Chapter 413
The Imperial Great-grandson was of course clear about Ling Jingshu’s intentions
She had come to thank her for her favor!Capturing the rebels and removing the rebellious party from the dynasty, this is all part of this king’s duties, so why talk about hard work”
Huang Taisun responded with a double entendre, “Speaking of which, you saved father, this king has never had the time to thank you”
Apart from the Lu family, it’s a reward you deserve, there’s no need to thank me
Through the veil, it was impossible to see how Ling Jingshu’s expression was, only her gentle and calm voice could be heard, “Your Highness is too kind
If it wasn’t for Your Highness’ care, I wouldn’t be in the position I’m in today
I should have come to your door to thank you
Just now is the status to be married, but it is inconvenient to come to the door again
Please forgive me, Your Highness”
The Imperial Great-grandson’s breath hitched slightly
She was telling him that she was about to marry Wei Yan
In order to avoid suspicion, there could be no more private involvement in the future
He had long expected that there would be such a day, and had long been psychologically prepared to bid her farewell completely
But when it really came to this moment, the heart still felt like it was being torn apartCongratulations to you and Dr Wei”
He heard himself calmly respond back, “Mother Consort has heard the happy news and has already prepared an addition gift, which will be sent to the Ling Mansion in the next few days
This king also has a congratulatory gift to offer”
Ling Jingshu did not excuse herself and bent down to make a bow, “Thank you in advance, Your Highness”
The breeze blew over, blowing up a corner of the soft light veil, revealing half of her delicate and moving face
He was so close to her, so close that he could see the hint of bitterness on her lips and the apology under her eyes
He and she were so far away again, so far that they were separated by a deep chasm that could no longer be touched
Huang Taisun’s hand trembled slightly, he gripped it tightly, not allowing himself to show half a bit of reluctance: ”This is an execution ground, it is inconvenient to stay for a long time
If there is nothing else, you siblings should leave and return to your home!”
Ling Jingshu and Ling Xiao answered in unison and bowed to leave
Huang Taisun watched Ling Jingshu’s figure go away, only to feel that there seemed to be something in his heart that followed him forever
One hour later
The Crown Princess hears that the Imperial Great-grandson has returned to the residence and is busy welcoming him out
Yan Wang was locked up in the clan house waiting to be sentenced, the position of the crown prince can no longer be shaken
Crown Princess’s life is also more comfortable day by day
Even though she was busy every day, she could not stop the complacency that radiated from the inside outAh Yao, why did you run to the execution ground”
The Prince Consort saw her son, her heart was happy, and she couldn’t help but ramble on for a few moments, “Beheading is bloody, what’s there to see
If you have this free time, you might as well spend more time with Nian’er”
Mentioning Nian’er, Huang Taisun’s handsome face like an ice sculpture eased some: “I am usually busy with court affairs, Nian’er all rely on mother consort to take care of
It’s been hard on mother consort”
The Crown Princess sighed: “There are nurses and palace maids who take care of it, and I look after it a little bit on weekdays, so it’s not that hard
Jiang has been gone for more than a year, Nian’er can already walk and is gradually learning to speak
It is better to have someone to take good care of Nian’er
You’ve been looking after Jiang for over a year, so you’ve done right by her
Now that the big picture is settled, it’s time for you to take the test to renew your marriage!”
Keeping mourning for his late wife for a year, he didn’t even have a serving concubine by his side
Even if it was the Jiang family, there was no blame to be placed on the Imperial Grandson for this heavy-handedness and righteousness
In these two months, the Crown Princess had already brought up the matter of renewal for the fifth time
Huang Taisun’s heart floated up a sense of annoyance for no reason, and briefly responded, “I’m too busy with imperial affairs to care about this, let’s talk about this matter later”
The Crown Princess, however, refused to let him go, frowning and glaring at him, “What can be more important than your life’s work
Do you want to keep on keeping on like this?
You only have Nian’er as your only son
It’s better to marry a virtuous granddaughter consort back early and have more heirs”I’ve already had someone prepare a few portraits of the capital’s ladies, so I’ll have someone fetch them over for you to take a look
If you think the portraits are dull, you might as well organize another banquet and invite more girls with outstanding family backgrounds and talents to your door
When the time comes, you can secretly take a look and pick one you like”
Huang Taisun’s frown became tighter and tighter and his voice became more and more indifferent and impatient, “Mother consort, I really have no intention of taking a wife now
You should leave this matter alone”
The Prince Consort’s suppressed dissatisfaction immediately erupted, “How can I not care!
Look at you, are you thinking of the dead Jiang, or are you thinking of Ling Jingshu?”
Huang Taisun: ” “Huang Taisun’s face steeply sank
It was a pity that the woman standing in front of him was his own mother, and the only person in this Great Zhou Dynasty who did not have to look at his face to speak and actWhen Jiang was alive, you weren’t warm and cold to her
This death, you are affectionate”
The Crown Princess had a look of hateful anger: “You’ve already guarded her for a year, do you want to keep guarding her?”And that Ling Jingshu, she saved your father’s life, I am grateful to her in my heart
If you insist on marrying her, I won’t be able to object anymore
Empress Wei has already arranged a marriage for her, and she will be married in less than a month
What are you going to do?
Do you still want to snatch someone back to your house?”
These words, more direct and sharp than one, poked the scars he buried deep in his heart to the point of dripping blood
Yes!
It was he who was sorry for Solstice!
When she was alive, he didn’t treat her well
After she died, he thought of her from time to time, and every time he thought of her, his heart ached
He was also sorry for himself
He obviously liked Ling Jingshu, but for various reasons, he missed the best time to marry her
He was even more sorry for Ling Jingshu
After Ling Jingshu entered the country, her fate was uncertain, and he, the Imperial Grandson, could do nothing about it
In her most dangerous and helpless time, the one who accompanied her and saved her from the fire was Wei Yan!
She and Wei Yan were in love
With Empress Wei’s order, she will marry Wei Yan in splendor, enough to make all the famous girls envious
A lover’s love will always be a lover’s love
Between her and Wei Yan, there is no room for him
What qualifications does he have to think about her anymore?
The Emperor’s great-grandson’s face turned white, his lips pursed extremely tightly as he squeezed out a few words, “Mother consort, you should stop saying that”
Looking at Huang Taisun’s face of pain, the Crown Princess also felt remorseful: “Ah Yao, I didn’t mean to embarrass you
I just hope that you can let go and live a more relaxed life
Don’t always smother your heart in your heart”
Huang Taisun slightly sidestepped his head, and his voice also lowered a few points, “I have no intention of blaming Mother Consort
The matter of renewing the marriage, wait until after this year”
It was rare that he loosened his mouth
Crown Princess also did not dare to push too hard, and nodded her head in response
The Imperial Prince Sun added, “Mother Consort, Ling Jingshu had saved Father King, and Wei Yan spent half a year conditioning Father King’s body
Both of them have been kind to our Crown Prince House
Mother Consort’s additional gifts should be prepared more generously”
The Crown Princess immediately smiled, “This is natural
I have already prepared it long ago, and I will have someone send it to the Ling Mansion tomorrow”
