Dayong Nu sentenced to death

Chapter 606 Promise, stay in Beijing

Countless eyes turned to Daxiangguo Temple.

The reclusive Mr. Yan was summoned into the palace, and after leaving the palace, he looked out of the city and sighed, and immediately sent several grandchildren out of the city to invite someone.

Judging by the posture, it seems to be allowed.

When the news reached Emperor Qianding, the old eunuch saw that he was staring silently, and whispered, "Your Majesty, rest assured, it is a good thing that the old Duke agrees. The son has always been filial and will never disobey his grandfather."

The hall was silent.

After a while, Emperor Qian Ding restrained his thoughts, and his voice was long and ethereal: "He is a stubborn person, and if he doesn't care about others, he will naturally obey everything, except for marriage... that is his heart disease, otherwise why would he develop such a cold heart?" The temperament of love."

"Could it be that... it's related to King Yuanzheng and his concubine?"

As soon as the old eunuch finished speaking, a cold light came over him, his back suddenly went numb, Zhan Su bowed his body and stepped back two steps, saying repeatedly: "This old servant deserves to die, it's the old servant who made a slip of the tongue, please forgive me, Your Majesty."

The solemn and cold gaze darted back and forth on him for a long time, before he retracted it, the old eunuch was sweating all over, he didn't dare to raise his hand to wipe it, and let the beads of sweat roll down from his forehead and sink into his underwear.

My heart went cold.

Emperor Gan Ding didn't notice this, and looked at the landscape screen in the inner hall, his eyes were dimly lit, "He can't avoid the fact that he is married at the age of marriage, it is better to let her marry him ..."

It's better for all parties...

The old lady listened to his murmur that seemed lost, and when she thought of the current situation in Kyoto, she couldn't help feeling a little scared in her heart, and buried her head even lower.

After all, His Majesty is even more afraid of the aristocratic family.

Allowing Yan Shizi to marry a woman who has no support from his mother's family can not only give an explanation to the two countries, but also avoid the marriage of the family, strengthen his strength, and earn a reputation as a compassionate minister.

It can be said to kill three birds with one stone.

Why not?
Not only he, the chief eunuch, thought so, but also the people outside, so when the phrase "there was a marriage contract" appeared in the hall, all the high-ranking people who wanted to marry immediately turned off their fire and settled down at the same time.

As we all know, the marriage is almost a certainty.

He just waited for Yan Shizi to nod.

And he, will he nod?
Three days later, Yan Yun walked out of the Daxiangguo Temple, put on the crown and entered the court. In the early court, he promised in front of the officials that he would marry Su's daughter as his wife, causing an uproar in the hall.

The news spread outside the imperial city at an extremely fast speed, and continued to spread around the capital and the north and south borders. Wherever it passed, everything was boiling.

Yan Jingyao and Le Shichuan entered the palace at the same time to seek evidence.

Not long after, the eunuchs in the palace arrived at Banyue Xiaozhu, and Su Rao changed clothes and entered the palace. Along the way, whether it was the servants in the palace or the people along the way, they all looked at her strangely.

"My humble minister, Su Rao, greet Your Majesty."

Su Rao finished her salute respectfully, and after hearing the phrase 'flat body', she stood up slowly, and before she could clean up her appearance, a question came from the hall: "Qing Su Ai, where is the token of thanking the two families for their engagement back then?" Where are you?"

The words were just a formality, the servant specially reminded her to bring it with her before entering the palace.

Su Rao took it out from her sleeve, "It's right here."

The old eunuch waiting beside Emperor Qianding walked over, took the jade away, and then went back to the case, picked up another piece of jade, and put the two together.

Whether it is the outline or the lines on it, they all fit together perfectly.

Emperor Gan Ding smiled when he saw this, and said to Yan Jingyao, "What do you think of the envoy?"

Yan Jingyao's expression changed, and after a while, he lowered his eyes and smiled and said, "I didn't know that Mr. Su had an engagement with the son, so I took the liberty to propose marriage. Please forgive me."

