Murong Kai's indifference ignited the anger of Bei'an Emperor Su Jing like fire. He snorted coldly and said, "Do you know that Princess Jiaoyang is my most beloved princess, is..."
Su Jing's words came to an abrupt stop before he looked towards Murong Kai with a hint of anger in his eyes.
"Whether Princess Jiaoyang is your favorite princess or not, for the sake of peace and tranquility between the two countries, Your Majesty should be willing to give her up, right? Moreover, now Princess Jiaoyang's situation does not seem to be as Your Majesty said, that she is Your Majesty's most beloved princess."
The words were neither hurried nor slow, but very confident.
Bei'an Emperor Su Jing looked at Murong Kai with dark eyes, but he still managed to hide his emotions well under his cold face.
"Although I am only the third prince of the Great Zhou, my mother is the most beloved concubine of my father. The marriage between the most beloved children of the emperors of two countries can show the sincerity of the alliance between the two countries, right?"
"My father was willing to give up his most beloved son for the sake of peace between the two countries. How come Emperor Bei'an is unwilling to give up his most beloved daughter?"
Murong Kai spoke slowly throughout the whole time, but he easily forced Su Jing into a corner where he had no chance to resist.
"Third Prince, you are too arrogant."
Su Jing finally spoke, his words full of disapproval. He really couldn't like Murong Kai who was so aggressive.
“I am only speaking the truth. The people of both countries are longing for peace between the two countries, just like longing for rain after a long drought. But we never expected that Emperor Bei’an would be so trapped in his romantic relationship that…” Murong Kai was not at all bothered by Emperor Bei’an’s emotions, and his words were full of regret.
"I have already sent Princess Jinxiu to the Great Zhou. My desire for peace between the two countries is already known to everyone."
"Princess Jinxiu? She should be your favorite princess, right? She came to my Great Zhou with the heavy burden of the marriage between the two countries, but she kept saying that she wanted to marry the man she loved, and even said that the man saved her life. Although my Great Zhou wanted to establish a good story of an alliance between the two countries through marriage, it was unwilling to be the evil person who broke up the couple. So my father and your country's envoys negotiated with many parties before deciding to help Princess Jinxiu get married and sent me to Bei'an to ask for the princess' hand in marriage."
Murong Kai's words were always slow and unhurried, but Su Jinxiu's behavior, which he brought to the court today, with an attitude of helping lovers, was undoubtedly a slap in Su Jing's face.
Knowing that his princess already has a lover, he still sends her to marry between the two countries. Is this a marriage or an enmity
Now their Great Zhou does not care about Bei'an's perfunctory attitude towards the marriage and comes to propose marriage in person. If Emperor Bei'an does not agree, it means he is disregarding the peace between the two countries and does not want peace between the two countries. Then Emperor Bei'an, as a king, will probably be questioned by the people, and the court officials will also be more dissatisfied with Su Jing.
"You're talking nonsense. Princess Jinxiu is the most virtuous woman. How could she..." Su Jing instinctively felt that Murong Kai was talking nonsense.
"Virgin and virtuous? Your Majesty really doesn't know his own princess. How can a virtuous princess get along well with people in Zhenbei Pass of our Great Zhou? How can a virtuous princess communicate with the generals of our Great Zhou through wild geese? Your Princess Jiaoyang and the envoys have witnessed that letter with their own eyes."
Su Jing held his breath in his heart, but couldn't say anything.
What else can I say? These words are all based on real evidence, and the witnesses are all from Bei'an. This is not a frame-up by the people of Da Zhou, but my own Jinxiu. Really...
She actually has connections with people from the North Gate of Dazhou Town. She...
Su Jing felt uneasy, but he couldn't show it in front of Murong Kai. He adjusted his mind and looked up at Murong Kai.
"I still need to send someone to investigate the truth of the matter. As for Princess Jiaoyang's marriage, I still need to think about it. As you know, the queen just passed away. If I marry Ah Man far away, then His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will..."
