Chapter 112 Negotiation
“Today, when I went to see the Emperor and talked about the eldest prince, the Emperor asked me to ask the miracle doctor if he could cure the eldest prince’s leg. He would agree to any condition he could provide.
So I asked the eldest prince to come to Qiyayuan sometime. I wonder if the miracle doctor can take a look at him?" Shangguan Ziqi asked gently.
"You want me to reveal my identity as a miracle doctor in front of the Crown Prince?" Yu Yuanzheng didn't understand.
Although she had no intention of keeping it a secret for the rest of her life, now was definitely not the best time to reveal it.
“I grew up with the eldest prince and was his study partner.
Before he got into trouble, the emperor had always trained him as his heir.
Now that the eldest prince is disabled, the younger princes are ready to make a move.
The third prince born to my aunt is also involved in this, which is not a good thing.
We in the Rong Wang Mansion never participate in the fight for the throne, we only serve the people.
If the eldest prince can recover, the competition for the crown prince will be less intense, which will help the emperor stabilize the government."
Shangguan Ziqi said slowly, and at the same time made one point clear, that is, he hoped that the eldest prince would inherit the throne in the future.
This will benefit both the Great Wei Dynasty and the people.
As expected, he is a child who is being trained as the heir to the royal palace, and he stands from the perspective of justice.
Shangguan Zishu is completely incomparable. He only sees the immediate interests without considering the entire family and the people of the world.
Yu Yuanzheng's eyes changed when he looked at Guanziqi.
This is a great man!
"Okay, let him come and let me take a look first. I can't guarantee that I can cure him, but the scar on his face really affects his appearance. You can consider removing it first. How can a handsome man have any flaws?" Yu Yuanzheng agreed readily.
"Madam, do you only see his beauty?" Shangguan Ziqi was jealous.
"My husband is more handsome." Yu Yuanzheng heard something was wrong and immediately made amends.
Shangguan Ziqi then smiled brilliantly.
Silent all night.
Unexpectedly, the next morning, Prince Mo and his wife came to the palace.
The prince hasn't figured out a solution yet.
As soon as Yu Yuanzheng got the news, she and Shangguan Ziqi immediately went to the main courtyard.
Several major masters of the palace gathered together again.
"Prince Rong, let's have a good discussion today. We can't delay this matter, otherwise the gossip about my daughter will spread throughout the capital." Prince Mo's son Cao Mengxing went straight to the point.
"Why are you in such a hurry, Prince Xing? You don't have a baby waiting to be born." The prince said unhappily.
He was not a stupid man. He knew immediately that his son must have been tricked by the Nanhua County Lady.
Thinking back to the time when he was tricked into marrying a concubine, even now when he thinks of it, he feels uncomfortable.
He only had his princess in his heart, but then this thing came along. In the first few years, Concubine Luo was trying to win his favor, but he had to punish her several times before she behaved herself.
Now the same thing happened to his son.
What a hassle.
Moreover, she is the eldest granddaughter of Prince Mo's Mansion and lives in the palace, so many people know about it.
This is a sure thing that the royal palace dares not deny.
"Your Highness, you can't say that. A woman's reputation is so important. Prince Rong has seen my body naked. It's almost the same as if I were pregnant."
Cao Mengxing was very thick-skinned and didn't feel embarrassed at all to say such things.
"Your Highness, since the reputation of the Princess of Nanhua County has been ruined by Zishu, then marry her into the mansion." The second old lady took the initiative to agree without waiting for the prince's reply.
"Second Madam, you married Chaoyang as your wife, but where do you put her?" the prince said coldly, glancing at Yu Chaoyang who was sitting next to him.
Yu Chaoyang looked haggard, with red and swollen eyes. It was obvious that he had cried for a long time last night.
Shangguan Zishu also had dark circles under his eyes, probably because he spent a lot of time comforting Yu Chaoyang and slept late.
"The county lady is a member of the royal family, so of course she cannot be a concubine. Then we will marry her as his equal. From now on, they will both serve the prince together, regardless of age." The second old lady looked very happy to see this happen.
The second old lady heard about Zishu's situation in the palace last night and thought about it all night.
The status of the Nanhua County Lady is much higher than Yu Chaoyang. Such a woman is most suitable to be the Crown Prince's Consort. If Yu Chaoyang had not been betrothed by the old prince, it would never have been her turn to marry into the prince's palace and become the Crown Prince's Consort.
"Brother, I also agree with the second old lady's opinion." The second master also stood up and expressed his opinion.
"What do you know? You only care about women all day long and don't do any serious work." The prince was furious when he heard the second master's words. He assigned him work in the military camp, but he worked for three days and rested for two days.
"Brother, why are you bringing me into this matter now?" The second master suddenly became dispirited again and retorted in a low voice.
"Your Highness, please give me an explanation, otherwise my daughter will hang herself." Cao Mengxing said harshly and threatened.
"Zishu, what do you think?" The prince still wanted to hear his son's opinion.
"Father, I did see the body of Nanhua County Master yesterday.
As a responsible man, I cannot be irresponsible.
So I really should give her an explanation about this matter.
Then I can only marry her, as the Second Old Lady said, and marry her as my equal wife. She will live with the Chaoyang sisters from now on."
Shangguan Zishu expressed his attitude.
Yu Yuanzheng smiled sarcastically in his heart after hearing this.
It seems that Yu Chaoyang was not ruthless enough last night and failed to catch him.
After hearing this, the prince was very disappointed. This son was far inferior to Ziqi.
The prince looked at Shangguan Ziqi sitting in the wheelchair, and then at Yu Yuanzheng, and he felt better.
If Zishu wants to marry, then let him marry her. Then he will know that the more women, the better.
It seems that hope should still be placed on the eldest son.
"The prince is still responsible." Cao Mengxing smiled immediately when he heard Shangguan Zishu's words.
Yu Chaoyang was so angry that he ran out crying.
"Hey, slow down." Concubine Luo immediately followed him out.
Concubine Luo didn't want anything to happen to her grandson, as he was her first grandson.
Now that Zishu has a son, his position as crown prince will be more secure.
Concubine Luo chased out and saw Yu Chaoyang lying on a pillar crying.
"Son, I know you're feeling miserable, but since this happened to Zishu, I have no choice but to give him an explanation.
She is the county princess, a member of the royal family. It is impossible to take her as a concubine like the girls from ordinary families, and the emperor will not agree to it.
I will discipline Zishu and make him treat you better than Nanhua. Don't worry, you are the daughter-in-law I approve of."
Concubine Luo patted her back to comfort her.
Yu Chaoyang felt helpless and pitiful at this time.
But no one could help her with all this.
At this moment, Earl Yong'an and his wife also arrived under the leadership of Butler Li.
As soon as Yu Chaoyang saw his parents, he felt like he had found his backbone and threw himself directly into the arms of Lady Wang, the wife of the Earl of Yong'an.
"Mom, my daughter can't survive. What should I do?"
"Chaoyang, don't be afraid. Your mother and father are here to talk to the prince. Go back to your own courtyard first. You are still pregnant, so don't cry.
The most important thing for you now is to take good care of your belly and give birth to the baby safely. This will be your lifelong support." Wang said softly to comfort him.
How could she remain indifferent when her pampered daughter suffered such a great injustice? She got up early in the morning and immediately dragged her husband to the palace.
