Chapter 368 One by one, they don't put me in their eyes!
After the people from Duke Cao's residence left, Li Chongyang sat calmly for a long time. Finally, unable to suppress the anger in his heart, he stretched out his hand and swept the tea set on the desk at hand to the ground.
There was the sound of utensils falling to the ground and breaking. Tea flowed out of it, and the ground soon became wet.
Li Chongyang clenched his palms: "What a great Duke Cao's mansion! What a wonderful Duke Cao's mansion!"
Li Chongyang was really angry. He just wanted to marry a princess, but it was so difficult.
His Majesty said that he didn't care and would not grant him a marriage decree either way. Marquis Changning disagreed and would rather keep Gu You in prison for the rest of his life, or even let Gu You become a nun, than marry Gu You to him.
He wanted to find a highly respected person to help broker a match and get the Changning Marquis to relent, but Mrs. Rong Guogong disagreed and felt that Gu You had a serious brain disease and was not worthy of being a princess.
Now the Duke of Cao is unwilling to help, saying that Gu You has a bad character and is unfit to be a princess.
Li Chongyang was really angry to death.
I was so angry that I wanted to throw something to vent my anger.
Zeng Qing saw that he was angry, and everyone in the room was silent, so he could only persuade him: "Your Majesty, since the Duke of Cao is unwilling to help, it is better to find another family."
"Change! Change it to anything!" Li Chongyang's face was gloomy, "That means I am nothing now and only have a title, and none of them take me seriously!"
If he was so powerful, how dare Rong Guogong and Cao Guogong not put him in their eyes and just refuse him? It's not like what he says is what he says. It's an honor for them to be able to work for him!
Mrs. Rong Guogong also scolded him, saying that he was mentally ill, and he wanted to marry a mentally ill person like Gu You.
Li Chongyang has grown up, and this is the first time he has been criticized and scolded!
Zeng Qing actually felt that Li Chongyang should not marry Gu You. After all, it is difficult to say whether the theory of fortune really exists. Gu You has a bad reputation and seems to have a bad mind. Being a princess may not bring any help to Li Chongyang.
On the contrary, it is a drag.
According to Zeng Qing's idea, it would be best for Li Chongyang to marry a princess who is smart enough to be able to take on the position of princess, and who has a good family background and can help Li Chongyang.
In terms of identity, it is best to be like Rong Qing from Duke Rong's Palace, Cao Sijin from Duke Cao's Palace, Qin Ruyue from Duke Qin's Palace, Lu Xueting from Duke Lu's Palace, or even Xu Pingting from Xuanping Hou's Palace.
Gu You's identity is barely enough, but her mind is really not very good.
Seeing that the prince was so angry, Zeng Qing said nothing and just stood aside quietly.
Li Chongyang lost his temper, and after he calmed down, Zeng Qing was asked to come in and clean up. The atmosphere in the room was a bit condensed, but not long after, someone came and said that Concubine Shen was here.
Li Chongyang took a deep breath and had to suppress his anger to face Concubine Shen.
Concubine Shen came with Shen Mingzhu. At this time, Shen Mingzhu was wearing a Xiangfei-colored dress. She had a graceful figure and only two gold hairpins on her head. She was elegant, refined and noble.
When Li Chongyang saw her, his expression changed again, and he was quite troubled: "What are you doing here?"
Concubine Shen always wanted him to marry Shen Mingzhu and become his concubine. She even went to the emperor to ask for an imperial edict. Fortunately, the emperor did not agree. She felt that the Shen family was not good and could easily lead him astray. If the imperial edict was really issued, he would probably be in trouble even more.
I'm going to have a headache.
Li Chongyang has no intention of marrying the daughter of the Shen family of the Beiting Hou Mansion. Regardless of whether his mother is from the Shen family, if he wants to use the Shen family, with this relationship, the Shen family will only stand by his side, so if he marries One is really not necessary.
Moreover, he already has a concubine in his house who is a concubine from the Shen family.
More importantly, the Beiting Hou Mansion is really not good enough. It only has a title but no military power, so it is of little use.
"What are you doing?" Shen Taifei couldn't help but said after hearing this, "I invited your cousin here to accompany me. Why are you talking to your cousin like this?"
Li Chongyang shut up. He was very annoyed now and didn't want to argue with his mother. Otherwise, it would be really annoying for her to cry. In the end, he had to say: "Since my cousin is here to accompany my mother and concubine, please worry more."
Shen Mingzhu showed a smile: "It is Mingzhu's duty to accompany her aunt. My cousin has already eaten. Mingzhu just made some food. My aunt felt good after eating it, so she specially came to give it to her cousin. I hope my cousin will not dislike it. .”
After saying this, Li Chongyang couldn't help but refuse, so he had to ask her to keep the things: "Thank you very much, cousin."
Shen Mingzhu smiled and asked the maid to deliver the suitcase without leaving it for long, then she said goodbye and left.
Concubine Shen was a little puzzled by this and couldn't help but ask her on the way: "Why don't you talk to your cousin more?"
Shen Mingzhu said with a smile: "I saw that my cousin's face looked bad. I thought something happened, so I won't bother him. He's at home anyway. I can see him whenever he wants."
"That's true." When Mrs. Shen heard what she said, she smiled and said, "You can stay here longer and let your cousin know how good you are. My aunt arranged for you to live in Tonghua Garden. What do you think?"
Tonghua Garden is the courtyard where the royal concubine lives. Concubine Shen used to live there. After her husband died, she moved to Luohua Garden, and Tonghua Garden became empty. When Gu You came here in the past, , and lived in Tonghua Court.
Tung flower, tung flower, sycamore flower.
As the saying goes, Fengqi Wutong is the residence of the Phoenix.
The Prince of Huainan dared to give this courtyard such a name, probably because he wanted to be like the phoenix that lives in Wutong.
Shen Mingzhu paused slightly, then showed a hesitant expression: "I'm afraid this is inappropriate. If my cousin finds out, I'm afraid he will be angry..."
"What's there to be angry about?" Concubine Shen laughed, "Just say it was arranged by me. If he has any objections, let him come to me! Don't worry, Mingzhu, my aunt will definitely let you become the princess."
"If you hadn't been so young a few years ago, I should have let you get married long ago."
When Shen Mingzhu heard this, she thought of the concubine in her fourth uncle's family. She was only sixteen years old this year, and it was time for marriage. She was still a little girl a few years ago. Otherwise, how could she be allowed to enter the house as a concubine? Where is the palace?
If she wants to marry, she must get rid of this person first. Otherwise, the two sisters in the same house are both the main concubine and the side concubine, which will make people laugh if she tells it. Moreover, she has occupied her cousin for so many years, so she should be content.
Shen Mingzhu smiled: "Speaking of which, I may not have seen my second sister for a long time, so why not go see her."
Concubine Shen hurriedly said: "Where can I let you find her? I will send someone to call her over and let her come to see you. Who is she? If you weren't still young, how would you have the chance to fall into my arms?" The gate of Nanwang Mansion."
