Chapter 394: His Highness Prince Cheng Who Is Dedicated to Buddha
"Wan Ru, do you know what you are talking about?" Shui Ruolan stopped, looked at her with a serious face, and said seriously.
Shui Ruolan didn't expect Qin Wanru's reaction. She guessed that Qin Wanru might not like it, but she didn't expect that she would be so direct and decisive, without leaving any way out for herself.
"Mother, I know what father means. Is it possible that if you are like this, why do you still hope that Qi Tianyu is sincere?" Qin Wanru looked at Shui Ruolan calmly and said, "When we were in Jiangzhou, how were Qi Tianyu and Qin Yuru, everyone Everyone knows that the marriage ended and there was such a big scandal. As a man, can Qi Tianyu really let go?"
"You mean... Qi Tianyu has a different reason?" Shui Ruolan was surprised at first, and then frowned.
"Mother, you were in Jiangzhou before and met Qi Tianyu. Would a man like him be willing to suffer such a big loss? At that time, Qin Yuru tricked me into getting into the sedan chair. If I really went, it would be me who would be ruined. , it was me who he wanted to destroy at that time, but now he suddenly feels that this marriage is a good one, mother, do you believe it?"
Qin Wanru fluttered her long eyelashes twice and said softly.
Shui Ruolan fell silent and thought about her words: "Wanyu, your father means that he thinks Qi Tianyu is good. He also hinted to Qi Tianyu before, saying that Qi Tianyu immediately said that everything in the past would not matter. Qin The Mansion and the Qi Mansion are still as close as if they were in Jiangzhou."
"Qi Tianyu said that?" Qin Wanru said calmly.
"That's what he said. After hearing what he said, your father came up with the idea of marrying you to Qi Tianyu, saying that Qi Tianyu will become a great man in the future. Yuru and Qi Tianyu grew up as childhood sweethearts, and so did you. , Qi Tianyu was just a moment of righteous indignation, not completely unkind to you!"
Shui Ruolan said.
"Mother, if it was Qi Tianyu, I would rather not marry!" Qin Wanru looked at Shui Ruolan and said seriously again.
Her attitude was too firm. Shui Ruolan clearly saw her true thoughts, and her brows furrowed even more tightly: "I have tried to persuade your father like this before, but he just didn't listen. He said this Things are good and good for both families. He has no son. Qi Tianyu will be a big help in the future!"
"Help?" Qin Wanru raised her lips mockingly. Of course she understood what this meant, "Since I chose Yong-Kangbo Mansion at the beginning, I will be left behind if I look back!"
Just when Qi Baiyu told her about Qi Tianyu's unusual behavior, she clearly understood that Qin Huaiyong had agreed to it. Qi Tianyu appeared again and again in his house. It was not an accident, but he did not expect that Qi Tianyu actually had So much.
"Wanru, I also told your father at the time that I'm afraid this matter won't be solved. Your father just recognized Qi Tianyu and thought he was good at everything!" Shui Ruolan said hesitantly. She expected that Qin Wanru would not Like, something as big as Jiangzhou was almost ruined, how big of a heart must you have to not care about it!
"Mother, tell your father that I don't want to do this first!" Qin Wanru said after a moment of thought.
She had already guessed it. Although Shui Ruolan's words were sudden, she already had a countermeasure in her heart, so it didn't feel sudden. Everyone had kept it quiet before, so it was inconvenient for her to say anything, but now that she has After breaking it apart, she felt that she could say some things very directly.
Qi Tianyu? Do you really think that you are the caged bird in your last life, who was forced to retreat again and again, and finally fell into a dead end with no retreat?
"That's what I mean too. I will tell your father, but I'm afraid it won't be easy to dissuade him!" Shui Ruolan sighed, Qin Huaiyong has always been a person with ideas and it is difficult to be persuaded.
"Mom, please take your time. There is such a big thing happening in the capital. No one is in the mood to talk about marriage now. My father is too busy now. Besides, I am still young, so this matter is not urgent. !" Qin Wanru smiled slightly and said calmly.
Although there are some people who get engaged at the age of eleven in Beijing, they must be in the minority. Moreover, it is still a troubled time. There will be no peace during this period, which will make the father have no time to pay attention to his and Qi Tianyu's affairs. In addition, the mother said that she is unwilling Based on his father's character, he should let Qi Tianyu have more contact with him in order to eliminate his resistance.
This is a good thing for her! She would like to see how big Qi Tianyu's face is. He flirts with Qin Yuru in private, and then shows his attentiveness to her, hoping that she will marry him.
He's so charming and scheming, isn't he the one you're talking about!
Taking advantage of my young age, even if what I said was a bit harsh, so what! The corners of his lips curled up slightly, silently raising a hint of a cold smile.
In the last life, Qi Tianyu and Qin Yuru deceived themselves, but they still want to deceive themselves in this life!
The next few days in Beijing were very restless. Even during the Chinese New Year, everyone was a lot quieter!
