Several Rongzhu warriors returned without success, and they all knelt in front of the Rongzhu Prince Bo Yanzhu, not even daring to raise their heads.
"I am waiting for Wan to die and ask the prince to calm down. As the prince expected, a woman really appeared in the Liu Mansion. She was holding a general order. The officials at the door did not stop her. After we appeared, we surrounded the woman in the courtyard.
But that woman was extremely smart and was not in a hurry to take action. Instead, she checked our faces first and confirmed that we were the exiles, and then she was eager to get away. We tried our best... but... we didn't even get the hem of her clothes.
Touch..." the leading melting warrior said in annoyance.
Prince Bo Yanzhu's expression was a bit complicated. It couldn't be said to be happy, but it was definitely not angry. He waved his hand and let the warriors leave without condemning him.
A smile appeared on his face: "This Ruyi is quite interesting. It seems that it is time to put the matter of marriage on the table. The day when the country will be unified will not be too far away..."
…
…
Prince Qing, Ningwu, Chu Ao, Ruyi, and Qin Xiao knelt in the imperial study room full of anxiety, waiting for the current emperor to speak.
Not long after Ruyi investigated the destruction of the Liu family, King Qing received an imperial edict - the emperor ordered them to return to Beijing quickly, without stopping on the way, and to go directly to the palace. As for Wangchen, who had just recovered, he was not suitable for long-distance driving.
Ruyi left Xue Nu to accompany him in Western Xinjiang to help Doctor Hua treat more soldiers suffering from the epidemic.
Everyone was feeling very nervous along the way. Their first thought was that Ningwu's marriage to Chu Ao had been revealed. The emperor was preparing to ask for an explanation when he entered the palace this time.
After entering the palace and meeting the emperor, the emperor's face turned dark as expected. Seeing this, everyone had no choice but to kneel on the ground and say "Long live the emperor".
The emperor stepped back, slapped the table, and shouted: "Prince Qing! You are really capable! Do you still see me as the emperor and my brother in your eyes?"
Prince Qing fell to the ground and kowtowed: "Your Majesty, please calm down. I know that I have made a big mistake. I am willing to be punished. Please forgive me."
Upon hearing her father's confession, Ning Wu, who was kneeling next to her, refused. She flashed her eyes and said, "Your Majesty, this matter has nothing to do with my father. It is all my fault. It was me who insisted on going my own way and married
To Chu Ao. When I entered the palace some time ago, Your Majesty mentioned the marriage to me, but you only gave me a month to think about it. I thought the matter was not a certainty, so I took advantage of a loophole... Now I
She is already a married woman, so naturally she cannot remarry Prince Rongzhu. Rongzhu is always well informed, so this matter must be no secret. He will definitely choose a marriage partner for the sake of face. Ningwu feels that it is more appropriate to choose a princess to marry.
.”
The emperor snorted coldly: "The whole article is full of words like 'you think' and 'you think'. How highly do you Ningwu think of yourself? Do you have the final say on all national affairs and the welfare of the people? You are the emperor."
Or am I the emperor!"
These words were very serious. As soon as the emperor spoke, everyone fell silent.
The emperor threw a parchment in front of everyone: "Fortunately among the misfortunes, the Rongzhu people were not blamed for this incident. The last time the Rongzhu envoys came, they only briefly mentioned the marriage, but this time they made a special trip
I sent people to negotiate a marriage. I have several princesses who have not left the palace. Do you think I will make things difficult for you if my daughter can be used as a marriage partner? But when people evict the prince, they don’t care about the princesses in the palace, so they asked you to celebrate by name.
