Chapter 301 Unbelievable

Ye Zhaoyan's voice was full of righteousness, which was shocking.

Everyone knows that General Ye dotes on the daughter of the Ye family, and Ye Zhaoyan, the daughter of the Ye family, is even the baby lump held in the palm of General Ye. She was injured and wanted to replace her with her own body. This is how she was cultivated. Free and unrestrained character.

However, such a temperament is commendable on a man, but it will be criticized if it is a woman.

King Qing squinted at Ye Zhaoyan. This daughter of the Ye family's concubine has been under constant criticism because of her recent behavior. She was even excluded from the range of women who are suitable to marry.

Looking carefully, she is very beautiful, much more eye-catching than the noble lady behind her, her slightly cold eyes are faintly shining, with a kind of charm that is breathtaking.

This is the most unique woman he has ever seen, even the favorite concubine he has seen in the palace is far from comparable to her.

Ye Zhaoyan walked all the way to King Qing, raised his eyes and looked straight into the other's eyes, "My lord, why don't you answer?"

King Qing was startled, and then smiled: "I never wanted to know Miss Ye's mind, but I have been busy with many affairs recently, so I have no time to visit in person. If Miss Ye asks, I will be very happy, and naturally I am willing to ask carefully." " Paused, and added, "When the king gave the gift to Ye's mansion, he was not stopped, so he guessed Miss Ye's intentions on his own. If there is any offense, I ask Miss Ye to forgive me."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone was stunned. No wonder King Qing acted so boldly. The Ye family did not stop him from giving gifts to express their intentions, and they had already understood it.

"Oh? So His Highness Prince Qing's gift has such a meaning?" Ye Zhaoyan raised his head slightly, "In that case, I would like to ask my lord, when the lord gave the gift at that time, he did not explain the purpose of the gift. Return gifts indiscriminately?"

"Miss Ye misunderstood," King Qing asked with doubts on his face, as if he didn't understand what Ye Zhaoyan meant, and asked in a hesitant tone, "Did Miss Ye not open those gifts? Although the king didn't express his intentions, some gifts came with This king thinks that the Ye family understands the meaning of auspicious marriage."

That said, it seems like a misunderstanding.

"The Ye family doesn't have the heart to cling, so naturally they never opened the gift to enjoy it." Ye Zhaoyan raised his lips and smiled, not being fooled, "Could it be that the prince thinks that marriage is like buying and selling, and if you give a token as a hint, if you don't like it, you have to return it immediately to express it." Mind?"

This sentence immediately attracted the attention of everyone around him. King Qing's eyelids jumped, and the other party beat him upside down and stomped his face on the ground.

"No." Qing Wang lowered his eyes to cover the emotions in his eyes, "I am reckless, so I apologize to Ms. Ye for this matter, and I hope Ms. Ye can understand my infatuation and ignore the previous suspicions."

Ye Zhaoyan raised his eyebrows, as if a little surprised, "My lord's apology, I forgive Ye Zhaoyan for not being able to accept it." After speaking, he turned to face the crowd, and said in a loud voice: "His Royal Highness, King Qing, is outstanding and magnificent. He is a rare young man for being diligent in politics." Ye Zhaoyan paused for a moment after speaking, "But—"

King Qing's expression changed slightly, and a bad premonition filled her heart, and she suddenly smiled: "However, the Ye family is a family of military generals for a century, and has gone through the baptism of war. Now there is only Zhaoyan, a single seedling, and the marriage of the Ye family is bound to happen." Be cautious."

"This king knows that the daughter of the Ye family is tough, so he is naturally willing to wait." King Qing said immediately.

Ye Zhaoyan ignored him, turned around and walked towards Emperor Donglin. She had a tall and straight figure, walked vigorously, and saluted Emperor Donglin with her back straight, with a faint light shining in her eyes, "I, Ye Zhaoyan, is the only daughter of the general's mansion. , not afraid of hardships and dangers, it is my duty to revitalize the Ye clan and defend the country, how can I marry into the royal family for pleasure?"

