Capítulo 1002: Chapter 549: The Xiang Family Bloodline Exposed!
Therefore, when Jingtai intended to bestow marriage by betrothing Princess Pingyang to Chen Yuan, Noble Consort Yang said sothing quite inopportune.
And as soon as she spoke,
most of the gazes in the grand hall turned towards her.
The birth mother of the Eldest Prince was sowhat stunned. Upon hearing the Emperor’s words just now, she was a bit displeased, after all, if Princess Pingyang were to be given to Chen Yuan, Sima Ke’s influence would grow even more.
This would not bode well for the other two princes.
However, she never expected Noble Consort Yang would jump in to stop it.
It was sowhat strange.
The Empress, Sima Qian, Sima You, including Princess Pingyang all had this expression.
Only Sima Ke furrowed his brows, realizing the crucial point.
Perhaps she didn’t want the mother and daughter to serve one husband together.
But….
Mother, you’re confused!
You and Chen Yuan have no results; it was just a fleeting affair, why ddle so much?
After all, your relationship is only known by heaven, earth, you, , and him.
If Chen Yuan beca his brother-in-law, he would surely be more devoted to helping him, greatly increasing his chances of becoming the Crown Prince in the future!
Jingtai’s expression sank slightly, sowhat displeased, looking at Noble Consort Yang and said lightly:
“Where does Noble Consort think it’s inappropriate?”
Even the form of address changed, Noble Consort Yang thought to herself silently, looking at Jingtai’s rather gloomy expression, she still gritted her teeth and said:
“Pingyang is the current Princess, of noble identity, with a cold temperant, whereas Marquis Wu’an, Chen Yuan, is also of a firm disposition and great ambition. If Pingyang were to marry him, I believe…it’s not quite suitable.”
The more she spoke, the smaller Noble Consort Yang’s voice beca.
Because her reason was too la, mainly because things ca too suddenly, she couldn’t think of much at the mont, but seeing Jingtai’s furrowed brows, she suddenly had a flash of insight and hurriedly said:
“Moreover, as I know, Marquis Wu’an, Chen Yuan, still maintains a woman in Qingzhou, and when he was in Liangzhou, he also road around for a long ti, whereas Pingyang is a chaste woman,
marrying the Marquis Wu’an, wouldn’t it be too….”
“That’s enough.”
Noble Consort Yang’s words were cut off by Jingtai, he lightly snorted:
“Marquis Wu’an is young and vigorous, it’s normal for him to find a few won, as long as he can reform in the future, it’s fine, aren’t all the noble sons of the Capital like this?
If finding a few won renders him unsuitable, then will Pingyang remain unmarried for life?”
“I…I spoke out of turn.”
Noble Consort Yang’s face changed repeatedly, and she could only lower her head.
Jingtai snorted softly, barely discernible, looked at Princess Pingyang, who was staring straight ahead, and said:
“Pingyang, what do you think yourself?”
“I would like to accompany father for a few more years regarding marriage…” Princess Pingyang wanted to refuse but didn’t dare too much, so she could only speak euphemistically.
Jingtai shook his head, speaking in a low voice:
“Won eventually have to marry, Pingyang, you are not young anymore, your younger brothers have begun to take consorts, could it be you want to live in solitude for a lifeti?”
“I…”
“It is also possible not to marry Chen Yuan.”
Unexpectedly, Jingtai continued, but before the joy could bloom in Noble Consort Yang and Princess Pingyang’s eyes, they heard another dilemma.
“Everyone in the Capital knows Pingyang you are proud and aloof, no ordinary man can enter your Dharma Eye, here’s the deal; if you can find a man better than Marquis Wu’an, I will no longer interfere in your marriage.”
Princess Pingyang and Noble Consort Yang’s faces imdiately fell.
A man better than Chen Yuan?
Not to ntion the Capital, even across the world, he could not be found!
In fact, not only surpassing, perhaps not even soone who could be shoulder to shoulder with Chen Yuan could be found.
“Well?”
“Marquis Wu’an is gifted and talented, renowned across the world, unrivaled military rits, proficient in both literature and military, I…cannot find one.” Princess Pingyang let out a long sigh.
It seed sowhat like resigning to fate.
An arm can’t twist the leg, no matter how capable she is, she’s just a Princess, and Jingtai is the ruler of the world, the supre, who embodies heavenly law, it is simply impossible to refuse.
Jingtai’s lips curved into a faint smile:
“I simply have this intention, Pingyang, you may return to the palace and think for a few days, if you are truly unwilling to marry, I will not force you.”
Though he said these words, everyone present knew their underlying aning.
“Thank you, father.”
“Hmm, continue.”
Jingtai waved his hand nonchalantly, sipping the Spiritual Wine lightly.
…
…
The Capital.
Chen Yuan was idly strolling around the Capital, as he had been since yesterday, to see if he could find his Qi Fortune son and thus enhance his Cultivation again.
Of course, he wasn’t devoting all his energy to this, it was more of a pasti, a leisure walk around the Capital.
Today is the Emperor’s family banquet, and while Chen Yuan occasionally activated the Heavenly Eye, he also thought about why Jingtai wanted to bestow marriage?
Simply to woo him?
It surely wasn’t.
But Moluo was quietly healing from his injuries, he didn’t much want to disturb him with such trivial questions.
If Jingtai really issued an Imperial Decree.
Would he refuse?
Or accept?
Mother and daughter?
Thinking of himself as soone who’s done good deeds all his life, it seed only fitting to have such a romantic fortune.
Conspiracy?
He always felt like he had a minor persecutory delusion, thinking that sinister individuals were out to harm him.
All sorts of thoughts swirled continuously in Chen Yuan’s mind.
But if Jingtai really did issue an Imperial Decree, could he refuse?
It was not yet the ti to flip the table!
As he walked, Chen Yuan inadvertently arrived in front of Qingyun Temple, glanced up, recalling what Moluo senior had said before.
