Greetings, Ninth Uncle
Chapter 214
Although Cheng Yuanjing is not a naturalized person, but the position of the prince is not a joke. He has been missing for fourteen years, and suddenly a person appears and says that he is the prince. Who can be at ease? If the emperor hadn't known the behind-the-scenes news, I'm afraid he wouldn't accept it easily.
Getting married and starting a family is indeed a magic weapon to calm people's hearts and ease conflicts. Besides, Cheng Yuanjing had disappeared for many years, and the court had quarreled several times about the heir.
The emperor originally planned to wait a month or two after he announced that he had found the prince, and then issued an imperial edict to choose a concubine for the prince. However, no matter what, the candidates for the future crown princess must have a clean background, a noble family position, and their father and brother are in high-ranking positions in the court, which is beneficial to the stability of the society.
The Cheng family is obviously not qualified.
The Cheng family has made great achievements in these years, and of course the emperor will reward them, but this does not include making the Cheng family daughter the crown princess. The crown princess has something to do with the country and sets an example for the women of the world. The emperor has already conceived it many times. How can it be so sloppy and sloppy?
The emperor calmed down and asked, "Is this what the Cheng family said? How dare they ask for a favor?"
"No, how can I be such a good person." Cheng Yuanjing had already stood up and stood under the emperor's head, and said, "Yi chūn Hou was careful all his life, even before his death, he kept the secret tightly, how could he have such courage The rest of the Cheng family don't even know it at all, and it's impossible to talk about asking for gratitude."
Cheng Yuanjing paused after speaking, and continued as if nothing had happened: "It's me who really asks for gratitude."
The emperor frowned even more: "What?"
"Last night, a child accidentally fell into the moat, and the eldest girl of the Cheng family jumped into the ice cave to save her. I rescued her." Cheng Yuanjing said, "In this way, I have saved her life. , so let her be the crown princess, just in response to the grace of dripping water."
The emperor first understood, then became furious. No wonder Cheng Yuanjing didn't come last night. It turned out to be jumping into the river to save people. Many signs today can be matched. However, what kind of thing are those dripping graces and springs repaying each other after that?
The emperor said: "The choice of your crown princess is very important, so you don't have to rush it. When you return to the palace, I will make an order to choose a concubine for you. When the ladies and ladies gather, you can choose slowly."
"I know. I have been in the capital for all these years, and I understand all the women in the city." Cheng Yuanjing said, "It just so happens that I have already selected them, so I don't need to make a lot of money, save the people and waste money, and your Majesty will issue a decree together. "
The anger in the emperor's heart grew stronger and stronger, and dissatisfaction gradually appeared on his face. The emperor restrained himself and said, "After all, you and her bear the status of uncle and nephew. After the announcement, how will you please the world?"
"Those are all fake." Cheng Yuanjing said calmly, "Besides, giving me and her a marriage just proves that I'm not from the Cheng family?"
"You!" The emperor was very angry, "Uncle married a niece, do you think this reputation is good?"
"She's not, why not?"
The emperor was so angry that he couldn't sit still any longer. He stood up directly from the seat and scolded: "Absurd!"
The emperor could see it, although Cheng Yuanjing had no contact with the Cheng family, but after all these years, he had been entrusted to the Cheng family. However, there are so many women in the world, why should one woman ruin her reputation and even block the way in the future.
The emperor originally planned to let Cheng Yuanjing leave the capital, but after disappearing for a period of time, he returned as Li Chengjing. It was said to the outside world that the secret army sent by the emperor back then searched for many years, and finally found the prince among the people, and Cheng Yuanjing was naturally dead forever.
A person's appearance cannot deceive anyone. When Li Chengjing returns, seeing his appearance, someone must be able to guess what is going on. But some things can be tacitly announced, but there is no need to announce it to the world. After all, the people neither see the prince nor know the ninth son of the Cheng family. That being the case, why not find a way that everyone has a face.
The emperor will compensate the Cheng family in the future, but this must be a long time later. On the bright side, the prince must have nothing to do with the Cheng family. Once Cheng Yuanjing married the eldest daughter of the Cheng family, he would be bound to the Cheng family forever. No matter how powerful the emperor is, he can't stop everyone's mouth. Slowly, everyone will find that the prince and the former Ninth Uncle of the Cheng family seem to be exactly the same.
At that time, the emperor's so-called claim that he had gone through hardships to find the lost prince from the people would no longer be tenable.
This is naturally what the emperor does not want to see. The emperor took a deep breath, suppressed his anger and sat down again. For twenty years, he is the best at forbearance. The emperor's voice was mixed with anger and anger, and asked: "If you insist on marrying the daughter of the Cheng family, what will you do about your identity? You also know that this kind of thing can't be hidden from the public, and someone will always find out that you are Cheng Yuanjing."
Cheng Yuanjing lowered his eyebrows and said slowly, "If you can't hide it, then you can't hide it."
The emperor frowned: "What did you say?"
"I am Cheng Yuanjing, and everyone in the court knows well. If so, why should I deceive myself and let everyone accompany me to act? His Majesty once met Cheng Yuanjing at Xiangji Temple, so he became suspicious and found that Cheng Yuanjing was the missing prince. It's all right. I'm going to return directly as Cheng Yuanjing, isn't it more convincing than rearranging a set of traces?"
