The scene at the gate of General Pingnan's mansion shocked the whole capital. Everyone was surprised. What happened? When did the scholar-like Sixth Prince fall in love with the eldest daughter of the Ren family? One of them was elegant and the other was tough. They were the opposite of each other. They were not a good match! The eldest daughter of the Ren family had practiced martial arts with her father since she was young. If they had a disagreement after marriage, wouldn't the Sixth Prince be bullied?
But people immediately realized that no, no, no, they should not be fooled by the Sixth Prince's appearance. He looked like a scholar, but when it came to fighting, his skills were beyond the reach of ordinary people.
Some people also remembered that the Sixth Prince saved the eldest daughter of the Ren family in front of many people at the Fifth Prince's wedding banquet a while ago, and the Left Censor-in-Chief even lost his official position because of this incident. It can be seen that the Sixth Prince is not inferior to the Ninth Prince in protecting people.
Besides, when Sun Rang went to General Pingnan's mansion to deliver the betrothal gift, General Pingnan and his wife and Ren Xifeng were so surprised that they all came to the front yard. Even Lu Ping came out with her big belly. She stood beside Ren Xifeng and asked in a low voice: "Little sister, are you familiar with the Sixth Prince? Why didn't you tell us about this marriage earlier? But my parents have been helping you arrange it for so long, and it turns out that you already have someone you like."
"How could that be?" Ren Xifeng stamped her feet. "Sister-in-law, believe me. There is really nothing between me and His Highness the Sixth Prince. I don't know why he..."
"But you blushed!" Lu Ping looked at her with a smile, "Even if it was nothing in the past, it is something from now on. Little sister, you have never blushed for any man, do you dare to say that you have no interest in the Sixth Prince? I have seen that prince, to be honest, his appearance and talent are not inferior to the Seventh Prince, it is really hard not to be moved by him."
Ren Xitao also said: "Little sister, this is a good thing, but you have kept it a secret from your family and it has been very hard."
But the faces of General Pingnan and his wife were not very good, and it seemed that they did not approve of this marriage. Normally, the mother should have a say in the marriage of her daughter, but the Sixth Prince's current status is too special, and the general's wife is a little unsure about how to bring it up. The old general ignored all that, stared at Sun Rang and said loudly: "Thank you for your favor, Your Highness the Sixth Prince, but the daughter of our general's mansion does not have the intention of clinging to the royal family, let alone the Sixth Prince. To be frank, if the Sixth Prince inherits the throne in the future, he will have the entire harem to enjoy, and my daughter will not suffer that. I hope that Eunuch Sun will go back and tell the Sixth Prince that the old minister thanks the Sixth Prince for his kindness, but the general's mansion cannot afford this marriage."
His words were quite rude, but Sun Rang was not angry at all. Instead, he said to General Pingnan, "Your Highness had expected the old general to say this, so he asked me to bring you a message. I hope you will listen to it, ask Miss Ren for her opinion, and then make a decision. Is that okay?"
General Pingnan snorted, "Go ahead!"
Sun Rang cleared his throat and then raised his voice, "Sixth Prince, bring a message to Miss Ren. If Miss Ren doesn't mind not fighting, he is happy to be alone for life."
Ren Xifeng was stunned by this sentence, and so was General Pingnan. The old general was quick-witted and blurted out, "What did he say? One person for a lifetime? No, no, he is the future emperor, how can he only have one person for a lifetime?" Yesterday he submitted a memorial to ask the Sixth Prince to choose a concubine, and today someone came to his house and said that he would only have one person for a lifetime. If those old guys knew about this, wouldn't they all come to the door of the general's mansion to protest? No, no, this is not okay.
But when he turned around again, he saw that his daughter's eyes were already showing shyness. His mind suddenly exploded, and he suddenly realized that how could the Sixth Prince, with such a personality, come to the General's Mansion to offer a betrothal gift for no reason? It must be that his daughter had been in contact with him before! Alas! Why did he become so confused? Why didn't he think of this!
Sun Rang saw the old general's changing moods and knew that there was something going on, so he left the betrothal gifts and quickly left. By the time the people in the general's mansion realized what was happening, the imperial carriage had already turned out of the alley.
Ren Xifeng pondered over the Sixth Prince's words. She didn't mind not fighting, but could he really promise her to be alone for the rest of her life? Thinking about it again, she couldn't help but laugh. What was she worried about? That was the Sixth Prince! In this world, apart from the Seventh Prince's transcendental beauty, there was the Sixth Prince's elegant and refined manner. How could she question such a person? As long as that person said yes, then it must be!
She smiled brightly, and her troubled mood for many days finally cleared up at this moment. She finally understood that the man had really entered her heart without her knowing it, but she had kept it secret and didn't show it. She always complained that God treated her badly, and that everyone else had a happy life, but she was the only one who was sad.
But she didn't expect that God would save the best for her and bring the most glorious and supreme thing in the world to her.
She lowered her head, her cheeks flushed. No matter how her family members asked her, she only answered: "If the Sixth Prince said so, I would believe it."
