Venomous Empress Reborn

Chapter 710 - 710 Grant a Marriage (1)



710 Grant a Marriage (1)

“Miss Shen?” The crown prince was stunned at first, then he cried out, “Shen Miao?”

Fu Xiuyi looked at him and smiled without saying anything.

“No.” The crown prince shook his head and said, “Miss Shen is the apple of General Shen’s eye. She’s not engaged yet. I’m afraid he values his daughter’s marriage very much and won’t be willing to see his daughter end up among a bunch of consorts. Besides,” the crown prince glanced at Fu Xiuyi mischievously and smiled, “Everyone in the capital knows that Miss Shen liked you back then. I can’t win her heart.”

Fu Xiuyi smiled and shook his head. “She doesn’t like me. Back then, she was just joking when she was young. Otherwise, look, all these years, she’s been treating me like an outsider.”

The crown prince thought about it carefully. Over the past two years, when Shen Miao saw Fu Xiuyi again, she did not seem to be as passionate towards Fu Xiuyi as before. The princes were also very puzzled. However, the crown prince still said, “Maybe Miss Shen is angry with you because you treated her badly back then.”

“Brother, don’t tease me.” Fu Xiuyi smiled and said, “Besides, the Shen family is too big a fish for me. I’m willing to find a wife with a less prominent status. Speaking of which,” Fu Xiuyi said seriously, “Brother, why do you have to worry about what General Shen and Miss Shen will think? The best way is to leave this matter to Father.”

“Father?”

“That’s right.” Fu Xiuyi saw that the wine glass in front of the crown prince was empty, so he filled it up and said unhurriedly, “Father dotes on you the most. Since Father wants to support you, he will definitely find a powerful aide for you. If you want to marry Miss Shen, Father will definitely be happy to see it happen. As long as he gives the word, the marriage will be settled.”

“Ninth Brother, you’re thinking too simply.” The crown prince shook his head. “You have to know that if Miss Shen doesn’t want to marry me, although she has no choice but to marry me because Father said so, she will always hold a grudge against me in the future. General Shen will also be angry with Father. If the marriage doesn’t work out and they become my enemies, that will be terrible.”

“Brother, why do you think that way?” Fu Xiuyi looked at him in surprise. “What all the women in the world want is a rich and stable future. Although she can’t be the first consort after marrying you, her status as the crown prince’s secondary consort is not low. In the future, when you ascend the throne, Miss Shen will naturally be promoted to a consort. Brother, you have a gentle personality. As long as you treat Miss Shen well, she will forget about the grudge. For example, when the crown princess married you back then, it was also Father who granted the marriage. Look at what happened now. She likes you wholeheartedly.”

When the crown prince heard this, he felt that what Fu Xiuyi said made sense. Back then, the marriage between him and the crown princess was also granted by the emperor. Before that, they had only seen each other a few times. At first, the crown princess was resentful. Now, she was deeply in love with the crown prince and was always thinking for him.

“Women are all like this. As long as you treat her well, she will be loyal to you. Brother, you are the best among all men. All the women will fall for you.”

The crown prince was a little embarrassed by Fu Xiuyi’s praises. The two brothers had a heart to heart conversation and chatted harmoniously.

However, late at night, right after Fu Xiuyi left the Eastern Palace, the drunkenness on the crown prince’s face disappeared, replaced by soberness.

The aide walked out from behind and looked at the crown prince, asking tentatively. “Your Highness, what the ninth prince said just now…”
