Chapter 150: Refusal to marry
"Your Majesty, the old minister thinks this matter is feasible." The confidant minister pondered and said, "If the princess marries, we can control Mulan Feng through the princess." β
Another confidant minister followed: "If the princess successfully gives birth to a boy, with the support of His Majesty behind her back, she will definitely be crowned the crown prince, and in the future, the emperor of the Damu Dynasty will have half of the royal family of our dynasty in his blood." β
The emperor still had some concerns, "The princess is innocent by nature, but she is afraid that she will not be able to fight the other concubines in the Mulan Wind Palace." β
The confidant minister disagreed, "The identity of the princess is there, who dares to be disrespectful to her?" Besides, as long as Your Majesty arranges more clever eunuchs and palace maids to marry, if the princess doesn't understand something, they will naturally give an idea. β
The emperor pondered for a moment, agreed with his head, and ordered his confidant minister to write a letter to Mulan Feng.
The emperor's movements, a eunuch wanted to please the little princess and sent a letter to her, but the eunuch was thoughtful and didn't say anything else, only that the emperor she chose had agreed.
The little princess's joy is not trivial, "I know that my father loves me so much, and he will definitely agree to me." β
She called the maid and ordered in a stack, "Go and open the storeroom, find out all the clothes for the princess to see, and then find the embroidery girl, and make me a few sets of new clothes, by the way, I still have to make new jewelry, didn't the father of the previous son reward me with a set of rubies, let them design a set of heads." β
The little princess was happy, and the people naturally followed suit, opening the treasury and looking for jewels, and they were very busy, and the emperor knew about it and supported it, and gave more rewards.
Let's say that on Mulanfeng's side, he received a letter from the emperor of a neighboring country.
After reading the letter at a glance and ten lines, Mulan Feng couldn't help frowning slightly, marriage? said that he had already decided not to marry Qin Yu, even if he didn't have Qin Yu, it would be impossible for him to marry the princess of a neighboring country.
As smart as he is, he has naturally guessed the hidden dangers.
I wanted to reply to the letter immediately and refused, but who knew that the emperor of the neighboring country was skilled, and at the same time as sending the message to Mulan Feng, the wind blew from several henchmen and ministers of the Damu Dynasty, so these confidant ministers came to see Mulan Feng to discuss the matter.
Now that they already knew, Mulan Feng couldn't hide it anymore, so he showed them the letter and said, "I don't know what you Aiqing think about the marriage?" β
Several ministers glanced at each other, in fact, they had already discussed this matter before they came, and when they saw the emperor asking, one of the henchmen said: "Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that marriage is a good thing." β
"Oh?" Mulan Feng raised her eyebrows, and was very dissatisfied with this minister in her heart, but he didn't show it, but asked, "How to be good?" β
"The emperor has not been on the throne for a long time, the country is calm on the surface, but in fact, the undercurrent is turbulent, and the neighboring countries have been refusing to stop, and they are constantly harassing the border, which is inevitably a headache.
The henchman paused, and continued: "And the princess is from the royal family, not to mention her noble status, the etiquette rules must also be superior, worthy of Your Majesty's demeanor, and she can also be qualified for the position of the empress of my Damu Dynasty." β
The more Mulan Feng listened, the more she felt that it was not a taste, the princess was worthy of herself and could be qualified for the position of queen, could it be that in the hearts of this group of ministers, Qin Yu was not worthy?
"Do the other Aiqing have any opinions?" He asked several other ministers.
There is a person in it, listening to Mulan Feng ask like this, he knows that he doesn't really want to marry the princess of the neighboring country, and after thinking about it, he said: "There are pros and cons to marriage, the benefits have been analyzed, as for this disadvantageββ"
He peeked at Mulan Feng's face, "The neighboring country has always been ambitious towards me, and I hate to annex it quickly, and the princess marries me more than a marriage." β
Mulan Feng nodded, "Aiqing's words are reasonable. β
The minister was very excited, and suddenly remembered Mulanfeng's thoughts, and hurriedly continued: "Moreover, the emperor has already had a marriage contract with Miss Qin, and the people are also very supportive of Miss Qin. β
Mulan Feng finally heard what he wanted to hear, and he was even more satisfied with the minister, "That's right. β
He stood with his hands held high, looking at his confidants condescendingly, "If you marry the princess of a neighboring country, you will inevitably be sorry for Qin Yu, so this matter is over." β
Not allowing the ministers to speak, he instructed: "You Aiqing discussed a letter back to the emperor of the neighboring country, and said that his kindness was understood, but the two countries are one south and one north, and the climate and living habits are not the same, so I am afraid that the princess will be wronged when she marries, so forget it." β
Mulan Feng has always had a dark belly, and her eyes flashed, "One more thing, on the day of the princess's wedding, I will bring my queen to add makeup to celebrate her." β
The ministers looked at each other, thinking that you are not adding fuel to the fire, the woman of the other family mentioned the family matter first, she was already a head shorter, you refused not to say it, and also hinted that the family would marry early, and the princess would have to make trouble if she was a temperament.
What's more, they have already heard that this princess is quite popular with the emperors of neighboring countries, and they are afraid that she will not be angry.
In fact, Mulan Feng had already taken this into account, but compared to provoking the anger of the emperor of the neighboring country, he didn't want to be against Qin Yu.
Anyway, the relationship with neighboring countries is like that, no matter how bad it is, it can't get any worse, besides, the strength of the two countries is about the same, even if it is a fight, he is not afraid.
The confidant minister felt that this matter could be persuaded again, "Please think twice, this is a rare opportunity to reconcile with neighboring countries in a hundred years." β
Mulan Feng glanced at him lightly, "I already had a marriage contract with Miss Qin, what's the matter, is Aiqing only concerned about reconciling with neighboring countries, so let me be the one who has betrayed his promise?" β
What he said was a bit heavy, coupled with his cold voice and bright eyes, the minister couldn't help but tremble, and his companion hurriedly came to help him, "Your Majesty, in the past, Emperor Tiande had two queens on the left and right, and now the emperor can follow suit." β
The other ministers were immediately reminded and agreed, queen, who stipulates that there can only be one?
The queen mother can stand side by side with the two palaces, and the queen can also do it, and there is a precedent for this in history.
Mulan Feng was annoyed when she heard this, and said angrily: "That Emperor Tiande is a famous king of desolation, what do you mean, my virtue is similar to his?" β
Only then did the ministers remember that Emperor Tiande, who had two queens, was not very well evaluated in the history books, and his words such as absurdity and nepotism, ruthlessness, ruthlessness, etc., were simply tailor-made for him.