What else could General Pingnan say? His daughter was willing, so why was he so stubborn? Speaking of which, apart from the fact that he was a little worried about inheriting the throne in the future, there was really nothing wrong with the Sixth Prince. If such a man became his son-in-law, not only would his daughter be satisfied, but he himself would also be secretly happy. Although he didn't want to get rich by clinging to the imperial power in the past, he would also feel honored when his daughter really became the queen of the country one day!
The old general nodded, his face showing his excitement. He said, "Alright, alright. Isn't it always said that the son of Xuan family is good, and you are worried that the wife you marry is not good enough to help him maintain the prestige of the country? Now it's good. Others can't be trusted, but my own daughter can be trusted. Feng'er, you have to remember this, no matter how high your position is in the future, the first thing you have to think about is the people of the world and the people of the four directions."
The general's wife considered the issue from another perspective. She said, "The Sixth Prince has just promised you one life, so you have to think carefully. He is the future emperor, and the issue of heirs is something the whole world is watching. You should be more courageous and ask Princess Yu to see if there is any medicine that can bring more children and more blessings. Only if you guarantee the royal heirs can you stop the world from talking."
Because of the Sixth Prince's betrothal gift, Ren Xifeng listened to the family teachings for a whole day. The four family members surrounded her from front to back and left to right, and explained the facts and reasons to her from beginning to end. The old general even taught her how to be a queen. Lu Ping also simply used the Lu family as an example to remind her that no matter what time it is, she must never be evil. Ren Xitao even had a plan. He said, "After my sister enters the palace, I will resign from the position of general and return the military power. Our family cannot let my sister have any reason to talk about it."
Ren Xifeng suddenly felt extremely pressured, but he kept thinking in his heart, what was that person doing at this moment?
Inside the Qiankun Hall, Sun Rang told Xuan Tianfeng about what he had seen and heard in the General's Mansion. A secret guard also reported back, repeating every word that the people in the General's Mansion had said to Ren Xifeng that day.
Xuan Tianfeng thought that his secret guard had been trained in an all-round way. Not only was his Kung Fu good, but his parody was also very accurate. However... "Today is a special day. From now on, don't go to the general's mansion to explore."
The secret guard nodded in response, dodged and disappeared back into the darkness.
Sun Rang smiled and said, "Your Highness, I have said it long ago that you and Miss Ren are a match made in heaven. This has happened so many times, and you two work so well together. The old general is a loyal minister, and Miss Ren is a smart and straightforward woman. She is not only beautiful, but also heroic. Having such a woman as the future queen will really bring honor to Dashun!"
The Sixth Prince smiled bitterly. He had never thought about whether he would bring honor to Dashun. It was just that when he was thinking about the imminent marriage, he could not help but think of that girl. For him, instead of taking many concubines, it would be better to have only one, Ren Xifeng, which would be more to his liking. The two of them had quite a lot of contact. In this world, apart from his mother and Feng Yuheng, he rarely dealt with other women. He couldn't take a group of people he didn't even know into the palace. If he thought about that day, he would have the urge to escape.
Moreover, he still remembered the rainy night when he sent Ren Xifeng back to the mansion. The girl turned her head and looked at him when she entered the mansion. In just one glance, he saw a hint of longing and reluctance, so he understood that Ren Xifeng would be willing to accept the betrothal gift.
In the court, no one mentioned anything about marrying a wife or taking a concubine to Xuan Tianfeng anymore, because he had already chosen someone, and she was the eldest daughter of General Pingnan. This combination was really satisfying. Very satisfying!
The court has been cleaned up now, and the remaining people are all loyal ministers who are willing to sacrifice everything for the well-being of Dashun. They are more willing to consider things in the direction of the royal family. The eldest daughter of General Pingnan's family is of course of high status. She is the daughter of the old general. If such a person is not worthy of being the queen, who else is more worthy?
Furthermore, Ren Xitao actually handed back the only tens of thousands of soldiers he had at this time, which made people have to admire their family even more and look up to the people in the general's mansion.
However, the Sixth Prince said that it is only one person in one life, which makes people a little worried. Someone tried to persuade the Sixth Prince back to this mood, but before the Sixth Prince could speak, the Ninth Prince Xuan Tianming spoke first, and did not put pressure on him. He just said leisurely: "My princess and the eldest lady of the Ren family are close friends. The concept of only one person in this life was instilled by Heng Heng and the eldest lady Ren. Otherwise, you can go to the Yu Palace and ask Princess Yu? Listen to what she says?"
When people heard this, they waved their hands. Forget it! Who can explain the truth to Princess Yu? If Princess Yu gets angry, it will be no fun. The prosperity of Dashun still depends on Princess Yu! They don't even have time to flatter her, how can they destroy her?
Therefore, the ministers stopped talking about the matter of expanding the harem, but General Pingnan gave a guarantee: "The purpose of expanding the harem is to ensure offspring! As long as the Sixth Prince and his wife can give birth to enough children, why should you worry about it?"
Xuan Tianfeng stroked his forehead. His future father-in-law was really bold in his words!
