Evil Girl Reborn: The Eldest Princess, She Takes Manchurian Civil and Military Affairs

Chapter 91 The Seventh Princess’ Marriage

The old lady of the Fang family was half dead on the bed, and Marquis Taiyun had no time left to propose marriage.

Two days ago, I heard that the eldest wife of the Fu family accidentally fell down when she went out and rubbed her face. Now she doesn't dare to go out.

There is no need to consider the remaining Zhou Yu, they are reinforcements.

All we have to do is wait until spring is over and choose a suitable noble son from a poor family to be the consort.

If there is no suitable one, use some strategies and keep delaying, and you can still stand at the peak of power and enjoy yourself.

Yiman picked up the medicine bowl in front of him and drank it all in one gulp, "How is your brother's health?"

Ji Lan quickly handed over the preserved fruit, "Mr. Huang said that the weather is getting warmer and His Highness the Crown Prince's health is getting better. He no longer coughs and walks to Chongwen Pavilion every day."

Yiman nodded with a faint smile, "In the past, Brother Huang used to laugh at himself, saying that he could hardly walk anymore because he was always being carried."

The two were chatting and laughing when an announcement came from outside.

"Princess, Your Majesty has summoned you."

What can happen if you are summoned at this time?

Yiman responded and guessed the emperor's purpose all the way to Yanying Hall.

Eunuch Fu saw Yiman and welcomed him in with a smile.

"My son sees my father."

"Well, get up."

Yiman raised his head slightly and saw that the emperor was reviewing the memorial, so he stood below without any embarrassment.

"You can hold your breath."

Yiman didn't know if the emperor meant a pun, so he lowered his eyes and smiled lightly, "My father is busy with important national affairs, and I don't dare to disturb him."

"Ruling a big country is like cooking small dishes. I see that you have managed the Fang family and the Fu family very well. What are you going to do with the Zhou family?"

The emperor put down his pen and looked at Yi Man who was slightly bowing his head.

With a smile on his face, there was no trace of fear, "My son is scared, always thinking that as my true princess, my father should make the final decision on the marriage. As for the Zhou family, they must have their eyes on me."

The emperor said 'hmm' and followed Yiman's words and thought of the seventh princess.

Although the seventh princess is not a legitimate princess, she has been doted on by him since she was a child.

"Since you know how to get rid of the marriage, and your imperial sister is still young, you might as well take over the Cui family for her."

Yiman raised her head suddenly and saw the emperor staring at her, then slowly lowered his head.

Emperor, what does this mean?
Are you trying to transfer the marriage between Bai Renyi and the Cui family to her?
Why?
Once you get married to a noble family, you will inevitably be abandoned by the emperor in the future.

Did the emperor mean for her to die for Bai Renyi?

Is it because I wasn’t raised under my knees since I was a child?
"My son, you don't understand what your father means?"

The emperor chuckled lightly, "I am asking you if there is any way to cancel the Cui family's marriage."

It was clearly a test just now. Once she showed any signs of cowardice, the emperor's thoughts would change.

Yiman showed a clear expression and smiled, "This is what Concubine De meant. I dare not say anything."

"I promise you to tell me directly."

Seeing that Yiman kept his head down and said nothing, the emperor said calmly: "Do you know about the New Deal Reform?"

Yiman's heart was filled with turmoil, but his face remained as still as a mountain, but his breathing was slightly short.

He raised his head and saw that the emperor's face was calm, and he said respectfully: "My father and I don't understand what my father said."

The emperor smiled nonchalantly, "It doesn't matter if you know. As long as you push forward the Cui family's marriage, I will spare you the trouble of interfering in the government affairs."

The courtiers didn't know about the New Deal reforms. There was no explicit reform policy. They secretly knew about it because they were inquiring about the government affairs. It seemed that the emperor had already determined that she knew about the New Deal reforms.

It's just that the Cui family's marriage was originally requested by Concubine De. Although it was not made clear yet, it was all tacitly understood.If she rashly rejects the Cui family's marriage, Concubine Duan De will definitely be so angry that she will sleep with her skin and eat her flesh, and she will completely offend the Duan family.

