Yi Cheng took the letter and immediately arranged for a quick ride to the capital.

This day is the fourth day of December.

Xiao Yu and Gu Fei's wedding is only half a month away.

The post official received the letter and traveled three hundred miles a day. After seven days, he finally arrived in the capital.

The letter was delivered into the palace, and it was soon in the hands of Queen Zheng.

Empress Zheng was so angry after reading the letter that she grabbed the letter and took a chariot to Qianqing Palace.

The emperor was reviewing the papers. When he heard that Empress Zheng wanted to see her, he raised his hand and said, "Let her come in."

Empress Zheng came in, bowed, and said aggrievedly: "This Prince Qi's palace is so disrespectful of my concubines that they dare not to accept Yi's order!"

Then he handed over Eunuch Liu's letter.

The eunuch took it and presented it to the emperor. The emperor read the letter with a sullen face, his face becoming even more ugly.

This Prince Qi's palace is really bold, and he didn't even accept Yi's order.

Empress Zheng was full of grievances and said, "Your Majesty, you must make the decision for me."

The emperor glanced at Empress Zheng dissatisfied. He had known that Xiao Yu had fallen in love with a peasant girl, so why would he bother to marry her.

It makes him look rather petty.

It's all the Queen's bad idea!

Empress Zheng only felt the emperor's eyes were cold, and she quickly lowered her head, "I leave you, my concubine."

After Empress Zheng left, the emperor said to a eunuch in the corner: "Go and get the information sent by the spies from Prince Qi's Zhu Yiwei recently."

He still felt that something was wrong. Could it be that King Qi had an informant in the palace and knew that he was going to marry him, so he took the initiative?

If King Qi dares to bury his spy in the palace, he will try his best to kill King Qi!

The eunuch left quietly, and soon brought a pamphlet over.

These are all the daily routines of Prince Qi's Mansion compiled by Zhu Yiwei, and the emperor usually doesn't bother to look at them.

If there are important matters, Zhu Yiwei will report them separately. .

The emperor flipped through it, and it was clearly written on it that the marriage was arranged for Xiao Yu on November 20th, and more than ten carriages came out of the palace early in the morning.

The person chosen was a farmer whose surname was Gu, who fled famine in West Qin County. His family had a daughter who was born with natural beauty. During the Lotus Festival in June, the girl appeared and attracted a crowd of spectators. The situation got out of hand. Prince Xiao Yu rushed into the crowd to save her. The woman left.

The emperor thought for a moment after reading it. November 20th should be the day when Eunuch Xu returned to Beijing.

He remembered that he told the queen about the marriage at night.

This shows that the marriage was not decided upon by Prince Qi's Mansion after receiving the news, but that it had been planned for a long time.

After all, there are still a lot of processes to go through before finalizing the decision.

So it shouldn't be someone who tipped off the King of Qi.

Also, this prince is so obsessed with beauty that he wants to marry a peasant girl as his concubine, and Prince Qi actually agrees. It seems that he thinks highly of Prince Qi's palace.

The father and son, one loves wine and the other loves beauty, there is nothing to worry about.

However, the prince of Qi dared not accept Yi's order, which slapped the queen in the face, which was also a slap in the face of him, the emperor.

Then Miss Zheng has been sent to Ping'an City. She is also a queen in name, so we can't let her come back, right?

The emperor snorted coldly and threw the note away, "Eunuch Xu, go to the Queen's Palace and pass on my oral instructions. Just tell her what I said and ask her to draft another edict."

"Isn't the prince of Qi's eldest son going to get married on the 19th day of the twelfth lunar month? He is ordered to marry Zheng's daughter as the eldest son's royal concubine."

"Now that we have decided on the daughter of the Gu family, just accept her as a concubine."

"Wouldn't it be a loss of royal decency to marry a peasant girl as a royal concubine?"
