Moreover, he said it very directly and clearly, and used the word "accomplish". It was obvious that he had seen through the emperor's tricks long ago and hoped that the emperor could fulfill his wish.
Duan Hong and Duan Sijin looked at each other, and then turned their attention to Duan Qingxi.
Duan Qingxi's expression was complicated, and he didn't know what to say for a moment.
She actually had the same idea as the emperor, thinking that there was still plenty of time and there would always be a chance to cancel her engagement with Helian Yun.
But now... things seem to be getting tricky.
When the emperor asked her if she wanted to cancel the engagement, she refused. Now that Helian Yun proposed to marry later, she...she could also refuse, but it might bring trouble to the general's mansion.
No one spoke for a long time.
The Queen wanted to lighten the mood, so she looked at Helian Yun and said with a smile, "You are so reckless, child... The Fourth Prince is still here, and he hasn't found a suitable princess yet. How can you marry Xi'er at this time?"
After a pause, she continued, "Don't worry. Once the Fourth Prince and his wife leave, my father and I will make good arrangements for you."
To put it bluntly, it's just delaying time.
If it were in the past, Helian Yun would not have dared to confront the emperor and empress, and would have definitely agreed.
But at this moment, he didn't want to compromise!
Whenever he thought of the scene when he saw Duan Qingxi walking out of the Ninth Prince's Mansion that day, he felt unwilling!
Duan Qingxi is obviously his fiancée and should be his Fifth Princess, so why can't he marry her as soon as possible?
"Mother, my son and Xi'er's marriage has been delayed for a long time. Moreover... my son's family has no concubines or concubines. Neither I nor Xi'er are young anymore. Even if I can't marry Xi'er soon, it shouldn't be difficult to set a wedding date."
The queen looked embarrassed and didn't know what to say for a moment.
In fact, she could also understand Helian Yun's thoughts. After all, their marriage had been delayed for too long, and even Helian Cheng and Zuo Xinya had been married for a long time.
The emperor looked displeased, but he couldn't get angry. After all, the request couldn't be excessive.
He looked at Duan Qingxi and asked, "What does Princess Yunle think?"
Duan Qingxi came back to her senses. She glanced at Helian Yun with a complicated expression, then walked to his side and knelt down in front of the Emperor and Empress. "Your Majesty, I feel..."
When she was about to speak, she suddenly froze, then turned her head abruptly to look at Helian Yun who was kneeling beside her.
Just now, Helian Yun's voice came into her mind.
He said, "Xi'er, since I dared to bring you here, I have already made full preparations. Marry me, or I will destroy the General's Mansion and then do everything I can to get you. You only have these two choices!"
Only Duan Qingxi could hear these words, but it was precisely because of this that Duan Qingxi felt shocked and terrified.
It turns out that Helian Yun...is really in cahoots with that nine-tailed celestial fox!
She spoke in her heart, wanting to ask Helian Yun what he wanted to do, but the man ignored her.
At this moment, he was still kneeling beside her with his back straight, his eyes fixed on the emperor and empress.
Duan Qingxi clenched her fists, swallowing the words she was about to refuse. She nodded to the emperor and said, "Your Highness is willing."
She couldn't take risks with the General's Mansion. Now Helian Yun could talk to her through his mind. What if he really attacked the General's Mansion?
