Chapter 1125

Why Wouldnt I Favour My Own Son?

Imperial Concubine Yun was a little stunned, there was nothing wrong with Xuan Tianyi kowtowing to her, but how did he say his previous sentence? Someone who can make a decision has finally arrived? What decision? Make a decision for who?

Imperial Concubine Yun gathered herself, straightened her posture and looked at Xuan Tianyi, half a beat later, she finally spoke: This One cannot make a decision for Ji An Prefecture.

Xuan Tianyi shook his head, I am not asking Imperial Concubine Mother to make a decision for Ji An Prefecture, it is to make a decision for This Son.

Make a decision for you? Imperial Concubine Yun did not understand, What decision do you have which This One needs to make? If something really is the matter, you should go back to the capital and see His Majesty, looking for This One is useless.

Its useful! How can it be useless? Xuan Tianyi said seriously: Father Emperor told us when we were young, in every case, for all the concubines and noble ladies whom we can address as Imperial Concubine Mother, they are our elders, and can make decisions for us brothers. So for This Son to meet Imperial Concubine Mother today, it is no different from meeting my own birth mother. This Son has a matter which I would like Imperial Concubine Mother to decide, I hope that Imperial Concubine Mother can show sympathy for This Son.

This spew of cottoning up to her caused Imperial Concubine Yun to feel stunned, but since he said this much and she was his elder, it was not good to rebuke Old Fourths words and make him lose face, so she only shook her head helplessly, saying: Then speak, what is your business? After saying this, she still did not want to admit defeat and added on: Actually, even though I am the elder, This One does not remember the appearance of you brothers, are you really Old Fourth?

Xuan Tianyi nodded, The genuine article! Ninth Brother can prove it.

Xuan Tianming also nodded helplessly, Yes. That was when Imperial Concubine Yun gave up.

Then they heard Xuan Tianyi speak as he turned around and pointed at the boxes which were carried into the manor and were currently in the courtyard outside the hall: Today, This Son came to deliver dowry to Madam An, with the intentions to request a marriage to Madam Ans daughter Feng Xiangrong. Imperial Concubine Mother probably heard before, in the past, under the orders of Father Emperor, This Son requested Feng familys Third Miss to be my master, learning embroidery from her. With this, I learned for a few years! During these few years, the feelings This Son has for Feng familys Third Miss had already surpassed that of the feelings between master and disciple, feelings of admiration and adoration grew in my heart. Therefore, I wish to welcome Feng Third Miss into Ping Palace, as my first wife. But with only This Son coming to deliver the dowry, it really is too shabby, there are no parents to front this. Imperial Concubine Mother Yun also knows, This Sons birth mother is still confined to the cold palace! It is even less probable for Father Emperor to come over, so This Son had been troubled the whole time, the dowry has already been prepared long ago, but I was embarrassed to carry them over. Today, I heard that Imperial Concubine Mother Yun has arrived, This Son was happy! Finally an elder has come to make a decision for This Son, so This Son immediately carried the dowry and came, I hope that Imperial Concubine Mother Yun can put in some good words for This Son in front of Madam An, and ask Madam An to approve of the marriage between This Son and Feng Third Miss!

Xuan Tianyis words were filled with sincerity, and after he was done speaking, he even kowtowed to Imperial Concubine Yun three times to express his determination. In a daze, Imperial Concubine Yun looked at this prince who was kneeling in front of her, the embers of anger in her heart rising up as she seethed! Seeing that this small fire was going to burn into a huge fire, about to burn to her throat and eyes, Feng Yuheng quickly used her arm to prod Xuan Tianming, saying softly: Quickly! Think of a way to put out the fire! Imperial Concubine Mother is about to lose her temper, if this becomes a real quarrel, it will not look good.

