Chapter 9: The Marriage Storm (2)
"That's what Lonely means." King Yan nodded, looked at Nie Xingji, who was silent, and asked him, "What do you think?" ”
Nie Xingji didn't have much expression, and replied with his chin bowed: "Erchen also thinks so." ”
The father and son reached a consensus so quickly, and King Yan nodded with satisfaction, and asked again, "Do you have a suitable candidate in mind?" After a pause, he didn't forget to emphasize: "The identity can't be too low, after all, we can't stand her." ”
When the prince heard this, he groaned, and silently counted in his heart the men of the right age in the court, unmarried or widowers.
After a while, he had a favorite candidate in his heart, so he took the initiative to say: "Erchen thought of a suitable choice, it is ......"
"Father," the crown prince could not finish his words when he was suddenly interrupted by Nie Xingji. This was really rude, and it also surprised King Yan. The second son in his impression has always been polite in front of his eldest brother and has never exceeded it. Although, he knew that it was pretended by Nie Xingji.
"Father, the marriage of the king and sister of Qingcheng must be considered in the long run, and I am afraid that there will be no result for a while. Dingyuan General Ming Chenyuan has been waiting outside the hall for a long time...... This time, he has a meritorious role in destroying Chu, why don't you summon him first? Nie Xingji suddenly blocked the prince's words, not wanting to do it for this matter.
The prince was displeased, but he heard that Nie Xingji wanted to introduce his subordinates to Ming Chenyuan, so he didn't say anything more. Everyone knows that Ming Chenyuan is a favorite general under Nie Xingji, and this battle of Yanchu is the vanguard under his command, with outstanding military achievements.
It is indeed not the way of a king to let the heroes wait for a long time. In particular, Ming Chen was born in the Ming family, although he was born in the Ming family, but he always won this surname, and he has an in-law relationship with the Yan royal family. Even if he doesn't give Nie Xingji face, he has to give face to the Ming family.
So, the prince smiled and agreed: "Brother Scar is very right. Qingcheng's marriage is not in a hurry at this time, and General Wanyuan has something important to start, but it will be delayed. ”
King Yan knew the meaning of the prince's words, and also understood Nie Xingji's intentions, so he agreed: "It's okay, let's pass him into the palace first!" ”
Suddenly, a young man in armor entered the palace to meet him: "Weichen is far away, I have seen the king, His Royal Highness the Prince, and His Royal Highness the Marquis." ”
Mingchen is about twenty years old, his eyebrows are awe-inspiring, his appearance is dignified, and he is a person who is in the army at a glance. King Yan was very satisfied with his performance in attacking Chu this time, so he said kindly: "Flat, give me a seat." ”
Ming Chenyuan thanked him and sat down under Nie Xingji.
"Look at your military uniform, you just came back from Chudi?" King Yan asked knowingly.
"Exactly." Ming Chenyuan bowed his head: "Weichen was ordered to reorganize the remnants of the Chu army, and now it has been more than four months, and he has come to report to the king." As he spoke, he got up from his seat again and presented a book of excerpts, which was the result of his incorporation of the Chu army.
King Yan took the fold and swept it slightly, looking very satisfied, and looked Ming Chen up and down again, and said with a smile: "You are worthy of being a descendant of the Ming family, when the Marquis recommended you to be the pioneer of attacking Chu, you still have doubts." I don't want you to be so outstanding, in the long run, you will also be a fierce general in the DPRK and China. ”
"The king has a good reputation." Ming Chenyuan humbly replied: "It's all His Royal Highness Jinghou who governs the army well, and Weichen just has some brute strength." ”
When King Yan heard this, he laughed out loud, pressed the fold and continued: "Not bad. Mingxiang's two sons are not bad, your brother is good at literature, you are good at martial arts, and they are all pillars of the country. This time, you have a meritorious service in destroying Chu, let's say, what reward do you want? ”
Ming Chen seemed to have expected that King Yan would be rewarded, but he didn't mean to be polite, so he knelt down in the hall again with a clean look, and directly asked: "Weichen, ask to marry Princess Qingcheng." ”
