Chapter 340 No Choice (The Finale)

Yi Xue came out in a hurry, and saw that the courtyard was bustling with excitement, followed by carriages, all covered with red cloth, with many big red flowers on the horse's head, beaming with joy.This is much more formal than coming from the northern barbarians.

Yi Xue didn't dare to go in yet, looked around in the corner of the garden, and asked Liu Jin, "Liu Jin, who is here?"

With excitement on Liu Jin's face, he said with a smile, "Miss, it is Mrs. Xiao Bufan who brought the matchmaker here."

Yi Xue felt happy in her heart. Now she is 13 years old, and she is still in the prime of life. She will be able to get married in a year at most.She is still looking forward to getting married, but she is still a little nervous about who she will marry.

Yi Xue didn't know what was going on with Mother's side, so she had to send Liu Jin to have a look.

"Sister, you are really happy," Wen Ruonan said with a smile, but there was a hint of disappointment in her eyes.

Yi Xue saw it, and took Wen Ruonan's hand, "Sister, don't worry, you will find Mr. Right in the future."

Wen Ruonan forced a smile and said, "Both of you belong, and I'm the only one left. What can I do in the future?"

Xia Yunwan smiled faintly, she was satisfied with Master Ban Ren. Although there was a war during this period, he still sent letters from time to time, detailing his situation, and occasionally gave some novelty things to him. Xia Yunwan made her feel warm in her heart.

In the afternoon, the outer courtyard was still there, and the people from Beiman and Xiao's family were still there.From time to time, Liu Jin would come in and talk about the situation over there.

"Miss, the Prince's Mansion and Beiman are now in a quarrel, and the struggle is inextricably linked. Everyone wants Miss to agree to this marriage," Liu Jin said proudly.

Yi Xue has a headache now, the two families are going to fight, and she really can't help it.After a while, Mrs. Zhang came in with Mrs. Xia.Yi Xue rushed up to meet her and asked, "Mother, what's the matter?"

Mrs. Zhang said with a smile, "Now the two families are not willing to give in. Yixue, I originally wanted to agree to the prince's mansion, but this northern barbarian can't be offended. Now I just let you make the decision. Tell your mother, what are you going to do?" Which do you like?"

Yi Xue thought for a while and said, "Mom, I have two conditions. Whoever can do it, I will agree to it."

Mrs. Zhang nodded, "You say"

Yi Xue said, "Mother, although our family has a little money, but the family is poor, so I don't want to leave home, the first thing is the son-in-law"

"Zuo son-in-law?" Zhang was taken aback, and said, "Isn't that bad, Yi Xue, both of them are princes and nobles, wouldn't they make the world laugh at them?"

Yi Xue shook her head, but she was thinking in her heart that she wanted to find a partner who loved her. If she really loved herself, she would definitely not pity the rich and powerful.

"Mother, you don't have to worry about this, if they don't agree, what if I stay with mother until I grow old?" Yi Xue said with a smile, she didn't know whether this condition would scare away the prince's mansion and the northern barbarians.

"Yixue, you're like this... hey, forget it, let's talk about the second one." Mrs. Zhang was a little melancholy, because Yixue's condition was too harsh.Although she hopes that Yi Xue will marry a good family, it's no big deal to have a son-in-law.What Yi Xue said was right, the family still couldn't do without Yi Xue, so it would be good for someone to come and be his son-in-law.But the point is that neither of these two characters is simple.

Yi Xue looked at the smiling Mrs. Xia, gritted her teeth and said, "Mother, the queen and the noble concubine are fine now, and the murder case of our Zhang family has not been rehabilitated, so the condition is that whoever can make the Holy Majesty declare redress, I will marry him." "

"Yixue, it's unfair to the eldest prince." Mrs. Xia immediately saw the key.