Xuan Tianming also knew it would not look good, Imperial Concubine Yuns reputation was still important, she could have a strong side to her, but it should not be shown in front of these people. Therefore, he spoke quickly: This is such a coincidence, Fourth Brother also wishes to propose a marriage to This Princes younger sister-in-law! But Imperial Concubine Mother came to Ji An Prefecture today to propose a marriage to Madam An and Feng Third Miss for Seventh Brother.

Ah! Xuan Tianyi feigned surprise, Such a coincidence? Seventh Brother has also set his sights from Feng Third Miss? He acted like he did not know, putting up a complete act, Then this shows even more that Feng Third Miss is a good girl, it seems like my judgement is not wrong. Imperial Concubine Mother Yun! He kicked the ball back to Imperial Concubine Yun, Even though I am not your birth son, and was not raised by your side since young, but This Son still thinks that Imperial Concubine Mother Yub would not just favour your own child on this matter, right? This Son asks Imperial Concubine Mother Yun to make a decision!

Xuan Tianyi was very sly, speaking like this, if Imperial Concubine Yun continued to insist on Xuan Tianhuas marriage matters, that meant she was favouring her own son. If rumours like this spread, it would not sound nice at all.

But who was Imperial Concubine Yun? Would she still care about what others say? Other than the obvious fact that she stayed alone in Winter Moon Palace in the imperial palace and did not meet the Emperor, she even caused the Emperor to not even enter the harm, causing the descendants of the Xuan name to be cut off after Xuan Tianming, what kind of ugly words have she not heard before? Xuan Tianyis move did not cause much impact.

Seeing Imperial Concubine Yun shrug, she threw out a sentence: If I do not favour my children, then what kind of mother am I? After saying this, she even asked Xuan Tianyi in a confused tone: Could it be that your birth mother had never favoured you over others?

Xuan Tianyi had never interacted with Imperial Concubine Yun and had thought the other party was only a normal Madam, under this main principle, he could still manage her a little. But he did not expect that Imperial Concubine Yun would be this unpredictable! The words she said were off tangent. He was a little stunned, but he still replied: This Sons birth mother really never favoured This Son before.

Oh. Imperial Concubine Yun nodded, No wonder she entered the cold palace. She spoke as if it was a natural thing.

It was Xuan Tianyis turn to be stunned, what was this situation? Old Seventh sent him a letter and only asked him to try his best on this side to delay Old Ninths return to the capital, and without any other options, he thought of this method, but Old Seventh did not tell him Imperial Concubine Yun had such a personality!

Xuan Tianming also spoke up from where he was standing at the side: Fourth Brother, you are the older brother, how can you snatch a woman from your younger brother?

Ka!

Xuan Tianyi wanted to flip a table! What kind of people were in this family? The woman had not made her decision! What snatching from his younger brother? Then he would just snatch her then!

Madam An! Seeing that no progress was being made with Imperial Concubine Yun, Xuan Tianyi shifted his gaze to An Shi, You should say something! Xiangrong is your daughter after all.

Feng Xiangrong did not want to entertain him anymore, Your Highness the Fourth Prince, can you stop with your nonsense? I will not marry you.

Xuan Tianyi shook his head, The important matter of marriage was always particular on the opinions of the parents and the matchmaker, its not as simple as marrying who you say you want to marry.

But His Majesty said so before, my marriage can be decided on my own. Xiangrong replied sharply and fiercely, cutting Xuan Tianyi off.

The scene was getting messy, An Shi took this chance to stand up, bowing to Imperial Concubine Yun and saying: Marriage of our children is a huge matter, can Your Highness Imperial Concubine Yun allow This Commoner Madam a few days to think about it?

Imperial Concubine Yun was a little unhappy, but she still nodded, This should be done, In-law should go back and think about it properly, and listen to Third Girls opinion as well. After saying this, she did not forget to support what Xiangrong just said: Third Girl is correct, His Majesty did say in the past that her marriage should not be decided by the family, therefore, In-law should listen to Third Girls heartfelt words more, listen with regards to who she wants to marry.

