Chapter 119: Mind Reading, I Became the Big Boss in the Heroine’s Mouth 4
"Your Highness, I will obey your Majesty."
"Fourth Brother, tell me honestly, what do you think of the young lady from the Pei family?"
The fourth prince spoke the truth.
"Queen Mother, I haven't even met her, but I've heard some rumors about her. However, those rumors aren't very good. I don't know if I should believe them."
The emperor asked tentatively.
"If I grant you a marriage, what do you think?"
"Your Highness, I will obey your Majesty."
No matter what the emperor said, the fourth prince said he would listen to him.
In the end, the emperor was too lazy to ask any more questions and let the fourth prince go back first.
As time passed, there was no movement from the emperor.
Fuling went to ask her mother again.
Pei Huili was also unsure, wondering whether the emperor had forgotten or was just not satisfied with the marriage.
Just as Pei Huili was trying to find out the emperor's thoughts, the imperial edict granting marriage was delivered to Pei's mansion.
This imperial decree granting marriage shocked all the ministers in the court.
They had not received any news before.
Ni Mansion.
Kang Xuyan saw that his wife seemed to be worried, so he asked in a gentle voice.
"Wife, you are in a bad mood."
They have a good relationship as a couple, so they have no concerns when talking to each other.
"Xuyan, what do you mean by the Emperor suddenly decreeing that the Fourth Prince should be married to the Prime Minister's residence?"
Kang Xuyan frowned and thought for a while.
"Could it be that the Emperor wants to win over the Prime Minister?"
"Impossible. The Prime Minister is a royalist to begin with. He doesn't need to be won over."
[Dad, Mom, you're just overthinking it. We're in love.]
Ni Ruixue came from later generations, and her understanding of the Great Chu Dynasty came entirely from various film and television works.
The most talked about thing is Pei Fuling's feelings.
Some people say that she only married the Fourth Prince in her life. There are also unofficial historical records that in addition to the Fourth Prince, Pei Fuling also had two concubines.
But no one knows the names of the two side lords.
There is no record of this in history books.
Kang Xuyan and Ni Xiangyu looked at each other, then turned their gaze to their daughter who was playing on the carpet.
Ni Xiangyu waved to Ni Ruixue.
"Xue'er, come here, mother has something to tell you."
Ni Ruixue threw away the toy in her hand, stood up, and quickly walked to Ni Xiangyu with her short legs.
Ni Xiangyu reached out and held her in his arms.
She moved her body, found a comfortable sitting position, and then asked.
"Mom, what do you want to tell me?"
"Talk about your sister Fuling."
Ni Ruixue tilted her head and pretended to be confused.
"Mom, Sister Fuling, what's wrong?"
[When will I grow up? It's so hard to be a child.]
"Your sister Fuling will be getting married in two months. Then I will take you to the Pei Mansion to visit her."
"Getting married, getting married is good, but then will I have another brother-in-law?"
"That's the theory."
[So exciting, the fight is about to begin.]
Ni Xiangyu extracted the useful parts of what Fuling was thinking.
First, the Fourth Prince and Pei Fuling are a match made in heaven.
Second, after the two get married, the situation in the court will change.
Knowing that Fuling was getting married, Ni Ruixue took out his own small treasury, found Ni Ruilin, and asked her to accompany him to buy gifts outside.
She started crying if Ni Ruilin didn't agree.
In the end, Ni Ruilin had to agree.
The two sisters came to the largest silver shop in the imperial city.
Ni Ruixue picked for a long time and finally realized that she could only buy very few things with the money she had saved for several years.
She bought a pair of tassel earrings and a gold hairpin and her savings were used up.
Holding the gifts she bought, Ni Ruixue asked Ni Ruilin to take her to Pei Mansion.
Fuling heard the doorman announce that there were two young ladies named Ni looking for her at the door.
She waved to the doorman to bring someone in.
She was the one who got married, but she actually had the most free time.
Under the guidance of the doorman, Ni Ruilin and Ni Ruixue came to Fuling's yard.
This was Ni Ruixue's first time in the Prime Minister's Mansion. Everything she saw was curious. She found that the Prime Minister's Mansion was much larger than their General's Mansion.
It took a cup of tea to reach Fuling's yard.
The doorman took the Ni Ruixue sisters to Fuling's yard and then left.
Fuling had snacks and tea served to the two of them.
"Why are you here?"
Ni Ruixue blinked her big, bright eyes and asked curiously.
"Sister Fuling, I heard you're getting married. Is that true?"
"Of course, I'm seventeen now, so it's normal for me to get married."
Ni Ruixue took out the gifts she bought and placed them on the stone table.
"Sister Fuling, this is a wedding gift for you. I hope you like it."
"Thank you, I like it very much."
The three of them talked for a while, and seeing that it was getting late, the sisters Ni Ruilin and Ni Ruixue reluctantly left.
At night, Fuling turned off the lights and was about to go to bed when she found someone on the bed. Her eyes became alert.
"Who?"
Fuling lit the light again, and the scene she saw made her eyes widen.
There was a beautiful woman in red lying on her bed.
Fuling swallowed and spoke with a stuttering voice.
"You...when did you come?"
