Chapter 108 Why not come to the Marquis's Mansion tomorrow to propose marriage?

Prince Zhong immediately said, "Your Majesty is wise, and I would like to ask Your Majesty to grant a marriage between Ziyuan and the Second Miss Shen of the Marquis of Anbo Mansion."

Emperor Huaiqing did not reply immediately, but leaned back in the dragon chair in the imperial study, thinking. The three important ministers did not dare to speak, and stood aside with their heads bowed.

The most anxious person at this time was Lord Mu Yun. He also wanted to fight for this marriage for his second son. If he granted the marriage at this moment, how would he explain it to his second son? But the emperor didn't say anything, and he didn't dare to speak either. He was so anxious that sweat began to break out on his forehead.

Although Marquis Anbo felt a little surprised that Prince Zhong asked the emperor to grant Shen'er a marriage in front of him, Madam Shen had been telling him every day these days that both the young masters from the Prince's Mansion and the Duke's Mansion liked Shen'er very much, and that both of them were good and it would be a good match for Shen'er to marry anyone of them.

After Shen'er had two accidents, he also figured it out. What's most important is that his daughter likes him. If His Majesty grants marriage to Prince Zhong's Mansion, and Shen'er seems to like Zhu Yanxiao, then let's marry.

"My dear Minister Shen." Emperor Huaisheng finally spoke.

"Wei Chen is here."

"Are you willing to marry your second daughter to the son of Prince Zhong?"

"Your Majesty, I wish..."

"Your Majesty, I also have a favor to ask." When Lord Mu Yun saw that the wind was blowing in the wrong direction, he immediately knelt down and interrupted Marquis Anbo's reply.

Emperor Huai Sheng frowned and said, "Lord Mu, will you also allow me to grant a marriage between the Second Young Master and the Second Miss Shen?"

Lord Mu Yun gritted his teeth and knelt down and answered, "Well, Your Majesty is wise, that's right." He felt his head hurt even more.

"Nonsense." Emperor Zhu Haochen said angrily, "Do you think my imperial study is a court? Is it used to solve the trivial matters of your palaces every day?"

The three of them knelt down together: "Your Majesty, please calm down."

"I will not grant you this marriage, and don't ask me about it in the future. As a minister, not only do you not share my worries, but I have to worry about the marriage of my offspring? Who will worry about my princes and princesses? I am busy with the affairs of the East and the palace every day, and now I have to worry about the marriage of your offspring? Do you really think I am omnipotent?" Emperor Huai Sheng became more and more angry as he spoke, and he picked up a memorial and threw it at the place where the three people were kneeling, angrily saying: "Get out of here."

The three of them kowtowed hurriedly, this time their hearts were in unison, and their voices were also in unison: "Your Majesty, please calm down. I will take my leave." After saying that, they quickly stood up and walked out of the imperial study. Behind them came the still angry voice of Emperor Huai Sheng: "Eunuch Liu, I get angry whenever I see any of these three people recently. It's just nonsense."

Eunuch Liu glanced at the three important ministers who were walking out of the imperial study dejectedly, strode into the imperial study in small steps, and advised in a shrill voice: "Your servant obeys your order. Your Majesty, please calm down and take care of your health." After that, he knelt down, picked up the imperial edict thrown on the ground by Emperor Huaisheng, placed it in front of His Majesty, and stood respectfully aside.

Emperor Zhu Haochen lost his temper, but calmed down a little and started reading the memorial. Eunuch Liu winked at the eunuch who had poked his head out, and looked at the emperor's teacup. The eunuch understood and went to change the tea for Emperor Huai Sheng.

Prince Zhong, Duke Mu and Marquis An left the imperial study.

Marquis Anbo thought that yesterday's incident was caused by his daughter, so he bowed to the two royal relatives with some embarrassment and said, "My lords, I will take my leave first."

"Hey, Marquis An, what about the marriage?" Prince Zhong spoke first.

"Prince Zhong, let's discuss the marriage later, later." Then he said to Lord Mu Yun, "Lord Mu, I'm sorry for what happened yesterday. My daughter was naughty and hurt Miss Mu Wu. When Miss Wu's injury is healed, I will let Shen'er prepare a generous gift and go to Miss Wu's house to apologize."

