Chapter 23: Red Beans Are Dead(2/2)

"Thank you, Father, for the marriage."

Hearing this, Ye Yilan looked at him in disbelief.

He never expected that the emperor would grant him a marriage, but he accepted it happily without any objection.

By God's blessing, the emperor issued an edict: Ye Yilan, the daughter of the Ye family, is a smart and beautiful woman, and is the candidate for my favorite daughter-in-law. From now on, I will betroth Ye Yilan to the fourth prince. She will never leave the palace.

——I admire this

"Miss Ye, this is the emperor's gift to the Ye family, but you haven't accepted the order yet."

"Ye Yilan, thank you Lord for your kindness."

Favorite daughter-in-law?

Never be able to leave the palace?

It is simply nonsense to talk about Ye Yilan's coming.

She never thought that she would be betrothed to Murong Haochen. She promised him that she would wait for him to come back and propose marriage to the emperor.

Little did he know that things would turn into what they are today.

Murong Haochen took her out and didn't care about any of her actions. Even though he knew her reluctance, he still pretended to smile: "Lan'er, in the future you can..."

"Don't touch me."

"Did you ask for this imperial edict?"

"yes."

She would rather he said no, then she would believe it.

He smiled helplessly: "Congratulations, Your Highness, your goal has been achieved."

He raised the imperial edict high and threw it at him. He didn't try to catch it, but let it roll slowly to the ground.

"It would be disrespectful for the Emperor to see this, Your Highness."

This was the first time for Xia Shen to see the emperor granting a marriage and throwing the imperial edict at the Fourth Highness. If it were another woman with such a blessing, she would be eager to fall into the arms of the Fourth Highness immediately.

"It doesn't matter."

Looking at her leaving figure, she must have felt all kinds of pain in her heart.

But he could only keep her in this way.

Ye Yilan, you are right. My goal has been achieved. I can tie you firmly to my side and never let you leave me for even one step.

"Miss is not allowed to leave the main hall without the order of His Highness the Fourth Prince."

Ye Yilan wanted to leave the hall, but after hearing that it was Murong Haochen who gave the order, he made plans early for fear that he would leave the hall.

"Your Majesty, please see the Fourth Highness."

"Come here, take Ye Yilan down. She is not allowed to step out of the palace without my order."

Without even looking at her, he walked past her indifferently.

That distance seems very close, but is actually very far away.

He didn't know where he started to think that their relationship was so far apart.

If it hadn't been for that time, there might have been a different ending.

No matter how much she tried, she couldn't get away.

That imperial edict tied her whole life together.

"Dong——dong——"

The next day, Ye Yilan was awakened by the clock, opened the curtain and asked, "Zi Ling, what is this sound?"

"Your Majesty, you are dead."

The death knell rang throughout the palace.

According to palace rules, whenever the death knell is heard, one must kneel down and observe silence.

Seeing her changing clothes, he immediately stopped her: "Miss, what are you going to do? You must not go out at this time."

"Hurry and dress me up, I have to go find His Highness the Fourth."

"No, Manager Xia is determined to be in Xuandu's posthumous order at this moment."

Knowing that he was about to succeed to the throne, he just wanted to hear the decree in person: "I can't even hide aside and watch?"

His Highness had ordered her not to go out at will, but he still let her go: "Zi Ling, I will freshen and change the clothes for the young lady."

Looking at my negative self in the mirror is simply pathetic.

In accordance with God's destiny, the emperor issued an edict: The fourth son of the emperor, Murong Haochen, is of noble character and deeply respected by me. He will surely be able to inherit the throne. After me ascend the throne, he will be the emperor.

——I admire this

"Wait a minute——"

Seeing that he was about to take over the imperial edict, eldest son Chengde stood up and stopped him. After all, this imperial edict could not convince the public at all. He questioned: "The Fourth Highness disappeared inexplicably a few days ago, and then appeared in the palace of the late emperor, and took care of the late emperor for several days. This

I'm afraid it's a forgery!"

"According to what the Prime Minister said, who do you hope can inherit the throne? Prime Minister yourself or someone else."

Murong Haochen ignored him at all, took the imperial edict and stood in front of the dragon throne.

That day, his father asked him to stand here and watch. Only then did he realize that he was standing on a high roof and looking up at those arrogant villains.

"My father has already handed over the military talisman to me, otherwise how could I have ordered the imperial guards to surround this place. The Prime Minister has noticed that there was something unusual in this hall in the past two days. Who will give this throne to, everyone?

You adults naturally understand in your heart. I, Murong Haochen, have a clear conscience."

All the ministers present did not dare to act rashly.

Although Murong Haochen led troops into the palace, he did not bring any weapons.

They didn't dare to act recklessly and knelt down one after another.

"I see you, Your Majesty. Long live my Emperor! Long live my Majesty—"

Seeing that everyone was bowing down to the new emperor, the eldest grandson, Chengde, bowed reluctantly.
