Chapter Ninety-Three: Marriage by Decree

The chief of the guard rushed over with a rolling belt. The Second Highness has a short temper, and everyone knows it, if you accidentally serve it badly, you will lose your head.

"What about people?" Pulo pointed to the empty bedroom, his eyes blood-red.

"People? People have always been there, subordinates ......"

"Poof!"

It's another sword, and the chief of the guard doesn't have to wait for the antidote, he just dies.

"Send someone to find me, and find it right away. If you can't find it, you're all going to end up like this. Pulo waved the sword in his hand in a rage. Next, the palace was full of people searching for the shadow of King Jiayang.

At this time, Jiayang had been secretly transferred by the undercover agents Liang Bin and Hao Feng who were lurking in the palace as guards delivering food.

The people guarding the door only knew that the king was terminally ill and couldn't get out of bed, and outside, the eldest prince was leading troops to attack the palace, who could still check every normal person who entered and exited the Jiayang dormitory?

Pu Luo searched the palace but did not find the shadow of the king, he knew that this must be Xiao Wenxuan secretly troublemaker. Seeing that the general situation was gone, Pu Luo led his personal guards to fight their way out of the siege and went straight to the northwest border of Di and Daming, and quickly sent a letter to King Ping, asking him for support.

Pu Luo Xing's army rebelled and was finally defeated, and Xiao Lin, the king of Ping, was also extremely disappointed in him. After decades of hard work and hard planning, he lost the best fighter by Pulo's carelessness at the last critical moment.

King Ping decided to abandon Pulo's arm and sent someone to keep Pulo out of the border. Pulo attacked inside and outside, and it didn't last long before he was captured by the general Collet.

The war subsided, and Jiayang solemnly invited Xiao Wenxuan to come to the palace as a guest. Xiao Wenxuan was invited to go, and Jiayang was grateful for Xiao Wenxuan's help, and expressed his willingness to marry Daming for generations.

Xiao Wenxuan's trip resolved a crisis, and even though Su Muling should come back in the future, Xiao Wenxuan politely refused Jiayang's retention and led his subordinates straight to Songjiang.

After walking non-stop for more than ten days, Xiao Wenxuan and his entourage finally arrived in Songjiang. He asked his subordinates to stay at the post station and went to Su's house alone.

Knocking on the door of the Su family, Xiao Wenxuan felt that the atmosphere was wrong. In the past, when he came, all the Su family greeted him with smiles. But on this day, it was obvious that the entire Su family was lifeless, and the people under them all lowered their heads and lowered their feet, for fear of disturbing anyone.

"Is the master at home?" Xiao Wenxuan asked as he walked inside.

"Go back to the prince, the lord is here." The butler answered as he led him into the hall.

"Is the eldest lady okay?"

Miss?

"Hey!" The butler sighed deeply.

"The prince still doesn't know? Miss...... The eldest lady went to sea with the master, but I didn't expect it to ...... Ay! ”

Xiao Wenxuan stopped suddenly, his face was pale, and he asked sharply, "What's wrong with the eldest lady?" ”

"The eldest lady went to sea with the master and encountered a storm, and fell into the water with Mr. Wei, who accompanied her, and her whereabouts are still unknown. The old man has been ill since then......"

Xiao Wenxuan's eyes were dark, his ears were ringing, he closed his eyes and slowed down, and stepped into Su Haoran's room quickly.

In the east room of the main hall, Ru Yan was waiting in front of the bed with her belly that was about to give birth.

Su Haoran was lying on the bed with half-closed eyes, only to see that his eye sockets were deep, his cheeks were fleshless, his hair was gray, and his face was bloodless. Originally, he was only about forty years old, but at this time, he looked like an old man with rotten wood.

Seeing Xiao Wenxuan coming, Su Haoran struggled to get up half of his body, looking at Xiao Wenxuan sadly and choked up and almost speechless: "You'an ......"

"Master Su." Xiao Wenxuan stepped forward to support him.

