engagement?
Song Xia hadn't thought about these things yet.
Jin Beichen looked directly at her and said, "I won't force you to answer now. Tell me whenever you've thought it through. I'm willing to wait as long as it takes."
Upon hearing this...
Song Xia looked at him and said, "Isn't it said that marriages have always been arranged by parents and matchmakers? If you want to get engaged to me, and you tell your father no, do you think he will agree?"
Yes, will he agree?
Definitely not.
Thinking of this, Jin Beichen said, "If you're willing, I'll ask the Emperor for an imperial decree to grant us this marriage. With that decree, even if my father is unhappy, he won't be able to do anything about it..."
An imperial decree granting a marriage?
If that were the case, she would have no choice but to marry him.
Otherwise, that would be defying an imperial decree.
If they don't do that, it might not be easy for them to be together.
After weighing the options, Song Xia said, "Okay!"
Jin Beichen originally thought Song Xia would need a few days to consider it, but he never expected her to be so decisive.
He couldn't hide his joy and picked her up: "Song Xia, are you really sure?"
Song Xia nodded.
She continued, "We can request the imperial decree for marriage, but we must not let anyone else know about it for now. Also, I don't want to get married so soon. Can we decide the wedding date ourselves?"
"I will explain this to the Emperor."
Jin Beicheng said to Song Xia.
He happened to be planning to return to the capital anyway, so he decided to go back and talk to the emperor about it in person.
The words were spoken.
Jin Beichen thought of Song Laosi and the others: "Xiaxia, will your parents agree? Should we talk to them first, or should I propose marriage first, and then go back to the capital to talk to the Emperor about this?"
"My parents aren't a problem, as long as you take care of things on your end."
Song Xia told Jin Beichen to come back and propose marriage to their family again.
Jin Beichen listened to her.
After chatting for a while, the two went back to their respective places.
Today is Lunar New Year's Eve.
Jin Beichen and the others weren't home and didn't have to stay up all night, but they had agreed to get together for a big meal that evening.
Fang Zheng and Yun Liu'er spent the New Year with Song Xia and the others again this year.
We'll stay up together to welcome the New Year.
Yun Liuer is now more than seven months pregnant, and she looks rounder than before.
It has become much plumper.
She has a good appetite, but she's worried that if she continues eating like this, the baby will grow too big and it will be difficult to give birth.
She didn't dare eat that much afterwards.
...
Jin Beichen was gone for several months, during which time he only visited the Space Supermarket a few times.
On Song Xia's fifteenth birthday, he gave her some gifts, but never came back.
This inevitably made Song Xia feel uneasy.
Not long after.
Song Xia learned the reason from Tuoba Zhen.
Jin Beichen went back and immediately sought out the Emperor, hoping he would grant him a marriage.
The Emperor spoke first.
They said they would arrange a marriage for him.
Not to mention the arranged marriage, it was even his daughter who was betrothed to him.
Jin Beichen immediately asked the Emperor to withdraw the decree and stated that he had someone he loved and would not marry anyone else.
The emperor was naturally unhappy.
The two remained locked in a stalemate.
at last.
The emperor proposed that he marry both of them, and that Song Xia be his secondary wife after the marriage.
Jin Beichen refused.
The emperor was angry and placed him under house arrest.
That's how it should be.
He can also come to the Space Supermarket.
However, Jin Beichen hadn't figured out how to tell Song Xia yet.
Not wanting her to worry about him, he didn't come to see her for the time being.
Tell her about your recent situation.
Tuoba Zhen still doesn't know that the woman Jin Beichen likes is Song Xia, the immortal he speaks of.
After he finished speaking, he complained to Song Xia, "Tell me, what is it about that woman that makes him so reckless and openly reject my father?"
Song Xia opened her mouth and asked, "What will happen if he continues like this?"
"this."
Tuoba Zhen thought for a moment and said, "My father likes Jin Beicheng quite a bit. If it weren't for this, he would have exiled him long ago. But if he continues like this, he will probably still be exiled."
If he were exiled, he would have nothing left.
Tuoba Zhen then said, "Immortal, if Jin Beicheng comes here, please try to persuade him. He's worked so hard to get to where he is today; if things continue like this, his life will be ruined..."
In the Great Qi, very few people exiled there survived to reach their place of exile.
Even if we get there.
Returning to one's homeland is now extremely difficult.
Song Xia replied, "I understand."
This was Jin Beicheng's fifth day under house arrest after Tuoba Zhen left.
Although he was imprisoned, the emperor did not mistreat him, so his mental state seemed alright.
"Xiaxia, I have something to tell you. The Emperor wanted to bestow a marriage upon me, but I refused. He has now placed me under house arrest. I know what he's thinking, but I will not compromise."
"Even if I am exiled, I will not marry his daughter and make you my concubine."
"Jin Beichen, it's such a pity to give up everything you've worked so hard to achieve today..."
Song Xia hadn't said much of her advice yet.
Jin Beichen interrupted her, staring at her and saying, "Do you want me to give up on you? I can't do that, and I don't want to."
What if I give up on you?
Song Xia asked Jin Beicheng.
She would say that.
Jin Beichen had already anticipated this. He said, "Even if you give up, I won't give up. Since I've made up my mind about you, I won't change it easily. Even if it means exile, I won't change my mind."
Song Xia hugged him tightly.
"I don't want you to be like this. The thought of you being exiled and your life ruined makes my heart ache..."
"Don't be sad, I'm happy to accept it."
Jin Beichen replied to her.
Song Xia knew what he meant, slapped him and said, "You idiot..."
Suddenly I remembered something I hadn't told him.
Song Xia nestled in his arms and said, "My uncle has a son now, he's over two months old and he's so cute."
"Um."
Jin Beichen didn't say much about this topic.
Song Xia looked up and said, "Jin Beicheng, I can do it..."
"What did you say?"
Jin Beichen pretended not to understand what she meant.
Song Xia said, "What I mean is, my physical condition and everything I know can guarantee that I can safely give birth to our child. If we get together, I'll have one for you."
Isn't she afraid of pain and death?
She is not afraid.
He was afraid.
Jin Beicheng didn't want her to take any risks because of having a child.
He said exactly what he was thinking.
Song Xia pinched his cheek and said, "What are we doing? It's still a long way from having a baby. Jin Beicheng, I don't want you to be exiled. Is there any way I can help you?"
Jin Beicheng frankly admitted, "It's very difficult to change the Emperor's decision."
It's difficult, but it's not like there's no way to change it, is it?
Song Xia asked him, "Does the Emperor have anyone he particularly likes? If that person speaks up for you, is there any hope?"
Someone you really like?
After hearing what she said, Jin Beichen thought of someone.
This person is Pingyang ***.
The Emperor's older sister.
only.
She doesn't easily get involved in these kinds of things.
After Song Xia found out, she asked about Pingyang's preferences.
Jin Beichen thought for a moment and said, "I heard that Lady Pingyang loves listening to opera; she listens almost every day, but she always complains that the operas are not good..."
"Got it!"
