A series of majestic words came into view. Chen Zishu read each word, and cold sweat began to break out on his forehead.

My heart sank little by little, my fingertips trembled slightly, and the imperial edict in my hand seemed to be as heavy as a thousand stones, and I almost had to work hard to hold it steady.

Xiao Junzhan's tone became softer and he said, "Ai Qing, can you understand what this is?"

With a 'plop' sound, Chen Zishu knelt on the ground, held the imperial edict and said: "I know my sin!"

"Get up," Xiao Junzhan said quietly with a gentle expression, "Not many people know about Gu's private affairs. Those who don't know are not guilty. If you love me, you don't have to do this."

 Chen Zishu's mind was like a galloping horse. He almost lost his rational thinking and stood up stiffly.

Suddenly, it occurred to me that a few days ago, His Highness took a woman to the Dali Temple Prison. The person she visited seemed to be...the Jiang family.

 Why didn't he think of it earlier...

Xiao Junzhan looked at his dazed expression quietly, his eyes slightly darkened, and suddenly said: "I have a question, I hope Aiqing can answer it for me."

Chen Zishu cupped his hands and said, "Your Highness, I would like to ask."

"The lonely princess grew up in Xuzhou and returned to Beijing only in March or April." Xiao Junzhan looked slightly calm and said calmly: "When did Aiqing meet her?"

The exact same thing was said. I just asked Wei Hanzhang in the afternoon. If she were in this palace now, I'm afraid she would be angry.

She earnestly coaxed and coaxed, hugged and hugged him, and explained to him for so long...

 He actually didn’t fully believe it.

After Chen Zishu slowly told everything together, he said respectfully: "Miss Wei and Wei Chen have only met these few times and never talked in depth. There is nothing wrong between us. Wei Chen was annoyed by the elders in the family urging him to get married, and he got married." When I found out that she had canceled the marriage, I had the idea of ​​calling my aunt to come and discuss the marriage for me. "

He held the imperial edict in both hands, bowed his hands and said, "I don't mean to offend Miss Wei, please forgive me."

There was no sound in the palace for a moment. Xiao Junzhan closed his eyes slightly, carefully distinguishing whether there was any discrepancy in the explanation between the minister and his sweetheart.

 He couldn't stand the slightest bit of deception on this matter.

  Xiao Junzhan was silent, and Chen Zishu naturally did not dare to make a sound. He stood quietly in the hall and waited for his resignation. There was plenty of cool air from the ice urn in the hall, but a light sweat broke out on his forehead.

Just when Ning Hai served tea, Xiao Junzhan picked up the tea cup, opened the lid and moved it. He didn't know what he was thinking about, and then put it on the imperial table.

 He lowered his eyes and looked down with an indifferent expression. This was his beloved minister that he had used for many years.

Chen Zishu is not low in talent and has good moral character. His love for talents made Xiao Junzhan ignore his family background and promote him unconventionally. Over the years, the emperor and his ministers have been getting along with each other.

According to Xiao Junzhan's plan, among the younger generation of civil servants, Chen Zishu has a place among the few people he focuses on training.

 It is not impossible for him to come out of the pavilion to pay homage to the Prime Minister.

 The midsummer sunset outside the window is red, making the palace even more tranquil.

Xiao Junzhan picked up the tea cup on the table, took a sip of tea, and said slowly: "Ran Ran is fresh and lovely. I didn't know her identity before, so it's human nature to be moved by admiration. I won't blame you."

 Chen Zishu bowed and thanked him, saying he did not dare.

"I will not pursue the past," Xiao Junzhan's expression remained unchanged, and he said softly: "Now that you know who she is, no matter what thoughts you have had, they are all gone... Gu Rong cannot be remembered by others. she."

Xiao Junzhan's tone was calm and his expression did not change, but Chen Zishu felt a chill run down his spine. He actually didn't feel that he was wronged in his heart. After all, as a minister, he fell in love with the same girl as the king, so he was treasonous.

Even if he didn't know about it before, even if everything was just a coincidence, the fact is that he had the intention of marrying His Royal Highness the Crown Princess, and even took action.

 As both men, Chen Zishu asked himself that he could not allow his sweetheart to be missed by other men, let alone the supreme being above ten thousand people.

He sighed in his heart, feeling moved by Hong Luan for the first time in more than 20 years, but he was also afraid that being remembered by His Highness would affect his future, and might also hurt His Highness's feelings for... her. After thinking about it, Chen Zi Shu said slowly: "Wei Chen has taken note of this. I will abide by my duty as a minister and never dare to harbor distracting thoughts."

 Xiao Junzhan nodded slightly, paused briefly, and suddenly said calmly: "In that case, you can take back the things that the Wei Mansion accepted as you sent them there."

  ………

Wei Hanzhang’s inference was correct, but his time calculation was wrong.

I thought I would have to wait until at least tomorrow before Chen Guogong's mansion would take back the generous gifts. I never thought that before nightfall, Mrs. Yongchang Hou visited the gate of Wei's mansion again.

 When she came out, her face was red with anger. It was pitiful that she had been decent all her life and it was the first time she had lost such a big person.

Even though the second son and his niece had a scandal last time about getting pregnant out of wedlock, she was not as embarrassed as this time.

What kind of thing is this? When she came in the afternoon, she was full of joy to find out what her nephew had to say. Although Weifu did not fully agree, he accepted the gift. According to the rules, he could formally come to propose marriage after some time.

She also said that her nephew's marriage was stable this time, but she never expected that not long after returning home, she would be asked to get the gifts back...

  One side is her natal nephew, and the other side is her children's in-laws... She kindly wanted to arrange a marriage for them, but in the end she became a stranger inside and outside.

Especially the Wei family, this time they have offended everyone so much that they probably thought she was deliberately playing tricks on them.

Ms. Liu was indeed annoyed. She didn't understand why her granddaughter's marriage was so twists and turns.

The Gu family broke off the engagement as soon as they broke off the engagement. After all, the princess' daughter fell in love with her and there was nothing they could do.

The Qian family came to discuss marriage, but yesterday they bumped into His Highness the Crown Prince. Qian Silang was not allowed to be an official for five years... He was punished like this by His Highness, and his future was in doubt. Naturally, he was not a good candidate to discuss marriage.

Just when he was hesitating whether to continue discussing the Qian family's marriage, Mrs. Hou from the Yongchang Marquis Mansion came to the house in person to propose marriage to her granddaughter for the eldest son of Chen Guogong's Mansion.

You can imagine how surprised Mrs. Liu was when Mrs. Yongchang Hou expressed her intention to come. She even thought that her second daughter-in-law, who was firmly opposed to the marriage, was bewitched.

How surprised I was then, how angry I am now.

Mrs. Liu stroked her heart, and after Mrs. Yongchang Hou left, she threw the tea cup in her hand angrily. Even Wei Hanzhang was angry for a while.

I didn't raise it under the knees, and I couldn't talk about how many ancestors. Now I only think that the granddaughter who is raised in a foreign ancestor's house is about eight characters, otherwise how can I return to Beijing for a few months and make so many disputes.

 The marriage had more twists and turns, and that hibiscus face was lost in vain.

"Go, go to Jingya Hall and tell Jiang about this." Mrs. Liu ordered Aunt Wu behind her who was helping her get along. She said with disgust in her eyes, "I want her to choose a good day and take Jiuniang there. If you go to Puxian Temple to worship Buddha for a few days, it will bring bad luck to Jiuniang."

Isn’t it bad luck?

 Is it possible that the dignified daughter of the Marquis Mansion is really going to be killed?
