The best idlers of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 88 Are you the fourth daughter of the emperor?

Du Rui's current situation can no longer be described as stunned. Wang De waited for a long time but Du Rui said, "Thank you Lord Long En!"Just in a daze, as if he had lost his soul, he placed the imperial decree on the incense table, bowed to Du Rui who was still kneeling on the ground, and said: "Congratulations!"

Wang De, who came to proclaim the decree, has left, and Du Rui is still kneeling on the ground without feeling anything. His mind is full of the two completely different imperial decrees just now. He was just sent here before, and he was scolded indiscriminately. After a pause, he betrothed his own daughter to him without any refusal. What does this pretentiousness mean?

Du Rui was still figuring out what was going on in a daze. The hearts of the other people in the Du mansion seemed to have been smeared with honey. Du Yunlian might not know what happened, so she came to Du Rui's side timidly, Asking: "Third brother! What happened to the red boy!?"

But Mrs. Ma, Mrs. Ji, Mrs. Bai, and the older Du Yunfu are all happy for Du Rui in their hearts at this moment. Their lives are all tied to Du Rui alone. It's all bad. Before Taizong sent someone to reprimand them, they were still worried that Du Rui would lose his family from now on. Now that Taizong actually married the princess, it was a great joy.

Mrs. Ma came to Du Rui's side first, and stretched out his hand to help Du Rui up, saying: "Sanlang! What are you still kneeling on, it's cold on the ground, why don't you get up!"

The Bai family on the side smiled and said: "Xu is very happy, I am afraid Sanlang is still thinking about his princess right now!"

Du Yunlian looked at Bai Shi suspiciously, and said, "Auntie! What does the third brother want the princess to do? But sister Ankang?"

Du Rui woke up suddenly when he heard the name Ankang, looked back at everyone, and said, "The fourteenth daughter of the emperor mentioned in the edict just now is Princess Ankang!?"

Although Du Rui was familiar with Tang history in his previous life, the human brain is not a computer after all, and it is impossible to memorize the ranking of Taizong's daughter army. However, if Ankang was betrothed to him, Du Rui would not be difficult to accept, after all It's still a person I know, so I don't wait until we get married to meet each other.

But after thinking about it, he thought it was impossible. After all, Ankang was only eight years old after the new year. How could he be so young at such a young age? Du Rui forgot that he was just an 11-year-old boy now.

Seeing that no one answered, Du Rui asked again: "Which princess is the emperor's fourteenth daughter!?"

When everyone heard the words, they looked at each other with embarrassment. Du Rui laughed at himself when he saw it. Although in Taizong's harem, whenever a new heir was added, he would always announce it to the world and celebrate it, but the horse like Taizong With the average birth rate and the super high survival rate rarely seen in feudal society, no matter how careful a person is, he might not be able to remember clearly which princess the Emperor's Fourteenth Daughter is.

Half an hour ago, in Yongde Palace, Ankang was bored in the palace today, so he thought of going to Empress Changsun to tease the young Li Zhi. Confused, he heard Taizong's voice coming from inside.

"I'm really reluctant to betroth Ankang to that kid."

When Ankang heard this sentence, he was shocked: Father betrothed me to someone else?who is it! ?who is it! ?

Ankang's heart suddenly became chaotic. A few days ago, she had heard the rumor that Taizong planned to betroth her to the hero Dugu Yanyun's son Dugumou. Could it be this matter?

At this moment, Ankang couldn't help but think of that handsome young man in white clothes like snow, those nice tunes, and the song "Moonlight Night on the Spring River" that she deliberately couldn't learn.

When Princess Ankang was at a loss, Empress Zhangsun rescued her and said with a smile: "Although that young man Du Rui behaves a little weirdly, he still knows the general idea and has a talent for learning. He will not humiliate Ankang, Your Majesty now If you regret it, wouldn’t you be breaking your promise!?”

"Hey! Empress! You should stop saying good things for that kid and marry my precious daughter. If he is not honest, I will not spare him lightly! Empress! You should tell Ankang about this! I really don't know if Ankang is the right son-in-law for her!"

Empress Changsun smiled and said: "At this time, it is natural for the concubine to go. Ankang's face is tender. In front of you, the emperor, it is what I want in my heart. Could it be said that I can't say it?"

Taizong also laughed and said, "That's true!"

After solving a troublesome matter, Taizong's heart became much more relaxed, but he, as a father, was happy, and Ankang's heart outside the door seemed to be twisted into a twist, and he became a ball.

I was betrothed to Du Rui, Du Rui will be my son-in-law in the future, is this true?is this real?

Ankang's heart suddenly burst into ecstasy, but when he thought of his own daughter's family, if he promised someone else and had a wishful husband, he would be overjoyed. Hearing footsteps at this time, Ankang was taken aback, and hurriedly hid aside, just in time to see Wang Delai replying the order.

"Wang De! What is Du Rui's shape after receiving the imperial edict!?" Taizong asked with a smile on his face.

Hearing the words, Wang De couldn't help being troubled. Before that, he had often gone out of the palace to announce the decree, and he didn't see Taizong asking how the person who received the decree would respond. But today, after Du Rui received the decree, he looked dumbfounded. Wang De really I don't know how to report back.

