She knew that Long Chen had a good relationship with Di Luoxi and Di Lingyi, and they were both like that.
However, she did not expect that Long Chen would propose to marry Di Lingyi in public.
"King Wu, have you made up your mind?"
The empress confirmed with Long Chen again.
Long Chen's collar was grabbed by Di Luoxi. Di Luoxi glared at Long Chen angrily, as if Di Luoxi would bite whenever Long Chen spoke.
Long Chen looked at Di Luoxi, he wanted to say something but he dared to say it.
Di Lingyi immediately stopped in front of Di Luoxi, grabbed Di Luoxi's wrist, and said: "Fourth sister, it's not sweet to twist things so hard, why are you doing this!"
Di Luoxi said angrily: "This is the melon I planted. Whether it's sweet or not is mine. Even if it's just the rind, I still have to eat it alone!"
The ministers of the DPRK shouted that Emperor Luo Xi was domineering.
Di Luoxi was overbearing, and Di Lingyi lost face, stretched out his arms and hugged Long Chen, and said: "Xiao Longlong, if you say you want to marry me, my mother will agree!"
The empress and the ministers all looked at Long Chen
"I want to marry two princesses at the same time, please give me your permission!"
Long Chen shouted loudly.
In this way, neither of them can be offended, at least that's what Long Chen thought.
Emperor Lingyi immediately said: "Mother, he said, please give me your permission!"
Di Luoxi objected strongly and said: "Queen Mother, this is my wedding, how can you interrupt it!"
The empress sat on the phoenix chair and felt a headache.
The palms and backs of her hands are full of flesh. If two daughters compete for a man, it will not be good for her to favor anyone.
"Hao Shangshu!"
The empress ordered Hao Zhiwen, the Minister of Rites, and Hao Zhiwen hurriedly came out and said with a smile: "Wei Chen is here!"
Hao Zhiwen, like other ministers, also felt that it was interesting for the two princesses to compete for a consort.
"You are the Minister of Rites. Could you please tell me, is it in line with etiquette for two princesses to marry King Wu at the same time?"
The empress cannot agree to this matter, nor can she not agree to it.
If you agree, Di Luoxi will make a scene.
If you don't agree, Di Lingyi will make a scene, and Long Chen has made a request, so it would be bad if he doesn't agree.
So, just ask the Ministry of Rites and shift the responsibility for the problem to the Ministry of Rites.
Hao Zhiwen said in embarrassment: "Your Majesty, I have never had a precedent of a princess getting married in Zhou Dynasty, so I don't know."
Since the founding of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, female emperors have been in charge of the country.
Moreover, each generation of empresses can give birth to children without getting married. They only give birth to one daughter at a time, and this daughter will be the next empress.
This is the biggest difference in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.
But in the generation of the empress, the situation was very special. The empress gave birth to four princesses.
At that time, the whole world was shocked. This broke the iron law of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.
Because before the empress, there was only one princess who did not need to get married, so there was no situation where two princesses would marry the same consort at the same time.
Therefore, the Ministry of Rites could not answer the questions the empress asked.
The empress asked again: "What about Xixia and Nanliang in the past? Have they ever had such a precedent?"
Everyone looked at Hao Zhiwen.
Hao Zhiwen thought for a long time, shook his head and said: "I am ignorant and ignorant. I don't remember that there is such a precedent."
Di Luoxi was very happy to hear what the Ministry of Etiquette said, and said: "Mother, there has never been a precedent for two princesses to marry a consort. It is not right for Third Sister to do this."
Emperor Lingyi was also anxious. He glared at Hao Zhiwen and said, "Hao Shangshu, I'll give you a chance to think about it again. Think about it before you speak!"
Hao Zhiwen was so frightened that he peed his pants and said hurriedly: "Third princess, calm down. I am ignorant and ignorant. Maybe others know."
"Old Zhuguo, you are a highly respected and well-informed man. Why don't you tell me something?"
Di Lingyi was a military commander, and his temper was not much better than that of Di Luoxi. If Di Lingyi was angered, Hao Zhiwen would not get any good results.
So Hao Zhiwen immediately changed his focus and directed the question to Gongsun Yun.
