Chapter 321: Urging Marriage
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
This kid’s angry appearance might not even be something he could handle, so the Crown Prince patted him on the shoulder and laughed, “I’m just joking. Why is he still like this after not seeing him for two years? He hasn’t improved at all.”
The Emperor snorted coldly, “So what if he’s like this? I just think he’s pretty good. Don’t tell me he’s going to be like you?”
The Crown Prince did not know why the flames of war had shifted to him, but he said innocently, “What’s wrong with me?”
The Emperor was disappointed and said, “What’s wrong? You still have the face to say what’s wrong? Tell me, I wanted to arrange a marriage for you, but you didn’t want it. You had to find it yourself. I’ve searched for so long, but I still haven’t seen you find a female companion!”
Those ministers urged him by his ear every day. The noble daughter of his family had been waiting for the Crown Prince for several years, and he was annoyed by the noise.
At this moment, he was extremely regretful that he had agreed to the Crown Prince’s conditions. Previously, he had sent the Crown Prince to do a very difficult task, and he had thought that it would not succeed. Therefore, the
Crown Prince had said that if it succeeded, he would agree to a request of his.
He had agreed without even thinking. At that time, he had thought that the Crown Prince could have any request, and it was nothing more than to ask for something from his private vault, it was not that he could not afford it.
But later on, he did not think that the Crown Prince would actually succeed in that matter. The request he made was that he had to make the decision for his marriage.
At this time, it was too late for the Emperor to go back on his words. A gentleman’s words could not be taken back, so he could only agree.
At that time, he did not care too much. The Crown Prince could marry whichever family he wanted. In short, as the Crown Prince of Great Wei, he should be able to weigh the pros and cons of marrying a wife. He also wanted to use this matter to train the Crown Prince.
But he did not expect the Crown Prince to have no intention of marrying a wife!
All these years, no matter how much he and the Empress urged, no matter how much the ministers in the court urged, he and the Empress’s Eldest Princess were born, but the Crown Prince still remained unmoving!
Thus, all the pressure came to him. Those ministers were forcing him to change the Crown Prince. Every time at this time, the Emperor would cry out in regret. He wished he could go back to the past and slap himself in the face. What did he promise him!
The Crown Prince lowered his head guiltily. As expected, he should not have appeared in front of his father in private. The fire that his father was burning was about to reach him.
The Empress looked at him expectantly. “Crown Prince, when will I be able to hold a grandson? Don’t you feel sorry for me? I’m already so old. How many more years do I have to live? Is it so difficult for me to hold a grandson?”
The Crown Prince looked at the Empress, whose tears were streaming down her face, and his scalp went numb. He could only console her dryly, “As soon as possible, as soon as possible. I will definitely let you hold a grandson as soon as possible.”
At this moment, he also felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. It was not that he did not know how much pressure his father and mother had been under all these years. It was just that he had promised someone to wait for her, but no one had appeared all these years, he had almost searched the entire Great Wei, but he still could not find anyone. He did not know if he should continue this meaningless wait.
Jian Qingqing lowered her head and ate her melon silently. From the novels that she had read for many years, this Crown Prince definitely had someone in his heart. It was just that she did not know what kind of twists and turns of the story had happened, it had caused the Crown Prince to not marry until now, only waiting for her.
The Emperor and Empress were also open-minded, actually allowing him to do this kind of behavior. One had to know that the Crown Prince was related to the foundation of the country. It was a big taboo for the Crown Prince to not have a successor for many years. If it was not handled properly, it would shake the foundation of the country..
