Chapter 787: A Match Made in Heaven
Zhang Miaoying thought of her father in the prison, sighed and shook her head.
The emperor wrote the imperial decree to grant the marriage at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet. No matter whether Leng Rongyue's father became a criminal later, and whether Leng Rongyue, as the "daughter of a criminal", could still become the princess of Prince Yu, that was the emperor's business.
As the emperor, would he want someone to overturn the decision he made?
What's more, even among the common people, marriage is based on the orders of parents and the words of matchmakers.
What's more, His Royal Highness Prince Yu's parents are the supreme emperor and empress of Jingyue Kingdom.
No matter how publicize it, His Royal Highness Prince Yu's marriage is also a family affair of the royal family.
Is it the turn of a group of ministers to interfere in the marriage chosen by the emperor and empress for their son?
The ministers, full of ambition and greed, all want to give their daughters to the emperor and empress's sons. Do the emperor and empress have to make their sons accept it obediently?
Since the fall of the Marquis of Qinxing's Mansion, those ambitious officials seemed to have seen hope again and started to jump out again.
The results of it?
Donate silver to the national treasury, donate incense money to Qingguo Temple...
The emperor did not really punish anyone, which was to save face and give those people a way out, but there are still some people who don't know what's good for them.
Isn’t this my father?
He thought that since he was the father-in-law of the emperor's nephew and that he held the high position of the second assistant minister, he was qualified to challenge the emperor's authority!
My father was too careless, which led to his imprisonment today.
Unfortunately……
Zhang Miaoying glanced at her younger sister Zhang Miaotong again... Her father had been imprisoned in the Heavenly Prison, but her younger sister still hadn't woken up!
Speaking of ambition... I have it too.
But, I am not stupid.
If there had not been today's changes, if her husband could really get what he wanted, it would be natural for her, as the current wife, to become the queen in the future.
But now...
Zhang Miaoying closed her eyes and shook her head.
Zhang Miaoying recalled the cold face of Xiao Jingyi that she had seen when she left the house...
From that cold face, thinking back to this morning's court...
If what happened at the morning court could have been alleviated, and if his father could have been spared from imprisonment, Xiao Jingyi would have taken action long ago.
After all, he wouldn't want his father-in-law to be imprisoned in the Sky Prison!
The reason why he just ignored it...just means...he couldn't do it and couldn't save it.
Not only can he not do it, he can't save her. Maybe... maybe Xiao Jingyi has already made up his mind to give up their Ci Fu Mansion!
Will he still protect or keep the Second Auxiliary Mansion which has no auxiliary value to him anymore?
Certainly not.
Once Xiao Jingyi gave up the Second Prime Minister's Mansion, would she, the principal wife who came from the Second Prime Minister's Mansion, be able to keep her position?
Her position as the principal wife is in jeopardy, and her mother and sister are forcing her to ask for help from a husband who doesn't care about her at all... Will it be useful?
Zhang Miaoying seemed to understand a lot of things in an instant.
However, Wang and Zhang Miaotong did not understand.
At this time, they recovered a little and started crying, complaining, and urging again...
Zhang Miaoying just sat there motionless.
At this time, a maid came in from outside, "Reporting to the princess, there are guards who want to see you!"
"Let him in quickly!"
Zhang Miaoying knew that the person she sent out to gather information had returned.
A guard came running in from outside.
Entering the hall, the guard bowed to Zhang Miaoying and said, "Greetings, Princess!"
"Tell me quickly, why did the master go to jail?"
"Princess, I have found out everything. This is what happened..."
This guard went to the morning court and explained how Zhang Jinyan came out to advise the emperor after he had already issued two imperial edicts, and how he deliberately misinterpreted the emperor's intention, thus angering the emperor.
He first reprimanded him in the palace, and then ordered the Golden Armor Guards to throw Zhang Jinyan directly into the Heavenly Prison for the crimes of disrespecting the emperor, distorting the emperor's will, and deceiving the emperor.
Eunuch Yu, under the emperor's order, went to the Duke of Anguo's mansion to announce the two imperial edicts of enthronement and marriage.
His Royal Highness Prince Yu also accompanied Duke Anguo Fu Peng to the Duke Anguo's Mansion.
At this time, the imperial edict conferring the title of Princess Chengxian and the imperial edict granting the remarriage should have been delivered to the Duke of Anguo's Mansion!
After hearing the guard's report, Zhang Miaoying hadn't even uttered a word when Zhang Miaotong beside her started wailing...
"how so?
Why is this happening?
Why does that "daughter of a guilty minister" have such a good life?
Why?
Why?
Why did her father commit a capital crime but she was fine?
She is obviously the daughter of the traitor Leng Xian. Why can't she be called the "daughter of a traitor"?
Why should she be named a princess as the descendant of the first Marquis of Qinxing, and what a bullshit Princess Chengxian?
Why?
Why? "
Zhang Miaotong, who prides herself on being a model lady from a noble family, is going crazy now!
Even dirty words came out!
On the day of the trial at Shuntian Prefecture Yamen, the guard was ordered to gather information, so he also went there and squeezed to the front.
He truly saw the peerless beauty of Miss Leng and witnessed her passionate public speech.
At this moment, he secretly thought in his heart that he was just a guard of the Second Assistant Mansion, and he had to identify his master;
If I really speak from my conscience, the second young lady in the Cifu Mansion cannot be compared with the eldest young lady Leng Rongyue. There is no comparison at all!
The difference between this second young lady and the eldest young lady Leng is huge!
I was named Princess Chengxian by the Emperor, and that was a title I truly deserved;
The Emperor has granted me marriage to His Royal Highness Prince Yu. It is a match made in heaven!
If it is true that our second daughter is betrothed to the heavenly Prince Yu...
To put it bluntly, that was a disaster for His Royal Highness Prince Yu!
The second young lady of our family is not worthy of being Prince Yu’s wife, she really is not worthy!
In this case, I can only think about it secretly in my heart.
As a small guard, I would never dare to say it out loud.
