If not abolished

Chapter 247: Kneeling in the Rain

"Thank you, Your Highness." Wu Yingyue could no longer hide her joyful expression.

"Your Highness, I'm afraid you need to think twice about this matter. The appointment of a concubine must be approved by the Crown Princess." Wu Cheng saw that the situation was about to get out of control, so he immediately interrupted when there was a gap.

He knew that the two of them were angry and had blurted out everything. Once they calmed down, they would regret it, and then they, the servants, would be the ones to suffer. He had no choice but to take the risk and speak out.

Zhu Zhanji immediately looked over and said, "Mother has always listened to me. I'll go talk to her right now, and she will definitely agree." As he said that, he pulled Wu Yingyue up and prepared to go to Rouyi Palace.

"See, you kept denying it before, but now you really think so." After saying this, Hu Shanxiang turned around and left.

Zhu Zhanji looked at her leaving figure and pondered for a long time. Wu Yingyue said: "Your Highness, shall we?"

"Let's go." Zhu Zhanji withdrew his gaze, and the two of them came to Rouyi Hall together.

Zhu Zhanji was really impulsive just now and said those words. Now he was standing in front of the door of Rouyi Palace and suddenly felt a little uneasy.

Wu Cheng has watched Zhu Zhanji grow up since he was a child, so how could he not know his current predicament? He sighed in his heart: Your Highness, what I mean is, we gave you a way out just now, but you still went ahead with it. Now you want to back down at the last minute, I'm afraid it's a little too late.

There's no point in standing here all the time, it will only make you a laughing stock to people passing by.

Zhu Zhanji thought about it and walked in.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince, I will go and report to the Queen right away." When the palace servant saw him come in, she hurried inside to pass on the message.

When the Crown Princess heard that Zhu Zhanji was coming, she was also surprised. He was just delivering some food. He didn't need to come to express gratitude, right?

"Did Your Highness say what you are here for?" asked the Crown Princess.

The maid shook her head and said, "To answer your majesty, your highness did not say anything, but he came here with the new maid."

"They came here together, this..." The Crown Princess was getting more and more confused, "Forget it, we'll know once they come in, then please come in."

The Crown Princess sat upright, waiting for them to come in.

"Greetings to mother/Your servant greets the queen."

"Agui, please sit down."

"Yes." Zhu Zhanji lowered his head, still thinking about what to say.

The Crown Princess felt a little surprised when she saw him like this. It was rare to see him like this in recent years.

Seeing that he hadn't spoken for a long time, the Crown Princess could only speak first: "Agui, do you have anything to say?"

Zhu Zhanji coughed tactically a few times and said, "There is indeed something I need to discuss with mother."

"It's rare that you still have time to discuss things with me, so go ahead." The Crown Princess has always felt that her eldest son was too sensible, which made her feel little involved. Now that he still has something to discuss with her, it's great.

"That's right. Didn't you say last time that there were few people in your son's backyard? Now there is a candidate. What do you think?" Zhu Zhanji said tentatively.

The Crown Princess was surprised that someone had been chosen so quickly. "I did say so, but you are a little too fast! Who is it? Have I seen him?"

"Yes, mother has seen her too. Look, it's her." Zhu Zhanji glanced in the direction of Wu Yingyue.

"What did you say? She... Are you kidding me?" The Crown Princess asked several questions in a row, but she still didn't believe it.

"Mother, don't be so surprised. It's her. I plan to give her the position of concubine." Zhu Zhanji continued.

"Are you crazy?" The Crown Princess lost all her dignity in an instant.

"Mother, just tell me whether you agree or not?"

"You agree, you go kneel outside, you are crazy."

Zhu Zhanji went out and knelt without saying a word. As he was kneeling, it started to rain. It was really heartbreaking to see.
