Of course Nangong Zhao knew about Xiao Jiujiu in their hearts.
But as a king, should he let his ministers decide how many women he marries?
So he reprimanded the ministers: "There are three thousand people in the harem, and you are saying that the emperor is promiscuous and ignores the government affairs.
"Now, I have decided to only favor Queen Ye from now on. You also say that with such honor and favor, Queen Ye will lose her fortune...
"They also say that the descendants of orphans will not prosper.
"Gu is young, and Queen Ye is also eighteen years old, so it won't be a problem to have ten or eight children.
"What you said is all alarmist and makes no sense.
"In short, marrying a wife and raising a family is a matter of one's own family.
"Gu doesn't interfere with how many concubines your family has, so you don't interfere with Gu only doting on one person.
"Gu doesn't require you to be like Gu and only be devoted to one woman.
"But you can't ask Gu to be like you, marrying many women and coming back to be jealous."
Nangong Zhao looked at everyone coldly.
He has made up his mind and no one can change his mind.
The ministers had no choice but to kneel down and shout: "Your Majesty is wise."
**********
Nangong Zhao gently lifted Ye Jingjing's red headband and saw that she was very beautiful with a peach blossom face and eyes like stars.
He couldn't help but want to kiss her...
"Xiao Qing, I've been waiting for a long time. Sorry, I was grabbed by the ministers just now."
"No. I'll just wait for a while. However, I'm not very familiar with this ancient wedding ceremony. What should we do next?"
Ye Jingjing is looking forward to it.
Although she knew that the ancient wedding etiquette was very complicated, she did not feel impatient at all when completing it with her beloved.
Nangong Zhao, on the other hand, was a little anxious...
"Well, I don't know what the etiquette is.
"I sent all the nuns away.
“The flowers and candles in the bridal chamber and the spring night are worth a thousand pieces of gold... Let’s not waste time on those etiquettes.
"The most important thing is..." He sat down next to her body, held her in his arms, and gently rubbed her... "Give me a baby."
