Chapter 314: First Come, First Come
Xiao Heng turned around when he heard the sound, wiped away the remnants of loneliness on his face, and raised his lips to salute: "The son is waiting for his father." I heard that my father was talking to the Marquis of Jingning, so I didn't dare to disturb.
The Emperor nodded, beckoning him to follow.
After sitting down on the kang, the emperor opened the chess jar: "It's just in time, let's go two games." β
Xiao Heng glanced at him and said, "Father seems to be in a good mood. β
The emperor smiled: "I can't say it's good, and I can't say it's bad." β
The good thing is that he is Qi Beiming's acquaintance, and he knows that Yan Tang is a rare good son.
The bad thing is that the DPRK and China are investigating the traitors, and several files have been found to be missing in the Qianjian hangar.
It's so easy to be an emperor, but it's just that there are many talented people in the court, and they share a lot.
As he spoke, he remembered again: "Why didn't you go around this beautiful spring?" β
"I haven't entered the palace for a long time, so I came here specially."
The Emperor smiled and nodded, then lowered his eyes.
Xiao Heng looked at the desktop for a while, and said: "Father, the son also wants to get married, and I want to ask my father to give me a marriage." β
The emperor paused slightly, raised his eyebrows and said, "Who do you like?" β
"Jingning Hou's sister, Qi Xuan."
The emperor stopped holding the chess piece's hand, and the joy on his face was also retracted: "Qi Xuan? He frowned and said, "Why her?" β
Xiao Heng looked at the chessboard: "She is liked, and it is normal for her to be attracted to her." β
The emperor stared at him for a moment, then threw the chess pieces back into the can: "She can't. β
Xiao Heng's eyebrows didn't move: "Why?" β
"Suiyun is preparing to propose marriage to the Qi family, you should already know this." The Emperor said.
"Even if it's a proposal, haven't you mentioned it yet? As long as it doesn't work out, then I won't be forced to marry. β
"You are not forcibly married, but if you want to give marriage, you will snatch love with a sword." The emperor looked at it deeply, "They are happy with each other, do you want to help you, the son of the emperor, to rob the girl that the courtiers fancie?" Or is it going to support you?
"In that case, what kind of person have you become?"
Xiao Heng said: "But Qi Xuanyu may not be able to have children, and my father can't bear to let Yan Tang have no heirs behind him?" β
The Emperor frowned: "This is not something you should care about. And even if she marries you, you may just as well have no heirs. β
Xiao Heng sat down for a while and said, "Erchen has no obsession with his heirs. The father also has a grandson.
"But Yantang has been cultivated by you all these years, and you have seen his good sons and grandsons and the world in your eyes, don't you want to see him in the future, his children and grandchildren around his knees, rich and rich?"
"You're obsessed?" The emperor looked into his eyes: "Are you obsessed, or is it because you are targeting Suiyun?" β
Xiao Heng raised his eyes: "Erchen didn't target it. β
"No, why would you stand by and watch him in the paddock? Why do you have to marry the person he likes now? The emperor's gaze was slightly sharp.
"It's because Erchen likes her." Xiao Heng turned his head to look at the curtain, "Erchen has lived in the countryside for a long time, and he is used to being unrestrained. Although the daughter of Jingshi is good, she has no temperament with me after all.
"It's just that Qi Mi is different, her lawless momentum makes me feel like I've found the same kind.
"I know Suiyun likes her, but I also know that apart from her, I'm afraid I won't be able to find someone who matches my identity and makes me admire."
Speaking of this, he raised his head: "Over the years, my father has let his sons stay in the temple, and his sons will stay in the temple, let his sons learn martial arts, and let his sons stay in Beijing and not return to Beijing, and his sons will not return to Beijing."
"In the past seventeen years, my father has come to see me no more than ten times, and my mother is gone, and I can't even describe what my father looks like.
"When I first came out of Beijing, I was afraid of the dark, and I was afraid of the little beasts that came down from the mountains at night and crawled around outside the window.
"Even with my master and brother with me, I couldn't sleep all night long, crying for my father and mother, and no one could answer me.
"I also grew up alone.
"Compared to Yantang, who has a mother and grew up under the care of you and the prince's brother, when I miss you, I can only secretly fantasize about the happy farmers under the mountain.
And that wasn't three or five months, not a year or two, but a full seventeen years.
"For the sake of this, my father will fulfill me once, and I won't be able to do it?"
The emperor looked at him fixedly, and did not say a word for a long time.
Xiao Heng's eyes turned red.
"Are you blaming me?" After a long time, the emperor spat out.
"Nope. Erchen justβ"
"Marquis Jingning just left the palace." The emperor put the chess pieces and looked at him deeply: "He told He Zhang that in addition to having a lot of conditions for being his sister-in-law, he also includes that his parents cannot have three wives and four concubines. Do you think you can do it? β
"That's just a joke."
"Even if it's a joke, I don't want you to cater to him." The emperor said slowly, "You like Qi Miao, the world is so big, you may not be able to find it."
"If you like a free and easy woman, the people have a lot of them, and the father and emperor will pick a few for you."
"I don't want it." Xiao Heng was slightly impetuous.
All that could be heard in the room was the sound of dripping.
He lowered his head again and said, "The son has forgotten the rules again, please ask my father to surrender." β
The Emperor was silent and said, "You are my son. Although I let you out for seventeen years, it doesn't mean that my father doesn't love you and doesn't care about you.
"Things have to come first, come first. Again, if you want to give you a marriage, I won't agree to you. β
Xiao Heng was silent for a long time, and then hooked his lips astringently: "If my father insists on refusing to give marriage to his son, then at least please don't give Yantang a marriage."
"The son is not talented, unlike Yan Tang, who is capable and outstanding, and can be valued so much by his father, at least you also give me a little right to fight for fairly."
After saying that, he got up and went to the ground, bowed to the ground, and withdrew.

There is still half a month left before the ceremony. Since she didn't have to go to school anymore, she has been taking classes very seriously recently.
But at the same time, there are several new juniors in the school, and the school in Taikang Fang is always so prosperous.
Cheng Minzhi came to school as soon as they recovered from their injuries, but thinking that they would be absent from her in the future, they regretted beating their chests and feet.
But this is a thing that there is no way to do, people always have to grow up, and life has to go forward.
Besides, she didn't think that just because she didn't go to class, they would leave her behind.
Qi Zimiao inquired about the news that Liang Yongchen has been very low-key recently, and Liang Li's leg injury is also being raised, and there is no moth to come out at present.
But he didn't hear about the follow-up of the previous contact with the Wura people, but he was a little frowning about the whereabouts of those people: "Those people did enter the customs from the north not long ago, and they are indeed the customs of Wura, and their identities will not be fake."
"But it is said that there is indeed a business relationship with the Liang family, not like a pure pretense."
Qi Yiyi thought about it, explained that he continued to star, and just happened to see Jing Ninghou, so he went up and told him about it.
