Chapter 561 I Won’t Accompany You

Walking to the hall in the front yard, the hall was brightly lit.

The King of Qi sat there with a look of surprise, while Eunuch Liu was drinking tea awkwardly.

There was also a woman sitting at the bottom, and several maids stood behind her.

Zheng Wan saw Xiao Yu coming in, her eyes fell on him, and her face blushed with shame after just one look.

This young man must be the prince, but she didn't expect the prince to be so handsome.

Zheng Wan's heart beat rapidly when she thought that this would be her husband.

When the King of Qi saw Xiao Yu coming, he said coldly, "Yu'er, this Eunuch Zhao is here to convey the Queen's decree."

Xiao Yu glanced at Eunuch Zhao.

Eunuch Zhao stood in the middle of the hall with a bruised face.

When he was less than 20 miles away from Ping'an City, who knew that there was a broken carriage parked in the middle of the road.

It was dark at night and he couldn't see clearly. When he got to the front, the horse couldn't stop and crashed straight into it.

The horse was knocked to the ground and he rolled out of the carriage, with a bruised face.

The two eunuchs driving the carriage were also injured, but fortunately they were not seriously injured.

They got up, but there was no village or shop in the distance, so they had no choice but to pack up and limp forward.

It was late at night and there was no ride to take, so it took almost three hours to get into the city.

After entering the city, they went to the official post first.

Eunuch Liu had already gone to bed in the official post.

Eunuch Zhao asked someone to wake him up and said he was going to the palace to announce the decree.

Eunuch Liu was embarrassed at the time, "This is not good, it's already late, in another hour or two, it will be dawn!"

"Besides, the wedding of Prince Qi's mansion has been done, it's too late anyway, I think we should wait until dawn to announce the decree."

Eunuch Zhao was stubborn, he knew very well that the carriage blocking the road must be related to Prince Qi's mansion, the more he was not allowed to arrive tonight, the more he insisted on going to the door to announce the decree tonight.

Eunuch Liu had no choice but to have someone call Zheng Wan up, saying that he was going to the mansion to announce the decree.

Zheng Wan got up in a daze, the maid combed her hair and changed her clothes, and carried the baggage, and then the group came to the mansion.

Eunuch Zhao saw Xiao Yu and said in a deep voice: "Prince Qi received the decree."

Xiao Yu had a cold face, lifted his robe and knelt down, and the King of Qi also stood up and knelt in front of Xiao Yu.

Eunuch Zhao then unfolded the imperial edict and read: "The Queen has ordered that the Prince of Qi marry the third daughter of the Duke of Li's mansion, Zheng Wan, as the Prince's principal wife. The marriage must be completed immediately without delay."

After that, he said: "The Queen has also given an oral order. The Emperor said that Miss Gu is a peasant girl and is not fit to be a royal wife. She can be taken as a concubine."

Before Eunuch Zhao finished speaking, Xiao Yu stood up, and the Prince of Qi also stood up with a cold face.

Eunuch Zhao looked at Xiao Yu expressionlessly, "Prince, please accept the edict."

Xiao Yu sneered, "What a bullshit imperial edict, I won't accept it!"

"My Prince's Consort, Xiao Yu, has already been married. Even though she is the Queen, there is no reason to force the marriage!"

He glanced at Zheng Wan, "What the hell is this? Whoever wants to marry can marry, I won't accompany you!"

After saying that, he lifted his robe and strode away.

Zheng Wan lowered her head in embarrassment.

Eunuch Zhao stared blankly at Xiao Yu disappearing at the door, his face bewildered.

The King of Qi looked gloomy, staring at Eunuch Zhao, "My son will not accept this imperial decree, and I will not accept it for him."

"My son has already married, and the three books and six ceremonies are complete. He has worshipped heaven and earth, and worshipped his parents. Miss Gu is my son Yu'er's legal wife."

Eunuch Zhao's cheek twitched, "This, Prince, we are just a messenger. Anyway, I read this imperial decree--