Yi Xue nodded. Of course she knew that Xiao Yu's family had the greatest influence in the Tang Dynasty, and now that they had made great achievements in suppressing the rebellion, the Holy Majesty might have to consider their request.And it is impossible for An Wuya to ask the Emperor of Tang Dynasty to do something in the capacity of another country.

Yi Xue was furious that Xiao Yu had promised her that she would have an understanding of the Zhang family's bloody case.But now many days have passed, the Holy Majesty did not do anything to the Queen and Concubine You, and Xiao Yu did not come back from Nanping Prefecture.This matter cannot be left alone.

"Auntie, mother, this matter is settled. Tell them my conditions. If I can do it, I will naturally agree. If they don't want to, I won't force it," Yi Xue said firmly.

Mrs. Zhang looked at Yi Xue with pity, took Yi Xue's hand, and said, "It's really hard for you to think so much about the Zhang family."

Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Xia walked out, and Yi Xue sat down anxiously.Wen Ruonan and Xia Yunwan looked at each other, but they didn't know how to persuade Yi Xue.Yi Xue's two conditions are a bit harsh.Not to mention anything else, even the item of marrying into a family, I am afraid that people will not agree.How can the prince and the eldest son marry someone else's family? Isn't this a slap in the face?Xiao Yu is the only person in the third generation of the Wangfu, so how could the Wangyefu allow Xiao Yu to marry him?An Wuya is the eldest prince of Beiman, and he may inherit the monarch of Beiman in the future, how could Beiman agree to such an unreasonable condition?

Besides, this is the condition for the Zhang family to be rehabilitated. It seems that Xiao Yu should be able to do it, but in fact it is still relatively difficult.Since the Holy Majesty did not deal with the Empress and Concubine You Gui, he had his reasons, and the Holy Majesty would not be able to change his mind with just a few words from the Prince's Mansion.Besides, Concubine You Gui is still the daughter of the old concubine, even if she did something outrageous, the old concubine would not kill her.

So in this case, Xiao Yu and An Wuya are in the same position.

After a while, Mrs. Zhang, Mr. Xia and others all came back with heavy expressions on their faces.

"Yixue, I'm afraid you've overextended yourself this time, and they won't agree to your terms," ​​Master Xia said slowly.

Yi Xue said with a wry smile, "Since you don't agree, it's fine. If they don't agree, wouldn't anyone marry me?"

"You mean His Majesty?" Master Xia was taken aback and asked in surprise.

Yi Xue was noncommittal, so the only way to rehabilitate the Zhang family with the help of the Holy Majesty was to save the Zhang family at the same time.Yi Xue suddenly felt that she had become snobbish and hard-hearted.

"Forget it, leave it to fate, Yixue, you will find Mr. Ruyi in the future, don't be afraid, even if you can't find it, you can live happily with your mother," Zhang said with a sigh.

Yi Xue smiled lightly, but there was bitterness in her expression, "Mother, I know, you all go out, let me be quiet"

Seeing Yi Xue's bad expression, everyone walked out.

Yi Xue took out a statue of a little girl riding a little tiger from her bosom, which was the first gift Xiao Yu gave her, and took out the Supreme Token from her bosom, which was given to her by An Wuya.Seeing these two things, she wanted to cry inexplicably.

If they really leave themselves, these two things will go with the wind.

……

More than half a month has passed since the day of marriage proposal, and the atmosphere of the New Year is getting heavier and heavier, but Yi Xue can't be happy.There was no news from Prince's Mansion or Beiman, she smiled wryly, it seemed that the two of them would not agree to her terms, anyway, did everything depend on her own efforts?I still live freely.

However, just as the year was approaching, Beiman suddenly declared that Datang must redress the tragedy of the Zhang family, otherwise it would use force against Datang.All of a sudden, people in Datang were panicked and fearful.

Now that the Tang Dynasty has just experienced a war, how can there be any strength to start a war with the northern barbarians.But Datang would not remain silent, and immediately ordered Xiao Yu to send troops to the north to defend against the provocations of the northern barbarians.

