Chapter 307: Chapter 307 - She Cannot Become Princess
Chapter 307 â She Cannot Become Princess
The empress dowager looked earnestly at him, wanting to find some hint or clue from his face. She understood Mo Rongzhan, and knew that he was never one to be bewitched by beauty. He was different from the previous emperor who had countless beauties in his harem. Apart from the initial Lu Wushuang, she had never seen him be especially doting towards someone. She had even begun to suspect that her son was a bit too emotionless. This was the first time she saw him so concerned over a girl. âYour Imperial Majesty, do you have other plans for Yaoyao?â
âImperial Mother, why do you ask as such?â Mo Rongzhan quietly asked, his handsome face still clear and cold.
âSeeing as you donât, I think it is still suitable for me to confer her the title. The last time, I wanted to make her a viscountess, but she was unwilling ⊠stated that she only wanted to be an Imperial Physician in the future. I have decided that Iâll make her a princess this time. In the future, itâll be up to her, whether she wants to be an Imperial Physician or not.â
Mo Rongzhanâs gaze deepened. âSheâs unwilling to become a viscountess?â
âI think that she might not even want a title of princess. However, Iâve already decided. Iâll make her Princess Furong.â
âImperial Mother!â Mo Rongzhanâs brows knitted even tighter. âLu Yaoyao cannot become a princess.â
If the empress dowager still couldnât tell what her son meant, then it would be a waste of so many years of living. She took a good look at Mo Rongzhan. âYour Imperial Majesty, I know that Yaoyao is a good girl. But what time did you think of her as such?â
A smudge of awkwardness flashed across Mo Rongzhanâs gaze. âImperial Mother, I donât understand what you mean.â
âDo you truly not understand, or are you just pretending to not understand?â She teased. âIf I give Yaoyao the title of princess, then she will be Your Imperial Majestyâs little sister. In the future, Your Imperial Majesty needs to direct a marriage for her, and find a good princess consort for her. What does Your Imperial Majesty think of this?â
The scene of Huangfu Chen holding her hand yesterday quickly flashed through his mind, his chest felt so stuffed it hurt. âI wonât direct a marriage for her.â He declared.
âOh, then I will direct a marriage for her.â She saw that her son was still stubbornly trying to deny his feelings, and lowered her head to search for a title again. âI think that there are not many men worthy of Yaoyao in the capital, but Marquis Jing Ning seems all right âŠ. Your Imperial Majesty, what do you think?â
âImperial Mother, I wonât let Lu Yaoyao become a princess.â Mo Rongzhanâs expression had already begun to darken.
The empress dowager felt that the matter was all the more amusing. âThen what do you want her to be? Would you prefer her be one of your concubines?â
Mo Rongzhanâs handsome face blossomed with a strange flush. He lightly coughed, before turning away. âI canât guarantee anything about the future.â
âIâve asked Yaoyao for her opinion. She doesnât seem to want it. Your Imperial Majesty, you canât engage in wishful thinking, and continue this unrequited love along.â If it were a girl of some other house that the emperor would take to heart this much, she would naturally wish for nothing more than to take her into the inner palace immediately. But it was different if it was Lu Yaoyao.
If that little girl wanted to enter the harem, then she wouldnât have refused her offer of viscountess. She was worried that the emperor would continue this wishful thinking, and force Lu Yaoyao into submission.
Mo Rongzhan was poked in his sore spot, his expression darkened like ink. As of today, wasnât he just engaging in wishful thinking, and continuing this unrequited love along? Not only did her heart already belong to another, she had also thrown up on him after he kissed her. Whenever he thought back to this, the sourness, jealousy, and anger in his heart would flare up like a roaring flame.
âSheâll naturally agree in the future.â He vehemently iterated.
The empress dowager frowned, looking at him. It seemed that he truly liked Yaoyao. âYou want Yaoyao to enter your harem. Then what about Wang Fei Lu?â
Wouldnât that be overtly exalting the Lu Family? She didnât really care about Yaoyaoâs status, but feared that what she would have to face when she entered the imperial palace would be rather grueling.
âImperial Mother, I know my own measures concerning this matter,â Mo Rongzhan said between gritted teeth.
After careful consideration, the empress dowager said, âYour Imperial Majesty, I still have to ask Yaoyao for her opinion. If she has no will of entering the inner palace, then I still want to make her a princess. Do you still remember what Mr. Chen said? If it werenât for the fact that AâYi has escaped danger over and over again, I would have forgotten his past words.â
Mo Rongzhan felt annoyed at the mere mention of Huangfu Chen. âWhat did Huangfu Chen say?â
âMr. Chen once divinated for AâYi, and said that he wouldnât be able to make it past 15 unless he met someone noble. At that time, I had asked who AâYiâs noble person was. Mr. Chen had said that it was most likely a family member. As of today, I think that Yaoyao is his noble person, so I want to make her a princess.â She said laughingly, âIf she is unwilling to become your concubine, then she must become my daughter.â
Mo Rongzhan suddenly felt that he disliked Huangfu Chen even more.
âImperial Mother, Huangfu Chen might not necessarily mean Lu Yaoyao.â
The empress dowager nodded. âThat is why I have already called for people to invite Mr. Chen into the palace, and let him divinate for AâYi again.â
ââ â Mo Rongzhan didnât actually know what to say.
âYour Imperial Majesty, if you are busy with official matters, then you need not stay here,â she said, smiling.
Mo Rongzhan wanted to say that he wanted to wait for Huangfu Chen, as he also wished to know the results of the divination. However, seeing as his mother had put it like this, it wasnât good for him to stay. âImperial Mother, then I will return to imperial study.â
She cheerily nodded. âGo ahead then.â
Mo Rongzhan could only retire and leave the Cining Palace, coldly ordering Eunuch Fu: âReport to me immediately if Huangfu Chen enters the palace.â
Eunuch Fu hurriedly heeded his words.
