Chapter 197 Emperor Xing'an Proposes a Marriage
She can resolve them easily.
Feng Chenyi couldn't fall behind either, he slumped to his knees and said, "I am wrong. I should have brought them in unarmed. Life and death are determined by fate. I shouldn't have allowed them to bring weapons into the palace to fight against the monsters without my father's consent!"
Even if I die in there, I will have served my country with honor!"
What they just dealt with was a man-eating monster. Feng Chenyi's tactic was to retreat in order to advance. I believe that Emperor Xing'an would not dare to blame Feng Chenyi for bringing sharp weapons into the palace!
They were going to fight the monsters, but they weren't even allowed to bring weapons. Isn't that sending them to their deaths? Emperor Xing'an wouldn't shoot himself in the foot.
Queen Bu and the King's Uncle were so angry that they gritted their teeth when they saw the endless stream of officials speaking in favor of Prince Rui. The King's Uncle even gestured to his relatives to speak, but those people did not dare to speak.
Because some of them had leverage over their sons, and when Prince Rui was cornered, he persuaded Emperor Xing'an to send an imperial physician, so they could not escape the crime of deceiving the emperor.
Just as Zhai Yun had thought, Emperor Xing'an, who was sitting in the main seat, reluctantly dismissed the guards and archers. He looked at Feng Chenyi, whose guard had been removed, and said lazily, "Alright! I'm not unreasonable. I should have thought of preparing for you earlier."
The queen was a little unwilling and was about to say something when she was stopped by the prince.
The prince had been watching all this silently. He also noticed that his father's attitude towards Feng Chenyi had changed twice. Zhai Yun had been using family affection as an excuse.
The king has already been moved. If the queen mother stops him from doing things at this time, she will only get a bad reputation.
Fu Yiming watched the matter being covered up like this, and was so angry that he almost threw the whisk in his hand away. Seeing Emperor Che looking at him, he suppressed all his emotions and became afraid.
I came to Fengli Country with the determination to win. Even if I couldn't win, I wanted to test the strength of Zhai Yun and Feng Chenyi. But this time, a Taoist priest Yan Nanheng showed up unexpectedly.
Zhai Yun and Prince Rui did not reveal their true colors, and without winning, Emperor Che could not do what he wanted to do!
Xuanyuan Che has sized up Yan Nanheng many times. Although he was unwilling to accept his defeat, the fact that Prince Rui could control a remarkable person like Yan Nanheng showed that Prince Rui was indeed not an ordinary person!
It’s not a complete failure!
Emperor Xing'an took care of his country's affairs before looking at Xuanyuan Che with a smile, "Thank you for letting me."
Emperor Xing'an had never been optimistic about Feng Chenyi, but Feng Chenyi's victory was beyond his expectation. The alchemist he found also seemed extraordinary and did not seem like a fraud.
Emperor Xing'an suddenly felt that he had underestimated his son! It seemed that there were many things that Prince Rui didn't know during his years in the Northern Wilderness.
Xuanyuan Che looked at Emperor Xing'an, a faint smile on his face, and said, "Emperor Xing'an is truly an outstanding son. Xuanyuan lost!"
After Xuanyuan Che finished speaking, he slowly stood up and walked down from the main seat.
Only five of the originally scheduled six competitions were held, and he felt a little regretful that he was unable to get Emperor Xing'anda of Fengli Kingdom to fulfill his condition.
Fu Yiming followed Xuanyuan Che closely, and he roughly understood the direction he was looking in.
He had originally thought that if he won the competition, he would ask Fengli Kingdom for Zhai Yun. Now that his plan has failed, Emperor Che must go to meet Zhai Yun. After all, the reason he traveled so far this time was all because of her!
When Feng Chenyi and the other two came down from the competition stage, they happened to run into Xuanyuan Che who was coming towards them. Xuanyuan Che looked at Zhai Yun with an undisguised expression: "What a pity! I don't know when we'll meet again in the future!"
He will never forget the moment when Zhai Yunzhi broke into the Xuanyuan Kingdom’s military camp. She was weak but extremely powerful, with the stubbornness on her face and the murderous aura all over her body. She was unforgettable at first sight.
Zhai Yun looked at Xuanyuan Che's regretful expression, as if he had just lost something, and asked inexplicably, "Is Emperor Che planning to return home?"
Xuanyuan Che smiled. This time, it was different from the previous ones. It wasn't a fake smile, but a smile from the heart. "It's time to go back. I've stayed here too long."
It was the first time that Zhai Yun saw him like this. She felt a little regretful but had to move on. She said goodbye, "Then I wish Emperor Che a safe journey!"
According to the rules before the competition, if Xuanyuan Kingdom lost, it would agree to a request made by Fengli Kingdom, not to cede land or silver, and not to damage the national prestige. Emperor Che was not someone who could not afford to lose.
He returned to the main seat and immediately asked Emperor Xing'an what Fengli Kingdom wanted him to do.
Emperor Xing'an never thought that he would win, and had never considered this matter. The ministers also looked at each other in confusion, and only the empress was eager to try.
Emperor Xing'an favored his enchanting concubine, Concubine Chen, in his early years. He said they wanted to be together forever, and in order to win over her family's power, he had no choice but to make her his empress and favor her.
There were few other concubines, and even fewer children.
Unfortunately, there is only one princess among these heirs, Princess Mingyue, born to a concubine, and named Chenyue. Fortunately, Emperor An dotes on her very much and would like to take this opportunity to marry her off to a distant place.
Her lowly mother will never be able to turn things around.
She had finally managed to get rid of Concubine Su from competing for her favor, and she couldn't keep this trouble.
The queen glanced at the young girl sitting among the princes in the audience, a look of pride in her eyes. She quickly stood up in front of everyone and walked to Emperor Xing'an and bowed.
She whispered something in Emperor Xing'an's ear, and Emperor Xing'an was displeased at first, but then gradually relaxed his brows.
While speaking, Queen Buluo had been observing Emperor Xing'an's expression. When she saw that he had relaxed a little from his initial displeasure, she knew that she had succeeded.
After the Queen finished speaking, she tactfully returned to her seat. This important matter of marriage must be proposed by Emperor Xing'an himself.
The Crown Prince, who had been standing behind Bu Luoyu since a while ago, asked his mother in confusion, "Mother, what did you say to Father?"
Bu Yuluo happily whispered in the prince's ear: "Let your father marry Princess Mingyue to Emperor Che."
The prince frowned visibly, said nothing, and just silently looked at his mother who was in high spirits.
Emperor Xing'an immediately proposed to Emperor Che, "I have a daughter who is outstanding in appearance, well-behaved and sensible. She is of marriageable age and I am worried about her marriage."
After Emperor Xing'an finished speaking, he made a gesture to Princess Mingyue who was sitting in the audience. Princess Mingyue was wearing a goose yellow embroidered palace dress, and the gold ornaments on her temples were of the most complicated style.
It's not hard to see that everything she uses is the best.
Zhai Yun and Feng Chenyi had never seen this princess before. She was a little younger, only about fifteen or sixteen years old, and her face was full of youthfulness.
When she heard that Emperor Xing'an was going to grant her a marriage, she walked out with a look of panic on her face.
Princess Mingyue walked to the center and knelt down. Xuanyuan Che had no extra expression on his face. He just looked at Princess Mingyue carefully. Princess Mingyue also secretly glanced at Emperor Che a few more times.
