Did he really not expect that Xile would go so far and recruit a son-in-law here?
He immediately grabbed Xile's arm, completely ignoring the surprised people around him.
Xile was also startled by Wu Yuan's sudden move, "What...what are you doing?"
"There must be a limit to your nonsense. Look what are you doing?" Wu Yuan was really a little angry, and even felt like he was being cheated.
In front of him, Xile actually openly looked for a man, did she think he was just air?
This was the first time that Xile saw Wu Yuan treat her like this. He was nervous and excited at the same time, and the excitement got the upper hand. This man still cared about her.
"You can still laugh?" Wu Yuan pinched Xile's face, preparing to teach her a lesson.
But at this time, Xile finally responded, "Da Yuanzi, you are taking too much care of me. I will not care about you and will step down immediately."
She didn't want to be disturbed by Wu Yuan at this time. While talking to Wu Yuan, she also didn't forget to wink at Xin Ruyan and Mo Qiaoer.
The two women immediately came over understandingly, and then each of them pulled Wu Yuan up by force.
Wu Yuan wanted to resist, but Xin Ruyan and Mo Qiaoer were two top masters. How could Wu Yuan be his opponent?
Xin Ruyan even persuaded him with a smile at this time: "Da Yuanzi, we all know that you have thoughts about the prince, but you are too ugly, so don't have such wishful thinking. Just be your poor scholar."
Wu Yuanqi's liver ached, but he couldn't break free from the restraints of Xin Ruyan and Mo Qiaoer.
Over there, the people around also heard what Xin Ruyan said just now, and then they realized that this ugly monster was a toad who wanted to eat swan meat.
He is a poor scholar, but he is worthy enough to covet the first queen of Dawu. He is simply unbelievable.
At the same time, everyone became excited after confirming that Xile was not joking.
They never expected that today's banquet would bring them such a big surprise.
If he could become Xile's man, he could also be called his consort.
The Maurya King's consort, this title alone is enough for them to honor their ancestors.
Not to mention being a guarantor, even if they lose everything, they are willing to give 10 million taels of gold to Xile.
At this time, Li Yindi was also looking at Xile with dumbfounded eyes, his face as ugly as if he had eaten a fly.
If he had known that Xile had such a plan, nothing he said just now would have offended Xile.
Zhao Kuan was the first to react and said immediately: "Your Majesty, my Zhao family is willing to be your guarantor. Even the ten million taels of gold, my Zhao family is willing to repay it on your behalf."
Zhao Kuan knew how to seize the opportunity and made a statement immediately.
But others are not far behind. Isn't it just ten million taels of gold? There will always be something if you squeeze.
As long as they can become the consort, nothing is a problem. They have even thought about how to make money back in the future.
Everyone was talking to each other, and soon they started to quarrel.
Li Yindi, who had never been embarrassed to interrupt, after struggling for a while, walked up to Xile with a flattering look on his face.
"Your Majesty, how offended I was just now. I wonder if I, Li Yindi, am still qualified to win your smile, Your Majesty?"
Xile looked at Li Yindi and sneered inwardly, but said very generously: "I have always been generous. Since I keep you here, of course I will not deprive you of your qualification to run."
Li Yindi was immediately pleasantly surprised. He really didn't expect that Xi Le would be willing to give him a chance regardless of past grudges.
But immediately, Li Yindi also reacted, "election?"
Although the others were noisy just now, they were also paying attention to Xile's movements and heard the word campaign.
Xile also said to everyone: "Of course we have to run for office, otherwise when will you be able to fight for the top spot?"
If you think about it carefully, this is indeed the truth.
Li Yindi asked hurriedly and eagerly: "Then how does the prince want to run for office? A competition of financial resources? Or a competition of fists and feet?"
Upon hearing the comparison of financial resources, many people frowned.
Although these people are not short of money, there is still a gap. At least compared with the three major aristocratic families, most people here are still a little behind.
Not to mention, there are many second-generation officials here. If possible, they would rather compete with fists and kicks.
In this case, everyone should be at about the same level and still have a chance to compete.
Under everyone's nervous and expectant gazes, Xile finally revealed the rules for running for a husband.
"First of all, everyone who wants to run for office must lend me money, at least two hundred thousand taels of gold."
"After all, the main purpose of my coming to you tonight is to borrow money. If you don't want to, I won't force you."
Hearing what Xile said, everyone's expressions were fine and there was no dissatisfaction at all.
He looked completely different from the resisting and doubtful look just now.
"I'll give you a stick of incense time to prepare, pay to sign up, and then I'll tell you the election rules." Of course Xile will not be stupid enough to announce the election rules directly, otherwise some people will know that they are not good enough and will not want to borrow money.
That's not a waste of time.
No one will carry hundreds of thousands of gold tickets with them, so you have to give these people time to prepare.
After Xile finished speaking, these people disappeared without a trace, and even Li Yindi and Zhao Kuan went back to prepare.
If it were only 200,000 taels of gold tickets, they could get it now, but they know very well that only 200,000 taels of gold tickets are far from enough.
In order to win Xile's trust, the more the better, of course. Furthermore, they also had to prepare for the upcoming election.
The courtyard, which was bustling just a moment ago, suddenly became quiet.
What surprised Xile was that Ouyang Shishi was still here.
Seeing this, Xile couldn't help but joked: "Shishi, don't you Ouyang family want to participate?"
Ouyang Shishi shook her head, "My two brothers have already gotten married, so of course they won't have any illusions. As for my unworthy brother, he doesn't deserve it!"
Xile was also directly amused by Ouyang Shishi's words, "You sister has done really well, so why do you stay here?"
After finishing speaking, Xile also remembered some rumors, "Shishi, are you really interested in women? Do you also want to be my husband?"
Ouyang Shishi rejected so many suitors that some bad rumors spread.
This is also a hot topic in the circle.
Ouyang Shishi was not angry because of Xile's rudeness, but just smiled bitterly and said: "Shishi still likes men, but there is no man who can make Shishi look at her with admiration. The reason why she stays is because of something.
I want to discuss the matter with you, Your Majesty."
