Chapter 280 Princess Marriage
"Your Majesty, the princess gives you..."
The eunuch rushed in and suddenly saw Mu Junyan standing next to the emperor, and his voice stopped abruptly.
The emperor frowned: "Xuan Xuan?"
The eunuch handed over Zhao Luoxuan's secret letter with both hands carefully: "Yes, Your Majesty."
The emperor impatiently took it and untied the belt. He unfolded it and looked at it. His brows suddenly relaxed: "She is really my good daughter! My dear Lord Mu, look."
Mu Junyan took it and took a look, his expression changed slightly: "Are you really willing, Princess?"
"This is Xuanxuan's handwritten letter. When she was determined to go to southern Xinjiang, her mother felt sorry for her and left her an 800-mile express line. If she encountered any difficulties or wanted to come back, she could use this line to report to the capital. There is her logo on the letterhead, and no one knows about this."
The letter said that apart from Gu Huan, she was the most suitable person for the marriage.
This is also what she can do to fulfill Qi Jun's wish.
The emperor's eyes turned red as he spoke: "I didn't expect that Xuanxuan would be the most sensible one in the end."
Zhao Luoxuan solved the problem for him, preventing Mu Junyan from going crazy and posing a threat to his position.
After all, it was he who promised Jiang Ruoxi and Wang Heng to go to Southern Xinjiang.
…
Duan Yu looked at the girl in the room, who was wearing a cloak and a hat and whose face could not be seen clearly, with an unfathomable expression.
"Sixth Princess, I have seen you and know your story. You came to Southern Xinjiang because you deeply love Qi Jun and you have remained faithful to him. Now you say you want to marry me on behalf of Gu Huan? I doubt your sincerity. Please give me a reason."
Zhao Luoxuan took off her hat, revealing her delicately made-up face, and bowed to him solemnly.
"Because I feel sorry for the two children."
Duan Yu didn't expect that this was the reason she mentioned.
Zhao Luoxuan raised her eyes to look at him: "I heard that when the king was young, he and his mother had a very difficult time. The pain of separation between mother and child must have touched the king deeply. Sister Huan just gave birth to a pair of children. She can't let the blood of the Mu family flow to Dali. It is even more impossible for her to be willing to leave a pair of children."
Duan Yu's expression was slightly moved.
He smiled and said, "But I only marry women I like."
Zhao Luoxuan smiled: "Your Majesty can like many women. What you need is a helpful wife, not a marriage that will cause another war. If you insist on marrying Sister Huan, even if my father agrees, the Mu family army and I will not agree. If you really want to fight, we will accompany you to the end!"
The girl's strong back, like her proud character, made Duan Yu look at her with new eyes.
I couldn't help but give her a thumbs up: "I didn't expect the rumored Zhao Luoxuan to have such courage."
Zhao Luoxuan seemed to be encouraged, and her tone became more determined: "Your Majesty knows very well that marriage between the two countries is the long-term solution. If you can't marry Daliang's queen, your princess won't be able to marry either. And I am no worse than Sister Huan.
Your Majesty should also be aware that I have skilled craftsmen at my disposal, and I can also build a trade route between Dali and Daliang. ”
Duan Yu nodded: "Princess, you are absolutely right. This point is very attractive to me."
Zhao Luoxuan mustered up the courage to look for him. She was a little nervous at first and tried to remain calm, but when she heard his tone soften, she felt relieved.
Then he took advantage of the victory and continued: "The king only wants a helpful princess, then you and I can be a loving couple on the surface, and I won't care how many women you like behind your back. But, you want to like Sister Huan, that is absolutely not allowed!"
Duan Yu couldn't help but laugh: "You are very protective of Gu Huan. You even gave up your loyalty to Qi Jun for her."
Zhao Luoxuan's eyes suddenly turned red: "No."
"Since I want to help the king, there are naturally conditions."
Duan Yu raised his eyebrows: "Please speak."
"I will marry with my husband's spirit tablet, and I will be allowed to set up a mourning hall where I live so that I can worship him."
Duan Yu said slowly: "You dare to say it."
"Mutual benefit and reciprocity are naturally conditional on each other."
Zhao Luoxuan faced his gaze without any fear.
Duan Yu smiled and said, "You are quite different from the first time you came to Juzhou."
Zhao Luoxuan was surprised: "The king has seen me?"
"nature."
Duan Yu bent down slightly and leaned towards Zhao Luoxuan: "Do you believe that my target is actually you?"
Zhao Luoxuan was stunned.
Duan Yu stood up and laughed loudly: "The princess I want to marry must be willing. It would be a good idea to use Gu Huan to force you to marry voluntarily."
Zhao Luoxuan was stunned.
Duan Yu stopped smiling and looked at her seriously.
"Gu Huan is a woman I like and admire. I have a history with her and she has been kind to me. However, you are the only woman in Daliang who is most suitable to be my princess. As a legitimate princess of Daliang, your status matches, but if you are not willing, I will not accept you."
Zhao Luoxuan suddenly felt like she had been tricked.
