Rumor Has It That I’m Pregnant with His Highness’ Child: Chapter 318 convict
Chapter 318 Condemnation
For the daughter of Princess Tao Ran, the old emperor actually didn't have much affection.
When he learned that she was born, the old emperor's reaction was very dull, and he even prepared for the child's early death.
After all, raising a child in the palace is an extremely difficult thing, and the death of princes and princesses often happens.
A princess who is not valued like Princess Tao Ran will definitely not be well taken care of, and there is a high probability of premature death.
But the fact is beyond the old emperor's expectations, Princess Tao Ran has grown up smoothly.
When he heard the news of Princess Tao Ran's suicide yesterday, the old emperor's first reaction was to feel ashamed.
The dignified princess of a country, she actually had to die for a man.
I don't have the guts to be a princess at all, and I really lose the face of the royal family!
Later, the old emperor thought about it again and felt that this was a good opportunity to test Xiao Wan.
He wanted to point Princess Tao Ran to Xiao Juan and see how Xiao Juan reacted?
If Xiao Juan refuses, it means that Xiao Juan is not really surrendering to his emperor.
Conversely, it shows that Xiao Juan has no intention of not being a minister.
Who would have thought that he had hinted so many words, but Xiao Juan just didn't take it up.
In the end, Xiao Juan threw the pot on his father.
The old emperor was suffocated for a while, and finally decided not to go around in circles with him, and said straight to the point.
"I am busy with government affairs, and I have been in poor health recently. I really can't find time to accompany Tao Ran from time to time. I also deeply apologize for this.
In order to make up for Tao Ran, I plan to fulfill her obsession and let her marry you. What do you think? "
Xiao Juan immediately said: "Wei Chen's family already has a wife, and Princess Tao Ran is a daughter of gold, so she must not be a concubine!"
The old emperor: "Then divorce his wife and marry again, or let Yu curling as a concubine and Tao Ran as his wife."
Xiao Juan: "It was His Majesty's will to marry Ling Yao as his wife. Now, if you want Wei Chen to divorce his wife and marry again, wouldn't it be against the imperial decree? How will people in the world view Wei Chen in the future?"
The old emperor stared at him: "So, you don't want to marry Tao Ran?"
"Princess Tao Ran is a golden branch and jade leaf, and being able to marry her is a blessing from a previous life.
But His Majesty had already ordered a marriage for Wei Chen before, and everyone in the world knew it at this time.
If His Majesty once again decreed to give Wei Chen a marriage, and asked Wei Chen to divorce his wife and marry again, it would be a perfidy act.
Weichen lost his integrity and was poked in the spine.
But if people in the world feel that His Majesty's imperial decree is changed at night, it will damage His Majesty's image in the hearts of the people of the world, then it will be a big deal! "
The old emperor sank his face: "Presumptuous! How dare you say that I am treachery?!"
Xiao Lian knelt down on his knees, his forehead touching the ground.
"My minister's words are inappropriate, please calm down your anger."
The voice of the old emperor contained anger.
"You don't want to talk to me, I just ask you one question, do you want to marry Tao Ran?"
Xiao Yan's forehead was dripping with fine beads of sweat, and he had already made the worst plan in his heart.
"Wei Chen is unwilling."
The old emperor's eyes quickly turned cold.
Now he is just asking Xiao Juan to marry a princess, but Xiao Juan is not willing.
Wouldn't it be more difficult for him to let Xiao Wan do something else in the future?
Old Emperor: "Are you sure you won't change?"
Xiao Juan said without hesitation.
"to not fix."
The old emperor asked again: "If you don't obey the decree, do you know what will happen?"
Xiao Lian raised his hands, took off the crown of hair on the top of his head, put it on the ground beside him, and respectfully kowtowed to the old emperor.
"If you don't obey the decree, you will kill without mercy!
Weichen, willing to die. "
Seeing his resolute appearance, the old emperor actually appreciated it.
"Are you really going to lose your life for a woman?"
Xiao Lian said slowly.
"His Majesty has taught Wei Chen from a young age that the most important thing in being a person is to be honest and upright.
You can't be complacent just because you are in a high position, and you can't be ungrateful just because you protect yourself.
WeChen has always followed your teachings.
Whether it is to the family or to His Majesty, Wei Chen must be consistent. "
The old emperor was quite moved when he heard this.
Xiao Juan's words are not without reason.
If Xiao Juan can divorce his wife and remarry in order to save himself today, will Xiao Juan betray his emperor for his own benefit in the future?
Compared with raising a white-eyed wolf, the old emperor would rather Xiao Juan continue to maintain the status quo.
The obedient and obedient are easy to obtain, but the honest and upright are rare.
The former can make people feel good, but at the critical moment, the latter is the most reliable.
The folds on the old emperor's face relaxed a little, and his gaze towards Xiao Lian became much gentler.
But his voice was still stern.
"I am willing to betroth the princess to you, because I look down on you, but you dare to resist the edict? You are really bold!
Someone, take Xiao Lan down and scold him ten times, as an example! "
Xiao Lian nodded: "Wei Chen thank Your Majesty for your kindness."
Soon Xiao Yan was taken down.
The old emperor glanced at Wei Wynn beside him.
"Go watch a little bit, let the guards act a little bit."
Hearing this, Wei Wynn immediately understood in his heart that the emperor just wanted to pretend, not really want to blame Xiao Wan.
Wei Wynn walked out of the Shang study and winked at the guards who were about to start.
The guards understood and changed a hollow court stick.
This court stick looks thick, but it doesn't hurt when you hit it.
Just as they were about to start, they suddenly heard a hoarse voice.
"Wait a moment!"
Everyone looked for fame and found that it was Princess Tao Ran who came.
She was supported by two palace maids, her face was pale and thin, her eyes were red, her eyelids were still puffy, and she had been crying for a long time.
Way Wynn and the guards saluted her.
"Meet Her Royal Highness."
Princess Tao Ran didn't even look at anyone else, her eyes were fixed on Xiao Juan.
"Cousin Mozhu, are you really willing to be beaten rather than marry me?"
Xiao Juan responded calmly: "I'm very grateful for the princess' love, but I'm sorry, I have no relationship with you in this life."
Tears flowed from Princess Tao Ran's eyes.
She cried and laughed, and her laughter was desperate and frantic.
"Good! Good you Xiao Jian! Since you are ruthless to me, don't blame me for being ruthless to you!"
She looked at the two guards holding court staff, and said bitterly.
"What are you still doing? Hurry up!"
The imperial guards quickly picked up the court stick and hit Xiao Lian's back.
They looked like they used a lot of strength at first, but in fact they quietly lost most of their strength the moment they fell. In addition, the court stick was hollow, so it didn't feel any pain when it was placed on Xiao Lian's back.
Princess Tao Ran felt extremely relieved when she saw Xiao Wan being beaten.
"As long as you beg me now, I can consider interceding for you and let the royal father spare you."
Xiao Juan ignored her.
Seeing that he didn't even give her a straight eye, Princess Tao Ran hated it even more.
she yelled at the two guards.
"Did you not eat? How come there is no sound at all? If you are not strong enough, someone else will fight!"
