After rebirth, the Queen of Madness has gone against the will of Heaven

Chapter 181 Marriage Grant



Chapter 181 Marriage Grant

Yu Zhengsha's old face turned red with anger, but he had to maintain a serious and solemn expression. It was really difficult for him. This was probably the most embarrassing time in Yu Zhengsha's life.

Yu Qingli, it was all because of Yu Qingli again!

Yu Zhengsha almost felt that the purpose of giving birth to this daughter seemed to be to cause trouble for him. Not to mention the few people who were jealous of each other in the court, even the one sitting in the upper position, if he knew that the woman who performed the dance that day was his daughter Yu Qingli, who knows what kind of storm would be caused.

Seeing him stunned, the emperor coughed as a reminder. Yu Zhengsha quickly regained his composure and glanced coldly at the ministers who were looking for a laugh. "As for my daughter's marriage, I will make the final decision myself. You don't need to worry about it."

As Yu Zhengsha spoke, he was thinking about how to end this farce. If this farce continued to develop like this, he really didn't know what the outcome would be.

"The Queen is here to see you..."

With the eunuch's report, the situation in the court was broken.

The harem is not allowed to participate in politics. This is the rule set since the founding of Canghe. However, the queen went to court at this time, which inevitably caused criticism. The officials in the court could not help but whisper to each other, and even the emperor Murong Shileng's face fell. The queen's behavior was really incredible.

A figure in bright red appeared in front of everyone. Although she was no longer a young girl, the elegance and grace she exuded was far beyond the reach of those simple little girls!

Empress Li bowed gracefully to the Emperor, then said with a smile, "Your Majesty, please forgive me for my impoliteness, but instead of letting Prime Minister Yu make the decision today, how about I make the decision for Qingli?"

The ministers in the court looked at each other in bewilderment. Just as someone was about to retort, they heard Queen Li continue, "In fact, I am speaking on behalf of my late sister to make the decision for Qingli. I am also Feng'er's mother. Besides, this matter is also a family matter. What do you think, Your Majesty?!"

Murong Shiling, who had been very dissatisfied with the Queen's sudden appearance, suddenly changed his mind after hearing these words. Perhaps the Queen was right. It would not be a bad idea to downplay the impact of this matter and turn it into an ordinary family matter.

Murong Yanhui's frown raised again, and it seemed that her previous worries and troubles had been swept away.

"Empress, it seems there's something else going on with your niece's marriage. But since you've arrived before the palace today, why don't you tell everyone the secret behind it?"

The Queen nodded slightly, and Tang Yi looked at her with interest, "Oh, I'd like to see who the Queen is going to marry Miss Yu to?!"

Although his tone was calm, his eyes were very sharp. Even Queen Li couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

But at this moment, she knew that she had no way out. Moreover, this was also a great opportunity, an opportunity to use Yu Zhengsha's power. Although she knew that her brother-in-law had always been hypocritical and even secretly supported the prince, if Feng'er wanted to seize the throne, she had to obtain this person's support, even if it was not his willing support!

Queen Li smiled and pulled out a long-prepared engagement from her sleeve. She said, "Your Highness, Crown Prince of Dongtang, I'm truly sorry. As the saying goes, one should select the virtuous without avoiding relatives, and this also applies to matchmaking. In fact, my son Murong Feng and Qingli have been engaged since childhood, so I'm afraid I have to ask Your Highness, Crown Prince of Dongtang, to give up.

What she said was well-reasoned, especially the marriage certificate which directly determined Yu Qingli's life. Yu Zhengsha's face changed. He didn't expect that the queen would go this far for Murong Feng. It really surprised him. But now it seems that Yu Qingli, the useless chess piece, is going to be abandoned after all. It is a good match for the abandoned pawn to marry the abandoned prince.

Yu Zhengsha was thinking secretly in his heart, but he observed the emperor's expression calmly. He did not miss the approval in Murong Shiling's eyes at all. He lowered his eyebrows instantly. It seemed that the emperor agreed with this decision!

"I don't believe it! Just because the Queen said she has been engaged, it's not that easy for me to give up Lili!"

Murong Yanhui questioned, what a bullshit engagement, the woman he liked was his!

Murong Feng was overjoyed. Although his mother hadn't even glanced at him the entire time, he knew she was trying to secure Yu Zhengsha for him! Now that he had Prime Minister Yu's support at court, he had no reason to worry about his plans. Besides, he still had a secret weapon, didn't he?

His vague eyes glanced at Murong Cheng, who had been standing in front of the hall in a trance. Murong Cheng was startled by the look and tensed up involuntarily.

Could it be that Murong Feng wants to fulfill his promise now?

Seeing the hint in Murong Feng's eyes, Murong Cheng hesitated. He knew that this matter was far from as simple as a simple arranged marriage. If he spoke at this moment, it would be equivalent to pushing Yu Zhengsha, who supported him, to Murong Feng's side with his own hands.

However, thinking of what Murong Feng had said at Jinghong Music House before, Murong Cheng felt helpless again.

