The Evil Emperor Pursues His Wife: Sheng Chong Shifei

Chapter 150 Asking for a Marriage
"See Your Majesty." There were a lot of people kneeling in the courtyard.

Chu Huaitian walked into the yard with his hands behind his back, first looked at the corner of the yard, where the corpses of the red scarf thieves were neatly arranged, and on the other side were the murdered girl from Shangguan Qing's family, the guard who died in battle from Princess Xiyue's house, and There are some black cavalry and soldiers and horses who died in battle.

He counted in his heart, Shangguan Qing lost more than 30 people.

"It's a pity." Chu Huaitian regretted in his heart. These girls came from different mansions. They were originally different people, but under the guidance of Shangguan Qing, they all grew up to be talents with both civil and military skills. Medical surgery, knitting and embroidery, medicinal cooking.

Chu Huaitian wanted to carry one into the palace, and promised to be close.

"Prince."

"My son is here." The prince walked out quickly, bowed his head respectfully and stood beside Chu Huaitian.

"Can you explain to me why the red scarf thieves are among the imperial guards in your prince's mansion?" Chu Huaitian said plainly, but scared the prince.

Once the crown prince changed his bossy attitude towards Chu Qianhan, he knelt down and kowtowed and said, "Father and emperor clearly see that this minister is guilty, and when I return, I will replace all the guards."

Chu Huaitian snorted coldly and said, "It's time to find someone to take care of you."

"Father, please punish me." The prince did not dare to raise his head, but his heart jumped a few times.

Chu Qianhan also sank, seeing that Chu Huaitian was going to make trouble again, he took a step forward and said loudly: "Father, my son has something to say."

Chu Huaitian looked over playfully and asked, "What's the matter?"

"My son and Miss Shangguan Qing are in love with each other, and their love is deep. Such a disaster happened today, which further confirms my mind. My son asks my father to give me a marriage. My son wants to marry Shangguan Qing as my concubine."

Chu Qianhan went all out.

"No." Chu Huaitian smiled maliciously.

Xiyue, Chu Qiankang, Chu Qianren, and Chu Qianyu who were watching from the side did not expect that Chu Qianhan would be so direct, let alone that Chu Huaitian would directly veto it.

These two people are too direct, saying that their fathers have the same temperament, or that they don't like each other.

Chu Qianhan knelt down and begged, "I beg your father to help you."

The crown prince rolled his eyes, kowtowed and said: "I also fall in love with Miss Shangguan Qing, and I am willing to marry Miss Shangguan as my concubine, and I also ask my father to make it happen."

"Oh, that's interesting. You all want to take on Shangguan Qing, but I want to see what makes her special."

Chu Huaitian looked around and asked, "Where is Shangguan Qing?"

Chu Qianhan replied: "Shangguan Qing was frightened and was seriously injured a few days ago. My son sent her to rest."

"You are sympathetic and cherish the jade. You called Shangguan Qing here. I want to see her." Seeing Chu Qianhan's interesting expression, Chu Huaitian decided to make a fuss.

Chu Qianhan's face was ugly, and he wanted to stop him, but Chu Qiankang grabbed him, and Chu Qiankang said in a low voice: "Third brother, don't disobey the emperor's will." He grabbed Chu Qianhan's hand very hard, reminding Chu Qiankang Han grasped the measure, arguing with the emperor would only make Shangguan Qing suffer more.

Not long after, Shangguan Qing was carried over, while Zhu Qing and the others were isolated outside with anxious expressions.

Chu Qianhan saw that his heart ached to death, at this time Shangguan Qing's face was pale and he fell into a deep coma.She used embroidery needles to save people and helped Chu Qianhan with the peony picture just now, and she overdrawn her strength again.

Kong Qu, the head of the servants, said: "Your Majesty, the Lord Bao'an has been in a coma for a long time, so the slaves had to bring him here. The imperial doctor said that the Lord Bao'an is short of energy and blood, and his soul is damaged. There is a sign that the oil is exhausted and the lamp is dry."

