Chapter Seventy-Two: The Marriage at the Banquet

When she just walked out of the palace and was about to leave Qingyang Palace, she was stopped by the forbidden army in the palace.

I only heard their voices fluctuate without any ups and downs, like a routine tone, "Don't leave the palace." ”

When Su Miaojing heard this, she immediately frightened, "Bold, dare to stop this princess!" ”

I saw that the janissaries on the left did not smile, and his tone did not fluctuate, "The emperor has an order, tonight is the Chinese New Year's Eve palace banquet, in order to prevent people from taking advantage of the opportunity to make trouble, anyone who does not have an imperial warrant must wait until the banquet is over before leaving the palace." ”

When Su Miaojing heard this, her heart was full of grass and mud horses galloping, and she scolded in her heart,! Emperor Lao'er, count you ruthless!

Seeing this, Ziyan had no choice but to pull her and advise softly, "Miss, why don't we go back to the main hall first!" ”

Su Miaojing nodded, hooking her lips with a hint of complaint, "Then that's the only way!" ”

In the hall at this time, the emperor looked at the Duke of Qi with a hidden smile on his face, "Duke of Qi! ”

Hearing the emperor shouting to himself, he stood up respectfully, and his tone was in awe, "Your Majesty! ”

I saw Emperor Shen Ye's face full of deep meaning, and his tone was flat, but there was something in his words, "I heard that your family has three daughters, all of whom have already passed the age of retirement, can it be true!" ”

Qi Guogong (Qi Wei) replied politely, "Back to the emperor, the old minister does have three daughters, the eldest daughter Qi Xian and the second daughter Qi Jun are sixteen years old this year, and the youngest daughter Qi Juan has just passed the year of Ji Xuan this year. ”

The emperor was a little deep, and his tone seemed to have a hint of business, but in fact, he was oppressive, "In this case, I will find a good person to marry Aiqing's daughters, Aiqing is willing!" ”

When everyone present heard this, only a few people understood the reason why the emperor did this, and most of them were full of envy and jealousy when they heard this.

Shen Yunche understood that his father wanted to rectify the dynasty.

Qi Wei said in a flattering tone, "That minister should be grateful!" "There was no shock on his face.

Shen Ye was full of majesty, "The Duke of Qi listened to the decree, I gave marriage today, the eldest daughter of the Duke of Qi Guofu, Qi Xian, was married to King Jing, the sixth prince of the dynasty, as the concubine of King Jing, the second daughter Qi Jun was married to the prince of the dynasty as a side concubine, and the third daughter Qi Juan was married to the king of Yue of the dynasty as a side concubine, and chose a good day to get married at the same time. ”

When he finished speaking, everyone was shocked, and three women in one house married together, which has never happened since ancient times.

Hearing this, Shen Yunhao and Shen Yunche immediately got up and knelt in front of the emperor.

I only heard Shen Yunche's fierce and disapproving rebuttal, "Father, please take back your fate!" The son already has a princess, and he doesn't want to marry any other woman, and he hopes that his father will be perfected! He made a big knock.

Shen Yunhao's tone was extremely resistant, "Father, please take back your fate, my son is unwilling to marry a woman I don't love, please take back my father's will!" ”

The two spoke in unison.

At this moment, Su Miaojing, who had gone out, walked in. She didn't hear clearly outside the temple just now, give marriage, what marriage?

Su Miaojing's face was full of doubts, looking at the two kneeling in front of the emperor.

I saw that everyone on the field looked at Su Miaojing, some with sympathy, some with schadenfreude, and some with expressions of watching the play.

Su Miaojing walked to the place where she was sitting, and looked at the two kneeling on the ground suspiciously, oh! No, there are three people, and there is an old minister, who seems to be called Qi Guogong.

I only listened to the emperor's resolute tone, "I have decided this matter, no need to say more!" Stand down! ”

I only listened to Qi Guogong's humble and awe-inspiring tone, "Thank you Your Majesty for giving the little girl a marriage!" The ministers should share the worries and solve problems for the emperor and smear the liver and brain of the country! ”

Su Miaojing didn't know what to hear, so she glanced at the fourth prince Xuanwang next to her, and said in a suspicious tone, "What's wrong?" What just happened? ”

King Xuan Shen Yunxiao saw that she was still in an ignorant state, and explained to her, "My father gave her a marriage, and gave the eldest daughter of the Duke of Qi to the sixth brother as the main concubine, the second daughter as the prince's side concubine, and the third daughter to the ......" Speaking of this, he stopped.

