The relationship between Fu Yunxi and the Empress Dowager has never been good. Fu Yunxi and the current emperor are not the Empress Dowager's biological children, but the children of Concubine Hui at that time. Because the Empress Dowager had no children and Concubine Hui died young, Hui was married off. The concubine's two children were raised in her name. Later, the late emperor made the current emperor the crown prince. The emperor and Fu Yunxi had always respected and loved the empress dowager simply because the empress dowager treated them as their own children. Later, for some unknown reason, Fu Yunxi and the Empress Dowager gradually became estranged. Every time she mentioned the Empress Dowager, Fu Yunxi always looked cold. The emperor was suspicious and didn't say anything when asked. He only said that there was some misunderstanding between him and the Queen Mother.
"There are many things that the world doesn't understand." Fu Yunxi returned to his previous cold demeanor: "The emperor should take care of his two princes if he has the time. I just saw the prince a few days ago, and he was extremely depressed and uncomfortable."
The emperor's expression changed: "He is just incompetent. He only knows how to play around all day long and has no progress at all. I will be really angry to death. If he is half as sensible as Lao Qi... "
"The world is in trouble." Fu Yunxi took over his words: "The seventh prince has been very close to the officials in charge of the salt merchants recently." He said coldly: "The emperor might as well send someone to investigate."
"Is this your gift of gratitude for my will?" The emperor smiled and said, "Would you like me to grant you a marriage together?"
"No need." Fu Yunxi said calmly: "Some things are best handled by yourself."
In Prince Wei's palace, Wei Jing looked at his son. Unknowingly, Wei Rufeng had reached the age of marrying a wife and having children. Over the years, he had never let himself worry. But now that little girl from the Zhuang Mansion kept making him lose his composure, which was not a good thing for Prince Wei's Mansion.
"What exactly do you think?" he asked.
Wei Rufeng replied respectfully: "Father, we have to find that thing. Zhuang Hanyan can't be more suitable to be the crown prince's concubine."
Wei Jing's face darkened: "You think I don't know what you think? Humph, no matter who you want to marry, as long as your surname is Zhuang. Now that Zhuang Yushan has entered the door, why do you need Zhuang Hanyan? From my father's perspective, Zhuang Hanyan is scheming, so I'm afraid it's not good."
Wei Rufeng said nothing.
Wei Jing looked at his face: "Do you like her?"
Wei Rufeng denied: "Haier just feels unwilling to do so. She is supposed to be his wife, but she is always so cold to him. If I marry her, I will definitely feel bad."
Seeing that he didn't mean what he said, Wei Jing couldn't help but sigh: "A beauty is a disaster. I think this may not work out."
A prophecy.
When the emperor's marriage was granted, no one expected it.
After Wei Jing received the decree, Wei Rufeng ignored the etiquette and grabbed the father-in-law who announced the decree and asked: "Why did the emperor suddenly grant a marriage?"
Although the right minister's daughter is a good match for him, the news came too suddenly, which is really suspicious. Moreover, just when Han Yan's marriage to him was about to be finalized, could it be that Han Yan still has such extraordinary ability to get the result? The emperor's help
The father-in-law glanced at him sideways and said sharply: "The Zajia family doesn't dare to guess the emperor's thoughts, and the Zajia family doesn't know how to answer the prince's question."
Wei Jing saw the look in the father-in-law's eyes and knew that these eunuchs were popular people in front of the emperor, and even the officials of the imperial court had to be somewhat polite when they saw them. He took a step forward, handed him a big money bag, and said with a smile: "Thank you for your hard work, father-in-law, but I am also very confused. After all, the emperor did not say that he had any plans for my son's marriage before."
The father-in-law was a man. He touched the money bag in his hand, rolled his eyes, came closer, and whispered in a voice that only a few people could hear: "The Za family doesn't know very well. They only know that Xuan Qing was there the day before yesterday." The king came to see the emperor once and talked with the emperor for a long time in the study..." The following words were not explained. When Wei Rufeng heard the name of King Xuanqing, his mind immediately recalled the several times he had seen him and Han Yan have a close relationship. He looked so angry that he couldn't help but feel angry.
After sending his father-in-law away, Wei Jing was about to say something, but saw that Wei Rufeng was no longer in the room.
However, Wei Rufeng said that in anger, he actually went to a newly opened restaurant to drink wine. He had always presented himself as a modest gentleman and kept himself clean, and had never done such a self-destructive act. At the moment, Qiqiao was angry at the emperor's imperial edict, and he knew in his heart that this matter had something to do with Han Yan. It felt like it was the first time in my life that I had devoted so much attention to a woman, only to be abandoned. He was angry and resentful in his heart. He was angry that Zhuang Hanyan didn't know how to appreciate him, and he hated Fu Yunxi for taking away his wife. In his heart, Han Yan has become Hong Xing's cheating wife, but Fu Yunxi is the adulterer who ruined their marriage! But he never thought that Han Yan had never discussed marriage with him, let alone being a wife. No one in the world was born to be waiting for someone. Han Yan was a thoughtful person. Could it be that when his son Wei proposed marriage, others You should be grateful and treat each other with joy and freshness immediately! I don’t know where this wishful thinking comes from.
As he drank the wine in his hand one by one, he already felt a little drunk, and his eyes became redder and redder. He only thought of that person, and felt endless hatred in his heart. He even hated the emperor who issued this imperial edict.
A hand snatched the wine glass from his hand.
Wei Rufeng was angry: "Who?"
"It's me." The low and disdainful voice made him shiver, and he suddenly woke up from his drunken state. He looked at the man in rich clothes sitting opposite him and said, "Your Majesty, the Seventh Highness."
The Seventh Prince filled a glass for himself, took a sip slowly, and looked at him: "I have heard about the imperial edict, but she is just a woman. Is it worth your frustration?"
Wei Rufeng turned away and said in a cryptic voice: "Your Highness does not know something. This matter... is all controlled by King Xuanqing!"
The seventh prince was unmoved, as if he had expected what he would say, and said with a smile: "I have long seen that these two are not simple. My uncle Wang has always looked down on everything, but he has repeatedly treated a little girl like her. If it's a coincidence, it's too much of a coincidence to help." He stared at Wei Rufeng: "It's just that you are unlucky. Your own concubine likes Uncle Wang, so why should you care about such an unfaithful woman?"
Wei Rufeng's heart was extremely complicated. He didn't know when he started to fall in love with Han Yan. He only knew that from the first moment he met Han Yan, he felt that she was very different from others. Later, she became even more indifferent to him, and she even held a grudge against him, as if Han Yan shouldn't have treated him with that attitude. When he learned that she would not become his Crown Princess, he even felt deep despair, as if the position of Crown Princess was born for her. Now that everything was separated from the development of the matter itself, he was both at a loss and heartbroken.
The seventh prince held the wine cup: "Uncle Wang has always been clever in his methods, and my father has great trust in him. How could my father not agree to his request?" He smiled: "To tell you the truth, I also I don’t like Uncle Wang, he seems to have taken advantage of all the good things in this world, how can there be such a lucky person?”
