Chapter 289 Seeking trust 1(1/2)
Emperor Lingzhou looked at the hot and enchanting Princess Xiangya, which was more beautiful than the one in the painting. He was only 28 years old and his skin was extremely white. He had even thought about giving her the identity of a noble concubine.
But now, he was so annoyed that he heard Princess Xiangya speak out to the third prince.
"Your Majesty, we Xiangya have rules. The Third Prince not only saved me, but also looked at my appearance in public, so I can only marry the Third Prince."
Princess Xiangya looked at the middle-aged Emperor Lingzhou who was in the upper hand, and thought of the handsome third prince in her mind. Her heart immediately rushed towards the third prince.
The Emperor of Lingzhou asked patiently: "But the third prince already has a princess."
"That ugly monster?" Princess Xiangya blurted out and hummed for a few words, not taking Jiang Yunxu seriously at all: "It can make them separate, and they are not happy at all."
Emperor Lingzhou looked at the vulgar and arrogant Princess Xiangya, and his favor was immediately lost. He said in a deep voice: "Princess Chen was given a marriage by the late emperor, so it was not as easy as the princess said."
"But it is more important for the two countries to have a good relationship, right?" Princess Xiangya said confidently: "Before leaving, my father had instructed me to contribute to an iron ore in Lingzhou."
The word "iron ore" really hit the heart of Emperor Lingzhou. Although he was unhappy, he could not vent his anger at Princess Xiangya.
Helplessly, he could only comfort him first: "I will think about this matter first. The princess is tired of traveling for several days. Why not go back and rest first..."
"I want to live in the Three Princes' Mansion."
As soon as Princess Xiangya spoke, it made the Emperor of Lingzhou feel angry. He knew that Xiangya was a country with open customs and could express love to the person he liked on the streets. In Xiangya, women also have the right to choose a spouse.
The Emperor of Lingzhou tense face and said nothing, and gave a wink at the chief manager beside him. The chief manager understood and immediately stepped forward to Princess Xiangya and said, "The princess doesn't know that the national customs in Lingzhou are rigorous. Girls who are not married cannot go to the man's house casually, and they will be criticized."
This is already said tactfully enough.
After hearing this, Princess Xiangya did not force herself and changed her method: "Then let's live nearest to the Three Princes' Mansion, please give me a house."
The Emperor of Lingzhou breathed tightly.
The chief manager really didn't know how to answer the conversation, so he turned around and looked at the Emperor of Lingzhou.
It took a long time before the other party squeezed out a correct word from his throat.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Princess Xiangya thanked her happily, and her bright smile made Emperor Lingzhou feel more and more dazzling.
So, when Princess Xiangya left, he immediately shouted with a gloomy face: "Call the third brother to me!"
He now seriously suspects that Chu Youqi deliberately unveiled Princess Xiangya.
Half an hour later
Chu Youqi, who was rushing to the sky, looked at the man on the dragon throne with a blue face. His heart sank and knelt on the ground: "My son is paying homage to his father."
After waiting for a long time, the people on the dragon throne did not respond.
So Chu Youqi knelt on the ground for a long time, his knees numb and he didn't dare to move.
Emperor Lingzhou looked at Chu Youqi's eyes becoming more and more sharp, and suddenly said, "Princess Xiangya must not marry you, what do you want to say?"
It's indeed related to Princess Xiangya.
"Father, son minister..." Chu Youqi had already thought about it on the way to come. If he could take this opportunity to give up Jiang Yunxu, why not give it a try?
And it can also get the support of Xiangya, which is a great thing.
"The son-in-law obeyed his father's arrangements and did not dare to have any objections."
The Emperor of Lingzhou sneered. He underestimated his son's ambition and was unconscious for five years. After waking up, he was eager to compete for fame and fortune. He kept moving in private, but unfortunately he was too impatient.
After not getting an answer for a long time, Chu Youqi looked up nervously, but was frightened by a sharp look and immediately bent down and kowtowed: "Father, my son is definitely not deliberately uncovering the princess' veil, it's just an accident."
The Emperor of Lingzhou snorted twice, feeling extremely disappointed with his son and was too lazy to listen to his excuses.
"Princess Chen was given by the late emperor. If she was separated rashly, I'm afraid she wouldn't want to do so. You can explain it yourself."
The Emperor of Lingzhou raised his hand and sent Chu Youqi away. Now when he saw him, he was full of anger.
"Yes, my son is leaving."
Chu Youqi stood up with her body shakingly, bent down and retreated. It was almost evening when she came out. He suddenly smiled. It was also a good choice to marry a princess.
So he hurried back to the Third Prince's Mansion and rushed to find Jiang Yunxu.
This time, when he saw her in Linglongyuan unexpectedly, Chu Youqi's face was unconcealed with joy.
"Jiang Yunxu, let's live with you."
Chu Youqi acted like a charity: "If it weren't for the sake of the princess, I would have just divorced you, an ugly monster. I have been in trouble since I married you..."
Chu Youqi cursed and did not regard Jiang Yunxu as his life-saving benefactor at all. His mind was full of Jiang Yunxu's ugly face.
Jiang Yunxu sneered: "Chu Youqi, this is your attitude of asking me to be with me and divorce. This princess's marriage was given by the late emperor, and she had never done anything wrong. Why should you be with me and divorce?"
