Chapter 144 What the hell did Wei Mingcheng do?!
Long Yan, Qingyun and Yingge returned to the palace, and Chu Xingluo asked them what they had been doing. The three of them looked at each other, and Long Yan chuckled and said, "Well, my jade pendant is missing, and I asked Qingyun to go find it with me, and Yingge saw it and insisted on following me."
Chu Xingluo glanced at the jade pendant on his waist and asked calmly, "Did you find it?"
"Found it, found it!" Long Yan reached for the jade pendant.
Chu Xingluo didn't say anything else. He guessed that the three of them were going to look for Ye Linglong. Long Yan's jade pendant was left by his biological parents. He treasured it like his eyeballs. He usually tied it around his waist in a tight knot so that it wouldn't fall off. What's more, Qingyun actually brought his iron hammer with him just to look for the jade pendant.
But he didn't expose it. He was usually very indulgent towards Long Yan Qingyun, not to mention that they were venting their anger for his Taotao.
"Your Highness, someone is coming from the palace." At this time, the gatekeeper's servant came running to report, followed by a eunuch, and behind the eunuch were eight guards. This was an unprecedented scene. In the past, the most people who came to deliver oral orders were one eunuch and two others.
Chu Xingluo hurriedly stood up to greet him.
"Your Highness Prince Jing, the Emperor has ordered Princess Jing to enter the palace," said the eunuch.
What is coming will eventually come. Chu Xingluo understood that Emperor Ying wanted to put pressure on Taotao to make her agree.
"Thank you for your help, eunuch. Zhiying and I will go to the palace later." Chu Xingluo said.
"Your Highness Prince Jing, please don't make things difficult for me. The Emperor has instructed that Princess Jing and I enter the palace together." The eunuch said with a smile.
Chu Xingluo looked at the eight guards behind him and nodded: "I'll go call Zhiying out, Qingyun go prepare the carriage."
Then he walked to the backyard and went to the bedroom. He told Xia Taoyuan that the emperor had summoned her to the palace and she had to go immediately.
Xia Taoyuan also guessed what it was. She cleaned up, hugged Chu Xingluo and said, "Luluo, the luckiest thing in my life is meeting you."
"Don't worry, I'm with you. No matter what father says, don't say a word. I'll do it." He was afraid that Xia Taoyuan would be angry again.
The two of them arrived at the front yard, got on the carriage, and followed the eunuch into the palace. Along the way, Chu Xingluo held Xia Taoyuan's hand tightly, fearing that she would have wild thoughts.
Arriving at the door of the imperial study, Chu Xingluo held Xia Taoyuan's hand and was about to go in, but was stopped by Eunuch Liu, "Your Highness, the emperor only allows the princess to go in by herself."
Chu Xingluo was shocked when he heard this. His father was going to force Taotao to agree, but he didn't care. He pulled Xia Taoyuan and was about to rush in, but was stopped by four men in black who came out of the imperial study.
Xia Taoyuan tugged at his sleeve and consoled him, "Don't worry, I'll be in, wait for me!"
After saying this, she stepped into the imperial study and the door closed behind her.
Chu Xingluo looked at the four men in black at the door and could only wait.
"Zhiying greets father." Xia Taoyuan said respectfully.
"Well, is your injury better?" Emperor Ying asked with concern.
"My dear father, Zhiying's injury has completely healed." Xia Taoyuan replied indifferently.
"It's all thanks to you this time." Emperor Ying said. In fact, he was grateful to Xia Taoyuan in his heart. If it weren't for her, the third brother would probably be in great danger.
"This is what Zhiying deserves. I wonder why my father summoned Zhiying to the palace?" Xia Taoyuan didn't want to argue with him anymore and got straight to the point.
"Cough, cough!" Emperor Ying coughed twice.
Xia Taoyuan watched him pretend.
"I don't know if the third brother told you this." Emperor Ying said this and then stopped, thinking about what to say next.
"I wonder what father is referring to? The third brother told me something these days." Xia Taoyuan didn't even raise his eyelids.
"Well, what did he tell you?" Emperor Ying asked curiously.
"He said that the old sow that Qingyun raised outside the city gave birth to eight piglets. He also said that Brother Zhang, who helped Qingyun raise pigs, kept a concubine outside, and when Sister-in-law Zhang found out, she cut off her penis with a knife. He also asked me what I thought about it. I said what could I think about it, Sister-in-law Zhang was right. If it were me, I would not only cut off his penis, but also break his hands and feet, and throw him into the pigsty to eat and sleep with the pigs." Xia Taoyuan began to make up stories.
