Chapter 389 The Crown Prince Was Unprepared

Outside, Qi Changshi was talking with Lu Tianyao about proposing marriage.

Praising the identity and character of the eldest son of the imperial concubine, I hope that Wuchang Bofu will agree to propose marriage and accept the dowry as soon as possible.

He also successfully completed the task.

Lu Tianyao looked at Xiao Yunzhang, who had chosen this day for marriage proposals and appointments, and twitched his mouth, secretly thinking that this son-in-law was impatient.

After being polite, Lu Tianyao agreed to the marriage without delay, and thanked the Lord Long En for looking down on their uncle's house.

There was a lot of discussion among the guests, and no one could hold back the surprise.

Unexpectedly, Lu Weiyu married the royal family in a blink of an eye after only three months of resignation. This marriage is very profitable!
Of course, the Chen family can't enter the gate of the uncle's mansion, so they can't come to visit today.

On the Wu family's side, only Mrs. Wu and her second daughter can enter the uncle's mansion.

Because the Bofu didn't invite them to post at all, and it was inconvenient for too many people to come.

Seeing the people in the prince's mansion offering an offer of marriage, Mrs. Wu's heart was full of mixed feelings.

I don't know what to say about the marriage between the uncle's mansion and the Chen family, whether it is better to retire or not.

Once Xiao Yunchen was used to the gentle image of the breeze and the moon, after Qi Changshi spoke, he became stern and gloomy.

It's just that Xiao Yunlang's sudden laughter came from the side.

He quickly hid his emotions and returned to the familiar gentle demeanor.

"Oh, I was thinking of getting acquainted with Cousin Xiao Yu first, and then propose marriage, but I didn't expect..."

"Our elder brother really did something big without saying a word."

Xiao Yunlang naturally saw the prince's angry and gloomy reaction at that moment, but his heart was overjoyed.

As long as the prince is not happy, he is happy!
As for who married Lu Weiyu, it didn't matter.

His grandfather said that even if the old Wuchang uncle handed over his military power, he would not care about world affairs for so many years.

The Wuchang uncle's mansion has not collapsed, and this number is still there among the dignitaries in the capital.

That explains the problem.

Wuchang Bofu is still powerful.

It is of course a good thing if you can make friends with each other, but it is not a good thing either.

Now that the emperor is in his prime, whoever has the most power is the most dangerous.

From the fact that the Chen family has suffered in various ways in the past two years, we know what the emperor means.

Don't look at the Lin family dancing fiercely, in fact, it was all acquiesced by the emperor.

As long as the Zhang family followed the Lin family and trampled on the Chen family, they would stop as soon as they could get some benefits.

If you really want to chase the Chen family blindly, when the Zhang family rises from power, it may be the Zhang family's turn to be unlucky.

Therefore, he is just a willful and reckless prince.

Even if the prince is laughed at, the prince can only accept it and cannot confront him, otherwise it will destroy the good image of the prince's modesty.

He had never done assassination and frame-up with real swords and swords, and he didn't dare to do it for the time being, for fear that if he really angered his father, he wouldn't be able to bear it.

At the beginning, the big emperor brother was chased and killed by the dead for thousands of miles, and he almost died outside. That incident was made clear to everyone.

No matter how unfavored the prince is, he is also the eldest son of his father. The Chen family has touched his father's rebellious scales, and the consequences will naturally be heavy losses.

Regardless of whether the Chen family admits it or not, the evidence that can be found so far all points to the Chen family's forces.

It doesn't matter whether the Chen family admits it or not, as the emperor has confirmed that it was the Chen family's actions.

The prince has also kept a low profile in the past two years.

It's just that the crown prince wants to get married to Uncle Wuchang, and wants to marry Uncle Wuchang's eldest daughter, Xiao Yunlang, who has been staring at him, naturally knows.

This is the reason for today's turmoil.

Originally, Xiao Yunchen was still thinking that as long as the crown prince proposed marriage, he would also propose marriage, so let's fight anyway.

If the two princes compete, the value of the Wuchang uncle's mansion will be known to the father.