In fact, Jiang Yunxu was eager to get along, but she just couldn't stand Chu Youqi's successful appearance.
That's why she wanted to piss him off on purpose.
"If this princess doesn't agree, what about the princess?" Jiang Yunxu said twice: "It's a pity that my good sister Jiang Yan'er. If she knew that the third prince had fallen in love with her, I wonder how sad it would be."
If Jiang Yan'er knew about it, she would be so angry that she would vomit blood.
"You!" Chu Youqi glared at the other party in anger, but his momentum was also restrained a lot. He gritted his teeth and asked, "I know in my heart what you want. You and I are just disgusted with each other. Don't be shameless and take over the identity of the princess."
"You have self-knowledge."
Jiang Yunxu admitted directly without hesitation. She really hated Chu Youqi.
When Chu Youqi saw her attitude, she took a deep breath: "Tell me, what exactly should I do?"
"Add new and old hatreds, I don't want you to have such a good life, but there is a solution to everything."
Chu Youqi sneered coldly, and the king of the copy knew that you were such a despicable villain's eyes.
"Fifty thousand taels of silver, this princess will cooperate with you and take half of the infamy for you, how about it?"
Not to mention 50,000 taels of silver, she would be happy to leave if she was 50,000 taels of silver or if she had paid the money.
But now, the person who is anxious is not me, and Jiang Yunxu doesn't want Chu Youqi to be so free and easy.
"Jiang Yunxu, you vicious woman!" Chu Youqi jumped up in anger. As long as he stayed with Jiang Yunxu, he had never had a good temper.
Jiang Yunxu grinned at him: "Third Prince, that's the princess. Princess Xiangya is Xiangya's legitimate princess. If you marry someone, are you still worried about not having 50,000 taels of silver in the future?"
Chu Youqi was obviously moved by these words. He had just sent someone to investigate Princess Xiangya's background and found that she was very favored in Xiangya, and even the title was enfeoffed with the national title.
"Third Prince, you have to think about it. If Princess Xiangya falls in love with her, you will have no chance."
Jiang Yunxu sighed: "I am better than me, the troublemaker. I can't help you, and the third prince will never have a legitimate son in the future..."
"Legitimate son? Are you worthy?" Chu Youqi sneered, with sarcastic eyes. He would never touch Jiang Yunxu in his life.
This time, Jiang Yunxu was not in a hurry, but started drinking with tea lightly, waiting quietly for Chu Youqi's answer.
When Chu Youqi thought of being disliked in the Prime Minister's Mansion and being insulted by someone pointing at the nose, he could not dissipate his tone, so he said, "You and I have established a document. If you agree, you will be yours. If you deny it, I will not let you go even if you become a ghost."
"good!"
Jiang Yunxu agreed very happily, fearing that Chu Youqi would regret it, so she asked Hongqiao to bring her pen, ink, paper and ink.
Both sides wrote down a document and pressed their handprints. Jiang Yunxu said to Chu Youqi: "I heard that this Princess Xiangya is used to being spoiled at home. The third prince must not take the initiative to provoke others."
Listening to this, Chu Youqi suddenly felt like he was in a trap.
"If all the civil and military officials agreed with the Third Prince, the Third Prince would not be traitorous. All these things were left to me."
Chu Youqi looked cold and said, "You just want to leave me?"
"It's not true, I just want to escape as soon as possible. No matter how good the princess is, it's not as important as her life."
Jiang Yunxu folded the characters and put them in her arms. She had already figured out how to stimulate Princess Xiangya, and made the matter a big deal and tied the two people together as soon as possible.
"Prince, our new neighbor has been moved to the mansion next door." The butler replied, carefully looking at Jiang Yunxu, looking like he was eager to speak but stopped.
Seeing this, Jiang Yunxu could guess with her toes that it was Princess Xiangya who moved here.
"Who is it?"
The housekeeper muttered a few words in Chu Youqi's ear.
Chu Youqi was overjoyed when he heard this, and became more and more proud. He heard the butler say, "The princess comes to visit."
Before Chu Youqi could answer, Jiang Yunxu cleared her throat and reminded: "Sometimes, the easier it is to get, the less you will cherish it. The third prince, you have to think it through."
Chu Youqi squinted his eyes with Jiang Yunxu, but he still refused to see Princess Xiangya.
"But people are waiting in the hall, and the servant dare not stop him..." The butler cried with a sad face. The other party reported his identity as a princess as soon as he came to the door. How dare he stop him?
Jiang Yunxu smiled and said, "Since the visitor comes to the house, of course it is more appropriate for me to entertain you."
This time, Chu Youqi did not stop her.
The housekeeper was also confused. It was obvious that the prince and the princess were still incompatible with each other a few hours ago. Why did the prince actually obey the princess in the blink of an eye?
"I went back to the princess and said that I was busy with official duties and I was not allowed to wait for the time being." Chu Youqi decided to listen to Jiang Yunxu's words and chose to ignore the other party for the time being.
"Yes." The housekeeper had no choice but to do his job accordingly.
In the hall
Princess Xiangya changed her clothes and was still beautiful and charming. She imitated the appearance of a woman in Lingzhou, holding a brocade handkerchief in her hand, walked around the hall nervously, and from time to time she would stick out her head and look at it not far away.
