Chapter 23

Concubine Zhou raised her hand and rubbed her forehead. She explained helplessly, "although Zhou ruo'an is the eldest daughter, her mother died early, and she has no father's love. She can't stand up. How can I let her delay you?"

Song Ci's expression remained unchanged, and Zhou Fei could not see how he was feeling now, so she had to explain her reasons.

"Zhou Ruoyan is also the legitimate daughter of the Zhou family. She is more suitable for you than Zhou ruo'an."

Ling Tianwang finally slowly regained his mind and said, "but Zhou ruo'an, who I saw, was resolute in character and quick in thinking. He was no worse than Zhou ruo'an."

"This..." Listening to Song Ci's narration, Zhou Fei's heart could not help shaking.

"What's more, if my uncle doesn't like it, who dares to say something when he becomes my princess."

"What's more, in today's situation, my father will only think that I am helping him out of difficulties and killing two birds with one stone. Why not do it?"

Looking at Song Ci's gentle face, Princess Zhou sighed a long time.

"It's up to you to decide for yourself," said Princess Zhou in a low voice.

Song Ci's eyes suddenly lit up, smile and salute, turned and left in a hurry.

"Li Gonggong," Song Ci said with a light cough, "I don't know if my father is here?"

Looking at the Third Prince of Zhilan Yushu in front of him, the eunuch, who is called Li Gonggong, immediately smiles and answers in a voice, "Your Majesty should be dealing with the memorial now. What's the matter with the third prince?"

Song Ci deliberately revealed a touch of shyness, lowered his voice and said, "please inform me. I want to ask my father to make a decree."

Li Gonggong responded with a crisp and neat manner and turned to walk in.

"Your Majesty," Mr. Li cried in a low voice, "the third prince asks to see you."

For the third prince, the emperor is still some family, his eyes quickly across a trace of doubt, said, "let him in."

"My son's ministers pay a visit to my father," Song Ci said with a smile.

Looking at Song Ci's apparent happiness, the emperor picked his eyebrows unexpectedly, slowly put down his things and asked, "what are you thinking?"

Song Ci's eyes quickly appeared a touch of shyness. He coughed lightly. Under the emperor's joking eyes, he said solemnly, "I want to ask my father to do the next will."

"Oh?" The doubt in the emperor's eyes was more serious, but he didn't answer immediately, "what do you want?"

"The decree of marriage!" Without hesitation, Song Ci said in a low voice.

The emperor looked at Song Ci and suddenly realized that the child had grown up and had a happy person in his heart.

"You've grown up," the emperor said in a soft voice, "but I don't know which Lady it is?"

"My son's minister is pleased with Miss Zhou's family. Now I'd like to ask my father to give me the imperial edict for marriage," Song Ci said in a low voice, with a little red on the tip of his ear.

Thinking about what he has been worrying about these days, the emperor can't help looking at Ling Tianwang's eyes.

Is it coincidence or design? The emperor thought in his heart, but soon he got rid of the tangle and nodded.

"I agree," the emperor said softly.

Hearing this, Song Ci Ke couldn't help smiling.

Looking at his smile at this time, the emperor gently shook his head and silently suppressed his guess.

The imperial edict of marriage was sent to Zhou ruo'an quickly the next day.

"Zhou ruo'an receives the order," Li Gonggong looks at her with a smile, and his eyes urge her.

Knowing from his memory that he should kneel down at this time, Zhou ruo'an hesitated for a moment, but still stood quietly in the same place, as if he didn't know anything.

Li Gonggong looked at him deeply and said nothing again.

"The Empress Dowager and I are very pleased to hear that the Empress Dowager and I have given the third prince the title of imperial concubine. All the rituals are jointly handled by the Ministry of rites and the emperor's supervisor

Looking at the bright imperial edict, Zhou ruo'an felt more and more that Song Ci was probably a brain disease, otherwise how could he make such a choice.

In the memory of the original owner, Song Ci has always been indifferent to her and did not hide his inner disgust.

The third prince is a popular candidate for the crown prince. The imperial edict for his marriage immediately aroused the interest of many honourable officials in the capital.

"I heard it's the eldest daughter of the Zhou family. I don't know what she looks like."

"It seems that I have never met the future third prince and concubine, which is a little strange."

"What's strange is the relationship between stepdaughter and stepmother."

……

In the following time, no matter what kind of banquet was held in the capital, it would eventually become a seminar for the three princesses and concubines.

Under such circumstances, the fact that sun never took Zhou ruo'an to the party became the reason for the public to attack him, and he could no longer wear the mask of loving mother.When sun went back home, she saw Zhou Ruoyan, who was pale. Her heart jumped and she had some bad premonitions.

"Why don't you go up and support miss two?" Sun Shi saw the servant girl beside one eye, discontented of command way.

Hearing sun's voice, Zhou Ruoyan seemed to react suddenly. He looked at her in a panic. His lips were constantly shaking, and he held a word for a long time.

"The edict is false, isn't it?" Zhou Ruoyan asked softly, looking at sun's eyes like looking at his last straw.

However, he twisted his eyebrows and looked at his daughter in front of him helplessly and angrily. He said in a low voice, "don't worry about it. It's not that there is no room for maneuver..."

But no matter what Sun said, Zhou Ruoyan didn't seem to hear it. His expression gradually became ferocious and his eyes were not clear.

"The edict is false! You all lied to me! The third prince hates Zhou ruo'an so much. How can he take the initiative to marry him! It must be Zhou ruo'an, it must be that bitch! It was he who used the means!... " Zhou Ruoyan murmured to himself, his voice gradually became sharp.

He said, turning around and running out.

Looking at her crazy back, sun's eyes turned red.

"Stop the second young lady quickly!" Sun shouts, and his sharp voice wakes up the servants.

There was a commotion in Zhou Fu, but fortunately, Zhou Ruoyan was stopped.

"What are you doing?" Sun's some exasperated shouts a way, "the rampage is like a madman general! Do you remember who you are? Do you still remember the Zhou family you represent? "

But no matter what Sun said, Zhou Ruoyan was a muddle headed expression, as if he didn't hear anything.
