Chapter 642 Settled, Marriage by Decree


    When the Emperor’s decree came down, the entire capital was confused.


    His Majesty has given His Majesty the King of Ennd a marriage, to which family? The untalented, unattractive, eye-damaged Fourth Miss from Minister Qu’s mansion? The youngdy who was withdrawn from the Marquis of Yongning’s house?


    In the previous case of the Qu Mansion, Yu killed this Fourth Miss Qu’s birth mother?


    This … couldn’t be a misprint, could it?


    Many families can not help but send people to Qu House to inquire about the news, why not go to the King of Ennd House, dare?


    That King of Ennd is notorious, who dares to bump into him when he doesn’t know anything, besides, is the King of Ennd satisfied? If he is not satisfied, will he go to the pce to make trouble?


    The prying news finally got the exact news, it’s true, the emperor really gave this Qu fourth youngdy a marriage, and the one who gave it was the King of Ennd?


    The first words that came to everyone’s mind were what’s wrong with the Emperor? This is by the King of Ennd angry or what, how can agree to give such a woman to the King of Ennd to give marriage.


    There are well-informed, before vaguely aware of this matter, but do not understand before that is said to be just a side consort? How did it be the main consort?


    Not well-informed, it ispletely blindfolded, there are still people guessing that because before the King of Ennd offended the emperor, the emperor will give such a marriage.


    Didn’t they say that King Ying had only just been rewarded by the Emperor, and that even his title had been raised, so it’s hard to believe that he was promoted in the dark?


    Equally dumbfounded is the Qu Mansion, after Qu Zhizhen received the decree, he sat in the study almost dumbfounded, it’s the main consort, it’s actually the main consort, how is this possible?


    But the fact that it was put there was that it was the rightful consort, the rightful consort of the King of Ennd!


    Unlike the youngest daughter that barely a concubine consort, this is the real King Ying’s rightful consort, this is Qu Zhi Zhen before in any case could not have imagined, his first thought is actually King Ying this is what happened?


    The second idea felt that it should be the King of Ennd is not willing to marry, before agreeing to his own daughter into the house, and then randomly find someone to fill this position of the main consort.


    The ministers in the court know that the emperor for the King of Ennd’s marriage, are worried about white hair, favor this has not been loose.


    So it’s because King Ying agreed to let his daughter be a side consort, and the Emperor felt that since he loosened up and couldn’t find any other woman to make King Ying loosen up after that, he directly mentioned his daughter as the main consort?


    Thinking this way, Qu Zhizhen breathed a sigh of relief, which was followed by great joy, the father of the side consort and the father of the main consort were certainly different, that was essentially the difference between a wife and a concubine.


    Even if this King of Ennd might not intend to recognize himself as his father-inw, in the eyes of others, he was the King of Ennd’s father-inw.


    “Second Master, Mrs. Tai invites you over.” In the midst of rejoicing, the boy servant entered and reported.


    Qu Zhizhen stood up and walked inside, such a thing, not to mention his mother, even he himself was in a stirring mood for a while.


    “Eldest, didn’t you say it was a side consort?” As expected, the first time the dowagerdy saw Qu Zhizhen, she asked urgently.


    Qu Zhizhen waved his hand for the others to go down and sat down on a chair to the side, saying smugly, “Mother, it may be that the King of Ennd did not continue to loosen his lips any further, and the Emperor is in a hurry.”


    There’s no other woman to be the main consort, and the side consort is directly promoted to the main consort?


    The dowagerdy was a bit skeptical about this statement, and always felt as if things shouldn’t be this way, but now that she thought about it this incident was indeed considered a good thing.


    No matter whose side consort it is, it’s still a concubine!


    It would be a great joy to be the main consort now.


    “Although our house had prepared a dowry before, this portion is much less now.” After the great joy, Mrs. Qu had a new worry.


    Before the preparation of the dowry is indeed quite a lot, Linlin total before the small Yue’s dowry left all back, although someck, the House has made up for some, and then added a lot, but even if then make up, and then add, the dowry of the King’s House of the King’s Consort, or feel a little less.


    The idea of the dowagerdy, also feel that this King of Ennd on their granddaughter may not be too reliable, no wonder that day also deliberatelye over to see, if the shadow girl grows less than he means, today also did not have this decree down, when the granddaughter of the family can be how to deal with!


    Mrs. think about it is annoying, more feel in this dowry above should be better, women married, have a dowry, can have the courage, although this is on the King of Ennd is still weak, but it is better than less!


    The dowagerdy thought so, which is why she deliberately went to have her son invited over.


    “The ones Yu prepared for Third Maiden early on also add some in.” Qu Zhizhen thought about it and said in a deep voice.


    “But … but didn’t you say before that it still needs to be sent to King Jing’s residence?” Mrs. Qu hesitantly said.


    “This time, this time, Yan yatou’s side … to send is to send some, but she is just a concubine consort less, others do not know, shadow yatou’s side has to be tight first, always have to let His Royal Highness the King of Ennd satisfied.” Qu Zhizhen sighed, remembering Pei Yuanjun’s person, feeling that he was still a little smarter.


    At least the face should not let her daughter have less dowry, even to be worthy of this Ying Wangfei’s status.


