100 ways to trick a boy into going to sleep

Chapter 831 Begonia Spring

An imperial edict clearly stipulated that the Crown Prince would marry the daughter of Zheng Jibo, the governor of Tanzhou.

In an instant, the atmosphere at the scene became suffocating and strange.

Not to mention Li Yin's subordinates, even the crowd of onlookers had different expressions.

Why did this imperial decree have to arrive just as that Lady Shen's dowry was due?

Su Sixu rushed over just in time to witness this scene.

He knew about this imperial edict; the emperor had drafted it long ago but had been hesitant about whether to send it out.

In that person's opinion, the Crown Prince should be a better match.

However, there was no suitable candidate in a short period of time, which is why the emperor did not send the imperial edict with them.

It seems that the one in the temple had come to a realization a few days after they set off.

"Your Highness, receive the decree."

The messenger whispered a reminder to Li Yin.

"I already have a principal wife, and there is no reason for me to have a second wife."

"Then?" The messenger was immediately stunned. He was just a messenger, caught between the Emperor and the future Emperor. He was the only one caught in the middle and no one was in a good position!

"You have worked so hard here, so let's wrap things up and make arrangements. Rest for the night, and set off again tomorrow with the Emperor's decree."

"Yes!"

This is the first time in history that someone has handled the matter of defying an imperial edict with such composure and naturalness!

The messenger's lowly status and the silence of Su Sixu, who could have spoken up for him, made him easy to manipulate. However, since His Highness the Crown Prince had not accepted the imperial decree, the messenger was left to face the Emperor's wrath alone. He felt uneasy and unsure of what to do.

This seems to be the fate of ordinary people.

To the powerful and wealthy, their lowly lives are nothing more than ants in this fleeting world.

Wei Xuancheng walked to Li Yin's side, a hint of worry in his eyes: "Your Highness's actions may offend the Emperor."

Li Yin pursed his lips and remained silent.

He only regretted that he hadn't acted faster; he should have first married Huan'er and then written a letter to inform the emperor.

Having worked with Li Yin for a long time, Wei Xuancheng could naturally discern some of his master's thoughts.

Knowing he wouldn't change his mind, I stopped trying to persuade him.

This matter could be a big deal or a small deal, depending on how they handle it.

There are still more people in the court who support the emperor these days. Even those with ulterior motives who want to stir up trouble should think twice.

After all, the Crown Prince's supporters are not to be underestimated.

Su Sixu only stepped forward to greet Li Yin after Li Yin had finished dealing with the matter.

"Without Eunuch Su guarding those women in the villa, how could he have the leisure to come here and enjoy the scenery?"

The one who spoke was an advisor to Li Yin.

They were aware of what had happened some time ago, and knowing that their master disliked the person in front of them, they naturally wouldn't be too polite in their words.

Su Sixu ignored the rudeness of some people, looked directly at the Crown Prince, and said in a low voice, "If Your Highness will heed this old servant's advice, you should marry Lady Shen as soon as possible, and do not bring Lady Shen back to Chang'an City in the future."

Back then, Shen Niangzi's mother had saved him several times.

Over the years, he has often thought of and been grateful for the Buddha, and now that he has met his descendants, he always wants to extend his blessings to the Buddha.

Judging from the scale of the dowry today, it was probably not all of that wealthy merchant's wealth. Su Sixu felt a little disappointed, but also gratified that her child could be recognized by his ancestors and have the protection of relatives.

Since it was the child's own choice, he wouldn't become that villain. However, the Sage is deeply obsessed with that person, and he fears that if His Highness takes her back, the Sage might really do something irrational!

Li Yin could distinguish right from wrong. Although he didn't know why Eunuch Su had changed his mind, he would accept this kindness today.

"Thank you."

Su Sixu could not stay any longer, and Li Yin originally wanted to send someone to escort him, but he stopped him and left on his own.

When Jin Huan's sedan chair arrived, everyone was still standing at the gate of the mansion.

The moment the curtain was lifted, her stunning beauty left everyone speechless!

The usually composed and self-possessed Li Yin frowned instantly and quickly stepped forward to shield Jin Huan's face!

What an outrageous sight! Why are you all staring at my wife? Don't you all have wives of your own?!
