Chapter 210
The palace was brightly lit, like daylight.
The lanterns were red, blue and yellow, making the palace glow.
From time to time, a few bouquets of fireworks were lit up in the night sky, causing people to look up frequently to appreciate the rare beauty.
Ruan Ruan followed Xuan Liye and the others to play in the Royal Garden. He was familiar with the place, so he made him the king of children.
……
Xuan Liyu took Shen Zhiyuan and Cheng Jinting to a remote pavilion in the Imperial Garden, and their entourage was on duty nearby.
"Brother Shen, Brother Cheng, please help me. I'm nineteen years old this year and I haven't married yet." Xuan Liyu was stunned as soon as he opened his mouth.
Shen Zhiyuan smiled and said: "Are you kidding me? You don't want to get a wife! Otherwise, how could you not get one?"
He always thought that Xuan Liyu didn't work hard enough to marry Cheng Shushu.
At least Xuan Liyu didn't tell the emperor, empress, or Mr. Cheng about his thoughts in the past two years.
And his father had already killed two concubines from the nine clans.
"I know it's my fault, but you also know that the Cheng family has a rule that daughters of the Cheng family are not allowed to enter the palace as concubines or queens. I like Miss Cheng, so I can't let the Taifu change the rules. It will hurt the Taifu. face.
"..." Xuan Liyu shut up and didn't dare to speak because he felt guilty.
Cheng Jinting sneered: "How can we help you? You are His Highness the Crown Prince, what kind of girl can't you marry?"
Cheng Jinting hit Xuan Liyu hard.
I have tried some methods in the past two years, but they are of no use. "
Who wouldn't be afraid of it?
Dai Viet's past emperors were both sentimental and ruthless, and it was considered a traditional activity for the Nine Clans to kill their concubines.
This kind of thing can be hereditary.
"My second cousin is right. It is precisely because of this rule that the Cheng family has been able to sit in the capital for more than a hundred years. Several generations of people have been able to sit where they are now with their strength and loyalty to the royal family."
Speaking of the queens and concubines in the harem in the past dynasties, there were about ten of them who were executed by the nine clans.
"Grandpa will never agree to your marriage. I advise His Highness the Crown Prince to give up! It will not be beneficial to anyone if you delay it any longer."
"You also know that it's better to give up early."
Xuan Liyu was speechless. He thought they understood him and would stand on his side and help him.
Shen Zhiyuan looked at Xuan Liyu with a serious expression. "If all the aristocratic families were like other aristocratic families who relied on sending women into the palace to compete for favors and seek power, they would probably have been on the list of the nine clans to be executed. The Dai Viet royal family has wiped out the mother clans of several queens and concubines for more than a hundred years?"
Any emperor who doesn't kill two or three concubines and queens from the nine tribes is no longer considered a normal person.
Cheng Jinting sneered and was dragged off by Xuan Liyu. His eldest cousin was already sixteen years old, so it would be even more difficult for her to find a good family.
"This rule has been in the Cheng family for eighty or ninety years. Six or seven generations have followed it. No one dares to break the rule. If you let my grandfather break the rule, doesn't it make him shameless to face his ancestors?"
"Brother Cheng, I sincerely love Miss Cheng. I will never marry her unless she is in this life. I will never let her down or betray her. Otherwise, I will be struck by lightning and die a good death."
In fact, he was also worried that he would do such a thing.
Xuan Liyu raised his right hand and swore an oath.
"I have been holding on for four or five years, otherwise there would have been a crown prince and a concubine in the East Palace. For the past two or three years, I have been fighting against my mother, stepfather, and emperor to marry concubines. It is not that I have done nothing. It's just that the Taifu, I Gong has no face to beg him."
Mr. Cheng is his tutor. As a student, even His Highness the Crown Prince cannot be so thick-skinned. "Let's put aside this matter, but there is another ancestral precept. Our Cheng family's sons are not allowed to take concubines, and the Cheng family's daughters are not allowed to be concubines, and their sons-in-law are not allowed to take concubines."
Cheng Jinting's voice was cold, and the cold light in his eyes was like a blade inserted into Xuan Liyu's heart.
"Your Highness, can you do it?"
"I can do it, otherwise I would not offend Miss Cheng. I have long understood the ancestral precepts of the Cheng family. Since I have chosen her, I have already prepared that she will be the only one in the harem."
Xuan Liyu fell in love with Cheng Shushu at first sight and has liked her for many years.
In the past two years, he had made up his mind not to marry anyone but her, so he expressed his feelings to Cheng Jinting and asked him to help him.
In the end, he didn't even help himself.
Seeing Xuan Liyu's serious look, Cheng Jinting was a little moved. The main reason was that his eldest cousin also liked Xuan Liyu. Unless he didn't marry her, otherwise she wouldn't have been engaged at the age of sixteen.
He sighed and said: "You first make it clear to the emperor and empress, ask them if they are willing to help you, and bring them into your camp, otherwise the parents of both sides will be resistance."
"Well, tomorrow the palace will mention Miss Cheng's matter to them, and they should agree. However, she is the only woman in the harem, which I'm afraid it will be more difficult for them to accept."
Xuan Liyu cried and laughed, thinking that there would be a tough battle tomorrow, and he felt a little frightened.
At this time, Shen Zhiyuan laughed out loud with a strange expression.
"Brother Shen, what are you laughing at?"
"Elder cousin, why does your smile make me feel a little bad and scared?"
"I have an idea, but I wonder if His Highness the Crown Prince is willing to cooperate? If this scene is performed well and nothing happens, we can get married in March or April."
An evil smile appeared at the corner of Shen Zhiyuan's mouth.
Xuan Liyu was stunned, acting?
"Brother Shen, please tell me."
"In the past few years, you have not had a woman in the East Palace. The outside world has long secretly spread that the reason why you are not close to women is because you are very masculine and have the habit of Longyang.
At present, the emperor and the empress are not worried about your orientation because you often assure them that your orientation is normal. "
"Yes."
"If His Highness the Crown Prince hugs a fair-faced and handsome little eunuch in front of them tomorrow, do you think they will be very scared?"
"meeting."
"You take advantage of their fear and tell them that you will never marry a princess or touch any woman in your life. You just want to play life with the little eunuch.
Do you think they will be scared and angry? "
"of course."
"After half a month, when they have nothing to do with you and agree to put forward any conditions to satisfy you, you propose that there can only be one woman in the harem, and you only marry one princess and give them several grandchildren, otherwise you Never marry or have children."
"Good idea." Xuan Liyu's eyes lit up, and the scene of successful negotiations with his father, emperor and mother had already appeared in his mind.
Shen Zhiyuan continued: "They will hesitate at this time, but you have to hold on, don't give in, and continue acting. In a few days, they will lower their demands and find you a crown princess."
"Just pretend that you are not satisfied with anyone you look at, find all kinds of faults, and say that whichever one you look for will harm the girl. In addition to giving her status and rights, you can't give her feelings or body."
"After they feel guilty, you tell them that they should find a girl who is frigid or has a good temperament, so that neither party owes the other party anything."
