Two days later, someone from the harem sent a message to ask Chu Chen to come into the palace.
"Is your marriage going to be settled today?" Mu Mu helped Chu Chen comb his hair, took the jade hairpin that Chu Chen bought last time, and pinned it on the hair crown for him, and Mu Mu himself also pinned another identical jade hairpin.
"I'm afraid it's not that easy." Chu Chen said.
When the crown prince sent someone to send the list to Chu Chen, he brought a message. If there is any dissatisfaction, you can bring it up.
Chu Chen was naturally dissatisfied, but he was not stupid enough to express his dissatisfaction to the prince.
Anyone with a discerning eye could tell at a glance that the prince was clearly choosing a concubine for him, but in fact he was using Chu Chen's marriage to win over the courtiers.No matter who Chu Chen chooses to marry, the family and relationship network behind the other party will indirectly become the prince's wings.
"I guess I'm not the only one who is dissatisfied with this list." Chu Chen said to Mu Mu: "Father has already begun to notice the relationship between our brothers because of the matter of the fourth brother's garrison last time. The prince is too anxious to do this. Even the problem that you and I can see, the emperor will not turn a blind eye." Chu Chen even suspected that asking the queen to arrange a marriage for him might be the emperor's temptation.
The old fox is narrow-minded and suspicious. Behind the superficial concern, he does not know how many calculations are hidden.
"Then what are your plans for today?" Mu Mu asked him.
"Responsiveness." Chu Chen smiled half-truthfully, "Don't worry, this king will definitely marry a reasonable concubine, so as not to hurt you in the future."
Chu Chen looked calm and composed on the surface, but he was somewhat uneasy in his heart. If the emperor tabooed his relationship with the crown prince, he might make things difficult for him.After all, Chu Chen was never appreciated by the emperor, and it was just a whim to give him a good face occasionally. When it came to the critical point, the emperor probably would not feel sorry for Chu Chen.
At the gate of the palace, Mu Mu was still waiting outside, and the servant who came to deliver the message took Chu Chen straight to Chengxiang Palace.
"My father told me, why don't you go to the imperial study?" Chu Chen asked.
"Your Highness, it is your empress who passed on you." The servant said hurriedly.
Chu Chen was startled when he heard the words, always felt that something was a little strange, why would the queen summon him into the palace alone?This... seems to be against the rules, right?Before he could think too much, the voice of the Fifth Prince came from behind him.Chu Chen thought to himself, why did the queen also summon the five princes into the palace?
"Sixth brother, I haven't seen you for a long time. Has the injury on your leg healed?" The fifth prince asked.
"Thank you, Fifth Brother, for your concern. Walking is no longer a serious problem." Chu Chen said hastily.
The fifth prince nodded and said: "That's good, you can go in with me."
Chu Chen didn't have time to think about it, and was carried into Chengxiang Palace by the fifth prince.
When the two entered the front hall of Chengxiang Palace, they saw the elegant and luxurious imperial concubine sitting on the main seat, and next to them were Concubine Rong and the only male concubine in the palace—Concubine Ning.
Chu Chen suddenly realized that this Chengxiang Palace was not the empress' residence, but the imperial concubine lived in it.As an adult prince, he can't walk around in the harem on weekdays, the only one he is familiar with is Concubine Rong's Mingyue Residence, so he didn't realize it just now.
"I called the two of you here today because there is an important matter to discuss." The imperial concubine looked at Chu Chen and the fifth prince with a smile on her face, and said, "In order to have a witness, I personally ordered someone to arrest the sixth prince. The mother concubine and the only male concubine in the harem have been invited here, so that no one will be unhappy and go out to arrange the palace."
Chu Chen: ...
As soon as I opened my mouth, I felt yin and yang, and I always felt that something was wrong.
"Since His Highness was punished for self-examination, I have been blaming myself and restless. I only hope that I can solve His Majesty's worries and problems, so as to offset the mistakes made by His Highness." He didn't even bother to hide his hatred, and said coldly: "Now His Majesty is finally willing to trust and entrust the marriage affairs of the two highnesses to my palace, and I will definitely do my best to arrange a good marriage for the two highnesses. "
The imperial concubine raised her eyebrows and looked at Chu Chen, with a bit of satisfaction in her eyes.
Chu Chen's neck couldn't help but feel cold, and he had an ominous premonition.
He expected that the emperor would be dissatisfied with the queen's arrangement, and might even anger himself because of it, but he didn't expect that the emperor would directly hand over the matter to the noble concubine to decide.It is impossible for the emperor not to know the gap between Chu Chen and the noble concubine, and this move is tantamount to pushing Chu Chen into a pit of fire!
But after thinking about it, Chu Chen understood.
The fourth prince was imprisoned, and only the fifth prince, a useless son, was left under the imperial concubine's knees. He could no longer make any waves in the court.On the contrary, in order to plot against the fourth prince, the prince revealed both the cards of the second prince and Chu Chen at once. It is impossible for the emperor not to be afraid.
Therefore, selling Chu Chen to the noble concubine and taking advantage of the opportunity to suppress the prince can be said to kill two birds with one stone.
As for Chu Chen, he was just an insignificant abandoned son, no one cared whether he was dead or alive.