"No need for a generous gift, just marry my son the jade and we'll write off the matter."

"You old man, is Marquis An the kind of person who would sell his daughter?"

"Humph, the Duke's Mansion hasn't settled the score for Prince Zhu injuring my legitimate daughter yet, but Prince Zhong is the first to start making a scene?"

Seeing that the two adults were about to quarrel again, this place was not far from the imperial study, and An Bohou had no choice but to bite the bullet and go forward to persuade them: "My two adults, this place is close to the imperial study, and the quarrel will disturb His Majesty. Why don't you go back to your own house first?"

Lord Mu Yun was also a little annoyed and said, "Marquis An, this matter was caused by the second young lady of your mansion. You can't just stay out of it. Why don't you give the two families an explanation today, which young master of the mansion will the second young lady Shen marry?"

Prince Zhong rarely did not refute his archenemy and looked at Marquis Anbo.

"This... I will go back to the mansion to ask my daughter what she thinks."

"Hmph, is this what the Second Miss meant or what you, Marquis Anber, meant?"

"Mu Pifu, don't be so aggressive. You are afraid that the second young lady will marry our Ziyuan."

"You old thief, my countryman is afraid of nothing."

"Ahem. It's getting late today. Since you two adults don't trust me, why don't you ask the two ladies to come to the mansion tomorrow at 11:00 to listen to my daughter's opinion? I will never stop my daughter from marrying any gentleman she wants."

"Hmph, go ahead. This duke has never been afraid."

"Marquis Anbo, the princess will come to bother you tomorrow."

"Very good, very good. My Lords, please."

Prince Zhong and Duke Mu looked at each other with disgust. They snorted coldly and said nothing more. The three of them walked out of the Meridian Gate quickly. Prince Zhong and Duke Mu Yun got on the palace carriages and went to their own palaces in the east and west corners of the imperial city respectively.

Marquis Anbo Shen Qingming entered the mansion with a worried look on his face. He thought for a moment and said to the servant Dehou, "Go and inform Daishan Court that I am going to look for the old lady now. Then tell the lady and the second young lady to come to Daishan Court as soon as possible."

Dehou received the order and hurried to pass the message.

Shen Qingming walked towards the old lady's Daishan Courtyard. After walking for half a cup of tea, he arrived at the gate and saw Nanny Gui and Dongxue waiting for him at the gate.

"My Lord." The two men saluted.

"No need to be polite. Is mother free?"

"The old lady has received a notice from the servants and is already waiting for the Marquis in the hall. Please follow me." After saying that, she instructed Dongxue who was standing beside her: "You wait for the Madam and the Second Miss." After saying that, she led Shen Qingming into the Daishan Courtyard.

"Mother, your son is here to bother you." Seeing the old lady, Shen Qingming bowed and greeted her.

In the main hall, the old lady leaned on the beauty couch with half-closed eyes. She still had the emerald green hairpin that Shen Shenshen wore when he first saw her on her head, and she still had the string of finely carved Buddhist beads in her hand. When she saw her son coming in, she said in a deep voice, "The Marquis is here, please sit down."

Mingmei immediately served hot tea.

"I came here today mainly to discuss something with my mother. Let's talk about it when my wife and the second young lady arrive."

"Is this related to the second girl?"

"Yes. It's about the second young lady's marriage."

"This second girl is such a worry." The old lady did not hide her dissatisfaction.

Shen Qingming said nothing, drinking tea and waiting patiently. The old lady also did not speak, just turning the Buddhist beads in her hand.

After waiting for about half a cup of tea, Dongxue's voice came: "Madam, the lady and the second young lady are here."

The old lady said calmly, "Come in."

Madam Shen and Shen Shen were led by Dongxue into the main house. They bowed to the old lady and the marquis and sat down respectively.

Shen Qingming said, "Mother, I am in the imperial study today. Prince Zhong asked His Majesty for permission to marry the second young lady to be the Crown Prince's consort."

Shen Shen looked up in surprise.
