Chapter 509 Can I ask the Emperor to grant me the marriage?
"I was careless just now. It's two wins in three games." Mu Xi said unconvinced.
The Sixth Princess' eyes widened as she looked at her angrily, her eyes seemed to be saying: Princess Mu Xi, do you still want to cheat?
"When the competition started, there was no mention of best of three games. Winning is winning. Princess Mu Xi, you can't afford to lose, right?" The Sixth Princess puffed out her chest. She was much favored in the palace because of her health. She was simple and straightforward, but she could say anything.
"That's not what I meant, I..." Princess Mu Xi wanted to explain when she heard her brother's voice.
"Mu Xi." Prince Yongzhao came over, raised his hand to his chest, and performed the Yongzhao etiquette. "Losing is losing. We in Yongzhao will not be able to afford to lose. The women of Nanyue are so powerful. We in Yongzhao are convinced."
"We in South Vietnam are the most powerful." The Sixth Princess said proudly, walking towards the bright yellow figure. She bowed and said, "Qin'er greets father. Long live father."
"Long live the emperor!"
A group of people knelt down in a huge crowd, and Xiao Jiuyue followed suit. Out of the corner of his eye, he only caught a glimpse of the bright yellow edge of a robe. The Emperor of South Vietnam, um, I wonder what he looks like?
"Stand up."
Emperor Jing of Nanyue was in a good mood and said, "That person..."
"Donggui is Miss Xiao's maid." The Sixth Princess seemed to know what the emperor was thinking and took the initiative to introduce her.
"Reward." Emperor Jing was in a good mood and laughed heartily, saying, "Prince Yongzhao, it seems that the women of Nanyue are as capable as men!"
Prince Yongzhao boasted to Emperor Jing again. Ever since the war was lost and Prince Yongzhao decided to send his sister to marry, he knew clearly that if he wanted the people of Yongzhao to live a good life, he had to stop the war.
Otherwise, it is unknown whether the royal family of Yongzhao still has the surname Mu.
Prince Mu Lian of Yongzhao praised: "Your country is truly full of talented people. I admire you."
While they were talking, Xiao Jiuyue secretly looked at the emperor. Well, he had a small mustache, and his majesty was not to be offended, with the aura of a superior.
Jun Lie should look like his mother, with incredibly handsome features.
"Sixth girl, we will set off for the hunting ground tomorrow. You girls must compete with Princess Muxi of Yongzhao again." After the emperor's words, some people present were eager to try, while others were melancholy.
I'm already exhausted after a whole day in the palace, and now I have to go to the hunting ground tomorrow?
Xiao Jiuyue was thinking about the ancient hunting grounds. What was the difference between that and her riding a horse to the back mountain to hunt?
There are people everywhere and rules everywhere. She might as well go to the back mountain to play.
"Thank you, Father." The Sixth Princess looked at Princess Muxi provocatively and said, "Princess Muxi, we will have a good competition later!"
Unlike the martial arts competition, the Sixth Princess was obviously very confident in this hunting.
Among the six arts, many women are very good at horse riding and archery, especially Du Ting. Although she is quite annoying, her archery skills are also very good in Shengjing.
"I will definitely win!" Princess Mu Xi said proudly.
After exchanging harsh words, the Sixth Princess led everyone to the Imperial Garden to enjoy the flowers and listen to opera.
Xiao Jiuyue took advantage of the break to continue resting in Chengxiang Garden.
"Miss, I went to inquire. The Wang family wanted Feng Yan as their daughter-in-law. The Feng family was also afraid of the capital punishment, so they directly pushed out their concubine's daughter, Feng Su. She doesn't have a strong presence, but in terms of appearance, she is more beautiful than Feng Yan."
Dong Gui told Xiao Jiuyue the news she had inquired about. She said, "Royal Concubine, did you agree to it so easily?" This would damage the Second Prince's reputation.
"I guess the Wang family used it in exchange." Dong Gui reminded: "Master Wang is the general who suppressed the rebellion. His official position is one level higher than Miss Cui Yao's elder brother."
"Hmm." Xiao Jiuyue understood. The Crown Prince now has the Prime Minister behind him, so the Imperial Concubine naturally wants to push the Second Prince to the throne. However, compared with the Prime Minister, the maternal family behind the Second Prince is naturally weaker. If he can get the support of the Wang family, it will be great for the Second Prince.
Xiao Jiuyue rested on the couch, basking in the warm sunshine, and asked curiously, "Why did the Wang family go to such great lengths to marry Feng Yan?"
"This..." Dong Gui paused: "I don't know."
"Knock knock." There was a knock on the door. The moment Dong Gui saw Jun Lie, she was stunned for a moment and subconsciously wanted to salute: "Master."
"Guard outside."
Jun Lie climbed over the wall and entered the yard. Before he entered the house, he saw Xiao Jiuyue basking in the sun by the window. She was drowsy, and the white jade hairpin in her black hair looked particularly beautiful.
"Who?" Xiao Jiuyue keenly noticed someone approaching. She opened her eyes and was surprised when she saw Jun Lie. Then she said, "No wonder the Sixth Princess insisted that I rest in this courtyard. I'm afraid you arranged this?"
There are many places for the female members of the family to rest, but the Sixth Princess left Chengxiang Garden directly to Xiao Jiuyue, and also brought Su Su and Madam Jiang together. Xiao Jiuyue had a courtyard to herself. At first, Xiao Jiuyue thought that the Sixth Princess wanted to thank her, but now it seems that she was asked by someone else?
"It was me who asked Sixth Sister to arrange for you to live in this courtyard." Jun Lie admitted directly. He walked to the window, and when he stood in front of it, his line of sight was exactly the same as Xiao Jiuyue's. He placed his hand on the window, and his eyes fell on the hairpin in her hair. "Can I ask my father for a marriage?"
His voice was as gentle as water, and in his deep eyes, it seemed as if only Xiao Jiuyue was left. His eyes were burning, and his hand resting on the window had veins jumping out of excitement and nervousness.
Xiao Jiuyue raised her eyes, her gaze tracing Jun Lie's eyebrows and eyes, and said, "Is it so easy for the prince to choose a concubine?" His eyebrows, eyes and facial features really suited her aesthetic taste. The past was like scenes from a movie. Now that she had made the decision, she was not the type to be hesitant.
Let's take a gamble. If it works, she will naturally be happy. If not, then they can get a divorce. It's worth it to have such a handsome man as her husband and the father of her child.
"If it were anyone else, naturally not." Jun Lie's lips curled slightly, and his slightly cold face softened a lot because of this smile. He said: "I have a disease. As the only woman who can touch me, he will naturally agree."
Xiao Jiuyue propped up his chin with one hand and asked, "You want to take advantage of tomorrow's hunt?"
"Yes, men and women are separated when hunting, but the forests intersect. When the time comes, we just need to create an accident, I get hurt, and you save me, that's all."
Jun Lie had already thought about it. Only in such an accident, it would be natural for Xiao Jiuyue to save him.
Xiao Jiuyue, who won't make him allergic, is the daughter of a marquis. The Xiao family's unjust, false, and wrong cases have been redressed, and his father will agree.
