Chapter 255 The general is late
"Your Majesty..." Ye Wenxuan was very anxious. If the emperor was determined to use Ye Zhaoyan, this would be difficult.
"I know, this matter is wronged." Emperor Donglin sighed, but there was no expression of regret on his face.
This attitude made Ye Wenxuan even more panicked. With his intuition to speculate on the Sacred Heart for many years, this was a sign of the movingness of Emperor Donglin's heart.
"Your Majesty, this matter should be cautious..." Ye Wenxuan was about to persuade him, but Emperor Donglin waved his hand to interrupt, "Ye Aiqing, please be careful, let me think carefully."
Seeing this, a cold light flashed through his eyes, "This matter is the sage of Your Majesty, so you should be cautious. But my brother is serious about Ye Zhaoyan, regardless of whether the matter is successful or not, I will go to the Ye family to propose marriage!"
"Your Majesty, don't mess around!" Ye Wenxuan angrily scolded, "Zhaoyan is the Ye family's beads. How can he decide to get married without hesitation?"
When Emperor Donglin heard this, his face suddenly became a little ugly. Marrying a royal family has always been a high marriage, and it is an honor that ordinary officials have sought. Why did Ye Wenxuan say this?
Seeing this, King Qing bowed to Emperor Donglin and said sincerely, "Although my brother is a prince, he has not taken a concubine. If Zhao Yan married him, he would definitely not suffer any grievance."
Although he said this to Emperor Donglin, his eyes were looking at Ye Wenxuan.
"Oh?" Emperor Donglin's face recovered a little, and he asked with interest, "Why don't you take a concubine?"
"My brother has been loving Ye Zhaoyan for a long time. He has always kept himself clean and not greedy for beauty."
"In this way, is it because you haven't married for many years that you are infatuated with infatuation?" Emperor Donglin smiled.
"That's right. Your Majesty, I dare to ask for a marriage! Miss Ye is not as good as a man, but I admire her for a long time, and I just wish I could not marry her."
"Give marriage?" Emperor Donglin narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he was pondering.
"Your king is careful!" Ye Wenxuan shouted violently, and a coldness appeared in his eyes.
The king ignored Ye Wenxuan and called Emperor Donglin to strike the railway while it was hot: "Your Majesty, although General Ye is the largest general, he holds the Ye family army, but he is still old. I heard that in this battle of Hexi, the general suffered from poison and his health was no longer as good as before. The Ye family had no descendants, and the Ye family army needed a capable person to take on the responsibility."
Emperor Donglin's eyes were wide open and he looked at Ye Wenxuan, "Ye Aiqing, your body is really as King Qing said?"
Although Ye Wenxuan was questioned for his age, no one has ever surpassed his skills.
Because of this reason, Emperor Donglin had no reason to take away the Ye family army from Ye Wenxuan.
"Old minister..." Ye Wenxuan showed a hesitant look on his face. What he relied most on and benefited the most was his ability. He had never thought before that one day, he would treat him worse than before.
"It's better for the general to tell the truth. These things can be covered for a while but not for a lifetime." King Qing reminded sinisterly.
Ye Wenxuan had to bite the bullet and said, "It's true."
When Emperor Donglin heard this, a faint light flashed in his eyes. Since he admitted it himself, the situation must be very bad.
He had already known about Ye Wenxuan's injury in the letter. Seeing that he had returned from victory and good luck, he didn't think much about it. He never thought that Ye Wenxuan's body was not good.
"Your Majesty, don't worry. Although General Ye is old, the Ye family army in his hands is the same as before." The King of Qing said solemnly, "If the Prince of Qing's Mansion is married to the Ye family, and if the general is in charge of the assistance, I will definitely be able to achieve great things and live up to Your Majesty's cultivation. As for the eldest daughter of the Ye family, I will also give her a honorable identity and will never treat her unfairly."
He spoke with great sound, as if everything was for the sake of Emperor Donglin's foundation, and he looked righteous.
Ye Wenxuan's chest was so angry that his chest was fluctuating violently, "Don't think about it! Ye Zhaoyan would never marry someone like you who is ill-hearted! Your Majesty, don't believe his words!"
"General Ye, don't be too self-righteous. All my plans are for Tianlu." King Qing stared at him coldly, his eyes flashing with danger. "The Ye family has been loyal and kind for generations. Could it be that General Ye is going to rebel?"
"All nonsense!" Ye Wenxuan gritted his teeth: "What exactly do you want to do!"
"I just want to share the worries of Your Majesty. Why should General Ye be angry and embarrassed?"
"Ye Zhaoyan is the bloodline of the Ye family. How can he forcibly marry into the royal family?" Ye Wenxuan said firmly, "If she really wants to marry into the royal palace, my Ye family will break off relations with her!"
"How can Ye Zhaoyan's parents even live in the world? As a woman from a noble family, although she cannot revitalize her family business like a man, she can also contribute to the revitalization of her family. What I think and do is common in the world. Why do the general oppose so strongly?" King Qing looked at him without fear. Both of them were staring at him, and no one was willing to give in.
"Zhaoyan is just a woman who has not yet been married. How can she bear the responsibility for family revitalization? I, Ye Wenxuan, must not let this happen. My granddaughter would rather stay away from the world than let her get involved in this mud! Please think twice—"Ye Wenxuan was so sad that he suddenly knelt down on the ground and begged to Emperor Donglin.
"Enough!" Emperor Donglin shouted in a deep voice, his eyes slowly swept across the two, and finally stopped on King Qing, "King Qing, are you talking seriously just now?"
King Qing knelt down on the ground and said respectfully: "Everything is true for me. Although Ye Zhaoyan is not the daughter of the royal family, he has made great contributions. I am willing to marry her as the concubine and lead the Ye family army to drive him to express my sincerity to Your Majesty!"
"Your King is so loyal to me, I am ashamed." Emperor Donglin's face relaxed and his lips raised, "You said just now that the man who could show his presence behind Ye Zhaoyan, I wonder where to find such a person. It turns out that he was yourself?"
"That's right." King Qing said calmly.
Although Tianlu is a powerful country, the people still retain the ancient traditional concepts. Women are not allowed to participate in politics, nor can they join the army. It would be a good thing to use this clever method to let Ye Zhaoyan play his strengths to fight for Tianlu.
Emperor Donglin and King Qing obviously thought of this.
"Your Majesty, my northern border is vast and everything is full of waste. It is the time to use people. Although I am just a idle prince, I am also ambitious. Now the border is in turmoil and uneasy. Your Majesty wants to expand the territory. I am willing to follow the example of my ancestors and lead the troops and horses to serve your majesty. Please ask your Majesty to marry Ye Zhaoyan!"
Emperor Donglin closed his eyes, as if weighing the pros and cons, "It's feasible..."
"Your Majesty—" Ye Wenxuan shouted hurriedly, his expression full of anxiety, as if he could pounce on him in the next moment to change Emperor Donglin's decision.
