Chapter 1175: The Emperor Grants Marriage, as Wish Comes True
"Father, as a princess of the royal family, I should shoulder the responsibilities of a princess. I have never complained about the marriage," Princess Huaning said with a look of grievance. "But what the Crown Prince of Xiqin did is truly despicable."
When Princess Huaning said this, tears fell from her eyes and her voice became choked with sobs.
"How important is a girl's reputation? He actually wanted to ruin my daughter's reputation. My daughter will never marry someone with such bad character!"
"He disrespects my daughter, and that is insulting the imperial family of Great Yan! He destroys my daughter's reputation, and that is showing that he does not take Great Yan seriously!"
Princess Huaning kowtowed deeply when she said this.
"I beg your Majesty to forgive me. I would rather die than marry such a despicable man and bring shame to the Great Yan royal family!"
Princess Huaning's voice was full of determination when she finished speaking.
Following Princess Huaning's words, everyone present sighed, she was indeed worthy of being the eldest princess of Dayan.
This magnanimity and insight fully demonstrate the dignity and righteousness of the royal princess.
It has to be said that after Princess Huaning's words, not only did no one blame her for disregarding national interests and refusing the marriage, but it actually earned Princess Huaning a good reputation.
If it weren't for what Prince Mingxuan did, Princess Huaning would be criticized behind her back for ignoring the overall situation if she showed any intention of refusing the marriage.
Prince Mingxuan's actions actually helped Princess Huaning.
"Your Majesty, I think what Ning'er said is very reasonable!" The Empress Dowager's face showed a rare anger. She said, "How can I allow others to slander the princess of Dayan?!"
"Since the Crown Prince of Xiqin likes the beauties of Dayan, Your Majesty should just reward him with a few more. As for the marriage, don't mention it anymore!"
Since the Empress Dowager said so, Emperor Tianxi naturally would not object.
After all, as a father, it is intolerable for someone to so blatantly want to ruin his daughter's reputation!
What’s more, he is the current emperor!
If such a thing happened, and he still married his daughter to him, the emperor would lose face.
It can be said that Prince Mingxuan’s move was a terrible one!
It was like he was walking on his own and died!
"Your Majesty, what you said is absolutely true." Emperor Tianxi said, looking at Prince Mingxuan with a cold face, and continued: "There are many beautiful women in Dayan. Since Prince Mingxuan likes beautiful women, you might as well stay for a while. If you meet someone who shares your feelings, you may be able to make her your principal wife. That's not a bad idea. When the time comes, I will naturally grant the marriage. That will be a perfect ending. The original intention of Prince Mingxuan coming to Dayan..."
It must be said that even the civil and military officials were somewhat surprised by the sarcasm in Emperor Tianxi's words.
After all, as the emperor, he has always been high and mighty, full of majesty. He is either happy, angry, or calm. When has he ever spoken in a sarcastic tone?
Yes! It’s quite sarcastic!
Emperor Tianxi's words at the end were completely sarcastic.
The civil and military officials were so shocked that they looked at their noses and their hearts. No one dared to speak for fear of offending the emperor.
It can be imagined that the emperor was furious.
The ministers who had originally strongly advocated for Princess Huaning's marriage were now acting like quails, fearing that they would incur the emperor's wrath.
As a result, the Prince of Western Qin's plan to marry the princess was completely ruined!
No matter how good the conditions offered by the Prince of Western Qin were, it was useless.
What's more, the betrothal gift given by Prince Xiao of Northern Qi is even more tempting!
After hearing what Emperor Tianxi said, Prince Mingxuan's face turned pale and he regretted it so much that his intestines almost turned green.
By the way, the reason why he made such a stupid move was that he was confused and took out the pottery figure without thinking it through.
If it weren't for Lianyue and Xiaoyue making such a fuss, he would never have done such a stupid thing!
In short, what has happened cannot be undone.
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty. I will return to Xi Qin soon." Prince Mingxuan said with a grim expression.
Emperor Tianxi naturally would not try to keep him.
Anyway, Prince Mingxuan's leg is still in a splint, so he can't walk even if he wants to. He will definitely have to recuperate in the capital for a while.
Otherwise, if you don't have good manners on the road, you may become disabled if you are not careful.
Prince Mingxuan would never dare to take that risk.
Saying this now is just a way of saving face.
What's more, Emperor Tianxi would not let Prince Mingxuan leave.
Some words are just said for others to hear.
Emperor Tianxi no longer paid attention to Prince Mingxuan and looked at Su Laowu and Princess Huaning.
It has to be said that without the interference of Prince Mingxuan, Emperor Tianxi looked at Su Laowu and Princess Huaning kneeling in front of him and felt that they were a perfect match.
At the same time, he liked his son-in-law Su Laowu more and more.
Only a handsome, virtuous and talented young man like this is worthy of my daughter!
In Emperor Tianxi's mind, the words of King Cheng'en suddenly popped up - good things should be kept within the family!
As expected, the truth is there. This kind of young talent should be left to be the daughter's consort.
Emperor Tianxi thought of this and said, "Su Wuhu, listen to my orders!"
"I am here!"
"The newly crowned number one scholar, Su Wuhu, is young and promising, with a noble character. My daughter, Hua Ning, is virtuous, beautiful, and intelligent. They are a perfect match, both talented and beautiful..."
Following Emperor Tianxi's words, a huge surprise surged into Su Laowu's heart.
Princess Huaning's face was also filled with surprise, her heart pounding.
The two people looked at each other at the same time.
Happiness came too suddenly, like a dream.
"Thank you, Your Majesty! Long live the emperor!" Su Laowu's voice trembled with excitement.
Princess Huaning burst into tears again, but this time she was happy.
"Thank you, father! Long live the emperor!" Princess Huaning kowtowed deeply with excitement and sobs.
Emperor Tianxi was not stupid, and he realized at this time that his daughter had probably already fallen in love with Su Zhuangyuan.
Otherwise, I wouldn't be so excited.
wrong!
Emperor Tianxi suddenly sensed something was wrong.
All the things that happened today, one by one and step by step, seem to be a natural outcome at this point.
However, precisely because it seemed so natural, it actually revealed a hint of weirdness.
Could it be——
Emperor Tianxi looked at Su Laowu, then at Princess Huaning, and then at Xuanyuan Jin and Tang Bao...
Emperor Tianxi's eyelids twitched.
After all, he, the emperor, was plotted against by several juniors!
Emperor Tianxi's face darkened and he felt a little depressed.
However, the depression was only for a moment. Thinking that his beloved daughter had found a good home, Emperor Tianxi finally became happy again.
Tang Bao was so happy that she almost jumped up.
Fifth brother and sister Ning finally achieved their goal!
Congratulations!
"Congratulations to Fifth Brother! Congratulations to Sister Ning! Two, three, four, five, red, come and congratulate Fifth Brother and Sister Ning!" Tang Bao said excitedly.
You know, the crane's congratulations are a good omen and have good meaning!
Anyway, it's worth a try, right?
