On the Day the Scumbag Got Married, I Lay Flat and Became His Sister-in-law - Chapter 299

  Chapter 299 Two Princes and Concubines

  Mai Shangshu also knew why these old foxes came to drink tea with him suddenly, they just wanted to find out about Zhou Mu’s situation.

  At this point, Mai Shangshu felt that there was nothing to hide, so he told all the details he knew.

   After he finished speaking, everyone fell silent.

  If there were any doubts before, this time everyone is sure that the probability of Zhou Mu being the eldest son of the emperor is more than 90%.

   “Could it be that we checked the wrong direction? Or could it be that His Majesty deliberately pushed Mr. Zhou out to confuse our attention?” Qiu Shangshu was cautious, but still a little worried.

   Dali Temple Minister Zhong He said: “I think Mr. Zhou is 100% the noble person we are looking for.”

   “What do you mean by that?” It was Zhao Wen who asked.

“As far as I know, Mr. Zhou lived in Fallen Immortal Temple before he entered the officialdom, and he studied under Master Mingjue. His Highness was dying when he was born. It is said that he lost his breath on the spot. Your Majesty, that expert must be Master Mingjue.” Zhong He had already made up his mind, but he still made this trip because he wanted to confirm this fact from Mai Shangshu.

  As soon as he said this, everyone picked up their teacups and drank tea in a tacit understanding.

  In the past, everyone thought that His Royal Highness King Qin was the best candidate for the crown prince. They didn’t need to stand in line, after all, Emperor Cheng De paid the highest attention to His Highness King Qin.

  Before His Highness the First Prince appeared, it was a tacit understanding among everyone that His Highness King Qin was made the crown prince.

   Now that something has changed, everyone has another calculation in their hearts.

“By the way, there is one more thing. Master Zhou is going to get married, and His Royal Highness King Qin is also going to get married soon. Both of them will get married on the second day of February. I wonder which one of the adults will have the wedding wine at that time?!” asked It was Qiu Shangshu from the Ministry of War.

  The other people obviously didn’t expect this, they were stunned at the same time, and soon picked up their teacups and drank tea to hide their embarrassment.

If before the eldest prince appeared, they would undoubtedly go to Prince Qin’s mansion to have a wedding wine, but the first prince suddenly came back to life, if they didn’t go to the first prince’s mansion to have a wedding wine, and wait for the first prince to be established as the crown prince, and then ascend the throne as emperor in the future, wouldn’t that be Didn’t he offend the future king?

  Seeing that no one answered, Qiu Shangshu asked Zhong Hedao: “Which house does Master Zhong plan to go to for a wedding?”

  Zhong He coughed lightly, and said ambiguously: “I haven’t thought about it yet.”

  If Zhou Mu is the eldest prince, then surely he can’t be offended? But His Royal Highness King Qin is not easy to offend. After all, His Royal Highness King Qin also has a lot of power in the court, and there are virtuous concubines in the harem. Maybe one day when the concubine Xian blows the pillow, the crown prince will be in the hands of His Highness King Qin.

  Mai Shangshu is the one with the least pressure. He said cheerfully: “Since Mr. Zhou is working in the household department, my colleague will naturally go to have a glass of wedding wine from Mr. Zhou.”

   Several other adults secretly scolded Mai Shangshu as an old fox.

  However, they are also very envious of Lao Mai. Zhou Mu works in the household department, so Lao Mai has some friendship with Zhou Mu. If Zhou Mu becomes the prince in the future, won’t Lao Mai also be honored?

  After eating this tea, everyone went back to their respective houses, and they stayed up all night, just because they were worried about where they would go for the wedding banquet on the day when Long raised his head.

  There is no impenetrable wall in the world, and the story of Mai Shangshu drinking tea with several court officials quickly spread throughout the officialdom.

  In less than a day, many people received the news that Zhou Mu might be the eldest prince. Even if it hasn’t been confirmed yet, everyone guesses that it didn’t go away.

  So all the officials were wondering which one to go to for the wedding banquet.

   What’s interesting is that the invitation from Prince Qin’s Mansion and Zhou Mu’s invitation were issued on the same day.

  The officials who received the invitation were both happy and worried. Being able to receive the invitation meant that they still had some weight in the court, but it also became a problem which one to go to for a wedding banquet on the day when the dragon raised its head.

  Following that, someone asked Marquis Wan Qing about the news, asking if the Zhou Mansion was big enough to invite so many people to a wedding banquet, and whether it could accommodate so many guests.

  Wan Qinghou knew that the next door was not that big, just like an ordinary house, so Zhou Mu lived next door so that he could keep in touch with Zhou Mu often.

  Emperor Cheng De also greeted him, Zhou Mu will soon move to Yong’an Street.

  Everyone in the capital knows that the most magnificent mansions in the capital are all on Yongan Street, but basically all of them are inhabited. Only the former Prince An’s Mansion is still vacant.

   If there is no accident, that mansion will become Zhou Mu’s new mansion.

   “Master Zhou’s house is not big, but Lord Zhou may move.” Wan Qinghou then added: “Don’t say it was the Marquis who said it.”

   He hurried away after speaking.

   Only then did someone realize that Wan Qinghou was the biggest winner.

  Liu Chaoyan married His Royal Highness King Qin, and Gu Xiyan married Zhou Mu. Didn’t the two girls of the Liu family marry the prince?

  Although these two girls from the Liu family have been rife with rumors recently, they will marry the prince.

   What kind of luck is this, that a family can have two princesses?

   “Why don’t we see which house Wan Qinghou will go to for a wedding, and which one should we go to for a wedding?” One person came up with an idea.

  Everyone thinks this is a good idea.

  Another person answered: “Your Majesty is better than looking at Marquis Wan Qing. When the time comes, which one will your Majesty go to for a wedding banquet, let’s go with it!”

  The people who were pricking up their ears to eavesdrop immediately slapped their thighs, yes, what could be wrong with following His Majesty?

   Your Majesty’s attitude represents everything, as long as you pay attention to which restaurant your Majesty went to for a wedding, that is the real weather vane.

   Zhou Mu hadn’t gone far yet, and with his good hearing, after hearing these people’s conversations, he felt that he had a foresight, so he asked his father where to have a wedding reception early in the morning.

  Looking at the attitude of these fools, you can tell that if he is not favored, he will only be compared by Zhou Xing.

   If so, he himself is fine, but he will never let Xi Yan suffer wronged with him.

  The closer the day when the dragon raised its head approached, the more eerie the atmosphere in the court became.

   Not only Zhou Mu noticed it, Zhou Xing also noticed something wrong.

  After he and Liu Chaoyan’s wedding invitation was sent out, except for a few of his loyal supporters in the DPRK and China, other officials in the DPRK and China did not make it clear.

  Looking at the situation, it is clear that everyone is looking at the direction of the wind.

  He also knew that many officials in the DPRK already knew Zhou Mu’s true identity, and these people must be hesitating which one to go to for a wedding reception.

The saddest thing is that a large number of courtiers who supported him started to keep a distance from him after knowing that Zhou Mu was not dead. This was clearly because they knew that Zhou Mu was the heir apparent, and the chances of Zhou Mu becoming the crown prince in the future were greater than him. , such a change occurred.

  He had a lot of depression in his heart, had nowhere to vent, and was not in a hurry to leave the palace, so he simply went to Ganquan Palace.