In the end, the prince will definitely not be allowed to gain the power of Wuchang Bofu.

This marriage will not work.

did not expect……

They are still fighting openly and secretly.

The eldest brother Huang, who has always been so low-key that he has no sense of existence, has his father allowed him to propose marriage to the uncle's house?

There was no sign before, so I picked today unexpectedly.

Hitting him... No, he hit the prince so unexpectedly that he missed the opportunity to stop him.

Everyone in the capital knows the attitude of Wuchang Bofu.

Lu Weiyu and Yan had no intention of seeing each other before, but she will meet Yan next year.

Lu Weiyu even put aside her words, she would rather marry a poor family than have three wives and four concubines, competing for favor with others.

Who would have thought that it would be too early to reach Jiji next year, and Xiao Yunzhang is not from a poor family either.

Who would have thought that Xiao Yunzhang would have his father order to propose marriage?

Although Qi Changshi didn't come up with an imperial decree, the eunuch who came with him only came to send little Lu Ming's first birthday gift.

But these two people appeared at the same time, and the betrothal gifts were also delivered.

That explains the problem very well.

This is what the emperor has allowed.

And Lu Tianyao agreed.

Although there are other ceremonies to go after this marriage, everyone knows that the marriage has been decided.

In the past, Xiao Yunzhang came and went quietly when he came to the uncle's mansion, going straight to the study building, and did not walk around in the uncle's mansion.

Even Lu Weiyu didn't recognize his true face, let alone other people?
It's just that he appeared in Qingfengyuan as Young Master Lingfeng.

I was also afraid of being discovered by others, so I was more cautious when I came to the library.

Looking for Lu Weiyu is also to have someone call her to the library.

Only the guards in the mansion, the secret guards and old man Yu knew his two identities.

Even, Old Man Yu and the secret guards played a big role in helping Xiao Yunzhang to get married with Lu Weiyu so smoothly.

Otherwise not so fast!

The imperial decree of bestowing marriage had already been handed over to Lu Tianyao by Old General Lin and put away.

Now it is Xiao Yunzhang who is here to walk the ceremony.

Prince Xiao Yunchen looked at all this with gloomy eyes, and suddenly muttered.

"Since it was arranged by my father, why didn't I hear any news? This Qi Changshi is probably..."

Under the guise of an oracle?
He didn't finish his sentence, but he also raised doubts.

The voice was not too loud, and several guests beside them heard it too, and looked at him in surprise.

Looking at Qi Changshi again, discussions arose.

Xiao Yunzhang has met Lu Tianyao, the old ancestor, and old general Lin one by one, and is about to sneak into the backyard to coax the little girl.

"You don't need to be suspicious." Qi Changshi heard the discussion, clasped his fists and raised his hands, and spoke loudly.

"The emperor entrusted Concubine Lin to be responsible for the marriage of His Royal Highness during the New Year's banquet in the palace."

"Concubine Lin was still a little undecided about picking and choosing."

"Unexpectedly, a few months later, Concubine Lin's aunt and niece, who is also the eldest daughter of the uncle's family, divorced because of the incidents in the capital a while ago."

"In that March, Concubine Lin asked the emperor for instructions, and wanted to make a match between the Grand Palace and Miss Lu."

"Your Majesty has approved, and invited Duke Dingguo to enter the palace, so there is a reason for today's marriage."

"His Majesty's marriage will naturally be handed over to Concubine Lin. Most of these betrothal gifts are arranged by the emperor."

"The little half dowry gift is a shop and house in the capital, which is the private property that the emperor has bestowed on His Royal Highness over the years."

"His Royal Highness is afraid of wronging Miss Lu, so he added these to the betrothal gift."

"Do you have any doubts?"

Qi Changshi's words seemed to clear up the doubts of the guests, but they were actually in response to the prince's doubts, so as not to be taken the opportunity to find fault.

From the very beginning, it blocked the gap for others to find fault, and it also showed the integrity and sincerity of this marriage.

Any more comments?

Go talk to the emperor yourself!
Qi Changshi glanced at the prince indifferently, and then looked at Lu Tianyao again, preparing to set an auspicious date before discussing the following ceremonies.

