Chapter 62
"What the emperor said is true! Today's decree is good. Although it was not the emperor's original intention these years, the people have indeed become deprived of rice in their homes and food in the fields due to heavy taxes and natural and man-made disasters. Take it." King Xian also had a happy expression on his face.He thought that his brother, who always had to have a perfect plan before acting, would not be as decisive as today, but he didn't expect that a little girl of the Song family would inspire him to be so resolute.

Compared to King Xian's younger brother, Song Zhan actually knew Emperor Xiao Xuan far better than him.Today's "three-year tax exemption" decree seems to be the decree of the emperor because of Jingyue's poems, but it is not the case. I am afraid that the emperor, who is more scheming than anyone else, had this idea a long time ago. hit.

"Zhan Yuan, you have a good daughter! Tell me the truth, has that girl never been stupid?" With a smile on his face, the emperor squinted his eyes and asked who was honestly standing beside the virtuous king. Song Zhanyuan.

When Song Zhanyuan heard it, anger and helplessness flashed across his face, and he said without emotion: "The emperor is joking! Isn't the emperor better than anyone else to understand why the minister's precious daughter was so stupid! Could it be that my Song family still has With such a great ability, did the whole Tai Hospital follow suit?"

After the emperor heard Song Zhanyuan's words, all the joy and inquiry on his face disappeared, only guilt remained.He opened his mouth, wanting to explain something to Song Zhanyuan, but finally turned into a long sigh.

The Xian Wang hurried out to smooth things over: "General, it's not that the emperor doesn't believe you, let alone the Song family, but your girl has changed a lot. Even after seeing her in Qianhuang Mountain, this king also felt that you My daughter is really exceptionally intelligent." Now, the Xian Wang felt even more so, this Jingyue of the Song family must not be underestimated.

Song Zhanyuan still said calmly: "My lord was joking, Yue'er Fuda was able to save his life, and it was the ancestors of our Song family who took care of him. As for intelligence, my Yue'er has been smart since she was a child. Speaking of which, if it weren't for someone So troublesome, who would think that she is extraordinary at the moment?"

The Emperor and the Xian Wang think about it too. Jingyue of the Song family has always been the treasure of the Song and Su families. At a young age, she has already dabbled in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and she is more intelligent than children of the same age. If she hadn't suddenly Stupid, I am afraid that the emperor has already appointed her as the royal daughter-in-law.However, it is not too late now.

"Zhan Yuan, girl Yue is going to be a year old, right? Speaking of which, she should have been my daughter-in-law a long time ago, but——ah, the past is over, and now she has recovered from all her dementia and illness, and has become so knowledgeable and reasonable. Gentle and virtuous. Look, how about she and my Yu'er getting married?" The emperor felt that a good girl should not be snatched away by others, and he must prepare it for his son first.

Song Zhanyuan refused without even thinking about it: "Your Majesty, no! Yue'er will never marry into the royal family in this life!"

"Why?" This time it was the emperor and the virtuous king who asked together.

To be honest, both of them want Jingyue to become Xiao Chenyu's wife.Although at present, they don't know how capable Jingyue is, but based on the origins of the Xiao and Song families, if Xiao Chenyu takes that position in the future, there must be a prominent place in the harem reserved for the Song family. daughter's.

Song Zhanyuan said firmly: "Yue'er is not suitable for the royal family, and I, Song Zhanyuan, will never send my daughter into the palace. The emperor and the virtuous king should know that the harem is a battlefield where there is no smoke. I would rather take my wife and daughter to station in the bitter cold frontier than my daughter. Serve a husband with others, intrigue all day long."

The emperor and the virtuous king could hear the determination in Song Zhanyuan's words, but the emperor still didn't give up. He just wanted to see his cold son and his warm daughter together. Besides, this was what he and his beloved had hoped for. He also wanted to make up for this regret for the person under the spring.

Therefore, the emperor softened his tone and said sadly: "Zhan Yuan, I know that you have always had resentment towards me in your heart. At the beginning, I couldn't protect Wan'er, and your daughter became stupid because of a mistake. You should blame me. Yes. It's just that the grievances of the previous generation should not spread to future generations. I can see that Yu'er has a heart for your family, Yue'er. Besides, if too many things happened in the middle, the two of them should have been a couple in the first place. "

Song Zhanyuan knew that what the emperor said this time was sincere words from the bottom of his heart, but this time he would never hesitate to soften his heart, so he also said bluntly: "Your Majesty, I have never complained to the Emperor in my heart. That road back then was Senior Sister Wan'er chose it by herself. She has never regretted it, so I have never complained. As for Yue'er, the emperor's intentions were good, so I don't complain. It's just that King Yue is not a good match for Chen's daughter. Big-hearted, mad, cold-blooded and ruthless, although he is the talent of an emperor, he is definitely not the choice of a good son-in-law. I only hope that my daughter can find a good man who knows that she loves her and protects her all her life, so that she can live happily and peacefully."

After hearing Song Zhanyuan's words, the emperor's face was already full of anger, even the wise king's face was not good-looking.

"My son is so unbearable? Is he not worthy of your Song family's daughter?" The emperor's tone also became cold and hard.Although Xiao Chenyu has a bad temper and a bad reputation, he is still the son of the majestic king of a country, the King of Yue of the Xi Dynasty, how could he be said so badly!
Song Zhanyuan seems to have "eat the weight and made up his mind" and wants to fight the emperor to the end: "The emperor's atonement is not because the king of Yue is not worthy of the minister's daughter, but because the minister's daughter has no blessing. Your majesty, the loyalty of the Song family to the Xiao family does not need a long time." A marriage is to strengthen it."

"Zhan Yuan, after all these years, don't I still believe in the Song family? Do you really think that I want Yu'er to marry your family Jingyue to consolidate the imperial power? How hard and tiring Yu'er has been through these years, Don't you all know better than me? I sent him to Longshan cruelly, but didn't want him to become as cold as ice; Sizi was eager to take him back to the palace, but didn't want him to become a bloodthirsty demon overnight. These Seeing him shutting himself up in a heartless and ruthless world, can I not feel heartbroken as a father? This is the first time I saw him look at people with gentle eyes tonight. Although it was only for a short moment, it made me I saw hope. What I want is a caring son, Zhan Yuan, do you understand?" The emperor's words were heartfelt, and every sentence was painful, and his eyes were red when he said it.

Xian Wang is also heartbroken. Although Xiao Chenyu is his nephew, he has the same position in his heart as Xiao Chenliang.

Seeing that the emperor was already choked up, he even turned his back and didn't look at them, so he said to Song Zhanyuan: "Da Dazhanyuan, brother, he is sincere, so don't object so fiercely first. As the saying goes: 'Children have their own sons and grandsons. Fu." Brother Huang is just a proposal today. If Yu'er and Yue'er have no heart for each other, the twisted melon will not be sweet, but if they are happy with each other, don't we elders still have to beat each other. Okay. , well, we are all one family, don’t hurt the children because of the unforeseen things. Today is the time to drink fine wine, and there is a century-old wine in the king’s house, the three of us brothers have a good time to get drunk!"
