There was silence in the imperial study room.

The ministers who discussed the matter included Prime Minister Gu, the three ministers of the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Husbandry, and the Ministry of Personnel, Shen Yushi, Wang Yushi and other ministers.

At this time, all the ministers were thinking about something, and they all wondered what happened that made the emperor so angry.

Emperor Zhaocheng said with a frosty face: "The Queen of Jin and several princes have handed over the documents, and the etiquette department is ready to entertain the guests. It is related to the diplomatic relations between the two countries, and the palace banquet must be grand and thoughtful, 놊 Xu눕."

The Minister of Rites bowed down to accept the order: "I obey the order."

After saying that, he bowed carefully and left.

Emperor Zhaocheng stared silently at the memorial that he threw aside. He uttered a word and leaned back on the dragon chair. Thinking of the distinguished guests who were about to arrive in the Mu Kingdom, his eyebrows darkened again.

How could Yan Li offend so many people recently?

Jiang Jingyue has been granted a marriage to the prince as she wished, but she still opposes Yan Li at every turn. How does Jiang Jingyue discipline his children and grandchildren?

And Princess Yu.

Emperor Zhaocheng suddenly remembered something, his eyes fell on Prime Minister Gu in front of him, and his tone of voice distinguished between joy and anger: "Prime Minister Gu."

Prime Minister Gu was startled and quickly bowed in response: "I'm here."

"Is your daughter too young?" Emperor Zhaocheng frowned slightly, "Has the marriage been decided yet?"

Prime Minister Gu's heart skipped a beat, and he replied cautiously: "Reporting to the Emperor, my daughter has not yet decided to get married."

Emperor Zhaocheng hummed and said thoughtfully: "My sixth son is now full-fledged and has not yet been married. How about betrothing your daughter to him?"

Prime Minister Gu knelt down: "Your Majesty, minister..."

"What?" Emperor Zhaocheng looked at him, with a hint of pressure in his eyes, "Is my son worthy of your daughter?"

Prime Minister Gu's heart sank, and he quickly bowed and saluted: "I dare you, I dare you!"

"In this case, the matter is settled." Emperor Zhaocheng's tone was calm, but he refused, "The marriage should be decided after the prince gets married. After you go home today, you can let Mrs. Gu prepare for the marriage. I A royal edict will be issued to confer marriage, and the wedding will be held at any time when the date is set."

Prime Minister Gu was in an ice cellar for a while. His sister was Concubine Gu, and the Gu family had always supported the fourth prince under the concubine's knees.

But the emperor gave his only daughter in marriage to the sixth prince.

They say the Sacred Heart is unpredictable.

How is the Sacred Heart so unpredictable? Even with his eyes closed, he knew that the emperor deliberately wanted him to face a dilemma.

The emperor's mind is always unstoppable.

Prime Minister Gu kowtowed slowly: "I obey your order."

"Everyone, please step aside." Emperor Zhaocheng waved his hand, obviously in a good mood, "Leave me alone."

The ministers saluted one after another: "I take my leave."

Emperor Zhaocheng raised his eyebrows and rubbed his eyebrows, leaning on the dragon chair alone, his eyebrows deep, and he knew what he was thinking.

Xiao Changhai came back after finishing his work, walked up behind him quietly, and pressed his eyebrows with both hands: "The emperor has been too tired lately? It's time to rest. Only by taking good care of your body can you govern the country, and the ministers can Peace of mind."

Emperor Zhaocheng closed his eyes: "Xiao Changhai."

"The slave is here."

"There has been a turbulent undercurrent among the women of the Imperial City's aristocratic families recently?"

Xiao Changhai was shocked, "How could the emperor..."

"It seems that you have also heard a little bit about it." Emperor Zhaocheng opened his eyes and turned to look at him, "Tell me about it."

"I dare to deceive the emperor. I have heard some rumors recently." Xiao Changhai bowed his head respectfully and replied, "Those gossips in the palace occasionally talk about it. I have already punished them."

Emperor Zhaocheng asked: "What did they talk about?"

Xiao Changhai thought for a while and answered truthfully: "Since Nanyang Gong was given a marriage to Prince 깇, there have been rumors outside that the women from the aristocratic family may like Nanyang Gong too much, insisting that she is a golden branch and a jade leaf, and was conferred by the emperor. Fake father-in-law, and also said that Nanyang Duke used his status as a public servant to show off his power and show off his power, and he was arrogant..."

"Fake duke?" Emperor Zhaocheng's face darkened, "The duke I personally decreed actually became a fake duke? So is the general I conferred a fake general? Are all those first-grade imperial orders fake? "

"You deserve to die, slave!" Xiao Changhai knelt down and slapped himself twice in the mouth, "Your Majesty, please calm down."

Everyone in the palace knelt down: "Your Majesty, calm down!"

"My holy edict turns out to be fake in their eyes? It's strange that after Yan Li was made a princess, they all still put her in their eyes. That's it! It's really an eye-opener for me!" Zhao Zhao Emperor Cheng sneered repeatedly, which made him extremely angry, "What kind of occasions has Yan Li been to recently?"

"Nanyang Gong went to the Prime Minister's Mansion some time ago. He was invited by the Gu family's legitimate daughter." Xiao Changhai lowered his head and reported the facts in detail. He dared to lie and conceal it. "I heard that the Eighth Prince also went there that day. The two counties of Prince Yu’s Mansion and Prince Xian’s Mansion bullied Duke Nanyang to his face, and even threw tea into Duke Nanyang’s face——”

"This is simply unreasonable!" Emperor Zhaocheng slapped the imperial case and became furious, "Why did you say these things so early?"

Xiao Changhai knelt on the ground tremblingly: "I thought it was all a trivial matter between my daughter's family, so I didn't dare to say anything. But at that time, Duke Nanyang might have been so angry that he slapped Muya County, Princess Yu. It was probably out of resentment that I invited Duke Nanyang to Prince Yu’s Mansion, saying he wanted to apologize in person..."

"Apologise in person!" Emperor Zhaocheng said angrily, "The way to apologize in person is to plot against an innocent little girl and try to make her become Mu Wenxuan's concubine?"

Xiao Changhai knelt on the ground, afraid to speak.

"I really indulge them too much!" Emperor Zhaocheng took a deep breath, his voice as cold as ice, "And the daughter of the Jiang family, I really admire the vision of the Queen and the Prince. They put Yan Li aside and insisted on marrying Jiang Jingyue! I will let them know what will happen to them if they marry a woman with bad conduct!"

Xiao Changhai did not dare to speak.

Emperor Zhaocheng was furious, and after calming down, he thought about the cold eyes Yan Li had received recently, and he knew it was related to Mu Cang.

The daughter of the Gu family was arrogant and proud. Other men were attracted to her, and she was attracted to Prince Mu Cang.

Emperor Zhaocheng was a fool. How could he understand why the daughter of the Gu family was not engaged at the age of sixteen?

In addition to Gu Anxian's love for Mu Cang, I'm afraid Prime Minister Gu himself is also waiting for the benefits of marrying Prince Ji. With 300,000 troops, it's enough to directly support Concubine Gu's son to sit on the throne.

Thinking of this, Emperor Zhaocheng closed his eyes coldly: "Pass on my decree, the princes are not allowed to run out of the palace recently. If anyone commits it again, I will definitely forgive him!"

"Yes."

"I have already granted the marriage of the Gu family's daughter to the sixth prince. You will draft the decree later, one for the Gu family and one for the sixth prince." After Emperor Zhaocheng finished speaking, he added, "The wedding date is set in mid-May. Let Concubine Shu prepare well and make no mistakes."

"Your servant obeys your order."