At this time in previous years, there were far fewer lively banquets. Except for some close relatives and friends, there were basically no large-scale banquets. Regarding the assassination of King Cheng, many people were secretly paying attention to the case, and therefore noticed the man who was devoted to the matter. Buddha's King Cheng.
Everyone had heard before that King Cheng was sincere to the Buddha, and his heart was so strong that even though he was in his twenties, he still had no wife, no concubines in his house, and the people around him were all young people. Si, he always wears plain clothes and simple robes when he goes out. He rarely even appears in the capital. He is basically in the temple of his choice.
During the Chinese New Year in previous years, I never saw him coming down the mountain. He basically stayed in the Buddhist temple night after night.
In this life, everyone thought so at first, but later they discovered that His Highness Prince Cheng actually secretly went down the mountain. Those with quick heads immediately thought that if it hadn’t been for this assassination, would it have been the reason why Prince Cheng came down the mountain? No one else knows about it.
Can we think that King Cheng secretly went down the mountain before?
Or maybe none of the spies in the capital noticed King Cheng coming down the mountain? What that means is enough to make many aristocratic families secretly take a deep breath!
A rumor spread out from nowhere. Although it was not a rumor on the surface, more and more people knew about it.
When the late emperor passed away, he abandoned the infant Chu Liuchen and allowed the current emperor to ascend the throne. What this means is that before his death, the late emperor felt that his son was still too young to become an emperor, and he was afraid that some treacherous people would take advantage of him. Disaster for the country, it is said that many little emperors in history were supported in this way.
Therefore, the throne was passed to the current emperor, saying that brother will succeed after brother.
This statement is also the statement of many people who believe that the current emperor is orthodox, and it is also a statement that officials have been promoting.
Regardless of whether this is true or not, the current emperor relies on this to build momentum and become the orthodox member of the royal family. Of course, after ascending the throne, the emperor also said that he would treat his nephew equally and treat his nephew as his own son, and even said If Chu Liuchen is successful in the future, he can also inherit his throne.
Of course, although everyone couldn't tell what the so-called promising meant, Chu Liuchen, with such a sick body, blocked all rumors.
His life is in jeopardy, what else can he ask for! Looking at this, I am afraid that his life span will be shorter than that of the current emperor. There is no way that this throne will fall on Chu Liuchen.
Now, somehow, this rumor has spread again.
The protagonist in this rumor has nothing to do with Chu Liuchen. It is the current emperor and the current His Highness Prince Cheng.
With the current emperor taking over the throne from his eldest brother, it seems that His Highness King Cheng can take over the throne, or this idea can be regarded as orthodox, so it is obvious that he has some small tricks in secret.
The more rumors spread and the faster the news spread, the more people paid attention to His Highness Prince Cheng. They all felt that His Highness Prince Cheng might not be so devoted to Buddha. veil!
More and more people are paying attention to Prince Cheng's Mansion, making His Highness Prince Cheng's situation no longer as detached as before.
This matter had nothing to do with Qin Wanru originally. She was just a boudoir lady in General Ningyuan's mansion, and she was also a boudoir young lady.
But now this matter has come to her head in all kinds of twists and turns.
This incident surprised Qin Wanru!
"A post from Prince Cheng's Mansion?" Qin Wanru asked in surprise as he looked at the gold-gilded post in his hand.
"Yes, it's a post from Prince Cheng's Mansion. It was just delivered to the manor. It was said to be for the two young ladies in the manor, the eldest lady and you!" Yu Jie said.
Prince Cheng's Mansion has now become the center point of the entire incident. No one knows when it will explode. Shouldn't it be very low-key at this time? Why did you send notes to various prefectures and name them to the ladies in each prefecture?
"Miss, many boudoir daughters from aristocratic families have received the notice." Yu Jie had already asked Aunt Duan about it before, but now seeing Qin Wanru's pensive look on her face, she hurriedly explained.
"There are many young ladies from aristocratic families? Are there others besides young ladies from aristocratic families?" Qin Wanru was stunned, her long eyelashes fluttered twice, and her eyes became darker and darker.
"There is no one else except the ladies from the aristocratic family. It is said that Prince Cheng is going to choose a concubine! So I invite the ladies from each mansion to attend the banquet at Prince Cheng's Mansion!" Qingyue continued.
"Choose a concubine? Doesn't it mean that King Cheng is devoted to the Buddha and has no interest in the world? How come he suddenly wants to choose a concubine at this time?" Qin Wanru said to Aunt Zheng on the side in confusion. For such palace matters, Aunt Zheng He must know something.
Hearing Qin Wanru's question, Grandma Zheng nodded, shook her head, and then replied amidst everyone's doubtful eyes: "Miss, His Highness Prince Cheng did not get married in the past. He said he had a fiancée when he was young. Yes, and the relationship was pretty good. Later, his fiancée died without getting married. King Cheng was so shocked that he decided to become a monk. He was very determined at the time. Why is he suddenly planning to establish a concubine now?"
Grandma Zheng also felt confused.
"Mommy, tell me what happened back then!" Qin Wanru asked curiously.
