Good luck in pregnancy, the daughter of the prime minister's mansion has a soft waist

She had thought she would have more choices, but now it seemed that everything was settled.

Madam Kang even screamed, "Your Majesty, what about Luo Xi? Are you going to force her to commit suicide?"

The Queen Mother also felt that Prince Xuan's answer seemed particularly ruthless. His cold words revealed his unwavering determination. This attitude was quite similar to that of the Emperor. They were both cold-blooded.

Prince Xuan seemed to have found some support at this moment. He was no longer confused, but said stubbornly: "My mansion is spacious. If she really wants to follow me, she can come in at any time. I have no objection."

The meaning of this sentence is obviously that if Shen Luoxi is willing to condescend to be a concubine, he has no objection.

This was equivalent to hinting that Shen Luoxi should become a concubine. Mrs. Kang was struck by lightning when she heard this. The previous plan against Shen Muxue not only failed to achieve the intended purpose, but also harmed her own son. If she misjudged the situation again this time, she would undoubtedly destroy her daughter's future with her own hands.

Thinking of this, she couldn't hold back her tears. She hugged the Queen Mother's legs tightly and begged, "Your Majesty, please have mercy on my child. She has not lived with me since she was a child. We have only been reunited for a few days. How can I bear to see her suffer for the rest of her life because of this? Please have mercy on her and don't let her life be so difficult."

Faced with Mrs. Kang's pleading, the Queen Mother did not show any sympathy, but just watched the scene happen indifferently.

Seeing the Queen Mother's indifference, Madam Kang felt even more grief-stricken. She turned to Shen Muxue and cried, "Xue'er, I raised you and never asked for anything from you. This time, I just hope you can be humble. Do you remember the promise you made to me? You said you didn't want to be Prince Xuan's principal wife. You are a noble county lady, beloved by the people of the capital for curing the plague. People call you a living immortal. You have an extremely bright future and many outstanding candidates are waiting for you. Such as the Prince of Pingnan or the Prince of Nanding, who are as good as Prince Xuan, and may even be more suitable. Tomorrow I will take you to a blind date. Just leave the opportunity to your sister, okay?"

After encountering Mrs. Kang's assassination several times, Shen Muxue was filled with strong disgust for her, which was almost beyond words. However, she cared a lot about the image she presented in front of outsiders, and she knew that it was impossible to change the final outcome of her fate.

Therefore, she could only try her best to suppress her inner disgust, pretending to be deeply moved, and slowly squatted down to support the shaky Madam Kang. She said, "Mother, please rest assured. I am willing to do my best to fulfill your wish. As long as it can make you happy, I am willing to give you everything. I just hope that mother will stop crying. Seeing you in such pain, it makes me feel very sad too. Sister, please come and comfort me."

Although Shen Muxue pretended to be kind and good on the surface, she still did not miss any opportunity to attack the other party.

Shen Luoxi was kneeling there like a stone, her whole body stiff as if she had lost her soul. In this situation, how could she still have the courage to speak and comfort her mother?

Seeing that the situation was gradually under control, the Queen Mother turned to the Emperor and asked, "Your Majesty, what is your opinion on this approach?"

The emperor replied with his usual indifference, "My mother, please do whatever you think is appropriate."

It was obvious that the emperor was quite casual and indifferent to everything.

The Queen Mother actually disliked the Emperor's indifferent and opinionless attitude, and even hoped to immediately encourage Shen Muxue and Prince Xuan to get married, so as to make the Emperor feel deep regret.

"I have entered my old age, and my abilities in all aspects have declined, especially my thinking ability. It would be better if I could ask the Duke to establish a rule to resolve this matter. After all, these two girls are of your bloodline."

Duke Anguo immediately displayed his characteristically upright and resolute character and said, "I believe that we should adhere to the conclusions of our previous discussions and that it would be most appropriate for Xue'er to be betrothed to His Royal Highness Prince Xuan. As for Luo Xi, we might consider allowing her to retreat to the family temple for a period of time."

"No! Father, I am your own flesh and blood!"

"My Lord, this is too much, isn't it? How could you be so heartless and cruel to your own daughter?"

The constant shouting gave the empress dowager a headache. In a rage, she slammed the lid of the teacup in her hand heavily on the table. After the crisp and loud sound, the whole hall suddenly became silent.

"Then this matter is settled."

The Queen Mother made the final decision with a resolute look.

His Majesty was so shocked by the sudden decision that he almost choked on his tea and started coughing.

I never thought that my mother, who has always been so careful and cautious, would know the secret relationship between Shen Muxue and me, and even make such a decisive decision under such circumstances. "Mother, do you think this punishment is too harsh for the two daughters of the Shen family?"

The Queen Mother raised her eyebrows slightly, her face filled with anger as she demanded, "Could it be that being nice to Xue'er now could be considered mercy? Xue'er, what do you think is the most appropriate way to resolve this matter?"

There was an unquestionable power in her tone, as if she was waiting for Shen Muxue to give a satisfactory answer.

Shen Muxue was listening to the opera attentively, immersed in it without thinking much. She had no idea that things would take a turn and she would have to make the decision.

She answered almost subconsciously, "Everything will be done according to your wishes, Queen Mother."

It was not until she finished speaking that she suddenly realized that the Queen Mother's intention was to marry her to Prince Xuan, which made her feel a little at a loss.

Then she glanced sideways at the emperor sitting beside her, and saw that after hearing her answer, his expression gradually became gloomy, and he seemed to be very dissatisfied and worried about this decision.

After arguing for a while, the Queen Mother finally insisted on following the plan proposed by Duke Anguo. However, when facing the Emperor's questioning, Duke Anguo firmly stated his position and refused to change his original idea.

Seeing this, the emperor had no choice but to take the initiative to announce his decision: "From now on, Prince Xuan will marry Luo Xi, the daughter of the Shen family."

In this way, the noisy dispute in the entire palace finally came to a temporary end, but no one could tell what kind of undercurrent was buried beneath this seemingly calm surface.

When he returned to his own mansion, the moment he stepped through the door, Prince Shen keenly noticed that the atmosphere at home was quite strange. The family members each had their own thoughts and expressions.
