Chapter 587 Unwilling
Seeing her daughter sad, Princess Rong was also sad and cried together with her little daughter.
"Daughter, this is fate. God's will is like this, so just accept your fate." Princess Rong persuaded her with red eyes.
Rong Wu pushed her mother away and cried, "Why should I accept my fate? My life shouldn't be like this... Even a princess from the Japanese country despised a man, but the emperor wanted to give it to me, wuwu, I won't marry , I don’t want to marry such a man.”
"Shut up." Princess Rong became anxious when she heard that she said she would not marry, "Who dares to disobey the emperor's decree?"
Then, seeing that her daughter was really sad, she held her daughter in her arms again and said with heartbreak, "My dear daughter, we cannot disobey the emperor's decree. Disobeying the emperor's decree will lead to beheading. It is a serious crime to annihilate the nine tribes. We cannot ignore the lives of hundreds of people in the palace.”
"Besides, you have also seen Prince Ping. Although he is not as good-looking as Chu Jingqi, his appearance is not bad. Although his status is not as high as Chu Jingqi's in the court, his status is much higher than that of Chu Jingqi. He But when the emperor’s younger brother, Chu Jingqi, saw him, he had to bow and call him “Prince Ping.”
"In the future, when you marry Prince Ping, as soon as you enter Prince Ping's palace, you will be the mistress of the palace, Princess Ping. Everything in the palace is yours to have the final say. In the entire Dasheng, except for the Queen Mother and the Empress, You are the most noble. Anyone who sees you must salute and treat you as a princess.”
"Look, the second princess is not so famous. She is so famous because she married the late emperor's brother and opened a palace. Otherwise...how could your mother and concubine look down upon her when I met her?" br>
"What's so good about the Chu family? Even if Chu Jingqi and his son are famous people in front of the emperor, their status cannot be compared to that of the emperor's biological brother."
"Also, dear daughter, think about it, how can the Chu family be as good as Prince Ping's Palace? In addition to the Zhuo family who is doted on by Chu Xuanyu, the Chu family also has an unreasonable Mrs. Chu who can't handle things well. Then The old Qian woman is not a good person. Once you enter the Chu family, you will be bullied to death by them for your weak temper.”
"That Zhuo family, Chu Jingqi's mother, that is Chu Xuanyu's treasure. If you enter the Chu family's gate, then you have to live on your knees in front of her. Otherwise, if you disrespect your mother-in-law in the slightest, Chu Xuanyu will divorce you. .”
Princess Rong frightened and coaxed Rong Wu so much.
But when Rong Wu came back to his senses, he felt something was wrong.
"Mother and concubine, although Prince An dotes on Princess An, he will not mistreat his daughter-in-law, right?" Her mother and concubine must have coaxed her into living on her knees.
No matter how you look at it, Princess Anjun is not someone who knows how to tease her daughter-in-law.
Rong Wu said with tears in her eyes, "Concubine, you don't need to persuade me. Beat me to death. I don't want to marry Prince Ping."
"That Chu Yu can live a prosperous life in the Chu family, with ease, and can play the harp and harp in harmony with Chu Jingqi, so I can do it too."
"I have long inquired about the Chu family. I heard that Princess Anjun planned to hand over all the family's middle income to Chu Yu to take care of after the Lantern Festival. From now on, Chu Yu will be a serious sect of the Chu family. Wife.”
"Also, Mrs. Chu's claws have been cut off by Chu Xuanyu a long time ago. She is living as a cat in Prince Anjun's Mansion."
The current Anjun Prince's Mansion was earned by Chu Xuanyu and his son through their military exploits. The ancestors of the Chu family had nothing to do with it. If Mrs. Chu didn't want to live a passive life, she would still dare to rely on her old age and bully Princess Anjun arrogantly. Then the Chu family The old man can come forward and divorce her.
"I once heard the servants of Prince Anjun's mansion gossiping when they went shopping on the street. They said that Chu Yu and Princess Anjun were the most leisurely in the mansion. In the morning, they didn't have to greet anyone or do anything about morning and dusk. Mr. Chu He lives with Chu Jinglan, the second wife, in the west courtyard of Anjun Prince's Mansion. On weekdays, except for people celebrating the New Year, they don't go to the east courtyard. "
"Princess Anjun only pays for the daily expenses of the west courtyard. She doesn't go to the west courtyard on weekdays. Only Chu Yu and Princess Anjun's mother-in-law live in the east courtyard. I heard she is very happy."
"Oh, also, Princess Anjun specially built a large and beautiful flower house for Chu Yu. I heard that it cost tens of thousands of taels of silver. The surrounding walls and tiles on the roof are all made of glazed glass. .”
As Rong Wu talked, there were no tears in his eyes, but they were filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred.
"If I were Princess Anjun's daughter-in-law, how happy I would be, woo woo... It's all Chu Yu's fault, why would she steal my happiness? I like Chu Jingqi and have for many years, mother concubine... woo woo …”
"It's all my fault, Concubine Mother. Oh my, it's all my fault that you didn't go to the Chu family to propose marriage earlier and let that Chu Yu get the first step. From now on, how difficult will your daughter's life be?"