As soon as these words came out, the audience was silent.

These awe-inspiring words made people think of the idea of ​​marrying into a family that Xueshi Zhong had just proposed. Perhaps Ye Zhaoyan was really willing to sacrifice his marriage for the sake of the Ye clan.

In this way, they looked down upon this daughter of Ye's concubine with a villain's heart.

King Qing's expression changed, as if something was blocked in his heart, he couldn't tell whether it was anger, resentment, or other emotions.

Ye Zhaoyan raised his eyes and glanced at Prince Qing, and pursed his lips lightly, "Don't worry, my lord, Zhaoyan didn't lie. The daughter of the Ye family would rather be celibate than marry into another house easily. The prince's heart, the daughter of the Ye family really Can't afford it."

After saying that, she bowed to Emperor Donglin and said, "Your Majesty, please grant the Ye family's refusal to marry."

Her actions obviously caught King Qing off guard, and he froze on the spot for a while, his face livid.

Everyone was in an uproar, whispering to each other, obviously did not expect Ye Zhaoyan to reject King Qing's marriage proposal so directly, it was a slap in the face in public.

What's even more embarrassing is that King Qing has always been known as a virtuous man, but he didn't expect to be so confused and fall on the daughter of a general's mansion.

In this way, he not only offended General Ye, but also made others laugh.

This marriage should have come naturally, but unfortunately, King Qing had some bad luck, and encountered such an unbelievable refusal to marry him for the first time in public, which was never expected by anyone.

Emperor Donglin's face was gloomy, and he couldn't see any joy or anger: "I will make my own decision on this matter."

He looked at Ye Zhaoyan, and couldn't help wondering if she was a woman, why she was stronger than Ye Wenxuan, she really deserved to be a grandfather and grandson!
If it were the noble girl next to her, even if she was forced to marry, she would still keep her dignity and dare not speak up.

Prince Qing stood aside in silence for a long time before he managed to suppress his anger, bowed his hands to Emperor Donglin and left.

After Emperor Donglin waved back King Qing, he sat on the dragon chair and kneaded the center of his brows. After a long while, he was reminded by the head eunuch that there were still two people who had not been rewarded.

"emperor……"

He looked at Kunyu's gloomy face, and sighed, "Princess Nanyue, I know that Nanyue has suffered a lot from Xirong iron riders in recent years, and I also feel sorry for Nanyue's situation. If you marry someone you like this time, I will definitely be the master for you, besides, I will give you a thousand taels of gold, a hundred pieces of cloth, several boxes of pearls and agates..."

After saying that, Kunyu raised her head slowly, and said softly: "Your Majesty, Kunyu has something to tell you, and I beg your Majesty to agree."

Emperor Donglin raised his eyebrows: "What's the matter?"

Kunyu took out a piece of paper from her sleeve and handed it to the Chief Eunuch.The head eunuch took a look and was stunned.

There is only one word on the paper, Zhuo.

Emperor Donglin looked at it for a moment, and his brows relaxed: "As a princess, you need the most outstanding family in Jindu to match her. Looking around, apart from the royal family, there are only two palaces."

Although King Zhuo is a king with a different surname, he is not as close as King Qing. He is better at obediently and obediently, but he is also a useful talent.

Seeing that Emperor Donglin's complexion had improved, the chief eunuch hurriedly echoed, "Your Majesty is wise."

A faint smile appeared on the corner of Kunyu's mouth: "But it's up to His Majesty to decide."

Emperor Donglin pondered for a moment, then smiled and said: "Princess really has a heart. Then let Zhuo Wang enter the palace to have an audience tomorrow." He made a final decision, "Let Nanyue Princess marry into Zhuo Wang's mansion."

　I was free very late, so I couldn't post it at a fixed time, and there may not be an update tomorrow.
