Top white, rich and beautiful, the princess is reborn and the revenge story
Chapter 81 Zhao Yushu's Marriage
All the relevant people were dealt with cleanly, and some people took this opportunity to squeeze in the people they disliked and deal with them all at once.
Blood was shed again and again in Caishikou, the mass graves were filled with unwanted corpses, and there were many more stray dogs than usual.
Everyone in the capital was in danger and kept silent, and the ministers were much more obedient when they attended court.
The only person who was not punished was Ming Zhaoyi's daughter, Princess Ninglin, Zhao Yushu.
Zhao Yuanqing asked, "Could it be that Father still has some affection for Zhao Yushu because of Ming Zhaoyi?"
The Queen sighed, "There is very little family affection in the palace. The Emperor was so cruel to the Fourth Prince and Ming Zhaoyi, so how could he let Zhao Yushu go?
In the palace, the roles of princes and princesses are different. Princes are used to inherit the throne. If there are no princes, there will be worries, but if there are too many, there will be concerns.
Daughters are different. Only a very few can truly gain the Emperor's favor. The rest are used to exchange for benefits, either given to ministers or sent abroad to marry."
Marriage?
Zhao Yuanqing's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that the Emperor was sending Zhao Yushu to marry a foreign prince? Where could he send her to?
The queen's words were very prescient. Sure enough, a few days later, the emperor issued an imperial decree, conferring the title of Princess Hening on Zhao Yushu and sending her to the Kingdom of Wumeng to marry the eldest prince of Wumeng, Zhenpaier.
Along with the imperial edict, there were also a large number of rewards, all of which were continuously sent to the palace where Zhao Yushu was.
What is Wumeng? It's in the northwest of the country. I heard that the people there don't have any fixed houses. They live a nomadic life. They have to find warm places to graze their livestock in the winter and migrate back in the summer.
There are no magnificent palaces there, nor any exquisite daily necessities. I heard that there are not even toilets, so people can only live in tents, which are extremely simple and backward.
What's even more terrifying is that I heard that women there are like objects. Big shots can give their wives to others to play with at will. Women there are not even as valuable as a cow or a sheep. They can be beaten, scolded, and bought and sold at will.
Zhao Yushu was furious when she received the imperial edict. She snatched it and read it again and again, "No! No! I don't believe it, Father! I want to see you!"
The one who came to deliver the decree was the Emperor's chief eunuch, Liu Shun. He flicked his whisk and said, "Princess Hening, the Emperor is very busy right now. Please focus on preparing for your marriage. We will depart for Wumeng in seven days."
Zhao Yushu screamed, "No! I want to see the emperor——!"
She pushed Liu Shun away, bumped past the people blocking her way, and stumbled out.
The eunuchs chased after her, but Liu Shun stopped them, "Forget it, run slower and let her go see the emperor."
Zhao Yushu ran wildly in the palace. The high and thick red wall blocked her like a monster. She ran desperately, not caring about losing her shoes and her hair bun coming loose. She didn't want to marry into the Wumeng Kingdom!
Zhao Yushu ran to the imperial study, breathless, but the eunuch stopped her and said, "Princess, the emperor is busy inside."
"I want to see the emperor! I want to see the emperor!"
Lu Jia went in to report, and the emperor's face was calm. "Since she's here, let her in."
"Princess, the emperor summons you."
Zhao Yushu became nervous again. She scratched her tangled hair, walked in bravely, knelt on the ground with a plop, and began to kowtow, "Bang! Bang! Bang!"
She just kowtowed loudly without saying a word.
The emperor frowned and said, "Alright, let's talk now. How can you go to the marriage alliance with a broken forehead?"
Zhao Yushu's tears flowed, and she choked up, "Father, I don't want to go on the marriage! Please take back your decision!"
She looked at the emperor pitifully. Her father had loved her since she was a child. Although her mother's position was not very high, the emperor often visited her mother's palace. She, her father, her mother, and her brother were like a family.
As long as she cries and acts coquettishly, her father will satisfy her. His father will not ignore her, he will not ignore her!
The emperor put down the red brush in his hand and asked calmly, "Don't you want to go to the marriage?"
