Chapter 437: Actor Brother Ting
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Emperor Jing Xuan did not expect Wei Ting to do this to him. How could he do this?
Why was Wei Ting thanking him?
Where was his backbone?
Had it been eaten by a dog?
Emperor Jing Xuan was too shocked to say a word for a long time.
To be honest, the civil and military officials were also very shocked.
They were also stunned.
What happened?
His Majesty seemed to have given him a marriage, but it also seemed that he had not.
The key was that Wei Ting did not refuse!
Did he thank His Majesty for his kindness?
Before His Majesty could finish, he thanked him!
What the h.e.l.l—
The entire court was silent.
The Empress Dowager did not come today, but in order to let the emperor prove it to her, she sent Eunuch Cheng.
Eunuch Cheng was guarding outside the throne room.
He couldn’t bear to watch, really.
“You…” Emperor Jing Xuan took a deep breath and finally found his voice.” There’s no need to force yourself like this. You’re a hero of the Great Zhou. Your grandfather was an elder of two dynasties. The Wei family is loyal… ”
“Your Majesty.” Wei Ting interrupted Emperor Jing Xuan, his tone aggrieved. “I don’t want to be a monk anymore.”
Emperor Jing Xuan gritted his teeth. “When did I let you become a monk?”
Wei Ting said, “The last time.” Emperor Jing Xuan choked.
Wei Ting continued to choke him.
Naturally, he had to control his aggrieved and helpless tone.
“The last time His Majesty bestowed a marriage on me, I didn’t agree, so His Majesty punished me to become a monk.”
Emperor Jing Xuan fell back in anger!
Was he the one who punished him? Didn’t this kid agree to it himself?
“Wei Ting, you don’t even like myprincess. Do you want to become a monk?’
“I accept the decree. ”
Then this kid ran to be a monk!
Emperor Jing Xuan could not reason with him. He was so angry that his head hurt!
Wei Ting pushed his shamelessness and blame to the limit. “I won’t dare to do it again. I’ll do whatever Your Majesty says. If Your Majesty agrees to my marriage, I’ll get married happily.” So was this his fault?
Emperor Jing Xuan’s head buzzed.
He raised his hand and pinched his sore eyebrows. He asked, “Where’s Su
Yuan?”
“I’m here.” Su Yuan held the ceremonial tablet and took a step forward.
Emperor Jing Xuan asked calmly, “What do you have to say?”
Su Yuan thought about it seriously. “One has to keep his word.”
Emperor Jing Xuan was speechless.
Emperor Jing Xuan still did not give up.
Suddenly, an idea flashed through his mind.
“I… suddenly remembered something. Did Su Daya get married in the countryside?”
This matter had long spread in the capital. With the villagers of Apricot Flower Village as witnesses, Su Daya and Qin Canglan admitted it.
Su Yuan said calmly, “Oh, they’ve already divorced.”
Emperor Jing Xuan, who was sent flying by the punches, was speechless.
Qi Xiang Palace.
“Consort! Princess!”
Liu Sande hurriedly walked over.
It was a holiday in the palace school today. It was rare for Princess Hui An not to go to cla.s.s, so she came over to eat breakfast with Consort Xian.
Consort Xian frowned and asked, “What’s the matter? Why are you so fl.u.s.tered?”
Liu Sande glanced at Princess Hui An and said bitterly, “Your Highness, His
Majesty arranged a marriage for Wei Ting!”
Princess Hui An stood up with bright eyes. “He arranged a marriage for Brother
Ting? Is Brother Ting going to marry me?”
“Ah… This…” Liu Sande had a bitter expression on his face. “The marriage partner is not the princess.”
Princess Hui An glared. “It wasn’t me? Was it that little b*tch, Guo Lingxi?”
Consort Xian’s face darkened. “How can a dignified princess speak like that? Do you have the etiquette of a royal family member?”
Princess Hui An’s eyes turned red with grievance. She sat down and cried. “But Mother… Father betrothed him to someone else…
Consort Xian asked, “Did His Majesty really matchmake Princess Lingxi and wei Ting?”
