Chapter 561
Chapter 561
Jiang Xizhen was one of the best in the capital city in terms of background, appearance and talents, and there was an endless stream of people coming to propose marriage.The Jiang family had never agreed and wanted Jiang Xizhen to enter the eighth prince's residence.
Concubine Pan is choosing a concubine for the eighth prince. Even if Jiang Xizhen cannot become the eighth prince's concubine, she can still get a concubine.
When the eighth prince takes over, he will be the imperial concubine.
Today, Jiang Xizhen offered to become Prince Rui's concubine. There would be no harm in marrying her, and the key point was that it would also drive a wedge between the Pan family and the Jiang family.So after Jiang Xizhen took the initiative to stand up, everyone thought that she would definitely enter Prince Rui's Mansion.
The only possibility is that she dies.
But no one expected that Xiao Che refused.
Xiao Che not only refused, but also said righteously that he did not know her and that they had never met each other when they were at Jiang's house.Such a decisive and straightforward refusal was enough to show that Xiao Che had no interest in Jiang Xizhen at all.
"The father is the emperor, the mother is the queen, and the son's wife is the Princess of Chu. In other words, the son is also the consort.
The prince-in-law is not allowed to take concubines. The son-in-law will only have one wife in his life. I hope my father and mother will understand. "
Xiao Che held Yun Shang's hand, his eyes full of tenderness.
At first, because of his life experience and poisoning, he never thought about getting married and having children. He was lucky to meet her unexpectedly.
She is enough for this life.
Xiao Che's rejection of Jiang Xizhen was unexpected enough, but he also said that he would never take a concubine in his life, which was really shocking.
And what he told the emperor and empress was that he understood, rather than hoping that they would agree.In other words, the matter has been decided and no one else’s consent is needed.
For a moment, everyone's eyes fell on Yun Shang. What charm did she have that would make Xiao Che never take a concubine in his life.
You must know that now is the best time for Xiao Che to consolidate his position in the court. Marriage is a good way. He also has two concubines, which can at least win over two families.
Did he just give up?
Many men present expressed disdain for this, being deceived by beauty and not being able to achieve great things.
Women are just decorations that can be changed at any time. If it can benefit themselves, they will be exchanged and sacrificed without blinking an eye. I really can't understand Xiao Che.
The women present looked at Yun Shang with envy. This princess from Da Chu was so lucky.
Xiao Che was a high-ranking prince, so how could he not take a concubine for her sake?
Which woman doesn’t want to be a man’s exclusive favorite?It happened that the concubines in the house came in one room after another, and they had to pretend to be generous, otherwise they would be overwhelmed by the gossip and couldn't hold their heads up.
You can even be divorced on this basis.
Yun Shang became the most envied object, and Jiang Xizhen became the biggest joke.
What kind of love is it? Prince Rui said it, but he has never met or recognized her. Do you really think that Prince Rui will marry her if she wants to marry her?
it is ridiculous.
The color on Jiang Xizhen's face immediately drained away. She never expected that Xiao Che would reject her. Why?
In what way is she worse than Princess Rui?
Princess Rui is a princess on the surface, but she is the princess of Da Chu. The relationship between Da Chu and the Southern Kingdom is very average, so she cannot help Xiao Che at all.She was different. She was born into the Jiang family and was their valued daughter.
Winning her is equivalent to winning over the Jiang family.
She took the initiative so much, how could he have the heart to refuse?
Xiao Che refused, very simply, and even more cruelly.
After speaking to the emperor and empress, Xiao Che looked in the direction of Concubine Pan and Concubine Li with cold eyes, "If anyone doesn't understand what I said, you can continue to send people off to Prince Rui's Mansion.
But this king is not as good-tempered as the princess.
If you are tired of living and want to die, you can give it a try. "
After Xiao Che came back, he had a weak foundation. Many people thought he was easy to bully, but no one who faced him ended well.
In the two months before he came back, there were countless assassinations and frame-ups, both overt and covert, and all those people died.
It was after he married Yun Shang that he changed little by little.No, it's not a change, it's that he went to Lingnan very quickly and hasn't been to the capital in the past few months, making people forget what happened when he first came back.
At this moment, I remembered everything, and felt a chill in my heart.
Concubine Pan and Concubine Li looked ugly. They were concubines, so how could they lose face when they were threatened like this?
They all looked at the emperor, wanting him to make the decision.The emperor's face didn't look good either. He valued his son very much, but what his son said and did today was really thoughtless.
The emperor has many women. In his opinion, it is precisely because men are strong enough that there are many women.
It is normal for a strong man and hero to be admired by many women.
What does it mean to never take a concubine in this life?
And for one woman, he even threatened his two concubines.
The emperor was about to get angry and reprimand, but the queen spoke first: "Ache is right, Princess Rui is a princess, and she is not someone who can be bullied by cats or dogs. I feel that it is already difficult to meet someone you really like, so I No one else is needed.
Since Ah Che doesn't want to take a concubine, I agree. "
After saying that, he turned to look at Concubine Pan and Concubine Li who had stiff expressions over there, "I hope the two sisters will remember their identities so that they won't have to worry about the prince's marriage."
There is a queen in the palace, so naturally the queen takes care of these things.
The Queen used to be too lazy to care. Whoever wanted to marry just told her and agreed.
But that doesn't mean other people have this right.
Moreover, these words were also a threat to Concubine Pan. The eighth prince had not yet married a wife. Whoever he wanted to marry still had to see whether the queen agreed.
If the Queen were to suggest marriage to the Eighth Prince at will, the Eighth Prince would have no choice but to marry her.
A trace of hatred flashed in Concubine Pan's eyes. If she hadn't entered the palace two years later, the queen could only come from the Pan family. How could this woman be allowed to sit on the throne of the queen?
"Your Majesty, my concubine——"
Concubine Pan planned to let the emperor make the decision, but she was interrupted by the queen as soon as she opened her mouth.
"Your Majesty, you promised me that you would not interfere in the affairs of Ache's house."
When Concubine Zhao made a fuss about Yunshang's absence in the palace, the queen went to see the emperor.It was said that Concubine Zhao wanted to send people to Prince Rui's Mansion to plot against the Prince's Mansion, so that the emperor would stop listening to other people's words and seduce people into Prince Rui's Mansion.
The matter of Xiao Che's concubine was left to her as the queen mother, and the emperor agreed.
When Concubine Li and Concubine Pan spoke before, the queen wanted to say something because Yun Shang didn't speak for the time being.
The time is just right at this moment to completely eliminate this matter, lest there are always people who are blind and want to seduce people in Prince Rui's Mansion.
The emperor had indeed promised the queen this, so he could only nod.
The emperor and the empress agreed that Xiao Che would not take concubines, and others naturally did not dare to say anything. Some who had planned to send their daughters to win over Xiao Che also gave up this idea.Today is the end of future troubles. From now on, no one will send someone away to Prince Rui's Mansion without opening their eyes.
