Fortunate Young Gentleman

Chapter 521: A brilliant plan

Tang Jing was dead, so naturally he could not become a consort, so the marriage, which Chen Huangcai announced just a few days ago, was annulled.

However, Zhao Man's troubles were not over yet. As a princess, she was already quite old and it was time for her to get married. Emperor Chen had started looking for the next consort for her in the past two days.

She looked at Tangning, frowned and said, "What should I do? If this continues, there will be no end..."

Tangning pinched her nose and comforted her, "Don't worry, there's still me..."

She doesn't know her prestige at all now. The eldest son of the Tang family and the prince of Chu State, one was killed by him, and the other was killed by her. She is already famous. Which wealthy family in Beijing dares to marry her?

Even ordinary people have to measure their fortune and bad luck when getting married, not to mention those rich and powerful families, who regard these as more important than anything else.

To put it bluntly, even if someone dared to agree, Tang Ning was quite free and in a depressed mood right now. She wouldn't mind playing with them and helping Zhao Man build up her reputation as a good husband.

Although this sounds a bit mean, and it feels like he is cursing himself, but a negative is a good thing, he is a broom star, why is he afraid of such a curse?

In the royal study room in the palace, Emperor Chen looked at the person below and asked, "How have you considered the matter that I discussed with you yesterday?"

An old man below looked embarrassed and said, "Your Majesty, I would like to thank you for your kindness to the Zhang family, but..."

Zhongshu Ling was considered a high-ranking official in the court, and he wanted to marry the princess to an heir of Zhongshu Ling's family. His status was suitable. Zhang's eldest son had not yet been married, so he had this idea in his mind. When he saw Zhongshu Ling's face showing off, he tried to shirk the responsibility. Chen Huang frowned and said, "Just what?"

Zhongshu Ling said: "It's just that Jing'er and I have a marriage contract for a long time. If we betray the promise and ruin the Zhang family's reputation, it will be a trivial matter. If we bring the royal family into disgrace, I will not hesitate to die..."

At this point, his tone suddenly changed, he looked to the other side and said, "I remember that Zhao Shizhong's son seems to be about the same age as the princess, and he is not yet married..."

Zhongshu ordered the disaster to be diverted to the east. Although Zhao Shizhong didn't show anything on his face, he had already scolded him bloody in his heart.

Who doesn’t know that Princess Pingyang is Kefu’s destiny, and whoever marries whomever will be unlucky? Zhongshu Ling’s grandson is afraid of her, so shouldn’t the Zhao family be afraid of her? The Zhao family has a single inheritance. If a son dies like the Tang family, they will be replaced. No one has a chance...

Zhao Shi cursed Zhongshu Ling in the center, but still had a smile on his face and said: "Back to Your Majesty, Mr. Zhang doesn't know something. A wandering Taoist priest once told Zhong'er's fortune and said that he would not get married in two years. , otherwise the rest of your life will be full of disasters, loss of fortune and life, I dare not delay the princess..."

It is better to start a family two years later than not to have a family at all. As long as you can avoid this time, other things will not be a big problem.

Zhongshu ordered: "Shizhong Zhao is really saying that the words of the wandering Taoist priest cannot be believed..."

Not to be outdone, Shizhong Zhao said, "How come I haven't heard that Mr. Zhang's grandson is engaged to someone else?"

Zhongshu Ling glanced at him and said, "This is a matter of my Zhang family. Isn't it strange that Mr. Zhao doesn't know about it?"

Seeing the two people who were unwilling to show weakness and betrayed each other, Emperor Chen looked gloomy and said, "Shut up!"

When the two heard this, their bodies trembled and they immediately closed their mouths.

Chen Huang looked at the two of them, his face as dark as water. How could he not see that the two people were attacking each other. The fundamental reason was that none of them wanted to marry the princess. When did the royal princess fall to the point where she could not marry? ?

This is an insult to the royal dignity!

He stood up and was about to speak when a eunuch suddenly ran in and said in panic: "Your Majesty, it's not good. The Queen Mother suddenly fell seriously ill and fell into a coma..."

