Shocked! After rebirth, my princess wants to remarry

Chapter 83 Is it so difficult to choose a Crown Princess?

Xiao Jingheng's face was already in a bad mood today. When he heard this old minister advising the emperor to choose a crown princess as soon as possible, his face became so gloomy that it seemed as if water could be squeezed out of it.

"Father, we can discuss this matter later." Xiao Jingheng said with a bow.

The emperor coughed lightly twice and took away the silk handkerchief in his hand. There were some red marks on it. He smiled nonchalantly and said, "Prince, what Minister Wang of Rites said makes sense. You have already performed the coming-of-age ceremony. It is time for you to get married."

"Your Majesty, I believe that common men should establish their careers first and then start a family. I should make some achievements first before talking about other things." Xiao Jingheng declined.

"Your Highness, this is wrong. It is only natural for the royal family to have children and spread out, especially Your Highness. This is a family matter, and even more so a state matter." The Minister of Rites refuted.

Hearing the three words "Crown Princess" today was already torture for Xiao Jingheng. Now that the child was mentioned, his heart felt like it was being cut by a knife. If he continued to listen, he was afraid that he would collapse in the hall today.

By then, these people would not only accuse him of not having a wife and children, but also of the fact that the prince was in poor health.

"I know what I'm doing. The Crown Princess is my wife, the one we'll spend the rest of our lives with. I can't rush things. It's always wrong to force things." The emperor waved his hand, and the matter ended there.

The ministers looked at each other in confusion, not understanding what the Emperor and the Crown Prince, father and son, were up to. In any case, both of them looked unhappy.

However, when marrying a wife, everyone would look for one with good family background and good character. After bringing her into the house, even if the family didn't like her, they would just place her in the main courtyard as a lucky charm. This kind of thing was very common.

What's more, the prince will become the emperor in the future, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he will have three palaces and six courtyards and beauties everywhere. How can it be so difficult for him to find a wife?

The emperor has been preparing for half a year, but there is still no decree?

Could it be that the prince doesn't like women? Then he should have married a wife and kept her at home to hide her from the public.

Xiao Jingheng had absolutely no idea that his aloofness from women had such an outrageous interpretation in some people's minds. After dismissing the court, he was left alone by his father.

"Crown Prince, today the Minister of Rites mentioned the matter of the Crown Princess. What do you think? Are you still planning to drag it out?" After the emperor finished speaking, he coughed lightly twice.

The silk handkerchief was no longer hidden, and Xiao Jingheng saw it directly. "I am afraid that my time is running out. I want to leave in peace, but there is no one by your side or behind you. How can I let my father rest assured?"

Xiao Jingheng was speechless for a moment. He knew that his father's condition had begun to worsen at this time, but he didn't expect that he would vomit blood at this moment. What kind of mood did his father in his previous life have to hold on for more than two years?

Did he want him to give his father a grandson? Or did his father want to see him have a successor?

"Your Majesty, I really don't want to act rashly." Xiao Jingheng said in embarrassment.

"Father is also an experienced person, so he naturally knows what you are thinking. But Prince Jin and his brothers all have children, so you should understand this." The emperor said slowly.

"My son knows."

Although they were both illegitimate sons, Xiao Jingheng was raised by the emperor and the late queen together, so they always favored him emotionally, and he was indeed outstanding.

"Your Majesty, I'm not forcing you to marry a woman you don't like. It's not a good thing to have another couple in the world who are at odds with each other." The Emperor said, "However, there are many couples in the world who marry first and then cultivate their feelings. Over time, they will eventually find a mutual understanding."

No, Xiao Jingheng said in his heart, that is an ordinary person, but the situation of himself and Gu Qinghe is too special...

"Your Majesty can grant you a marriage, but disobeying his order will result in death." The emperor said this last sentence, which was also the core of the conversation between father and son. He didn't want his son to be sad, so he had to let someone else's daughter down.

Looking at it from another angle, the emperor grants the marriage, and grants it to the prince. This is the highest honor in the world. No woman can refuse, right?

"Father, just take care of your health. I will make sure you see your grandchildren as soon as possible." Xiao Jingheng said. The emperor smiled when he heard it. The prince had the same personality as the queen, and he always comforted others first.

"Okay, I can't just let you do what you want. If you still can't do it by the second day of November, your father will take action and grant you a marriage with Gu An's daughter." The emperor said with a smile. It was quite interesting to see the prince trapped in love. It was better to experience it now than after he was gone.

The second day of November, isn’t that the wedding day granted by the imperial decree in the previous life?

When Xiao Jingheng thought of this, his first thought was joy, but then he fell into depression. In his previous life, the two of them did not have so many entanglements, and everything was so logical.

But, in this life...

The emperor sat opposite him, looking at his prince. The expression on his face was sometimes surprised, sometimes depressed. He felt a little sorry for his son when he saw all this excitement.

Gu An is unruly, and it seems that the daughter he gave birth to is also very troublesome.

However, on second thought, when his princess married the prince consort, he felt regretful that he had not tortured the prince consort enough. After all, it was understandable since he was marrying off his daughter.

"The most important thing to avoid when doing things is indecision. This is how the emperors of the previous dynasty acted, and this is also how the emperors of the backyard deal with the love affairs of young people. Just don't regret it." The emperor said quietly.

"Yes, thank you for your guidance, father." After hearing the emperor's words, Xiao Jingheng became more convinced of his thoughts.

It is said that the kindness shown in this life can be repaid by working like a slave in the next life, or by tying a grass ring and carrying a ring. So the debt he owed in his previous life must be repaid in this life.

The emperor looked at the prince whose neck straightened again, hummed softly, and nodded with satisfaction.

"Your Majesty, it's time for you to take your medicine." The voice of the eunuch Li Ankang sounded behind him.

Xiao Jingheng looked over and saw that the medicinal soup inside was pitch black and looked very bitter.

"Manager Li, is this the new prescription from the Imperial Hospital?" Xiao Jingheng took the tray from him, scooped up a spoonful, and asked softly.

For some reason, Li Ankang's breathing stagnated. Xiao Jingheng looked over at him and he quickly said, "Yes, this is the new prescription for this month."

"Yeah." Xiao Jingheng responded lightly and said nothing else.

Gu Qinghe asked Yingchun and Wangchun to take turns going out to confirm that there was indeed no one on the roof today, and only then did they arrange for the glass lamp sent by Prince Gou.

"Girl, this lamp is much brighter than the lampshade we usually use, and we don't have to worry about the wick burning it. It's great." Wangchun exclaimed with a smile.

Gu Qinghe also nodded, and then opened the envelope in the light of the glass lamp. It was the Dog Prince who put it in the box.

She opened it and saw a large piece of paper with few words on it, just pictures.

There is only one frontal face in the painting. The woman is standing among the flowers, talking to the person opposite her with a smile on her face.

Gu Qinghe was a little puzzled. Was Xiao Jingheng showing off his skills? She had long known that his painting skills were decent.

"Girl, is this painted this year? But have we ever gone out on this day?" Wangchun looked up at her questioningly.
