Chapter 5 An Unexpected Sweetheart, an Unexpected Marriage

"Good boy, do you have a sweetheart?" The queen didn't care about the little episode just now.

If you say no, I'm afraid you will be accused of marrying the prince, but if you say that there is.... Su Yu looked in the direction of Li Xu with his spare eyes, if he said that there was, it would be difficult to do, but... The lesser of two evils.

Su Yu lowered her head shyly and timidly: "If you go back to your mother, there is." ”

The queen was obviously stunned for a moment, and all the courtiers were also surprised, and they all sighed in their hearts, at this time, they said that their sweetheart had rejected the position of the crown princess, and they didn't know if this Su Yu was really stupid or fake.

Su Mu sat not far away and looked at Su Yu, her forehead was sweating,

The queen replied: "Which family's son, let's hear it, this palace will make the decision for you." ”

Su Yu tilted his head slightly and glanced at Li Xu, Li Xu's face that was always warm and warm frowned when he rarely smiled at the moment.

Su Yu had obviously seen what kind of person Li Xu was, but he still couldn't help but feel heartache for a moment, Li Xu wanted to usurp power and had to get military power, but as an illegitimate child, he couldn't let the emperor see his ambitions, so before the death of the emperor in his previous life, Li Xu had been dragging on not marrying her for various reasons.

And every time... She was convinced.

Thinking of this, Su Yu suddenly had some bad taste in her heart, if she really married Li Xu, Li Xu's full plan would be ruined.

Su Yu pretended to be shy and lowered her head: "The courtier's sweetheart is..."

"It's me!"

Jiang Ci suddenly stood up and interrupted Su Yu's words, and Su Yu suddenly looked back, his eyes full of shock.

Jiang Ci ignored Su Yu's eyes, and walked straight to her side and bowed to the emperor.

"Your Majesty, Niangniang, the minister and Yu'er are childhood sweethearts, and the two hearts are happy, I hope Your Majesty and Niangniang will be fulfilled."

This time it was the emperor's turn to speak: "Su Yu, is it?" ”

Su Yu was still immersed in the shock of Jiang Ci's operation.

"Su Yu?" The Emperor shouted again.

Su Yu came back to his senses: "Back to Your Majesty's words, the courtiers and the King of Jin are indeed happy. ”

The emperor lowered his eyes, and his expression was unpredictable.

As soon as Jiang Ci raised his head, he met the prince's unwilling eyes, he narrowed his eyes and pulled Su Yu's sleeve, and the two knelt down together.

Jiang Ci hugged his hands on his chest, and the sincerity in his eyes was revealed: "The minister loves Yu'er, she will not marry in this life, I hope Your Majesty will be fulfilled!" ”

The bright candle flame reflected in the emperor's eyes, covering the original coldness, and he laughed softly: "Changsong, it's useless for you to just tell me this, you should ask Mrs. Ning Yuanhou if she is dissatisfied with your son-in-law, hahaha." ”

As soon as these words came out, Su Mu could only get up and respond: "Yu'er can win the favor of King Jin, it is her blessing, and it is the blessing of our Su family." "It's a good time to come, and I have a son-in-law when I go back, so how can I be reasonable.

"Hahaha, good!" The emperor slapped his thigh, "This matter is settled, no, I am happy today, come here!" I'm going to issue an edict! ”

After a while, the little chamberlain brought up a hand, and the emperor waved his hand and landed a few lines of large characters on the fine silk cloth scroll.

"Read!" The Emperor took the pen and threw the scroll into the hands of the chief chamberlain.

The chief attendant caught the scroll steadily, cleared his throat and opened the scroll: "King Jin and the Marquis of Ningyuan Mansion listen to the order!" ”

As soon as the voice of the chief attendant fell, Su Mu and Shen Fu also got out of their seats and knelt in the center of the main hall.

"Fengtian carries the emperor's edict and says: My beloved brother Jin Wang Jiang Ci has a noble character, filial piety and good deeds, and attaches equal importance to civil and military affairs, and has reached the weak crown. Today, there is Su Yu, the daughter of Su Yiqian, the Marquis of Ningyuan, who is worth the year of Xuan, dignified in appearance, and shows off her wisdom, so she is appointed as the concubine of the King of Jin, and she chooses an auspicious day to get married! Chin this! ”

"The minister takes the order!"

