Chapter 395 Your marriage has been agreed by your father

Emperor Zhaoning pinched his brows and looked at Taoist Xifeng with an obscure gaze, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking.

Here, Jiujiu was about to say something, but Emperor Zhaoning gave her a reassuring look.

Seeing this, Jiujiu stopped talking.

[It seems that the emperor has a plan in mind for this matter.]

[My father used to be a bit incompetent, but not anymore. Now my father is extremely powerful.]

When Emperor Zhaoning heard Jiujiu's inner voice that he was incompetent and unjust, he was very depressed. But when he heard Jiujiu say, "He is terribly powerful now," he was no longer depressed and became very excited.

My daughter said he is so strong!

So, in his daughter's heart, is he also a great hero? Is he admired by her?

Emperor Zhaoning was very curious about this and waited for Jiujiu to mutter a few more words in her heart, but Jiujiu said nothing.

It was Taoist Xifeng who continued, "Your Majesty, I am not the kind of person who covets beauty. The reason why I want to marry the princess is not only because I want to help you live forever, but also because I saw the princess's face. Although she has the face of great wealth and honor, her life will be smooth and worry-free. However, the princess is destined to have a great disaster."

"She can only live safely if she marries me and is blessed by the merits accumulated from my practice for several lifetimes."

"Otherwise, she will surely die."

Taoist Xifeng's words sounded reasonable. He didn't ask to marry Jiujiu for no apparent reason, but had a reason.

He is helping the princess to overcome her difficulties.

He has a great love in his heart.

It's really touching.

Not to mention Emperor Zhaoning, Fu'an was moved first.

Fu An looked at Jiujiu worriedly, and wanted to say to Emperor Zhaoning immediately: "Your Majesty, please agree quickly? Let's not talk about immortality or not, just say that if the princess marries him, she can avoid disaster."

"Princess, nothing must happen to you."

Fuan really cares about Jiujiu.

However, Emperor Zhaoning showed no emotion on his face. He even looked at Taoist Xifeng with scrutiny and asked, "Are you... really a monk?"

How can a Taoist monk get married?

No matter how much Taoist Xifeng explained, he could not conceal his strong purpose. He... was actually coming for Jiujiu.

He was tempted by immortality. For the sake of immortality, he could turn a blind eye, be a little confused, accept Taoist Xifeng, and meet all of Taoist Xifeng's requirements.

But, it won’t work when it comes to my daughter.

He could play with fire and burn himself in the hope of survival, but he would never involve his daughter.

After all, he only had this one precious daughter. He would not gamble with her, let alone exchange her for anything.

Moreover, when he mentioned his daughter, his mind suddenly became clearer.

He began to think that Taoist Xifeng's so-called immortality technique might just be a cover, and his real purpose was to take away his treasure and Xi Chu's treasure.

Emperor Zhaoning looked at Taoist Xifeng warily.

"Of course." Taoist Xifeng said, "But I can marry. I am a disciple of the Zhengyi Sect. The Zhengyi Sect does not restrict its disciples from marrying and having children. It also encourages disciples to practice in the secular world and accumulate merits."

"Haha." Emperor Zhaoning sneered, "Do you think I will believe it?"

Just because Taoist Xifeng rashly proposed to Jiujiu, Emperor Zhaoning no longer trusted him.

"Your Majesty, I am telling the truth!" Taoist Xifeng felt a little regretful when he saw that Emperor Zhaoning had doubted him and was looking at him dangerously. It was because of his impulsiveness and eagerness that all his efforts were wasted and he aroused suspicion.

Emperor Zhaoning couldn't hear anything at this moment. He pinched his aching brows and said, "Fu'an, kick this guy out."

He does not keep anyone with bad intentions.

As for his secret of longevity, it is very tempting.

But seeing as he's full of calculations, there's no guarantee that there won't be other traps coming up.

Let’s just forget it.

Fuan was stunned for a moment and didn't move.

The next moment, Emperor Zhaoning gave him a cold look.

Fuan didn't dare to just stand there, he hurried to do his work, no matter how reluctant he was.

Fu'an, along with the Imperial Guards, captured Taoist Xifeng and drove him out of the palace.

However, Fu'an did not understand Emperor Zhaoning's sudden change of mind, and he was completely deceived by Taoist Xifeng's words.

He was very worried about Jiujiu and didn't want Taoist Xifeng to be kicked out of the palace like this.

When he drove Taoist Xifeng out of the palace, he whispered to Taoist Xifeng, "Taoist, go to the West City Supervisor's Mansion. I have something important to discuss with you after I get off work." He wanted to ask again, how to help the princess resolve this crisis?

Taoist Xifeng was originally extremely disappointed, but because of Fu'an's words, hope was instantly rekindled in his heart.

There is always a way out!

I think this person can help him marry the princess.

He whispered back, "Okay, I'll wait for you."

In the imperial study, Emperor Zhaoning held Jiujiu's hand, looked at her lovingly, and said to her seriously, "Jiujiu, in order to keep you by my side, your father introduced you to the sons of various noble families, hoping to pick one you like."

"But Father found that you couldn't pick one and was very resistant."

"Father has given up on this thought."

"Later, when I found out that you liked that kid Dijiang, I was very upset for a while. I was upset that the kid had set his eyes on you and stole your heart. But, I will not let this stop you."

"As long as he is worthy of your affection, as long as you really like him, Father will approve of this marriage."

"Father, please respect your own wishes."

Emperor Zhaoning said this, letting go of Jiujiu's hand and taking out a red letter from a pile of memorials.

Dijiang handed over the marriage proposal letter.

All in all, he handed over several copies.

He could turn a blind eye before, but now he can't, and he has to respond.

He picked it up and looked at it, then handed it to Jiujiu, "Take a look too."

"If you are willing..." Emperor Zhaoning said, "Father will grant your permission."

Jiujiu opened the letter and started reading. On it was the familiar handwriting of Brother Dijiang. The strokes were vigorous and powerful, and each word was written with a special sense of power.

Her handwriting was taught by her brother Dijiang, so she could recognize it at a glance.

The marriage proposal letter was written by Brother Dijiang himself, and every word was written with sincerity!

After reading it, Jiujiu blushed and mumbled a bunch of words in a low voice with red ears. It seemed that she was willing but a little shy and didn't want to say it out loud.

When Emperor Zhaoning saw this, he understood. He patted Jiujiu on the shoulder, said with tears in his eyes: "Okay, father will be back soon."

"The emperor has agreed to your marriage."

I just can't bear to part with Jiujiu.

Emperor Zhaoning exhaled and said, "Jiujiu, father will accompany you to marry."

"If Dijiang doesn't want to, I won't agree to this marriage."

"Father still needs to write an abdication edict."

"I've had enough of being the emperor. It's tiring and annoying... Let the prince take over! Tomorrow, he should pack up and take over the throne as soon as possible."

“…”

Accompany her to marry?

Abdication edict?

Oh my god!

What did she hear?