Emperor Ying frowned, knowing that she was talking nonsense, but also revealed a message, that she didn't want the third son to marry again. It seemed that she knew the purpose of summoning her, "I won't beat around the bush with you, Princess Wanshou of Xiling Kingdom, Ye Linglong, has taken a fancy to the third son, and I have already agreed. I summoned you today to tell you this. She is a princess, and her status is noble, so she can't be a concubine, so after she enters the house, she will be the principal wife just like you, regardless of age. If you have any requests, just ask."
Xia Taoyuan sneered in his heart: You already fucking agreed, why are you still looking for me?
"Will your Majesty agree to whatever I ask for?" Xia Taoyuan looked at Emperor Ying.
"Of course, as long as you agree to let Ye Linglong marry the third brother." Emperor Ying said with a smile. He thought Wei Zhiying would be difficult to convince, but he didn't expect that she would agree after just a little sweet talk.
"Zhiying had been to the battlefield with her own eyes. Seeing my North Vietnamese soldiers being killed, she felt very upset. Thinking of the more than 5,000 villagers from Shilong Village and Yufeng Village who were slaughtered for no reason by the Xiling Kingdom, Zhiying had always been angry and vowed to seek justice for these innocent people who died tragically. But she didn't expect that my father would stop fighting for the three cities." Emperor Ying frowned again when he heard her say that. It was fine at the beginning, but was she blaming herself later?
Xia Taoyuan continued, "Although Zhiying has heard that father hates war the most, she feels that she should not tolerate this kind of threat. We can love peace, but that is based on mutual respect. Xiling Country unilaterally fights when it wants to and stops when it wants to. This is extremely contemptuous and disrespectful to our North Vietnam. Such an opponent is fickle. If you don't agree to it, he will immediately start a war to the death. What if they become greedy and ambitious and ask for this and that? Will father agree to everything?"
"How dare you!" Emperor Ying's face was already very ugly. He was angry that Xia Taoyuan had spoken out his pain point so bluntly. That day in the court, Qin Mu and Ye Ke from the Ministry of War also said the same thing. After weighing the pros and cons, he decided to cease fire and ask for the three cities. In fact, he regretted it afterwards. If he wanted to cease fire, he should have ceased fire. He shouldn't have coveted the three cities. Now, not only was Ye Linglong holding on to him, but even Wei Zhiying mocked him.
Seeing that Emperor Ying was angry, Xia Taoyuan knew that the conversation had to end as soon as possible: "My father just told me to make any requests. I wanted to lead the troops to attack Xiling Kingdom to seek justice for the more than 5,000 villagers who were innocently slaughtered in Shilong and Yufeng villages, and to vent my father's anger. I didn't expect that my father was unwilling. Then I have no request. Of course, I also don't agree with Ye Linglong entering Prince Jing's mansion."
"In that case, get out!" Emperor Ying was really angry.
Xia Taoyuan achieved her goal. You ignored my feelings and agreed to Ye Linglong, and even asked for my opinion. What opinion can I have? Is it useful for me to object? Since I can't change the ending, I'll make you feel bad.
Xia Taoyuan walked out of the imperial study, and Chu Xingluo saw her coming out and hurried towards her.
Eunuch Liu also came over: "Princess Jing, have you agreed to what the emperor said?"
"I didn't say yes." Seeing Eunuch Liu's surprised look, Xia Taoyuan said, "Eunuch Liu, please go in quickly."
Eunuch Liu went into the imperial study, and Chu Xingluo took Xia Taoyuan's hand and asked, "Did the emperor make things difficult for you?"
"It's not that difficult. He said as long as I agree to let you marry Ye Linglong, he would let me make any requests. But when I made them, he didn't agree and told me to get out." Xia Taoyuan said lightly.
"Have you promised father?" Chu Xingluo's voice was a little anxious.
Xia Taoyuan patted him: "No."
"If the emperor agrees to your request, will you agree?" Chu Xingluo looked at Xia Taoyuan angrily.
"I'm very tired now, let's talk about it when we get back." Xia Taoyuan pulled Chu Xingluo and walked out of the palace.
In the imperial study, Emperor Ying picked up the inkstone on the desk and smashed it to the ground, angrily saying, "What the hell is this Wei Mingcheng doing!?"
Eunuch Liu was shocked and hurried to comfort Emperor Ying, but he was muttering in his heart, what did the Princess of Jing say to make the emperor so angry?
