Chapter 188 Father and Son Showdown
After hearing what Gu Lingyue said, Long Shang finally compromised.
After Long Shang left, Gu Lingyue and Qiu Tong walked into the house.
Gu Chenxuan was coughing non-stop while covering his hand with a handkerchief. Gu Lingyue asked Qiu Tong to pour him a glass of warm water, and she began to prepare medicine for him.
After Gu Chenxuan drank the medicine, Gu Lingyue started to give him an IV.
And in the imperial study of the palace.
Emperor Tianqi looked at Long Shang who was sitting there and said helplessly: "They are just a few women, why do you have to drive them away? Why don't you just find a place for them to stay?"
"No, if they stay in the mansion, it will affect Yue'er's mood." Long Shang said firmly.
Emperor Tianqi was so angry that he laughed, "Then driving people away for no reason won't affect my mood?
Do you know that Taifu Dong and the Shen family have come to the palace to complain? What do you want me to do?"
"You can bring them into the palace." Long Shang said coldly.
"Asshole!" Emperor Tianqi blew his beard and glared angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
If he finally brings the woman given to his son into the palace, he will be laughed at by the whole world.
Long Shang said indifferently, "Then who asked you to arrange the marriage? Did you ask for my opinion?"
Emperor Tianqi was extremely angry. His son was a bastard who refused to listen to any advice or threats.
Emperor Tianqi took a deep breath, suppressed his anger and said, "I am your father. Do I need to ask for your approval for anything I do?"
Long Shang ignored the Emperor Tianqi's outburst and said impatiently, "If you are alright, I will go back. Yue'er is still waiting for me in the mansion."
When Emperor Tianqi heard Long Shang mention Gu Lingyue, he thought, since it doesn't work with this brat, he will talk to Princess Jing about it.
Long Shang saw what Emperor Tianqi was planning. He snorted coldly and said, "Yue'er is pregnant. If you dare to force her, I don't mind letting you add a few more beauties to your harem. You already have many women anyway, so adding a few more wouldn't be a big deal, right?"
When Emperor Tianqi heard Long Shang say that Gu Lingyue was pregnant, he felt very complicated.
However, thinking of the nonsense that Long Shang had just said, he was so angry that he wanted to whip him a few times. He really owed him something for daring to threaten him.
Gao Mingxin, who was serving on the side, also became worried.
Among all the emperor's sons, only Prince Jing dared to speak to the emperor in such a way.
"I won't chat with you anymore."
After Long Shang finished speaking, he stood up and walked out the door. Emperor Tianqi shouted angrily, "Stop!"
Long Shang stopped, turned around and looked at Emperor Tianqi expressionlessly.
Emperor Tianqi sighed and said, "Bring her to the palace tomorrow to have dinner with me."
When Long Shang was about to say something, Emperor Tianqi said, "Don't worry, I won't force her."
Long Shang then put away the cold expression on his face and said indifferently: "Okay."
After Long Shang left, Emperor Tianqi said to Gao Ming with a look of dismay, "How could I have given birth to such an unfilial son who only thinks about his wife?"
Gao Ming lowered his head and dared not say a word.
How could a servant like him interfere in royal affairs?
……
Facing the wind in the middle.
Yang Yanru had already packed her things and was waiting for Long Shang to send someone to drive her away, but no matter how long she waited, no one came.
Yang Yanru was a little discouraged, but Dong'er was relieved.
Fortunately, Prince Jing did not send anyone to drive her young lady away.
Thinking of this, Dongyue wondered in her heart, does this mean that Prince Jing also likes her young lady?
At this time, Long Shang was stopped as soon as he left the palace.
"I'm waiting here on purpose." Long Shang said affirmatively as he looked at Chang Jinnuo entering his carriage.
"I was going to your house, but I saw your carriage at the palace gate, so I waited for you here."
Chang Jinnuo sat down opposite Long Shang and asked, "Grand Tutor Dong and that old man from the Shen family have come to the palace to complain about you, right?"
Long Shang looked disdainful and knocked on the carriage wall to signal the driver to move forward. "So what? Did you come all the way here just to tell me this?"
"I'm not that free." Chang Jinnuo looked resentful.
However, Long Shang ignored him and opened the partition of the carriage, took out a teacup from it, picked up the teapot, poured a cup of tea and handed it to him, then put the teapot back in its place.
Chang Jinnuo took it and drank it in one gulp, then handed the cup to Long Shang and said bluntly: "Let Yanru stay in your house for a while, and then release her after my mother nods her approval."
Others just want to marry a wife who is of equal social status, but for him, at first it was Yanru's mother who despised him for being uneducated, and now it is his mother who despises Yanru for getting married.
Considering how much the man opposite him dotes on his princess, it would be strange for him to fall in love with another woman.
As expected, he drove the two women out of the palace as soon as he came back. Although he didn't know why Yanru was not driven out, he thought it would be a good idea to come over and say hello.
Otherwise, with Yanru's mother's temper, if she was also driven away, she would definitely be scolded by her mother.
Long Shang raised an eyebrow, "Do you think you can convince your mother to agree?"
As he said that, he took the teacup handed to him by Chang Jinnuo, put it into the partition and closed it again.
Chang Jinnuo thought for a moment and said seriously, "Unless she doesn't want to have a grandson, she has to agree."
Hearing him say this, Long Shang did not pour cold water on him and agreed to his request. However, he thought to himself, isn’t it easy for him to have a child with someone else? Everything can be solved with a packet of medicine.
Of course, if he can withstand the effects of the medicine, that would be a different story.
"Okay, let Miss Yang stay in the palace first. Yue'er is pregnant now, so let her accompany Yue'er." When saying this, Long Shang had a smug look on his face, and Chang Jinnuo was heartbroken.
He gritted his teeth and said, "Don't worry, I will get married soon and have a son soon. If the princess gives birth to a daughter, let my son marry your daughter."
After he finished speaking, Chang Jinnuo actually laughed. He thought this was a good idea, but Long Shang said with a look of disgust: "Let's talk about it after you marry Miss Yang."
Chang Jinnuo suddenly wilted like an eggplant hit by frost. He really didn't know when his mother would agree.
He didn't want to talk about these troubles anymore, so he talked about the current situation in the capital.
"Many places have suffered from famine this year, and the treasury is empty. The emperor had originally hoped to use the negotiations with Western Shu to exchange money for relief for the people, but he didn't expect the Western Shu emperor to suddenly abdicate and pass the throne to the fifth prince. This plan of exchanging Kou Dan for money is completely useless..."
Long Shang just listened quietly without saying anything.
After Chang Jinnuo finished what he wanted to say, he stopped the carriage and Long Shang ordered, "Let's go."
The carriage started again, but Long Shang kept frowning and thinking about what Chang Jinnuo had just said.
