"I'll find out after I take it." Chu Han looked calm and stood up to tidy up.
Xie Yao also stood up and left the table.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Eunuch Liu has arrived with a message and asked if the Princess's diagnosis and treatment have been completed so that Your Majesty can go out to receive the message." Shan Quan opened the door and came in to report.
"The diagnosis and treatment have been completed. I am going out to receive the order." Chu Han walked out with a deep look in his eyes and a cold expression on his face.
Xie Yao followed behind expressionlessly, feeling indifferent and discordant with Chu Han.
When Eunuch Liu saw Chu Han, he immediately stepped forward and said, "I have met His Royal Highness King Han."
"Eunuch Liu, there is no need to be polite, you can pass on the order." Chu Han nodded slightly with a cold expression.
"Your Majesty has your orders. His Royal Highness, King Han, is seriously injured and has not recovered yet. You can just stand and receive the order. Everyone else will kneel down to receive the order." Liu Gonggong said, already carrying an aura, and then slowly unfolded the imperial edict.
"Thank you for your understanding, Father." Chu Han thanked him.
When the others heard this, they all knelt down.
Eunuch Liu cleared his throat and said in a sharp voice: "By God's blessing, the emperor has issued an edict! Today, King Han is seriously injured and has not recovered. It has damaged his roots and needs to rest. It is not appropriate to talk about marriage anymore! Therefore, I decree to temporarily withdraw the marriage grant.
, wait until King Han recovers from his injuries before making a decision, I appreciate this!"
As soon as the words fell to the ground, there was silence in the courtyard.
Chu Han's expression was still deep and cold, and there was no change, but his fists in his sleeves clenched suddenly, and he felt a little excited!
It’s done! It’s finally done!
The hard work over the past few days has finally paid off!
Xie Yao was also overjoyed, it was done!
Sure enough, neither Emperor Zhaochu nor Princess Minghui could escape the word "heir".
She glanced at Chu Han, who happened to turn his head. Their eyes met, they smiled calmly, and then returned to normal.
Wu Peiya looked at the prince and princess worriedly. She happened to see such a scene and was shocked in her heart!
The moment when they looked at each other and smiled, they looked very harmonious. Where there was no sign of reconciliation, it was clearly...
She suddenly understood!
Could it be that the prince and the princess never had any emotional discord at all?
Everyone else looked at Chu Han subconsciously, with worry in their eyes.
His Royal Highness, King Han, had just been seriously injured, and the emperor issued an order to cancel the engagement. This was no different from adding insult to injury! It’s just that the order to add insult to injury came from the emperor, and no one dared to say anything.
The emperor is so heartless, it seems that the emperor has completely given up on King Han.
Seeing Chu Han's cold expression and looking very disappointed, Eunuch Liu reminded him, "King Han, it's time to thank you and accept the order."
Everyone sighed inwardly, the prince had been shocked and lost his mind.
The prince is so pitiful!
"My dear father, thank you for your kindness." Chu Han bowed slightly as a salute, and then took the imperial edict from Eunuch Liu, "Thank you, Eunuch Liu."
"King Han's words are serious. Now that the imperial edict has been delivered, I will resign first. I still have to go to Zhongyong Hou Mansion, and then go back to the emperor as soon as possible. Time is tight." Eunuch Liu said with a smile.
I also sighed in my heart, why is the fate of King Han so bumpy? Hey, what a good marriage!
Chu Han's eyes moved slightly and he asked Eunuch Liu: "Zhongyong Hou Mansion? Is Eunuch Liu also going to deliver the order?"
Eunuch Liu is the emperor's personal father-in-law, and he will never run around when nothing happens.
"No, the emperor ordered the old slave to go over and summon Prince Hong to the palace." Eunuch Liu shook his head gently.
Chu Han's face darkened, "Hong Ye has a naughty temper. I remember that Hong Ye was the first to bear the brunt of the people my father did not want to see. I am a little curious as to why my father would take the initiative to summon Hong Ye."
Eunuch Liu looked troubled, "Your Highness, King Han, please don't embarrass me. I don't dare to speculate on the holy will."
Chu Han lowered his eyes and said nothing.
Xie Yao thought for a while and asked: "I wonder if Princess Minghui has ever met her father in the palace?"
Eunuch Liu immediately looked at Xie Yao unexpectedly, hesitated for a moment, and then nodded.
Xie Yao understood in her heart and was surprised at the same time.
Could it be that Emperor Zhaochu's summoning Hong Ye to the palace was related to Princess Minghui?
Chu Han also narrowed his eyes to cover up the surprise.
When Eunuch Liu saw this, he said goodbye and quickly retreated.
After Eunuch Liu left, Chu Han glanced at Xie Yao, motioned to follow him into the house, and then returned to the room.
Xie Yao knew what Chu Han was going to say about Hong Ye, so she followed him in.
As soon as the door was closed, Chu Han spoke first, "Why do you think my father wanted to see Hong Ye?"
Xie Yao thought for a while and narrowed her eyes deeply, "Father has always acted prudently and would not cancel the engagement first and ignore Princess Minghui. It is very likely that arrangements have been made for Princess Minghui."
Chu Han looked deep, "I think so too."
…
Royal Palace.
Hong Ye was on his way to the royal study room quickly.
When he saw Eunuch Liu in the Hou Mansion, he was very surprised. This was the first time that the emperor had ever sent someone to the Hou Mansion to summon him!
When I asked Eunuch Liu why the emperor had summoned him, Eunuch Liu said nothing, which made him feel as if he had been scratched by a cat.
Entering the imperial study, he bowed and saluted, "I have met the emperor, Hongye."
Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Princess Minghui beside her, and her heart moved slightly.
What is going on? Princess Myung Hye has also entered the palace?
"Pingshen." Emperor Zhaochu glanced at Hong Ye and said in a low voice, "Do you know why I came to you?"
"I don't know, please let the emperor make it clear." Hong Ye bowed his head and frowned slightly. The emperor asked him to come, but why did he ask him if he knew something?
strangeness.
"I remember that for the sake of the relationship between you and Princess Minghui, you stopped me from granting a marriage more than once, and even made a fuss in the palace! Although it is ridiculous, I also see your sincerity. In this case, I will let you go
According to my wish, Princess Minghui will be granted marriage to you!" After Emperor Zhaochu finished speaking, he looked at Hong Ye with a deep look.
When Hong Ye heard this, he was instantly stunned!
Marriage grant? Princess Minghui?
No! Absolutely not!
"Your Majesty, this must not be done! Since Your Majesty has already given Princess Minghui's marriage to Prince Han, you cannot change it at will just to take into account your feelings." Hong Ye declined subconsciously.
"Prince Han is in ill health. It is not appropriate to talk about marriage for the time being. I have decreed to terminate the engagement." Emperor Zhaochu said calmly, his eyes falling on Hong Ye's face without missing any expression.
Hong Ye frowned and immediately knelt down on his knees, "Please, Your Majesty, please take back your order! I have thought about it these past few days. Since Princess Minghui belongs to King Han, it is inappropriate for me to make such a fuss in the palace, so please
The emperor punishes."
"But your Majesty, please think twice about granting a marriage!"
Emperor Zhaochu's face darkened, and he unleashed his coercion crazily, making the atmosphere in the huge imperial study condense. "Didn't you say that you and Princess Minghui are in love and want to get married eventually?"
"That's just my one-sided statement!" Hong Ye's expression tightened and he immediately explained.
