"Marriage?"
The Third Emperor Lu Yao was startled.
"nice!"
"Since ancient times, marriage has always been a very effective diplomatic means for two countries to maintain long-term stability."
"Given the current situation of Great Yan, Emperor Yanwu should choose this method to ease the relationship between the two countries."
Shang Yuce's words left the Three Emperors silent for a while.
Think about it for a moment:
"Grandmaster, as far as I know, Emperor Yanwu has no princess suitable for marriage."
"Even if he wants to send someone to marry, there is no suitable candidate, right?"
In response to his question, Shang Kece laughed:
"Your Highness, this is wrong."
"Emperor Yanwu still has a princess who has not yet left the palace."
"Although he is only fourteen years old and not yet an adult, he can be engaged to His Majesty the Emperor."
"It won't be too late to hold the wedding after she becomes mature!"
Seeing that Lu Yao was in a state of doubt, Shang Ce continued:
"Your Majesty, I have already figured out that you and the princess of Dayan are in a relationship."
"Although the results were not very good, it was of great benefit to the Great Zhou."
"I hope Your Highness will put the overall situation first."
"Huh." Lu Yao let out a long breath:
"For the sake of the Great Zhou, what's the harm in marrying Princess Dayan?"
"But, is Emperor Yanwu really willing to marry?"
In response to his question, Shang Jice showed a hint of confidence:
"Although I don't know why the old Taoist couldn't deduce the whole story about the Ye family."
"But there is no problem in finding a marriage partner for the Three Emperors."
"I can guarantee that Emperor Yanwu will definitely do this."
"Besides, the Taoist priest has also made some arrangements to ensure that there will be no accidents."
Since Shang Ce had already said this, the Three Emperors naturally had no reason to question it:
"If that's the case, then Your Highness should humble yourself and marry the princess of Dayan!"
.......
Dayan Palace, Imperial Study.
The eunuch who delivered the order knocked on the door.
"Come in!"
The majestic voice of Emperor Yanwu came from the study.
The eunuch who delivered the imperial edict swallowed hard, then pushed the door and walked in.
As soon as he entered the study, he fell to his knees with a thump:
"Your servant greets His Majesty the Emperor!"
Emperor Yanwu raised his eyelids slightly and said calmly, "No need to be polite! How is the matter going?"
Hearing Emperor Yanwu's question, the eunuch shuddered and then reported the truth:
"Your Majesty, I have conveyed your will to the Ye family according to your instructions, and they have also obediently accepted your orders."
Upon hearing this news, Emperor Yanwu laughed:
"Humph, Ye Hongtu is really old and confused. He actually dared to meet the envoy of the Great Zhou at night. Isn't this giving others an advantage?"
"What is the current situation of the Ye Mansion? Is it in a state of panic?"
"What do the people of the surname Wang think of the Ye family?"
Emperor Yanwu's question made the eunuch who delivered the imperial edict even more nervous.
But he still gritted his teeth and recounted exactly what happened outside the Ye Mansion.
When the eunuch who delivered the imperial edict finished his last sentence, he clearly felt a great pressure rising up slowly.
Under this pressure, his body, which was originally crawling, was completely pressed against the ground.
“Okay, okay!”
"Hahahaha, Ye Hongtu, ah Ye Hongtu, you actually tried to play this trick on me."
"They clearly saw through the Great Zhou's plan, yet they chose to take advantage of it."
"In the end, it caused me and the Great Zhou delegation to become completely opposed to each other."
Being able to sit on the throne, Emperor Yanwu was naturally no fool, and he quickly figured out the cause and effect of the matter.
As a result, not only did the plan to take advantage of the situation to discredit the Ye family completely fail, but the next step was to find a way to deal with the anger of the Great Zhou delegation.
The most infuriating thing is that throughout the whole process, the Ye family suffered almost no losses, and the prestige in the hearts of the Ye family was raised again.
He was given a reputation of being ignorant and wrongly accusing loyal and honest people.
With a "bang", Emperor Yanwu punched heavily on the table.
The body was shaking slightly.
After a while, he finally gathered his thoughts and told the eunuch:
"Summon the king, the emperor, the emperor's officials and the emperor's military officials to the palace to discuss this matter together!"
"I obey your order!"
........
At the Ye Mansion, Ye Hongtu received the news quickly.
"My Lord, His Majesty the Emperor has summoned all the civil and military officials to the palace. It should be to discuss the matter of the Great Zhou envoy, right?"
Mrs. Xiao said as she was tidying up Ye Hongtu's court robes.
"What else could it be?"
A hint of sarcasm appeared on Ye Hongtu's lips.
"Then he will probably find trouble with me in front of all the civil and military officials in the court!"
"I wonder how the old man will deal with this situation?"
Hearing what Madam Xiao said, Ye Hongtu smiled:
"The Ye family has done nothing wrong, what can he do to them?"
"At most, I'll just give you a few words of reprimand and say you're being reckless."
【Hehe, Daddy is right! 】
[The Ye family had sufficient reasons to kill the envoy. Does the dog emperor still want to seek justice for someone who intended to assassinate the general of the Great Yan Kingdom? ]
[If he really did this, he would probably be laughed at by countless people.]
[Even if the dog emperor is stupid, he would never do such a thing. ]
Ye Hongtu and Mrs. Xiao smiled at each other.
They also agreed with Ye Chuyao's words.
At this moment, Ye Chuyao's inner voice continued to echo:
[How nice it would be if Daddy could bring him to court one day? 】
[놖I have always been curious about what the dog emperor looks like. 】
[The book portrays him as rather contradictory. He is quite smart and powerful, but he always does stupid things.]
[I'm really interested in him! 】
Hearing this, Madam Xiao shook her head:
{What is this precious lady thinking?}
{Going to court to discuss matters is such a serious matter, how could he bring a simple person like her with him?}
Ye Hongtu also showed a look of helplessness on his face, even though the Ye family and the royal family were already irreconcilable.
But both sides had to save face. If he really did so, it would be a disgrace to Emperor Yanwu in public.
Even some officials would take the opportunity to attack him, but he would never do such a stupid thing.
However, this is not completely impossible.
What if he and Emperor Yanwu switched positions?
Ye Hongtu was also shocked by the thought that came to his mind.
{Don't be so arrogant, it's better to keep your feet on the ground!}
He touched Ye Chuyao's head lovingly:
"My dear girl, be obedient and listen to your mother at home."
"Daddy will be back soon!"
After saying that, he opened the door and walked out.
.......
In the Qianyang Palace, all the civil and military officials of the court gathered.
The military officers headed by Ye Hongtu and Xiang Wudi and the civil officials headed by Gu Yancheng stood in clear lines.
At this moment, Gu Yancheng glanced at Ye Hongtu and said with a faint smile:
"General Ye is really amazing. He even dared to kill the envoys of the Great Zhou. He is worthy of being the Great Yan's national defender."
Ye Hongtu naturally understood that he was implying himself, and replied directly:
"Of course, as long as anyone dares to harm Dayan or the Ye family, this general will show no mercy."
"Even if she's a woman!"
He used a secret voice to transmit the latter sentence, so only Gu Yancheng could hear it.
"Even if she's a woman?"
Gu Yancheng naturally understood who Ye Hongtu was talking about.
Liu Anxiu's death has always been a thorn in his side, making him full of hatred towards Ye Hongtu.
He never thought that Ye Hongtu would actually make this matter known to everyone. It was really murderous.
"you......."
Gu Yancheng's tone faltered, so he just threw away his sleeves and said nothing more.
"Haha, you wanna fight me? I'll spit you to death!"
"Yaoyao is right, shameless people are invincible!"
