Chapter 281: A Lifetime and a Couple
"It's all rumors, the emperor doesn't have to take it seriously!"
"That's good, I'll just say, how can the daughter of Mrs. Zhou's Fu family be so confused, for you to disobey my will!"
"Where there are people, there are rumors, if every word is true, the emperor is really busy!"
"But it's okay if she didn't marry Nanyang, if she really wants to get married, I can't explain to her father."
Although Taifu Zhou is the emperor, he is a courtier after all, no matter what he does, the emperor doesn't need to explain to him.
The reason why I say this is just to let everyone see that he is a good emperor who respects his teachers!
As soon as he said this, the ministers couldn't help but compliment: "The emperor respects the teacher and sets an example for the people, this is the blessing of my northern country!" β
"It is precisely like this, the emperor's love and filial piety will definitely be able to create another prosperous glory."
β¦β¦
The emperor listened to everyone's compliments, and his heart was happy, and after listening to it almost, he waved his hand and said: "Speaking of which, the county lord of Zhou has also reached the age of this week, and I heard the queen mother mention her marriage before, and she was very worried. β
When Wang Xiao heard this, he was immediately stunned, and he didn't know how to react for a while.
The fact that she has a marriage contract with Li Baoping can basically be said to be well known, and now even Zhou Qianqian, the party, has given up, but the emperor mentioned this stubble at this time.
Zhou Qianqian was also present today, and after listening to the emperor's words, she immediately stood up and wanted to rush out to refute the emperor's words.
Fortunately, Wang Xiao held her hand in time: "Don't panic, let's take a look first!" β
"It's all burning eyebrows, you still look at it, we don't stand up and say a word, who else do you expect!"
Wang Xiao's mind is in a mess now, and she is thinking of a way, when Zhou Qianqian said this, she panicked even more.
However, Li Baoping immediately knelt down: "The county lord of Zhou has a beautiful appearance and moon appearance, and he is the pearl of the Taifu's palm, and it is the honor of the emperor to point out to Weichen, but now that Weichen has a heart, I am afraid that he can't marry the county lord of Zhou." β
The marriage of these juniors in the palace is the queen mother's decision, and the emperor rarely interferes in these matters, all he has to do is make a decree.
Now he finally got up with the idea of getting married, but people don't agree?
The emperor's face turned cold: "Nonsense, I will not take it back!" β
Zhou Qianqian couldn't sit still anymore and ran in front of the emperor: "Your Majesty, the courtiers don't want to marry him!" β
"Why?"
"He has a fiancΓ©e, and he will only pass through the door when he comes back from winning the battle, and the courtiers will never be a third party!"
Wang Xiao couldn't sit still anymore at this time, and knelt down in front of the emperor: "Back to the emperor, the courtier is Li Shangshu's fiancΓ©e, and we already have a marriage contract!" β
The emperor twisted his eyebrows and looked at Wang Daoren: "What they said is true?" β
"It's true, please ask the emperor to fulfill it!"
Although they have already had a marriage contract, but the ancient Empress Ying served a husband, and he has already said it, let Li Baoping marry it!
It can be regarded as a reward for his meritorious service to the border this time, and his wife and concubine are in his arms, and he will be able to contribute well to Jibei in the future.
It's just that as soon as he said this, Li Baoping immediately said: "Your Majesty, the minister will only marry one wife in this life, that is, Wang Xiao, who will neither marry a flat wife nor take a concubine." β
It is normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines, in Jibei Kingdom, let alone the royal family, even the common people have three wives and four concubines.
Unless it is a very poor place like Lan Village, it will not be able to support one more wife, and there will be fewer three wives and four concubines.
Now Li Baoping can marry two, and they are both prominent and good-looking, he actually refused, not to mention the emperor, even the ministers were shocked, and they were all talking about whether he was stupid, and he refused such a good thing.
The marriage given by the emperor himself, although Wang Xiao and Li Baoping already had a marriage contract, even if she was unhappy, she couldn't refuse.
The emperor stared at him: "This is already my compromise method, don't take an inch!" β
He thought that if he made military merits, he could disobey the emperor's order?
He has just become a scholar, and he has begun to challenge his authority, and if he doesn't suppress his prestige now, what will happen in the future?
Wang Xiao stiffened: "Although the courtiers haven't read many books, they are most envious of the kind of love in the book for a lifetime, the two of us are in love, and the elders on both sides have agreed, and I ask the emperor to fulfill it, if he can't marry me alone, I'd rather not marry!" β
The emperor turned his gaze to Zhou Qianqian: "What about you! β
"Li Shangshu is young and promising, he is the spring boudoir dream of many girls in Shangjing, and the courtiers naturally admire him very much, but if the two want to become husband and wife, the most important thing is to be happy with each other, both of them regard each other as more important than their own lives, and can make any sacrifices for each other, and the courtiers ask themselves if they change the courtiers, they can't do what they do, and ask the emperor to fulfill them!"
The queen also came over at this time: "The emperor is kind enough to give you a marriage, what do you mean by this?" β
The queen said this not only to help the emperor, but also to suppress the Wang family, and the scene was embarrassing for a while.
Fortunately, at this time, Concubine Shu also came over, and persuaded the emperor with a smile: "The two young people are affectionate, the emperor will fulfill them, everyone will only pass this on as a good story, how can they question the emperor's dragon power?" β
"Li Shangshu has made great contributions to the country of Jibei, Miss Wang knows the general situation, and spontaneously organized so many military funds to the border, the people must be very optimistic about this marriage, and the emperor will give them marriage!"
When Concubine Shu said about the back, her voice was delicate and soft, and the emperor only felt that his bones were crispy, and it was better to be a strong man than to fulfill a pair of lovers.
He took a deep breath: "Since the two of you have already had a marriage contract, I will decree that you will be given a marriage and a mansion, and you can live in Shangjing in peace!" β
Li Baoping and Wang smiled on their faces, and kowtowed to the emperor together: "Thank you for the emperor's success." β
The news that Wang Xiao and Li Baoping were going to marry spread all over Shangjing and even the entire Jibei Kingdom in an instant.
Li Baoping is the champion of the new department, Wang Xiao is a famous doctor, and he has sent so many materials to the border, the combination of the two can be described as a match made in heaven.
Although many girls in the boudoir are also worried about Li Baoping, they are very self-aware, knowing that they don't know anything compared to Wang Xiaolai, what is the use of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and they can't help at all when the country is in trouble.
He can only stand by the side of women who can match him.
The holy intent came down the next day, not only sealed Li Baoping's official, but also gave him a marriage, and brought with him countless rare treasures, all of which were given to them for marriage.