Murong Cheng took a step forward with his eyebrows lowered. Murong Yan looked back with a cold look. He obviously didn't miss Murong Feng's little trick just now. But he didn't understand when did they become a group?!

Seeing Murong Cheng approach, Yu Zhengsha was delighted. The Crown Prince had actually shown up. Did this mean that Yu Qingli was still a chess piece?!

Murong Shiling and Queen Li were also very surprised. Why did the usually taciturn Crown Prince seem to have something to say today? Could he also be interested in that Yu Qingli?

But obviously, unlike what Murong Shiling and the others imagined, Murong Cheng was not speaking for himself. He said coldly, "Father, can you listen to your son's opinion?!"

Murong Shiling nodded and said, "Cheng'er, just say whatever you want!"

Murong Yan raised his eyebrows. He was also very interested in what Murong Cheng would say.

Murong Cheng secretly gritted his teeth, steeled his resolve, and spoke, "Our Canghe is a country that values etiquette the most. Respecting propriety and chastity is our Canghe tradition. Judging from what happened today, it's clear that my eldest brother and Miss Yu are in love. But it seems that my youngest uncle's romantic nature has taken over, and he's actually vying for my eldest brother, regardless of his status. If this gets out, wouldn't it ruin the reputation of our royal family?!"

Murong Cheng didn't dare to look up, but even with his head lowered, he could still feel Murong Yanhui's murderous gaze, and he couldn't help feeling guilty. The young uncle had always treated him well, but he had no choice about what happened today.

Murong Cheng turned his gaze and looked at Tang Yi, the Crown Prince of Dong Tang. He said, "Crown Prince Tang, as the saying goes, a gentleman does not take away what others like. Since Miss Yu and my eldest brother are willing, and they have a prior engagement, why don't you do a favor?"

"Good! Good! Good!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard Murong Yan applauding and praising, saying three "good" words in a row, but not one of them was with a smile.

Murong Cheng felt a splitting headache, and the guilt in his heart almost overwhelmed him. But if he didn't obey Murong Feng's arrangements for the time being, what else could he do? He thought to himself, "Little uncle, I'm sorry!"

Murong Yanhui scoffed coldly, "I never expected the usually silent Crown Prince to be so eloquent. He truly is the type to make a splash! What do you think, Your Majesty?!"

Murong Shiling sighed and said, "Alright, my royal brother, I know you've always loved beauties, but this Miss Yu is the Prime Minister's eldest daughter. How can I tolerate your reckless behavior?"

"Your Majesty, how do you know that this minister isn't serious this time?" Murong Yan asked back. "I've been wandering around the world of beauties for many years, and I've seen countless beauties like this, but this is the first time I've met one that I've been moved by. Your Majesty, are you unwilling to even grant me this small request?"

Murong Shileng's face also darkened. In front of these ministers and even the Crown Prince of Dong Tang, he, the emperor, really had no dignity at all.

But judging by Murong Yanhui's expression, if he didn't agree to this, he might become even more rebellious in the future. But?! Isn't this another kind of temptation?

Thinking of this, Murong Shiling said, "Royal brother, don't be too obsessed with everything, let alone a mere woman."

Murong Yanhui sneered, "Your Majesty, please don't beat around the bush and just announce the result directly!"

"presumptuous!"

Murong Yanhui's attitude irritated Murong Shiling. Was he too kind to Murong Yanhui, causing him to speak to him in such a tone?

Murong Yan had just finished his reply when he seemed to regret it. How could he have ruined the image he had accumulated over the course of his life for such a trivial matter? He couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart. This Yu Qingli was truly his calamity!

Now, Murong Shiling will probably become more suspicious of his purpose, right?

Simply powerless, Murong Yan replied in a veiled manner, "Royal brother, I don't care. I want you to give Yu Qingli to me today. I swear, from now on, I will definitely turn over a new leaf and become a new person!"

Seeing Murong Yanhui's scoundrel look, Murong Shiling lowered his guard a little. It seemed he was being overly suspicious. How could the King of Yan show such a horrified expression? At most, he would just beg for mercy like a scoundrel.

But today's matter, from the moment the Queen entered the palace, was already a foregone conclusion! Yu Qingli, you can't marry anyone other than Murong Feng!

Murong Shiling's expression froze, and he said sternly, "Now that things have come to this, I believe there is no need for me to say anything more! Come, draft the decree!"

Murong Shiling gave the order, and soon a palace servant came with pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and issued an edict on the spot, "By the will of Heaven, the Emperor decrees that the Yu family's daughter, Qingli, is beautiful, dignified, virtuous, and is hereby granted in marriage to the eldest prince, Murong Feng. It is hoped that the two families will form a harmonious alliance!"

Murong Feng was delighted and knelt down to receive the order, "Your son accepts the order and thanks you!"

Murong Yanhui's expression was extremely cold, and his eyes were almost murderous, but in the end he just clenched his fists and saluted the emperor, saying, "I feel unwell and will withdraw from the court now!"

After he finished speaking, he turned away without waiting for Murong Shiling's consent!
