Chapter 382 Get Out

"Now that you have spoken, if I do not agree to this matter, it would seem that I am a little inhumane..."

But if I agreed so easily, why do I feel so unhappy?

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for granting me and Lady Ping'an a marriage!" He Yanxiu kowtowed again, "Long live the emperor."

As long as you express your gratitude quickly enough, the emperor will have no room for regret.

Qin Yishu: "..."

Did he say anything? Is this the beginning of thanksgiving?

This He Yanxiu is really becoming more and more unreasonable! But then again, it seems that whenever it comes to matters related to Ping'an County Lady, He Yanxiu has never been reasonable.

Qin Yishu rolled his eyes and laughed, "I remember saying before that I can arrange your marriage for you, but you owe me two favors."

"Now that you have come to me to ask for my permission to marry you, I can agree to your request first. However, I will not issue the decree of marriage until you repay my favor."

"Your Majesty, please speak." He Yanxiu responded in a loud voice.

As long as you agree to the marriage, everything else will be easy.

"Well, for one thing..." Qin Yishu paused, speaking in a low voice, "You must promise me that no matter when and where, you must protect the lives of Concubine Shu, You'er, the Fifth Princess, and the fetus in Concubine Shu's belly at all costs."

"I understand," He Yanxiu replied.

"What I mean is, regardless of everything." Qin Yishu emphasized.

He Yanxiu looked at Qin Yishu with a sharp gaze, "I just said that, I understand."

Seeing He Yanxiu's back straight, Qin Yishu nodded slightly, "This is the first one, this is the second one..."

"Your Majesty means that there is a second one?" He Yanxiu was surprised.

"Of course." Qin Yishu looked at He Yanxiu in surprise, "Didn't I say before that you owe me two favors and need to promise me two things?"

"That's right." He Yanxiu nodded. "So the emperor just said that he wanted me to agree to something first. Only after I agree to one thing can he issue the imperial decree to grant me marriage. I have already agreed."

"Then the emperor said that he would do it regardless of the consequences, and I agreed. So, in total, I have agreed to two things from the emperor."

Qin Yishu: "..."

He Yanxiu really understood the plot of this text.

Forget it, if he looked at the root of the matter, this was all he needed He Yanxiu to do, nothing else mattered.

Just return a favor.

As an elder, it is not appropriate for him to argue too much with the younger ones. Moreover, if He Yanxiu can get married, it will also relieve Concubine Shu of a difficult problem.

Qin Yishu rubbed his brows helplessly, "Since you have agreed to these two things, then I will not break my promise and will only grant you the marriage."

"It's just that it's the new year, so it's not appropriate to confer titles or grant marriages. Right now, Prince Jia's wedding is imminent, and the matter of the eldest prince marrying a concubine is also on the agenda. Let's wait until the end of spring or the beginning of summer to grant marriages."

By then, the Ministry of Rites will have some free time to make proper arrangements and let Concubine Shu be happy too.

And when the time comes to grant the marriage, it will take half a year to a year to prepare, so it would be appropriate to get married at the end of this year or next spring.

Seeing that Qin Yishu had already agreed to this, He Yanxiu did not force it too much and kowtowed to express his gratitude, "Thank you, Your Majesty. I am grateful to you."

"In addition, I have another matter, please approve it, Your Majesty."

"What's the matter?" Qin Yishu narrowed his eyes, feeling a little curious.

Is there anything else that He Yanxiu could talk about together with his request for marriage?

"Ping'an County Lord has made great contributions in saving the Third Prince's life. Your Majesty, would you consider giving her another reward? I propose that Ping'an County Lord be given the title of County Master as a reward."

Qin Yishu: "..."

Come on, come on, let the emperor give this to you, okay? From the moment you stepped into the hall, the beads on the abacus were flying with sparks!

This He Yanxiu...

From going to the Hong Zheng Mansion to provide disaster relief, to Su Yujin's brilliant performance during the epidemic, and then to returning to Beijing to ask for a title... He Yanxiu's every step was carefully planned and every step was planned.

It can truly be said that he is deeply in love.

Qin Yishu sometimes wondered whether Su Yujin, who was such an expert in medicine, had used some kind of medicine on He Yanxiu, making him so obsessed with her and willing to do anything for her.

But if you think about it carefully, this kind of unbridled and all-consuming love can only happen at this age...

As people get older, their thoughts become more complicated. Family, power, interests... all of them are ties and burdens.

That is why the love described in operas and storytellers is always so fascinating, moving and attracting so many people.

He Yanxiu is a very affectionate person. If he can treat Su Yujin like this, he will also treat his relatives like this.

Qin Yishu was filled with emotion, but his eyes showed a complicated light. He said with a smile, "If we talk about rewards, I have already given many things before. The promotion of a county lord to a county lady is not a small matter. Let me think about it carefully."

Although he didn't agree, he didn't reject it outright either, so there's still hope.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

The emperor was grateful to Su Yujin for what happened to Qin Peiyou, but the incident was caused by brothers fighting and killing each other, which was a family shame and could not be made public.

If you want to raise Su Yujin's status further, you need a more suitable opportunity.

He Yanxiu understood the matter and kowtowed again, "I understand. Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty."

"Is there anything else?" Qin Yishu glanced at He Yanxiu.

You better be okay.

"Your Majesty is busy with government affairs, and I dare not disturb you." He Yanxiu bowed.

"Take those pastries and get out." Qin Yishu waved his hands impatiently.

If he talked to He Yanxiu for a while longer, he felt that he would lose several years of his life.

"Yes, I will take my leave."

He Yanxiu left Chongyang Hall carrying the food box prepared by Minghai. ——After the sixteenth day, everything came back to life and everyone started to get busy.

Everywhere, there is a thriving scene.

Su Yujin's mansion has been renovated and is basically in good order.

Su Yujin asked Ai Cao and others to start packing up their things and move over there one after another, preparing to officially move in in March.

Lou Yanlin and Xiaoguai came to the door once to say goodbye.

The two brothers had already packed up everything, even the carriage was parked outside the alley.

Su Yujin asked someone to pack a lot of food and gave it to Lou Yanlin, "Keep these as snacks on the road. Be careful along the way."

"Thank you, Lord Ping'an." Lou Yanlin bowed again and again with Xiaoguai.

"After my brother and I finish our housework, we will come back to see Sister Su." Xiaoguai said solemnly.

Su Yujin was his savior, and he remembered her.

But this time when I return home, I don’t know what it will be like, or when I can return…

Xiaoguai's face was full of reluctance.

"Okay." Su Yujin agreed with a smile, and then said, "Then you must come back early."

Qin Yishu: Before I lose my temper, get out with my blessing
