Chapter 53: Miracle Proposal (1)
After Xuanyuan's miracle words were finished, the entire imperial study fell into a deathly silence, the three of them didn't know what they were thinking, and Xuanyuan Qing's expression was obvious, with a look of anger.
No matter how much he indulges the sixteenth brother, but this matter is not child's play, the master marrying an apprentice has never been a thing since ancient times, even if there is no guarantee that there will be no in the future, but the sixteenth brother cannot set this precedent, this is not only related to the reputation of the Celestial Empire, but also the happiness of the sixteenth brother.
If he really married Chao Xiwu, the infamy on his body was enough for the two of them to not be able to raise their heads, and he couldn't watch all this happen.
Unlike Xuanyuan Qing, Xuanyuan's promised face was very calm, but in his drooping eyes, there were waves, and all kinds of expressions took the opportunity to be under his eyes.
He didn't understand why Uncle Huang wanted to marry Xiwu, didn't he know that the relationship between them was intolerable? Even if he marries Xi Wu, he will not let Xi Wu marry the emperor's uncle, which will only ruin Xi Wu. In this situation, he can only pray that his father will not agree to the emperor's uncle.
"Sixteenth brother, there is no way out of this matter, I don't want to, I have to be responsible for you, and I also have to be responsible for my father's entrustment, I don't want to return to the west, I have no shame to see my father and mother." Xuanyuan Qing refused very decisively.
Xuanyuan Miracle slowly stood up from his position, stared at Xuanyuan Qing with a pair of eyes, and said after a long time, "Brother Huang, whether you agree with this matter or not, I will marry Xi Wu." ”
Hearing this, Xuanyuan Qing looked at Xuanyuan's miracle with a little hatred, and didn't understand what kind of demon the sixteenth brother had, and he was so interested in Chao Xiwu. Even if Chao Xiwu's appearance is peerless, but there are more beautiful women than her in the world, and it is not nothing, the sixteenth brother has to dance towards the tide for nothing.
"Uncle Huang, my nephew also advises you to think twice, after all, such a thing has never happened before." Xuanyuan also stood up and said very respectfully.
Hearing this, Xuanyuan Miraculously glanced at him coldly, looked at Xuanyuan Qing, and said, "Brother Huang, I just want to inform you today, I just don't want Wu'er to be wronged, so I will come to ask for the holy decree, and it doesn't matter if you don't give it." ”
It is true that it is the same for him with or without a holy decree, but it is different for Wu'er, and having a holy decree to marry represents a kind of glory, and it can be regarded as a warning to some people, so that they can break off their undeserved thoughts.
Xuanyuan Qing and Xuanyuan Promise were a little shocked when they heard this, and Xuanyuan Qing sighed helplessly, and said to Xuanyuan Promise, "Prince, you go out first, I have something to say to your imperial uncle alone." ”
Xuanyuan promised to be a little unwilling, he didn't want Xi Wu to marry the emperor's uncle, but because of his father's order, he had to reluctantly walk out of the imperial study.
When only Xuanyuan Miracle and Xuanyuan Qing were left in the room, Xuanyuan Qing asked, "You should tell me, why do you have to dance towards the tide, there are more women in the world who are better than her." ”
Xuanyuan miraculously lowered his eyes and began to think about Xuanyuan Qing's words. What is he doing for the wrong thing? This question he had never thought about was a matter of course in his heart. It seems that since Wu'er said that he would marry him, he decided that Wu'er would be his wife.
When the Emperor Brother Zhilu Dao deliberately promised to marry Wu'er to Xuanyuan, he was indeed a little angry, and he was angry for the first time, and it was for such a seemingly simple thing. He couldn't figure out the reason, and he didn't understand what that emotion meant.
"Brother Huang, if you really bless me, you will give me and Wu'er a marriage, and if you don't want to, I will force it." The miracle of Xuanyuan changed the subject.
He didn't know how Lu Dao would answer Xuanyuan Qing's question, he couldn't understand why he had to dance, as long as he thought that his future wife would be another woman, he had a chill, and even a strong disgust in his heart.
Xuanyuan Qing no longer pressed each other tightly, took the initiative to take a step back, and said, "This matter, you give me time to think about it, and I have to think about it again." ”
Xuanyuan's miracles do not force Xuanyuan Qing, he does not lack this time, and now is indeed not a very good time. He nodded, agreed with Xuanyuan Qing, and said, "Brother Huang, even if you don't agree, I don't want you to do anything that I hate, let alone think about dancing." ”
Hearing this, Xuanyuan Qing was a little crying and laughing, is he such a sinister person? Is it the bad guy who specializes in dismantling mandarin ducks? Xuanyuan Qing touched his face, he felt good about himself.
"I know the way, you can rest assured." Xuanyuan Qing said very weakly, looking at Xuanyuan's miraculous eyes, full of helplessness and pampering, that kind of pampering is the doting of the elder brother to the younger brother.
"Brother Xie Huang, I'll go first." The miracle of Xuanyuan had achieved its purpose, and he was ready to leave.
Just as he was about to turn around and leave, Xuanyuan Qing stopped him, "Sixteenth brother, go back after dinner with me." ”
Xuanyuan shook his head, turned around very decisively and said, "I still have something to do, I'll bring Wu'er with me when I'm free." ”
After speaking, he didn't give Xuanyuan Qing any chance to keep him, opened the door and walked out, walked out of the door, his footsteps were by Xuanyuan's side as promised, stayed for a second, and then continued to walk forward.
