Yusui Chang'an

At that time, Chu Chengping was about to return home, but the emperor kept him and asked Concubine Ming what she thought of Lin Wanrong after meeting her.

"Ping'er has never been so obsessed with any other daughter. I am afraid that this girl has ulterior motives or is being directed by someone, so I want to meet her alone.

After talking to her, I realized that she was a pitiful child who made people feel sorry for her. Her character was simpler and more honest than Ping'er. It turned out that I was worrying too much."

Chu Chengping sat down with a lonely look on his face. When he heard the emperor talking about Lin Wanrong, a light flashed in his lowered eyes. After Ming Fei finished speaking, he quickly stood up and replied:
"Father, when I was with Miss Lin, I never thought about her family background. It was rash of me to ask for permission last time. She is timid and shy, and is indeed not suitable for the royal family. Please forget about this matter, Father."

"You came to me to ask for my permission to marry you a few days ago, but in just a few days, you've changed your mind?"

Chu Chengping raised his head hastily, wanting to argue, but after looking into the emperor's eyes, he was defeated. He lowered his head and reluctantly squeezed out a "hmm".

The emperor put down his teacup heavily;

"You are useless! You are the prince of Tianchu, you can marry any woman you want. That girl just knows her status, she doesn't look down on you.

Even if you don't like her, it's you who should look down on her. Since you like her, why should she be so ungrateful as to reject you?"

Upon hearing this, Zheng Cheng's eyes swept between the emperor and Chu Chengping:
Is this talking about my son, or myself?

Chu Chengping felt extremely uncomfortable when he heard the emperor say this about his beloved. He held back his arguments and spoke aggrievedly:
“But I have inquired with the Grand Tutor and Jin’an, and they both think that she is soft-hearted and are afraid that she will be bullied, so the wealthy and powerful families have not considered her.

The royal family has stricter etiquette than the rich and powerful, and the chores are more complicated, but she refused... How could the Grand Tutor and the others agree...

Moreover, I don’t know where I have offended my enemies and almost lost my life, how dare I drag her into this…”

Seeing his son's cowardly appearance, the emperor became even more upset:

"No matter how powerful your enemies are, can they be more powerful than mine? Do you think I can't protect you? The Lin family is my subject. If I issue an order, do they dare to disobey? You are my son, how can you be so timid!"

Seeing the emperor suddenly speak in a stern tone, Concubine Ming hurriedly bowed and apologized:

"Your Majesty, calm down. Ping'er was frightened last time, so she is thinking more."

The emperor's scolding was stuck in his throat, and he only suppressed it after drinking a sip of tea.

The son wanted to force it, and he scolded the man until he vomited blood. He was scared of his son's scolding, and he was disgusted. It was really not appropriate...

Of course, he is the emperor, and the emperor must be right. He slowed down his tone and said a few words to Chu Chengping, indicating that Chu Chengping could marry her if he wanted.

The snow on Chu Chengping's face melted away, and he came forward begging, asking if the emperor really wanted him to marry. He also asked if he really took the emperor's promise to protect him seriously.
Looking at his son's intimate posture, although the emperor looked impatient, he was pleased in his heart and took his son's words seriously.

Chu Chengping laughed so hard that he looked silly:
"Father, since you said so, I am not afraid! In case you don't admit it, you have to give me a proof to give me courage.

The Grand Tutor listens to you the most. How about you first summon the Grand Tutor and Lord Lin to discuss this matter in detail before issuing the decree, to show that I have no intention of using my power to oppress others."

The emperor pointed at his son and scolded him:

"You rascal, you want beauty, you want harmony, and you want proof."

Chu Chengping stepped forward to refill the emperor's cup with hot tea and handed it to him attentively:

"Hehe, my father is the most wise and powerful king in the world. I am lucky." (End of this chapter)
