At the same time, a clear, deep voice rang out: "Who says no one dares to marry me? I, the King, will marry you."
When these words were uttered, even the emperor, who had come with General Jiang, was stunned.
Under everyone's dumbfounded gaze, Qin Ji slowly spoke again: "Tomorrow, I will send betrothal gifts to your door to ask for Miss Jiang's hand in marriage."
The emperor, who had been watching the battle from the sidelines, couldn't sit still any longer. He immediately stepped forward, walked to the other man's side, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "Little Nineteen, are you kidding me? You want to marry her?"
Qin Ji looked up and gave the other person a cold look before slowly saying, "When have I ever lied to my royal brother?"
The emperor initially felt that although his relationship with the regent was not particularly good, the regent was still his younger brother and represented the face of the royal family.
However, after thinking about it for a bit, although Wan Ge is good in every way, she has been married before, so her reputation is definitely not as good as before.
The regent marrying a woman with a tarnished reputation is a good thing for him in order to secure his throne. He shouldn't have stood in his way.
After thinking it through, the emperor spoke again: "Since you have made up your mind, then I will not stop you."
After saying that, he smiled and said in a voice that everyone present could hear, "The Regent and Miss Jiang are in love, so today I will bestow a marriage upon them."
Some ministers around the emperor wanted to voice their objections, but Qin Ji silenced them with a single glance. So, in the end, no one spoke again.
As soon as Wan Ge came out, she heard the news that she had been betrothed to the Regent.
To be honest, after the Crown Prince dismounted, Qin Ji never mentioned their past. Although they would meet occasionally, Wan Ge, seeing his self-discipline and polite manners towards her, wondered if he intended to treat her as a friend.
Good grief, the original owner's father had just returned when he gave him this news.
Xiao Ning was not surprised at all by this. After all, the prince's feelings for the young lady were too obvious. Others might not know, but she had been by the young lady's side all along. How could she not know?
That's wonderful! Over the past three months, Xiao Ning has heard so much gossip that she was almost driven mad with anger. Now, finally, there's good news.
He wanted to see how those who criticized his daughter would be proven wrong. Not only had his daughter found a good husband, but he had also married the current regent. He was incredibly envious of those people.
Although the regent was born different from others, he was unlike the extraordinary figures of previous dynasties. This unique regent was an auspicious omen, and he could sense that the young lady would be very happy in the future.
Xiao Ning didn't have many other wishes; she just wanted her mistress to be happy.
"Miss is so kind. Let's see who dares to talk about you now."
Wan Ge smiled helplessly and reached out to pat the little girl's head: "Don't take what others say so seriously."
Xiao Ning snorted: "But I just can't stand it. I don't like them talking about you like that. Our young lady is clearly exceptionally good, and they don't understand at all."
After saying that, Xiao Ning remembered something else: "Oh, right, Miss, it's a bit chilly. I'll go get you a cloak."
As soon as Xiao Ning turned around, she bumped into someone coming from the opposite direction. The man, dressed in fine clothes, reached out and touched Xiao Ning.
