Chapter 757: Wedding?

Dean Tan, who went with us, sent a distress signal through the screen wall of Tianya Academy!

Something must have gone wrong.

The more Jiang Lianzhu thought about it, the more uneasy she became.

After bringing her daughter back to the palace, Jiang Lianzhu asked someone to take her daughter back to Fengyi Palace to play. She went to the imperial study with a heavy heart to talk to Dabao.

As I approached the imperial study, I heard someone talking inside.

"The Third Princess's wedding is approaching. We arranged this marriage when the late Emperor was still alive. Logically, the marriage ceremony should proceed as planned..."

"However, if the Emperor has any objections, we can continue to negotiate peace with the Darong Kingdom."

…

These are several old officials from the Ministry of Rites speaking.

Immediately afterwards, Jiang Lianzhu heard Dabao's voice.

Dabao said, "I also think this matter can be discussed again. Marriage is an old tradition. Now that our Da'an Kingdom is prosperous, there is no need to use marriage as a means to make friends with other countries. Our Da'an Kingdom has few princesses to begin with, and I also promised the late emperor that I would take good care of the princesses. So, today, I have summoned you, my dear ministers, and the third princess to come here to hear your opinions, especially the third princess's. If the third princess is unwilling, I will negotiate with the Darong Kingdom again..."

He spoke in a friendly manner, and anyone could hear from Dabao's tone that he was supporting the princess.

I want to cancel this marriage.

The Da'an Kingdom repelled the coalition forces of the five nations, won a complete victory, recovered lost territory, and seized six cities from the Aquarius Kingdom, hundreds of thousands of taels of gold, and various valuables. Now the Da'an Kingdom has the qualifications to cancel the engagement with the Darong Kingdom.

Originally, the Da'an Kingdom had a new emperor, and the bad peace treaty signed by the previous emperor could be negotiated again.

At this time, a small, soft female voice spoke, "Xuanruo is deeply grateful for the emperor's care. The marriage is a matter of great importance to the country. If we repent easily, it will damage the reputation of our Da'an Kingdom. If we discuss it again, it is probably not easy for the Darong Kingdom to negotiate. They will definitely ask our Da'an Kingdom for money or compensation. Xuanruo is just a little girl, and it is not worth the emperor's trouble for me. In addition, Xuanruo's marriage was arranged by the late emperor. Xuanruo is the late emperor's daughter. Xuanruo still wants to obey her father's order and is willing to marry. She is willing to go to Darong Kingdom and make a small contribution to our Da'an Kingdom..."

There was silence in the imperial study!

Several senior ministers looked at each other, and they were all ready to follow the emperor's words and continue.

It is possible to break off the engagement with the Darong Kingdom, but it will definitely come at a high price.

After all, it was an agreement between the late emperor and others. No matter how you look at it, it is a unilateral breach of contract on his part. He is the heir apparent, and the late emperor's face must be maintained. If the prince of Darong Kingdom wants to make a big demand, he will definitely have to pay compensation in money and property.

If the little emperor tells others about his love for his cousin at all costs, everyone will praise him.

They all thought that the little emperor was a really good person and that the people were blessed.

I have thought of a lot of words of praise in my mind, and I am just waiting for the moment when the princess bursts into tears of gratitude, so that everyone can give her a wave of high-level praise.

Finally, the princess said she was willing to marry?

And what he said was so righteous!

This made them feel uncomfortable and they were stunned.

At this time, everyone saw Jiang Lianzhu walk in.

Jiang Lianzhu smiled brightly, breaking the silence. "Third Princess, our little emperor is truly thinking about you. Don't be shy, just speak directly."

The third princess hurriedly paid her respects to Jiang Lianzhu.

After thinking for a while, he lowered his head and said, "Xuan Ruo naturally knows that the emperor has good intentions, but what Xuan Ruo said just now was also sincere. Xuan Ruo is willing to go to the imperial court for marriage. Xuan Ruo was born in the imperial court and was told of this mission by his father since he was a child. Xuan Ruo has always been working towards this goal. He taught himself the official language of the Darong Kingdom and learned a lot about the customs and etiquette of the Darong Kingdom. Xuan Ruo feels that he can survive well in the Darong Kingdom. Don't worry about Xuan Ruo."

Dabao frowned. Most girls were unwilling to marry far away, let alone a marriage for a foreign country. In history, few princesses who were married for a foreign country could live long, and they suffered all kinds of grievances and hardships.

He also had good intentions, and of course, he also wanted to use this incident to once again enhance the national prestige of Da'an!

Let all countries know that their Da'an Kingdom has become strong.

But the third princess seems determined to get married?

Then he couldn't force it.

"In that case, I won't force you. Go back and think about it! If you change your mind, come back to me. Time is running out anyway. The Ministry of Rites received a letter from the Darong Kingdom urging marriage today."

"Okay, thank you, Your Majesty."

The third princess retreated timidly.

Several other senior officials said, "Your Majesty, this Third Princess must have been living alone for too long and has a mental problem!!"

"However, what the Third Princess said is not completely unreasonable. She is willing to follow the marriage arranged by the late emperor. She is also a filial person. She also wants to save our Da'an Kingdom some trouble. If she rashly breaches the contract, our Da'an Kingdom will have to pay some compensation..."

"If the Third Princess is determined to marry, then let her go. If she gets wronged, we in Da'an will take her back."

…

Dabao waved his hand and said, "We can discuss this matter later. You can go down first."

Everyone went down.

Only Jiang Lianzhu and her son were left.

Jiang Lianzhu advised, "You mean well, but the Third Princess didn't expect that she actually wanted to marry. That's surprising. Don't worry, she wants to marry, so we should respect her wishes!"

Dabao looked calm, "I really didn't expect that this person's thinking is different from everyone else's. The Third Princess has lived alone since she was a child, with a very low sense of existence and seems weak. I didn't expect that she has her own opinions. Naturally, I respect her opinions."

As a cousin and the emperor, he has done everything he could.

He is willing to pay any price to keep the third princess safe.

With so many ministers present to witness it, his good reputation must have spread.

I just feel a little uncomfortable.

Dabao added,

"If she really wants to marry, our Da'an Kingdom will prepare a larger dowry for her and send a high-ranking minister to escort her. This will show our Da'an Kingdom's respect for her and increase her status. This will make the Darong Kingdom think twice before bullying her. This is all I can do."

Jiang Lianzhu suddenly had an idea.

Sending a wedding? ?

"That's already very kind. How about this? I'll personally marry her off! Send her to the Darong Kingdom! After she gets married, I'll come back..."

Dabao looked up and said, "Mother, I can send a first-rank minister. There's no need for you to go in person."

Jiang Lianzhu stopped beating around the bush.

"I want to go to Darong Country. Today at Tianya Academy, I received a message for help from Dean Tan Tao..."

So she told Dabao everything about the strange things that happened at Tianya Academy that day.
