"Getting married!?" In Fengwu Palace, Han Yulang was so shocked that he almost fell off his chair. He looked at Si Ningchi in astonishment and said, "...the Holy King is pleased with me?"
"That's what it is." Si Ningchi nodded calmly while holding a tea cup, looking at the ever-changing expression on Han Yulang's face, as if he had been frightened, and a little confused. He sat there with a sullen face for a long time.
If it was about marriage, many people asked about it during her stay in Beijing, but she rejected them all.
In addition, she was busy with military affairs and rarely stayed at home, so those who wanted to marry her might not be able to meet her.
Zhao Yuanzhen could always find various excuses to work with her, or find various errands for her to do. The two of them had more and more contact with each other. If it was just such a relationship, she would not avoid it again and again.
In fact, the caring shown by Zhao Yuanzhen at certain moments was too uncomfortable. She once thought that Zhao Yuanzhen's overtures to win over her were intended to bring her under his command. He had an impure mind and was really not good to be with.
but……
When Han Yulang reminded the emperor several times, overtly or covertly, of the Holy King's recent movements, the Emperor pretended not to have seen it, and even acquiesced in the intimate relationship between her and the Holy King.
This made Han Yulang very puzzled, and he never figured out what was going on.
Today, I was invited to the palace by the queen, and I finally figured it out.
"The Empress summoned me today to grant me a marriage?" Han Yulang looked serious, without any shyness as a woman. Instead, he quickly sorted out the stakes, raised his eyes and asked Si Ningchi.
"The emperor has no intention of granting a marriage, and this palace will not be so troubled." Si Ningchi curled his lips and smiled and continued: "But if General Han is also interested in the Holy King, maybe the emperor is willing to be the matchmaker."
"Since the Emperor has no intention of granting marriage..." Han Yulang secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I don't need to obey the Holy Emperor's will to get married?"
Si Ningchi nodded unhurriedly, not surprised at all by Han Yulang's reaction.
Han Yulang carefully considered his words and continued: "I understand. Thank you to the Queen for your words. I will go to the Emperor in person to make it clear. I am only focused on leading the army and have no interest in family affairs. I have no intention of getting married, and I have no love for the Holy King."
.”
Si Ningchi raised his eyebrows and smiled, blinked slightly and looked at Han Yulang and said: "The Holy King has a high position and is also the emperor's uncle. With his excellent appearance, he is the perfect choice for a good husband. Why did General Han refuse?"
Han Yulang bowed his head respectfully and said: "To be honest with the Queen, I was accidentally injured many years ago when leading troops to meet the enemy. The injury affected my abdominal cavity and I am no longer able to bear children."
"The Holy King has a noble status and belongs to the royal family of Tianqing Kingdom. He should not marry a princess who has nothing to do." Han Yulang did not feel sad at all when he mentioned these things. Instead, he continued as if he was analyzing the situation: "I am free.
She is not a lieutenant in the army, let alone living in the back house to share the worries of the Holy King. She is really not a suitable candidate for the princess."
"Moreover..." Han Yulang paused and frowned before saying, "I have no intention of treating the Holy King."
This sentence was said unintentionally without any hesitation, which shows that she really doesn't like it...
After Han Yulang came out of Fengwu Palace, he headed towards Xuanming Palace. Without even thinking about it, he knew that he was going to reply to the emperor.
This marriage won't work out.
Si Ningchi had no intention of persuading him and only explained clearly what Zhao Zongheng had told him. The remaining decision was Han Yulang's own business.
Han Yulang was stopped by Zhao Yuanzhen when he came out of Xuanming Hall. Although she had just learned that Zhao Yuanzhen was happy with her, when facing Zhao Yuanzhen, she still looked indifferent, just a little more
Troubled.
"I've met the Holy King." She stopped, already knowing why the Holy King stopped her.
"The emperor allowed you to lead the troops to suppress the bandits?" Zhao Yuanzhen looked at Han Yulang for a while and asked in a low voice.
"Yes." Han Yulang didn't hide anything. He raised his eyes and looked directly at Zhao Yuanzhen and said, "I will leave Beijing soon."
"General Han, please be safe." Zhao Yuanzhen saw the firm and fearless spirit in her eyes. Even though she knew his intentions, she did not waver in the slightest. No matter what, he could not keep her.
"Thank you to the Holy King for your love. Yulang has no luck in accepting it." Han Yulang raised his hand and bowed to Zhao Yuanzhen and said: "May the Holy King find a good match and stop wasting unnecessary time on me."
Zhao Yuanxi moved his lips and finally agreed: "Okay."
He was a little lost in thought as he watched Han Yulang walk away. He didn't miss her at all. Her slender and straight figure seemed to have the courage to shoulder everything. It seemed reasonable for a woman to have such magnanimity that he bowed down for this.
Zhao Yuanzhen smiled silently, and finally turned around and walked towards the palace, which was the opposite direction to Han Yulang.
The incident between Zhao Yuanzhen and Han Yulang did not cause much turmoil. After all, Han Yulang's identity was there, and no one dared to say anything. Furthermore, on the third day after receiving the emperor's order, Han Yulang led his troops and left the capital.
Han Yulang left Beijing, but Fang Zhiyao was in good health and went to the palace to see him.
Compared with the last time I saw her, this little girl has grown a little taller, and her eyebrows have become more cute and cute. Perhaps she has lost a lot of weight due to the long journey, but her eyes are still smiling, looking at Si Ning.
Chi leaned over to greet him.m
"Get up quickly." Si Ningchi asked Fang Zhiyao to sit down, looked at her and said with a smile, "Why don't you rest more in the post house?"
"It's very boring in the post house. Zhiyao misses the queen!" Fang Zhiyao looked at Si Ningchi with bright eyes, as if he was filled with love for meeting his idol.
"Unruly girl." Princess Lu was a little nervous when she saw Fang Zhiyao treating Si Ningchi so affectionately, but at the same time she felt that the queen's attitude towards her daughter was indeed excellent.
"It doesn't matter. There is no need to be restrained here in this palace." Si Ningchi sat lazily on the chair. Compared with Princess Lu who sat upright, she was really not a formal queen.
"There will be a polo match in two days. You can also go and have fun." Si Ningchi raised his eyes slightly and said with a smile, "There are many young talents. Is there anyone you would like if the princess goes to have a look?"
"..." Fang Zhiyao wanted to refuse, but thinking of her mother sitting aside, she still agreed honestly.
After chatting in circles for a long time, Fang Zhiyao asked as if casually: "Why don't you see the eldest son entering the palace to visit the empress? But...but the eldest son is married?"
Si Ningchi glanced at Fang Zhiyao. Although she tried her best to hide it, the unreasonable nervousness could not be concealed, and the eyes looking at Si Ningchi became a little uneasy.
Si Ningchi curved his lips and smiled, then said unhurriedly: "Wei Zeng, this brother of mine... has a grudge and doesn't want to get married."
