxun, and Liang Wan, the righteous daughter newly recognized by the Marquis of Liang, is the crown prince Chengzheng. And there are a few unpopular ladies who are good for the prince.

The wedding day between Lu Zhan and Shen Yue was fixed on the ninth day of September. The prince had a happy event, but his face was as cold as ice, and he didn't look like he was going to marry a wife at all.

Zhen Baozhu also heard the news that Lu Zhan was going to marry a wife, which was what she had expected.

She even looked forward to the fact that Brother Zhan would become the emperor in the future, so that she could do whatever she wanted.

But when Lu Zhan became the crown prince, she wanted to visit brother Zhan several times, but was blocked by the servants in the crown prince's womb, saying that she needed to pass it on.

She felt quite boring.

Brother Zhan has become the prince, and there will be countless concubines in the future, and Brother Zhan will no longer be her alone.

If she wanted to see Brother Zhan, she had to hand over the sign first and get permission before she could see anyone.

In the future, when Brother Zhan married his wife, it would be difficult for her to find him again.
