Chapter 152 Please listen carefully to Xue's past
"It's my son who acted too impulsively. In order to appease Thirteenth Uncle's anger, Father should do so."

Rong Heng had a calm expression on his face, as if he didn't care at all.

In fact, I have already scolded this dear father eight hundred times in my heart.

Seeing him like this, Emperor Ren was very pleased, nodded and said: "Recently, those subordinate countries have paid tribute to a group of foreign women. If you like, you can pick a few and serve them in the mansion."

"Thank you, Father."

Rong Heng bowed his head, feeling very disdainful in his heart.

Is this a slap in the face for a sweet date?
However, he is a lustful person, and the exotic beauty of foreign women has always attracted him.

Being able to pick a few foreign women to serve by his side, this fight is considered worthwhile.

"Heng'er, do you know that you wanted to marry Shen Tingxue before, why did I keep refusing to agree?"

Rong Heng's face changed slightly, and he looked up at Emperor Ren.

He never expected that Emperor Ren would take the initiative to ask this question.

Rong Heng shook his head lightly.

Emperor Ren sighed, and said meaningfully: "The Shen family is rich enough, it is not appropriate to have a son-in-law who is so rich."

"I plan to find Shen Tingxue a son from a scholarly family to marry."

"That girl has a bad temper, and someone should take care of her and teach her how to behave, otherwise General Zhennan's face will be lost to her sooner or later."

Rong Heng was startled, and suddenly understood.

It turns out that his father is suspicious of the Shen family to such an extent?

He knew that Emperor Ren didn't want Rong Zhan to marry Shen Tingxue because he was worried that the two would become in-laws and completely control the military power.

But he thought it would be fine for Shen Tingxue to marry him. After all, he is the prince and the blood of the royal family. Isn't it just right that his family's military power is in the hands of his own people?
Only now did I know that his father would not allow Shen Tingxue to marry any powerful family. He said that he was from a scholarly family, but he was probably from a family with no name but a job.

Moreover, Emperor Ren didn't believe him, and didn't want him to have the opportunity to take over the military power of the Shen family.

His father seemed to particularly hate Shen Tingxue's domineering temperament.

Those literati are the most respectful of rules, and when a woman like Shen Tingxue marries, just the rules of those scholarly families can make her skinned down.

What's more, literati can speak with their mouths, and their articles can curse people.

If Shen Tingxue doesn't obey the rules and doesn't serve her in-laws, she will definitely be drowned in the saliva of those literati.

Rong Heng lowered his head and smiled lightly.

The emperor kept saying that Shen Chengting was a hero, but he didn't want to make Shen Chengting's precious daughter feel better.

The more miserable Shen Tingxue's life was, and the more unsatisfactory the marriage, the happier this father was.

"I found a few suitable people, take a look."

Emperor Ren took a list to Rong Heng.

Rong Heng glanced at them, and they were indeed some nameless literati children with no real power in their hands, and they boasted that they were noble and behaved beyond the heavens.

A woman like Shen Tingxue is definitely not what they like.

Father Huang really likes to push people into the fire pit.

"These people are full of knowledge, gentlemen, father and emperor have good intentions."

"My son thinks that if one of these people is randomly selected to marry Shen Tingxue, it will be an excellent marriage."

Emperor Ren nodded, "I think so too."

"You can connect them first. The female family members in your mansion should know the female family members of these families. I will leave this matter to you."

"However, don't be too deliberate."

Hearing this, Rong Heng was startled again.

Isn't it easy to ask him to do this kind of matchmaking with a prince?

However, Rong Heng quickly reacted.

Emperor Ren still wanted him to take the blame.

It's inappropriate for others to do this, and they have no grudge against Shen Tingxue, nor against Rong Zhan.

Only he can't get used to Rong Zhan and still wants to marry Shen Tingxue, but if he can't get married, it will be a hindrance to prevent Rong Zhan from wishing, this motive seems really good.

"My son understands."

Rong Heng nodded, and replied calmly.

After being beaten this time, his temper has calmed down a lot, and he is no longer so impulsive in doing things.

When leaving the palace, Rong Heng received a lot of rewards.

Emperor Ren gave this sweet date very well.

After today, those who underestimated Rong Heng dare not do anything else.

After returning to the mansion, Rong Heng asked someone to call his concubine Wei.

Wei's family background is not high, and it is only because of having an uncle who is the servant of the Ministry of Rites that he can enter the prince's mansion and find a concubine.

Although there are many beauties in Rongheng's backyard, none of them have any status. Now the main concubine and side concubine have not been selected, so Wei's concubine is temporarily in charge of the backyard.

"My concubine greets Your Highness."

Wei Shi packed up, brought the maid over, and saluted respectfully.

The Wei family is a little clever, and he does things steadily. He is quite charming, and his appearance can be considered to be in line with the second prince's greedy and lustful taste.

Therefore, he is not bad to Wei Shi.

"This hall remembers that there seem to be three sons in your uncle's family, and the third sons are not engaged yet."

Wei Shi didn't know why Rong Heng had the mind to worry about other people's marriage, but he still shook his head, and replied truthfully: "Not yet, I just turned eighteen this year."

"I'm not afraid of Your Highness's jokes when I say it. This concubine's cousin is very discerning. My aunt decided to show him a lot of girls. He either despises the girl for being ugly, or despises the girl for not being tall enough, or despises the girl for being too fat or thin."

The minister of the Ministry of Rites worships the fourth rank, which is not a small official.

Moreover, the Wei family is somewhat related to Duke Wei's mansion, so even though they are scholars, that family has very high vision.

Of the three sons, the first two sons also chose all the girls in Beijing to marry, and they made a decision after comparing them.

But it's okay, at least they are married.

But this little son of the Wei family has ridiculously high eyesight. He has been seeing girls since he was 15 years old, and he is still not satisfied after three years of seeing each other.

This pickiness is well-known throughout Shangjing.

Therefore, in Emperor Ren's list of husbands for Shen Tingxue, the first one was Wei Changming, the young son of the Wei family.

"Has any high-ranking officials and nobles in Beijing held a birthday banquet recently?"

"Have."

"Duke Ning's wife is celebrating her 66th birthday soon."

"Oh, my hall was busy and forgot."

When Ning Guogong was mentioned, a look of disdain flashed in Rong Heng's eyes.

Ning Guogong was the father of the first empress, and was once a powerful family.

It's a pity that the first queen died of illness, and the son she left behind was gone.

There is no one to rely on in the palace, and the family members are all taking idle jobs, so the current Duke's Mansion has a name and no real power.

It's just that it was the family of the former empress, and Emperor Ren took good care of this father-in-law, so Mrs. Ning Guo's birthday celebration would not be too simple.

Most of the officials in Beijing would show face and congratulate in person, and the Wei family was no exception.

"Weiss."

"The concubine is here."

"You think of a way, let the Ningguo government also send a post to the Shen family, inviting Shen Tingxue to come over."
