Chapter 379 Wujina's Choice
Ji Yunshu couldn't help but sigh, it turns out that old ginger is still wise.
Although Xiao Yu is a suitable candidate, the situation of the Prince of Lin'an's Mansion cannot be ignored.
Even though the prince and his wife were reluctant to let Xiao Yue go in marriage, they couldn't refuse directly. However, she had been loyal for so many years, and they couldn't sacrifice their only son.
Marrying a princess from Mobei is not just a matter of marrying a woman. What will happen to future generations?
Emperor Jingming only considered it for a moment before giving up the idea of letting Xiao Yu marry Wujina.
It is suitable, but it is not right.
He said to Wujina, "The prince of Lin'an is not suitable. There are so many talented people in Daxia. Princess can choose another one."
His clear refusal made Ji Yunshu feel relieved. She was actually a little afraid that the emperor would really have this idea.
Wujina was unwilling to stay in Daxia, and it was impossible for Xiao Yu to marry her, let alone take Xiao Yu away.
At this point, Wujina herself probably couldn't say it.
However, after she saw that I, Wujina, had rejected her, her expression didn't change at all, as if she had really chosen Xiao Yu at random.
I suddenly had a bad feeling.
Wu Rina, who was below, smiled and asked, "Your Majesty, can I choose anyone except Xiao Yu?"
Her tone was innocent, but Emperor Jingming was a little unsure who she would choose next.
Besides, I have already refused once, so it would be unreasonable to refuse again.
"The princess is the queen's legitimate daughter, so the man she marries must be worthy of you."
Emperor Jingming made a vague statement, avoiding the main point.
Wujina said: "If you say so, there are really not many people who are worthy of me. Why not, let's go with His Majesty the Emperor."
As she finished speaking, the hall suddenly became quiet.
The third prince was also a little confused.
The fifth prince looked at Wujina in surprise.
He had actually thought about this possibility. After all, the emperor of Daxia was not very old, there were not many people in the harem, and there were still several vacancies for concubines and noble concubines.
It is actually most appropriate for the Princess of Mobei to come to Daxia for marriage and marry the Emperor of Daxia.
However, Emperor Jingming never expressed such an intention, so they naturally did not think about it in this direction.
Now it is a bit difficult to back down.
He couldn't help but wonder what impact it would have on him if Wujina entered the harem of the Emperor of Daxia?
It would be fine if this plan goes smoothly, but if not, it would not be a good thing for Wujina to marry the emperor of Daxia.
Fortunately, he felt that the emperor of Daxia did not want to marry Wujina.
This may not succeed.
Emperor Jingming did not expect that Wujina's target was him.
No sound was made for a moment.
In the past few years, he has been fighting against court officials for the queen. Now that he finally has a prince, the pressure is not so great.
What does it matter if there is another princess from Mobei now?
I thought to myself that I didn't really want to negotiate with Mobei anyway, so I might as well just refuse.
Just as he was about to speak, the Queen sitting next to him suddenly said, "If you marry the Emperor, the Princess will never be able to return to Mobei in this lifetime. Have you really thought it through?"
Her expression was calm, without any sign of embarrassment, and her tone of voice was even gentle.
She truly has the bearing of a mother who rules the country.
Ji Yunshu had actually guessed what Wujina wanted to do, and she thought the queen had guessed it too, so she asked this question.
But even so, she was somewhat impressed by the Queen's performance.
It is not something that everyone can do to be pleasant and friendly towards the woman who is going to marry their husband.
At this moment, even the emperor himself looked unhappy.
Seeing that everyone's eyes were on her, Wujina didn't show any shyness when talking about getting married. She said innocently, "I know. Even if I don't marry the emperor of Daxia, I never thought I could return to Mobei when I came here to marry."
What she said before about bringing people back to Mobei was actually a joke. Not to mention the Daxia people, even her father would not let her do that.
After hearing her say this, everyone had no objections.
In fact, it would be most appropriate for the princess from Mobei to marry into the emperor's harem.
It was because their emperor had been acting abnormally in recent years, completely devoted to the empress and wished to leave the harem empty, that they hadn't dared to bring up the matter rashly.
But now that the princess of Mobei has brought it up herself, it is naturally difficult for them to refute it.
Then everyone looked at the emperor.
However, Emperor Jingming almost blurted out the words of refusal, but was stopped by the Queen.
The Queen tugged at the Emperor's sleeve with one hand and signaled with her eyes that he should accept.
Emperor Jingming was not unaware of the Queen's intentions. He had no reasonable reason to refuse now. If he acted impulsively, the Queen would be the first person to be criticized by the ministers.
He was a little upset, and the queen whispered in his ear: "This princess is not an ordinary person. It is better to have one more friend than one more enemy."
Only then did Emperor Jingming say, "It's good that the princess doesn't feel wronged."
The legitimate princess of the King of Mobei could only be a concubine after entering the harem.
This position is not low, but she was originally the one who could inherit the throne of Mobei.
Wujina said cheerfully, "I certainly don't feel wronged to be able to marry the emperor of Daxia."
The matter seemed to be settled, and the Queen Mother sat for a while and then left.
The emperor's face looked bad, and he took the queen away.
Without these three people, the rest of the people were less reserved.
People who knew each other gathered together to chat and laugh.
Ji Yunshu returned to Zhao Shen to eat.
We caught a lot of prey today and roasted a lot of it in the kitchen.
The temperature dropped at night. Ji Yunshu smelled the aroma of barbecue and suddenly felt hungry, so he ate a lot.
Zhao Shen had to ask someone to bring her some soup to help her digest the food.
It is chilled and contains a lot of hawthorn. It tastes sour and sweet, and is good for relieving greasiness and helping digestion.
Ji Yunshu drank it all in one breath, still feeling unsatisfied.
Zhao Shen said, "It's cold after all. Drinking too much is not good for your health. Just take a walk later."
Ji Yunshu: “…”
She did eat a few more pieces of barbecue, but she wasn't too full, so there was no need to go through so much trouble.
Just as she was about to say something, Zhao Xuan, who was sitting next to Yao, moved towards her and said, "Sister-in-law."
Ji Yunshu then asked, "Third sister, what's the matter?"
Zhao Xuan shook her head and said, "Nothing, I just feel a little bored and want to talk to my sister-in-law."
Ji Yunshu stood up and said, "Let's go outside. The hall is crowded and it's a bit stuffy."
Zhao Xuan readily agreed.
The two of them walked out together.
Zhao Shen felt that the banquet was not over yet and it might not be safe for the two of them to go out, so he asked the people around him to follow them.
When they reached a deserted place, Ji Yunshu asked, "Third sister, do you have something to tell me?"
Zhao Xuan hesitated for a moment, and seeing that no one was around, she whispered, "Sister-in-law, you need some these days."
Ji Yunshu was a little surprised. She knew she had to be careful recently, but Yao was always thorough in her work. Could it be that even Zhao Xuan could see through her thoughts?