"Ling'er...... You'an, Ling'er is gone. She and Wei Shizi were swept away by the waves in order to save me, I should be damned, God has no eyes, it should be me who died, not them...... Ling'er is gone, what's the point of me still alive...... Woohoo......"

Su Haoran, a big man who stood up to the sky, hugged Xiao Wenxuan's arm and cried like a child.

Xiao Wenxuan endured his grief and patiently asked what happened......

“…… You'an, I'm sorry for Ling'er's dead mother, I'm sorry for you! Su Haoran almost fainted from crying.

Xiao Wenxuan silently endured the tears in his eyes and solemnly swore to Su Haoran to himself: "Don't worry, I believe that Ling'er will not leave us alone, I will go to her until I find her." After Xiao Wenxuan finished speaking, he bowed to Su Haoran and turned to leave.

……

In the Imperial Palace, Chengde Palace. After hearing Xiao Wenxuan's explanation of Di Guo and his entourage, Long Yan was happy.

"Okay, Yooan. You have made great achievements for the Ming Dynasty this time, and you can't help but prevent a crisis, and also strengthen the relationship between the two countries, and I want to reward you heavily. The emperor stood up happily and personally helped Xiao Wenxuan up.

Xiao Wenxuan did not thank him, but bowed his head and declined:

"The minister is doing his duty, and he doesn't dare to expect the emperor to reward him."

"You'an, how can you expect it? You deserve it. Well, what's the reward...... In this way, I will make you a prince. Given to the Prince's Palace. ”

His nephew was so capable, and it only took a few people to avoid a devastating war. The emperor couldn't help but be happy and sincerely proud.

"Your Majesty." Xiao Wenxuan knelt down on one knee.

"You'an doesn't dare to ask for credit, but You'an has something to do with the emperor."

"Rise up and say, if only I can do it." The emperor was still thinking about what title to give the prince a title, whether to continue to use the word "Ning" or start another one.

"If the emperor doesn't agree, you can't afford it."

The emperor suddenly felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere, and looked at Xiao Wenxuan's face, which had been expressionless, he sat down, restrained his smile and stared at him with a little seriousness.

"You say, if you can promise, I will naturally agree."

"Presumably the emperor also heard about the disappearance of Huai'an and Miss Su at sea."

Xiao Wenxuan's heart was sour when he said this, tears almost poured out, he paused, and forcibly suppressed the sadness in his heart.

The emperor looked at the bearded and haggard nephew in front of him, and waved away the people around him in distress.

"You'an, I've heard about Huai'an and the girl of the Su family, Huai'an's child is not a long-lived one. Miss Su...... You think it's a dream. ”

"The emperor has always treated You'an well, and You'an is a person who knows gratitude. If the emperor needs You'an in the future, You'an will die and serve the emperor. However, You'an now has an important thing to do, please ask the emperor for permission. ”

"You...... What are you doing? ”

Su Muling died, although the emperor removed a major problem around Xiao Wenxuan, but in the end, people's hearts are flesh and blood, not to mention that Su Muling was not happy with Xiao Wenxuan, and the emperor still appreciated other behaviors.

"Although Miss Su was swept into the sea, she wanted to see people in life and corpses in death, I don't believe she left like this, I want to find her!"

As soon as Xiao Wenxuan's words came out, the emperor was stunned, and he couldn't imagine that this child was a seed of infatuation like himself. I think if I had been persistent enough, I wouldn't have ...... Hey, it's all fate!

"How long are you going?"

The emperor knew that he couldn't stop him, and if he forcibly kept him, according to Xiao Wenxuan's current temper, he was afraid that he would never look back.

Xiao Wenxuan didn't expect the emperor to agree so happily, and it was useless to refute his words when he was ready to refute him.

"I don't know."

Xiao Wenxuan really didn't know that looking for Su Muling was just unwilling. But in the vast sea, not to mention Su Muling and Wei Huai'an, one is a weak woman, the other is a weak sick seedling, it is himself, how sure are he that he can survive?

"Okay, I'll ask Bai Yu to bring a few people to follow you, multiple people and multiple helpers."

