"Royal Father, there is indeed a misunderstanding!"
Murong Yun could not bear to listen any longer, so he opened his mouth to argue. However, when the words reached his mouth, he didn't know what to say.
"What misunderstanding?"
The emperor asked in a gloomy tone. Murong Yun hesitated. After all, Lin Mei had admitted it herself, and the people of the capital were dissatisfied with Luo Jianjian. As of now, it was also the truth.
"There are still a lot of things that are unclear about the murder of the owner of the slave. Furthermore, the murder had nothing to do with Jianjian at all! "
"Yes, your majesty!" You have also seen this subject's daughter. She is kind-hearted and somewhat naughty. But they would never incite anyone to harm others! "
Prime Minister Luo also quickly argued for Luo Jianjian. He only had this one daughter of his, so nothing could happen to her again.
However, on the other side, General Yue was still unrelenting.
"Did His Highness the Crown Prince and Prime Minister Luo not see the reaction of the common folk towards Luo Jianjian?" Your Majesty, regardless of whether the murder was directly related to Luo Jianjian, that Lin Mei had already admitted that she was the murderer. It was also a fact that the people of the capital complained to Luo Jianjian. "If you insist on letting Luo Jianjian be Crown Princess, then the hearts of the people in the capital will be in chaos!"
"Your Majesty, think twice!"
General Yue and the officials on his side kneeled on the ground, begging the emperor to reject the marriage between Luo Jianjian and Murong Yun.
The Emperor frowned in deep thought, hesitant and indecisive.
"Royal Father …"
"Alright!"
Murong Yun was about to say something else, but he was interrupted by the emperor in a displeased manner. Murong Yun felt uneasy in his heart. Looking at the expression on the emperor's face, it would be difficult to deal with him.
"General Yue's words are reasonable, it's just that …" The Crown Prince had been engaged to Luo Jianjian for half a year, and the Crown Prince's position was usually accompanied by Crown Princess's. The so-called Middle Palace is not settled, the world is not even. "
"This subject has a suitable candidate for recommendation!"
As soon as the emperor's voice fell, the second rank high official kneeling behind General Yue suddenly shouted loudly. Apparently, he had been prepared.
"Who is it?"
"This person is General Yue's only daughter, Yue Qiqi. In terms of status, Yue Qiqi was General Yue's daughter, and she could be considered to be a match to the royal family. In terms of character, this Yue Qiqi was a lady of honor. Not only was she proficient in the art of zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting, her swordsmanship was also superb. "The way you do things is also well-behaved, unlike the Prime Minister's daughter who suddenly shows up and doesn't know what's important and what's not."
"Who are you talking about?"
Prime Minister Luo couldn't help but feel angry when he heard that second rank officer not only embraced General Yue's daughter but also did not forget to belittle his own daughter.
"Alright!"
The emperor impatiently stopped the argument between the two and looked at Murong Yun again.
"Crown Prince, what suggestions do you have?"
"I will not marry Yue Qiqi. The wedding was given by Royal Father. It would be against the rules if he went back on his word! "
"Who said I'm going back on my word?"
His Majesty's words caused all the officials to be stunned. The Emperor smiled lightly.
"At that time, I bestowed you and Luo Jianjian with a marriage, but I never said that you would definitely be the principal wife, did I? Thus, Crown Princess decided to give General Yue's daughter, Yue Qiqi, as the secondary wife to Luo Jianjian. "Then, wouldn't it be solved just like that?"
"Royal Father, you can't!"
Murong Yun got anxious and directly kneeled on the ground.1
"Royal Father, between Jianjian and I, there must never be a third person! I will only marry Jianjian. If Royal Father insisted on forcing me, I would rather not have the position of the crown prince! "
"What did you say?"
The Emperor roared angrily, standing up from his dragon throne in a hurry.
"Murong Yun!" Do you think this position is a joke? If you say so, just do it. Where did you put my words? I am the Son of Heaven, and my words are the royal decree! His words were irrefutable! It was decided that Yue Qiqi would enter the sect together with Crown Princess and Luo Jianjian as the secondary wives. They would get married at the end of the month! "If you dare to disobey, I will kill Luo Jianjian!"
"Royal Father!"
"Withdraw!"
The emperor turned around and left in a displeased manner. Murong Yun, who wanted to catch up to them, was stopped by Prime Minister Luo.
"His Highness the Crown Prince, don't be rash. His Majesty is furious right now. If you continue to go, I'm afraid it will implicate Jianjian's life." This old man only has this one daughter, please consider her. "
Although Prime Minister Luo felt wronged, he still didn't dare to anger the Emperor. Murong Yun frowned. He never thought that things would turn out like this.
He didn't even know how he could go back and talk to Luo Jianjian.
"But, His Highness the Crown Prince. I understand Jianjian's temper, but even if she's willing to be a secondary wife, please forgive me for being unreasonable. Jianjian is the only daughter of Prime Minister's Mansion right now, and absolutely cannot be a concubine. "
Prime Minister Luo's intention was that even if Luo Jianjian agreed to be Murong Yun's secondary wife, he still wouldn't agree. Murong Yun wanted to say something but stopped. He saw Prime Minister Luo sigh and walk away without looking back.
The imperial edict had fallen into the Prime Minister's Mansion, so Luo Jianjian, who was in the Eighth Prince's Mansion, did not know that she was going to be the secondary wife.
On the other hand, Yue Qiqi, after receiving the imperial edict, knew that she was going to marry Murong Yun as Crown Princess, and was extremely happy.
"Father!" Thank you, Father! Father, you're too awesome! Her daughter had fought with Luo Jianjian for so many days, but he still hadn't been able to defeat her. He didn't expect that the moment his father made a move, he would have a complete victory! Your daughter thanks Dad! "
Yue Qiqi hugged General Yue sweetly and acted like a spoiled child. Seeing her daughter so happy, the smile on General Yue's face couldn't stop.
"Good girl, this is not difficult. If you have to blame something, you can only blame Luo Jianjian for being restless. If Miss Prime Minister's Mansion doesn't do it properly, she has to do it outside to stir up some trouble.
"Daddy is right! However, if they were to get married at the end of the month, I want the most beautiful wedding dress in Tianqi City. Father, tell me, should I go to the Eighth Prince's Mansion first … No no, the crown prince's household wants to discuss our marriage? "
Yue Qiqi had an impatient look on her face, while General Yue smiled lovingly.
"Silly girl, where is there a woman who would always run to the other side before marriage? You just stay in the mansion obediently. Your mother will take care of everything for you, so just obediently wait to be Crown Princess! However, the things that happened today were so smooth. I truly must thank that Madam for that. "
"That's right, Dad. That lady's idea is really good. If she wants to be our house's housekeeper, then let her be! "
"En, it doesn't matter. You can decide on this matter!"
"Thank you, Father!"
On the other side, Murong Yun returned to his Eighth Prince's Mansion and stood at the entrance of the residence for a long time. He couldn't think of a good way to put it, and he couldn't think of any other way.
Putting Luo Jianjian aside, he would never agree to let her be his side concubine. But how could he get rid of it? If he took Luo Jianjian away, what would happen to Royal Mother?
However, if they didn't fight back, the matter of Royal Father killing Jianjian wouldn't be a joke.
"The Prince is back? Prince, why didn't you come in? "
Feng Qing looked at Murong Yun, who was standing at the door, and shouted without knowing what was going on. Luo Jianjian, who was in the hall, came over when she heard the commotion.
