Chapter 684: Fulfillment

Xuanyuan Yao was still thinking about how to help the Xie family intercede, but found that the senior brother had been leisurely since he came back from the imperial tomb, and he no longer seemed to have the anxiety and worry he had before.

"Hey, why aren't you in a hurry? Did the third senior brother promise you to release him?" she secretly grabbed Song Yunzhou and asked.

Song Yunzhou raised his eyebrows proudly, smiled very brightly, and then replied mysteriously: "Is there anything I can't do, senior brother?"

When Xuanyuan Yao heard this, she rolled her eyes: "Look at your beauty! I don't know, I thought I was going to marry a daughter-in-law!"

"Hmph!" Song Yunzhou didn't refute, and snorted in a small nasal voice.

Two days later, a piece of news broke out in the morning that shocked everyone. His Royal Highness the Grand Prince will hold an enthronement ceremony on the 26th of the first month, and on the same day, Miss Zhang will be crowned queen and enter the harem. But because the first emperor had just died, the two had to wait three years before they could get married.

It's a strange decision...... The explanation given by the royal family is that Miss Zhang's fate is profound, and entering the harem can greatly prosper the country, but His Royal Highness the Great Prince is a person of great filial piety and wants to keep filial piety for the emperor for three years, so there will be such a decision.

When the elites of the Eastern Jin Dynasty saw such an explanation, they all felt a little hehe.

Although these three years of filial piety have existed since ancient times, it is not necessary to keep it, the eldest prince has to keep filial piety for the first emperor for three years, and it is obvious that he does not want to marry Miss Zhang.

And Miss Zhang's fate is profound, and entering the harem can greatly prosper the country's fortunes or something, which is even more nonsense! Who in the Manchu Dynasty doesn't know that the heavenly official of Si Tianjian is Prime Minister Zhang? This is simply because the Zhang family is afraid that there will be changes later, and they can't wait to send their daughter to the palace!

Of course, the Zhang family is now in power, and the officials can't afford to provoke each other. Therefore, even if they knew it in their hearts, no one would stand up to stop it, but they all praised this decision for being wise with a clear conscience.

Before everyone could digest this strange news, Song Yunjie shocked everyone again in the morning of the next day.

He decreed the marriage of Song Yunzhou and Xie Nianqing, and pardoned the death penalty of the Xie family except Jiang Li, and exiled them to the bitter cold land of the north to mine, and they were not allowed to leave there for the next three generations.

The Manchu Dynasty was in an uproar, these people did not dare to accuse the Zhang family with heavy troops, but they would not be polite to the Xie family, who had lost power. Especially the people on Prime Minister Zhang's side were even more indignant, asking if Song Yunjie's filial piety was faked, and even the murderer of the first emperor could be pardoned.

Faced with the doubts of the civil and military officials, Song Yunjie went crazy directly, and those who dared to stand up and beep would be demoted at least three levels in a row!

In his original words: "Do you need to dictate the decision of this palace? Does this throne also have to sit for you? When the Eastern Jin Dynasty was in danger, I didn't see you come forward, and now this palace is just pardoning a group of death row prisoners and letting them go to the north to work for their crimes, and you suddenly have so many opinions, are you going to rebel?"

In the end, the officials compromised, after all, this matter will not involve their personal interests in the final analysis, so there is no need to offend the emperor to death for this.

When Xuanyuan Yao learned the news, she couldn't help but look at the senior brother on the side, frowned, and said, "The third senior brother sacrificed a lot to fulfill you this time. ”

Yesterday, she was thinking, if Song Yunjie doesn't want to get married for the time being, he can completely postpone all the matters to three years later, why do she still promise the Zhang family to establish a future now?

It turned out that his previous concession was to fulfill Song Yunzhou...... If he doesn't agree to establish the queen now, the Zhang family will definitely take the lead in opposing Song Yunzhou and Xie Nianqing's family affairs, and he will definitely make a big fuss about pardoning the Xie family.

When Song Yunzhou heard this, he was silent for a while, and finally didn't say anything.
