Chapter 240: Conferred the title of Crown Prince
Chi Ming heard the hidden meaning and quickly assured: "Madam, rest assured, Qing Huan will be my princess, and we will be together for life. This is my promise."
Which woman doesn't want to be with one person for life?
Lu Wanning was shocked by his words.
She expressed her doubt. How could this be possible?
Ordinary men with a little extra money at home all want to take a concubine, let alone Chi Ming.
But he is the Regent, second only to the King!
To be honest, there is no better man in the world than Chi Ming.
His identity and his martial arts skills can give Qinghuan a sense of security.
When you love, you really love, but what if you don’t love anymore?
What if Qinghuan was bullied?
In terms of status, position and power, they are no match.
"Remember, if Qing Huan is bullied one day, I can sacrifice my life even if I have no other skills."
Chi Ming expressed his understanding of his love for his daughter and also made a promise:
"Madam, rest assured. From now on, no one in Dongxi, including myself, will let Qinghuan suffer the slightest harm."
Lu Wanning felt a little bit skeptical. From the Regent to the Emperor, there is also the Queen. How could they not suffer any grievances?
But at this point, there is nothing we can do.
He glared at Bai Qinghuan fiercely:
"When to propose marriage"
"Five days later."
Bai Qinghuan didn't know about this matter either, and looked at Chi Ming in confusion.
Chi Ming lowered his head and explained in a low voice: "I asked the Imperial Observatory to check it. Five days later is an auspicious day. I will go to the princess's mansion to propose marriage then. You just wait for me at home."
After saying goodbye, he left the village and decided to come back in the evening.
Lu Wanning pulled Bai Qinghuan into the house again.
"Tell me more about it."
Bai Qinghuan simply talked about what she could say, but as for what happened on the bed, she didn't want to and couldn't talk about it.
After listening to her, Lu Wanning looked at her and said, "You haven't... lost your virginity, have you?"
This is her biggest concern.
Bai Qinghuan shook her head: "No, mother, I haven't reached the age of marriage yet."
Lu Wanning also breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good."
Otherwise, if something unexpected happens and no outsiders know about it, you can get away with it safely.
Bai Qinghuan also talked about her future as the queen.
Lu Wanning almost couldn't catch her breath and fainted.
"The Queen?"
Is this something her family could think of?
Oh my God!
Chi Ming wants to be the emperor and his daughter wants to be the queen?
"Please let me digest it."
Bai Qinghuan was not in a hurry and gave her some time.
Although she also liked Chi Ming, she was not completely reserved.
It's better to be safe than sorry. If one day he betrays her, she must be able to protect herself.
You can make small things like pistols after you become the queen.
The mother and daughter talked until late at night, and Lu Wanning simply decided not to leave and stayed in her room.
So after Chi Ming came, he went back unwillingly.
Five days later, the former County Princess's Mansion, now the Princess Zhenguo's Mansion, was hung with red silk and filled with joy.
Chi Ming rarely wore a crimson robe, and the crimson color made his skin look even whiter.
It was previously roughened by the sun at the border, but now it has recovered.
He truly has a face as handsome as a jade, sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes, an imposing bearing, and the demeanor of a dragon and a phoenix.
The betrothal gifts behind him were not enough, even a ten-mile red wedding dress was enough, at least it could go around the capital.
Baskets of lucky money were scattered on the streets, and people were saying auspicious words.
Bai Qinghuan also put on a bright red dress. The golden phoenix on the hem of her dress flapped its wings as if ready to fly. She was as beautiful as a fairy from heaven.
She stood there motionlessly, watching Chi Ming walk towards her step by step.
Their eyes met, and they only saw each other.
Lu Wanning sat in the upper seat, wiped her eyes, and felt very pleased. My daughter has grown up.
In the blink of an eye, her daughter is getting married.
The ministers and their families who came to congratulate almost filled up the princess's palace.
She said nice things for free, saying how lucky Lu Wanning was and how well-matched the princess and the regent were.
Even if the ministers were slow to react, after receiving the battle report from Nanzhao, they knew why Bai Qinghuan was named the Princess Guarding the Nation.
That's the person who can make gunpowder.
As a result, Dongxi defeated Nanzhao and Xirong, and was well-deserved of the title of guardian of the country.
If Bai Changhao could treat her well, she wouldn't know how glorious her life would be now.
If they had a daughter like this, they would cherish her so much.
Bai Changhao is not blessed.
Also, the Prince Regent had not fallen in love with anyone in all these years, but he actually fell in love with Bai Qinghuan.
Whether you admire her talent or simply like her, this is a powerful combination.
Not to mention anything else, just the two of them standing together, they are a perfect match made in heaven.
I can't even imagine how good-looking their children will be in the future.
At the same time, the emperor's edict also arrived.
The imperial edict stated that Crown Prince Chi Zhuorui considered himself lacking in talent and virtue and was willing to guard the frontier, so he took the initiative to request to be stripped of his title of crown prince.
The Regent was named the Crown Prince and Bai Qinghuan was named the Crown Prince's Consort, hoping that the two of them would protect Dongxi together.
The ministers were shocked. Could His Royal Highness the Crown Prince really be willing to do so?
However, they also remembered that when Chi Zhuorui was still the fifth prince, he liked to stay in the northwest and was unwilling to come back.
It is possible not to want to be emperor.
As for the Regent becoming the Crown Prince, they had no objection at all.
The Regent has been in charge of the government for so many years, and he also completely wiped out the armies of Nanzhao and Xirong. His contribution will be remembered for generations to come!
They always feel that it is a natural thing and that it is the way it should be.
The throne originally belonged to the regent.
But Bai Qinghuan will be the queen in the future, she is so lucky.
Those who have daughters of marriageable age are becoming more active.
The Regent is only in his twenties. If he expands his harem in the future, wouldn’t that be a chance for my family?
Their daughter is not as powerful as Bai Qinghuan and will not compete for the position of queen, but what if their daughter gives birth to a prince...
Once an idea appears, it is like a spark that is enough to start a prairie fire and can no longer be suppressed.
But after the marriage proposal process was completed, Chi Ming's words gave them a heavy blow.
"In this life, there is only Qing Huan."
He looked at the ministers with a warning: "If anyone causes trouble for Qing Huan in the future, don't blame me for being rude."
The Regent has the lives of at least a million people on his shoulders. Although his tone was calm, no one could withstand the aura around him.
All of them lowered their eyebrows and looked submissive:
"I dare not!"
The idea died before it even took shape.
What else can they do?
Those pretty girls held their hearts and shed tears silently.
Obviously, he had some thoughts about it.
I came to my senses and thought about what might happen in the future.
So they began to congratulate Bai Qinghuan for becoming the crown prince's wife.
The wedding date is set to be after Bai Qinghuan comes of age, but that's still half a year away.
Chi Ming wanted to marry her right away, but according to Dongxi law, girls could only get married after they reached the age of 15.
As for Bai Qingyou and the others who were willing to be concubines before, there is no such saying.
Bai Qingyou, who was imprisoned, was worrying about not being able to see the Regent, when he heard the news that the Regent was engaged to Bai Qinghuan.
She was so angry that she wanted to smash things, but unfortunately there was nothing in the cell.
"Let me out, let me out!"
