Chapter 413 Marrying Ben Gong is better than marrying a bad old man?
Chapter 413: Marrying me is better than marrying a bad old man, right?
At this time, the Zhu family reception hall.
The head of the Zhu family, Zhu Xin, sat on the main seat with a gloomy expression.
Next to him, sat a young man, wearing a luxurious brocade robe, with an elegant temperament and a gentle smile.
On both sides of the hall, a group of elderly people lined up on the left and right.
They are all the heads and elders of aristocratic families in the capital of Longyan Kingdom. Each of them has a respectful and humble smile on their face, and they are obviously full of awe for the young man in front of them.
Because, the young man is none other than Prince Longyan Ji Yixuan!
"Your Highness, please come here this time. I won't mince words and speak directly.
I hope His Highness the Crown Prince can form an alliance with our family!"
At this time, an elder with white beard and hair took the lead in cupping his hand and said straight to the point.
"An alliance?
You aristocratic families have been severely oppressed by your father. Now you are trying to form an alliance with this prince. Do you know that you are committing the crime of deceiving the emperor?
!”
Ji Yixuan snorted coldly, his tone was quite tough, but there was no anger in his tone.
"Your Highness, I know what you are saying, but now the Qingque Kingdom is watching the border, but His Majesty the Emperor has never shown up. Not only did he not take any action against foreigners, but he issued various decrees to suppress our family. If this is the case,
If we don’t unite at this time, when Qingque comes to the country and breaks through the country, our family will inevitably suffer disaster!"
"Furthermore, His Highness the Crown Prince, now is the time when our Long Yan Kingdom needs a big backer. Our family, together with His Highness the Crown Prince, will definitely help the Crown Prince ascend the throne of Emperor Long Yan!"
"Hmph! The family has been in trouble for thousands of years. Now, my father's severe suppression has eliminated this hidden danger for a period of time. Now you want to exchange benefits again?
I can tell you that I have already seen clearly the character of your aristocratic families, do you want me to become your puppet?"
Ji Yixuan said in a cold tone.
He has indeed seen through the nature of these aristocratic families, and also knows how selfish and greedy the people in these aristocratic families are.
However, their greed and arrogance do not pose much of a threat to him. Instead, they become a knife for him to use them.
Hearing Ji Yixuan's words, the elders from the aristocratic family looked embarrassed and did not dare to say anything more, so they could only shut up.
At this time, the previous elder hurriedly explained: "Your Highness has misunderstood. How dare the old man and others have such ambitions? We just want to form an alliance with His Highness the Crown Prince. As long as His Highness is willing to protect our family and prevent us from falling apart."
Despite the suffering, I and others are willing to do the hard work of dogs and horses, and will always be loyal to His Highness the Crown Prince!"
"Oh, are you really willing to be loyal to me?"
Ji Yixuan sneered.
"I am willing, I am willing, I will never dare to have second thoughts!"
All the family heads and elders immediately knelt down on the ground and said in a very sincere manner.
Zhu Xin, who was sitting on the main seat, saw this and his expression did not change. He was still drinking tea with his teacup in hand.
But deep in his eyes, there was a hint of ridicule.
If there is no benefit, he can't afford it. He doesn't believe that these family elders will really be so loyal.
Ji Yixuan is not stupid either. He knows clearly in his heart that these aristocratic elders only want to use him to achieve their power, and he also wants to use their power to control the entire Longyan Kingdom.
Thinking of this, an evil smile appeared on Ji Yixuan's face.
He raised his head, looked at the family heads and elders who were kneeling on the ground, and said: "In that case, I will tell you the truth. Although my current power is not as powerful as my father, it is almost the same. If I want to
There is no way my father can stop me from proclaiming myself emperor.
But if you give up, I will not abuse my power like my father, and I will not let you suffer any injustice. As long as you obey my orders, you can continue to enjoy the glory and wealth."
Ji Yixuan said in a cold tone.
"Yes, yes, I and others will follow His Highness's arrangements!"
Hearing this, everyone hurriedly said in unison.
For the sake of the prince's majesty and strength, they couldn't help but feel relieved when they heard what the prince said.
They are now also eager to become the overlord of one party and the supreme leader of the Dragon Flame Kingdom.
Ji Yixuan nodded with satisfaction and said to the elders: "Okay, get up."
