" What did Ao Xiaohan say if the Empress Dowager refused?" Weixin asked.”
"I don't know about this. When we met on the street just now, wangye mocked young miss for not wanting to be a wangfei but an imperial concubine!”
Bah!
What imperial concubine? Even if it's the Empress, this Young Lady doesn't care!
The previous empress was Ao Xiaohan's biological mother, but unfortunately, she had died early. If Weixin became the empress, not only would she have a noble status, but she would also be able to steal any valuable items in the palace! Wouldn't that make her Ao Xiaohan's mother?
In the past, Weixin would consider anything that could earn money, but now, was she going to lose her youth for money? No! Although the emperor doted on her and she respected him, this was completely a junior to an elder!
"Uncle Fu, are you sure the information is correct? Don't mess with me!" Weixin asked with uncertainty.
Uncle Blessing shook his head. He was almost angered to death by Weixin's calm expression."Miss, have I ever lied?"
No, but he always said things that she could not accept!
Weixin was like an ant on a hot pan. She went into the house and changed into men's clothes before she immediately went out."Uncle Fu, accompany me into the palace!"
Walking in the garden, the servants looked at Weixin strangely. Although they didn't dare to say anything, they were already very curious and shocked!
The young general that she was familiar with for many years was a woman. In the past, she and Mei 'er were locked in the room all day. What did he mean by 'a little gentle'? Could it be that Miss really liked both men and women? This was too disgusting!
"What are you looking at? Do something!" Weixin scolded. She had already changed into men's clothes. If they looked at her again, don't blame her for firing them all!
The maidservants immediately took up their respective duties!
When they came out of Ji Manor and onto the streets, the commoners looked at Weixin as if they were looking at a monster."Why are you still dressed as a man?"
"It's probably because men's clothes are sturdy and won't be torn off easily!”
"Could it be that His Highness will strip her of her clothes?”
"Hard to say, maybe!"
A bunch of gossips!
Weixin cursed. If she wasn't in a hurry to enter the palace, she would definitely tear these people's mouths apart!
"Uncle Fu, hurry up!"”
Upon entering the palace, the first person Weixin met was Princess Yajie. She was a beautiful girl with big eyes and a petite figure. Her beauty was not inferior to Weixin's. At this moment, she was standing on a small path in the imperial garden as if she was waiting for someone!
"Yajie!" Weixin called her because they had been playing together since they were young and had a good relationship. When there were no outsiders, Weixin would call her by her maiden name!
Ya Jie turned her head and revealed a faint smile.""You're finally here. I've been waiting for you!”When the Emperor had said that he was going to find a husband for her and that the candidate was Weixin, Yajie had been very anxious. She liked Weixin, but it was just like how she liked Ao Xiaohan. It was her brother's love, not a romantic relationship. She already had a crush on someone, and that person was Ouyang Li, the commander of the guards who was responsible for protecting her when she left the palace to play. However, this secret could not be revealed because Ya Jie did not know if Ouyang Li had feelings for her. Moreover, the difference in status between the two of them was too great. Even if Father knew, he would not agree!
Therefore, Yajie used the excuse that she was still young and didn't want to get married so soon, but her father insisted that she get married. Just when she didn't know what to do, she heard that Brother Weiying was actually Sister Weixin!
That's great, she doesn't have to marry anymore!
Ya Jie was full of joy. She pulled Weixin's hand and said,""Sister Weiyi, why are you still dressed as a man? I heard that Sister Weixin is very beautiful when she recovers her female body. Yajie wants to see it!”
How could he have the time to talk about this when the fire was burning his eyebrows!
"Princess, are you waiting for me?"”Could it be that he just wanted to see her in women's clothing? Please don't cause trouble. I still have to find the emperor!
Ya Jie let go." It's like this. Imperial Father wanted to take you in, but Imperial Grandmother did not agree. After her persuasion failed, she actually…"
"What?" Weixin asked anxiously. Because her mother was a " femme fatale ", although the Empress Dowager had never made things difficult for Weixin, her attitude towards her had always been very cold.
What tricks did that old woman play this time?
Ya Jie said," Imperial Grandmother has secretly passed down an imperial decree, saying that Sister Weixin and Brother have been engaged since they were young. Now that Sister's identity is public, and because of the conflict on the street that day, Brother Han saw her body, she should marry Brother. The wedding date has been set, which is the 28th of this month!”
Twenty-eight?
Wasn't that half a month later?
Old woman, what the hell are you doing?
Weixin ran away, but Yajie stopped her.”
"Ask that damned old woman…the Empress Dowager to take back her order!”
"There's no time!" Ya Jie caught up and shouted,"Sister, Father knows too. He's at Imperial Grandmother's place!"”
Pure Excellence Hall, Empress Dowager's bedroom!
The surroundings were magnificent and elegant. The atmosphere in the hall was very strange. The Emperor asked,""Mother secretly issued a decree behind your son's back?" Weixin had personally said that she didn't like Han 'er, so how could she marry him? If it wasn't for Yajie's report, he would have been kept in the dark!
The Empress Dowager was over sixty years old. Her hair was slightly white, and her body was slightly wrinkled. Her phoenix robe made her look noble, and her face was so serious that it made people feel a little timid. She looked at the Emperor with a cold gaze."This widow knows that you don't agree, so there's no need to inform you. This widow has already sent people to spread the decree. I believe that everyone in the capital knows that you can forget about marrying her!”
