Chapter 18: Marriage and Becoming King (3)

Emperor Xia said: "King Yu is the most outstanding of my princes, and the position of concubine is also vacant, but he has been stationed on the frontier all these years, and it is too bitter and cold, so he will inevitably be wronged by Jin Qiao's girl, but it is ...... How does Aiqing see being the king? ”

Although Emperor Xia asked from big to small, it seemed that Shen Ye really chose it, but listening to Emperor Xia's tone, Shen Ye understood that Emperor Xia's candidate was the third prince to become king.

After all, after becoming a king, he is the crown prince, and it is impossible for Emperor Xia to give the position of the crown princess to Shen Jinqiao.

Become a king, the weakest and most mediocre of all princes.

If these courtiers are allowed to choose, as long as it is not the one whose status is really bad, it is estimated that no one will choose to marry their daughter to the king.

What Emperor Xia wanted, these courtiers could more or less guess it, it was just an imperial power technique, he wanted to use Shen Ye's power to pull up the weakest King Cheng and balance the power of several princes.

Shen Ye has seen King Cheng a few times, whether it is his appearance or talent, he can only be said to be modest, not good or bad, how can he be worthy of his beautiful and delicate daughter?

He wanted to refuse, even if Jin Qiao married a poor scholar, it would be better than marrying a useless prince, and he would inevitably have to suffer from the struggle for imperial power at that time.

But what's the use of thinking about it now? This is an arrow on the bow, and there is no way back.

In an instant, thousands of thoughts and countless reluctance turned into sighs full of heart.

"Your Majesty knows, Weichen is the most precious Jinqiao, and she is reluctant to marry, but Your Majesty's marriage is Jinqiao's blessing, and Weichen thank Your Majesty for her grace."

Shen Ye wanted to go back and ask Jin Qiao if she was willing, but Emperor Xia was interested, so she was willing?

After all, he wants to marry, compared to King Fu and King Ming, become the king of the mean, maybe the days will be more stable, with his father in one day, he can protect Jin Qiao from being bullied, if he marries King Ming or the prince or something, he, the Marquis of Pingnan, may not be able to protect her.

Coming out of the imperial study, Shen Ye had an extra marriage decree in his hand.

Prime Minister Wei walked behind Shen Ye, looked at him for a while, and then snorted coldly and walked away.

rejected his son, but was calculated by Emperor Xia, and got such an unsuccessful wreck as a king, and he couldn't live for his own evil.

Shen Ye looked at Wei Sheng's back, and coldness flashed in his eyes, King Cheng is not as talented as Wei Beishuo, but in comparison, he would rather Jin Qiao marry King Cheng than choose Wei Beishuo.

Shen Ye went home with the holy decree, and after going back, he went to the study, and stood alone in it for a long time, his face was tired, and his body was stiff.

But he also knew that he couldn't hide from anything, so he got up and washed his face to see Jin Qiao.

Shen Jinqiao was still tinkering with her money-making headdresses, Shen Ye didn't understand, but watching those gold and silver leaves turn into beautiful beads and hairpins in Shen Jinqiao's hands was indeed very pleasing to the eye.

"Daddy, why are you here?"

Shen Jinqiao looked up and saw Shen Ye standing at the door, slightly surprised, got up to greet him, looked at his table, and smiled embarrassedly: "It's a little messy, don't dislike it, dad." ”

Shen Ye walked in, picked up a hair crown and looked at it, the workmanship was very fine, and it was not much better than the treasures in the palace: "The craftsmanship is good." ”

After speaking, he handed over the bronzing scroll in his hand: "Look at this." ”

Shen Jinqiao didn't know what it was, so he reached out and took it, and after opening it and reading it: ...... This...... She had to take her time.

Shen Ye said angrily: "Today, Wei Sheng's dog thief asked His Majesty for marriage, but he didn't know that His Majesty had already planned it, I rejected him, and His Majesty took advantage of the situation to push the prince out, but I didn't expect that what he liked the most was actually to become a king." ”

The latter words need not be said much to understand, under the imperial power, these courtiers have no right to refuse.

"Daddy, my daughter knows."

didn't make trouble, didn't cry, looking at Shen Jinqiao's sensible appearance, Shen Ye felt even more uncomfortable, this was his most beloved daughter.

Shen Ye left, Shen Jinqiao took the holy decree, and he couldn't say a word for a long time, marry, or become a king, the prince who doesn't seem to have any characteristics.

She knows that her marriage is not autonomous, she doesn't care who she marries, and she doesn't particularly want to marry anyone, become a king...... That's it!

Let Yuzhu send the holy decree back to Shen Ye, which is to be placed in the study for offerings.

Yuzhu left, Shen Jinqiao looked at the things on the table, and wanted to continue to do it, but suddenly felt a little tired: "Fu Mom, put it away." ”

----

Wei Beishuo knew that Prime Minister Wei Cheng was going to propose marriage, so he rushed back immediately after finishing the matter at hand, but saw Prime Minister Wei Cheng drinking tea in the garden, and hurriedly went up, expecting it: "Dad, is it done?" ”

The old god Wei Sheng lifted his eyelids in the presence: "What's the hurry?" ”

So it's done?

Looking at his son's eager appearance, Wei Sheng said angrily: "It didn't work out, it was put on a table by His Majesty, Shen Jinqiao was given to King Cheng, and the holy decree was taken back by Shen Ye." “

"Become a king?" Wei Beishuo couldn't have imagined that he would lose to King Cheng: "How could it be him?" ”

King Ming and the crown prince, he thought that Shen Jinqiao should be one of them, but he didn't expect that he was actually the most cowardly king, is he worthy of it?

"Your Majesty has already made a plan in his heart, waiting for just an opportunity, but he ignored it for his father, although Pingnanhou is idle, but once there is turmoil, Pingnanhou can hold 100,000 military power, and now His Majesty is in the prime of life, so it is natural to balance the forces of the DPRK and China, and Pingnanhou will put it in Chengwang, but it is the most suitable."

Wei Beishuo didn't want to accept it, because King Cheng was weak, because King Cheng was incompetent, so he became the best candidate? Is there any heavenly reason?

"Don't be unwilling, this is just forced by the situation, until the end, everything is uncertain, and it will become the king's virtue, even if Shen Jinqiao gives it to him, he can't keep it."

"I know that." Wei Beishuo clenched his fists, even if Shen Jinqiao was given marriage to King Cheng, he would not give up, what he wanted, he would get it by any means, but he thought that it was cheaper to become King Cheng now, and his heart was really depressed.

Wei Sheng put down the teacup: "The marriage is not in a hurry, but the Liangzhou side is getting more and more chaotic, we have to find a way to suppress it, otherwise, I am afraid that it will lead to fire." ”

Wei Beishuo nodded: "I understand." ”

Wei Beishuo left and went out, although he had already made a decision in his heart, but the expected marriage was in vain, so his face was not good, and he was air-conditioned that no one should enter.

Wei Beiyan was just about to go out, Wei Beishuo walked in front of him, and he didn't give him a look, as if he was air.

Wei Beiyan tugged at the corners of his lips, isn't it just air? In this Prime Minister's Mansion, Wei Sheng and Wei Beishuo are father and son, good and bad, conspiracies and tricks, the two of them are discussing and plotting, and the others are outsiders.
