Her beautiful clothes, her rouge jewelry, she cherished and caressed them, her heartache.
If she had to live the rest of her life under everyone’s ridicule, she would rather die!
After Chu Jinling finished speaking, he ran out like a gust of wind.
He flew into the palace and went to Chu Mingyuan’s place first. He knelt in front of him and said, “Father, I wanted to get married. Please quickly bestow a marriage to me!”
Chu Mingyuan frowned as he read the memorials. “Married? Marry who?”
Chu Jinling was not outstanding among his many sons, but he had a pure heart and had always been obedient.
Now that he suddenly said that he wanted to get married, he was slightly surprised.
“Lin Sisi! General Lin’s daughter, Father, I, and Sisi are both in love. I’ve already proposed marriage to General Lin. Write the imperial decree now, and 1’11 bring it to the General Manor immediately!”
Chu Jinling pounced in front of the imperial table, his fair and handsome face full of anxiety.
“Nonsense!” Chu Mingyuan reprimanded him, “How can a prince propose marriage so hastily? General Lin’s daughter can be your imperial consort, but she needs to be betrothed by the Ministry of Rites after I bestow the marriage. You are so impatient and have lost the face of the royal family. 1 will tell your mother to teach you a lesson!”
Chu Mingyuan rarely got angry at Chu Jinling.
Chu Jinling was most afraid that he would get angry. In the past, he would have already hidden to the side and shivered.
But now, he found an imperial edict and urged him with red eyes, “Father!” 1 beg you, please write the imperial edict! 1 want to marry Sisi! 1 want to marry Sisi!”
“What happened?” Chu Mingyuan’s brows furrowed as he noticed that something was wrong with Chu Jinling.
Chu Jinling explained the reason to him. He leaned on the table nervously, “Father, Sisi doesn’t have time. I’m afraid 1 won’t be able to make it in time if 1 rush back. Please hurry!”
If it wasn’t for the fact that overstepping one’s authority was a major crime, he would have written an imperial edict and stamped it with the jade seal before rushing back to General Manor.
Chu Mingyuan put down his brush, and his face darkened. “Lin Sisi is about to be disfigured. How can you marry a disfigured princess? 1 won’t allow it!”
“Father!” Chu Jinling widened his eyes and grabbed Chu Mingyuan’s arm anxiously. “I want Sisi!” 1 don’t care, I want to marry her!”
Chu Mingyuan had always doted on him, but he couldn’t stand him making such a fuss, so he ordered people to call Noble Consort Xiao over.
Noble Consort Xiao grabbed Chu Jinling by the ear and took him away.
In Noble Consort Xiao’s palace, she kicked Chu Jinling into the main hall and reprimanded him coldly, “Are you crazy? How dare you go to your father’s place to cause trouble! If 1 don’t beat you up for three days, you want to cause trouble again!”
“Mother…Please help me beg my father to bestow me with a marriage! Sisi is waiting for me!”
His heart was anxious. If he wasn’t afraid of deceiving the emperor, he wanted to follow his father’s handwritten imperial edict.
Noble Consort Xiao elegantly laid on the chaise lounge, exuding an air of nobility. “If that girl from the Lin family is unharmed and becomes your main consort, as long as you’re happy, I won’t say anything! But she’s disfigured. How can an ugly woman be the imperial consort?”
“Sisi isn’t an ugly woman, she isn’t!” Chu Jinling stood up angrily and rushed to his mother. “She is the most beautiful!”
“Come on, that young girl can only be considered delicate and pretty. She also likes to brandish knives and guns. How can she be as beautiful as the girls of our Xiao family? If you like her, I can let her be your concubine.” Noble Consort Xiao supported her head lazily. Beside her, the palace servants were meticulously serving her..
