The Kingdom of Marriage: My Stunning Empress

Murong Suheng hurriedly walked over to him.

"My son, meet your father!"

The one who came was Murong Suheng's father, Murong Zhengde, the head of the Murong family's eldest branch!

As soon as Murong Zhengde came in, his face looked gloomy.

He waved his sleeves at Liu Xiantai, who was kneeling on the ground, and said, "Get out!"

Liu Xiantai felt as if he had been pardoned. He quickly used his hands and feet to crawl and roll out.

When only Murong Zhengde and his son were left in the room, Murong Zhengde suddenly raised his hand.

"Snapped!"

Immediately, he slapped Murong Suheng hard on the face.

As if he was not satisfied yet, he raised his foot again and kicked Murong Suheng down hard!

As the saying goes, "Like father, like son." No matter what kind of person Murong Suheng is, his father will only make him worse!

Murong Zhengde angrily pointed at Murong Suheng and cursed, "You useless thing!"

"I've given you all this time to find ways to get close to Yang Pan'er, win her favor, and take her down!"

"And you, what did you do?"

"Right now, the entire Imperial City is madly reporting that Yang Pan'er is the current emperor's only child!"

"Even the Queen Mother has received the news! She has dispatched her trusted eunuchs, who have already arrived at Yang Pan'er's doorstep with the Queen Mother's imperial decree!"

Murong Zhengde was so excited that he even drooled.

If he didn't have only this one son, he would have beaten this useless guy to death by now!

But no matter how angry he was, he knew that beating his useless son would be useless at this moment, so he could only sit down slowly.

Murong Suheng knelt on the ground, his eyes rolling around as he thought of some way to make up for it.

"Father, I know I was wrong, and I will do everything I can to make amends!"

Murong Zhengde didn't even have the energy to scold his useless son, so he ignored him.

Murong Suheng seemed to be afraid that these fathers would abandon him, and kept saying, "Father, although I am useless, this is the best opportunity for our eldest branch to surpass the third branch!"

"Only if my son can have a relationship with Yang Pan'er and become the future empress's lover can he surpass the third branch in power!"

"Father, you absolutely cannot let go of this golden opportunity! Otherwise, after a while, the people from the Third House will be able to leverage Eldest Cousin's influence in the military to completely overshadow our First House, seize our First House's seal, and control the entire Murong Family!"

Murong Zhengde pointed at his son and roared, "Shut up!"

"You still need to tell me about this? Do you think I don't know?!"

"If it weren't for you being such a loser, and if you hadn't been able to get Yang Pan'er despite all the chances I've given you, would things have developed to this point?"

"Among the more than a dozen branches of the Murong family, only my first and third branches possess military power. Your second sister is currently guarding the northern border, commanding 100,000 soldiers!"

"But your eldest cousin from the third house also holds military power and leads a hundred thousand troops to guard the east!"

"The two of them are equally powerful. If you can't become the man by the side of the future empress, the advantage between us and the third branch will be infinitely narrowed. This is my biggest worry!"

"Your second sister is so outstanding, but it's a pity that she's a girl! Otherwise, how could it be your turn!?"

At this moment, Murong Suheng's brain was also spinning at high speed!

He quickly said to Murong Zhengde, "Father, let's tell Auntie about this!"

Murong Zhengde cursed, "Your aunt has spies all over the capital!"

"Do you still need him to tell you about this?"

"Thank goodness your aunt has always stood by us. I think she has already taken action by now. You and I can only wait and see for good news!"

Half an hour later, the Queen Mother arrived at her bedroom.

"The Queen is here!"

Following the shout of a eunuch, Queen Murong Yanran, dressed in an elegant and luxurious palace dress, swaying her graceful figure, came to the front of the empress dowager, surrounded by a group of palace maids and eunuchs.

"I pay my respects to the Queen Mother."

Murong Yanran's voice sounded particularly gentle and charming, and slowly entered Tushan Weihong's ears.

Tushan Weihong lay on her side on the couch as usual, supporting her head with her hand.

Although she looked a bit old, she still had an enchanting figure, with lines as smooth as silk, which made Murong Yanran, a woman, feel envious when she saw her.

There was a faint smile on the empress dowager's delicate face.

She looked at her nominal daughter-in-law, the current queen Murong Yanran, and said softly.

"The emperor has been seriously ill these past few days and has been bedridden. The empress is not by his side to take care of him, so why did she come to me?"

Murong Yanran said in her uniquely pleasant voice, "Empress Dowager, I heard that you found Concubine Zhen's child?"

Tushan Weihong responded: "Yes, I have found it."

"I have also sent my most trusted person to bring her back to the palace. They will be here soon."

"Your Majesty has arrived just in time. Why don't you sit down and have a look with me to see if this child is indeed the one that was lost outside the imperial mausoleum by Concubine Zhen?"

Since Murong Yanran has already come here, she doesn't plan to continue playing dumb with the Queen Mother.

She said bluntly, "Empress Dowager, you and I are both pitiful people who have lived in the deep palace for a long time."

"Although she is of noble status, she is actually just a tool placed by the family in this secluded palace."

"What you and I have done is nothing more than to continue the prosperity of our family. As for those unnecessary things, I will not show off my skills in front of you."

"You are the elder. I came here today to listen to the Queen Mother's opinion."

"I have already sent people to investigate this child thoroughly. It is indeed the child that Concubine Zhen lost. He looks exactly like Concubine Zhen and has the same personality as Concubine Zhen. He is kind, gentle, and easy to control."

Tushan Weihong gently brushed his long eyelashes.

In his eyes, as deep as the starry sky, there is a look of inquiry.

She stared at Murong Yanran and suddenly realized that after just a short while, Murong Yanran seemed to have changed a bit.

In the past, Murong Yanran had always been a secretive person, and liked to play tricks behind the scenes.

In front of men, she is a foxy girl with nine tails.

And among the crowd of women, there is a poisonous snake hiding in the grass, ready to take people's lives at any time!

The Queen has always been very reserved, but this is the first time she has spoken so bluntly.

Tushan Weihong also slowly sat up at this time, folded his slender hands together, and placed them on his slender legs.

She smiled and said, "Since the Queen has said so, I won't beat around the bush."

"The princess has been found, and my Xuanyuan Kingdom now has an heir. How about you and I join forces and overcome all difficulties to push her to the throne?"

Murong Yanran nodded and said, "Your Majesty is the elder, and the younger generation naturally has to listen to the elders' words. I will obey you in everything."

"However, I have a small condition, as long as Your Majesty agrees."

"Your Highness, along with the entire Murong family, will do our utmost to assist the new emperor in ascending the throne!"

coming!

Tushan Weihong knew that the next sentence was the real purpose of the Queen coming to her bedroom today!

She smiled faintly: "Queen, please speak, I am listening."

Murong Yanran still appeared humble and respectful in front of the Queen Mother, graceful and elegant.

She said, "Your Majesty, the princess was once married among the common people."

"However, her newlywed husband died suddenly before the mobile room, so the princess remains a chaste woman."

"But the princess has been married before. Even if she ascends the throne, the ministers in the court will inevitably gossip."

"To silence these gossips, I suggest that upon the princess' return to the palace, an imperial decree be immediately issued to confer the title of Crown Princess. She can choose a good husband and then marry!"

"After the wedding, he will ascend the throne as emperor soon!"