Chu Chen sighed, once again seeing the coldness of the royal family.
Outside the palace gate, Mu Mu kept his face sullen and didn't say a word.
I don't know if it's because of the connection with Zhu Si in Chu Chen's body, or because of other reasons, he has been feeling a little uneasy.
Not long after, a servant recognized Chongyang when he passed by in a hurry.
"You are in such a hurry to leave the palace, but what's the matter?" Chongyang asked.
"Your Majesty was worried about His Highness the Sixth Highness, so she secretly sent the slaves to the Prince's Mansion, and wanted to ask the Prince to rescue him, but the people in the Prince's Mansion said that he was not there, and he didn't know where he went." The servant said anxiously.
Mu Mu opened the curtain of the car and asked in a deep voice: "What's wrong with His Royal Highness?"
"You... who are you?" The servant suddenly saw Mu Mu, saw that he had an outstanding appearance and extraordinary temperament, but he was very strange, so he didn't dare to talk to him for a while, so Chong Yang hurriedly said: "It's someone His Highness trusts, you just say it's okay."
The servant heard the words and hurriedly said: "Tomorrow is the Empress's birthday, and Your Majesty took the Empress to offer incense and pray for blessings today. Unexpectedly, the Imperial Concubine Empress suddenly summoned His Highness the Sixth Prince into the palace at this time, saying that His Royal Highness will be married today... The empress is really disturbed, and she doesn't know who to ask for relief, after thinking about it for a while, she can only let the servant go to the Prince's mansion to try."
Concubine Rong has a sense of crisis. As soon as the concubine concubine summoned her, she felt that this matter was strange.It's a pity that she is helpless in the capital, and she can't even find anyone to ask for help.If it was not a last resort, she would not be so reckless as to send someone directly to the Prince's mansion to touch this nail.
Mu Mu frowned when he heard this, and said, "You go to the Prince's mansion, how did the servant answer?"
"The slave waited outside for half a stick of incense, and the servant said that the prince is not here, so I don't know where he went." The servant said.
Mu Mu's eyes froze, and after waiting for half a stick of incense, it meant that there were people in the house.
It seems that the prince already knew about this matter, and had already expected that the imperial concubine would do this, so he simply decided not to step into this muddy water.
"At the beginning Chu Chen offended the imperial concubine because of him, but now that the imperial concubine is angry, he hides completely." Mu Mu said coldly.
Chongyang and the servant glanced at each other, thinking that this person actually called His Highness the Sixth Prince's name directly, and was so disrespectful to the prince inside and outside the words, it was really audacious.But Mu Mu put on a cold face, so majestic, they didn't even dare to speak out to remind them.
In Chengxiang Palace, the noble concubine had a smile on her face.
"Your Highness the Sixth Highness is very handsome. I have selected many unmarried men in the capital. In the end, I think that only my nephew is worthy of His Highness the Sixth Highness." After speaking, the noble concubine looked at Concubine Rong with a smile, and said: " In the future, His Highness the Sixth Highness will marry that nephew of this palace, and this palace and Concubine Rong will also become more intimate."
Chu Chen: ...
The imperial concubine's nephew, sounds like an acquaintance?
"Which nephew is the imperial concubine talking about?" Chu Chen asked.
"The one who played with you on the boat last time." The imperial concubine smiled and said, "Yang Qin."
Hearing this, Chu Chen laughed angrily, and said, "That guy Yang Qin wanted to grab my king's male favor in broad daylight, but now he can think about it, and plans to marry directly into this king's mansion. Is it okay to come and serve me?"
"Is there any dissatisfaction, Your Highness?" The imperial concubine got up and walked to Chu Chen, and asked in a cold voice.
Chu Chen smiled and said, "If you marry Yang Qin, I might as well marry a piece of wood!"
The imperial concubine's face turned cold when she heard the words, she raised her hand and slapped Chu Chen.
Chu Chen's eyes were sharp and his hands were quick. He stretched out his hand and pinched the imperial concubine's wrist. The other party's slap failed, and his face turned red with anger.
"Presumptuous!" The noble concubine yelled angrily, and immediately two servants stepped forward, pinched Chu Chen's arm from left to right, and after hearing two clicks, they directly removed Chu Chen's arm.
"Fuck" Chu Chen cursed secretly, almost passed out from the pain.
Concubine Rong's eyes were red with anxiety, and Concubine Ning frowned secretly, but neither of them said anything.At this time, the imperial concubine was in a fit of anger, and rashly pleading for mercy would only make her worse. Moreover, as two of them, words really didn't carry much weight.
The noble concubine sternly said: "Your Highness the Sixth Highness refuses to accept discipline, and even intends to insult me, come, give me a slap in the face! I want to see how long he can keep his mouth so hard!"
Chu Chen:!
It's over, the imperial concubine is planning to settle the old and new grievances together, he is going to be cold today.
"Is your marriage going to be settled today?" Mu Mu helped Chu Chen comb his hair, took the jade hairpin that Chu Chen bought last time, and pinned it on the hair crown for him, and Mu Mu himself also pinned another identical jade hairpin.
"I'm afraid it's not that easy." Chu Chen said.