If she doesn't agree to the emperor's wishes and listen to the emperor's wishes, she will be blamed for the harem's interference in the government affairs.

For the sake of the daughter he had raised since childhood, he forced another daughter. The emperor really had a biased heart.

The smile on Yiman's face slowly disappeared, his expression was calm, but his head was slightly lowered, making it difficult to see clearly.

"My son has no way to reject the Cui family's marriage, but he should be able to let the Duan family break off the engagement on their own."

The emperor became interested for a moment, "Oh? Let's talk about it."

"On the pamphlet submitted by Marquis Taiyun to propose marriage, I wonder if it says 'big princess' or 'Princess Feiqing'?"

Looking at the emperor's brows furrowing slightly, he knew that he didn't care at that time.

Yiman didn't care, "If it's the 'eldest princess', you can use a knife to change the big character to 'seven'. If it's a title, please ask the father to give the seventh emperor a grace and give her a title similar to that of the son." Then I will correct it in the memorial of Marquis Taiyun."

The emperor wondered, "Doesn't this mean that Marquis Taiyun is asking to marry the seventh princess?"

"Yes, the Fang family has a long history of princes and rich heritage, and Marquis Taiyun has military exploits. The father can hint that he wants to marry the Seventh Emperor's sister into the Fang family. When the time comes, the Duan family and Concubine De will definitely regret it, and the marriage with the Cui family will inevitably dissipate."

The emperor looked at Yiman with a half-smile, then sat back on the throne, "Will Marquis Taiyun accept the marriage?"

For the Fang family, neither Mrs. Fang nor Marquis Taiyun dared to accept the Duan family's unwillingness.What's more, taking over the Seventh Princess would mean offending the Cui family.

The emperor would not be able to figure out such a simple truth. Is this a temptation?
"The memorial is in the hands of the Emperor Father, so it is naturally up to the Emperor Father to have the final say."

There was silence in the palace for a while. Yiman raised his eyelids slightly and saw the emperor looking at her.

Yiman lowered his eyelashes and stood there quietly.

"Go back."

"Yes, Erchen retire."

Bai Renyi, who had been imprisoned in Penglai Hall for several months, was sitting calmly in front of the dressing mirror.

With the sound of the door opening, a little palace maid came in shivering, her voice trembling, her head almost buried in her chest, "Seventh Princess, Concubine De, please go to the main hall."

When Bai Renyi turned around, his expression suddenly became extremely gloomy.After hearing the words of the little palace maid, she quietly stood up and walked out of her room.

Concubine De looked at Bai Renyi who had calmed down and breathed a sigh of relief. Her face was gloomy and she said, "The marriage with the Cui family has failed. You got your wish."

There was no joy in Bai Renyi's eyes, she just responded and stood still.

"Did you show this look to me? Have you finished reading the "Record of Surnames" given to you?"

Anger ignited in Bai Renyi's eyes, but he suppressed it for a moment, "I've finished reading. If I don't marry the Cui family, who will I marry?"

"Now that you know you regret it?"

Seeing that mother and daughter were not in a good mood, Nanny Qin glanced at Concubine De with a pleading expression.

Bai Renyi's voice was low, "I understand, women always have to get married. The Cui family is the first family in this dynasty, so it is a good place to go."

Concubine De sighed, "It's a pity that it's too late, your father doesn't agree."

"Then should I take advantage of the palace banquet to invite Young Master Cui?"

Concubine De shook her head, "No need. You are a princess. No matter who you marry, you will marry down. There is no need to lower your status. It is not the time yet."

"Yes, my son listens to my mother and concubine."

Seeing that Bai Renyi had become completely obedient, Concubine De softened her heart and said, "The matter of choosing a prince-in-law will be decided after you are old enough, so you don't have to stay in Penglai Hall in the future."

A hint of ferocity appeared on Bai Renyi's face, which turned into ferocity in his eyes, "Then can I attack Bai Yiman?"

Concubine De glanced meaningfully, "As long as you can protect yourself and don't let me clean up your mess."
