After breaking off the engagement, the daughter-in-law of the Hou family drove the boss in the capit

"By God's blessing, the emperor issued an edict: I am very pleased to hear that the daughter of Marquis Wu'an, Princess Jian Yue, is skillful, generous, and has outstanding appearance. Now that the prince has become marriageable, he should be a worthy match for Princess Jian Yue. In the boudoir, the prince and the prince are a match made in heaven. To achieve the beauty of a beautiful woman, Princess Jian Yue will be betrothed to the prince as his concubine. All the etiquette will be jointly handled by the Ministry of Rites and the Qin Tian Jian, and the marriage will be completed at a good time!"

Eunuch Zhuo stood in the courtyard of the princess's mansion, with a large number of people kneeling in front of him, led by Lin Jianyue and Cheng Yu.

When Eunuch Zhuo finished announcing his decree, Lin Jianyue and Cheng Yu didn't move.

"Princess? Princess is so happy!" Eunuch Zhuo reminded, looking at the palace man behind him and explaining with a smile, making excuses for Lin Jianyue's delay.

Just when Lin Jianyue stood up, Cheng Yu held Lin Jianyue's arm.

This marriage decree came so inexplicably and suddenly that neither Cheng Yu nor Lin Jianyue could react or make any preparations.

But Cheng Yu was filled with anger at this moment. He knew how much his cousin had paid since she was engaged to the former prince, and then suffered such betrayal.

What's more, Cheng Yu knew very well in his heart what the royal family was planning. It was just for the wealth in his cousin's hands. As long as his cousin accepted this imperial edict, he would be the daughter-in-law of the royal family and the future crown princess. Every word and deed of his cousin would be restrained. She It will be like walking on thin ice.

Lin Jianyue looked at her cousin who was kneeling next to her and holding her arm tightly, and understood her cousin's concerns and anger.

But compared to her cousin, she was much calmer.

She whispered, "Cousin, I believe in the prince!"

Even though this imperial edict came with force, many people even felt that it was Shen Weixun's handiwork. After all, Shen Weixun had shown his affection for him in front of outsiders. Now that he was firmly seated in the East Palace, if he entered the East Palace by himself, he would be even more powerful.

But Lin Jianyue didn't believe that Shen Weixun was such a person. The Shen Weixun she knew well was a true gentleman and would never act so despicably.

Even if she saw the wrong person or believed in the wrong person, she still admitted it.

Now that the imperial edict is in front of her, she can't resist it. She can only accept it first, and then she can slowly understand what is going on and come up with other ways.

Cheng Yu met his cousin's eyes and instantly understood what his cousin meant.

Cheng Yu didn't feel that her cousin was smart and calm, but felt pity for her.

Most girls' families don't have such an almost cruel calmness, but if they can be like my cousin, they have to go through too much suffering.

If possible, Cheng Yu and his family hope that his cousin can be more indulgent, even if he is ignorant, instead of being so forbearing in everything.

"My daughter accepts the edict, thank you Your Majesty!" Lin Jianyue saluted and took the edict with both hands.

Eunuch Zhuo breathed a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that Lin Jianyue would resist and disobey the decree. Although Emperor Dongshan was seriously ill now, if he wanted to deal with a woman, it would only be a matter of one sentence. Fortunately, Lin Jianyue was awake. .

"Congratulations, Princess!" Eunuch Zhuo complimented with a smile.

Lin Jianyue accompanied the smiling face and naturally invited Eunuch Zhuo to have a cup of tea, and the palace officials who came together to announce the decree were also properly entertained by Cheng Yu.

"Look at the clothes on my father-in-law. They are all old. By coincidence, I just got a few pieces of Shu brocade in the past few days, so that my father-in-law can make a few clothes!" Lin Jianyue said, while Li En beside him brought tea and picked up a few pieces of Shu brocade. The wrapped Shu brocade was placed in front of Eunuch Zhuo. "Princess, what are you doing? How many good things do you want from our family? Besides, we are just slaves. How can we wear such good materials? The princess should keep it and make some clothes for herself!" Eunuch Zhuo hurriedly said He declined.

"Look at what my father-in-law said. He is a popular person around the emperor. Why can't he wear this Shu brocade? From now on, my father-in-law will also be a popular person around the prince!" Lin Jianyue pointed out.

When Eunuch Zhuo heard this, he quickly knelt down. Lin Jianyue went to help him, but Eunuch Zhuo couldn't get up.

These days, Eunuch Zhuo has seen with his own eyes that Dongshan Emperor's health is getting worse and worse, and he also understands that Dongshan Emperor's time is not long.

Normally, if His Majesty dies, slaves like him who serve him closely will not end well. Some of them will be tortured to death in the palace even if they live after drinking a glass of poisoned wine.

But now Lin Jianyue's words clearly told Eunuch Zhuo not to worry, she was the future crown princess, and Eunuch Zhuo also knew how much the prince valued Lin Jianyue. With Lin Jianyue's words, at least his The second half of life won't be too hard.

"The princess's great kindness to the old slave, the old slave will remember it in his heart. From now on, as long as the princess says a word, the old slave will never give up!" Eunuch Zhuo's voice was a little choked.

He seemed to be the most favored servant around the emperor, but Eunuch Zhuo knew very well that no matter it was the emperor or the courtiers and concubines, everyone who treated him as a human being would treat him like a lost dog once the emperor left.

But Lin Jianyue was the only one who saved him once, always thought of him, and now planned his future, how could he not be grateful.

"What did Eunuch Zhuo say? Eunuch Zhuo has always taken good care of me these years!" Lin Jianyue helped Eunuch Zhuo stand up.

After Eunuch Zhuo sat down, he considered and said, "Seeing that the princess was given a marriage, she seemed unhappy. Forgive me for talking. The current prince's words and deeds are much nobler than those of the former prince. He is also sincere towards the princess. If the princess enters The East Palace is also a good choice!”

"I understand what father-in-law means, but I also have my own concerns!" Lin Jianyue said with a smile.

Eunuch Zhuo saw that Lin Jianyue didn't want to talk much, so he naturally didn't ask any more questions. He just mentioned before leaving, "This marriage is your Majesty's intention, and the prince seems to not know it! Now the prince is accompanying your majesty in the palace." , I believe that when the prince is free, he will come and give the princess an explanation!"

Hearing Eunuch Zhuo's words, Lin Jianyue's heart suddenly relaxed and she smiled, "Thank you, Eunuch!"

You know, as Eunuch Zhuo is someone close to His Majesty, he naturally cannot reveal anything about His Majesty, but if he is willing to reveal it now, he is risking his head.

After Eunuch Zhuo left, Lin Jianyue breathed a sigh of relief. At least the marriage was not Shen Weixun's plan, but the Dongshan Emperor's holy decree. This was enough.

"Cousin." Cheng Yu came to Lin Jianyue's side with worry in his voice.

Even Cheng Yu and Cheng Jiabao are still common people and subjects of Dongshan Kingdom. Under the imperial power, the richest man Cheng Jiabao has to obey. This is sad and helpless.

"Cousin, don't be anxious. My father-in-law also said just now that this matter is not what the prince asked for. Maybe things can turn around!" Lin Jianyue said with relief.

Cheng Yu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. It was clear that the problem fell on her cousin, but her cousin was still comforting herself. Shouldn't it be her cousin who should be comforted?

"Cousin, you seem to trust the prince?" Cheng Yu asked tentatively.

"Of course, if you don't believe it, how can you expect him to become the master of Dongshan!" Lin Jianyue's tone was very firm.
