After rebirth, the scumbag prince only wants to pamper his wife every day
Chapter 32: Can't Let It Go
Emperor Zhaoyuan certainly knew Lin Qingran.
That was the darling of Concubine Hui and Old Madam Qi, the darling who was raised in their hands.
Over the years, Lin Qingran's temperament has become more and more erratic and domineering.
Just as He Qingchen said, she was too close to the fourth brother, and there was even a rumor that the girl from the Lin family had privately said that she would not marry anyone but the fourth brother and a member of the royal family.
This is really unpleasant.
As an emperor, Emperor Zhaoyuan had his own considerations on the marriage of princes and princesses.
Lin Huaian, as a mere third place scholar, managed to get on board the big ship of Dingyuan Marquis Mansion in a very short time. In just over ten years, he was promoted to the position of Vice Minister of Rites and even had his eyes on the position of Minister of Rites.
How much did Lin Huaian do here, and what role did the Qi family play?
Emperor Zhao Yuan had some idea of the situation.
Over the years, Concubine Hui has been busy trying to bring together the Fourth Prince and the daughter of the Lin family. Naturally, she also wants to bring the Lin family and Qi completely under the Fourth Prince's command.
Of course, this is also what the Qi family meant.
There is no suitable woman in the Qi family's direct branch, and the relationship between the side branches and the Qi family's direct branch is extremely bad. Instead of supporting those people in the side branches, it is better to support his niece, the daughter of another biological sister.
In this way, the three siblings of the Qi family were completely tied together.
Because the fourth child was still young, Emperor Zhao Yuan never took their little thoughts seriously.
When he was choosing a concubine for He Qingchen, he saw Lin Qingran's name on the list and immediately thought of a way to separate the Lin family and the Qi family.
That is to marry the girl of the Lin family to the Prince of Yan's Mansion.
Let He Qingchen marry the daughter of the Lin family.
By then, as long as Lin Huaian is smart enough, he will be able to figure out his intentions and make the right choice, standing on the side of his son-in-law instead of on the side of the fourth brother, that is, his nephew.
He Qingchen had no intention of competing for the throne, but his elder brother He Chengjue was ambitious.
Over the years, He Qingchen has been trying hard to please the Queen and He Chengjue, hoping to get some cheap favoritism from them. To this end, he has tried hard to do things that he doesn't really want to do.
The suppression of bandits in Gongzhou is one of them.
Now that the Lin family has married into the Prince of Yan’s Palace, they can no longer rely on anyone.
As for He Qingchen, it would be a pleasant surprise if he could face reality, live a good life and stop getting involved in these things.
After this incident, He Chengjue will definitely not trust He Qingchen so much anymore.
Emperor Zhaoyuan had a good plan.
Only after he had stirred up the muddy water in the pond could he continue to fish.
He looked at the woman who had been lowering her head since entering the palace, and said with a slightly restrained expression: "You, raise your head, let me see."
Shen Guidi raised his head slowly.
When Emperor Zhao Yuan saw her appearance clearly, a hint of doubt flashed through his mind, as if he had seen her somewhere before.
He suppressed the doubts in his heart and stared at her solemnly: "Who are you? What is going on?"
at this time.
Shen Guidi was like a frightened rabbit, with red eyes, stammering, and unable to speak for a long time.
Although He Qingchen knew that this was fake, his heart still ached when he saw the moisture in her eyes that she was holding back.
He took a deep breath and took the initiative to say, "Father, her name is Shen Guidi. She is a concubine's daughter raised by Lord Lin in the countryside. She was brought back last year."
He Qingchen hesitated for a moment, but still said those two words.
After hearing this, Emperor Zhaoyuan's pupils trembled slightly.
He looked at Shen Guidi more carefully.
Now, he finally understood why he felt she looked familiar.
Because he knew her mother.
He suppressed the trembling in his heart, his expression eased a little, and his eyes moved away from her and fell on He Qingchen, and asked in a low voice: "You, keep talking, what is going on?"
He Qingchen didn't notice the abnormality of Emperor Zhaoyuan, nodded and continued: "Father, you know what my son was like at that time. The imperial physician couldn't do anything. If you marry me, you will undoubtedly be prepared to be buried with me at any time.
Noble ladies, who would be willing to marry someone like me who could die at any time?"
He Qingchen smiled self-deprecatingly.
Emperor Zhao Yuan's expression became increasingly gloomy, and he said indifferently, "Continue."
He Qingchen smiled faintly, as if he didn't mind throwing his face on the ground and tearing it wantonly, his tone was unprecedentedly sad and humiliating: "Father, Miss Lin ran away the day before the wedding."
The queen's legitimate son, a prince of the first rank.
He married a mere daughter of a minister, but was still despised. The other party didn't care and just ran away from the marriage!
It's so ridiculous!
Zhou Chonghai had not come with Emperor Zhaoyuan just now. He heard these words as soon as he entered the hall.
He was stunned!
Run away from marriage?
Who is this Princess Yan in front of me?
Zhou Chonghai glanced at the woman kneeling on the ground in surprise, but couldn't see her face clearly.
He lowered his eyes and didn't dare to think too much.
He could only shrink his neck, try not to make any sound, and slowly move back behind Emperor Zhao Yuan.
Emperor Zhaoyuan glanced at him indifferently.
He Qingchen seemed to be trying hard to suppress the anger in his heart, and continued to state his grievances: "Miss Lin has been arrogant since she was a child, and some people have said that she will marry into the royal family sooner or later.
But it certainly won't be a rude and impolite warrior like me, nor will it be an unconscious living dead.
Therefore, she took the risk and escaped under the pretext of buying rouge.
After searching everywhere for her without success, the Lin family decided to find a concubine's daughter who was brought back from the countryside last year and raised in a side courtyard to marry her off.
However, Father, among the candidates given by the Imperial Observatory, there are five whose birthdays match yours.
Miss Lin Er is just one of them.
Even if she didn't want to marry my son, she could have raised the issue, or asked Concubine Hui and Old Madam Qi to help.
I believe that you are not the kind of king who would force others to do things against their will.
There was room for maneuver in this matter, but she did nothing. Instead, she ran away the day before the wedding!
The Lin family is using a concubine's daughter as a substitute for marriage, and I, as your son, don't mind it.
But I cannot help but care about it. They married this concubine's daughter to me without knowing whether her birthday matched mine. The Lin family is hoping for my death!
Father, even ants try to survive.
I am a living person, your son. How could my last ray of life be taken away by them like this?
They bully me like this, and have no respect for the royal family at all. It is clear that they don't take me, you, and our entire Northern Zhao royal family seriously. How can I tolerate this?"
The more He Qingchen spoke, the more excited he became.
When Zhou Chonghai heard this, he was completely stunned.
what is this?
A concubine's daughter was married off to bring good luck to a first-rank prince, openly defying the imperial decree and challenging the royal majesty?
Is Minister Lin out of his mind?
