Chapter 61: This prince would like to ask for an imperial decree to grant a marriage!
The prince held the railing on the second floor tightly and looked at Kong Dezhao.
The Prince of Nanshun has the same status in Nanshun as he does in the capital.
He has been practicing martial arts since childhood, is naturally strong, tall and brave, and is good at using a long-handled broadsword, which he must clean with blood.
It was said that he could fight tigers and bears with his bare hands. He enclosed a forest in Nanshun as an animal park. Whenever he had nothing to do, he would pick a few people from the prison and rush them into the forest, killing whatever he came across, including humans and animals.
All depends on a pair of hands.
The prince had only met him twice. Once was when he was young. The King of Nanshun was not yet a king, but just a general. He was ordered to guard Nanshun. Before leaving, he went to the palace to meet the emperor. The emperor specially allowed him to bring his son into the palace.
Kong Dezhao, who is two years younger than the prince, is half a head taller and has a stronger arm.
Kong Dezhao had no manners at the palace banquet. He didn't know how to sit or eat properly. After the meal, he even had a competition with the imperial guards.
The emperor laughed heartily and praised him for having the potential to be a great general at such a young age.
From then on, the prince disliked Kong Dezhao.
The second time they met was five years ago. King Nanshun was already King Nanshun, and Kong Dezhao was taller than his father and the bravest among the three armies.
At the palace banquet, just like before, he had another duel with the imperial guards after the meal. This time, he "accidentally" killed an attendant.
The emperor laughed heartily and praised him for the good son of a good father.
After the palace banquet, the emperor became murderous.
But King Nanshun was so powerful that he had become a giant and could not be easily shaken.
Just this year, on the emperor's birthday, the crown prince suggested that the situation could be stabilized by marriage. The family of this marriage had to be a military general. On the surface, they would be trying to show goodwill and form an alliance with Prince Nanshun, but in reality, they were buying time for the court.
The Su family is the best choice for the court.
Cousin Yu Shengsheng became the only choice for the Su family.
Now, seeing Kong Dezhao again and looking at the weak but tough Yu Shengsheng, the prince suddenly felt a trace of regret.
However, compared with the great cause, this regret disappeared in an instant.
He sat back down.
Su Yanshu walked quickly to Yu Shengsheng's side, looking concerned and nervous: "Shengsheng, are you okay..."
When he turned to the front and saw Yu Shengsheng's face clearly, his eyebrows jumped violently.
"What happened to your face?"
He glared at the other members of the Su family.
We clearly knew that Yu Shengsheng was going to marry Kong Dezhao, and we clearly knew that this face was the most crucial magic weapon, so why did this happen?
No matter how much punishment you give, you can’t punish someone in the face!
Su Dingqin snorted, "It's her."
Su Yanshu was shocked and angry, and looked at Yu Shengsheng inquiringly.
Kong Dezhao laughed heartily and was carried to the front. His eyes were like a huge net, covering Yu Shengsheng's head and brain.
When I saw the face clearly, my eyes suddenly lit up, it was so stunning.
As for the wound now, it was red, pointed at one end and wide at the other, just like a fallen petal.
It doesn't make you look ugly, but more beautiful.
Kong Dezhao touched the hideous scar from his right eyebrow to the corner of his forehead and said, "It doesn't matter. I have a scar too. It's just right. We are a good match."
Yu Shengsheng didn't know who he was, but when she saw him coming with Su Yanshu, she had a bad feeling.
Moreover, his gaze was extremely aggressive and his behavior was arrogant and rough, which was different from the people he had met before.
Her intuition told her that this person was dangerous.
When I heard him call himself "this prince", my mind went blank.
Kong Dezhao, he arrived in Beijing so soon?
What should I do?
Kong Dezhao saw that she was in a daze, like a white and soft little rabbit, and he liked her very much.
He looked at Su Dingqin and smiled coldly: "Young General, that just now was a warning from this prince to you."
"If it happens a second time, I'll shoot more than just your wristband."
He picked up a crossbow arrow and said, "It's made of high-quality cold iron. It's specially made by Nanshun. It can shoot through the breastplate."
Everyone's breath was held.
This is already a blatant threat.
Su Dingqin's expression froze.
Su Yanshu turned around and saw the prince on the second floor, and hurriedly greeted him: "Your Highness, I have fulfilled your mission. I have already welcomed the prince to the capital."
The prince smiled and nodded: "Very good, you have worked hard."
Kong Dezhao waited until the prince finished speaking before patting the two men and signaling them to turn around and face the prince.
He clasped his hands and said, "Your Highness, I am sorry that I am injured and cannot greet you."
The prince still smiled: "It's okay, you have worked hard on the journey, I have arranged a place for you to stay, and I will let Yanshu accompany you there later."
Kong Dezhao waved his hand: "No hurry, today is a good day."
He looked at Yu Shengsheng and said without disguising, "I am very happy to see Miss Yu. I will go to the palace to see His Majesty as soon as possible and ask His Majesty to grant me the marriage."
Grant marriage by imperial decree!
Everyone was shocked again.
Especially those ladies, who had looked down on Yu Shengsheng before, felt very happy to see her beautiful face disfigured.
But in the blink of an eye, the prince wants to ask the emperor to grant a marriage for her?
This helpless orphan who came to the Su family for refuge, a poor creature living in the care of others, was actually going to become the Crown Prince's consort?
What a good life!
The Su family looked at each other and felt relieved.
The Zhenqian Tower, the disfigurement, all these worries were gone.
The old lady was also relieved.
Mrs. Su was crying and laughing, and her actions of holding Yu Shengsheng were much gentler.
Yu Shengsheng felt as if struck by lightning.
Granted marriage? With Kong Dezhao? How can this be possible?
She had worked so hard for so long, even at the cost of ruining her reputation, entering the Zhenqian Tower and resolutely destroying her face, but all wasted with just a few words?
Yu Shengsheng shook off Madam Su's hand and bowed to Kong Dezhao: "Prince..."
"Miss Yu," a voice came from behind the Crown Prince, "The Crown Prince has just arrived in Beijing. You still have plenty of opportunities to talk. Let the Crown Prince have a good rest first."
Kong Dezhao looked at her with interest: "It's okay, I'm not tired, what do you want to say? Go ahead."
Su Yanshu stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Your Highness, my little sister..."
Kong Dezhao smiled grimly: "Let her speak."
When Yu Shengsheng was called by the prince just now, she regained her rationality and her impulsiveness gradually subsided.
She suddenly understood what the prince had meant when he told her in the waterside pavilion, "Soon the Su family won't dare to bully you anymore."
Sure enough, there is another bigger fire pit that can suppress the Su family.
Think about Grandma Wu and the people in the entire village.
She is not afraid of death, but there is no guarantee that she will not implicate innocent people.
If she told him now, would Kong Dezhao change his mind? Would the Su family let her go?
Never.
She cannot be impulsive. Even if she is in a desperate situation, she must be patient and look for opportunities to fight back, rather than being impulsive and making unnecessary sacrifices.
She clenched her hands and pinched her palms: "My daughter was born in a humble family, has no father or mother, and has a bad fate. I am afraid that the prince will regret it in the future."
Kong Dezhao laughed loudly: "Don't worry, I never believe in fate. Besides, as long as I am here, whatever fate I say is yours, it is yours."
"Whoever dares to say that you have a bad fate again will be beheaded!"
"As for origin, this prince no longer needs to use a woman's background to improve himself. It only depends on what I like."
He leaned forward and said, "This prince, I like you!"
