Hearing this, Murong Kai couldn't help but look at Su Jing, his eyes were deep and determined.
"The courtiers will not agree to this, and neither will I."
"If you want to marry my daughter, this is the condition."
Well, Murong Kai didn't want to agree, but in order to marry someone else's daughter, he had to accept his fate. However, he said unwillingly in his heart: "Aren't you afraid that I will give your Bei'an to Da Zhou?"
"You have no interest in the throne of the Great Zhou." In the previous conversation, Su Jing had already made it very certain that he had no ambition for the country and the people, so naturally he would not think about expanding the territory for the Great Zhou.
"What if I'm interested in the throne of Bei'an?"
"You are going to marry my daughter. What is the difference between my son ruling the country and my daughter ruling the country?"
"Whoever inherits my Bei'an Kingdom will surely have my Su blood flowing in his veins. I have no reason to worry."
"You are quite open-minded."
"What can I do if I can't get over it? I'll cry and die anyway. But I feel relieved to leave Bei'an in your hands."
“I don’t even trust myself.”
"The children that the Great Zhou Empress Dowager has sent to teach will not be bad."
He has a kind character, a clear mind, and great wisdom. This was Qu Jingze's evaluation of Murong Kai when he came back to report. At that time, he had already thought of letting Murong Kai take over Beian, but he did not expect that Murong Kai left after failing to marry A'man.
Just as he was feeling disappointed, he saw him flirting with his daughter in the imperial study.
Now that he has come back to me, if I don't make good use of him, I would be letting myself down for all the time I have been thinking about him. What's more, he came to me on his own initiative and said he wanted to cooperate.
Before, he was worried that Xuan'er was too young and a girl like Ah Man couldn't handle the situation, but now that he was sleepy and someone offered him a pillow, of course he accepted it.
"Are you poisoned? What kind of poison?" Murong Kai already felt that he had already caught Su Jing's attention. He just wanted to change the subject. As for entrusting Jiangshan to him, he didn't want to do that.
Murong Kai was thinking about finding a way to detoxify Su Jing. At that time, he would protect his kingdom and leave with his beloved girl, living freely.
"If there is a way, my queen won't have to... So, don't waste your time. If you have this time, you might as well study the court affairs of our Bei'an. This mask of yours is good. Make another one with a different shape and wear it to court another day."
Su Jing naturally knew that his Bei'an was now a hot potato, so he was not in a hurry. He would leave this world one day, and his kingdom would inevitably be handed over to his children.
Otherwise, why would he endure the poison and insist on making arrangements in the court
"I can still give you advice in the harem, and I can also take care of Ah Man."
If he really has to go to court, he will have to leave the palace. Then, when Ah Man is not by his side, what's the point of wasting time in Bei'an
"Ah Man, you are not young anymore. It is not a good idea for you two to live under the same roof."
"We are already married, there is nothing wrong with that."
"An unmarried man and an unmarried woman living under the same roof, if your identity is exposed in the future, will Ah Man still have face? Since you like her, you should always think about her."
Murong Kai also wanted to consider Ah Man, but if the price of doing so was to leave Bei'an and the harem, he would want to be willful and not consider Ah Man, and comfort himself that they were already married anyway.
"You can take part in the imperial examination in a few days. If you pass the exam and become the top scorer, I will grant you a mansion and a marriage."
When Murong Kai heard the word "granted marriage", his originally resolute attitude suddenly fell silent.
Although he could tell Su Jing that he and A'man were already married, deep down, he still hoped to get the blessings and approval of both sets of parents, especially A'man. She should be hoping that her father could choose a son-in-law for her and wish her happiness.