Emperor Lingyi looked at Gongsun Yun. Gongsun Yun looked embarrassed and laughed: "Third princess, please be patient. I'm sorry!"
Gongsun Yun had never heard of two princesses marrying a consort, but he couldn't say that.
Because Long Chen likes the two princesses, Gongsun Yun cannot harm Long Chen's good deeds, nor can he harm Emperor Lingyi's good deeds.
But, if you agree, there really is no precedent.
"Old Zhuguo, you have always been the pillar of Zhou Dynasty. If you don't say anything, who will?"
Emperor Lingyi was anxious and wanted an explanation.
Gongsun Yun was pushed onto the barbecue grill. He was riding a tiger and couldn't get off. He was in a dilemma.
"What kind of precedent do you need? If you marry, just marry. There is no precedent for Xiaolonglong to destroy Xixia!"
Gongsun Linglong, who was standing behind her, suddenly walked out. Seeing everyone surrounding Gongsun Yun, she stepped out to relieve the siege.
It is said that one word wakes up the dreamer.
Gongsun Linglong didn't usually study, and he wasn't very resourceful, but he was very strong.
Unexpectedly, he actually said some wise words at the critical moment.
"Yes, the girl is right. No one has ever destroyed a country before King Wu, so naturally the reward to King Wu cannot be considered based on precedent."
"Since we can't follow precedent, there's no need to consider whether there is a precedent."
"As long as the two princesses and King Wu are willing, that's fine, no need to look at any precedent!"
Gongsun Yun thought of this statement.
Since Long Chen's contribution to destroying Xixia is unprecedented, then why bother looking at what people in the past have done.
The ministers in the DPRK suddenly understood and agreed one after another:
"What Lao Zhuguo said is reasonable. King Wu takes great credit, and there is no need to look at any precedent."
"That's right. After the Martial Saint, no one has ever accomplished the task of destroying a country. The Martial King doesn't need to look at any precedent."
"Actually, there is, but that is annexing a small country and cannot be compared with it."
Nanliang also once annexed small countries, but they were very small countries and were nothing.
Xixia is a powerful country on par with the Eastern Zhou Dynasty and Nanliang. Of course, Long Chen's contribution cannot be simply discussed.
When the empress saw that all the ministers in the court said so, she said, "Luo Xi, what do you think?"
Of course Di Luoxi was unwilling and said: "I don't want it, Xiao Longlong is mine!"
Di Lingyi said: "Fourth sister, we all have a share, why should we say it's yours!"
The empress was afraid that the two sisters would quarrel, and if she revealed what happened on the bed in public, it would damage the royal family's face, so she immediately advised: "Okay, I promise King Wu that I can put forward conditions, then it's OK!"
Emperor Lingyi said with great joy: "Thank you, Queen Mother! Queen Mother is a saint!"
The empress agreed, and the ministers also agreed. Di Luoxi suffered the loss of being mute, and it was useless to say anything.
"I'm furious!"
Di Luoxi stared at Long Chen fiercely and licked her lips with her tongue, as if she wanted to swallow Long Chen alive.
Long Chen smiled awkwardly and said: "There is no way, the Holy One has to ask me to choose one thing. I can only choose Lingyi."
Long Chen's request seemed to be made casually, but in fact it was carefully considered.
On the way back, Long Chen thought that he could no longer give him an official title. He was a king, and the next step would be to proclaim himself emperor.
Long Chen couldn't ask for a fiefdom. It would be troublesome to ask for a fiefdom.
But we have to give out rewards. Not giving out rewards will make it difficult for the empress.
After much deliberation, it was most suitable to choose Emperor Ling Yi.
This is very consistent with his personality, and will not arouse the jealousy of the ministers in the court, nor will the empress be suspicious.
Anyway, both daughters have slept with Long Chen, so they might as well get married together.
Di Lingyi snuggled sweetly next to Long Chen and said: "Fourth sister, don't be so stingy, expand the scope."
The ministers in the court felt that they had watched a good show and were very happy. They all worshiped: "Your Majesty is wise, congratulations to King Wu."
The empress also breathed a sigh of relief, finally settling the state and family affairs.
Suddenly, Di Yuwei came out and said, "Queen Mother, I also want to marry King Wu!"
