Chapter 625: Officials' Petition to Enter the Temple with Their Families
Old Madam Xue sighed repeatedly and looked worried.
Madam Huo Chanyu gently patted her mother-in-law on the back and advised, "Mom, don't worry for now!
My daughter-in-law remembered that when His Royal Highness Prince Yu came to visit for the first time, he once said that before he went down the mountain, his master once said a few words to him: Marriage is destined by heaven!
It is fate, it must be fate;
If it’s not fate, it’s hard to become fate!
The daughter-in-law felt that...what the old man said did make sense.
If it is fate, it cannot be separated;
If it is not fate, there is no need to force it.
Mom said so, right?
After listening to her eldest daughter-in-law's words, Mrs. Xue thought about it and nodded silently.
"My daughter-in-law also thinks that what His Royal Highness Prince Yu's master said makes sense.
Marriage is destined by heaven.
It doesn’t matter whether there was an imperial decree granting the marriage or an engagement.
The important thing is, are our Yue'er and His Royal Highness Prince Yu really destined to be together?
If there is really a destiny, no matter how those court officials toss;
No matter how those boudoir girls miss it;
No matter what means they use...
In the end, it is someone's fate.
You can’t force fate!”
Second wife Zheng Suyao always speaks frankly.
These words now expressed everything that everyone wanted to say.
Madam Xue nodded, "Well!
We don't need to worry too much about this matter right now, just let nature take its course!
Left and right... Our Anguo Mansion is different from those powerful families who rely on their daughters to get close to the rich and powerful;
Our Yue'er is not the kind of vain girl who covets wealth and fame.
Our Yue'er is opinionated and has her own principles, and she doesn't necessarily have to marry into the royal family.
Everything... depends on Yue'er's wish!
As a family, we can only support her and protect her from behind!"
"Mom, you are absolutely right!" The first and second wives nodded at the same time.
At this time, Nanny Feng walked in from outside.
"My Lord, Madam, the temple has already opened its fasting meal. Should we serve it now?"
After hearing this, Madam Xue turned her head and looked outside the house, and said, "Wait a little longer, the young lady hasn't come back yet!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard a sweet voice outside, "Grandma, Yue'er is back!
Yue'er is hungry, let's have a vegetarian meal!"
After hearing this, everyone looked towards the door.
Following the voice, a graceful and pretty figure walked in briskly.
"Yue'er is back, come to grandma!
I am waiting for your vegetarian meal!"
Madam Xue smiled and waved her hand.
"Yes, grandma!"
Leng Rongyue bowed to several elders in the family, then quickly walked to Old Madam Xue and dived into her arms.
Old Madam Xue hugged Leng Rongyue tightly, calling her her darling, wishing she could love her to the core.
A cute and adorable girl can never be replaced by a boy.
Boys don't have this kind of thoughtfulness and intimacy.
The first wife Huo Chanyu and the second wife Zheng Suyao stood by and watched. They looked at each other, with envy and regret in their eyes.
They all gave birth to sons.
I always think...if I could give birth to a cute and soft little daughter, my life would be perfect!
It’s a pity that things don’t always go as we wish!
But... it's not bad to have Yue'er around now...
They should just put all their thoughts and love for their daughter on Yue'er!
"Please serve the vegetarian food quickly, our Yue'er is hungry!"
Madam Xue gave instructions quickly.
"Yes, old lady!"
Nanny Feng bowed and went out to make the arrangements.
Soon, the servants served the vegetarian meal sent from the temple.
Although they are all vegetarian, the vegetarian meals at Qingguo Temple have always been popular.
I am used to eating chicken, duck, fish and meat on weekdays, but eating vegetarian food now feels different.
In another courtyard.
Xiao Jingyu returned to the room, and Suifeng, Tayun and others followed him in.
Suifeng handed a piece of letter in his hand to Xiao Jingyu.
Xiao Jingyu took it and opened it.
The letter described what happened at the morning court session.
"Sure enough!
There really is someone with a thief's heart who is still alive!"
Xiao Jingyu said coldly.
"Some ministers in the court have really started to act up!
They jointly petitioned the emperor to withdraw the imperial decree granting the marriage.
I am asking you to cancel your engagement with Yue'er and choose another daughter from a prominent family to marry into Prince Yu's palace as his concubine.
what!
What a daydream!
They also want to influence my marriage?
Want to get involved too?
It’s really beyond your capabilities.”
Xiao Jingyu threw the letter in his hand away and walked over to sit on the Arhat bed.
Suifeng looked at the faint anger on Xiao Jingyu's face and said, "Your Majesty, it's not just that some ministers were making a fuss at the morning court;
The backyards of some of the powerful families in the capital are also becoming bustling!"
"what happened?"
Xiao Jingyu asked.
"They think...they think that the marriage between the prince and the daughter of the Marquis of Qinxing will not be successful, so they have another chance."
Suifeng replied.
"Also, the prince came to Qingguo Temple with the Anguo family to burn incense and worship Buddha, and this trip was not deliberately concealed;
It is not difficult for the important officials in the court to know.
Many families with daughters were planning to come to Qingguo Temple to pay homage.
Some women from other families were quick and have already arrived at Qingguo Temple!"
