Chapter 715 He felt that she was making things difficult for him and that she was still unsatisfied
"The Emperor has decreed that although Shu Yue, the daughter of former Xuanwei General Shu Kelin, has faulty conduct, she is pregnant with Prince Nanyu's eldest son and daughter, which can be considered meritorious. The Emperor now decrees that Prince Nanyu take Shu Yue back to the palace to take good care of the pregnancy and to give birth to more children for the royal family!"
After hearing this, the string that was holding Shu Yue loosened. She collapsed to the ground and shouted, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace!"
Shu He and Baili Moqing looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes.
At this moment, the murderous intent in Baili Moyan's eyes almost took shape, and he wanted to pierce Shu Yue's heart with thousands of arrows!
How did the Emperor know about this so quickly? Did she do something else? This Shu Yue is really capable!
After the messenger left, the palace once again descended into chaos and endless discussion. They pointed and talked at Shu Yue, their expressions varying. But one thing was certain: half of them were jealous, and half were contemptuous.
"Even the emperor has personally issued an order. It seems that Shu Yue is really going to become a big shot!"
"This bitch is so lucky!"
"Hush, how dare you say such things? Shu Yue is now protected by the Emperor's decree. Be careful that she might cause you trouble in the future!"
The official's wife curled her lips coldly, and even though her face was full of disdain, she finally shut her mouth.
The first half of Prince Li's wedding was the most unprecedented scene in the entire Apocalypse over the past hundreds of years. However, the second half of the wedding was not so satisfactory.
At the wedding banquet, not only was someone poisoned, but the princess's brother also died in the bridal chamber. Her sister, Shu Yue, even attempted to murder the princess and was nearly beaten to death! However, she was saved by an imperial decree because she became pregnant with a royal heir.
Each of these things is so dramatic!
As night fell, the wedding banquet at Prince Li's mansion was not greatly affected by this minor setback. At most, everyone kept talking about it during the meal. Especially the Shu family, the "legendary" family in Kyoto, was talked about the most!
The departure of the Eighth and Ninth Brothers made the banquet in the main hall much cleaner and purer.
Sitting at the front few banquet tables were Prince Yong and his wife, the third princess, Prince Xiaoyang, and Prince of Western Chu Jiang Zhenlei and his wife, accompanied by Liu Kun and his wife, and Liu Jingchen and his wife.
A little further outside was the banquet table for the younger generation. Apart from a few princes and princesses from the royal families, the rest were people who were close to Shu He.
In fact, they all knew about what happened in the Central Courtyard before, but they did not go close to join in the fun. They just stood on the second floor of the attic in the Central Courtyard and watched the development of the situation.
It’s not that they don’t care about Shu He, but it’s mainly because it’s not easy for them, “outsiders”, to interfere in this kind of matter. If they do, they will only cause more trouble.
Fortunately, this incident didn't cause a big stir, and Shu Yuanbao's death ultimately went unnoticed. Aside from Shu Yue and Shu Yuanqing, few people even remembered him.
At the banquet in the main hall, Liu Kun was chatting happily with Baili Qingren and Jiang Zhenlei. The two kept recalling the heroic deeds of Liu Kun when he was the General of Kaiyuan, and the younger generation were also intoxicated by what they heard.
As Baili Qingren toasted him one cup after another, Liu Kun got drunk. After that, he kept smiling, his face flushed, and his expression was full of comfort and relaxation.
Liu Jingchen hasn't seen his father so happy for a long time. It seems that after learning of Liu Jinghuang's death, he has been depressed and even hovered on the brink of death in recent years!
Unexpectedly, the appearance of Shu He gave him a new life. For this, Liu Jingchen felt grateful, guilty and proud of Shu He.
Zhang Zhirou sat in the lower seat, and next to her sat Yi'er, who was wearing a beautiful scarlet skirt, with a bright golden peony blossoming on her chest, looking extremely lively and exquisite.
Her cheeks were stuffed with food, and she grabbed two more fruits with her hands. Then she stood up and ran towards Ziyuan, Ziyi and the others.
"Yier, be careful! Eat slowly!" Zhang Zhirou looked at the little figure who couldn't stop at that moment and shook her head speechlessly.
She didn't care at all about her parents getting married. Every day she would take Ziyuan and Ziyi to learn martial arts, horse stance, and boxing...
It's no wonder that with Yi'er's encouragement these past few days, the children have made great progress; especially after eating the pills that Shu He condensed from the golden fruit, the little guys have made rapid progress, with amazing leaps in both speed and strength.
It is said that Ziyi can now fight with his father.
Zi Le said, "Before, my brother would just run away when he got beaten, but now he even dares to challenge our father!"
Sitting opposite Zhang Zhirou were Jiang Dongping and Wu Xiuxin.
At this moment, Jiang Dongping's eyes were fixed on Zhang Zhirou, and a hint of sadness emanated from his whole body. He was completely different from the sunny and cheerful man when he just returned to Beijing.
The look in the other person's eyes was not fiery, but it could still hurt Zhang Zhirou's heart silently.
Thinking of what he said to her in the afternoon, she felt helpless and ridiculous.
"You saved my mother last time. My mother knows that you are a good girl. She promised me that she could let you marry as a co-wife."
"As long as we're married, we'll be a loving couple! If Wu Xiuxin wants to stay in the palace as a daughter-in-law, then let her stay. Anyway, I'll never have anything happen to her!"
Jiang Dongping was very excited, his face full of excitement, "Arou, in my heart, you are the only prince's consort!"
"One prince, two princesses?" Zhang Zhirou looked at him, and one sentence made him speechless. "There is no precedent for this in the world!"
To this day, Zhang Zhirou still remembers the surprise and disappointment on his face.
Yes, it is disappointing.
He felt that she was making things difficult for him, that she was still unsatisfied...
Ha ha!
She picked up the wine glass and drank it all without a care in the world.
Baili Rushu was sitting a little above Zhang Zhirou. Seeing the vacant seat next to her, she immediately moved over.
"Arou, try this."
Baili Rushu was holding a small plate in her hand, on which were two gold-threaded and white jade date cakes. They were the imperial meal in the palace and only the emperor could eat them.
Today is Prince Li’s wedding, and the Emperor specially gifted Prince Li’s Mansion with this imperial meal, but only the top royal relatives can enjoy it.
Zhang Zhirou's discomfort subsided slightly when she saw her. However, when she saw the plate of golden thread and white jade date cake, she felt an inexplicable discomfort again.
The gap in status and rank constantly reminded her that she was of low status and needed to look up to those at the top...
She really didn't like this feeling, but even so, there was nothing she could do.
She placed the golden white jade date cake in front of Baili Rushu and said with a faint smile, "Princess, please eat it yourself. This thing is precious. It would be a waste to give it to me."
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Baili Rushu seemed to have sensed a hint of inferiority in her voice, and her expression immediately changed as she glared at her with feigned anger. "Food is made to be eaten by people, how can it be wasted? Eat it!"
Zhang Zhirou looked at her, feeling grateful, "Thank you..."
Zhang Zhirou took the plate with both hands and just put it in front of her without eating.
She knew she meant well, but at that moment, she deeply realized how out of place she was in this bustling world.