Emperor Chen's expression changed drastically, and he no longer cared about Zhongshu Ling and the attendants. He quickly walked out of the palace. As he walked, he said, "Let all the imperial doctors come to Yangshen Temple!"

Tangning and Xiaoxiao were playing flying chess in the pavilion. They were originally playing with Zhao Man, but she was suddenly called into the palace just now. The young eunuch who delivered the order said that there seemed to be something wrong with the Queen Mother's health.

Tang Ning had entered the palace countless times, but had only met two empresses in the harem. She had only heard about the empress dowager a few times.

The current Queen Mother of Chen State is Emperor Chen's biological mother. It is said that she is not in good health and has been living in the palace. Even many ministers in the court have never seen her true appearance.

Zhao Man seemed to be quite nervous about the imperial grandmother and hurriedly entered the palace. Now she didn't know what the situation was in the palace.

In the Royal Palace, inside the Temple of Yang.

Emperor Chen looked at Chen Taiyi's medical order and said in a deep voice: "How is the Queen Mother's condition?"

Dr. Chen quickly said: "Your Majesty, I have administered acupuncture to stabilize the Queen Mother's condition. The Queen Mother needs to rest now, and she will probably wake up tomorrow morning."

Emperor Chen felt relieved and asked: "The Queen Mother's condition has always been stable. Why did she suddenly become ill this time?"

Doctor Chen said cautiously: "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother is old and her health is not as good as before..."

"I don't want to hear these words from you." Emperor Chen looked at him and asked, "Just tell me directly, is there any other way to stabilize the Queen Mother's condition?"

Dr. Chen Ling thought for a moment and said, "If Divine Doctor Sun were in the capital, he might be able to do something about it, but he travels all over the world and is hard to find. I can only do my best..."

Zhao Man hurried over and asked, "Father, what's wrong with the emperor's grandmother?"

Emperor Chen breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's nothing serious anymore."

Zhao Man also felt relieved and said, "That's good..."

"The Queen Mother is a person with great fortune and longevity, nothing will happen." Emperor Chen looked at her and suddenly said, "Man'er, you are already at the age of marriage, and the Queen Mother's condition is not stable. I want to find a young man in the capital, so that you can get married as soon as possible, so as to cheer for the Queen Mother. What do you think?"

Zhao Man sighed and said, "Brother Tang Jing is dead. They all say that I am destined to be a husband killer. If something bad happens again, it will not be a good time, but a shortening of the life of the Royal Grandmother..."

She looked up at Emperor Chen and said, "I am willing to become a monk and practice Taoism for three years with my hair untied, and burn incense and pray for the Royal Grandmother. What do you think, father?"

Emperor Chen looked at her and said, "Won't this delay your marriage?"

Zhao Man smiled and said, "My son's marriage is nothing. As long as the Royal Grandmother's health can be cured, "I am willing to do anything for you."

Emperor Chen looked at her and said with relief: "Man'er has grown up."

Zhao Man looked at Emperor Chen and said: "People always have to grow up..."

...

Tang Ning looked at Zhao Man and said in surprise: "What, you want to become a monk?"

"Only three years..." Zhao Man looked at him and said: "Didn't you say that at most three years, we will leave the capital? What's more, in this way, in these three years, my father will not randomly assign me a son-in-law, and we won't have so many troubles..."

Tang Ning looked at her in surprise. He didn't expect that she could come up with such a way to escape Emperor Chen's forced marriage. It seems that girls change a lot when they grow up. It's not just their figure and face that change, but also their minds...

Zhao Man looked at him proudly and asked: "How about it, am I smart?"

Tang Ning pinched her face and said: "You are really a clever little ghost..."

Bang!

Outside the Moon Gate, Xiao Jue fell to the ground with a jar of good wine in his hand. His eyes were wide open, and he looked at them in shock, and said in a trembling voice: "You, you..." [First published in this chapter. Love. You. Voice. Novel Network, please remember the URL】