"The courtiers take the order!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty! Long live our emperor! Banzai! Hooray! ”

"Okay, let's all be even." The emperor raised his glass and smiled, "Today is a great joy, everyone loves to have fun!" ”

"King He Jin is overjoyed! He Ning Yuanhou Mansion is overjoyed! ”

Drums and music sounded in unison, light songs and dances, and the grand palace banquet did not end until Hai Shi, and everyone walked outside the hall one after another, and almost everyone wanted to come to Jiang Ci to say congratulations.

Su Yu told Su Mu and the two to leave first, and she arrived later, and she came to Jiang Ci's side when everyone was almost gone.

"Why are you standing up?" Jiang Ci really confused Su Yu this time.

Jiang Ci rarely did not talk.

Su Yu didn't want to delve into it, after all, Jiang Ci was to help her: "The prince is too risky this time, Your Majesty must be suspicious of you." ”

Jiang Ci smiled casually: "I've been suspicious for a long time, what's the matter if it's more or less." ”

"Thank you." This Xie Suyu said sincerely, if it weren't for Jiang Ci standing up, she was afraid that her head would be hot and she would have said Li Xu, she thought about it simply just now, but now she is a little scared when she thinks about it, let alone disgusting.

"Thanks?" Jiang Ci pretended to smile lightly, "I thought you would blame me." ”

"Why do you blame? It's better to marry you than to marry someone else. ”

Jiang Ci was slightly stunned, and his gaze avoided Su Yu.

Su Yu didn't notice this subtle change, and sighed to herself: "After tonight, I'm afraid that Your Majesty will see that you will have trouble day and night." ”

Jiang Ci smiled indifferently: "Even if there is no matter today, Your Majesty has long regarded me as a thorn in the side, Your Majesty has been happy in this marriage because of his trust in the Su family, but in the future, you and I need to be more cautious." ”

"I stood up today and pulled the Su family onto my boat." Jiang Ci stroked Su Yu's shoulder, "So, the one who should feel guilty is me." ”

"King Jin." Li Xu hurriedly walked to the two of them and naturally brushed Jiang Ci's hand away.

It was even more late at night, and there were only three of them left in the main hall.

Jiang Ci flicked his sleeves: "Master Li, is there something wrong?" ”

Li Xu maintained a decent smile: "I have something I want to say to Yu'er alone, and I also ask King Jin to make it convenient." ”

Jiang Ci raised his eyebrows and laughed: "This king doesn't know what Lord Li and this king's quasi-princess have to say alone?" ”

"Knowingly asked." Li Xu restrained his smile.

Jiang Ci's eyes turned cold, and Su Yu reached out and tugged at his sleeve.

"Ah Ci, I also have something to ask Master Li."

Jiang Ci glanced at Li Xu and walked outside the door.

The two in the hall looked at each other for a long time, and Li Xu opened his mouth to question first, breaking the silence.

"Yu'er, why do you have to admit that you are in love with King Jin?"

Su Yu looked at Li Xu's hypocritical eyes and felt funny: "Otherwise? Let him bully the king? ”

Li Xu was silent for a while and then said, "The person you were going to talk about was me, right?" ”

Su Yu suppressed the disgust and nodded.

Li Xu held Su Yu's shoulders and gave her a comforting smile: "It's okay Yu'er, I won't let you marry him, you believe me, I will take you away, let's leave here and go to a place where there are only the two of us." ”

"Take me away?" Su Yu shook off Li Xu's hand suddenly, "Li Zhijin, do you want me to bully the king and resist the decree and connect the nine clans?" ”

"Yu'er?" Li Xu looked a little flustered, "Yu'er, I don't think so, I just love you too much, I don't want you to marry another man." ”

Su Yu wanted to laugh from the bottom of her heart: "You love me too much?" If you love me so much, why didn't you stand up when the queen asked me about my sweetheart? Why didn't you dare to argue until Your Majesty gave you a marriage? ”

"I.." Li Xu was speechless for a while.

Su Yu's voice cooled down: "Li Zhijin, I am not a water-based Yanghua person, since His Majesty's marriage is a foregone conclusion, then you and I will have nothing to do with it after today, and you don't have to entangle more to cause misunderstanding." ”

"Yu'er?" Li Xu's eyes widened, and he couldn't believe that these words would come out of Su Yu's mouth.

"Yu'er, I know you're talking angry, you can't do any of this."

Li Xu said and reached out to pull Su Yu, Jiang Ci walked in quickly, grabbed Li Xu's wrist and threw it back, the force was so great that Li Xu staggered back two steps.

"Master Li, please respect yourself!" Jiang Ci's tone was full of warnings, and after speaking, he glanced at Li Xu coldly, and pulled Su Yu out of the hall together.