"Princess Zhengna said that Prince Ping is just a child. Seeing that Prince Ping is so thin, I don't know...if he is physically sick. If so...then my daughter must not be a widow for the rest of her life?"
Thinking of this, Rong Wu felt even more sad.
Princess Rong patted her on the back and sighed, "Hey, the emperor has issued an imperial edict. Even if Prince Ping is ill, he still has to marry him. Although Prince Rong has some status in the court, he does not dare to violate the emperor's edict."
"Daughter, just accept this fate for our Rong family."
Princess Rong was also in tears and kept shedding tears.
If Prince Ping really fails, her daughter will have to remain a widow for the rest of her life. That life... will not be easy.
But, what can be done.
You can't disobey the imperial edict for the sake of your daughter, right?
The Rong family cannot bear the consequences.
Princess Rong sighed deeply again.
Although she loved her daughter and wanted her to find a good man and live a happy and sweet life, she couldn't roast the entire Prince Rong's palace on the fire just for her daughter. She loves her daughter, but she loves her son even more.
She couldn't cheat her son for the sake of her daughter's life, let alone Prince Rong's house. Otherwise, after she died, she wouldn't have the shame to meet the ancestors of the Rong family.
Rong Wu cried for a while, and when she saw that her parents would not change their mind and even wanted her to marry Prince Ping even if they wanted her to die, she became disheartened and heartbroken.
She would rather be a concubine for Chu Jingqi than a princess for Prince Ping. Why should a man whom Princess Zheng Na disdains be given to her? She doesn't want that man, doesn't want to marry him, and doesn't want to live with him. .
I want to marry her unless she dies.
Rong Wu's eyes were filled with unyielding and unwillingness.
……
After Xia Ziying's true identity was revealed, Xia Zihan came back from the palace, feeling uneasy all the time.
She never expected that Princess Zhengna, who had been targeting her from the beginning, would be Xia Ziying.
No wonder, on the way from Japan, Xia Ziying tried every means to get close to Chu Jingqi and wanted to snatch Chu Jingqi away from her.
If the emperor's marriage was delayed, Xia Ziying would probably ask the emperor to marry her to Chu Jingqi as the princess, right?
I remember that after the emperor granted Chu Jingqi a marriage, Princess Zhengna went to the palace to make trouble. However, the emperor did not change his mind. Instead, the emperor granted Princess Zhengna a marriage to Prince Ping.
Xia Ziying's mind has been so mature since she was a child that it's shocking. How could she fall in love with Prince Ping, who is three years younger than her and looks only eleven or twelve years old?
Presumably, she hated Prince Ping very much.
He must also hate her very much.
Otherwise, she would not have tried to harm her and given her the gold bracelet.
Ah, by the way, a gold bracelet?
The gold bracelet was still on Xia Ziying's wrist. No, she had to take it back and destroy it. There were still poisonous insects hidden in it. She must not let it get out, otherwise... it would harm others.
When Xia Zihan thought of this, a layer of cold sweat broke out on his back.
She hurriedly called Chu Fei and told her, "Go to the palace gate, find Ma Bao, and tell him to go in quickly and send a message to the prince, asking him to destroy the gold bracelet on Xia Ziying's wrist. Remember, Don’t let the prince touch it with your hands.”
If you touch it with your hands, it's probably fine. Chu Jingqi carries a sachet that scares the bugs. Even if the bugs come out of the bracelet, they won't dare to enter Chu Jingqi's body.
But, that kind of weird thing is better just in case.
When Chu Fei saw cold sweat breaking out on her master's anxious forehead, she remembered that there seemed to be a poisonous insect in the gold bracelet.
This is a big deal and cannot be delayed.
Chu Fei resigned, rode on his horse, and hurried to the entrance of the palace.
Because of Xia Zihan's accident, the marriages of Ma Bao and others were delayed, but none of Ma Bao and others complained. They just hoped that the matter would end soon so that they could marry their wives back in glory.
Seeing that this matter was coming to an end, Chu Fei brought this news to Ma Bao. Without saying anything, Ma Bao wrote a letter and handed it to a guard guarding the palace gate whom he knew, "Send it to my house." Your Majesty, this is the letter from our eldest concubine..."
In the evening, when Chu Jingqi came back, she told Xia Zihan, "Xia Ziying will be hanged tomorrow morning, and other Japanese people will be executed at Caishikou at three quarters noon..."
The other Japanese people were all the servants who stayed behind as dowry for Princess Zhengna before Prince Zhengtian left.
Prince Zhengtian left the capital after Princess Zhengna got married. Also leaving with him was Princess Ximin of Dasheng, the emperor's half-sister.
Princess Ximin was born to a maid of the late emperor. After the maid gave birth to her daughter, she was named a concubine by the late emperor. Unfortunately, not long after, the concubine was killed by Concubine Lu, leaving Princess Ximin. A person lives a difficult life in the palace.
Princess Ximin basically has no sense of presence in the palace. If the Japanese country had not proposed that the two countries reconcile and make peace with each other this time, the emperor investigated the heirs left by the late emperor, and then discovered Princess Ximin. Otherwise, the emperor would have I can't even think of her.
The emperor gave Princess Ximin to Prince Zhengtian, and the couple went to Japan.
When Prince Masada left, he took Princess Ximin with him.