He nodded slightly to Yan Yun and Su Rao.

Yan Yun said calmly, "Your Highness is serious."

"It's just that if the two have a marriage contract, why didn't there be any rumors beforehand, and this prince made this joke out of desperation."

As soon as Yan Jingyao finished speaking, there was no answer in the hall for a while, the old eunuch looked around and said with a smile: "Your Highness does not know, this engagement was made by the elders of Yan and Xie families more than ten years ago, as time goes by, It was gradually forgotten."

"In addition, Mr. Su just returned to Shengjing, and his father's new funeral was less than a year ago, so the two families haven't negotiated to fulfill the contract yet, so naturally no one outside discusses it."

"That's it."

Yan Jingyao smiled regretfully, "It seems that my prince and Mr. Su really have no destiny, anyway, ruining a marriage is not something a gentleman can do, and the right to get married has never been mentioned, so let's forget it."

He looked at Emperor Qian Ding and asked with his eyes.

Emperor Gan Ding nodded with a smile, and said a few more polite words, then turned to the silent Southern King Le Shichuan, "Then what does the Southern King think?"

Le Shichuan pursed his lips and remained silent, staring at the woman in a plain white official robe embroidered with blue patterns who stood with her arms folded.

The fundus of the eyes is surging, and the undercurrent is endless.

He was so focused that he forgot that he was in the imperial study room, and there were other people beside him. Yan Jingyao and Emperor Qian Ding looked at him at the same time. What does this mean?
"Nanwang?"

Su Rao slightly raised her eyebrows and called out as a reminder.

Le Shichuan suddenly came back to his senses, seeing everyone was looking at him, he suppressed the bitterness in his heart and said: "When I first met Master Su, I saved my life. This king is very grateful, and I wish this marriage."

Whatever you want, my brother will do it.

Su Rao understood the meaning in his eyes, and her heart warmed slightly, but because of the presence of other people, she could only nod her head silently.

Le Shichuan didn't look at her anymore, and said to Emperor Qianding: "Your Majesty, we Xianyi people must repay their favors. This king originally wanted to take her back to Xianyi. I will respect and love her all my life. However, God's will tricks people, and it is hard to get what I want." , but my heart will not change."

"This king wants to ask His Majesty to testify. Today, Le Shichuan recognizes her as a righteous sister. The Xianyi Mission will send her to marry as her natal family. I hope Your Majesty will make it happen."

Le Shichuan clenched his fists and saluted.

Emperor Gan Ding was stunned for a moment, then looked at Su Rao and Yan Yun, Yan Yun nodded slightly without any objection, and asked Su Rao, "What do you think of Su Aiqing?"

"I am a humble minister, but it is up to His Majesty to make the decision."

"Okay, let's do it according to King Annan's will. It's just that the wedding date still needs to be discussed, and the various rituals and etiquette are also cumbersome. I don't know if the envoy can wait until then."

Emperor Qian Ding was quite satisfied with this result, and his attitude was very gentle. Le Shichuan said: "Xiao Wang rarely comes to Shengjing, and he is planning to stay for a while."

Seeing this, Yan Jingyao also echoed with a smile: "It seems that this prince will not succeed if he stays for a while, and it is worthwhile to witness the grand wedding of Prince Yan."

The two expressed their opinions one after another.

Anyway, the meaning inside and outside the words is saying, we have to wait for Yan Yun to get married before leaving, now Dayan and Dayong have a temporary truce, the most powerful rival is still detained in the enemy country, and the other brothers are not good enough, Yan Jing Yao naturally has time to spend here.

However, the political situation in Xianyi was temporarily stable. King Beishan also sent envoys to the north to disrupt the situation when he heard the news of Le Shichuan's mission to Shengjing.

It can't be said that there is something secretly planned.

They talked easily, but the courtiers began to get angry.
