Chapter 211

The Xue family entered the banquet cautiously with their tails between their legs.

Soon Emperor Qingyuan, the Empress and the Empress Dowager also joined the table. To everyone's surprise, Concubine Han, who hadn't shown up for a long time, also showed up tonight.

However, he still wears a veil on his face and a bamboo hat on his head, but the more this is the case, the more he stands out from the crowd.

It's hard to imagine that Concubine Han, who cares about face, can do this for the purpose of tonight, which shows how important tonight is to her.

It's a pity that with Ye Wu around, her plan will not work.

At this time, Ye Qiong and the previous Xue Ying also returned to the palace banquet, but Ye Qiong's expression was not very good at the moment, it was obvious that Xue Ying said something important.

But due to the scene, she could only hide in a hurry. The most important thing tonight was the concubine's plan and her marriage.

Thinking of this, Ye Qiong glanced shyly at the seats of the foreign ministers. Xiao Huanye had arrived long ago, and the silver-masked man from southern Xinjiang was also present. Probably because of his strange attire, he attracted many people's attention. .

But at this moment, there is another person who is more nervous than Ye Qiong, and that is Shen Yao, because today is the day they made an appointment with the crown prince Ye Jue to withdraw their engagement.

Their marriage contract is known to all courts, so it is natural that it will be terminated when all courts are present.

At this moment, the palace banquet gradually reached a small climax.

After having a few drinks with all the courtiers, it was time to perform in front of the imperial court. Now that Concubine Han has fallen, every family in the court has gradually become a little bit agitated.

And this time, is the best opportunity.

Ye Wu looked at the crown prince who was not far away, and the crown prince glanced back at her, then got up and bowed and said, "Father, at the close of the year, I have something I want to report to my father, and I hope my father will do it. "

The prince Ye Jue had always followed the rules, and this was the first time he proposed something.

Emperor Qingyuan himself was also surprised, but he was in a good mood today, so he nodded to let him talk.

"It was originally a happy event for me to get engaged to the daughter of the general's mansion when I was young, but in recent days, I have been in contact with the daughter of the Shen family, and both of us have discovered that there is no friendship between us. If we fulfill the marriage contract, I'm afraid it may not go smoothly. "Why don't we just call off the engagement..."

"presumptuous."

Before he could finish speaking, Emperor Qing Yuan was already slightly angry. Although he was not really angry, he still acted like he was going to do it, "How can the General's Mansion feel sorry for you, and you want to divorce?"

This matter was not only unexpected to Emperor Qing Yuan, Concubine Han, including other unaware courtiers, were all startled, thinking that the crown prince must be crazy.

A tree as big as the General's Mansion, if you don't hold it, you want to abandon it?

"Prince, think twice..."

Seeing this, Ye Jue immediately knelt down and said, "Father, please forgive me. This matter is not decided by the minister alone, but discussed with the daughter of the Shen family."

After finishing speaking, Shen Yao couldn't bear it any longer, stepped forward quickly, saluted and said: "Your Majesty, forgive me, what the crown prince said is absolutely true, we two have different interests, if we forcefully perform the marriage contract, I'm afraid it will not go smoothly, Your Majesty Mercy, I hope you will allow me."

The two knelt on the ground together.

Speaking of, in the past and present, the two of them were mostly resentful, and it was the first time they saw such a tidy one.

"what on earth is it?"

Emperor Qingyuan frowned, the crown prince lost the marriage contract, the momentum behind him might not be as good as before, why is he so overwhelmed?Emperor Qing Yuan really couldn't figure it out.

"Your Majesty, since the two of you came here together to ask for the decree to withdraw from the engagement, if you think about it, it's a literal meaning. The children's personalities don't match, why don't you just retire? Don't delay the performance later."

The queen spoke quietly at this moment.
