Chapter 39
The palace, the imperial study.

"Qi Aiqing has worked so hard this time, and once again made great contributions to me, Da Yue. After the Qi family army is reorganized, I will reward you for your merits."

Emperor Xuanzheng of Dayue closed the letter of surrender brought back by Qi Jiren, and said with a smile on his face.

"On behalf of the Qi family army, I thank the Lord for your kindness." Qi Jiren knelt down and saluted respectfully.

"Qi Aiqing, quickly excuse me." After finishing speaking, she went down to help her up.

Patting the thick shoulder of the courtier, he said with concern: "I haven't seen you for more than a year, how is Qi Aiqing?"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern. I'm fine." Qi Jiren said in a firm voice, "How about you, Your Majesty? Are you okay?"

"I'm still the same, it's just that I've grown older in the past two years, and I've gradually lost my strength. Thanks to the crown prince's burden, I feel much lighter, but..."

Halfway through the speech, Emperor Xuanzheng sighed, "It's just that the prince is not too young, so the candidate for the princess... Most of my other sons are already married, and those who are not married are just a few young ones. This prince of mine..."

After some words, Emperor Xuan Zheng paused and sighed again and again, louder and louder, as if he was afraid that others would not know that he was worried about the prince's lifelong event.

Qi Jiren raised his eyebrows thickly, and decided to watch his heart, pretending that he didn't hear anything, and didn't know anything.

Seeing him like this, Emperor Xuanzheng secretly scolded the old fox.

If the mountain does not come, only he will go!
"Qi Aiqing, I heard that Aiqing's granddaughter has been found, is it true?"

Qi Jiren understood that this was trying to trick his granddaughter.

Immediately, he said with a sullen face: "What the emperor said is true. The granddaughter of the minister has indeed been found, but... the emperor does not know that the granddaughter of the minister was abducted by kidnappers when she was two years old. She has been staying here for 12 years." That Shan Gou Gou was raised in that poor farmhouse, and his behavior is vulgar, far inferior to the noble girls in Beijing."

Hearing this, Emperor Xuanzheng laughed, "Aiqing just came back, I'm afraid I haven't seen this granddaughter yet, but I heard that although she was raised in a farm family since she was a child, she behaves like everyone else..."

"Even so, it's still far away..."

"This jade can only be made into a jade after being carved. Even the noble daughters in Beijing are not as knowledgeable and reasonable as they are when they are born. They have been carved before they have their current appearance."

Hearing this, Qi Jiren knew that Emperor Xuanzheng came prepared.

He understood what Emperor Xuanzheng was thinking, and what he did was just a restraint. Back then, his daughter almost entered the current harem, but luck was good at that time, when the border was in turmoil, and he was afraid that he would be distracted on the battlefield. Let it go.

After returning to Beijing after the rebellion, the daughter fell in love with the boy of the Ye family. At that time, after investigating his temperament, he hurriedly married his daughter.

Unexpectedly, he is quite old now, and he has no son to inherit from his knees. On the granddaughter who came back!

To put it bluntly, he is a princess, but who knows that the entrance to the palace is as deep as the sea. Although he is a great general of the town and holds the military power in his hands, he doesn't have much wish, the only wish is She is looking forward to the well-being of her only daughter.

Let the granddaughter marry into the royal family, almost without thinking, the daughter must be unwilling.

Just when Qi Jiren was thinking about whether Emperor Xuanzheng would stop trying to attack his granddaughter if he surrendered his military power, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came from outside!
After a while, Wei Yun, dressed in a dark brocade robe, came slowly.

After calling out, Emperor Xuanzheng smiled and said to his son: "The crown prince came just in time, and I am talking about your marriage with the general."

Wei Yun glanced at Qi Jiren next to him, her black eyes flickered slightly, and said calmly, "Is there someone to choose Father?"

Hearing this, even the ninth-five-year-old was stunned for a moment, and looked at his son in disbelief. In the past, every time he mentioned his candidate for the crown princess for marriage, he never declined for various reasons, but today, Not only did he not refuse, but he also asked if there was any candidate.

This is simply like the red rain in the world, my mother is going to get married.

After watching for a while, he saw that he was still expressionless and indifferent, and secretly wondered, could it be that he had heard wrong just now?
"Your Majesty." Reminded by his confidantes, Emperor Xuanzheng came back to his senses, coughed twice, and said: "The girl just found by Ye Guogong's mansion, General Qi's granddaughter, what does the Crown Prince think?"

When Qi Jiren heard that this was going to be forced, he quickly said: "Your Majesty, think twice, Your Highness the Crown Prince doesn't know, this granddaughter of this minister is rude and rude, she is really not worthy of His Highness the Crown Prince."

"Hey, Qi Aiqing, what you said is not a problem. It's not like the two of you will get married right away. As far as I know, the girl from the Ye family is only fourteen this year, and there are still two years before Jiji. During this period of time, I will work hard." Carving and milling, with such a good foundation, are you afraid that it will fail?"

"But……"

Before Qi Jiren could finish speaking, Wei Yun said calmly: "I will obey my father's arrangements."

Now, not only Emperor Xuanzheng was shocked, Qi Jiren was also extremely surprised.

"His Royal Highness..."

"However, Father, as the crown prince, the son is the heir apparent of a country. The character of the crown princess represents the face of Dayue, and also the face of the son. Miss Ye's return to Beijing soon, let's see if she is How about being able to afford the daughter-in-law of the royal family?"

Emperor Xuanzheng thought about it, and immediately made a decision.

The king of a country speaks his mind, and what he says is the imperial decree. If he does not obey it, he is resisting the decree.

Qi Jiren had no choice but to leave the palace with a heavy heart.

Looking at the hunched back of his old general, Emperor Xuanzheng sighed, and said to Wei Yun: "Qi Aiqing only thinks that I intend to restrain him, but he doesn't know, I never had such intention."

"Father has worked so hard, the general will eventually understand."

Emperor Xuanzheng waved his hand, "I understand Qi Aiqing's temperament to some extent. He insists on admitting death, that's all. If he insists on thinking like this, let him go."

After talking about what came to mind, he narrowed his eyes and looked at his son, "Yun'er, something is wrong with you today."

Wei Yun didn't move her eyebrows, and said calmly: "Isn't my father always worrying about my son's marriage? Today, my son agreed, but why did my father say that my son is not right?"

"This...you..." Emperor Xuanzheng couldn't say no to his son, and said angrily, "I can't say no to you, hmph!"

……

Qi Jiren returned to the general's mansion with a sullen face, when Tian Bo saw this, his heart skipped a beat.

The general came back from the palace, could it be that...

Immediately, Tian Bo became anxious, "General, but Your Majesty..."

Qi Jiren was about to say something, but swallowed it back, "Forget it, did Miss come back?"