    “Mother, this thing is not urgent in a moment, this go ritual process, how to also have a year and a half, the prince before early in the go ritual, the Ministry of Rites side also lined up number, this will also but go not many rituals, the King of Ennd’s rtives only now announced, naturally have to be a little slower than the prince’s.”


    Seeing his mother troubled, Qu Zhizhen added.


    The dowagerdy listened and nodded, also felt this gift, “Then I’ll buy some more for the shadow girl, we can’t lose the shadow girl.”


    The dowagerdy thought about some of the things in her own private treasury, but also can take out some more, have to let their own little granddaughter to marry in style.


    After discussing some details, the mother and son went about their business.


    “What, the King of Ennd’s main consort?” Qi Guo Gong House, Mrs. Qi heard the message outside, shocked dumbfounded, she had guessed before Qu Mo Ying’s affinity, the so-called look at how can not be good, did not think that only not long, the emperor issued a decree.


    She subconsciously looked at the old Duke of State.


    The old Duke of State was equally shocked, he also didn’t know about this matter and lowered his head in consternation, for marrying King Ying Pei Yuanjun, he actually didn’t think highly of it.


    At that time, even if they were wronged, with Pei Yuanjun’s character, none of the Qu Mansion would dare to stand up for Qu Mo Ying.


    Hadn’t there been rumors before that Princess Ying would be the daughter of that Auxiliary General?


    “Your Highness, what do you think?” The dowagerdy waved her hand, and the maids and grannies went down one by one.


    “Marrying the King of Ennd …” The old Duke of State sighed powerlessly, once again feeling powerless, this is no longer something he can intervene if he wants to.


    “Does the Duke of State also feel that marrying King Ying is inappropriate?” The dowagerdy lowered her voice and asked.


    “The Emperor’s decree has already been given, and it will be difficult to change it.” The old Duke of State said indifferently, crossed his old wife’s eyes and sighed.


    “I know …,” the dowagerdy was a bit annoyed and vaguely uneasy, “when I invited this fourth miss from the Qu Mansion over before, she was not close to our house… …”


    “She knows nothing, so why should she be close to our house?” The old Duke of State said with dissatisfaction.


    “But … but she … she …” The dowagerdy wanted to say, but felt that there was no way to say, after all, she then did not really recognize this matter.


    “Well, let’s leave it at that! Since she has a good home, it is also some of her blessings in.” The old Duke of State sighed heavily, “It’s all my fault, I will personally express my guilt to her … when I reach the Nine Springs … in the future.”


    “The Duke of State … you … you were confused at the time!” The dowagerdy’s eyes reddened again, and she said in a hateful voice.


    Although the two people did not pick out, but the meaning of this will not understand, just each have their own suffering, a time everyone said very implicit.


    “Now, it’s toote to say anything, I’m so regretful!” The old Duke’s eyes were also slightly astringent, heaved a sigh, as if he had aged a lot all of a sudden, the whole person had little spirit leaning back, both eyes dazedly looking into the air with a bitter smile.


    “Duke of State, don’t be too sad, it can always be remedied.” After all, they were an old couple for many years, the dowagerdy sighed and opened up for him.


    “Prepare an extra dowry, not less than Jingyu’s side.” The old Duke of State closed his eyes and slowly said.


    “This … how can this be, Jingyu is our own granddaughter, she … she …” The dowagerdy although objected, but the words could no longer be said here.


    Who is she? She’s her own granddaughter, and it’s not like Liu Jingyu actually has much to do with her.


    Thinking of this, Mrs. Tai couldn’t help but murmur again, “Injustice, what an injustice!”


    “Find a name, prepare more dowry, no more, it’s all my fault, the child is innocent, it’s me who harmed her, it’s me who harmed both of their mothers.” The old Duke of State was guilt-ridden.


    “But what will people think of Jingyu? She’s marrying into the Eastern Pce, the future Crown Princess, no matter if it’s from her status or her rtionship with the Duke of Qi’s family, it shouldn’t be inferior to the Qu family’s dowry!” Although Mrs. Tai’s heart ached for Qu Mo Ying, she still raised an objection.


    “Just prepare more for her, originally it was us … who owed her, Jingyu and their mother and daughter also owed their mother and daughter.” The old Duke of State said very clearly, without a trace of hesitation, if he could, he still wanted to do justice to that pair of mother and daughter.


    If it wasn’t for his switching behavior back then, if it wasn’t for his inaction back then, if it wasn’t for him going to the pce and begging for a marriage grant back then, or things would have beenpletely different, he was guilty of making mistake after mistake.


    Even if she is her own daughter, she can’t use her life to pay herself back.


    “What if we let people find out something …? Jingyu’s current status is more than tolerant of negligence, and if something happens to us, her position as the Crown Princess might not be so secure.”


    “It’s alle to this time, you still consider these, you think about who you can afford? Jingyu mother and daughter … Jingyu mother and daughter if not robbed their mother and daughter’s position, and how will have the opportunity in front of you, and how can be what Prince Consort, now actually still want to consider them?”


    The old Duke of the country suddenly stormed up, suddenly pped the table and stood up, roared, finished turning around and striding away …
