Chapter 906: Crossdressing: Crown highness’ slight pampering (Part 38)
After Deng Ren saw this, he kept calling out he was wronged, but he was taken away by the guards.
Although he wanted to be smart and help the eighth prince say some good things.
The emperor wasn’t a fool. The court and the harem both had to be balanced.
But in his eyes, he had never wavered on who his successor was.
“Since this matter has been opened, then this one will discuss with the ministers the matter of the crown prince’s wedding.” The emperor stroked his beard and said, “According to the list from the empress, there are currently five women who are a match for the crown prince.”
As soon as his voice fell, he looked at eunuch Liu beside him and eunuch Liu handed out the tags to the ministers.
When the conversation started, one of the second rank ministers came forward to say, “This minister believes that mister Du’s daughter Du Wan Er is a perfect match for the crown prince.”
“Mister Luo’s daughter Luo Jin Yan is the number one beauty in the capital. If she becomes the crown princess, she would be a skilled and beautiful woman!” Another minister saw Luo Jin Yan’s name and also stood out.
At this time, Du Xian glared at Luo Shu with eyes filled with hostility.
Everyone knew that the emperor loved the crown prince, so your road would be open if you could get your daughter as the crown princess.
“Un…..” The emperor gave a nod, “The empress also thinks that these two are the most suitable, but this one thinks that minister Luo’s daughter is more suited. The crown prince is rather anxious, a scholarly family like the Luo Family can complement him. What do you all think?”
“Yes, yes, yes……” The emperor had spoken, so everyone could only agree.
But Du Xian’s expression was a bit ugly since he wanted to use this to climb up.
But if the emperor wouldn’t give him this chance, he couldn’t say a single thing.
“This minister has three daughters……” Luo Shu came out and cupped his hands, “The eldest daughter Luo Jin Yan who is also the number one beauty in the capital has been in poor health recently. The third daughter is from a concubine and the second daughter……”
“Then it’ll be the second daughter.” The emperor’s expression was a bit dissatisfied as he cleared his throat, “This matter will be handed to the empress to take care of, so minister Luo shouldn’t let down this one.”
Luo Shu was a smart person and he didn’t dare say anything else after seeing the emperor’s dissatisfied expression. He just bowed and said, “Thank you, emperor.”
Actually the play of weakening power in the imperial court, any insider could see it.
The emperor was weakening the eighth prince and concubine Lian’s influence, this crown princess was just a starting point.
Whether it was the Luo Family’s daughter or not, it couldn’t be Du Wan Er.
Everyone knew that the Du Family was close to concubine Lian, so he suppressed Du Xian today. The eighth prince naturally understood this, so if he wanted to become the crown prince…..it would be very hard.
If the emperor didn’t want to give it to him, it would all be useless no matter how he and concubine Lian conspired.

At the Luo Manor.
“Is big sister feeling better today?” Luo Qing Chen gave her a bowl of millet congee while revealing a faint smile.
“Un.” She nodded as her eyes filled with joy.
“Ai, why are you so happy?” She said, “Did your male god confess to you?”
“You……” Luo Jin Yan was stunned as she looked at her in surprise, “It can’t be that you……”
She was still curious, why did Qian Ye An suddenly mention her marriage to her father? Could it be that this silly girl said something……