Qin Yueze cast a coquettish glance at her and said in a low voice.
"If I hadn't come, I wouldn't have known you were getting married. Didn't you say you liked me?"
Being stared at by Qin Yueze's resentful eyes, Fuling was embarrassed and didn't know what to say.
After all, she did say that, and there was no way to refute it.
"Really? Then what am I?"
Before Qin Yueze's problem was resolved, the window next to him suddenly opened and Yu Tingen, dressed in black, jumped in.
Looking at the person who suddenly appeared, Qin Yueze couldn't remain calm this time. He got up from the bed with a swift movement and flashed in front of Fuling.
"A Ling, who is he?"
Yu Tingen raised an eyebrow and asked back.
"and who are you?"
Fuling walked to the table, poured each of them a cup of tea, and greeted them with a smile.
"Have a cup of tea first."
The two men looked at each other, snorted coldly, and sat down opposite Fuling, one on the left and one on the right.
They all picked up the teacups on the table and drank them all in one gulp.
"It's a long story..."
Qin Yueze interrupted.
"It's okay, take your time, I have plenty of time."
Yu Tingen nodded.
The two of them looked at her, waiting for her explanation.
Fuling didn't intend to hide it and told the truth directly.
Qin Yueze and Yu Ting'en had already guessed something when they saw each other, and accepted what Fuling said well.
Fuling is the prime minister's only daughter, so it is impossible for her to marry only one person.
Qin Yueze is young and impatient.
"A Ling, what are you going to do with me?"
Poria cocos is difficult.
"Of course I want to marry you, but..."
Although Fuling didn't finish her words, Qin Yueze also knew that he was the legitimate son of the general who guarded the country, and it was destined that no matter who he married, he would be the legitimate wife.
Now Fuling already has a husband, which means that if he insists on marrying Fuling, he can only be her mistress.
"A Ling, I am willing, you can't abandon me."
Yu Ting'en couldn't act as coquettishly as Qin Yueze, but he also looked at Fuling eagerly.
If you don't mind, I will ask my mother to propose marriage when the Fourth Prince comes home. I'm sorry to bother you.
Qin Yueze shook his head.
"A Ling, I don't feel wronged, as long as I can marry you."
Yu Ting'en echoed.
"Me too."
The three of them chatted for a long time until dawn, when Qin Yueze and Yu Tingen reluctantly left.
After seeing the two off, Fuling yawned, climbed onto the bed and fell asleep.
Because she slept so soundly, the maid who served her thought she was sick and hurriedly called for the palace doctor.
After the court doctor examined her, he said that she was just asleep, and the maid was relieved.
Fuling slept until 3:15 pm.
The maid was very happy to see her wake up.
"Miss, you are finally awake."
Fuling stretched her neck and then asked.
"Xiao Cui, what time is it now?"
Xiao Cui picked up the clothes next to her and replied while helping Fuling put them on.
"Miss, it's three quarters past noon."
When she heard it was three quarters past noon, Fuling was startled.
"Have I slept for so long?"
"That's right. This morning I came to wake the young lady as usual, but she wouldn't wake up no matter how hard I tried. So I called the doctor in the mansion, and the doctor said, 'Young lady, you've fallen asleep.'"
"Miss, didn't you go to bed early last night..."
Fuling just found an excuse.
"I was so happy last night that I didn't sleep well until dawn."
"Miss, you are happy because you are going to marry a husband."
Fuling raised her hand and knocked on Xiaocui's forehead, saying unhappily.
"Well, you little Cui, you actually learned to make fun of your young lady. Believe it or not, I will find you a young master too."
"Miss, Xiao Cui is wrong. I only want to serve you, not any young master."
The master and servant quarreled for a while.
Fuling packed up, filled her stomach, and found Pei Huili in the study.
"Mom, I have something to tell you."
Pei Huili put down her pen and rubbed her forehead with her hand.
"what's up?"
Fuling didn't sell out the light, and directly told her about her relationship with Qin Yueze and Qian Ting'en.
Pei Huili didn't know what to say to her daughter.
If you don't make a sound, you will be a big hit.
"My dear, it's easy to talk to the Cavalry Commander, but it's hard to talk to the General who protects the country."
As a general guarding the country, her legitimate son can marry the princess and become the king.
How could a general guarding the country marry his legitimate son to someone else as a concubine?
"Mom, Qin Yueze and I are truly in love, you must help me."
Fuling clasped her hands together and looked at her mother pitifully.
Pei Huili gave Fuling a blank look.
"Last time you wanted to marry the Fourth Prince, you also said that you two were truly in love."
"Tell me honestly, how did you get to know them?"
"Mom, I told you not to be angry?"
"I'm not angry, just say it!"
Fuling told the whole story of how she had people check the information of unmarried men in the imperial city, how she screened them, and finally decided on the candidate, and then how she acted as a thief.
Hearing that she ran to the palace in the middle of the night, Pei Huili was terrified. She reached out and grabbed Fuling's ear.
"Pei Fuling, you're getting too independent. Have I ever told you to think twice before you act? Look at what you've done."
Fuling retorted softly.
"Mom, you asked me to marry, I was just listening to you..."
"Did I ask you to go to the palace so late at night?"
