Chapter 22 Marriage of Wives and Concubines
"I haven't even said which daughter it is, yet you refuse!"
"I won't marry anyone -" Sikong Yu was resolute and stood up in a swish, preparing to leave at any time.
Seeing this, the queen changed her tone and said: "Yu'er, after so long, why don't you give up? Xiao Zhao has a low status. You will be the one to inherit the throne in the future. With her qualifications, with..."
"Queen Mother, I don't want anyone but her!"
The queen knew her son's temperament, so she tried to persuade her with good words, "If it doesn't work out, my mother will promise you to let Xiao Zhao be your maid. With her status, the concubines will be in high positions!"
"But my son doesn't want to wrong her!" Xiao Zhao is his personal maid, gentle and considerate, quiet and kind, and takes good care of him. If he hadn't wanted to give Xiao Zhao an identity, he wouldn't have been in a stalemate with the queen.
"Yu'er, how can there be so many happy things in this world? If you want to gain something, you have to sacrifice something. Xiao Zhao is a good child, and the queen mother likes her very much, but she comes from a humble background and cannot hold a big position..."
At this point, the queen sighed, "You need someone who can help you, instead of being greedy for a little tenderness."
Sikong Yu didn't answer, and was torn in his heart. On the one hand, he felt that what the queen said was somewhat reasonable, but on the other hand, it didn't seem like he had let down Xiao Zhao's infatuation.
"What's more, the Queen Mother also sent someone to inquire. Although Chu Wan's identity has changed, she behaves dignifiedly and is loved by Mr. Chu. Compared with the so-called biological daughter, marrying Chu Wan is not necessarily a bad thing!"
"So? My father means to point Chu Wan to me? But mother, Chu Wan's true identity is just a farmer's daughter, compared to Xiao Zhao..."
"But Mr. Chu didn't send her back. She is still the daughter of the Chu family, and her surname is still Chu! Yu'er, I know what you mean, but what the mother wants to say is that no matter what the real situation is, her current identity is
The most important thing!"
Seeing that he no longer spoke but was deep in thought, the queen continued: "At worst, my mother will promise you that you will marry your wife and concubines together! As for who you favor in the future, that is your business!"
Facing those sincere eyes, Si Kong Yu knew that he could not escape this time and had to give an explanation to the queen. After a moment of silence, he compromised and said: "Everyone who obeys the queen is the one!"
As soon as Sikong Yu let go, the queen's eyes lit up, "That's right, Yu'er. When you inherit the throne in the future, you will have three thousand beauties in the harem. Do you want any beauties? Maybe by then, Xiao Zhao will have been abandoned by you.
It’s in the back of my head!”
No one can say what will happen in the future, but Si Kong Yu understands that if he ignores the queen now, he may not even be able to save Xiao Zhao's life.
He had been in a stalemate with the queen for long enough about Xiao Zhao.
It is better to have the opportunity to officially take Xiao Zhao by your side now than to have nothing in the future.
Although his status seems to be noble and powerful, sometimes everything does not go as planned and everything can be accomplished.
The wind in late autumn is very cool, and the stars are dotted in the night sky.
Not long after Chu Yunxi lay down after washing herself, she heard someone knocking on her door, "Who is it?"
"it's me!"
Xiang Wan?
Chu Yunxi stood up, and as soon as he opened the door, he saw Xiang Wan was so frightened that his face turned pale, and he jumped far away like a spring, "Ghost! Ah - don't come over, don't come over!"