Looking at the back of Xuanyuan's miracle slowly disappearing, Xuanyuan's brows were still tightly wrinkled, he pursed his lips and turned around and walked into the imperial study, looked at Xuanyuan Qing, who was buried in government affairs, and wanted to ask for a while, whether his father had agreed to the request of the sixteenth uncle, but he didn't know what Lu Dao said.
Just when Xuanyuan promised to be entangled, Xuanyuan Qing said while reviewing the folds, "Prince, what do you have to say, when did you become such a mother-in-law?" ”
Hearing this, Xuanyuan promised before saying, "Father, have you agreed to the emperor's request?" ”
Xuanyuan Qing put down the fold in his hand, and at the same time put down the pen, and looked at Xuanyuan promise with a pair of eyes, wanting to see what he was thinking in his heart. Retracting his eyes, Xuanyuan Qing slowly stood up from his position, walked to Xuanyuan Promise, looked directly into his eyes, and said, "Prince, do you still like to dance towards the tide?" ”
Xuanyuan promised to look at Xuanyuan Qing's inquiring eyes, and a little unconsciously wanted to put aside his eyes, and replied very simply, "Yes, Erchen wants to marry Chaoxi Wu." ”
Hearing Xuanyuan's promise to admit so decisively, Xuanyuan Qing smiled with satisfaction, but soon this smile disappeared, he looked at Xuanyuan's promised eyes, brought a few dignified and exhortations, and said, "Promise, put it in the past, if you like Chaoxi Dance, it is understandable, after all, such a woman, there are indeed many likes." "But now you'd better take your thoughts, you have to remember that you will be the emperor of the Celestial Empire in the future, and you will have to bear the burden of the entire Celestial Empire, and I don't want to see you troubled by the love of children. I used to intend to give you a marriage because she was your uncle's apprentice, and she had a peerless martial art that could protect you. ”
"Even if her martial arts were abolished, I never gave up, let her be your crown princess, do you know what it is?"
A trace of doubt flashed in Xuanyuan's promising eyes, he thought at first that his father would let Xi Wu be his crown princess because of the new reason of Chaohuo, but now it seems that it is not.
"Forgive the retainers for being stupid."
"Hehe... It's normal for you not to know the way, and I'll tell you right now that I wanted to sit with your crown princess in the morning because of your imperial uncle. You also know the Tao now, your imperial uncle is the master of the iceberg, and Chao Xiwu is his apprentice, maybe he will be the next generation of the iceberg in the future. ”
"Whether she is in the future or not, it will be beneficial and harmless to us Celestial Empire. But now you have to cut off your thoughts, your imperial uncle is obviously interested in Chaoxi Dance, and I don't like to see you and your imperial uncle compete for a woman together. Xuanyuan Qing's last sentence obviously carried a strong warning.
"Father, my sons don't understand, what is there to be afraid of this iceberg master?" There was a faint disdain in Xuanyuan's promising tone.
He didn't understand why his father was afraid of an iceberg, could it be that the entire Heavenly Empire couldn't compare to an iceberg?
Hearing this, Xuanyuan Qing was not angry, after all, these things were only known to the emperors of previous dynasties, but he didn't want to tell Xuanyuan so early now, and it was already the limit to be able to tell him so much today. The rest of the things will depend on him, after all, he will take on the entire Celestial Empire in the future, and if he can't pass this test, he is not worthy of being the emperor of the Celestial Empire.
"Prince, there are some things I can't tell you now, that's all I can say, I hope you don't disappoint me."
"The son will definitely not disappoint his father." Xuanyuan promised to say solemnly.
Xuanyuan Qing waved his hand and said, "You say goodbye, I want to be alone and quiet." ”
"The retainers retired."
After Xuanyuan promised to leave, Xuanyuan Qing was left alone in the imperial study, he looked at the dragon chair in front of him, and sighed softly, everyone in the world thought that this throne was easy to sit on, but they didn't know the danger of sitting in this position. If it wasn't for the sixteenth brother's insistence, how could it be his turn in this position, I just hope that Cheng'er will not live up to his expectations.
Xuanyuan promised to leave the imperial study and returned to the East Palace, although he is now the crown prince, he still lives in the palace, owning his own palace.
Sitting in his seat, Xuanyuan promised to have been pondering, and he could hear what his father said today, and at the same time, he also told him that the iceberg was far from what he imagined. Maybe there is something involved between the iceberg and the royal family that he doesn't know, so his father said that.
However, he was really a little unwilling to let him give up the Chaoxi Dance, after all, such a peerless and graceful woman is rare to see in the world, but compared to the throne, she is very small.
As the protagonist of this matter, Chao Xiwu didn't know anything about the scene that happened in the imperial study, but leisurely recuperated in the General's Mansion, after three days of cultivation, plus the ice lotus that Xuanyuan miraculously gave her, her injuries have been healed by more than half. In order to conceal Chaohuoxin's injury, she still pretended to be seriously injured in the past few days and lay in bed all day.
There are always people who like to see her down-and-out appearance, Chao Ximeng is one of them, and she will run here every day, not tired at all.
