C12 He Didn't Want to Believe It.

It had been a few days and Chu Jun, who had not left his residence, heard the news of the marriage. He was stunned.

It was known to everyone that the marriage was going to be held today, but because the Marquis had ordered them to keep it a secret, they did not know about it until Chu Jun was stunned.

The servant accidentally mentioned it, but he heard it. He looked at the Crown Prince in a daze. He was scared. “Crown Prince, are you okay?”

“Is what you said true?”

“Yes, Crown Prince.” He knew about the marriage between the Crown Prince and the Su family’s young lady. He could not bear to see it happen.

Chu Jun was silent for a while. “Is father in the study?”

“Yes.”

He left the servant in front of him and rushed to the study.

His eyes were cold and he was panicking. If he could not understand why Su Zijin refused, he could still convince himself, but now, he was panicking.

The imperial edict was given by the Emperor. Even the Prince Regent would not easily disobey it, let alone Su Zijin.

Bang!

Chu Jun, who did not have time to restrain his emotions, pushed the door open. The Marquis looked up and saw the ink on the paper. He put it away without changing his expression. “What is it?”

Chu Jun knew that he had lost his composure. He put away his expression and entered the study. He closed the door and looked at Chu Lin. “Father.”

"What do you want to ask?"

"Emperor, why didn't you tell me that you wanted to marry her to the Prince Regent?"

"It was a few days ago. Did you think it through? Were you willing to come out and see her?"

His gaze fell on him, but his expression didn't change.

He knew that his son liked Su Zijin, but he didn't know why Su Zijin would reject him.

"I..."

He was silent.

When the marriage was decided, Chu Lin had guessed that it was because of the Emperor. However, he felt that it wasn't right.

"Father, do you know why the Emperor suddenly decided to marry her?"

"How could anyone guess the Emperor? It wasn't a sudden decision."

He looked at Chu Junyi and paused for a moment. "It was because of this reason that he rejected you."

"Impossible. She isn't that kind of woman." He suddenly raised his head.

"Jin'er, you need to know that the current world isn't something that can be denied. Our Southern Duke's Palace is indeed inferior to the Prince Regent."

Chu Junyi's face turned slightly pale. How could he not understand such a simple logic? However, he didn't want to believe it. Besides, it wasn't important whether Su Zijin was that kind of woman.

Since ancient times, how many people could decide their own marriage? Most of them would just follow the words of "parents' orders," and the matchmaker would say it.

It was more beneficial to the family than one's own will.

The Prince Regent's Mansion was naturally more helpful to the Su Clan, as it was a place that many people could not reach.

He lowered his eyes and did not speak for a long time. After a while, he collected his thoughts and returned to his usual appearance. He was still the same Chu Zi-Zi. "Father, I'll go back to my room."

Chu Lin nodded and watched him disappear at the door. She could not help but sigh.

When he passed by, the servants in the residence secretly glanced at him. They could not tell whether he was in a good mood or not. It was as if he was different from usual, but they could not tell.

Chu Jun's eyes were dark. He ignored the others and went back to his bedroom.
