Chapter 370 I Only Have Nanyan as My Wife
The emperor looked at Lu Huaiyang, speaking earnestly and with a worried look on his face, and said, "But if we marry into the Prime Minister's family, that would be different."
"Most of the important officials in the court will support you, and those powerful families will also support you."
"Besides... the Prime Minister's daughter-in-law is on good terms with your eldest sister, and their faction will support you."
"This way, no matter where you are or which faction you belong to, you can handle it all and everything will be safe and sound."
"So... can you understand?"
Seeing the emperor's expression, Lu Huaiyang's expression became more and more determined. He said, "Father, if I want to inherit your position, I must convince everyone, not rely on marriage. If I do that...even if I ascend the throne in the future, I will be controlled by others!"
"I hope to be able to inherit your position, not rely on these things."
Lu Huaiyang looked at the emperor with an extremely serious look and a sincere tone.
The emperor looked at him for a long moment before he sighed and said, "My seventh son has grown up. You're right, but... Father wants you to rest easy. Father wants you to avoid being dragged down by worldly matters."
"Have you ever thought about what it would mean to you if you only had one princess consort and your maternal relatives grew stronger in the future?"
"Are you sure you can avoid being disturbed and implicated?"
"When that time comes, you will regret it..."
Lu Huaiyang frowned and looked at the emperor. Just as he was about to refuse, the emperor spoke again.
"Huaiyang, you feel sorry for Nanyan, but your father feels sorry for you!"
The emperor spoke earnestly, and when he looked at Lu Huaiyang, his tone was particularly solemn: "You are afraid that Nan Yan will be disappointed, you are afraid that Nan Yan will be wronged, so why don't you treat her well? But father is afraid that one day I will be gone, and you can't do it alone!"
"Can you understand your father's feelings?"
The emperor looked at Lu Huaiyang, who looked like an old father who was completely worried and anxious about his son.
Lu Huaiyang wanted to refuse outright.
But I dare not say anything absolute.
Lu Huaiyang knelt on the ground: "I am an unfilial son!"
He lowered his head and straightened his back.
He said nothing, not daring to say anything that would hurt the emperor's feelings.
However, his attitude showed his firm decision!
The emperor looked at Lu Huaiyang, and the look in his eyes suddenly became dim: "You don't want to, right?"
"I have already been unfilial, and I cannot let Nan Yan down again."
Lu Huaiyang kowtowed heavily: "Father, she has endured so many hardships with me for so many years. She is innocent and can't stand the scheming and scheming of women. I don't want to let her down!"
The emperor looked at Lu Huaiyang's resolute face and suddenly asked, "Have you made up your mind?"
Lu Huaiyang kowtowed heavily on the floor: "I've made up my mind."
"Even if I don't give you this position in the end, are you willing to stay with that woman?" The emperor looked at Lu Huaiyang, his tone becoming stern.
Lu Huaiyang raised his head and gave the emperor a deep look: "If I need to marry a concubine to be qualified to sit on my father's throne, then I will not be able to inherit the throne!"
"you……"
The emperor looked at him, staggered a step in anger, and almost fell.
Eunuch Su, who was listening trembling with fear at the side, wanted to hide himself, but now he hurried forward to support the emperor.
Eunuch Su was speechless. He had wanted to sneak out, but he didn't find the opportunity...
The emperor pointed at Lu Huaiyang with trembling hands and said, "You...you kneel outside the palace. For the sake of a woman, you need to wake up!"
Lu Huaiyang didn't say anything. He kowtowed heavily to the emperor, went to the door, flicked the hem of his robe, and knelt down.
His back was straight, and he looked inexplicably excited.
He didn't even wear a cloak, just kneeling there straight, not afraid of the wind and snow.
"Look at that rebellious son..."
The emperor fell on the dragon throne, pointing at Lu Huaiyang outside, his hands shaking with anger.
Eunuch Su hurriedly supported the emperor, calmed him down, and whispered to him, "Your Majesty, don't be angry. Your Highness is loyal and righteous. Only Your Majesty would do that..."
The emperor snorted coldly and shook off Eunuch Su. "Like me? I'm not as foolish as him, obsessed with women."
Eunuch Su said with a stiff upper lip: "Your Majesty, His Highness is not obsessed with women. The virtuous princess is virtuous, and there are also the Xie and Xue families. This is the only way to feel at ease."
"Besides, the virtuous princess is virtuous. She found these potatoes and came up with the idea for water storage... She even donated her own potatoes for use as seeds..."
"Which woman could do this? Your Majesty, this is a sign of your great fortune. Otherwise, how could you have such a wonderful daughter-in-law..."
The emperor snorted coldly, "Don't speak for them. Don't think I don't know. Did she buy you off with those jars of hand cream?"
Eunuch Su immediately pretended to be startled and knelt down with a plop: "Your Majesty, please understand. I dare not do that! I only care about Your Majesty. I don't want to see Your Majesty get angry..."
"Of course, the virtuous princess sent me some gifts, and I am very grateful. But I am loyal to Your Majesty, and I don't want to see Your Majesty angry!"
The emperor snorted coldly: "Don't be so sweet and act like a good boy. I don't know what you are thinking."
Eunuch Su hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, heaven and earth can bear witness to my loyalty!"
The emperor frowned, glanced at Eunuch Su, and said, "Go and close the palace door. I want to see how long he can hold out!"
"Yes, Your Majesty." Eunuch Su didn't dare to say more and hurriedly got up to close the shop door.
When Eunuch Su closed the door, the emperor said, "Leave him alone and help me sleep peacefully."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Eunuch Su immediately put on water and waited for the emperor to bathe.
The wind and snow outside were getting stronger, and large flakes of snow were falling.
Eunuch Su pretended to close the window, and when the emperor rose from the bathtub, he muttered, "The wind and snow are so strong tonight, and the wise prince is injured and not wearing a cloak. I wonder if he will catch a cold."
"The wound from the previous cut, I saw it, has just opened up again after running around for the past two days..."
"If you say anything good to that rebellious son again, you will kneel outside with him."
Eunuch Su immediately shut up and pretended to slap his lips: "This slave deserves to die, this slave deserves to die, this slave won't say anything more..."
Then he closed the window.
The emperor changed into his pajamas and lay down on the dragon couch.
But I tossed and turned, sighed, and couldn't fall asleep.
The wind and snow are howling outside, and it's cold just to hear it.
The emperor lay on the dragon bed, too upset to sleep...
Many times, when the emperor heard the noise outside, he wanted to stand up and see if Lu Huaiyang had stood up to admit his mistake and bow to him.
The emperor has made up his mind that if Lu Huaiyang comes to admit his mistake, he will give him another chance!
But until daybreak outside, there was still no sound.
"Your Majesty, this morning..."
