Chapter 103
After reading the imperial decree, Ji Yuan congratulated the prince with a smile, pretending not to see the expressions on his face.

"My servant congratulates His Highness the Crown Prince. Congratulations to His Highness the Crown Prince for finding a good match. Your Highness, accept the order?"

It took a long time for the prince to digest the sudden news, and he was still in a daze, "Why did the father suddenly give Gu a marriage?"

Ji Yuan smiled and said: "Your Highness has reached the marriageable age, it's time to get married."

The prince frowned, "But—"

"Prince!" The queen interrupted him suddenly.

The prince looked up at her forbearance, and saw the queen stand up holding Shui Lian's hand expressionlessly, and smiled at him with lowered eyes: "Your father's kindness, how can you live up to it? Accept the order, Lou Yuhe That girl Bengong also knows that her appearance, conduct and family background are all top-notch, and you will definitely like her in the future."

The Queen's words were soft and gentle, but her eyes clearly implied a warning.

The prince suddenly woke up.

Ji Yuan looked at the queen, and said with a flattering smile: "What the empress said is absolutely true."

He stretched his hand forward again: "His Royal Highness?"

The prince held his breath, lowered his head and raised his hands, and said resignedly, "I accept the decree, thank you Lord Long for your kindness."

Only then did Ji Yuan put the imperial decree in his hands at ease: "The imperial decree has been delivered, and this slave will go back and report to the emperor."

"Walk slowly." The queen didn't even look at him, and turned to help the prince, "Get up."

Ji Yuan rubbed his nose embarrassingly, then turned around and led the people away.

The prince stood up with the support of the queen, his hands were still tightly clutching the imperial decree, with great strength, as if he wanted to crush the imperial decree directly.

The queen was not happy. Although she didn't like Xie Cijiu, she wanted to show the bad breath on Xie Cijiu for so many years. She wanted to take it slowly and arrange opportunities for the prince later, but she didn't expect the emperor's Move so fast!
Directly issued the marriage decree without discussing with himself in advance, it seemed that he was really suspicious of himself.

The queen put her hands back in her sleeves, and pinched the palms of her hands.

This is directly cutting off the prince and himself!
After all, once the princess, how could she be a concubine for the prince?

"Mother's queen..." The prince clenched his teeth, and the side of his face was tensed, as if to maintain his last sanity.

The queen didn't care about the mess in her heart, so she comforted the prince first and said, "Let's talk after you come in."

The queen dragged the prince into the main hall.

As soon as he entered, the prince couldn't bear it anymore, he patted the imperial decree aside, and said angrily: "Father knows that the son likes the princess, and he was the one who let us get in touch at the beginning, why did things suddenly change now? ?”

Frustrated one after another within a day, even if he is as tolerant and gentle as a prince, he can't bear it.

Only those who have experienced it will know the pain of missing the one you love.

The prince sank back into the chair, covering his face with his hands.

It was a lie for the queen to say that she didn't feel distressed, but as soon as she thought that he looked like this because of that person's daughter, she felt sick again.

She leaned on the armrest with one hand, pressed her temple, and tasted the burnt feeling again.

"Su'er, the imperial decree has been issued, and the emperor's order is hard to disobey, so you can only accept it."

The queen said so, but she didn't think so at all in her heart, but she couldn't tell the prince that this son was too upright, and if he said it, he might turn against her.

The prince froze and took a deep breath, "Yes, I understand, I understand..."

The prince choked up, and said with a bitter smile: "My son is just a little sad, and I will be fine after a while."

The queen paused, raised her head to look at him, and wanted to persuade him, but the prince stood up by himself, "Mother, I want to go back, sorry."

The queen's words stuck in her throat, and finally she could only wave her hands and say, "Go."

The prince picked up the imperial decree and left in a daze.

The queen sat for a while, then suddenly raised her hand and swept all the teacups beside her to the ground, cursing: "Your Majesty, you are so cruel! I have been so blind for so many years!"

Her sharp voice echoed in the hall for a long time before falling.

……

There are two copies of the imperial decree, one is sent to the prince, and the other is sent to the British government.

Although people are different, the shock is indeed the same.

The entire British government was in a daze from top to bottom, and it wasn't until the eunuch who passed the decree was sent away that everyone came back to their senses.

All kinds of curious and probing eyes fell on Lou Yuhe.

Lou Yuhe: "...Father, mother, what are you doing looking at me like that?"

"He'er, what's the matter with you and the crown prince?"

The British Duke stroked his beard, and looked at her hesitantly: "Why did you suddenly give the marriage?"

Lou Yuhe was at a loss: "I don't know, I'm still surprised. Didn't you say that the princess was settled before? When I was in Liuyun Temple, the princess also saved the prince. I thought this matter would be settled after I came back. , how could it become me?"

The British Duchess frowned and pondered for a moment: "Since the imperial decree has been issued, it is useless for us to think so much, let's get ready."

"That's right, no matter what, He'er has gotten what he wanted. The prince is a good person, but he is the crown prince and will become emperor in the future. I don't know if He'er's temperament can control the Sangong and Sixth Courtyard?"

The British public was a little worried.

Lou Yuhe was not too optimistic either. Before, she was always thinking of the crown prince, and she would be very happy if she received the imperial decree of marriage, but now she is not happy, and even hesitates.

"Let's take one step at a time, who can tell what will happen in the future?"

The Duke's wife took Lou Yuhe's hand, and comforted him in a warm voice: "Don't be afraid, He'er, no matter what happens in the future, the Duke of England will always be your backing."

Lou Yuhe nodded: "Yes."

"Let's go, go back."

Lou Yuhe glanced at the imperial decree and secretly made a decision.

……

The gift of marriage caused quite a stir in Beijing, and everyone in the streets and alleys was talking about it, but the matter in southern Xinjiang was suppressed.

After Xie Cijiu found out, he was surprised, and then smiled.

Yan Zhihui watched from the side, and asked with some taste: "The crown prince is going to marry someone else, how do you feel?"

Xie Cijiu gave him a puzzled look: "What does it have to do with me?"

Yan Zhi replied: "..."

"Heh~" He chuckled lightly, "That's right."

Xie Cijiu fiddled with the leaves of the gardenia, picked up a small spoon and poured water around the bottom.

Yan Zhihui propped his chin and looked at her: "But it's strange to say, when the emperor met for the first time, he obviously wanted to match you and the crown prince, why did he change his mind now?"

Xie Ci took a pause, frowned and asked him, "Just say what you want, don't go around in circles."

Yan Zhihui slightly raised his eyebrows, and a sly light flashed across his eyes: "Oh? You like to speak straight?"

Xie Cijiu turned back and snorted perfunctorily.

 Yan Zhihui: Get out of the way, I'm going to show off
