Chapter 1416: Prince Li’s Extra: The Best of Both Worlds
Xu Jin got the news from Concubine Xu and hurried into the palace. He looked at his charming daughter with excitement and joy in his heart.
He had already known that the emperor would stay in his daughter's palace again. What made him even more excited was that today, his daughter finally took the first step to cooperate with him.
"Father, the emperor may come over tonight, so let's make it short." Concubine Xu looked at the dark sky and said anxiously.
She really didn't expect that her calm father would be so impatient to enter the palace. She was more worried that her father entered the palace secretly. If he was bumped by the emperor...
After last night's long lingering, she was looking forward to tonight.
Looking at the lingering joy in his daughter's eyes, Xu Jin, who was full of joy, felt a little annoyed in his heart. He thought his daughter had figured it out, but he didn't expect that she was still obsessed with the emperor.
What he feared most now was that his daughter still had feelings for the emperor. If that happened, his plan...
Xu Jin felt that he should think of a way to make Concubine Xu give up on the emperor completely. Only when you give up can you be used by the family, and their Xu family will have the opportunity to move to the next level.
"The emperor's heart is on the queen, you don't have to be too emotional, otherwise you will be hurt." Xu Jin's words were full of worry, just a father worrying about his daughter.
"Father, the emperor is very good to me now, you don't have to worry." Thinking of last night, Concubine Xu's words were full of confidence. If the emperor didn't like her very much, how could he have been entangled with her all night.
"I sent you a letter about the marriage between General Anguo's Mansion and Princess Jinxiu. Father thinks that we should promote this matter or..."
"What do you think?" Xu Jin did not answer, but asked back.
"Father, this Princess Jinxiu is a troublemaker. If she really marries into the Zhen family, the Zhen family may have no peace. Now Princess Jinxiu is also dissatisfied with the Zhen family's neglect. I think we can take this opportunity to ruin this marriage."
Concubine Xu thought about the relationship between the Xu family and the Zhen family. The two families are of the same blood. Naturally, she didn't want a troublemaker to marry into the Zhen family.
Xu Jin didn't say anything, just smiled faintly at his daughter, his vicissitudes of life eyes full of scrutiny.
Concubine Xu's concerns, there is one more thing that she didn't say, destroying this marriage, it would save a lot of entanglement in the future, the Zhen family, the Xu family and the royal family, the relationship is the relationship between the monarch and the minister, there is no need to tear because of family ties and blood.
Concubine Xu is indeed for the good of the Zhen family, and for the good of the royal family. After all, she still regards herself as Concubine Xu.
Concubine Xu was flustered by her father's look, she lowered her head and stopped talking, but she knew in her heart that her father had already understood her thoughts.
"Father, I have my own thoughts, but it is also for the good of our family and the Zhen family."
Concubine Xu was silent for a long time before she looked up and said righteously.
Xu Jin looked at Concubine Xu, and his smile deepened. He nodded and said, "This is indeed a choice that has the best of both worlds."
"With your words, I feel relieved. If the emperor comes over at night, I will tell him what you mean, and I..."
After getting her father's affirmation, Concubine Xu was still a little excited. She smiled and spoke, and her words were full of impatience.
"When the emperor comes, you have to persuade him to continue this marriage."
Xu Jin's words caught Concubine Xu off guard. The joy and excitement just now disappeared because of his words.
"But, you just..."
"Your method just now has the best of both worlds, but what I asked you to do is of great benefit to my Xu family."
Xu Jin still spoke with a smile, but Concubine Xu looked at him and felt for the first time that her father's words were full of sharpness.
She didn't know how to persuade her father, so she could only look at him, watching his face with a smile and his eyes full of plans.
