"So, the eldest young master is going to reject me?" Fang Zhiyao had actually expected that this would be the case, but she wanted to give it a try no matter what, and it seemed that she had to hear what he said in person before she could give up.
"The sincerity of the little princess should not be wasted on me." Si Haoze tightened his hands in his sleeves, lowered his eyebrows and lowered his eyes and said softly: "I can't take good care of you."
"How will you know if you don't try?" Fang Zhiyao suddenly smiled, stared at Si Haoze and said, "I will tell my father and ask the emperor to propose marriage."
"If the eldest son is really so tough and refuses to show mercy, then please ask the eldest son to go to the emperor in person to refuse the marriage." Fang Zhiyao said and stood up and said: "If you refuse, I will do what the emperor said.
I wish to marry whoever the emperor wants me to marry."
"Staying in the capital forever is what my father needs me to do for him." Fang Zhiyao said to Si Haoze: "Perhaps the eldest son thinks that the man I have never seen and don't know is more suitable for me?
"
After Fang Zhiyao said these words to Si Haoze, she stood up and left. She walked in such a hurry that she didn't even wait for Si Ningchi to come back. It seemed that this was the only way to maintain her final vulnerability.
Si Haoze sat in his original position, looking at Fang Zhiyao's retreating back in a daze. He didn't even notice Si Ningchi walking out.
Si Ningchi could easily see the struggling look on Si Haoze's face. It was obvious that he was not as firm as he said. As Si Ningchi thought, even though Si Haoze was in a high position and seemed peaceful, in fact, he was not as firm as he said.
I have always been extremely concerned about my crippled legs.
And it was precisely because of this care that Si Haoze repeatedly refused to give in to Fang Zhiyao.
But today, Fang Zhiyao has revealed his true feelings. If Si Haoze can really watch Fang Zhiyao marry someone else indifferently, Si Ningchi will not say anything more. This is all she can do, and the rest is up to her.
My brother made this decision.
"Brother has been in the capital for a long time, so he must have understood the situation in the court." Si Ningchi pursed his lips and said in a low voice: "The emperor intends to retain King Lu and marry the young princess into the imperial city as a bargaining chip, whether it is
King Lu is still doing good things to the emperor."
"This person is not my brother, it could be someone else."
"Brother, don't you have any feelings for the little princess?"
Si Ningchi did not hear the answer to this question from Si Haoze, and Fang Zhiyao did go to marry King Lu as she said. When King Lu entered the palace to ask for the emperor's hand in marriage, Si Ningchi happened to be in Zhao Zongheng's house.
around.
Zhao Zongheng did not leave any words for King Lu's move, he only said that he would think about it.
After King Lu left, Zhao Zongheng looked at Si Ningchi helplessly and asked with a smile: "Which drama is this playing?"
Si Ningchi blinked as if nothing had happened and said, "The emperor just followed his heart, but I didn't do anything."
"What do you mean, do you want me to agree to King Lu's request and grant a marriage to the little princess?" Zhao Zongheng stared at her for a moment, and said with some humor: "It's easy to grant a marriage, but if Si Haoze refuses the marriage, you want me to
To punish or not to punish?”
"My concubine's brother may not refuse the marriage." Si Ningchi curled his lips and smiled, winking at Zhao Zongheng with a sly look and smiling.
Zhao Zongheng was silent, wondering where his queen could have such confidence.
He considered it again and again, and did not issue an edict to confer marriage immediately. Instead, he considered it for three days before ordering someone to invite Si Haoze into the palace and place the written edict in front of him.