Seeing him like this, Su Miaojing calmly took his words, "I gave King Yue as a side concubine, right?" The tone seems to be questioning, but it is certain.

The reason why Su Miaojing is sure that even if the emperor wants to give the king of Yue a concubine, it will definitely be a side concubine, after all, I have become the concubine of the king of Yue, he will not be so confused, degrade me, and offend my father, after all, my father's prestige in the army is unshakable, and he is still needed.

Su Miaojing felt that the emperor should be preparing to weaken the influence of the Duke of Qi in the court. As one of the founding ministers of Chengguo, Qi Guogong was born with the emperor as if he was dead, and now although he only has the title of Qi Guogong, he still has many old ministers in the court. Moreover, he also has in his hands the armory, as well as the power of salt transportation. A few days ago, he was busy with his daughter's marriage, in order to win over the ministers of the DPRK and China. If the emperor gives a marriage contract today, then he will be put to the end of his desire to collude with the ministers of the court and the central government at will, and he can only do it according to the emperor's wishes.

The emperor gave a marriage contract, indicating four points, one is a warning, warn him, I already know your ambitions; the second is to let him take a stand, you can only be loyal to one master, that is me; The third is a warning to everyone in the court, don't think that I don't know what you think in my heart because I am on a high seat every day, I have a way to deal with you, and do not challenge my authority; The fourth is to divide his influence in the court, so that he cannot collude with the courtiers at will.

The fourth and most important point is that if you say that the emperor gave such a marriage contract, doesn't that increase his power? Actually, otherwise, it depends on the object of his marriage, these three marriage objects are all hard bones, the prince is extremely powerful in the current dynasty, and the same is true of King Yue, only King Jing has no power. At that time, no matter which side Qi Guogong supports, he will not be able to take advantage, is the prince so easy to be at the mercy of others? As for the other two, King Yue is also a lord who will not be easily controlled, King Jing has no power, his mother was only the daughter of a wealthy businessman, and the emperor would marry his mother for military salary, so his mother's family is also weak. So even if he marries his daughter to him, he and King Jing won't be able to make any waves at that time.

Shen Yunxiao saw that she was so calm and calm, and she didn't seem to care. He couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you a little angry, or jealous?" ”

When Su Miaojing heard this, she smiled slightly, and asked rhetorically, "Is it useful to be angry or jealous?" Could it be that he can influence the emperor's decision? ”

Shen Yunxiao shook her head and said no.

Su Miaojing smiled, "In that case, then why should I bother to be angry or jealous." ”

When Shen Yunxiao heard her say that she was so irrelevant, she really wanted to pry her head open to see what kind of structure she was in. Hearing that her husband is going to marry someone else, she can still speak in such a calm tone, and she is probably the only one in this world! Shen Yunxiao thought to herself.

After the emperor finished speaking, his tone was resolute, "My will has been made, and no one can change it, otherwise there will be no forgiveness." After saying this, he glanced at the hall, especially after seeing Su Miaojing, there was a deep warning in his eyes, as if he was giving her a warning, and it seemed to be a wake-up call to everyone present.

Shen Yunche heard his father's decisive tone, and knew that there was no room for maneuver in this matter.

He knelt down and looked at Su Miaojing, with a deep sense of guilt and apology. He wanted to change his father's decision, but he was wrong, and no one could change his father's decision.

Su Miaojing looked at her parents and brothers, and when she saw that their faces were full of worry, I smiled at them and signaled that I was fine.

When I got married to the Yue Wangfu, I knew that there would be this day soon, but I didn't expect this day to come so soon.

My father always said that he didn't want me to be involved in the whirlpool of the court, but since the moment I was married by the emperor, I have been caught in this whirlpool. I have struggled desperately at the beginning, but I still can't escape, since this is the case, I might as well accept it and let myself live happily. I just hope that I can live a good life and give people good medical treatment, as long as I don't object to treating the sick and saving people, they can make any trouble, whatever they want.
