The next morning, Su Qingyue got up early and went into the palace.
Before Qingli got up, she heard the palace maid report that Su Qingyue had arrived.
Nangong Yan was sitting at the desk in the bedroom handling official business. Qingli lifted the bed curtain and saw his figure.
After giving Nangong Yan a sidelong glance, Qingli asked the palace maid to go out and dressed herself.
She was still not used to being served in every detail by the palace maids, and most of the time, she did it herself.
After putting on her clothes, Qingli was about to go out, and Nangong Yan said, "Your sister is considered a family member, so let's meet here!"
"Someone, come in, Miss Xuan Su."
The maid immediately agreed.
Qingli didn't say anything.
A moment later, Su Qingyue came in and saluted the emperor politely.
"Sister, why are you here so early in the morning? What's the matter?"
Qingli asked with concern.
Su Qingyue nodded, then knelt down towards Nangong Yan.
"Your Majesty, I would like to ask for your permission to marry me. Please grant your permission."
Nangong Yan looked at Su Qingyue in surprise, then looked at Qingli, wanting to ask her what she thought.
Qingli was a little surprised!
He hurriedly asked, "Sister, what's wrong with you? Why do you suddenly want to get married?"
Su Qingyue said to Qingli, "It's not sudden. I have always had someone I like, but my family has never been willing. Now, I don't want to wait any longer. After I told my father last night, he still opposed it and was very angry. So I went to the palace early to ask His Majesty to grant me marriage."
"My father said that marriage is a matter of parents' orders and matchmakers' words. I don't have the right to make the decision myself. I don't have the right, but Your Majesty does. I have no other choice, so I can only come to Your Majesty for help."
Qingli found it very sudden, but looking at her sister's determined look, she felt that she seemed to be eager to be granted marriage.
"Sister, are you really going to get married? Who is that person? Have I seen him before?"
Su Qingyue shook her head. "You haven't seen him. His name is He Mobai. He's a businessman. He's very good-looking, gentle and easy-going. He's a very good person. He's helped me a lot and treated me very well. Now only His Majesty can make the decision for me. Otherwise, I can only follow my father's arrangement and marry the person he wants."
Nangong Yan said, "This is a simple matter. I will give you an imperial decree right now. You can marry whoever you want."
"Come here, draft an order."
Su Qingyue was overjoyed and kowtowed to express her gratitude.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace. Long live Your Majesty. I will pray for Your Majesty every day in the future. I hope Your Majesty will live a long and healthy life."
Nangong Yan said with a smile: "We should pray for the Queen as well. I want to live and die with the Queen."
Su Qingyue was surprised! How could such words come out of the mouth of an emperor? Moreover, this emperor was Nangong Yan, a man who always kept his word.
She suddenly realized that Nangong Yan truly loved Qingli.
"Okay, I will pray every day for your Majesty and the Queen to live a long and healthy life."
Su Qingyue's tone was sincere.
Qingli pursed her lips and glanced at Nangong Yan. This guy was so childish.
The eunuch quickly brought the imperial edict, and Nangong Yan personally drafted the edict to grant Su Qingyue the marriage.
Qingli couldn't help but ask again: "Sister, do you really like this person? If you have any difficulties, remember to tell me, I can help you."
Su Qingyue smiled and said, "Ali, you have helped me a lot. If it weren't for you today, I wouldn't have been able to get this imperial decree. I can marry the person I love because of your help. Thank you, Ali."
Su Qingyue held Qingli's hand, her tone sincere and her eyes full of guilt.
Qingli helped her a lot, but she couldn't help Qingli at all, which made her feel very guilty, but she couldn't change anything.
Hearing her say this, Qingli was relieved.
"There's no need to say thank you between us, sis. Congratulations."
Qingli spoke with a smile, hoping in her heart that Su Qingyue could be truly happy.
Su Qingyue smiled and nodded.
A huge weight in my heart has finally been lifted.
She didn't sleep the whole night last night. She didn't dare to sleep, and she couldn't sleep, for fear that Nangong Mo would break into her boudoir again, and that she would be ruined in his hands again.
Fortunately, it was very quiet last night, without any movement. If she gets the imperial edict today, everything will be settled and she won't need to be afraid anymore.
Thinking of this, Su Qingyue felt relieved.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your help."
Su Qingyue knelt down to express her gratitude.
After receiving the imperial edict, Su Qingyue left the palace. It was agreed yesterday that He Mobai would come to propose marriage this morning, and he might have already arrived at the palace by now. She had to hurry back.
After Su Qingyue left the palace, she asked the coachman to speed up and rush home.
The carriage galloped away and soon returned to the Su Mansion.
At this time in the mansion, He Mobai had been humiliated. People said that he was not worthy of Su Qingyue, that he was a toad wanting to eat swan meat, etc. All kinds of bad words came out of Su's father and mother's mouths, but He Mobai didn't care and just insisted on seeing Su Qingyue.
Seeing that he couldn't convince him, Su's father simply asked his servants to chase them away.
"Qingyue won't come to see you, so give up! I don't know what tricks you used to confuse Qingyue, but now Qingyue has come to her senses. If you know what's best for you, get out of here!"
Father Su spoke in a cold voice and looked at He Mobai with disdain.
The servants in the mansion all came to chase them away.
He Mobai felt helpless. He didn't know why Su Qingyue went to the palace. If she didn't come back, he would have to leave.
Seeing Su Qingyue's uneasiness yesterday, He Mobai left all his secret guards behind after sending her back, and asked them to guard outside the Su Mansion and stop anyone who wanted to enter the Su Mansion.
And last night someone did try to break into the Su Mansion, and the secret guards he left behind played a role.
Today, when he arrived outside the Su Mansion, the secret guard reported to him that Su Qingyue had entered the palace.
But it has been so long and he still hasn't come back.
"Stop!"
Su Qingyue ran in, holding up her skirt, and scolded the servants who were chasing people away.
He Mobai breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Su Qingyue coming back. After dealing with this for such a long time, he also felt very displeased with Prime Minister Su. If Su Qingyue didn't come again, the marriage would not be possible.
However, even if Su Qingyue came back, He Mobai felt that this marriage would be difficult to succeed.
Seeing the way Su's parents are, I'm afraid they won't agree even if you beat them to death.
"Are you okay?"
Su Qingyue asked He Mobai worriedly.
He Mobai smiled and shook his head, "I thought you had changed your mind and that's why you didn't show up."
He Mobai's tone was smiling, and he still looked as gentle as a child.
"Su Qingyue! Come here!"
Father Su looked at the two of them standing together, his face turned blue with anger, and he shouted harshly.
