Chapter 266 Love Makes People Crazy
Chapter 266 Love Makes People Crazy
For a moment, there was a lot of discussion in the palace.
Everyone said that Concubine Yu made a bad move and she was completely disliked by the emperor.
For a moment, everyone didn't know whether to sympathize or laugh at him. After all, there is a cause for every effect, and this result is not unfair.
Soon, as the wedding day approached, the news spread outside the palace.
In the end, the emperor still took Guan Bao's face into consideration and allocated a house to the Fifth Prince. Otherwise, with the Fifth Prince's property, he would probably have to rely on his father-in-law for support on the day of his wedding.
But not only is the location of this house very bad, it is also pitifully small.
Not only can it not be compared with other royal palaces, it is not even one-third the size of Rebeile Palace. Calling it a palace is an exaggeration.
It's hard for the royal family to have such a remote and small house. It's really a slap in the face of the Fifth Prince.
As soon as this house was moved around, anyone who was not a fool knew that the Fifth Prince was disliked by the Emperor. The people did not know the reason and were speculating.
There was a lot of discussion among the people, and the enthusiasm for the Fifth Prince's wedding was unprecedented.
When Guan Bao found out, he beat his chest and stamped his feet: "Xinrong, tell me, why were you so determined to marry him? Now you have to live a hard life with him."
Given the Fifth Prince's current situation, Guan Bao doesn't even expect him to be crowned a king. It's almost impossible for him to even be crowned a Beizi.
Xinrong didn't expect that the emperor would be so heartless.
What she didn't know was that the Fifth Prince was benefiting from her. If it weren't for Xinrong, the emperor would have wanted to remove this son directly.
It’s a pity that since he has already expressed his position to the emperor, Guanbao cannot go back on his word even if he regrets it. After all, both the emperor and the Empress Dowager have given them the opportunity to cancel the engagement.
If you regret now, you will be like plucking hair from a tiger's head!
Fu Jin was also so worried that she kept crying.
Xinrong is quite open-minded.
"Alright, Father, Mother, marry a chicken, follow the chicken; marry a dog, follow the dog. This is fine. The house is small, so it's less of a worry for my daughter to take care of it. Besides, the good thing about the Fifth Prince's Mansion is that it's not far from our home, so it will be convenient for me to come back in the future."
When he said this, Guan Bao sighed again. He was now being sent out to other places, and he was only able to come back on leave because of his daughter's wedding. After the wedding, he would have to leave again, and he didn't know how many years it would take for him to be transferred back.
Seeing Guan Bao and Fu Jin's worried faces, Xin Rong knelt down and said, "It's my daughter's unfilial nature that has caused you to worry."
Guan Bao sighed, "You know, we're not blaming you, we're just really worried that you'll be wronged."
Xinrong was very confident: "Father, don't worry, your daughter will not be wronged. Besides, Concubine Yu really loves me, and so does the Empress Dowager. Although the Emperor does not allow the Fifth Prince to enter the palace, I can still go to the palace often to pay my respects to the Fifth Prince."
Although it is said that husband and wife are one and share the same fate, she is different. She has her father behind her, so Xinrong is not worried.
Besides, the Fifth Prince is poor, so what does it have to do with Xinrong? She can live comfortably by spending her own dowry. After she gets married, she will be the one in charge of the house. It’s not that bad at all.
Seeing Xinrong's confident look, without any dissatisfaction or worry at all, the old couple finally breathed a sigh of relief.
But the two were still worried about Xinrong, so after discussion they decided to keep Fu Jin in Beijing to protect Xinrong when something happened, and they could only watch themselves suffer in exile.
Almost immediately after the imperial edict was issued, Liu Qing rushed back to the store to report the news.
"Liu Hong! Xiaoyanzi! Big news."
"Brother, what's the matter? Look how fast you're running. Drink some water and slow down."
Liu Hong handed over a cup of tea. Her brother, although a boss after all, still lost his temper when something happened.
"Where's Little Swallow?"
Liu Qing took the teacup and drank it all. At this time, Xiaoyanzi also came out, "Liu Qing, what's the matter?"
