Throwing the question to the emperor, Chu Zhiyao fell silent.
If he really asked for Gu for Leiman, the result can be imagined.
Not only will Gu not come, but the emperor will also feel resentful towards him because of this matter. It is not difficult to imagine what happened when his own ministers were so close to foreign envoys.
"That's simply impossible."
He frowned, looking at the helpless Leiman, and after a moment of silence, he asked
"Is there really no other way?"
"or?"
Lehman proposal
"Have you tried asking the princess?"
"I heard that the princess is in jail for some reason. I'm afraid she's having a hard time. If the general could get her out, or if he could say that she wasn't responsible and clear her of suspicion, wouldn't that be a relief?"
"shut up!!"
Unable to bear it any longer, Chu Zhiyao shouted angrily
"I'm in this state now because of her! How could I possibly beg her for mercy?! Do you know what you're saying?!"
"But if you don't do this, you won't be able to save Luo Zhaozhao."
Leiman could imagine Chu Zhiyao's excitement, but at the same time, he felt it was a bit ridiculous to see him threatening his doorman without caring about his own reputation and asking him for medicine.
A few days ago, Luo Zhaozhao was a self-righteous person. He actually came to find me and planned to take risks. He also calculated that Chu Zhiyao would come back at that time, and relied on Chu Zhiyao's identity to use his insect.
This woman knew that if something happened to her, Chu Zhiyao would definitely not let Gu Qingsheng off.
Even with all the calculations, the two of them still ended up in this situation.
Hiding the mockery in his eyes, Leiman approached Chu Zhiyao
"By the way, General, I'd like to ask you, since I've never seen this Gu before, what is its specific function?"
In an instant, Chu Zhiyao's face turned pale.
Pursing his lips, Chu Zhiyao lowered his eyes.
After a moment of silence, he stood up
"I'll think of something else."
Then he stood up and left.
The yard suddenly felt empty. Leiman smiled and stood up, brushing off the non-existent dust on himself.
"Two idiots."
…
In fact, what Chu Zhiyao thought was also simple.
Since it has come to this, there is no other way out anyway. Only Luo Zhaozhao can cure the poison in his body, so he simply thought of another way than Leiman.
"Oh? You mean Miss Luo, the daughter of the Governor?"
In the Golden Palace, the emperor sat high up with a serious expression on his face. He seemed a little tired, with his eyebrows twisted into the shape of a "川" character.
"Indeed, Your Majesty."
Chu Zhiyao knelt on one knee, his head lowered but his body straight.
"Miss Luo and I are truly in love. Please, Your Majesty, grant us a marriage! Make us a couple!"
The emperor remained silent after looking at Chu Zhiyao kneeling below for a long time.
Logically speaking, a man like Chu Zhiyao, a young general with great talent and holding an important position in the court, should choose someone with a higher family background who can be of use to him in the future.
The governor of a region doesn't even have real power, and even the emperor has heard something about Luo Zhaozhao's family situation. Let alone helping her, this will only hinder Chu Zhiyao.
"I originally thought I understood you well enough, but I never expected that the general would have such delicate thoughts on matters of love."
He wanted to use his feathers to protect something, so the emperor had no reason to stop him. He immediately softened his tone.
"But I still want to ask, General Chu's request for a marriage is, after all, a matter of parents' orders and matchmaker's words. I'm afraid it would require the presence of the old general and Governor Naluo."
"Why isn't Miss Luo here today?"
Chu Zhiyao suddenly came to me, knelt down without saying a word and started asking for marriage. It seemed like a joke, so I had to ask him clearly.
Without any hesitation, Chu Zhiyao replied
"Zhao Zhao has been unwell recently, and his parents have been living in seclusion for many years. I can make the decision on this matter myself."
"I have already sent someone to inform the Governor. I hope the Emperor will sympathize with my sincere wishes and help me and Zhao Zhao get married."
"In that case, I am relieved."
The emperor leaned back, took a deep breath, and seemed to be in a very happy mood.
"Li Changde, prepare your pen and ink."
Eunuch Li came in, holding a brush and ink in his hand, and bowed to Chu Zhiyao to congratulate him. His voice was indescribably shrill.
"Congratulations to General Chu for finding his true love. When the time comes for your wedding, please give me a glass of wine to share in your joy."
"must."
Chu Zhiyao was neither humble nor arrogant, and there was no trace of emotion in his tone.
…
Soon, the auspicious decree granting the marriage was passed on to the general's mansion and the governor's mansion.
Luo Qingshan's face turned pale. Although he didn't care about his daughter, this sudden arranged marriage caught him off guard.
Then, after hearing that the person to be married was Chu Zhiyao, a look of surprise appeared on her face and she kept thanking Eunuch Li.
Gu Qingsheng in the cell also heard the news from Bai Lu. The sun was still relatively warm today, and she looked a little sleepy.
Open your eyes
"Really? He really dared to do that."
Luo Zhaozhao and Chu Zhiyao had only known each other for half a year, but Chu Zhiyao had the audacity to ask the emperor for a marriage, without caring what Luo Zhaozhao thought.
It's true that a cornered dog will jump over the wall.
"Princess, if Luo Zhaozhao and Chu Zhiyao really get married, then we..."
"rest assured."
Signaling Bai Lu to lower her guard
"They can't get married."
In the sunlight, colorful whirlpools flowed in Gu Qingsheng's eyes.
"The things Xueyi dug out last time can now be taken out."
She leaned forward close to Bai Lu and whispered something in her ear. Bai Lu understood and then left.
Seeing Bai Lu leave, Mr. Zhan reached out to grab the food box next to Gu Qingsheng. Gu Qingsheng rolled his eyes at him and put the food box on his other side.
"Hey, girl! Why are you cheating? Isn't the food in the food box for me?"
"Who told you it was for you to eat?"
Gu Qingsheng glanced at him
"I only gave you some on the first day. Why do you have to eat it every day?"
This made Zhan Lao angry. He blew his beard and glared.
"You little girl! You don't eat these things every day! It's a waste to throw them away. You might as well give them to me, an old man!"
"Besides, your lover brings you lots of food every day. Why do you keep so much for yourself? If a little girl eats too much, she will turn into a pig."
"You are the pig!"
After retorting to Mr. Zhan, Gu Qingsheng's face suddenly turned red again.
Her subconscious reaction made her not notice the meaning of Mr. Zhan's words at all.
"What old lover? What nonsense are you talking about?"
Mr. Zhan had a smug look on his face.
"Look at you, look at you! You didn't deny it at all! He's your old lover!"
"Say it again!"
He picked up a bun and threw it at Mr. Zhan. Gu Qingsheng glared at him.