Seeing that Wang De was silent, Taizong frowned and said: "You slave, you talk so much on weekdays, why are you so dumb today! Then what did Du Rui say?"

Wang De hurriedly fell to his knees and said, "Damn the old slave! That Concubine Du really didn't say anything?"

Taizong was unhappy when he heard the words, and asked again: "Didn't you say anything? Could it be that Du Rui dared to resist the order!"

Wang De said: "This~~~~~~This~~~~~~~~~"

Seeing this, Empress Changsun hurriedly said, "How Du Rui reacts, you just tell the truth!"

Hearing this, Wang De hurriedly said: "Yes! The old servant read out the imperial edict, but Concubine Du didn't say anything, he just stayed in a daze, neither resisting the edict nor expressly accepting it!"

"You bastard!" Taizong was furious when he heard the words, and jumped up against the case.

When Wang De saw this, he couldn't help being shocked, kowtowed like a trick, and shouted: "My lord, forgive me, my lord, forgive me!"

When Empress Changsun saw her, she hurriedly got up and gave Taizong a hand, and said to Wang De: "Don't do your business, go down!"

Wang De thanked him, and hurriedly withdrew. Seeing that Taizong was still angry, Empress Changsun persuaded, "Your Majesty! Why don't you let Qian'er ask you? How about it?"

"Nonsense! Could it be that my Ankang is not worthy of him, Du Chengming! If he dares to resist the decree and hurt Ankang's heart, I will save myself from doing those things, just cut him straight and let him have a good time!"

Empress Changsun was thinking of persuading her again, but she saw Ankang crying and came in. She had listened to every sentence in the conversation in the palace just now, and when Taizong said that Du Rui was unwilling, she was so angry that her heart died at the time I had it all, and I ran in without having time to think about it.

Taizong was startled, and hurriedly said: "Ankang! You~~~~~"

"Father! I will go to Du Rui's mansion right now, and make it clear to him face to face. If he doesn't want to marry my son, I will be ashamed!" Ankang ran out after finishing speaking.

Taizong was stunned for a while before he realized that Ankang had already run far away, and hurriedly shouted: "Ma Xuanliang! Ma Xuanliang! Go and follow the princess. If there is something wrong with Ankang, I will ask for you!"

Ankang returned to his dormitory after leaving the Yongde Palace, had someone prepare a carriage, and then headed towards Du Rui's mansion. He didn't cry all the way, he just had a pretty face, but now he became fierce Yes, kept chanting: "Du Chengming, if you really dare to refuse the marriage, I will die in front of you immediately!"

This is not entirely because Princess Ankang is infatuated with Du Rui. The key is that in such a time, if the Emperor Taizong decreed to grant a marriage and Du Rui's refusal was spread, how could she have any face as a girl? Alive, those gossips would shame her to death.

Arriving at Du Rui's mansion, Ankang couldn't tolerate Du Gui's report, so he went straight to the front hall, and saw that everyone inside was talking happily, but Du Rui was sitting aside with a worried expression on his face. I feel sad for a while.

Looks like he really doesn't like me!

At this time, someone discovered that Princess Ankang had arrived. Like Li Chengqian, she was a frequent visitor to Du Rui's residence, and the Du family had long been familiar with her.

"Sister Ankang!" Du Yunlian smiled and rushed towards Ankang.

Ankang and Du Yunlian were the best friends on weekdays, but he ignored it at this time, and walked in front of Du Rui. Du Rui came back to his senses at this moment. Given the marriage, this little girl who always liked to pester him didn't know what to think.

"Ankang! Why are you here!?" Du Rui and Ankang were also familiar with each other, so they no longer called her Your Highness the Princess, but directly called her by her title.

With a look of anger on Ankang's face, he raised his jade feet with silk shoes towards Du Rui's calf. Du Rui quickly dodged sideways, and even reached out to support Princess Ankang, for fear that she would fall.

"Ankang! What are you crazy about!"

Ankang was extremely angry, and punched Du Rui with a punch: "I just want to lose my nerve and kill you! Kill you!"

Du Rui quickly reached out and clenched Ankang's little fist, saying, "What are you doing today!"

"You still come to ask me!" Ankang threw Du Rui away angrily, and said, "I came to ask you, but someone came to your house to announce the decree today!"

Du Rui nodded and said, "That's right!"

"Father ordered the marriage!?"

Du Rui nodded again.

Ankang's small face flushed red, and he said angrily: "Du Chengming! Do you not want it in your heart!"

Du Rui said: "I don't want to, but~~~~"

Before Du Rui could finish speaking, Ankang yelled loudly, like a little tigress: "Du Chengming! Why don't you want to!? If you don't tell me why, I won't let you go! "

Du Rui was taken aback for a moment, guessing that Ankangxu came to the top for the sake of his sisters, but somehow his displeasure spread to the palace, and he said after thinking: "I don't even know who the fourteenth daughter of the emperor is, so now I want to marry you." Marry her, how I would like to, but the Holy One issued an imperial decree, I have to agree, why! Why don’t I be depressed! By the way! Come and tell me, which of your elder sisters is the fourteenth daughter of the emperor? ! What’s wrong with not being able to get married, why do you have to rely on me!?”

Ankang's chest was about to explode, he took a deep breath, and roared: "I am the fourteenth daughter of the emperor, Du Rui! I will never spare you!"