"Xiaoyanzi, Concubine Yu is not dead, but because of the hanging incident, the emperor has punished her by confining her to her room."
When Xiaoyanzi heard that Concubine Yu was under house arrest, she was delighted. Doesn't that mean she will never be able to interfere with her and Yongqi again?
But before Xiaoyanzi could be happy, Liu Qing said again.
"Yongqi's wedding is in three or five days. I think it's on the tenth of this month. The emperor said he'd let him leave the palace and start his own residence, but I heard people on the street say that the emperor dislikes the fifth prince and his residence is awful."
Hearing this, Xiaoyanzi wilted for a moment again, "Did Yongqi finally agree to marry Xinrong?"
Liu Qing nodded: "Yes, the engagement has not been cancelled."
"Yongqi also agreed? Yes, Concubine Yu threatened to die, how could a filial man like Yongqi not agree? After all, Concubine Yu is so powerful."
Xiaoyanzi lowered her head, she was very sad. Even though she had expected it, she still couldn't accept it when it really happened.
Is it really true that she and Yongqi have no chance?
Xiaoyanzi didn't want to end it like this, but as things had developed to this point, although she was innocent, outsiders would certainly think that she was the culprit that caused Concubine Yu to commit suicide, and perhaps the Fifth Prince would think so too.
Xiaoyanzi was extremely distressed. She wanted to see Yongqi urgently. She wanted to know whether Yongqi would blame her!
How could Yongqi marry someone else!
No, she doesn't accept it. She doesn't accept Yongqi marrying someone else.
Xiaoyanzi looked up at Liu Qing and Liu Hong and asked, "Do you know any way to see Yongqi?"
When they heard Xiaoyanzi's words, their hearts skipped a beat.
Liu Hong felt like all the words she had said in the past few days were in vain. "Xiao Yanzi, he's getting married soon. Can you please stop being so obsessed?"
"But I just feel sad and can't control my heart. What did I do wrong? What did I do wrong? Liu Hong, tell me."
Seeing Xiaoyanzi crying, Liu Hong sighed: "Xiaoyanzi, you have done nothing wrong. This is our fate. Just accept it and be the happy Xiaoyanzi you used to be. Isn't it good?"
"Oh no! It's all Xinrong's fault! She stole my status as a concubine. I need to ask her why she is so shameless as to steal someone else's man! Is she so short of men?"
"We can't go to the palace, so we can go find that Xinrong, right? Liu Qing, lead the way! Let's go to the residence of that Princess Xinrong and ask her!"
Hearing this, Liu Qing was overwhelmed: "Xiaoyanzi, don't be impulsive!"
Xiaoyanzi simply refused to listen to what Liu Qing and Liu Hong said. She could not accept Yongqi marrying another woman.
So, as long as Xinrong doesn't compete with her for Yongqi, Yongqi can marry her.
Xiaoyanzi dragged Liu Qing out. Liu Qing helplessly clung to the door frame: "Xiaoyanzi, you are making things difficult for me. How can I possibly know where Princess Xinrong's home is? Stop it."
Liu Hong got angry when she saw Xiaoyanzi acting like this. She said a lot of nice things to her in the past few days. She wanted to say all the good things to Xiaoyanzi in her life to please her, but Xiaoyanzi didn't listen to a word she said!
He even has to pick a fight with Xinrong. It's obvious that the Fifth Prince is incompetent and irresponsible. He knows he has no say in his own marriage but still wants to provoke Xiaoyanzi. What does Xinrong, the Princess whose marriage was arranged by the Emperor, have to do with him?
"Xiaoyanzi, can you be more rational?"
After saying that, Liu Hong completely lost her patience and raised her hand to chop Xiaoyanzi on the back of the neck.
Xiaoyanzi fell down softly, and Liu Hong stepped forward, picked her up and walked towards the room.
Liu Qing finally felt relieved. He rubbed his arm that was hurt by Xiaoyanzi's scratching. "What do you think happened, Xiaoyanzi?"
Liu Hong shook her head. "Love makes people crazy."
Liu Qing shuddered. This love was too scary.