"Yes! I don't want to go!"
"Sure. Lu Jia, bring it in."
"Yes!"
Lu Jia brought in a tray with a white porcelain cup on it filled with crimson liquid.
"Since you don't want to marry, drink this cup of poison!"
Zhao Yushu was stunned. "Father, why?"
"Shu'er, why do you say that? Your brother committed a capital crime, your mother is dead, and all those involved in this matter were executed, leaving only you.
I have loved you very much in the past. Many people have advised me to kill you, but I have stopped them. However, in order to stop them from talking, I can only find a husband for you. Unfortunately, no one in Daqing Kingdom dares to marry you. I have no choice but to send you to marry a foreign prince, so that you can save your life.
I have worked so hard for you, but you don't appreciate it. So drink this poisoned cup and go stay with your mother and brother. That way I can give an explanation to the world."
Zhao Yushu stammered, "Father, I don't want to go on the marriage. If you want to punish me, you can ask me to guard the imperial mausoleum!"
"How dare you! With your status, how can you guard the imperial mausoleum? Wouldn't you be pissing off our ancestors to death?!"
Zhao Yushu fell to the ground. It was either to marry a foreign princess or to die. Was there no better way?
The emperor glanced at her and snorted in his heart.
"You can choose between the two. If you choose to marry, I can give you more dowry. If you don't want to go, drink this cup of poisoned wine, and I will bury you properly."
Zhao Yushu stood up, walked closer and looked at the cup. The poisonous wine in the cup was red with pink, and it was obvious that it was an extremely strong poison. After drinking it, he wondered if he would become like his brother, swollen like a maggot.
The wanton imagination destroyed Zhao Yushu's will. She took a few steps back and bumped into the pillar. "I don't want to die, I don't want to die!"
"So you chose the marriage?"
Zhao Yushu closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, her face became determined, "I will go to marry! Father, I don't want to die!"
"Hahaha, good, Lu Jia!"
"Princess, please look at this."
Lu Jia picked up the cup of poisoned wine and drank it all. He showed the bottom of the cup to Zhao Yushu, "It's rich and sweet, with a hint of sourness. Princess, this is not poisonous wine, this is pomegranate juice!"
Zhao Yushu was stunned. "Pomegranate juice? Impossible!"
She snatched the cup away, brought it up to her nose and sniffed it. It was indeed sweet like pomegranate. "You lied to me!"
"Young ones don't dare."
Lu Jia backed out.
Zhao Yushu understood, "Father, you lied to me! Why?"
"I didn't lie to you, Shu'er. I just tested you. If you had chosen to drink the poisoned wine, I would have let you go and not let you go to marry, but you didn't.
This is not my fault, you can only blame yourself. You are afraid of death and dare not fight for your life, so you can only marry into the alliance. This is your own choice."
Zhao Yushu remained silent for a long time. She stared at the emperor, as if from today on, she was getting to know her good father for the first time.
The emperor felt no guilt at all and patted her shoulder, "Go back and prepare for your marriage. If you are well prepared, you will have a better life in Wumeng.
You are different from your mother and brother. They like to insist on something meaningless, say some meaningless words, hold inexplicable pride, and finally lose their lives.
In order to survive, you can bend and stretch, come up with all kinds of schemes, and put them into action. I believe that with this kind of behavior, you can live well in Wumeng Kingdom.
Go! "
The emperor gave Zhao Yushu a gentle push, and he walked out of the imperial study in a daze.
Lu Jia bowed and said, "Princess Hening, please come in."
Zhao Yushu turned around, stared at him viciously, and slapped him in the face, "Pa!"
Lu Jia was stunned, "Princess!"
Zhao Yushu gritted her teeth and said angrily, "You little slave! How dare you lie to me! I can't beat my father, but can I beat you?"
Lu Jia dared not speak out, and Zhao Yushu laughed heartily. "You dare to ruin this princess's marriage? The emperor will be the first one to not forgive you!"
She left laughing like a mad person. Now that her mother and brother were dead, no one really cared about her anymore. She could go crazy whenever she wanted, hahaha.