Kong Qu's voice became lower and lower, and the faces of Chu Qianhan, Chu Qiankang, and the Seventeenth Prince Chu Qianyu all changed.

Seeing the ugly faces of his sons, Chu Huaitian really admired Shangguan Qing's charm, and at the same time dispelled his doubts about Shangguan Qing, how could such a weak person who was dying could kill the eldest princess.

"Who the hell is it?" Chu Huaitian thought in his heart, walked to Shangguan Qing's soft couch and squatted down, reached out and grabbed Shangguan Qing's wrist for inspection.

There is no resistance to the input of vitality, and it runs around in the veins of Shangguan Qing's body.

Chu Huaitian frowned. He needed Shangguan Qing's wisdom, and he didn't want Shangguan Qing to grow beyond his control, so he secretly laid hands on it. It was the so-called test. Now that the target of the test was about to die, he remembered the meaning of the word Lixian Corporal .

Shangguan Qing's wisdom represents a kind of technical advantage. At the beginning, Shangguan Qing described a complete railway system for Chu Huaitian, connecting the world through roads, collecting lijin, taxes, and freight to increase central revenue, and opening postal services to subsidize local governments. Finance expanded the bureaucratic system, and used the road guards to deter the giants of military states in various places.The overall plan is to use the newly increased financial resources to strengthen the power of the central government and realize a pattern in which the central government suppresses local governments with strong branches and weak branches.For the royal family of Chu State whose power is difficult to leave the capital, this plan is extremely attractive, and it is also the most practical plan Chu Huaitian has ever heard.This is also the main reason why Chu Huaitian wanted to restrict Shangguan Qing.

"Where's Liu Liuniang?"

Chu Huaitian inquired, and a servant immediately called Liu Liuniang over. At this moment, Liu Liuniang had bandages on her arms, her face was sallow, and she looked worriedly at Shangguanqing from time to time.

"Your Majesty." Liu Liuniang knelt down awkwardly.It turned out that in addition to her arm, her calf was also injured.

Chu Huaitian asked: "How many manuscripts of the Lord Bao'an have survived?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, there are backups for the early ones. In recent months, the study room has been listed as a forbidden area, and no backups have been made. All of them were burned in the fire a few days ago. The Lord of Bao'an County has been in poor health. In the past few days, only one painting A sketch of a new house to be built in the yard."

"Bring it to me."

"promise."

Liu Liuniang went to Shangguan Qing's previous room, found a picture folder under the dilapidated cabinet, dusted off the dust on it, and brought it over. After being inspected by a servant, she presented it to Chu Huaitian for viewing.

The sketches are drawn with charcoal blocks, which are the same as Shangguan Qing's previous drawings, with many cumbersome lines, neat and orderly, and there is a kind of harmonious beauty between squares and squares.Different from the carved beams and painted buildings that are common in Dachu, this is a stone building with a dome.

Chu Huaitian thought the style was weird, but the appearance was beautiful, especially the details in Shangguan Qing's exclusive description, where the stones were slanted to form different patterns.

Shangguan Qing's painting is a layout of stones inserted obliquely, which is a design used by modern people to build seawalls, which can survive waves for thousands of years without being destroyed.

Chu Huaitian couldn't understand it, but thought it was very pretty.

"Not doing business properly." Chu Huaitian muttered, what he needed were forging hammers, blast furnaces, cement kilns and other designs, not useless beautiful houses.

"Qianhan." Chu Huaitian thought of the burned study again. If the manuscript had not been burned, even if Shangguan Qing died, he would be able to recover part of the loss.

"My son is here." Chu Qianhan stepped forward again.

Chu Huaitian gritted his teeth and asked, "Tell me, why did you burn the study of the county magistrate of Bao'an? Don't you know how important her manuscripts are to the court?"

Chu Qianhan pushed back with one sentence: "I only know that she is regarded as a dispensable victim."
