Among those in the imperial court who rejected the emperor, Prince Ling was the first, and Long Qian was the second.
No one believed that they were not husband and wife.
"Princess Qian." Concubine De looked at Long Qian, a little worried.
"Let her speak for herself." The emperor said a few words lightly.
His expression was ordinary, but he was not angry. No one knew what he was thinking.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Long Qian stood up and leaned forward.
"The women of the people think that the Royal Guards are the emperor's army and the army of the people. It is overqualified for them to protect the women of the people."
"The emperor's appointment of a common woman as a princess is already the best protection for the common daughter, so why waste national resources anymore?"
Her voice fell, and there was silence.
Long Qian looked directly into the emperor's eyes, neither humble nor arrogant.
Whether you are a wise king or a foolish king, they all have one thing in common, that is, they cherish their talents.
The immortal poison has not been broken yet, and there are still many unknowns in the future. Long Qian concluded that the emperor will not kill him for the time being.
She doesn't have any freedom in her life, and it doesn't make sense to give her more money.
Since Chu Dongling doesn't agree with her to have this army, she just doesn't want it.
"Okay." The emperor suddenly clapped his hands, "Since Princess Qian doesn't need it, I won't force it."
"I actually have a selfish motive for asking Princess Qian to come here today."
The emperor raised his lips slightly and continued: "I want to find a witness for the wedding of Prince Ling and Princess Ningxia."
"Princess Qian is erudite and unconventional. She is one of the few strange women I have ever seen."
"I wonder if you are willing to be the witness and witness with everyone the happiness of Prince Ling and Princess Ningxia?"
When Chu Lingxu heard this, he sneered and walked out of the queue: "Father, I heard that the third emperor's younger brother did not intend to Princess Ningxia."
"Do you want to ask the Third Emperor's brother for his opinion? In case he is unhappy again."
This means that if King Ling is not happy, he will most likely refuse the emperor's order on the spot.
On the one hand, Chu Lingxu wanted to know whether Chu Dongling still had feelings for Long Qian, on the other hand, he also wanted to remind the emperor of the fact that Chu Dongling had been treasonous.
"Prince Ling, how do you think about this matter?" The emperor's eyes fell on Chu Dongling, and his voice was obviously colder.
Chu Dongling looked at Long Qian and stepped out of the queue.
"If Princess Ruoqian has no objection, I will only obey the emperor's will."
"What does it have to do with me whether you have a wife or not?" Long Qian looked at him and whispered.
Chu Dongling met her eyes, his thin lips slightly raised.
"Princess Qian is willing to pretend to be a maid and enter the mausoleum in order to get close to the king. You won't forget this, right?"
"I hate trouble the most. If I want to take a concubine, I still hope to get the consent of Princess Qian, so as not to bring trouble to myself."
Long Qian was originally thinking about how to get rid of the task of being a witness to the marriage, but now that she saw that Chu Dongling needed a beating, she was not afraid of the trouble at all.
She turned around and bowed her hands to the emperor.
"Your Majesty, I would like to serve as a witness to the marriage between Prince Ling and Princess Ningxia."
How could she pretend to be a maid just to get close to him? She was tricked into the mausoleum because she had no money, okay?
"Very good!" The emperor nodded with satisfaction, "Tomorrow is a good day, and the wedding will be tomorrow."
"Is there anything else that needs to be done at the ministers' house? If there is something to do, we will start to do it. If there is nothing to do, we will leave the court!"
"Father." Chu Lingxu handed over his hand again, "My son, I still have one more thing to say."
"Say!" The emperor waved his hand.
"Thank you, Father!" When Chu Lingxu raised his head, an evil smile escaped from the corner of his mouth.
"I sincerely ask my father to make the decision for my son, who wants to marry Princess Qian as his wife."