Without any other choice, An Shi promised to do so, Feng Yuheng quickly managed the arrangements for the courtyard where Imperial Concubine Yun would be staying and took the chance to chase away Xuan Tianyi who came to cause trouble.

But Xuan Tianyi stubbornly did not want to remove that dowry. Unable to do anything about it, Feng Yuheng could only keep them there for the time being.

Originally, Xuan Tianming thought that since Imperial Concubine Yun came, An Shi had to agree even if she did not as the status was suppressing her. Once An Shi nodded, his task here was considered done, leaving Feng Yuheng behind in Ji An Prefecture to accompany Imperial Concubine Yun, he could quickly spur the horses towards the eastern border to chase after Xuan Tianhua.

But unexpectedly, with Old Fourth coming here and interfering, the situation had changed into something which was not considered complex but was not something which could be settled in a day. This made Xuan Tianming very anxious, because dragging it out by one day meant that his journey would be pushed back by one day, the eastern side could change any time, he really could not stop worrying about it.

Imperial Concubine Yun stayed at Princess Ji Ans manor, An Shi also stayed there. To close the distance between her and An Shi and add points for Xuan Tianhua, Imperial Concubine Yun did not flaunt her status at all, even changing her clothes to a very normal style, only resting for a while before she looked for An Shi to stroll and chat to deepen their relationship.

And to An Shi, the impression Imperial Concubine Yun gave her was rather good, with a mother-in-law like her, this caused An Shis heart who did not want Xiangrong to marry to Chun Palace to waver.

Imperial Concubine Yun was very smart and naturally noticed An Shis wavering, therefore striking while the iron was hot, she told An Shi: In-law! Actually it is good for Xiangrong to marry our Hua-er! Lets put aside the matter of status first and talk about both their lives from now on! I will say something which you might not like to listen to, please do not take it to heart, when you were at Feng family in the past, there were elders above you and children below, whether it was the concubines or the main mother, they had to curry favour with Feng familys old granny. With a mother-in-law suppressing from above, who is able to live their life freely? Even the position of wife in the manor was unstable! Even having to greet her everyday at night and in the morning, it is just so troublesome thinking about it. But Xiangrong is different! When she enters Chun Palace, she will truly be the mistress there, her father-in-law and mother-in-law are in the imperial palace and people take care of them, so she would not need to wait on them every day. In Chun Palace, her word is final and no one can bully her. Oh right, I am living at Chun Palace now, but do not marry, once the two of them marry, I will quickly move back to the imperial palace and will definitely not cause any trouble for the children.

When Imperial Concubine Yun said these words, following Feng Yuhengs instructions, Wang Chuan just happened to serve the pair some snacks which Feng Yuheng took out from her space. Wang Chuan heard what Imperial Concubine Yun said and after returning, she repeated this to Feng Yuheng. After Feng Yuheng heard it, she said to the husband beside her with some emotion: Look, this is a mothers love. Imperial Concubine Mother is someone who doesnt want to return to the imperial palace, but for her children to live well, she was willing to suffer a loss.

Imperial Concubine Yuns motherly love did not only move Feng Yuheng, it also moved An Shi, she finally submitted to fate and said: Forget it, if the child wants to marry, then let her marry!

An Shi nodded and agreed to Imperial Concubine Yuns proposal, the two parties took out the eight characters records, and someone immediately took the records to match the eight characters. This matter was organised by Qian Fengshou, he was very enthusiastic about this matter, handing the records straight to the most famous Fengshui master in the industry of Cloud Sky Manor, asking him to match them properly, match a satisfactory eight character predestined marriage so it was good for him to bring it back and report to Imperial Concubine Yun.

That Fengshui master was also very responsible, facing these two records, he calculated them many times, but the expression on his face became heavier and heavier the more he calculated. Finally, Qian Fengshou could not hold it in anymore, asking: Master, what is it? This marriage is a match made in heaven?

But he saw that Master shake his head continuously: What match made in heaven? This is simply a destined disaster!
