Ma'am, I was wrong

Chapter 19 Responsibilities

After the most distinguished members of the Da'an Dynasty were seated, the banquet officially began.

Because of Jiang Ruyin's relationship with the king of Nan'an County, she was a little closer to the front, so she could clearly see the people above.

Slightly raised his eyes, peeking up, the Empress had seen it before, but at this time Empress Xiao was wearing a court dress, and beside Empress Xiao was the emperor of the Da'an Dynasty: Your Majesty.

His Majesty is dressed in a court dress, obviously with a dignified and solemn posture, but he looks a little fairy-like.

A little further past is the eldest prince.

The eldest prince has delicate features, is dressed in white clothes that are more snowy, and is as gentle as a spring breeze, but when he looks at the Prince's Palace, he is full of jealousy and resentment, which reveals his ambition.

A little lower is His Highness the Crown Prince, and His Highness the Crown Prince rests his head slightly, no one knows what he is thinking at the moment.

His Majesty, who is immortal and strong, said in a deep voice: "I wonder who is the envoy of Mobei?"

Standing up from a place that had been neglected before, a person spoke with an awkward accent, with one hand hanging by his side and the other clenched into a fist in front of his chest, bowing his head and saying, "Return to Your Majesty, it's a humble minister."

Some women covered their mouths and chuckled when they heard the strange accent.

The corner of the emperor's mouth was raised slightly, as if he wanted to laugh too, but due to his status, he suppressed his smile.

The envoy of Mobei didn't seem to care much about other people's ridicule, and said to himself: "Your Majesty, I came here this time to make friends between the two gangs, and I was ordered to come here to ask for the most honorable princess of the Da'an Dynasty. I hope His Majesty will agree."

When Su Yan saw the envoys coming up, he directly asked the imperial sister to marry him, and he became cold in an instant.

Empress Xiao breathed a sigh of relief.

Su Yueming looked calm at this moment, as if nothing had happened, and when the things that he had been afraid of for a long time came, it seemed that they were no longer so important. Since he was powerless to change, why not let nature take its course.

All the ministers looked at each other in blank dismay, speechless for a moment, they had already prepared their speeches, but the frankness of the envoys broke their plan.

Marquis Zhongyong stood up straight, and said with a sneer, "Princess Tianjia, how can you marry as soon as you marry?"

The envoy ignored Zhongyonghou, "Before leaving, the Khan once said, 'If the princess is willing to marry, I hope that there will be no more wars between the two borders for the rest of my life.' I also wish your Majesty great blessings."

As soon as these words came out, there would be no more wars between the two borders, which meant that they would no longer have to worry about wars in the next few years.

The serious face just now began to loosen slightly, "This..." gently stroking the beard that had grown for a long time, with a very hesitant look on his face.

Empress Xiao turned sideways slightly, and whispered to the emperor's ear, "Your Majesty, why don't you agree!"

The emperor looked at Empress Xiao from top to bottom with a surprised look. He didn't expect Xiao to be so forthright. He thought that after a long time of persuasion, he was ready to fight a tough battle. At least some surprises.

"I never thought that Queen, you have such a broad mind, are you really willing?"

Empress Xiao said very firmly: "For the sake of the Da'an Dynasty, the ministers and concubines are willing."

Empress Xiao's extremely firm attitude made the emperor feel uneasy. Based on his knowledge of Empress Xiao over the years, he knew that she was definitely not a magnanimous person. Now that she is so magnanimous, she still abandons her daughter. Not like her either.

After a little hesitation, he said slowly: "The envoy has come from a long distance, and the journey is tiring. We will discuss this matter later."

Empress Xiao suddenly raised her head, her eyes became extremely sharp, and she was no longer as tender as before. Fortunately, she had been prepared, and if one plan failed, she would do another one.

Xie Shu has to go to get married, she knows too much, if she stays here, sooner or later disaster will happen, although she can hold on temporarily, it is not a long-term solution after all, for the sake of her daughter, she has to go no matter what.

The first confrontation passed without any risk.

Hall of Supreme Harmony.

The mighty general clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, I don't think it's very appropriate for Mobei to get married this time."

The emperor was carefully studying a booklet on how to practice elixir, and glanced at the person in front of him, "Oh? Ai Qing came to tell me, what's wrong?"

"I believe that, firstly, the marriage was done by a weak country; secondly, although the envoy from Mobei came to marry Her Royal Highness, he did not show any respect; thirdly, the whole family of the minister has been working with those thieves for generations. Based on my understanding of them, they will definitely not surrender so easily, I hope Your Majesty will think twice." After finishing speaking, the whole person knelt down.

"I don't think so. You can exchange one person for peace. You know what a rare opportunity it is." Putting down the booklet, he spread out the map, and pointed to a few places.

"You know, it is because of the war that the people in these places are living in dire straits."

General Wuwei was shocked, "Your Majesty, because of this, we must make them pay the price they deserve?"

The emperor scolded: "That's enough, I know your heart, I have made up my mind, the princess must make a marriage, this is her responsibility."

Stubbornly shouted, "Your Majesty..."

He suddenly raised his hand to pick up the cup on the table, threw it at the head of the mighty general, and said angrily: "I am the Son of Heaven, so if I say it, I can't let you question it, get out." Eyes widened, It's full of anger, bastard, he's the emperor, and everything is right.

"The minister obeys the order."

He stood up, turned around, walked straight out and knelt outside the hall, his hands clenched into fists, and the veins on his arms straightened.

Su Yan, who came to persuade his father, happened to see this scene, took out a handkerchief from his chest, handed it to General Wuwei, and said softly, "General, wipe the blood off his head, I will go..."

Reaching out to take the handkerchief, he interrupted Su Yan's words: "If Your Highness wants to persuade His Majesty, in the opinion of a humble minister, it's better not to waste your efforts. Your Majesty is determined to get married."

"The general thinks there's nothing wrong with getting married?"

A stern voice came from the hall, "Since you want to kneel, don't get up."

The mighty general showed a look of helplessness, and simply said: "Your Highness thinks there is no problem with getting married?"

Su Yan was thoughtful, "A marriage is the best way to recuperate now. The Cangzhou plague has not been completely resolved, and the displaced people have lost their homes. According to my palace, I can't fight against it even if I give everything I have."

"Your Highness is smart, how can you not know that refugees can also be used as a source of soldiers, and it is enough to rectify them."

He bowed to the mighty general, "Thank you general, I know." With a bright smile, even his steps became brisk.

"Your Highness..."

He was suddenly stopped, and turned around suspiciously, "General, what else is there?"

Hesitating to speak, General Wuwei finally chose to speak, "A man should do something and not do something in the world."

"What does the general mean?"

"Yu Gong, I don't want to start a war. The princess's marriage is indeed the best solution." His eyes seemed to dodge a little, but then he became firm, "But, Yu private, I don't think so. Women are human beings. It's not someone's appendage, but their own choice, and what they want to do."

"Perhaps Your Highness doesn't understand now, but I still want to tell His Highness that with your relatives, you will part with your homeland and your family. After ten years of life and death, you will never know your way back." She moved, but now, her eyes are already red, "Weichen's elder sister, when she was as old as the fifth princess, was sent to make a marriage proposal, and when she saw her again, she was already a cold corpse."

"It's been five years, but I still look forward to seeing you again, who knows..."

The mighty general was in tears at this time, "My sister once sent a letter from home, on which there were only twelve characters 'If only I had my own life', a man, he stands up to the sky, his head can bleed, but the body How can the responsibility be picked up by weak shoulders?"

"Your Highness, do you understand?"
