As soon as Xia Houqing's words fell, the court fell silent for a while.
Emperor Zong's face darkened completely, and even the queen beside him was stunned. Looking at Lou Qingwu, who had been downcast all the time, his brows frowned, and fortunately, his own emperor's son had cut off the emperor's marriage because of the Shangguan's girl's decision not to marry for three years, otherwise, if the second emperor Son, today is really lively. Qing Wu is a good child, but unfortunately, he is a disaster.
Originally, it would have been fine if King Ye or the third prince had married. Originally, she did not agree to marry far away. After all, she was unfamiliar with the place of life in Xiliang. She really owed the child, so when the emperor mentioned this, She had the ability to disagree, but the emperor's attitude was too tough, so she had no choice but to reluctantly agree. But now it seems that maybe the emperor's thinking is not wrong, and marrying far away is also a good way to stabilize the current situation.
The silence at the banquet was a bit scary, Xiliang Mubai who was dressed as a entourage on the seat twitched the corners of his mouth, he was just an ugly monster, what kind of night king and the third prince were blind
Shu Yunyan who was sitting in front of him also fell silent when he saw this situation.
Hearing Xiliang Mubai's sneer behind him, he thought of something, and looked back at him, "Which one of these ladies do you like?"
Xiliang Mubai was stunned for a moment, "What?"
"Aren't you unwilling to marry Lou Qingwu? Then choose one at random."
"Choose one?" Xiliang Mubai frowned, the girl he met in Changle Square suddenly flashed in his mind, but unfortunately he never found her, otherwise, such a beauty would be his goal. That's all, it's just a woman, whoever you marry is not married. Da Yan glanced around lazily, his eyes swept across the circle of official ladies and noble ladies, and finally fell on the extremely eye-catching Princess Zhaoxia, he can't be blamed, it is really in a circle of unremarkable women, Princess Zhaoxia's body is too ostentatious. She pointed lazily with her finger, "It's her."
"Are you sure?" Shu Yunyan's pupils shrank.
"It's her, it's her." Looking at it, she barely catches the eye.
Shu Yunyan nodded, stood up suddenly, walked to Xiliang Feiyue, bowed respectfully and saluted: "Emperor Zong, please listen to me."
"Oh?" Emperor Zong was worrying that no one would break the deadlock, and when he heard Shu Yunyan's words, he immediately regained his energy. "What does Prime Minister Shu want to say?"
"Actually, Yan came to Dongyu this time. Although he was married, he was entrusted by the Fifth Prince to ask for a marriage for him."
"Oh? Who is it?" Emperor Zong's heart skipped a beat. There won't be another one, right
"The Princess Zhaoxia of your country, a native of Xiahouyi."
"What nonsense are you talking about?!" Princess Zhaoxia was originally gnashing her teeth because of Feng Yege's words, but when she heard this sentence, she stood up abruptly, her eyes spitting fire: "I don't want to marry that fifth prince!"
As soon as Princess Zhaoxia said this, everyone's expressions turned ugly, especially Emperor Zong.
Prince Zong quickly pulled him down, "Your Majesty, please calm down, Yi Ren is just joking, and there is absolutely no intention of being disrespectful." Princess Zhaoxia wanted to speak, but Prince Zong glared at him, and closed her mouth unwillingly. After apologizing to Emperor Zong, he sat back in his seat, but his mood changed drastically in an instant.
Didn't you want that bitch Lou Qingwu to marry far away
Why did it suddenly become her? !
"Father..." With a pale face, she grabbed Prince Zong's sleeve, and Prince Zong gave him a warning look. Although he didn't want his daughter to marry far away, but in the current situation, he somehow had an ominous premonition. It is rare for the Night King to speak, the Emperor is afraid...
Emperor Zong's expression softened, "Prime Minister Shu, are you sure the Fifth Prince is asking to marry Princess Zhaoxia?"
"Yes, it can't be wrong. The fifth prince once saw the portrait of Princess Zhaoxia by accident. He was so shocked that he couldn't forget it. I heard that the minister is coming to Dongyu this time. He ran to the prime minister's mansion several times and wanted to help him. It is bound to marry Princess Zhaoxia, and I will ask Emperor Zong to complete it."
Emperor Zong was embarrassed. In this situation, it seemed impossible to let Lou Qingwu marry far away. After thinking about it, he could only give up his original idea.
"That's it. If this is the case, then I still want to ask Princess Zhaoxia's opinion. Zhaoxia, are you willing to marry Xiliang far away?"
"I don't… "
"Yiren is naturally willing." Prince Zong cut off the words before Princess Zhaoxia could speak. Although the emperor is asking at this moment, I am afraid that he has already made a calculation in his heart. Even if Yiren refuses, he may marry far away. Why bother to make the emperor dissatisfied. The emperor has been weakening his power in the past two years, let alone offend the emperor at this time . "Since ancient times, the matchmaker's words have been ordered by the parents, and the younger brother has agreed on Zhaoxia's behalf. The fifth prince of Xiliang has a heart."
"Hahaha! Alright, since that's the case, I'll let you draft the decree later."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Prince Zong dragged the pale-faced Princess Zhaoxia to the center of the banquet, thanked him, and hurried back to his seat.
Princess Zhaoxia has been in a trance from the beginning to the end, and she doesn't believe that her father married her with a single word.
But what happened, isn't it Lou Qingwu who is going to be married off
One thing has been solved, but there is still one headache to solve. Emperor Zong looked at the handsome man standing in the audience, and the third prince who was kneeling straight, and felt a headache. All the courtiers They are all watching here. If he refuses both of them, he will give up his excuses. After all, he just wanted to marry Princess Rende away at the last moment. Now someone proposes to marry him, but he refuses. Rubbing between his brows, Emperor Zong felt irritable. I don't know how the Lou family's prostitute made the night king and the third prince fascinated, and she actually caused trouble here.
The Queen didn't speak at the side, she didn't care whether it was the Night King or the Third Prince, as long as it didn't affect her prince.
When you speak at this time, say more and make more mistakes.
The queen on the right was silent, and the beautiful eyes of the concubine Mei on the left fell on Lou Qingwu inadvertently. She raised her charming eyebrows and eyes, and suddenly snuggled close to Emperor Zong. Her soft and sweet voice seemed to fall into Emperor Zong Xinhu: "Your Majesty, my concubine has an idea, I don't know whether to say it or not."
"What do you think?" Emperor Zong's face brightened.
Quemei lowered her voice and said in a low voice: "In this situation, if the emperor promises Miss Lou to the third prince, I'm afraid Ye Wang will feel uncomfortable and have resentment towards the emperor; if she promises to Ye Wang, I'm afraid it will hurt the emperor and the third prince." How about letting Miss Lou make her own choice?"
Emperor Zong's eyes lit up, that's right, why didn't he think of it, let Lou Qingwu choose by himself, it's fine.
No one can offend, and it also reflects his generosity.