Xiao Wenxuan did not refuse the emperor's kindness, and thanked him for his resignation and left.

On the way, he met a team of marriages, Xiao Wenxuan looked at the back of the groom through the window, and asked again, it turned out to be Yao Junnan.

Back at the palace, Li Feng, who Xiao Wenxuan stayed in the capital, came to see him and told him carefully what happened in the capital during Xiao Wenxuan's absence......

Before leaving, Wei Huaian gave his father Wei Yao an "order", asking his father to find a way to facilitate the marriage of Lu Qiaohui and Yao Junnan.

Wei Yao responded to Wei Huai'an's request for his only son, and immediately instructed Haiqing, a spokesman known for his vicious tongue, to impeach Lu Yinzheng. The reason is that Lu Yinzheng dislikes the poor and loves the rich, and Lu Yinzheng's daughter Lu Qiaohui has a skin-to-skin relationship with a man, but she rejected Yao Junnan's proposal and wants to marry her daughter who has lost her temperament.

Yanguan Haiqing usually sees Lu Yinzheng as unpleasant, and is worried that he can't find a reason to clean him up, and of course he exaggerates this information to the death.

When the emperor heard about this, he naturally wanted to ask, how did Lu Qiaohui say that she was still Princess Ning's alternative before.

Almost everyone in the capital knows that Lu Qiaohui fell into the water and was rescued, and in the court, there are people who have a holiday with Lu Yinzheng on weekdays, just to add fire and firewood to Lu Yinzheng.

The emperor was displeased, although this matter was a family affair of the minister, but since it was brought to the court, it was impossible not to stop it.

So the emperor made a "good person" and decreed the marriage, and helped them choose a date, and the marriage was completed on the third day of October.

Although Lu Yinzheng was unwilling, he could only receive the order and thank him.

Yao Junnan rescued Lu Qiaohui from the Lu family that day, he was selfish and wanted to use the Lu family's power to help him rise to prominence. On the day he rescued Lu Qiaohui, Yao Junnan wrote a letter to Yao's mother about it. Yao's mother didn't expect Yao Junnan to be scheming than his grandfather, and he actually climbed to the daughter of Shangshu.

Yao's mother was happy in her heart, brought all the household belongings that could be used, and hurried to the capital, and invited the most famous matchmaker in the capital to endure the pain and buy good gifts to come to the door to propose.

Yao's mother thought that as soon as she came to the door, she would be determined with the Lu family, but she didn't want Lu Yinzheng to say a bunch of grateful, but the family affairs were shirked on the grounds that Lu Qiaohui was still young and wanted to stay for a few more years.

After Yao's mother left, Lu Yinzheng secretly scolded: His daughter is going to be a princess, how can she cheapen Yao Junnan, a poor boy, for nothing.

Yao's mother's proposal was rejected, and when she was resentful and cursed that the daughter of the Lu family couldn't get married, the emperor's decree for marriage arrived.

The emperor gave marriage, which is a Longen that the Yao family has never imagined in their lives. Yao's mother and Yao Junnan knelt on the ground, holding the holy decree in their hands for a long time, and they looked at it many times with the holy decree, and they couldn't believe that it was true.

Yao's mother, who was overjoyed, hugged Yao Junnan and cried and laughed for a long time, and then began to look at the few pieces of silver in her pocket and began to worry. The emperor's marriage is a great blessing, but there is only one and a half months left before the third day of October, and it is a little urgent to prepare for the marriage in a decent and grand time.

Yao Junnan knew Yao's mother's worries, and persuaded her indifferently: Since it was the emperor's marriage, the Yao family would not be penniless, and Lu Qiaohui would have to marry her. Besides, the difference in strength between the two families is too great, I am afraid that if the Yao family sells the house and land, the dowry gift sent over will definitely not enter the eyes of the Lu family. Since he couldn't satisfy the Lu family, he simply didn't do anything, and he had how much money to do.

Yao Junnan's words won Yao's mother's heart, since the Lu family looked down on their own family, they broke the jar and made a fool of things.