There are also marriage letters, geng posts, etc.

At this time, Xiao Yunchen had returned to normal, he stepped forward waving his fan, and looked at Xiao Yunzhang.

"I didn't expect that the marriage that was arranged in March would not be made public until today. Brother Huang really can't hold back."

"Hehe, the emperor's brother is a prince, so naturally I don't remember when the emperor's birthday is, after all..."

"The empress only remembers to hold a birthday flower banquet for the prince every year, and invites the noble ladies of the capital to the banquet."

"Where do you remember my motherless poor prince's birthday?"

"Today, taking advantage of Xiao Wang's twentieth birthday and the fate of the young master's birthday on the same day, Xiao Wang begged his father to propose marriage today."

"This is also Xiaowang's birthday wish. It is the kindness of the father that made this arrangement today. Congratulations to the crown prince and the third brother."

Although Xiao Yunzhang is the king of the county, the crown prince is the heir.

But Xiao Yunzhang is also the eldest son.

Although the emperor did not postulate his mother as his successor, his eldest son is also a fact that no one can erase.

For so many years, Xiao Yunzhang never saluted the crown prince, even in front of the emperor.

This is also the act of the emperor's acquiescence.

At least Xiao Yunzhang didn't need to bow his head to the crown prince before he ascended the throne.

The premise is that the prince can successfully ascend the throne.

Xiao Yunzhang's words unambiguously exposed the selfishness and partiality of Empress Chen, the stepmother.

The crowd couldn't help but there was a murmur of discussion again, Prince Xiao Yunchen's complexion changed.

"Third brother, congratulations to elder brother, happy marriage!" Xiao Yunlang took the lead in cupping his fists and congratulating him.

Xiao Yunchen lowered his eyes, bowed, and could only say: "Congratulations, Brother Huang."

"Brother Huang has always had a high vision and never bothered to say hello to noble ladies. Now he finally picks the one he likes. Congratulations."

Facing the prince's soft knife to instigate his relationship with the courtier's family, Xiao Yunzhang just smiled slightly and returned the salute with fists.

"Since the marriage is settled, I can be regarded as the eldest son-in-law of Uncle Wuchang."

"It's already an auspicious time, and it's time to start the banquet. I also invite my two younger brothers to the table. No wonder I didn't greet well."

"Dear guests, please join us!" Xiao Yunzhang bowed again to the guests who were still gathered here.

"Today is Xiao Wang's brother-in-law's first birthday in the uncle's mansion, and it is also Xiao Wang's marriage proposal. It is a double happiness. I hope you don't think the food and wine are poor. Please enjoy the feast."

He directly took up the airs of the son-in-law of the uncle's mansion, and acted as the host to treat the guests, and immediately looked at many people dumbfounded.

This, this relationship, is progressing too fast!

Your Majesty, you really don't treat yourself as an outsider!

At the moment, there are also those who are quick to see the opportunity, and immediately return the gift and exchange greetings, saying that it is a blessing to have a double happiness in the uncle's house...

At the moment, they congratulated Lu Tianyao again, and after a noisy exchange of greetings, they each took their seats.

It's not good for Xiao Yunchen to leave directly, otherwise he will offend the uncle's house, this is not the purpose of his coming today.

Just looking at Xiao Yunzhang no longer treating himself as a guest, he couldn't swallow this breath in his heart.

Ding Buxing from Bofu, Lu Tianyao only has two sons and they are so young.

He has only one concubine younger brother, and the concubine has three sons, but they are all young men.

Therefore, when encountering this kind of banquet guests, there are really not many people that the family can send out.

That's why many clan members and direct relatives came out to help with entertainment.

For example, Old General Lin, General Lin, and Brother Lin Pingzhan.

After all, members of the Lu family were not well-known in the court, so they could not entertain those powerful guests.

At this time, the [-]-year-old son-in-law came out to socialize, and just toasted him with a glass of wine, and the other party was flattered.

The uncle's mansion is married to the royal family, and a princess is about to be born.

Isn't it an honor for them to make friends with the Bofu?
