Chapter 917 Granted Marriage (2)

The three people quickly stepped forward and saluted:

My son, I pay homage to my father!

I am here to see you, Your Majesty!

"Heng'er, there's no need to be polite!" Emperor Hui'an looked at Chu Heng lovingly, his eyes wandered around Xiao Ruiyuan and Yan Junyu, and he said gently: "You guys should also get back on your feet!"

Thank you, Your Majesty! Xiao Ruiyuan and Yan Junyu stood up, took a step back and stood behind Chu Heng.

Upon learning that the three of them were preparing to have a meal, Emperor Hui'an smiled at Chu Heng and said, "Bring me a pair of bowls and chopsticks."

Yes, Father! Chu Heng responded and waved his servants to prepare.

The originally harmonious atmosphere seemed a little strange after the arrival of Emperor Hui'an. Xiao Ruiyuan and Yan Junyu were quite uncomfortable. After Emperor Hui'an moved his chopsticks, they each filled a bowl of fish soup and drank it slowly.

Emperor Hui'an was impatient with Eunuch Liang's waiting, so Chu Heng had to serve him the dishes himself, not caring about his own mouth for a moment. When he freed his hand to get a bowl of soup, only a shallow bowl of fish soup was left in the full basin. end.

Looking at the two cousins who were immersed in drinking soup but not eating other dishes, Chu Heng felt more and more that the taste of the fish soup was unusual. Knowing that there were two fresh fishes in the kitchen, I decisively asked the cook to make soup.

Soon, two large basins of fish soup were brought to the table, and the aroma of fish instantly filled the entire dining room. Even Emperor Hui'an, who was almost finished eating, noticed the difference in the fish soup and asked doubtfully: "Is this Haizhen?" ?

Haizhen refers to seafood. Although Dachu is close to the sea and there are many fishermen living on the seaside, the capital is too far from the coast. The fish transported from the sea are usually dead. In the palace, you can only eat some fresh sea delicacies in winter. In summer, you can only eat dried food, and the taste is not as good as the fresh ones.

Chu Heng only knew that the fish was sent by his two cousins. He really didnt know what kind of fish it was, so he looked at Xiao Ruiyuan and Yan Junyu.

Xiao Ruiyuan stood up, bowed his hands to Emperor Hui'an and said, "Back to the emperor, this fish is raised by the Mo family and is just an ordinary freshwater fish."

"Oh, the Mo family also raises fish? Is it the idea of the girl Hejia?" Emperor Hui'an smiled slightly and said with unclear meaning: "This girl is different from ordinary girls. She can't live in the top scholar's palace, so she wants to stay. If you farm in the village, will you have to marry a farmer in the future?"

Hearing this, Xiao Ruiyuan felt a little uneasy. The person in front of him clearly knew that he and Yan'er were in love, but he wanted to give him a noble girl as his wife on the day of the New Year's banquet. Now that he said such words, he obviously had other plans and didn't want him and Yan'er to get married. Get married.

Thinking of his cousin's repeated warnings not to let the Holy One know about his engagement to Yan'er, and urging him to marry Yan'er as soon as possible, Xiao Ruiyuan suppressed the urge to confess to Emperor Hui'an that he had been with Mo Yan and did not speak.

Yan Junyu also heard that something was wrong. Seeing the prince's cousin's face change slightly, he knew that there was something he didn't know about, and he felt a cold sweat for his good brother.

Although Yan Junyu felt jealous and resentful when his best friend won the heart of the woman he liked, he was an upright person and could not do anything to win someone's love. He also hoped that these two people who were very important to him could grow old together. If someone wanted to break up this marriage, he would be the first to disagree.

The atmosphere was a bit solemn. Chu Heng's hand under the table tightened and loosened, then loosened and tightened. A smile appeared on his face: "Isn't it true that my father doesn't know that He Jia and Han Zhang are in love? Not long ago, He Jia and Ji, I also wanted to ask my father for a favor on their behalf and grant them a marriage, but then I forgot about it in a hurry! It's better to choose a different day, why don't my father grant them a marriage today?"

Xiao Ruiyuan's eyes lit up, and without waiting for Chu Heng to wink at him, he knelt on the ground on one knee: "I beg you, Your Majesty, to grant your permission!"