But the Holy Majesty issued twelve orders in a row, Xiao Yu remained indifferent, and the entire government and the public were shocked.

When Yi Xue heard the news from Tianwu, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

On the eve of the New Year's Eve, the imperial court issued a decree: Abolish the empress and put her in the cold palace. Concubine You Gui was forced to commit a bloody case involving Zhang Taifu's family and died with a stick.

At the same time, both the old prince's mansion and Beiman sent dowry gifts, and Xiao Yu and An Wuya wrote letters expressing their willingness to marry.

………………

In the royal garden of the imperial palace, the Holy Master roared with a ferocious face, "It's too abominable, you actually colluded with the inside and outside to force me, come here, and send someone to capture the prince's family for me!"

"Your Majesty, please calm down, Your Majesty, please calm down," Eunuch Qin stood aside, weeping.Where did he not see that the Prince's Mansion used the force in Xiao Yu's hands to force the Holy Majesty to give up his thoughts on Wang Yixue, and now it has become even worse and asked the Holy Majesty to execute the Queen and Concubine You Gui.In fact, he knew that the Holy Majesty did not intend to deal with the Queen and Concubine You Gui, and both of them were holding the Holy Majesty's hand.

"Where is the third prince?" the Holy One asked coldly.

Eunuch Qin was in a cold sweat from fright. This is over, and the third prince might not be able to keep it.Ever since the old prince entered the palace that day, the Holy Majesty never mentioned anything about Wang Yixue again.But his personality became surly, and several old eunuchs had already been executed with sticks.

"Your Majesty, the Third Highness is now in the Prince's Mansion," Eunuch Qin said nervously with sweat dripping from his forehead.

"Bold, whoever allowed him to leave the palace, have you all betrayed me? Could it be that I can't even control a palace?" The Holy One roared angrily.

Eunuch Qin was so frightened that he didn't know what to say. Now that the prince's mansion holds the military power, and Ban Ren is married to Wang Yixue's family, the Holy One is now alone.

"Your Majesty, the current plan is to marry Wang Yixue to Xiao Yu or Bei Man, so as to avoid this festival," Eunuch Qin said cautiously.

The Holy Majesty snorted coldly, sat silently, and finally let the Buddha age a lot and said, "To whom? Xiao Yu's rebellious minister and thief, how can I relieve my hatred? The Northern Man is an enemy country. How can I send the god of agriculture to them? Didn't you dig your own grave?"

The Holy Majesty stood up, looked at the vegetation in the imperial garden, and suddenly felt that everything had become far away. If he hadn't planned to hit Wang Yixue at the beginning, would it be another situation?He looked blankly at Xu Bai's scenery, took a step forward, and suddenly his feet were empty...

……

Three days later, on the third day of the Lunar New Year, the Holy One accidentally fell into the water and died in the imperial garden, causing the whole country to mourn.All wedding celebrations shall not be held within one year.

Six days later, due to the early death of the first prince in the Tang Dynasty, the second prince was executed for treason, leaving the third prince.But the old prince's mansion knew that the third prince was not the Xiao family, but the Zhang family, so naturally he would not let the third prince inherit the throne.

After half a month of debate and compromise, the imperial court actually announced Xiao Yu as the fifth generation of the Great Tang Emperor, the old prince and General Xiao Bufan as Taizong and Gaozong, and the country's title of Great Tang remained unchanged.

Such a dramatic change caught the people of Tang Dynasty by surprise.

Less than ten days after Xiao Yu proclaimed himself emperor, the Beiman emperor abdicated and announced An Wuya as the new Beiman emperor.

Half a month later, Yi Xue received the dowry from An Wuya and Xiao Yu. She looked at the dowry in a daze, not knowing what to do.Because any one person is enough to guarantee the safety of the Zhang family, and there is no need to marry to ensure the safety of the Zhang family.

She doesn't know how to choose...
