Nian Chengze grew up surrounded by well-bred young ladies and had little contact with people from the martial arts world, so he was used to the gentle and sensible nature of such young women.
"Perhaps." He had indeed had very little contact with people from the martial arts world, so this was the first time he had met such a free-spirited woman. She must have returned disguised as a man.
It must be said that even dressed in men's clothes, it couldn't hide the fact that the person was good-looking.
…
After Nian Chengze left, Wan Ge also told Minister Song that she had no intention of getting married for the time being.
Although I'm anxious for my daughter to find a good family soon before it gets too late, I shouldn't force her if she doesn't want to. Besides, it's been too long since I've spent quality time with her.
Therefore, Vice Minister Song temporarily agreed to Wan Ge's idea that she did not want to get married.
…
As evening fell, deep within the palace, a handsome man flipped through the day's memorials, listening to the man beside him recount the events that had transpired in the capital.
Upon hearing from his subordinates that the daughter of Vice Minister Song seemed to be the son of Minister Yi Nian, he rejected the marriage proposal.
Qi Yan knew beforehand that the two were planning to marry, but since they posed no threat to him, he didn't pay much attention to it.
However, now that he heard that the daughter of Vice Minister Song had actually rejected the son of the Minister, he became even more interested.
The other party seemed to have noticed as well, so they told him about Wan Ge's identity. "When Minister Song was young, she was in poor health and later stayed in a martial arts sect for twelve years before returning to the capital today. Most women in the martial arts world are passionate, and perhaps that's why she directly rejected the Minister's son."
It's said that people in the martial arts world are straightforward; they either like what they like or dislike what they dislike. But for a woman to dare refuse even a high-ranking official's son, she's no ordinary person.
Qi Yan gave a rare "hmm," his face showing a hint of amusement. Now that he'd heard that, he was inclined to meet the daughter of the Vice Minister.
Qi Yan has always liked to be in control since he was a child, so there are no disobedient people around him. Those who are disobedient are long gone.
So many years have passed now, and it's been a long time since I've encountered anyone who disobeys me.
Qi Yan was also wondering if she would dare to refuse him if he wanted to marry her.
Qi Yan is now twenty-four years old, but his harem is still empty, and no minister dares to suggest that he get married.
They felt that they weren't there to report anything at court, because the emperor already knew what they were going to say.
They felt that going to court was just a way to experience the emperor's oppression, and they told themselves every day to do as the emperor arranged and not to offend him.
…
The next day, just as Wan Ge finished washing up and was about to have breakfast, her maid rushed in.
"What's wrong?" Why are you in such a hurry? Does this little maid want to get scolded?
Seeing that Wan Ge remained so calm, the maidservant said, "Miss, His Majesty has decreed that you be made a Noble Consort. And he wants you to enter the palace now."
? ? ?
Before I could even figure out how to see him, he just showed up? Great, I don't even need to think of any other way.
The maid looked at her rather ordinary clothes and said, "Miss, let me change your clothes."
If she wears this outfit into the palace, will His Majesty be angry?
Although the maid didn't know how powerful Qi Yan really was, to ordinary people like them, the emperor was a high and mighty figure.
