Chapter 138 I need to see Yuan Ying’s death
Murong Xuanyi came to the Imperial Observatory early the next morning. Puyang Zhou was a little surprised, but with the experience of Wei Ruchi, he had roughly guessed his purpose.
He hurriedly stepped forward, bowed, and said respectfully, "Greetings to His Royal Highness Prince Jing!"
Seeing this, Murong Xuanyi quickly reached out to help Puyang Zhou up, his tone full of gentleness and humility: "My lord, there is no need to be so polite. I came here today to ask for something."
After saying this, he paused, his eyes flashing with expectation and seriousness: "This king would like to ask you to use the art of astronomy to select an auspicious day for this king in the near future. I wish to obtain the blessing of heaven and earth, and help this king to have a hundred years of happiness together."
Puyang Zhou's eyes twitched slightly. He was right. However, he remained calm and nodded slightly, agreeing.
Puyang Zhou took out the calendar and the hexagram plate. He took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and gently stroked the lines of the hexagram with his fingers, silently reciting the ancient blessing words in his heart. Then he carefully flipped through the calendar, his fingertips gently swiped across the pages, as if looking for the most delicate balance between heaven and earth. The sunlight shone through the window lattice and sprinkled on his focused face, adding a touch of warm glory to this solemn moment.
"Your Highness, according to the observations and calculations of the Imperial Astronomical Observatory, the 28th of next month is the most auspicious day in the near future." Puyang Zhou's voice was steady and powerful, and every word seemed to contain the will of heaven and earth. "On this day, the stars will meet, the sun and the moon will shine together, and it is the best time to conclude a good marriage and spend the rest of your life together."
A hint of joy flashed in Murong Xuanyi's eyes, and he bowed deeply. "Thank you for your help, my Lord. On the 28th of next month, I will tie the knot with Lord Yuan. May heaven and earth be witnesses, and bless us to have a long-lasting love and live together till old age."
After he finished speaking, he took out a handful of banknotes from his bosom and said, "It's just a small token of my appreciation. Please accept it, sir."
Puyang Zhou saw this and quickly waved his hand to refuse, with a firm attitude: "Your Highness, you are too polite. This is my duty. How dare I accept such a generous gift from Your Highness? Moreover, it is my honor to select an auspicious day for Your Highness and Lord Yuan. I wish Your Highness and Lord Yuan a happy marriage, and I will be satisfied."
Murong Xuanyi chuckled and said, "You don't have to refuse. Just accept it. It's just a small token of my love. If my father asks about when the wedding date will be unsuitable, I hope you can mention today's choice at the right time."
Although Puyang Zhou had many puzzles and doubts in his heart, he had to obey considering that Prince Jing was very likely to be the future crown prince. He carefully put away the banknotes, knowing that this was not just a simple thank-you gift, but also a trust and entrustment from Prince Jing.
"Your Highness, rest assured. I will keep my mouth shut and will never reveal a single detail." Puyang Zhou promised solemnly.
Murong Xuanyi nodded with satisfaction. He knew Puyang Zhou very well and trusted his ability and character. He patted Puyang Zhou's shoulder and said earnestly, "Sir, thank you for your help. I will definitely reward you handsomely on the day of my wedding."
Puyang Zhou bowed, respectfully and sincerely, "Your Highness, you are too kind. It is an honor for me to serve you.
With Murong Xuanyi's departure, the Imperial Observatory returned to peace. Puyang Zhou looked at his departing figure, secretly speculating on the deep meaning behind His Royal Highness Prince Jing's move, which was difficult for him to grasp.
Murong Xuanyi returned hurriedly from the Imperial Observatory and rushed into the palace without even taking a breath.
"Your son pays homage to His Majesty the Father. May your father be in good health and live a long life!" He bowed, his words full of respect.
Emperor Kang Ren narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Murong Xuanyi, frowning slightly, "Old Five is here."
He deliberately asked, "Is there anything important you want to discuss today?"
Murong Xuanyi's face was solemn, and he spoke frankly: "Father once mentioned in the court that he wanted to grant marriage between me and Lord Yuan, but three days have passed and I still haven't received the imperial decree from father. I know father is very busy, but I am already 27 years old, and it is time for me to start a family and career. I hope father will fulfill my wish."
Emperor Kang Ren stared at Murong Xuanyi for a moment, and finally spoke slowly: "Old Fifth, your marriage with Yuan Ying is not a good match. I intend to make you the crown prince, I hope you understand."
His tone was solemn as he continued, "If you marry Yuan Ying, if she has other intentions one day, it might become a big problem."
Murong Xuanyi was horrified when he heard this, and he immediately knelt on the ground, touching his forehead to the ground, and swore his loyalty: "Father, please understand that I have never coveted the throne. I only wish to assist you and rule the world together to repay your great grace."
Emperor Kang Ren was silent for a moment, then said, "I know your heart, but time is not forgiving, this country must eventually have someone to inherit it."
He changed the subject and said in a resolute tone: "I will keep my promise regarding the marriage. However, Yuan Ying cannot be kept, as he will become a disaster for Daxia in the future. When you ascend the throne, all the women in the world can be yours."
Then, a hint of ruthlessness flashed in Emperor Kang Ren's eyes: "On the wedding night, I must personally witness Yuan Ying's death, and then, my decree to establish the crown prince will be delivered to your palace immediately."
After he finished speaking, he stood up, took a packet of medicine powder, and handed it to Murong Xuanyi: "Xuanyi, for the sake of the overall situation, we have to do it."
"Go down, I will choose an auspicious day and grant you marriage."
Murong Xuanyi had never expected that he would set up many difficulties, but he had never expected that he would use such cruel means to use the country as bait. He actually wanted him to personally end the life of the person he loved. Murong Jie was really good.
He gritted his teeth secretly, saluted and said: "I will obey your order and live up to your expectations." After that, he turned and left, with a cold light flashing in his eyes and the determination to kill.
……
"You just drink all day long. How come you don't drink yourself to death?" Princess Dunchun said to Song Yanshu angrily.
Song Yanshu's eyes were a little dazed: "Mother, I feel sad. She is getting married."
Princess Dunchun said unhappily, "Even if I were Yuan Ying, I wouldn't choose you."
"Look at yourself. You live a life of drunkenness and dreaming all day long. Where is the ambition that a man should have? If she really marries you, she will have wasted her life." Princess Dunchun's words were filled with a hint of regret.
Song Yanshu looked at Princess Dunchun in surprise. "Mother, how did you know that?"
Princess Dunchun glared at him angrily and said, "I'm not blind or deaf. You have too high standards. There are only a few extraordinary women like Yuan Ying in the world. Since she has chosen Xuan Yi, you should let her go calmly and give each other dignity."
She sighed softly, her eyes softened a bit, "Shu'er, there are not many extraordinary women, but there are many good women in the world. How about we change one? You are my only son, and the Song family only has you. Do you have the heart to let the Song family die?"
Song Yanshu laughed bitterly, holding the wine pot and taking a few more gulps, "But I only like her..."
Princess Dunchun felt distressed and helpless when she saw this. She knew her son's character and knew that once he made up his mind about something, it would be difficult for him to change it.
But seeing him like this, she suddenly became furious and said angrily, "I don't care, I want a daughter-in-law, I want a grandson... find her quickly, or you won't be allowed to enter the Song family again."
Song Yanshu picked up the bottle and walked out the door. Princess Dunchun realized what was happening and quickly chased after him, asking, "Where are you going?"
"I'll find you a daughter-in-law and a grandson..."