A pretty face was burning with anger.
Duan Yu changed the subject: "Of course, if you don't want to, then Gu Huan will be the only one left. I am not afraid of a fight."
Zhao Luoxuan felt angry as if she was being led by the nose.
But, I can't get angry and I have to follow other people's plans.
I'm really pissed off!
In the blink of an eye, it was the eve of Mid-Autumn Festival.
Gu Huan finally saw Chi Yan again after he had been missing for a long time.
He had a scruffy beard and looked exhausted. When he saw Gu Huan, he couldn't hide his excitement and bowed, "Madam."
Gu Huan stared at his red eyes and asked excitedly, "Is it done?"
"Yes, it's done. The imperial edict will arrive tomorrow. The battle has already begun in Bianjing."
Gu Huan covered her chest and said, "Is he okay?"
Soon, she straightened herself up: "He will be fine, he will definitely come back, he knows his wife and children are waiting for him!"
The next day.
The imperial edict that everyone had been anxiously awaiting arrived.
Jiang Ruoxi ordered the nanny to go out and listen to see what imperial decree the emperor had issued and when the marriage was set.
Wang Heng, Gu Huan, Zhao Luoxuan and the old lady were all waiting in the prefectural government office.
The eunuch who announced the decree looked exhausted, and it was obvious that he had rushed here without sleep.
He said in a hoarse voice: "Sixth Princess, please listen to my order."
Gu Huan was stunned and quickly looked at Zhao Luoxuan.
Has her title of princess been restored?
Zhao Luoxuan didn't dare to look at Gu Huan, she stepped forward and knelt down: "Your servant obeys your command."
"The Emperor, in compliance with the Will of Heaven, proclaims: I aspire to achieve peace and harmony among all nations. However, the tranquility of the borders is related to the well-being of all people. In order to consolidate diplomatic relations, I have agreed to the request of the Kingdom of Dali for a marriage alliance, and I have approved the policy to establish a friendly relationship between Qin and Jin, put an end to the threat of war, and lay the foundation for peace. My beloved daughter, Princess Shuhe, is gentle, prudent, dignified, elegant, knowledgeable, kind-hearted, talented and beautiful, and has a far-reaching reputation. She is a role model for women in the world. Now I specially order Princess Shuhe to marry the King of Dali to unite the two countries and turn hostility into friendship. I hope that the Princess and the King of Dali will respect each other like guests, and promote the prosperity of the two countries. Announce this to the world so that everyone can hear it."
Gu Huan was shocked.
Wang Heng lowered his head and listened, saying nothing.
When he was writing Eight Hundred Miles in a Rush, Zhao Luoxuan found him and asked him if he wanted to help Jiang Ruoxi. He told her very clearly that he wanted to kill Jiang Ruoxi.
Therefore, during the 800-mile urgent journey, he laid a foreshadowing, hinting that the emperor had another candidate.
At the same time, Zhao Luoxuan's 800-mile express was sent out.
That bitch Jiang Ruoxi, don’t even think about ruining the reputation established by his ancestors of the Wang family of Langya.
The eunuch who delivered the decree smiled and said, "Congratulations, Your Highness the Princess. Congratulations, Your Highness the Princess. In twenty days at the latest, the Princess's full uniform, ceremonial guards and dowry will arrive. By then, you will be married in a grand ceremony."
Zhao Luoxuan's face was calm, and she accepted the order with both hands: "Your servant accepts the order."
She took the imperial edict and turned to face Gu Huan, who was stunned.
With a slight smile, he said, "Sister Huan, I can finally help you this time."
Gu Huan walked forward with red eyes and held her hand: "You don't have to do this. If you don't want to, no one can force us."
Even if the imperial decree required her to marry, it would be impossible.
Mu Junyan was the first one to disagree.
Gu Huan was not in a hurry at all, but she never expected that Zhao Luoxuan would marry in her place.
"I volunteered. I wrote the petition myself and sent it to Bian Jing. I didn't tell my sister in advance because I was worried that it wouldn't work out and I would be ashamed to face my sister. I was afraid that my sister would think I was useless."
"You!" Gu Huan's tears welled up in her eyes.
Zhao Luoxuan smiled with tears in her eyes: "Sister Huan, I am still useful, right?"
"you……"
Zhao Luoxuan suddenly moved closer and whispered in her ear: "Don't worry, Qi Jun will go with me."
Gu Huan couldn't hold back any longer and tears started to fall.
Zhao Luoxuan has grown up.
…
"What? You said Zhao Luoxuan has regained her princess status? She's going to marry in place of Gu Huan?"
Jiang Ruoxi jumped up in anger.
The nanny looked at Jiang Ruoxi with red eyes: "Miss..."
What can she do?
Zhao Luoxuan is a legitimate princess, so her marriage is more legitimate than Jiang Ruoxi's.
Jiang Ruoxi paced around the room irritably, her eyes gloomy: "Who cares who she is, just follow the plan! Zhao Luoxuan is dead, let's see if Duan Yu wants me!"
