Chapter 802: Granted Marriage (3)
This time, Emperor Wenhui understood. Prince Rui wanted to find a woman in Mingqi? But why? He instinctively felt a little strange, suspecting a conspiracy, but he couldn't show it. He immediately gave a generous smile and said, "I see. It's all right. Even a hero can't resist a beautiful woman. Prince Rui is a young and talented man, so he naturally deserves a beautiful woman to marry. But I wonder which girl Prince Rui has his eye on?"
Prince Rui stared at him, and his beautiful peach blossom eyes suddenly bloomed with a smile. Emperor Wenhui was stunned, and then he heard the young man speak lightly.
“Shen family, Shen Miao.”
Emperor Wenhui could no longer laugh.
His heart was shaking with anger, and he wanted to have Prince Rui dragged down and beheaded, but he couldn't. Finally, he could no longer maintain the friendly smile on his face, and his expression became extremely stiff.
He asked with a dry voice: "Who are you talking about?"
"The daughter of the mighty general." Prince Rui said, "Your Majesty, don't you remember? Didn't the Crown Prince want to marry her as a concubine a few days ago?"
To force people like this! This is too much!
Many thoughts popped up in Emperor Wenhui's mind in an instant, but in the end, he couldn't help but want to sneer.
This King Rui seems lazy and doesn't care about anything. He doesn't even care about the alliance between Mingqi and Qin. He just does his own thing every day. It turns out that he is just pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger. He has another trick up his sleeve!
The first person he wanted to marry was the legitimate daughter of a mighty general. Would he marry Shen Miao or the military power of the Shen family?
Emperor Wenhui knew that the Shen family's military power might be of little consequence to Daliang, as Daliang already possessed many outstanding generals. However, for Mingqi, most of its former outstanding generals had been dismissed by him in his early years, and now the Xie family had declined, leaving only the Shen family to sustain Mingqi's prestige. Without the Shen family, Mingqi would be like a tiger without claws. Against Daliang, it would likely be devoured before even a moment's struggle!
What a great King Rui is, what a great Liang!
Emperor Wenhui forced a smile and said, "Prince Rui has good taste, but General Shen loves his daughter very much, and everyone knows it. If Prince Rui insists on marrying Shen Miao, General Shen will probably feel sorry for his young daughter and not want her to marry far away in Daliang."
"How difficult is that?" Prince Rui played with the ring on his finger and said nonchalantly, "If General Shen doesn't want to, can't His Majesty just issue an imperial decree?"
Emperor Wenhui was stunned.
Prince Rui's words continued to reach his ears: "Daliang and Mingqi are still quite friendly now. Your Majesty will not even grant me this favor, right?" He stretched lazily and said lightly: "In that case, I should report the matter of the city to my brother."
Emperor Wenhui lived a lifetime and finally knew what it felt like to be "trembling with anger."
The Shen family is a piece of fat meat. Prince Rui not only wants to grab this piece of fat meat, but also wants the owner to offer it to him with both hands!
If he really issued an imperial decree, even if Shen Xin stayed in Mingqi out of loyalty in the future, she would still feel resentful towards him. It was he who issued the imperial decree to let Shen Miao marry far away!
If he refused to issue the imperial decree... Emperor Wenhui glanced at the man across from him. His expression was unclear under his mask, but he had a feeling that beneath his lazy and frivolous exterior lay a formidable tactician. With the alliance between Mingqi and Qin at stake, it would be unwise to rashly confront Daliang.
Prince Rui gave him a difficult question, one that had no answer, because any answer would be wrong! He would be the one to suffer the consequences!
The man's gaze fell on Emperor Wenhui, like a cat playing with a mouse in its claws. He asked lazily and slowly, "Your Majesty, have you made up your mind?"
