The emperor was also very surprised and could not hide his disappointment on his face.
He asked in surprise, "Are you married? Who is your wife? What is her family background?"
Zhou Bin mentioned his wife Xiaonan with a happy face: "My wife is a person from the wilderness, she has no family background, and no relatives at home, she and I depend on each other for life."
When the ministers on the side heard this, they realized that his wife was a peasant woman in the wilderness, and was probably so ugly that she could not be seen by others.
Everyone had already started laughing at Zhou Bin in their hearts, thinking that he was really stupid.
Now that His Majesty has asked in person, it is obvious that he wants to marry his precious daughter to him. He actually said in public that he already has a wife. Isn't this embarrassing for His Majesty?
What's more, the princess was right next to him. She was a famous princess in the Dayong Kingdom and was very precious.
Now that she can get His Majesty to speak personally, it is clear that she also has a crush on Zhou Bin.
This is something that many people would not even dare to dream of, but he openly said that he was already married. It was obvious that he did not want to marry the princess!
Such a person is really rare. The more people look at him, the more they think Zhou Bin is stupid, wasting such a good opportunity.
The emperor's expression turned a little ugly, and he continued to ask: "How old is your wife? When did you get married?"
Zhou Bin answered them one by one, and then he said loudly: "Although my wife is from the countryside, she is virtuous, polite, kind-hearted, and has been with me through thick and thin, and has never despised me."
When he said this, Zhou Bin was a little excited, and even his eyes were a little red.
Before, I was just a hard laborer and was looked down upon by others.
It was Xiaonan who took care of me every day, was especially gentle and attentive to me, and always asked about my well-being, making me feel the warmth of human love.
Zhou Bin's words stabbed into Princess Ruyi's heart like a knife. She had become more and more obsessed with Zhou Bin recently, to the point where she could not extricate herself.
She was even willing to sacrifice herself for Zhou Bin. As long as Zhou Bin was willing, she would be willing to be just a concubine.
But she was the most noble princess of the Darong Kingdom and the apple of her father's eye. Her father would never allow her to marry a married man.
As a result, Princess Ruyi's face became more and more ugly. She could not bear it any longer, so she covered her face and walked away in public, leaving the emperor and ministers stunned.
Zhou Bin was also shocked. Only then did he realize that it was the princess who fell in love with him.
When the emperor saw the princess's blatant loss of composure, he felt angry and distressed, but he couldn't bear to get angry with the princess.
Finally, the emperor waved his hand helplessly and asked everyone to leave.
Zhou Bin followed everyone out of the palace. He felt a little bit unbelievable.
It was not until now that he realized that the princess had long been interested in him.
Zhou Bin even felt a little stupid. No wonder the princess always felt something strange when she saw him before. So this is what she meant!
But Zhou Bin didn't care at all. He had already decided in his heart that Xiaonan would be his only wife in this life and he would never look for anyone else.
Even though this princess is beautiful and charming, and she is also a princess.
Zhou Bin didn't have any thoughts in his mind. He just wanted to go back and take Xiaonan over and live a good life with her.
On the other side, Princess Ruyi was heartbroken and ran out.
The emperor was afraid that Princess Ruyi would be too sad, so he hurriedly chased after her.
After much difficulty, she was found in the Imperial Garden. Her face was covered with tears and she was sitting in the garden crying in public.
When the emperor saw his daughter so sad, he was immediately heartbroken and hurried forward to comfort her.
"Yu'er, what's wrong with you? Stop crying. Your father feels so sad to see you crying!" The emperor took out a handkerchief to wipe his daughter's tears and comforted her.
Princess Ruyi cried and said, "Father, I don't believe it. Why is he already married? He is so young!"
The emperor also sighed: "Alas, father doesn't know either! I thought you two were a match made in heaven, but now he already has a wife. You two are really not meant to be together!"
Princess Ruyi cried even harder: "Father, I won't give up! I just like him and I want to marry him!"
The emperor said helplessly, "Silly child, he is already a married man, you can't marry him. You are the most noble princess of our Darong Kingdom, how can you marry a married man?"
Princess Ruyi looked unwilling: "Even if he has a wife, I still want to marry him!"
The emperor's face darkened. "Hmm? What nonsense are you talking about? Since he already has a wife, if you marry him, wouldn't you be his concubine? How can such a thing be allowed!"
Princess Ruyi was still unwilling to give up: "Father, you are the emperor, he dare not disobey you. Let him divorce his wife and marry me!"
The emperor was very surprised when he heard this: "My child, what are you talking about? Asking someone to divorce his wife and marry you? Ridiculous! This is absolutely not possible! If it gets out, how will our royal family maintain its reputation!"
Princess Ruyi was sad and jealous at this time. She didn't understand why a peasant woman was luckier than herself and could become Zhou Bin's wife.
I am a princess, why can't I marry him!
Princess Ruyi became angrier the more she thought about it, and her tears kept falling, and she couldn't stop them.
The emperor, standing by, was heartbroken when he saw his beloved daughter like this.
He tried his best to persuade his daughter that although this man was indeed talented, he could not bring shame to the royal family.
There are so many talented young people in the world. Why bother looking for someone who is married? You will definitely meet someone better than him in the future.
