Chapter 328 I have heard what I should have heard.
Chapter 328: I heard everything I needed to hear.
The King of Jin's words not only frightened Zhao Zhuo, but also frightened Xu Dinghai.
The emperor wants to marry his daughter?
How could he not know what was going on with his daughter? His wife was so worried about her daughter's marriage that her hair had turned a lot of gray. As long as their daughter could get married in this life, the couple would be burning incense. How could they dare to dream of the glory and honor in the palace.
"Your Majesty, think twice. My daughter is mediocre in appearance and ill-fated. She is really not worthy of Your Majesty and cannot bear the important responsibility of being a mother to the world."
Xu Dinghai knelt down and kowtowed: "Please, Your Majesty, take back your order."
Xu Dinghai's attitude made Zhao Zhuo feel better. He was forced to do so. If Xu Dinghai rushed forward and acted like he wanted to get close to him immediately, he would definitely hate and resist even more, even if he really married Xu Dinghai.
My daughter is just coping.
Fortunately, Xu Dinghai is sober. Even if he loses his position as queen, he will not be greedy for it.
Zhao Zhuona felt less reluctant and began to seriously think about the feasibility of this matter.
Apart from the reputation of the Xu family's daughter Kefu, marrying the Xu family's daughter would be beneficial without any harm. Although she was forced, he was the one who benefited.
"Tomorrow, the prime minister will come to the palace and bring Miss Xu with him. Speaking of which, I haven't seen her before." Even if he is convinced in his heart, he still has to meet the person to see if he is a good match. After all, this is a major event in his life.
.
Xu Dinghai frowned: "Your Majesty, my little daughter..."
"Prime Minister Xu." Zhao Zhuo called to him: "You don't want to help me?"
Xu Dinghai handed over his hand: "I am the emperor's prime minister, and I will do my best to be loyal to the emperor."
Zhao Zhuo: "Does that mean you don't like my son-in-law?"
Xu Dinghai's expression froze and he looked at Zhao Zhuo: "Your Majesty, how could I look down on you? This little girl is really unworthy. If you enter the palace, I'm afraid the Emperor will be humiliated."
Zhao Zhuo had a look of disapproval: "Miss Xu is a lady of the family and abides by etiquette. How can she be shamed? Just because she was annulled? Even if she is a bad character, it was brought about by her destiny, and it is not because of her lack of virtue.
Besides, in my opinion, Miss Xu is destined to be noble, how can an ordinary person be worthy of her?"
"This..." Zhao Zhuo's words can be said to have touched the heart of Xu Dinghai, an old husband. Although he kept saying that his daughter was not worthy, as a father, he naturally felt sorry for his daughter. Zhao Zhuo's words
He said these words so much that he could not refute them.
"Old minister...bring the little girl to the palace tomorrow..." If you can't agree immediately, then let's take a look and see if it works out.
Xu Dinghai was full of complex feelings and had a melancholy look on his face. By coincidence, he met Han Ji as soon as he came out. It was natural that Han Taishi would inform the emperor on his 70th birthday. As for whether the emperor would come or not, it would depend on whether the emperor valued it.
The Han family has become very arrogant these days. The two brothers of the Han family walk with their heads held high and their steps brisk. Seeing Xu Dinghai's sad face, Han Ji asked curiously: "Brother Xu, what's going on? But the emperor
Are you talking nonsense again? Hey, the emperor is young and it is normal for him to be unclear about many things. If you are really in trouble, you can tell me and I will go and persuade the emperor."
He seemed to be curious, but in fact his eyes were full of gloating and showing off. His tone clearly meant that he treated the emperor as a junior, just because the emperor was planning to marry Han Zhisu?
Thinking of what the emperor just said, Xu Dinghai couldn't help but sneer in his heart. The emperor is too young to be able to carry it? Not necessarily.
"It is indeed a bit difficult, but I won't bother Mr. Han. I can still handle a small matter."
Han Ji was in a very good mood and did not bother with him: "Brother Xu, please don't be polite if it is useful. I have to rush to see the emperor, so I will go there first."
Watching Han Ji walk towards the gate of Qianyuan Hall, Xu Dinghai waved his sleeves. Originally, he was not optimistic when the emperor mentioned this matter, but when necessary, he still had to fight to avoid looking down upon others...
When Xu Dinghai returned home, he immediately sent someone to find his daughter Xu Wanyi, while he went to discuss it with his wife first.
He backed away before telling his wife Wang about this matter. Mrs. Xu was also frightened. The Xu family had a clean family tradition, but they received a lot of criticism because of their daughter's bad fate. The couple felt sorry for their daughter, but it was difficult for them to do so.
Block everyone's mouth.
They only hoped that their daughter would get a good marriage, and they never dreamed of wealth. Isn't this sudden surprise scary?
"Your Majesty, what do you mean by this? Why did you suddenly make such a decision?"
Xu Dinghai thought a lot when he came back. It was unexpected but natural that the emperor would make such a decision: "Madam, you have forgotten that your husband is the prime minister. The Xu family is a noble family, and my daughter of the Xu family is worthy of that honor."
, it’s just that I never thought about it before.”
Xu Wanyi came to the door of the house and went in without closing the door. Her mother asked: "What does the emperor think of our daughter? Although we are looking forward to our daughter getting married, this is also a great honor, but Wanyi
It's the flesh that fell off my body, and I can't bear to let her be plotted against."
Xu Wanyi slowly stopped, and her father sighed: "This is a calculation, how could I not know it? But thunder, rain and dew are all your kindness, how can I refuse it?"
"But this matter is not that bad. Although the emperor is young, he is a responsible emperor. He also speaks straight to the point and is not a conspiracy. What moved me the most was what he said."
Mrs. Xu quickly asked: "What did he say?"
Xu Dinghai held Mrs. Xu's hand: "He said that Wanyi was a lady of the family and abided by the etiquette. She was destined to have bad luck with her husband. The annulment of the engagement was not because of her lack of virtue. He also said that Wanyi's destiny was destined to be noble, and she was not one of those
Anyone who can be worthy of an ordinary person is destined to be a royal person."
Mrs. Xu was immediately surprised and beamed: "I really didn't expect that. I have met the emperor several times, but he was always too old and majestic to get close to. I didn't expect him to be so good at talking."
Xu Dinghai patted her hand: "He is sincere, and I believe him somewhat, but it is still unknown whether it will succeed or not. Please explain it to Wanyi later, and bring gifts to the palace tomorrow to visit the Queen Mother and let the Emperor see her.
Once we meet Wanyi, let’s talk about the rest..."
After what Xu Dinghai said, Mrs. Xu couldn't be more satisfied with the emperor, but no matter how satisfied she was, she had to be more reserved and not be too public: "I won't worry, I will talk to my daughter later and let her prepare well.
"
After speaking, he raised his eyes and saw Xu Wanyi standing next to the screen. She was slightly startled: "Wanyi, when did you come?"
Xu Wanyi's lowered hands twisted her handkerchief unconsciously, lowering her head and looking very embarrassed: "My daughter has been here for a while..."