Everyone stood up one after another, with sweat on their foreheads, but their expressions were extremely excited. Being able to form an alliance with the prince this time was not in vain for their hard work and the pressure of deceiving the emperor.
"Zhu family master, what do you mean by blessing the family?"
Ji Yixuan looked at Zhu Xin and asked.
Zhu Xin frowned and said, "Your Highness, I don't have any ambitions. I just hope that Your Highness can protect the Zhu family. Everything else... doesn't matter."
Zhu Xin said "I" and did not refer to the Zhu family.
In fact, his meaning was very simple. He just wanted to help his eldest daughter Zhu Xuan get rid of her marriage to Emperor Longyan Ji Xu, but he had some hesitations and worries in his heart.
Although he dotes on his daughter, he also knows very well that due to the biased treatment of the family elders, the meager power he and his youngest daughter Zhu Yan have developed over the years is not enough to compete with Ji Xu. If Ji Xu really wants to deal with
He couldn't stop Zhu Xuan from doing anything.
This time, if he hadn't been pressured by the family elders, he would never have thought of forming an alliance with other aristocratic families and Prince Ji Yixuan.
Because the prince Ji Yixuan is not a good person. Although he looks very calm on the surface, in fact, he is a treacherous figure. If he really becomes the emperor, then for everyone in Longyan Shangguo,
, an absolute nightmare.
Therefore, the Zhus and their daughters were extremely afraid of Ji Yixuan.
"hehe."
Seeing Zhu Xun's cautious look, Ji Yixuan sneered: "Master Zhu, I won't force you. I can promise to let you sit back and relax, but you have to remember that if you have any different intentions in the future, there will be consequences
You know it!"
"His Royal Highness is so magnanimous, I will definitely remember it in my heart!"
Zhu Xun secretly cursed Ji Yixuan a few times, and then complimented her with a smile.
Ji Yixuan nodded and continued: "Flattery on the surface is not enough, you also need to come up with something to show your sincerity!"
"Sincerity?"
When Zhu Xing heard this, his heart sank.
"right!"
Ji Yixuan nodded lightly and said: "I have seen your exiled eldest daughter Zhu Xuan in the market before. She is as beautiful as a flower and has amazing talents. If she can marry me, what will happen to us?"
The relationship between them has an extremely important impact!"
What?
After hearing Ji Yixuan's words, everyone present was shocked.
They didn't expect that Ji Yixuan would make such a ridiculous request!
good!
Zhu Xuan is very beautiful, but so what?
She is someone who has long been listed as one of the current emperor's treasures. If Zhu Xun and others had not stopped her earlier, she would have become a concubine in Long Yan's harem, which means she is Ji Yixuan's elder.
Now, although Ji Yixuan has planned to overthrow Ji Xu and inherit the throne, but is it too rebellious to blatantly steal a woman from his father?
For a moment, everyone's eyes fell on Zhu Xin.
In their opinion, Zhu Xin should refuse Ji Yixuan's request, right?
After all, I just had the opportunity to rescue my daughter from the tiger's mouth, and now I want to throw her into the wolf's den?
If you do this, wouldn't you be slapping yourself in the face?
However, Zhu Xin frowned and said nothing, neither refusing nor agreeing.
When Ji Yixuan saw this, he smiled and said: "Anyway, a woman is just a chess piece, a bargaining chip. No matter who she is married to, the child born will not be named Zhu after all. Therefore, maximizing interests is the kingly way. Marrying this palace is like this."
A young man in his prime is better than marrying a rotten old man like his father, right?
!”
Having said this, Ji Yixuan looked at Zhu Xin, the head of the Zhu family, with a smile, and asked with a smile: "Master Zhu, what do you think?"
"I think it's feasible!"
Before Zhu Xing could answer, several Zhu family elders in the hall had already answered.
"Yes, Master, isn't your original intention to get rid of the eldest lady from His Majesty... His Majesty Ji Xu's marriage?
Since His Highness has said these words and is so righteous in destroying the marriage, you should strike while the iron is hot and get the marriage done immediately to stop Ji Xu from thinking about it!"
Another flattering greeting to the parents.
"I also agree. I hope the master of the family will handle this matter quickly to avoid long nights and many dreams!"
The other two elders also echoed.
After hearing the words of these elders, Zhu Xun's face suddenly turned ugly, and a trace of anger surged in his eyes...
