There is more than one daughter in the Marshal's Mansion. If the Crown Prince likes her, the Emperor and the Empress can betroth other girls to him."
"This prince has already said that he will marry no one but Murong Xiao. If the King of Yue likes her, he can propose to one of the other daughters of the Marshal's Mansion."
Qian Yeming seemed to be enraged by Yelu Boyan's words and directly confronted him. He once again asked the emperor and empress for permission, "Your Majesty, please marry Murong Xiao to me. Otherwise, I will never marry."
"How dare you! You are the Crown Prince, how can you say you will never marry? If you never marry, how can you continue the bloodline of my Qianye family?"
The Crown Prince had never disobeyed him so much, and had never said such disrespectful words before, but now he said such irresponsible words just because of Murong Xiao, whom he had just met. Emperor Dezheng was really furious!
Didn't he understand that the reason he was still firmly seated on the throne of Crown Prince was because he had always wanted to give him a chance? If he chose Murong Xiao, he would ruthlessly take back everything he had given him, including his life!
On Murong Qingyu's side, Qian Yeming has already expressed his strong desire. Before, Murong Qingyu was afraid that Qian Yeming was extreme and he might not listen even to the Queen's words.
Whether the girl from the Murong family can marry Qian Yeming is directly related to whether he can successfully ascend to the throne. Now that Qian Yeming has finally shown great interest in a woman, they must of course do their best to match them up.
Otherwise, if Murong Xiao, such a good chess piece, were to marry Yelu Boyan, the eldest prince who is not even the crown prince, she would be completely ruined.
Without waiting for the emperor's order, Murong Qingyu spoke.
"Thank you, Your Highness, the King of Yue, for your favor towards my daughter. However, the Crown Prince of this dynasty is over twenty and still unmarried, which has caused great anxiety for the Emperor and Empress. Now, His Highness, the Crown Prince has finally fallen in love with my daughter, and I hope Your Highness, the King of Yue, will help us to be together."
I have four daughters at home. If His Majesty the King of Yue is interested in one, as a father, I will certainly be happy to see it happen."
Yelu Boyan glanced at Murong Qingyu and realized that Murong Xiao had definitely been chosen long ago. However, judging by the situation tonight, the relationship between the Emperor and the Grand Marshal was no longer just a fraternal one; a rift had already developed between them. So he still had a chance.
"Emperor of Nanyue, I only love Murong Xiao and no one else. I beg the Emperor to grant me a marriage. If the Emperor of Nanyue can grant me a marriage, I will praise the Emperor in front of my father after returning to Xiliang. I also promise that within 20 years, whether there is an external enemy or internal strife, as long as the Emperor needs us, Xiliang will send troops to help."
Qian Yeying's eyes lit up instantly after hearing these words. He no longer needed to think about how to arrange the marriage.
Giving Murong Xiao to Yelu Boyang could, on the one hand, prevent the Crown Prince and Murong Qingyu from colluding more closely together, and on the other hand, if he really killed the Crown Prince... thinking of the scene of the Crown Prince sitting in his arms as a child, he still felt a little reluctant in his heart.
He had thought Murong Xiao was a nuisance, but he hadn't expected her to be so effective. Not only could she hinder Murong Qingyu's ambitions, but she could also secure foreign aid from Xiliang for Nanyue. Why wouldn't he do it?
Seeing the emperor's lips curled up, everyone's expression changed.
