As soon as the Southern Kingdom envoy said this, everyone looked at the old emperor.
It turns out that the marriage proposal was specifically for Yuanwailang.
Oh my god! Could it be that they found out what happened to Su Juan and are here to snatch her away?
Suddenly all the court officials became anxious, staring at the old emperor with their eyes, as if they were ready to die if the emperor agreed.
Although they usually dislike Su Juan and dig into their private lives every day, which is very annoying, but no matter how annoying it is, she is still their own person, and the only shame is to be embarrassed on their own territory.
Su Juan knows so much. How can we send him to the South? What if Su Juan gets angry and tells everything out? The Great Jin will be in danger!
Those people in the South Country all have bad intentions, we must never tolerate them!
The old emperor coughed lightly twice and said, "Why are you so anxious? I didn't say that I want her to marry a foreign prince. Why are you all so anxious?"
He glanced at his ministers below: Am I that stupid! ?
Seeing that the old emperor was slow to respond, Su Juan was obviously tempted by something and gnashed her teeth. She said, "If the old man dares to use me as a marriage partner, I will expose all his bad deeds!"
Old Emperor:?
Let the whole world laugh at him!
The courtiers were excited: !!!
What's going on? We're all family! Come on, tell me!
The ministers were more excited than each other and no longer cared about the marriage. Their eager eyes stared at Su Juan.
When the old emperor heard this, his face turned dark: I haven’t said anything yet!
The old emperor, who was originally preparing to reject the marriage proposal from the Southern Kingdom, said with a stern face, "I understand your country's intention, but in our dynasty, marriages have always been decided by parents, and it is not appropriate for me, an outsider, to interfere in the marriages of my subjects. Why don't you ask Su Qing what he thinks?"
After he said this, many court officials felt guilty for him.
Su Juan said sarcastically, "Oh, now it's the parents' orders, it's not good to interfere."
Court official: That’s right, look at what Your Majesty said, he is not even blushing at all. It turns out that emperors are really thick-skinned.
So it turns out that the one who arranged the marriage for you was not you.
The old emperor said calmly: I will just sit back and watch. You have incurred the debt yourself, so you have to solve it yourself. Do you still count on me?
Do you really think no one has noticed? The secret guards have been reporting frequently in the past few days that the eldest prince of the Southern Kingdom is clearly going after Su Juan.
Chu Guang immediately stood up with the wine glass in his hand and looked at Su Juan, determined to win. "What do you think, Miss Su?"
Su Juan could only reluctantly move her buttocks and stand up, "Your Highness, you don't know that I was once married and I just divorced not long ago. The eldest prince is a rare talent, and Su Juan is really not worthy of him..."
Before Su Juan finished speaking, Chu Guang interrupted her and said, "This prince doesn't mind."
Su Juan: “?”
Everyone: “?” You don’t mind this! ?
"My Southern Kingdom is different from your Great Jin. We never pay attention to these things. The fact that you have divorced before only shows that the man before was blind. This prince has clear eyes and knows that you are a good girl."
Su Juan's words were blocked by him. Of course I know that I am a good girl!
She laughed dryly twice and continued, "The eldest prince may not know that my Su family's ancestral precepts never allow us to be concubines. Although I know what the prince wants, it is really inappropriate."
Chu Guang waved his hand and said, "It's okay. If you want the position of legal wife, I will give it to you."
When he got back, he divorced that woman. Anyway, he had married her to attract talent, and now she was no longer needed. She was just a chess piece, so why not exchange her for one he liked?
Everyone was shocked. How much did the Southern Kingdom's eldest prince love Yuanwailang that he wanted to divorce his wife whom he married to consolidate his power?
Yuanwailang is truly blessed!
When Su Juan heard this, she suppressed the urge to curse, "What a bastard! Bah!"
He has a beautiful wife at home, but he still goes out to flirt with other women. It seems that all men in the world are evil!
&t;div tentadv>The men who were innocently caught in the crossfire suddenly felt aggrieved. It was too rude of this official to scold them. They were not the eldest prince Chu, and they could not do such a thing. They were scolded in vain.
Chu Guang thought that he had shown his utmost sincerity and Su Juan would eventually agree to his request.
Su Juan sighed, "I am deeply grateful for the love of the eldest prince. I will not hide it from you now. In fact, since the divorce, I have been depressed and unhappy. I have no interest in love. I have already sworn in front of the Buddha that I will never marry again in this life. If I break this oath, I will be punished by both heaven and earth."
Everyone was shocked: Wow, this guy is so cruel!
In order to avoid the marriage alliance, he even said something like "God and man would punish him together". Aren't you afraid of retribution?
"I hope the eldest prince can understand Su Juan's suffering. I am here to apologize to you with wine."
As he spoke, Su Juan picked up the wine glass on the table and drank it in one gulp.
Alas, the bland soup is really tasteless, and fake wine is harmful to people.
The old emperor snorted coldly. If you had good drinking habits, I wouldn't have asked someone to replace your wine with water.
It’s fake wine. Are you worthy of drinking fake wine?
The court officials looked at Su Juan with sympathy. She couldn't even have a sip of good wine. Today, in order to entertain envoys from foreign courts, the wines served at the banquet were all aged fine wines!
You can't drink it on weekdays.
It’s a pity that Yuanwailang can only drink water.
Su Juan said so much, Chu Guang wanted to say something, but the envoy next to him advised, "Your Highness, Jin believes in Buddhism and vows. I'm afraid this Miss Su has indeed sworn in front of the Buddha. This is the custom of Jin, and I'm afraid it can't be forced."
But Chu Guang could see that these were just Su Juan's excuses for rejecting him and not wanting to marry.
This is the first time someone has rejected me.
This woman is really interesting.
"In that case, I won't make things difficult for Miss Su." Chu Guang smiled with his eyes bent.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief; the matter was finally resolved.
Unexpectedly, Chu Guang said, "However, Miss Su, this prince really loves you. If you ever change your mind and are willing to marry to my Southern Kingdom, I will keep my position as the principal wife for you."
Su Juan laughed twice, "Su Juan thanks the eldest prince for his kindness, so there is no need to stay."
fart!
Who wants to be your wife? How presumptuous of you!
Some people laughed out loud, because the official's words were too vulgar.
The old emperor was puzzled. How come Su Juan was so close to the daughter of the Minister of the Central Secretariat, but she didn't learn any girlish behavior?
He even felt that the son of Marquis Pingbo had been led astray by her.
Chu Guang smiled with his lips curled. He could actually see that although the Emperor of Da Jin did not say anything, his expression clearly showed that he was not happy about the marriage, and these officials of Da Jin were also protecting Su Juan.
To be protected by so many people, she must have extraordinary abilities.
It is simply impossible to ask her to marry in the Southern Country.
It's just that I finally met someone who suits my taste, so how can I let go so easily? It doesn't matter if I can't get her now, I can always get her in the future.
There is nothing Chu Guang cannot get if he wants it.
Su Juan was overwhelmed. She might as well have followed Miao Qing to Xuzhou at that time. She didn't know how she was doing and whether everything was going well.
