Duanmuyan paused, and there was a struggle in his eyes.
Lin Chu raised his eyes and saw that there was only a middle-aged man sitting on the main seat in the middle, it was Hua Yi, the Prince Consort.
He was tall and slender, with a slender beard, and stared at Duanmuyan with a calm face. He was startled when he saw Lin Chu, and then anger surged in his eyes.
"You are getting more and more outrageous. Why did you bring outsiders here?!"
"The imperial edict has arrived!"
Hua Yi's scolding ended with a high-pitched and resonant feminine voice.
Everyone knelt down and kowtowed: "Long live my emperor!"
Zhang Fu, the chief minister of the first rank, read the imperial edict in his hand: "By destiny, the emperor decreed that Duan Muyan, the daughter of the eldest princess, comes from a well-known family, is virtuous and obedient..."
"I would like to grant Princess Rongmin the title of Princess Rongmin. It is your honor!"
"Thank you Lord for your grace!"
Lin Chu took a deep breath, the emperor... actually made Duanmuhe a princess?
Although she bears her mother's surname, she is not the emperor's biological daughter, and becoming a princess is already a blessing. There is no possibility of becoming a princess!
Zhang Fu on the other side rolled up the imperial edict with a smile, looked over the smiling Hua Yi and looked at Duanmuyan: "Congratulations to the princess, congratulations to the princess. Please accept the edict, princess."
"Thank you, father-in-law." Duanmuyan accepted the imperial edict without any joy in his eyes.
"Princess, please wake up quickly. You are our great hero in Xi Chu." The old eunuch smiled brightly.
Lin Chu raised his eyebrows, feeling that these words had profound meaning.
Hua Yi smiled and came forward to greet Zhang Fu, then took him to the side hall for tea.
From beginning to end, Muyan stood silently, like an outsider.
"What's going on?" Lin Chu looked at her.
"Ha." Duanmuyan glanced at the imperial edict in his hand, raised his hand and threw it away: "The emperor's uncle wants... to let me go and get married. I won't!"
The marriage is... quite surprising. If this is the reason, Duanmuyan's status as a princess is reasonable.
Lin Chu suddenly felt that coming here today was... impulsive.
"That princess, I..."
"I don't want to marry to the Eastern Tang Dynasty. I just want to be with Brother Chu." Duanmuyan grabbed Lin Chu's sleeve: "Brother Chu, please take me away. I heard that Jingshui Village is very far from the capital. I will go back to Jingshui with you.
Go to the water village!"
"Shut up!" Hua Yi opened the curtain and entered the room, her eyes as cold as ice: "Don't you feel ashamed to say such a thing, your majestic princess?"
"Shame?" Duanmuyan sneered: "When you suggested to the emperor that you want to send me to the Eastern Tang Dynasty, did you feel ashamed? When you pushed a woman out to die for your own safety, did you feel ashamed!"
Lin Chu's eyes were filled with admiration. A marriage or anything like that was a trampling on a woman's dignity. She didn't expect that the unruly little witch was actually quite bloody.
"At the beginning, you knew that I liked Brother Zhi, but you wanted to marry me to Brother Chu." Duanmuyan gritted his teeth: "Now that I have finally accepted this fate, you turned your back and wanted to send me to Dongtang again! You think I am
What?"
"The righteousness of family and country is always higher than the love of children!"
"Heh." Duanmuyan sneered: "They are all excuses. When my father was doing this, did he ever think about the promise he made to his mother?"
Perhaps Duanmuyan was too excited, and the red plum blossom earrings stirred in the air, sending out fine red light like blood, which pierced into Hua Yi's eyes, and her heart felt a dull pain for a moment!
"Yan'er, the Hua family has become worse than before in recent years, and I can't do anything about the marriage. Fortunately now... you are still my daughter. I have something to ask you."
Hua Yi raised his head and stared at Duanmu Yan for a moment: "You are the only daughter of my father and Jin Ming. After you left, have you ever thought about how to be filial to your father and grandmother?"
