Chapter 300 The Twisted Melon
Ye Zhaoyan raised his jaw slightly, and a trace of mockery flashed in his eyes. King Qing really put in a lot of effort to put on a show.

Zhuo Yibai's face was still calm, but sharpness appeared in his eyes unconsciously, "The prince is so affectionate, it is touching, but I don't know if Miss Ye's heart is as good as the prince's?"

The fingers in his sleeves were lightly clenched, "If the other party doesn't have a prince in his heart or has long been interested in him, or even General Ye doesn't agree with this marriage at all, and forces the marriage, I'm afraid it will be counterproductive. I'm afraid it will not only be a mistake It will damage the Ye family's reputation, and also damage the prince's wisdom."

"This..." This sentence touched King Qing's guilty conscience, but he was not at all timid, "This king believes that gold and stone can be opened wherever Jin Cheng goes. Given time, she will definitely understand my king's intentions."

Speaking of this, he paused for a moment, turned to Ye Zhaoyan, and said, "If Ye Zhaoyan can agree to this marriage, this king is willing to offer the position of Princess Qing."

As soon as this remark was made, public opinion arose again. I don't know where this daughter of the Ye family has the ability to make King Qing so affectionate?
In the past, I only heard that Ye Zhaoyan was unconventional, and even lacked the virtuousness and talent of a noble lady. Is such a person really worthy of the king?
"Oh? King Qing is really so sure that marrying Ye's daughter is out of respect for General Ye?" Someone in the crowd said, it was a bookish official and one of Ye Wenxuan's disciples, Zhong Xueshi.

King Qing didn't expect that there were people in the court who were beyond their control to stand up for Ye Zhaoyan.

"What's the meaning of Xueshi Zhong?" He glanced at the other party coldly, "The general has worked hard for many years and made great military achievements, so he deserves to be supported. The daughter of Ye's daughter is beautiful and straightforward, she is a rare woman, my king Naturally, I hope to become good friends of Qin and Jin with the Ye family, is there any problem with this?"

"I'm just worried about the lord. Ye's concubine is free and unrestrained and acts rashly. I'm afraid it's not suitable for you to be a queen, right?" Zhong Xue said with a heartbroken look on his face.

"Whether it suits you or not is not up to Scholar Zhong." Qing Wang frowned, feeling bad, he really didn't like to compete with such sharp-mouthed and sour people.

"King Qing knows that the general's heirs are weak. Although the adopted son is taking care of the Ye family's army, he only has the blood of Ye Zhaoyan. Once Ye Zhaoyan leaves the Ye family, there will be no heir to take care of the Ye family's property. It is really not suitable to marry out of the house." Zhong Zhong The bachelor spoke earnestly, "Furthermore, General Ye does not want the roots of the Ye family to fall into his family."

Hearing the previous discussion, everyone's expressions were still normal, and after the last few words, the whole room was silent.

Bachelor Zhong, what is this implying?Thinking about it carefully, it's really heart-breaking words.

Everyone knows that Ye Zhaoyan has an honorable status in the Ye clan. If he gets married, he will not only have the military power and family fortune of the entire Ye clan, but also use the Ye family's relationship to enrich himself.

There are men who hold such aspirations, but no one has dared to get their hands on it. After all, Ye Wenxuan is well-known, and Ye Zhaoyan's actions are impermanent. It is not an ordinary family that would dare to annex it.

What Xueshi Zhong said today awakened everyone. Even a high-ranking and powerful King Qing might not be able to refuse this piece of fat, so he insisted on marrying the daughter of the Ye family.

Hearing this, there was finally a crack in Qing Wangyun's calm and breezy expression, but he quickly covered it up and returned to his dignified gentleman appearance.

Amid the shock on everyone's faces, Xueshi Zhong seemed to be really thinking about the overall situation, and tried harder to persuade: "Therefore, if you don't let Ye's concubine stay in Ye's family, recruit a good son-in-law into the mansion, and wait for General Ye to return to the field, Ye The daughter of the family can also be filial in front of the elders. Besides, General Ye has always loved his daughter and granddaughter, if the prince accepts Miss Ye as his wife, I am afraid he will not be able to take concubines anymore."

This Scholar Zhong was indeed one of Ye Wenxuan's most attentive disciples. He was indeed courageous. As a civil servant, he dared to openly challenge King Qing. He was betting his own future. It was too arrogant.

"How can you decide whether to accept a concubine based on nonsense?" King Qing chuckled, covering up the cruelty in his eyes, "As a child of the royal family, I shoulder the important task of being the heir of the royal family, how can I be trifling? However, Ye The general loves Miss Ye's family very much, if marrying her into Prince Qing's residence, it will really hinder filial piety, so, this king can send someone to bring the general to Prince Qing's residence as much as possible, so that the whole general can enjoy family happiness."

King Qing's move was obviously telling everyone that he not only wanted to marry Miss Ye's family, but also wanted to bring the Ye family into Prince Qing's residence.

As soon as these words came out, everyone couldn't help but look sideways. General Ye's father was a fierce general under the command of Taizu. He once held an army of [-] tigers and wolves. Not a loyal minister.

Now this is to join King Qing's command and become a force in this line?

"What King Qing said is true," just as King Qing finished speaking, Emperor Donglin clapped his hands and praised: "General Ye has been a soldier for half his life, and he only has one daughter under his knees. He should indeed be allowed to take care of himself as soon as possible."

"Your Majesty is wise, General Ye is loyal to the king and protects the country, the daughter of the Ye family must not be wronged." King Qing said respectfully.

For a while, there was a voice of agreement in the hall, but there were still a lot of voices of doubt.

Is King Qing doing it for the military power of the Ye family?This is a question that many people are concerned about, but due to King Qing's status in the court, no one raised it.

"Although the daughter of Ye's concubine is a female-like generation, she does not give in to her male eyebrows. Whether it is appearance or martial arts, she is excellent, and she is barely enough to match the king." Seeing the good situation, Yan Gurong stood up and said at the right time.

"Your Majesty," Vice Commander Zhao couldn't help but knelt down and said to Emperor Donglin, "Since the founding of Tianlu, all marriages have followed the orders of the parents and the words of the matchmaker. The marriage of the daughter of the Ye family should be asked Let the general make a decision."

He belongs to General Ye's faction, he was awakened by Xueshi Zhong's remarks just now, and he finally understood the key point.

The situation was urgent, he couldn't just watch Ye's family being tricked by gangsters.

Emperor Donglin's deep eyes slowly scanned the crowd, his expression darkened, "I don't know what King Qing thinks?"

"..." King Qing hesitated to speak, and then sighed: "All the ministers value the general so much. If the younger brother is stubborn and obstructs, I am afraid that he will be criticized by others, but the younger brother sincerely asks for marriage. Miss Ruoye is willing to marry into Prince Qing's mansion. The younger brother will come to see General Ye in person, clarify his mind, and promise to treat his granddaughter kindly, then the general can feel at ease."

Emperor Donglin nodded, this marriage can no longer be swayed by public opinion, the eunuch at the side was always very winking, and was about to present the document when a calm and gentle female voice came: "Your Majesty is so loving, why never ask My regards?"

Everyone followed the prestige, only to see a woman in a silver and white dress stepping forward, her brows were piercing, her eyes were looking forward, and there was a bit of sassy attitude when looking forward.

It was Ye Zhaoyan.
