The little fox is super pregnant, the heir-less boss is spoiling her like crazy

"Father, I, your son, would also like to ask for a favor."

Jiang Shiyun was frightened, especially since the Second Prince had just glanced at her. She became even more panicked. She wondered if the Second Prince was having a seizure.

"Well, let's hear it."

"This son has long admired Miss Shi Yun from the Duke's Mansion. Taking advantage of today's auspicious day, this son would like to ask the Emperor to grant her marriage and give her to this son as a concubine."

For a moment, the court was silent, and everyone held their breath, waiting for the emperor to speak.

Everyone knows that Jiang Shiyun was promised to the deposed crown prince as his principal wife. Now that the second prince has proposed to her, the atmosphere has become extremely awkward.

Especially since the emperor had just taken a fancy to Jiang Xian and before he could make a move, the second prince actually knelt down and begged for mercy.

The expression on Concubine Li's face was even more interesting. Her face became more and more gloomy, and it was simply unbearable to look at. She prepared such a grand ceremony, but it turned out to be making wedding dresses for others.

The emperor fell in love with Jiang Xian, and her son also fell in love with Jiang Shiyun.

But she just didn't like these two things. She just felt like there was a breath stuck in her chest, and she felt uncomfortable for a moment.

"This child, I think he's drunk, talking nonsense." Concubine Li's face was not good, and she shouted through gritted teeth, "Mammy, why don't you take the Second Prince away quickly? He's drunk and has lost his mind."

Upon receiving the order, the old nanny was about to go forward to help the second prince, but he brushed her away. He kowtowed again, his eyes becoming more determined.

"Father, I am not drunk. I understand exactly what I am doing. It is natural for a man and a woman to be attracted to each other. Moreover, I believe Miss Jiang is a wonderful woman. Her past was not her fault, and she deserves a good home. Furthermore, Miss Jiang and I are in love and are truly a match made in heaven."

The Second Prince didn't notice that with every word he uttered, Lou Jingyuan's face darkened. By the time they reached the perfect match, it had become so dark that it seemed as if water could drip from it.

He spoke with such conviction and sincerity that the emperor was momentarily confused. Could it be that this dissolute son had really changed his ways?

Jiang Shiyun was completely dazed. When had she and the Second Prince truly been so in love, so infatuated with each other, a match made in heaven? The Second Prince's nonsense was even scarier than any street talkbook.

Only Concubine Li was so angry that she gritted her teeth. She knew all about her son's evil intentions.

This idiot was just blinded by lust and attracted by the beauty of the girl from the Jiang family, so he rashly came forward to ask for a marriage.

She saw all the worthless look on his face when he looked at that little bitch.

Now that the empress has been deposed, the emperor has only this one son. Even if the crown prince is deposed in the future, he will not pose any threat.

Just when the bright future of her and her son was about to unfold, he lost his mind and did such a thing.

"Stop talking nonsense and leave now." Concubine Li's voice turned cold, and the displeasure on her face could no longer be concealed.

"Second Prince, what you are doing is unreasonable."

A low voice sounded, with a hint of displeasure in it, which made Jiang Shiyun instantly happy. This bastard was finally jealous.

She held back her tears and looked up at Lou Jingyuan, letting him see her haggard and painful appearance, before she lowered her head and wiped her tears.

"Your Majesty..." She stood up and knelt gracefully in the center of the hall, looking like she was about to cry. "I know I am not worthy of the Second Prince. Please forgive your nonsense just now. The Second Prince felt sorry for my situation, and I think it was just sympathy. You are naturally kind and generous. However, Shi Yun knows her own limitations and is truly unworthy of your precious body. Please don't insist on Shi Yun's sake, Shi Yun is grateful."

Jiang Shiyun's righteous refusal was met with a sneer from Lou Jingyuan, "Miss Jiang is indeed considerate and considerate of the Second Prince in every way. She truly has deep feelings for him."

For some reason, he emphasized the words "deep affection" very much, as if he was deliberately emphasizing something.

[Warning, warning, the target's blackening value has increased. The current blackening value is 61%. Stupid fox, think of a solution.]

The Emperor waved his hand and asked the Second Prince to stand up. He pressed his forehead and asked, "Marriage is no joke. Besides, Miss Jiang is innocent. I have already granted her a marriage and do not want to delay her again. I still hope that you will seriously consider it and come back to talk to me."

The Second Prince glanced at Jiang Shiyun beside him and replied, "Father, this son is not joking. This son has admired Miss Jiang for a long time, but before that, Miss Jiang was engaged, so this son had to bury this admiration deep in his heart. Now, this son has finally mustered up the courage to speak out what is in his heart. I hope that your Majesty will grant your blessing."

Lou Jingyuan laughed, "Duke Jiang is so lucky. The Second Prince is so devoted to him. This is enough to show how outstanding your daughter is."

The emperor took a sip of the cold tea, put down the teacup in his hand, and said calmly, "The Second Prince has been talking nonsense today after drinking. It would be better if he goes downstairs and drinks some sobering soup. If there is anything, we can talk after he sobers up."

This sentence was the final word. Upon hearing this, the eunuch winked and had the second prince taken away from the palace.

This time, the Second Prince didn't say anything else. He even seemed a little tipsy. He pressed his brow with his hand and said with a smile, "Father, I am indeed a little confused."

If Concubine Li had spoken, he could have ignored it, but when the emperor spoke, he didn't dare to argue anymore, although he didn't understand why the emperor's attitude suddenly took a turn for the worse.

After the second prince stepped down, Jiang Shiyun also stood up from the ground.

The emperor looked at Lou Jingyuan.

"The palace has been busy with affairs lately, and Lou Qing seems to have lost a lot of weight. He should take good care of himself and not lose sight of the big picture."

"I thank Your Majesty for your concern. Sharing your burden is my duty, and I dare not say how hard it is."

"Lou Qing does things, and I always follow his direction."

The emperor smiled at him and said, "Why don't you tell me what you want?"

As he spoke, his eyes stared at Lou Jingyuan dimly, "Lou Qing, just tell me. If it makes sense, I will grant you an imperial decree."

Lou Jingyuan said, "Then I will ask for three days' rest."

"That's it?"

"Yes."

Jiang Shiyun opened his eyelids and looked at Lou Jingyuan, a look of loss flashed across his eyes. With such a good opportunity, he could clearly...

The emperor laughed. "You seem to have no desires or requests. I will grant you three days of rest to recuperate." He glanced meaningfully at the court. "Only then can you focus on my work without distraction."

Everyone present fell silent.

After Lou Jingyuan kowtowed to express his gratitude, he calmly sat back in his seat.

There was a thin layer of sweat on his palms. It was a close call. He was almost taken away by the emperor just now. It seemed that he did say a lot today.

The emperor was suspicious, and his words made him realize that Duke Jiang's status was too noble. Coupled with the status of the Crown Princess's family, it was inevitable that the Second Prince would have inappropriate thoughts.

As soon as he sat down, he felt a sad gaze looking at him.
