Chapter 14: Bold Decisions
King Ryan finally couldn't stand his temperament anymore and yelled at me, "You woman, how long are you going to mess around!" Even if I refused to marry before, today I was pushed out for such a ridiculous reason! Didn't I give you face, so you dare to act so willfully! β
However, I was not afraid at all, no matter how he lost his temper with me, I was like that, and I would not give in to King Ryan. I know that if I give in this time, I won't want to win every fight after that.
Although I still can't accept the fact that King Ryan has many concubines, I can still forgive him if he can stop looking for those women in the future, or even send them all out of the palace. At least until I accept King Ryan as my lifelong dependence, he will only have me as a woman.
When I can accept this fact, if there is a suitable woman, King Ryan and I can put up with her sandwiched between us, and maybe he will have a chance to take a concubine. It's just not right now, and this point must not be compromised.
Seeing that I really didn't admit my mistake, King Ryan finally couldn't stand me, turned around and went out, and really didn't come to my room at night. I didn't go out, but I could also imagine that the new princess angered the prince the day after she entered the palace, and fell out of favor as quickly as possible, and the princess's courtyard was about to become a cold palace, and words like this should have spread throughout the palace.
But I'm not afraid, if it's really like King Ryan said, he has developed feelings for me in the past two years, then he won't snub me because of this matter. If the Holy Marriage is really a thing that cannot be changed and cannot be refused, then the identity of my Princess Ryan will not change. If he wants to dismiss me with the seven rules, I'm afraid that the Holy One will be the first to disagree with it today.
However, I thought about things too simply, I was too naΓ―ve, I didn't have time to make the next plan, find a step for myself, the emperor's holy decree came, Zezhou was in turmoil, King Ruian was closest to Zezhou, and the saint appointed King Ruian as the general of Zhenwu and went to Zezhou to retreat from the enemy.
As Princess Ryan, I, naturally, had to go with King Ryan to receive the order, but his concubines didn't need it, so we got the news at the same time, and his concubines didn't know anything.
King Ryan took the holy decree with an unhappy face, let him go to the battlefield at this time, doesn't he want his life?
When he first won the throne, King Ryan was the youngest of all the princes, and his strength was also the weakest, so it was reasonable that he was defeated later. After the saint ascended the throne, he almost lost the power of King Ryan as soon as he made a move, otherwise King Ryan would not have been obediently captured.
In the past two years, King Ruian has recuperated in Ning'an County, and the old ministry has almost recovered, but it is limited to this, because when he arrived in Ning'an County, the day when he wants to return to the capital is far away, so the other ministers in the court are not optimistic about the prospects of King Ruian, so it is difficult for new people to join King Ruian's camp.
At this time, after receiving such a holy decree, should King Ryan take all his subordinates who he re-managed to follow him to the battlefield to die? If you don't bring your own people, then King Ryan is alone, isolated, the battlefield is changing rapidly, life and death are only between the first line, everything is uncontrollable, and King Ryan is a dead end.
When I saw King Ryan's expression that was even sadder than the death of his loved one, I knew all kinds of embarrassment and dissatisfaction in King Ryan's heart. I, who has never been able to stand the low posture of King Fuxiao of Ruian, instantly forgot about his many concubines, and my heart was full of distress for him.
"Lord Wang, you must go to Zezhou, don't you?"
Ryan nodded and did not speak.
I gritted my teeth, sticking out my head is a death, shrinking my head is also a death, don't I want to change my fate? This is an opportunity! Not only can I help King Ryan, but I can also give myself more ways out, why not?
Immediately, I asked Cai'er to go to Lu Mansion to call Lu Fengnian to me, I have something to say.
Although King Ryan was still worried about what to do, he still had the leisure to ask me what I was going to do, and I just smiled and didn't answer him immediately.
After Lu Feng came, before I could say what I was going to do, he said first: "Sister, you called me over on the second day of your marriage, I'm afraid it's not okay?" It's not in line with the rules. Is there anything important about you that you can't wait until tomorrow when you get back to the door to talk about it together? β
"I can't wait, it's urgent, I'll just tell you once, and the rest will be up to you. Listen, Fengnian, my dowry does not need to be classified as the public property of the palace, it belongs to my private property, it is my small treasury, and I have the right to make my own decisions and let me dispose of it. Now you will take my dowry and go into business, and make our business as big as possible. Since these dowries were brought to the palace with me, the parents at home naturally can't control it, and even if they ask, you don't have to explain anything to them. And it is much better to hand over my property to my own brother than to hand it over to these people I don't know in the palace, I and my parents can rest assured, presumably my parents will not interfere too much, you just let it go, and you don't have to report to me in the future. β
Lu Fengnian heard it a little foggy, and seeing that I was going to continue, he quickly interrupted me and said, "Sister, I don't understand, what does it mean not to report to you?" I don't tell you, who do I say? As you said yourself, your father and mother don't care about these things. β
"Next is the second thing I want to say, the prince received the holy decree, to go to Zezhou to defend against the enemy, I just married into the palace, the foundation is unstable, staying in the palace will only be bullied by her concubines, the people of the palace are not familiar with me, I am afraid that I have already been bought by those women, maybe they will unite with them to deal with me in the future, not to mention my food and clothing, if even my freedom of movement is interfered with, then my life will not have to pass, it is better to die headlong. So I decided to go to Zezhou with the prince. He led the troops in the barracks, and I found a house to stay in Zezhou City, which was good. β
As soon as these words came out, not only Lu Fengnian was shocked, but even King Ruian and the people in his house were also shocked, what kind of trouble is the princess going to make?
"Sister, you're not kidding, are you? Going to Jersey? That's the border of Qi State, it will be broken by Nanchu at any time, in case the enemy army pours into the city, then wouldn't it be very dangerous for you? Lu Fengnian asked a little nervously.
I smiled and said, "If I marry my husband, naturally wherever the prince goes, I will go." If you don't worry about me, just do the business in Zezhou, and when there is danger, I will go to your shop and evacuate with your people. β
