Chapter IV: Resisting the Decree and Refusing to Marry (2)
An old woman who can't marry at the age of twenty and has no virtue or appearance? This Zongzheng's carefree mouth is really poisonous enough! In comparison, the Nine Emperor Princes were quite polite. Man Yao sneered in her heart, but her face was as calm as ever, and when everyone thought she would show something, she put down her hand and just stood there quietly, not saying anything, not doing anything. It's like an outsider, watching coldly and calmly. All of this was expected, but not before she could speak. Although she didn't know why Emperor Lin was so indulgent to Emperor Zongzheng, from the rumors and the eyes and expressions of Emperor Lin that she had just seen, she was sure that Emperor Zongzheng was special to Emperor Lin.
Emperor Lin twisted his eyebrows and reprimanded: "Don't worry, don't be rude!" Princess Rongle is the messenger of peace between the two countries, the marriage of the two of you is related to the hundred years of peace between Lintian and Qiyun, it is not a child's play, I have ordered someone to prepare a wedding robe, you go and change it quickly, and today you will worship on this hall and get married. ”
Zong Zheng squinted at him, there was no emotion in his dark and deep eyes, and he still said in a lazy tone, "When did I say that I was going to get married?" Don't you use the peace between the two countries to pressure me, this matter has always been your own opinion, thinking that as soon as the person arrives, the marriage will be a foregone conclusion, and I will have to marry? He raised his chin, hooked his lips coldly, and his evil phoenix eyes were full of coldness and firmness, clearly written: If he doesn't want to, no one can help him!
Emperor Lin's face sank, there was anger in his eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, don't think that I favor you, you can be lawless, in the face of national affairs, I will never condone you, this marriage has been decided, whether you agree or not, it is imperative!" Come, take the king down and change his clothes! "Although it is a bit hasty to worship the church like this, with a carefree temperament, it is impossible to let him marry according to the normal ceremony.
Zong Zheng looked at the group of guards walking towards him, and sneered: "His Majesty the Emperor wants to be tough? Even if you can force me to worship with this woman, what about the cave room? Do you want this group of people to watch as well, or do you just find someone to do it for you? ”
"Bastard!" Emperor Lin was extremely angry with him and shouted angrily.
"Your Majesty the Emperor!" Man Yao stepped forward slowly, everyone's eyes were immediately focused on her, she didn't realize it, her eyes were cold, she smiled indifferently, her tone was calm but firm, "Your Majesty, don't be angry!" As the saying goes, a twisted melon is not sweet, since His Royal Highness has no intention of marrying Rong Le, how can Rong Le force it! Although Rong Le is not married in his twenties, he has not yet reached the point where he needs to use his identity to force others to marry me. ”
Although she is not the real princess Rongle, her pride and dignity will not be trampled on at will, marrying the king as a concubine is not what she wants, she just wants to live a plain and free life. In this era of the supremacy of imperial power and the need for human life, if she wants to survive, she must know how to watch the situation, grasp the best time and use the chips in her hand to fight for what she wants. Like, freedom, even if it's only for a short time! If her identity is destined to marry a husband in this form, it is up to her to choose.
Zong Zheng squinted his phoenix eyes and looked at her, this woman not only dared to look at him, but also calmed down when he humiliated her, although her words were not angry, but they were soft and rigid, neither humble nor arrogant, and clearly a little arrogant, but she could completely hide her inner displeasure in the bottom of her heart, and she did not show any traces on the surface, this is not the performance of a ruthless and willful princess of a country who is favored by the emperor! He suddenly wanted to lift the beaded curtain on her face to see if the face behind the beaded curtain was also the opposite of what was rumored. But before she could raise her hand, she had already put it down, did her face match the rumors, and what did it have to do with him?
Zongzheng's worry-free red lips hooked slightly, "It's so best!" Please Your Majesty the Emperor to choose another person as a son-in-law for Princess Rongle, we are in the kingdom of heaven, I dare not say anything else, but the prince ...... Have. A sneer gently spread to the corners of his mouth, slowly rippling, extending to the cold peerless eyes, and gradually disappearing into the bottom of his eyes.
Emperor Lin's face changed because of his last words, and he coughed lightly, and said, "If the princess agrees, I will immediately draw up a list of all the young and handsome men who have never married a wife of the royal family and nobles for the princess to choose." "So far, as long as Princess Rongle agrees, this is the best solution.
Man Yao did not respond immediately, but swept around the people around, when she saw the Nine Emperor Princes, the Nine Emperor Princes were handsome, and their eyes were frightened, as if they were afraid of being chosen by her, she couldn't help but be a little funny, and then looked at Zongzheng worry-free, and saw that he looked like he had nothing to do with himself, as if he had finally gotten rid of a burden, she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows, and turned her eyes to Emperor Lintian and said: "Your Majesty the Emperor, for the sake of peace between the two countries, this matter is not impossible, but the world knows that Rong Le's trip and parents are to marry the prince as a concubine, And His Royal Highness is the preferred candidate of my imperial brother, now Rong Le has come to your country, and he was abandoned before he got married, Rong Le is just a woman, even if he is regarded as a conversation after dinner, it is nothing, but I am worried, if this matter spreads, the face of our Qiyun Kingdom is safe? What is the prestige of my royal brother as the king of a country? I am afraid that from now on, Qiyun Kingdom will become the laughing stock of the world because of Rong Le alone, and Rong Le will not be able to atone for his sins even if he dies! ”
Her words are sonorous and eloquent, obviously questioning, but it makes people sound reasonable and irrefutable. Zong Zheng sat up without worry, staring at her, his gaze was fierce, as if he wanted to see her carefully through the bead curtain. He spoke slowly, contemptuously, "So, princess...... Do you want to rely on this king? ”
Man Yao raised his head and said with a faint smile: "That's not necessarily!" ”
Zong Zheng raised his phoenix eyes, and there was a cold smile on the corner of his mouth, "Then what do you want?" ”
He smiled and walked slowly towards him......