As the Empress Dowager spoke, she recalled that she actually liked Huiyun very much back then. She also knew that everything that happened after that was not Huiyun's fault, but in the end, she was the one who started the war between the two countries. She heard that her daughter's outfit was very similar to Huiyun's. Logically speaking, in order to prevent future troubles, she should have been sentenced to death when she found out that Weixin was a woman. However, this was too cruel, and it would be difficult to explain to General Ai, who had once made outstanding contributions. Therefore, the Empress Dowager decided to announce that her grandson had been engaged to Ai Weixin since she was young! This way, even if the Emperor did not give up, he would not have any evil thoughts about his daughter-in-law!
The empress dowager was very satisfied with everything she had planned. After settling her son's matter, she was not worried about her grandson at all. She knew that Ao Xiaohan and Weixin had never gotten along. She believed that even if Ao Xiaohan married the beautiful Ai Weixin, he would treat her like a bed warmer and would never fall for her!
Her grandson, Han 'er, was a playboy. There were many beautiful concubines in the residence, but he had never fallen for anyone. She believed that even if he married another Ai Weixin, it would be the same!
"The decree has been issued?" The Emperor muttered in a daze. He thought he could stop it in time, but he did not expect…
The Empress Dowager's tone was still cold." I've already sent it out. I'm already being lenient by not punishing Ai Weixin for deceiving the Emperor. I won't allow you to take a concubine!"
Already sent?
Without waiting for the eunuch outside the door to report, Weixin had already rushed in and happened to hear…
Having lived in this foreign world for twenty years, she knew that the meaning of an imperial decree was similar to that of an imperial edict. Once it was made public, it could not be taken back. Could it be…
Was she really going to marry Ao Xiaohan?
No!
She was not marrying!
At this moment…
"King Ao has arrived!" Outside the hall, Ao Xiaohan had already seen the decree and was striding over!
After Ao Xiaohan left the palace, he returned to the manor. He was in a bad mood when he thought of the possibility of Ai Weixin becoming his father's concubine. However, when he heard from the butler that the Empress Dowager's decree had been issued, he and Ai Weixin would get married on the 28th of this month?
What was going on?
Didn't Imperial Father insist on accepting Ai Weixin? Why did Imperial Grandmother issue such a decree? Ao Xiaohan entered the palace once again with doubt.
Ao Xiaohan was also surprised to see Weixin. He waved the imperial decree in his hand. He had taken it off on the street before entering the palace. Only he dared to take off the imperial decree."It seems that your dream of being an imperial concubine is about to be shattered!”With the decree, she could no longer escape. She was destined to be his!
For some reason, Ao Xiaohan was in a good mood!
On second thought, why did Imperial Grandmother issue an imperial decree?
Ao Xiaohan looked at the empress dowager, his eyes as deep as the ocean.""Why did Imperial Grandmother suddenly issue a decree?”It was rare for her to hide it from her father. Her purpose was to cut off her father's feelings for Weixin?
At this moment, the Empress Dowager did not seem to hear her. She stared at Weixin with her eyes wide open. Although she was still dressed as a man, he knew that she was a woman. He felt that after looking at her exquisite face for a long time, he felt that she looked more and more like Huiyun from back then. Why didn't he feel that way before?
"Ai Weixin, how dare you barge in without informing us!" The empress dowager said coldly.”
"I'm not marrying!" Weixin didn't flinch. Her voice was so cold that it was as if it was flashing with a cold light."I won't marry. Empress Dowager, please retract your order!”
"Is this the attitude you should have? Ai Weixin, don't think that the emperor is so unbridled just because he favors you. This widow is the empress dowager, and this widow has already forgiven you for deceiving the emperor. This widow has even betrothed you and King Ao on behalf of the emperor, yet you are not grateful and still barge in to cause trouble?”
She would not be grateful. She did not want to get married at all!
Weixin was anxious. Uncle Blessing secretly tugged at the corner of Weixin's clothes. Miss, this is the palace. You can't mess around like you did in the residence!
Weixin obediently knelt down." It was my fault for lying about my identity. It was also my fault for barging in today. As long as the Empress Dowager annuls my engagement with His Highness, I am willing to accept any punishment from the Empress Dowager!"”
"Weixin, I won't punish you. Get up quickly!”The Emperor stepped forward. No one knew that he was overjoyed that she was a woman. How could he bear to punish her? However, his mother had secretly betrothed Weixin and Han 'er. How could he endure this?
The Emperor's heart ached. He had thought that he had finally found someone to entrust his love for Huiyun to, but this person was going to become his daughter-in-law!
"Wait!" The Empress Dowager ordered that the emperor should not go to help Weixin.
"Royal Grandmother!" Ao Xiaohan called out. He had been here for a long time. He begged his father and grandmother not to treat him as an invisible person!
The empress dowager glanced at Ao Xiaohan and said to Weixin,""For the sake of General Ji who has passed away, this widow will not care about the matter of you lying about your identity as a woman. You and Han 'er were engaged since young!”
"I'm not marrying!"
"You can't say no! This widow is warning you one last time, either you get married, or this widow will punish you for deceiving the emperor. As for the crime…the entire Ai residence should be executed!”
Old woman, are you threatening me?
"Emperor, I won't marry!" Weixin could only place her hopes on the Emperor!
However, just as the Emperor was about to say something, the Empress Dowager said harshly again,""If you don't marry, you'll die. It's useless to beg anyone!”The Empress Dowager looked at the Emperor." Usually, this widow can do whatever you want, but this time, it's absolutely impossible. Unless this widow dies, don't even think about changing this widow's mind."”She would never allow her son to take Ai Weixin as his concubine, and marrying her to Han 'er was the best way!
The Empress Dowager then said to Weixin,"If you dare to break the marriage or run away, then…even if you dismiss all the servants in Ai Manor, this widow will find them and execute their entire family!"”As the Empress Dowager spoke, she ordered people to chase Weixin and Uncle Fu out. She didn't even give them a chance to say a word.