Liu Sande said awkwardly, “It’s not Princess Lingxi. It’s Miss Qin.”
Consort Xian muttered, “Qin Yanran? No, Qin Yanran is already the Eldest Prince’s secondary consort… Are you talking about that fat girl who grew up among the commoners?”
She was the wife her son liked. The Qin family’s military power was all on her!
If he married her, his son would be the most powerful compet.i.tor for the throne!
Liu Sande said, “Yes.”
Consort Xian’s eyes rolled back and she fainted.
A teahouse in the market opened.
Due to the remote terrain, there were not many customers in the shop.
At this moment, in a room at the end of the second floor, Matriarch Wei and Qin Canglan sat opposite each other.
Behind the two of them stood their trusted aides—Granny Li and Steward Cen.
Old Madam Wei said arrogantly, “Let’s make it clear first. The two children’s marriage is to lure out the mastermind. They have no choice. Don’t take it too seriously.”
Qin Canglan sneered. “I should be the one saying this to your Wei family. Your kid is staying at my granddaughter’s house and refusing to leave. I think he’s enjoying freeloading.”
Matriarch Wei mocked, “Heh, I wonder who crossed the path of Dahu, Erhu, and Xiaohu in front of His Majesty. If not for the sake of letting the children acknowledge their roots and ancestors, I wouldn’t have agreed to this marriage! ”
Qin Canglan sneered. “You make it sound like our Qin family cherishes it!
Today in the throne room, it seems that your son personally agreed when His
Majesty hasn’t even finished speaking. I wonder how impatient he is! ”
Old Madam Wei choked. “Isn’t… isn’t that because he’s afraid that something will happen if he delayed it?”
Young brat, couldn’t he be more reserved and wait for His Majesty to finish?
He had embarra.s.sed his grandmother!
“Don’t forget, there’s still the Imperial Astronomer.”
Emperor Jing Xuan had been tricked by the Empress Dowager and Wei Ting, so he had accidentally “betrothed” the two of them. He was the emperor, so he naturally would not slap his face in public.
But what if the two of them were not compatible? There was a reason for this marriage to be canceled.
“June 15th,” Qin Canglan said.
“What?” Matriarch Wei was stunned.
Qin Canglan took out their horoscopes. On them were the words “A match made in heaven” and the personal seal of the Imperial Astronomer.
“The auspicious day of the Imperial Astronomer, ” he said.
Old Madam Wei picked up the horoscopes and said in disbelief, “You… have dealings with the Imperial Astronomy?
He had never heard of it.
Qin Canglan said, “If you mean that kid, yes.”
The Princ.i.p.al was not young. He was the same age as Emperor Jing Xuan. Only Qin Canglan had the age and qualification to call him a kid.
“When he was young, he did a stupid thing. I was the one who got his back. I
ma ror mm:
Old Madam Wei was puzzled.
Gongsun Zheng had been pure-hearted all his life. He did not fight for fame or fortune and had no desires. She could not think of anything stupid such a person could do.
Qin Canglan showed off. “In short, without me, there would be no Inspector Gongsun.”
There would also not be the Empress.
The good news spread to the Wei family.
Madam Jiang pulled Madam Chen and happily went to Madam Chu’s courtyard.
“Sister-in-law!” Madam Jiang smiled and greeted her. “Second Sister-in-law and Fourth Sister-in-law are also here.”
Madam Li smiled. “Fifth Sister-in-law, Third Sister-in-law.”
Madam Lan nodded.
Madam Jiang smiled and said, “Sister-in-law, Second Sister-in-law, Fourth Sister-in-law, have you heard the news? His Majesty has arranged a marriage for Little Seven and Seventh Sister-in-law!”
Madam Lan said sarcastically, “Didn’t you call her by her name last time? Why did you call her Seventh Sister-in-law after not seeing her for a day?”
Madam Jiang pushed the blame on Madam Chen in a second. “I… I followed Third Sister-in-law!”
She was definitely not bribed by meat!
