Metaphysical Talisman Wife Fortune-telling Spirit: Orion eats chaff and I eat meat

Chapter 394 Mu Wanwen falls in love with Chen Huaixian

Princess Yuzhen was so angry that she cried and made trouble outside His Majesty the Emperor's bedchamber. Finally, she was allowed to enter the bedchamber.

When the father and son in the dormitory fell into her eyes, she was so frightened that her crying stopped abruptly.

Looking at the familiar face of the former prince, she finally understood why her father refused to see her.

It's not that he doesn't want to see him at all, he is afraid that he will see the former prince!

The emperor secretly summoned the deposed prince. What does it mean?
Are you planning to change the crown prince?
Before broad daylight, could a princess like me, who was just waiting for death, know such secrets? !

In panic, Princess Yuzhen knelt down, and a villain came to complain first.

"I'm here to see my father...Father, I don't want to disturb you. Something really big has happened!"

His Majesty the Emperor said calmly: "Oh? What's the big deal?"

Princess Yuzhen pointed in the direction of the Royal Ancestral Hall: "Do you still remember the pair of golden silk and jade Ruyi that we enshrined in front of the ancestral tablet?"

His Majesty the Emperor's expression became solemn: "Of course I remember, what's the matter?"

"That jade Ruyi was stolen! The person who stole the Ruyi jade was the wife of a young general who came to pacify the Western Army today."

Princess Yuzhen complained, not forgetting to pay attention to His Majesty the Emperor's expression.

His Majesty the Emperor looked solemn, but Yang Ynzhao looked shocked.

Good luck with gold and jade? !

That is a treasure enshrined in front of the ancestral tablet!

Was it actually stolen?
Fortunately, Yang Yunzhao also knew that his current status was not suitable for participating in political affairs. He refrained from speaking and only looked at His Majesty the Emperor.

When His Majesty the Emperor heard this, he suddenly laughed: "Where did you know about this? Tell me the whole story?"

Princess Yuzhen: How can you tell the truth?

Naturally, the theory of amendment needs to be revised.

So Princess Yuzhen pretended to be aggrieved and explained.

"I was drinking tea in the tea house today, and I saw the generals of the Pingxi Army riding into the city. My son... my son happened to see one of the young generals with a handsome appearance and amazing momentum..."

"My daughter is not young anymore... She just wanted to know more about her, but unexpectedly she heard that he already has a wife. My daughter just wants to see what his wife looks like, but she doesn't want to give up."

"Unexpectedly, his wife directly brought out the golden silk jade Ruyi, saying that it was given to her by the emperor..."

After Princess Yuzhen finished speaking, she kowtowed violently: "Father, I know it's my fault that I have fallen in love with her husband, but I really have no ill intentions..."

After hearing this, His Majesty the Emperor remained silent for a long time.

Princess Yuzhen kneeling on the ground: Should I continue to crawl? Can you still raise your head?
After waiting for a long time, His Majesty the Emperor did not speak. Princess Yuzhen felt a little panicked: "Father, it is my fault, please punish me..."

She has always used retreat to advance.

After a long time, His Majesty the Emperor finally spoke: "You are indeed not young anymore. Do you want to marry into someone else's family? Or do you want to recruit a consort to open a house on your own?"

Princess Yuzhen: "Ah?"

Aren't you talking about Jinsi Yuruyi?
Why did my father just skip it?

Could it be that I didn't speak clearly enough? Did you mislead your father?
His Majesty the Emperor knew what his daughter was thinking. He thought about the little time he had and sighed.

"The young general you are interested in should be your imperial uncle's heir and your brother, Chen Huaijin."

"His wife is the sect leader of the Xuantian Sect. I summoned her today. I gave her the golden silk jade Ruyi as a treasure to suppress the sect."

"Is there anything else you don't understand?"

Princess Yuzhen blinked her eyes, with a look of indigestion shock on her face: "I didn't understand..." She had been in the capital all day long, so why did she suddenly hear so many words that she didn't understand today?
His Majesty the Emperor: "That's all... do you want to marry into someone else's family? Or do you want to recruit a consort to open a mansion on your own?"

Princess Yuzhen understood this time: His Majesty the Emperor doesn't care about Jinsi Yuruyi, he just wants to solve the problem for himself.

And it’s a choice between two, there is no third option.

Marrying into another family means that your consort will have certain abilities and power to enter the court in the future.

Recruiting a consort to open a mansion alone means that the consort can only receive a sinecure and a salary, but cannot hold real power.

There are pros and cons to both, and it’s really hard to weigh them all at the moment.

Seeing his daughter lowering her head and saying nothing, His Majesty the Emperor thought that she was still thinking about Chen Huaijin, so he waved his hand with a headache: "You go down first, I will think about what to do."

Princess Yuzhen left the palace sadly. As soon as she went out, His Majesty the Emperor's personal eunuch warned her in a low voice: "What the princess saw today, please remember not to mention it to outsiders."

"...Yes." Princess Yuzhen felt a chill in her heart as she thought of the appearance of the former prince Yang Yunchao.

The desire to survive has increased, and the depression about Chen Huaijin's unrequited wish has disappeared.

……

That night, the eldest son of the Mu family, Mu Zhaopeng, and his wife, Shen Danxia, ​​discussed for a long time. They both felt very sorry that Mu Wanwen did not nod in time to marry Chen Huaixian.

Shen Danxia hesitated again and again, looked at her husband and said, "Is it too late to talk about getting married now?"

Mu Zhaopeng was unsure: "I heard from my father that today I was pregnant and said in public that I was engaged."

"Maybe it's Huai Xian's excuse? How long has he been here? Where did he get the engagement?"

Mu Zhaopeng thought about it and said, "Then I'll ask Huai Xian?"

Shen Danxia was worried about Mu Wanwen: "I'd better ask Wen'er. This girl is very ambitious. Don't look back and we have settled. She herself is not happy."

Mu Zhaopeng almost made his wife laugh: "She doesn't even like the prince's heir, who is she going to marry?!"

Shen Danxia: "..."

Sure enough, when Shen Danxia went to see Mu Wanwen, Mu Wanwen responded shyly, half-pushing and half-offending: "But it's up to my parents to make the decision."

It means I agreed!

Shen Danxia slapped her thigh: "You should have told me earlier... I will tell your father right now."

Mu Zhaopeng confirmed his daughter's thoughts, and after thinking about it, he ran to find Taifu Mu.

This matter concerns Chen Huaixian, and he cannot make his own decisions.

Taifu Mu had no sleep tonight and was sitting in the study, thinking about today's events in his mind. When he heard that his son was looking for him, he immediately let him in.

When he learned the ins and outs of Mu Wanwen's incident, he also frowned deeply.

"If we were pregnant in Yongzhou Mansion, we could say we were married off. Even if we are pregnant now and become the crown prince's heir, we are not afraid of what others will say."

"But now that Wen'er is pregnant with the heir who is now a mighty marquis and crown prince, Wen'er was unwilling before. If she wants to marry him now, that would be too much."

After all, in the Taifu Mansion, there is only one Taifu Mu who is still in the court.

Taifu Mu is getting old, and his two sons are now at home waiting to take the imperial examination. In the past, they were just scholars, not even candidates, and could not become officials in the court.

Typical inconsistency.

Mu Zhaopeng also knew that his father was telling the truth, but the opportunity was right in front of him. After all, he was already married to Chen Huai, and he was still close to him.

If you miss this time, once Chen Huaixian really gets engaged in a few days, it will be too late!

Taifu Mu thought for a while and said to the boy next to him: "Go and ask Marquis Weiwu to come to my study."
