Chapter 198: Marriage
A moment later, Wang Kun walked into the main hall with Jiang Cheng and Jiang Yan.
When they saw Jiang Yan, everyone's eyes showed a bit of amazement, including Emperor Qi Ming.
But when he saw the two heads on the ground, he still said in a cold voice, "You are the concubine and concubine of King Chujiang?" ”
"See the Emperor."
Jiang Cheng and Jiang Yan both knelt down and kowtowed to Emperor Qi Ming before they whispered, "In turn, this time my father rebelled, and the crime of the Chujiang Mansion is unforgivable." ”
"But the hundreds of people in my Chujiang Mansion are innocent, and the people of Jiangzhou are also innocent, so I ask the emperor for forgiveness."
At the end of the day, Jiang Cheng directly knocked his head on the ground.
Although Emperor Qi Ming's eyes were all gloomy, when he heard Jiang Cheng's words at this moment, the expression in his eyes was a little gentler.
Looking at Jiang Cheng, he said lightly, "You are different from your father.
Jiang Cheng didn't dare to respond to this.
"For the sake of your voluntary surrender, I can not pursue the sins of the remaining people in the Chujiang Palace, but from now on, the Chujiang Palace's military power must be surrendered, and all taxes will be increased by two percent.
"Obey the order, thank you to the emperor.
Hearing Emperor Qi Ming's words, Jiang Cheng hurriedly kowtowed.
Jiangzhou is close to the sea and has a vast area, but it only increases the tax by 20%, which is nothing to Jiangzhou.
As for the military power of the domain, Jiang Cheng didn't dare to think about it for a long time.
At this time, Jiang Cheng saw Jiang Yan on the side, and when he thought of Jiang Yan's advice to himself when he came, Jiang Cheng took the initiative to speak, "Your Majesty, there is one thing, the minister wants to ask the emperor."
"What's the matter, you can say.
Maybe it's because Jiang Cheng knows each other very well, so Emperor Qi Ming's attitude is not bad at the moment.
Jiang Cheng glanced at Jiang Yan, and then looked at Emperor Qi Ming and said, "Your Majesty, my eldest sister has always admired the scenery of Kyoto, so she wants to marry into Kyoto, so the minister wants to ask the emperor to give her a marriage."
Hearing this, Emperor Qi Ming's gaze fell directly on Jiang Yan.
I don't know what came to mind, Emperor Qi Ming suddenly glanced at Xiao Junhao.
Feeling that Emperor Qi Ming's gaze fell on his body, Xiao Junhao's heart jumped.
Just as he was about to speak, he heard Emperor Qi Ming's voice, "In this case, I will marry Miss Jiang to King Qing as the concubine." ”
"Father?"
Emperor Qi Ming's voice was not loud, but it fell into the ears of everyone in the hall, and when Xiao Junhao heard Emperor Qi Ming's words, his whole face changed.
His eyes were full of resistance and unwillingness.
But when Emperor Qi Ming heard his voice, he looked at him lightly and said, "What, are you dissatisfied with my will?" ”
"Erchen doesn't dare."
"Thank you, father."
Xiao Junhao clenched his palm, and after being silent for a few seconds, he kowtowed to Emperor Qi Ming with a smile.
Regarding Emperor Qi Ming's arrangement, Jiang Yan was also stunned.
She has always been proud of her beauty, and she thought that Emperor Qi Ming would take her into the palace, but she didn't want the emperor to marry her directly to King Qing.
Jiang Yan subconsciously looked at Xiao Junhao.
When she came, she naturally inquired about several princes in the court, and this King Qing didn't seem to be liked by Emperor Qi Ming.
But at the moment, she has no choice.
At this time, Emperor Qi Ming looked at Jiang Yan with a smile, "Miss Jiang, I will marry you to King Qing as the concubine, what do you think?" ”
"Courtier, thank you emperor."
Hearing Emperor Qi Ming's words, Jiang Yan hurriedly knelt down and saluted.
All the expressions were not good-looking, but Xiao Nanye, when he saw Xiao Junhao's dark face, a mocking smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Nanye, what do you think of this marriage?"
"The arrangement of the imperial brother is naturally excellent, just?"
"Just what?"
At this time, Xiao Nanye's eyes fell on Xiao Junhao's body, and when he met his eyes, Xiao Nanye smiled faintly, "It's just that I heard that King Qing and General Lin's concubine have a close relationship, and I want to come to the emperor's brother suddenly magnetic ring, and King Qing doesn't know how to explain to the eldest lady of the Lin family." ”
"Miss Lin?"
Emperor Qi Ming looked at Xiao Nanye, and there was some doubt in his eyes.
And Xiao Junhao's face is no longer an ugly one that can be described.
Emperor Qi Ming's gaze had already fallen on Xiao Junhao's body, looking at him, the emperor spoke directly, "What your imperial uncle said is true?" ”
Xiao Junhao is very similar to denying it, but once he denies it today, if he wants to marry Lin Mengyao in the future, he will be bullying him.
The thoughts in his mind kept turning, and after a moment of silence, Xiao Junhao kowtowed to Emperor Qi Ming, "Father and emperor forgive sins, and the son really likes the eldest lady of the Lin family." ”
"In that case, then I will give her to you as a side concubine."
After thinking about it, Emperor Qi Ming continued, "In less than two months, your imperial uncle is going to marry the eldest lady of the Jiang family, so let the Ministry of Rites do it together, and on that day, your main concubine and side concubine will also enter the mansion together." ”
Under normal circumstances, it is very rare for the main concubine and the side concubine to enter the palace together, but since Emperor Qi Ming has said so, Xiao Junhao can only obey his fate.
"Thank you, Father."
Jiang Yan on the side never made a sound, as if she hadn't heard a few people at all.
When Jiang Peihuan was mentioned, Emperor Qi Ming's eyes suddenly fell on Xiao Nanye's body, "Speaking of which, this time I want to be the eldest daughter of Jiang Hong of the Jiang family." ”
"Wang Kun, I'll go to the treasury and pick up some things and send them to the general's mansion."
"Yes."
"Brother Huang, you don't need to take a trip from Mr. Wang, just send it to your brother."
"Also, Manager Wang doesn't know Huan'er's love, so I'll do the job of selecting things."
"Are you emptying my private treasury again?"
"Brother Huang's words are unreasonable, when did I empty your private treasury?"
"I'm too lazy to tell you."
Hearing Xiao Nanye's words, Emperor Qi Ming glared at him angrily, but he didn't mean to be angry.
When everyone saw the scene in front of them, their eyes were full of complexity.
"Wang Kun, you go to the Lin family to pass on the decree."
"Yes."
Half an hour later, Wang Kun went to the Lin Mansion with the holy decree.
The door of the Lin Mansion opened, and a bright smile appeared on everyone's faces, especially Mrs. Lin.
As long as Lin Mengyao marries into King Qing's mansion, she will be a veritable housewife in this mansion in the future, and no one can humiliate her.
"Yao'er, you are really a good daughter for your mother."
Looking at Lin Mengyao walking beside her, Mrs. Lin looked at her with a smile in her eyes and said.
For some reason, Lin Mengyao always felt a little uneasy in her heart.
But seeing that the person who came to the rice paper was the chief eunuch beside Emperor Qi Ming, Wang Kun, she was relieved again.
Following Lin Ruhai and Mrs. Lin knelt down, Lin Mengyao also showed a little smile on her face.
"Lord Lin, Mrs. Lin, congratulations."
Wang Kun smiled and spoke, and then unfolded the holy decree.
"The emperor has decreed that the eldest lady of the Lin family will be given to King Qing as a side concubine."
"Side, side concubine?"
