Chapter 362; I don’t agree
In the face of absolute benefits, he put aside the disgust and dissatisfaction in his heart without hesitation.
"As far as I know, Princess Wanfu is already pregnant and is rumored to be engaged."
"Your Highness, this palace is just short of a mistress."
Hearing this, Prince Ning was completely stunned.
Yes, for the sake of benefit, he could compromise and try to please Lu Yaoyao.
But Zeng Guang actually asked him to marry Lu Yaoyao. This.
He was conflicted at first. In the past years, he was often told by his mother what kind of woman he should look for in the future.
The first point is to have a prominent family background, so that you can be worthy of him and be able to give him a lot of help.
Let him marry Lu Yaoyao, no, absolutely not, she is just a peasant girl, a peasant girl who was abandoned by her biological father and lived on the farm for many years.
She doesn't have the gentle temperament of a scholarly woman that he wants at all.
Especially when Lu Yaoyao didn't give him face, she still remembers Lu Yaoyao's indifferent attitude.
Why would a mere peasant girl dare to treat his prince like this?
"Your Highness, although Princess Wanfu was born low, her current energy is not small."
"If you can get her help, you will not only get the position of crown prince, but even after you ascend the throne in the future, you will definitely leave a mark in the history books."
Prince Ning could naturally think of these things, but he really couldn't accept the idea of marrying Lu Yaoyao.
"But she"
"Your Highness, do you feel that you cannot accept having to face someone you don't like in the future?"
Zeng Guang had a smile on his face.
Prince Ning did not deny it.
It is true that he wants to be the emperor, but he is still a young man now and he also has the fantasy of a perfect lover in his heart.
Lu Yaoyao was definitely not his cup of tea. If he really married her, he would never be able to do it for the rest of his life.
"Why is Your Highness so confused?"
"Think about it, if one day you ascend to the throne of the emperor, with so many seats in the Three Palaces and Sixth Courtyard, wouldn't you be able to find a beautiful woman who matches your heart?"
These words were like a revelation, and Prince Ning was immediately stunned.
Yes, why did I suddenly have a short-circuit in my head?
Just let Lu Yaoyao be the princess, can't I still have a concubine?
When he ascends to the throne of the emperor, who has the final say as queen?
"I will go into the palace now to discuss this matter with my mother."
Prince Ning stood up with bright eyes and walked out for two steps. He quickly stopped and turned around to bow to Zeng Guang.
"Thank you sir for reminding me. If it can be done at this time, I will certainly not miss the benefits of sir."
"Then I wish your highness in advance that all your wishes will come true."
From Zeng Guang's point of view, it would not be difficult for Prince Ning to marry Lu Yaoyao.
Not to mention that everyone in the world knew that Prince Ning was the most likely person to become the next emperor of Dongzhou.
Just talking about the position of Princess Ning is attractive enough.
Even if Lu Yaoyao was resistant and unhappy, he was not worried at all. After all, Queen Wang knew how much Prince Ning loved him.
If Queen Wang came forward, it would be very unlikely for Lu Yaoyao to resist.
Of course, what made him so confident was Emperor Hongwen's attitude. Earlier, Emperor Hongwen had planned to bring Lu Yaoyao into the royal family.
It's just that the second prince was chosen at that time. Now that the eldest prince has this intention, as long as the queen exerts her strength, Emperor Hongwen will most likely go along with the situation.
Thinking of this, Zeng Guang touched his beard proudly and returned to his courtyard with a smile.
Prince Ning rushed to the palace in excitement.
He almost walked straight to the outside of Fengqi Palace.
"Your Majesty, Prince Ning would like to see you."
"The emperor is here? Let him come in quickly."
When she heard that King Ning was coming, Queen Wang was very happy. While calling her maids to deliver the message, she also stood up.
"My son, I pay homage to my mother."
"Okay, Your Majesty, come over here and warm yourself up. It's such a cold day and it's still snowing outside. Why did you come to the palace?"
The queen stepped forward and grabbed Prince Ning's hand. Feeling the coldness of his palm, the queen frowned.
"Why don't you bring a heater when you go out?"
"I have left my mother to worry. I have something important to ask for your opinion when I enter the palace."
Hearing this, Queen Wang was startled for a moment, then smiled and said, "How come the emperor got separated from his mother after he left the palace and opened a mansion?"
"Tell me, what's the matter?"
Prince Ning did not speak directly, but turned to look at the people waiting in the room.
"You all stand down first."
All the maids and maids looked at the queen.
After seeing the queen nod again, they bowed and left.
"Your Majesty, what is it that makes you so mysterious?"
"My son wants to marry Lu Yaoyao, the princess of Wanfu County, as Princess Ning."
The moment the Queen heard King Ning's words again, the smile on her face disappeared completely.
He looked at Prince Ning steadily and asked, "Why do you suddenly have such an idea?"
At this time, Prince Ning was fully focused on the benefits Zeng Guang had just mentioned, and did not pay any attention to the changes in the expression on the Queen's face.
He quickly repeated everything Zeng Guang said to him.
"It's a good idea, but I don't agree with it, so you'd better give up this idea."
Surprised, puzzled.
Prince Ning looked at his mother with wide eyes and a dull look on his face.
He didn't understand that this was a completely beneficial thing, so why didn't his mother agree?
He finally made up his mind to compromise and compromise. On the way here, he happily thought about what would happen after he got what he wanted.
"Why?"
"Because your father will not agree, and the benefits you see are not real benefits. Instead, they may become a roadblock for you to miss that position."
Just kidding, although Queen Wang has lived in the palace for a long time, she knows all the major events happening in the capital.
Would she not pay attention to Lu Yaoyao's abilities?
Has she not considered the benefits of getting Lu Yaoyao?
But why she didn't mention it was not because she looked down upon Lu Yaoyao's background, but because Lu Yaoyao was too extraordinary.
She knew the reason why the eldest prince suddenly changed from the most certain crown prince to Prince Ning.
Emperor Hongwen was already afraid of a Zhenguo Duke's mansion, and she didn't dare to think what would happen if Lu Yaoyao was added to the mix.
Perhaps it is light to miss out on the position of crown prince. Maybe Prince Ning may not even be able to keep his title.
"My son, I don't understand."
Prince Ning was still puzzled. It was obviously a great benefit, but why did his mother say the opposite?
Queen Wang immediately expressed all her thoughts.
"That's not right. That's not what you said when I was granted the title of Prince Ning."
"At that time, you said that the father wanted to train his sons."
"Silly boy, this is true, but is it not your father's expedient measure?"
Queen Wang patted Prince Ning's hand and continued, "You know very well how powerful your uncle is now. Can your father rest assured?"
"He was worried, but he couldn't keep delaying it, so he gave you the position of Prince Ning, not only to avoid the position of Crown Prince, but also to use his former title of Prince Ning to appease your uncle and me."
