Chapter 460: Zhen Does Not Approve (2)
Zhen Does Not Approve (2)
“What’s the matter?” Mo Rongzhan frowned and looked at his younger brother. “Where were you planning to go if you’re not in the study at this time?”
“Brother Emperor, today I do not need to go to the study. Just now, I came from the Imperial Mother’s palace.” Mo Rongyi bowed before he smiled at his brother and began speaking. “Brother Emperor, Imperial Mother is going to bestow marriage between Yaoyao and Marquis Jing Ning. I also want to buy something to add to Yaoyao’s dowry, but I don’t know what to buy. Brother Emperor, can you lend me a few people? I want to buy—”
Mo Rongzhan’s heart suddenly sank and when he spoke, his voice was low and cold. “What did you just say? Marriage bestowment?”
“Imperial Mother is going to bestow marriage between Yaoyao and Brother Tang, Brother Emperor—” Before Mo Rongyi could finish his words, he saw Mo Rongzhan standing up fiercely.
BANG!
The teacup in Mo Rongzhan’s hand shattered to pieces as he stood up with a sullen expression. Then, he strode out of the imperial study.
Extremely frightened, Eunuch Fu knelt on the ground and kept his eyes there, not daring to raise his head at all, let alone take a look at the emperor. He knew better than anyone that his master had feelings for Lu Yaoyao. If the empress dowager really bestowed her a marriage… he couldn’t imagine what the emperor would do.
Therefore, out of everyone gathered there, only Mo Rongyi was confused. “Eunuch Fu, what did this prince say wrong? Why does Brother Emperor look so angry?”
“Little Prince, it’s not that you’re wrong, it’s… Marquis Jing Ning can’t marry the princess,” Eunuch Fu said, almost in tears.
[*gōng zhǔ jué wèi… gōng zhǔ- princess, jué wèi- order of feudal nobility, namely: Duke 公[gong1], Marquis 侯[hou2], Count 伯[bo2], Viscount 子[zi3], Baron 男[nan2]]
Empress Dowager’s face froze. “Your Majesty, did Yaoyao do something wrong?”
Mo Rongzhan answered indifferently, “No.”
Since she has done nothing wrong, then why should she be demoted to a county princess (Junzhu)? Empress Dowager thought, looking puzzled. However, when she looked at Mo Rongzhan’s cold expression, a flash of light combusted in her mind and she suddenly understood everything!
“Your Majesty, you… Yaoyao is already an imperial princess, and your status is already that of brother and sister. Have you not given up on her yet?” Empress Dowager hurriedly asked.
