Chapter 46: Marriage Giving (3)

After talking for a long time, King Xuan finally reacted and knew that he had led the topic to King De.

Xia Rui secretly breathed a sigh of relief, shook his head in his heart, but pretended to have just woken up, looked at King De, and said:

"Yes, Yu Ze, you are a few years older than Rong Hui, and you haven't married the princess yet, the affairs in the Dewang Mansion, if you always let the old housekeeper take care of it, it's not like it, you, you should have considered this matter a long time ago!"

Seeing this, King De's face became very unnatural, and he said very reluctantly:

"What the emperor said is...... However, the minister's brother's mind is on state affairs, and recently, the minister's brother has more things on hand, and the minister's brother does not have a favorite woman in his heart, so there is no plan in this regard for the time being, so let's focus on state affairs first! ”

When Xia Rui heard this, he stretched his tone and said:

"Of course, state affairs are important, and your life's major events are equally important, neither of which can be delayed! You have a lot of things on hand, even if you tell me that I let others do it, how can you delay the royal bloodline because of this? Aren't I sorry for my ancestors?! If my father had a spirit in heaven, he would blame me for not being considerate of my brother! ”

"This ......" When King De heard that Xia Rui had actually moved the emperor out, he couldn't help but turn pale.

On the other side, King Xuan hurriedly interjected as if he was afraid that Xia Rui would talk about him again. Come in, add oil and vinegar:

"Yes, yes...... The royal brother is right, the continuation of the royal bloodline is a big deal, fifth brother, you are diligent in political affairs, and you can't neglect this matter! Moreover, the imperial brother also said just now, we are the princes of the Great Xia Kingdom, and our status is noble, we can't just marry a bad-born woman as a princess, we must be particular, otherwise, others will gossip! Since, you just said that you don't have a favorite woman, why don't you ask the royal brother to be a matchmaker for you, this is more decent, fifth brother, what do you think? ”

When King De heard this, he looked at King Xuan's face, which was already as black as the bottom of a pot.

These two people, you say a word, I say a word, you are clearly playing a trick on yourself!

Just when King De was about to say something to refuse, Dugu Yexue, who had not spoken on the side, suddenly said:

"The Son of Heaven is a matchmaker, it is a supreme glory, it is something that ordinary people can't think of, His Royal Highness King De is really favored by the emperor, the emperor's grace is vast, although the minister has not been the emperor as a matchmaker, but he is also very moved!"

His sentence was to block back all the words that King De refused.

If at this time, King De still refuses, then it is not impossible to refuse the emperor's favor in public, pass it to the Imperial Historical Tower, and convict him of "disobedience to the saint".

King De hated it in his heart, but he couldn't show it on his face, so he could only endure his anger and look at Xia Rui smiling.

Here, Xia Rui said loudly: "It seems that I am the matchmaker today, but I am ...... Which daughter should be chosen to be the princess of King De? ”

King Xuan was about to answer, but King De had already taken the first step, stood up, and replied:

"Thank you for worrying about the emperor, this matter of Princess De, the ministers will settle it as soon as possible and report it to the emperor, and when the time comes, please ask the emperor to decide!"

King De was naturally unwilling, so he was calculated by Xia Rui, if the Queen Mother was present today, he would not be so isolated, however, who would have thought that Xia Rui was actually calculating him under the guise of celebrating Yun Xiao?

He guessed that the news of his concubine's pregnancy had leaked to Xia Rui, which was really hateful.

Xia Rui naturally understood King De's thoughts, since he had set up today's game, he naturally wouldn't give King De a chance to choose, he raised his eyebrows and asked:

"Yu Ze, you just said that you don't have a favorite woman in your heart, do you ...... Was it deliberately deceiving? ”

King De smiled awkwardly and said, "Of course not...... Your Majesty, you're too worried! ”

Xia Rui continued to ask: "Then what kind of affair do you have to lose your royal dignity?" ”

King De's face couldn't be hung up again: "It's not ......"

"Then I am a matchmaker for you, but you are not happy, don't you have an opinion about me?"

Xia Rui said this lazily, and then, picking up the teacup in front of him, he took a few sips quietly, obviously a little angry, and planned to ask King De in public.

King De raised his eyes and swept away, the people who came today, except for a noble concubine who was still his own person, the others were all Xia Rui's helpers, and there were guards from the Imperial Forest Army outside, and they couldn't even put a fly in.

In such a public view, it is not so much that Xia Rui wants to find fault with him, but that he wants to force him to marry.

After thoroughly understanding his current situation, King De had no choice but to give in:

"The emperor misunderstood, how could the younger brother have an opinion on the emperor? The emperor acted as a matchmaker for his courtiers, and his courtiers were very happy...... Just ......"

Before King De's words were finished, Xia Rui put down the teacup and interrupted:

"Okay, then I'll be the matchmaker for you today, hahahahahahahaha...... Do you have any good candidates to recommend to me? ”

At this moment, the noble concubine suddenly stood up, blessed Xia Rui, and said:

"Your Majesty, the concubines heard that the daughter of Li Shangshu of the Ministry of Officials is not only beautiful, but also very virtuous, and is very compatible with King De, so it is better to be a princess for King De!"

When King De heard this, he looked at this "own family" he thought he had, and he was so angry that his lungs were about to explode.

Is this noble concubine really stupid, or fake stupid?

The daughter of Li Shangshu of the Ministry of Officials?

Isn't that Li Shangshu the person who impeached Prince Min in public at the celebration banquet before Prince Min hanged himself?

Let him marry Li Shangshu's daughter as a princess, won't the queen mother be angry to death? !

How could the Gao family send such a stupid woman to Xia Rui's harem?!

But before King De could speak, King Xuan grabbed his throat and said loudly:

"Li Shangshu's daughter is good, and she is a good match for the fifth brother! Hahahahahaha......haha

When Xia Rui heard this, he turned his eyes to look at Yun Xiao and asked, "Queen, what do you think?" ”

Yun Xiao replied: "The concubine also thinks it's very good!" ”

Xia Rui nodded and said aloud to everyone:

"I think the same as the queen, pass on my will, the daughter of Li Shangshu, the secretary of the ministry, has both ability and political integrity, and is very compatible with King De, and gives King De the princess, so that the Ministry of Rites can prepare relevant matters as soon as possible, and set an auspicious day, so that King De can get married as soon as possible and extend the bloodline for the royal family of my Great Xia Kingdom!"

After speaking, he turned his head to look at King De again, only to see King De standing stunned, without receiving the order of thanks, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows again:

"Yu Ze...... Yu Ze ...... Yu Ze ......"

Dugu Yexue took the opportunity to "kindly" remind: "His Royal Highness King De is really overjoyed, and he even forgot to thank him!" ”

King De came back to his senses, however, everything was a foregone conclusion, he glanced at Dugu Yexue coldly, and reluctantly bowed his hand to Xia Rui:

"Brother Xie Emperor's Grace ......"

Xia Rui was very satisfied with King De's performance, he pointed to King De's seat with a smile, and said to King De as if nothing had happened:

"Yuze, it's all a family, you're welcome, sit down, don't let down this wine and food, our brother has a few more drinks today, hahahahahaha......ha
