Wen Yu went back home. Liu Chun was puzzled: "Why didn't the princess attend General Lu's celebration banquet? General Lu must be looking forward to it."
Wen Yu sighed: "My great fool, there is a saying that a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall."
"A dangerous wall? How can a celebration party be a dangerous wall?"
"A celebration banquet is not a dangerous wall, but it is a raging river. I, your princess, have my feet on several boats."
Liuchun: ...
It was terrifying that she actually understood...
"But Princess, didn't General Lu know about this? Why can't we go to the celebration banquet?"
Wen Yu smiled and said, "You will understand when the time comes."
"It's a pity that I can't see my brother's expression with my own eyes."
Liu Chun was even more confused: "What do you mean, Princess?"
"Nothing, just superficial meaning."
Liuchun: ...
The celebration banquet in the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests has officially begun at this time.
Ministers and soldiers sat in different levels, and the atmosphere was harmonious and peaceful.
The emperor sat upright on the dragon throne, feeling very pleased.
He raised his glass high and spoke in a sonorous and powerful voice: "In this battle of Xili, General Lu was brave and good at fighting. He defeated countless enemies and directly attacked the Yellow Dragon of Xili, enhancing the prestige of our country. I am very pleased! General Lu is indeed the sharp sword of Dasheng!"
"Xi Li has signed the terms of surrender and will come to Dasheng for pilgrimage soon. Your achievements will be recorded in history. My dear ministers, let's raise our glasses together to celebrate our great victory!"
Upon hearing this, all the ministers raised their glasses and shouted, "Long live the emperor, long live the emperor, long live the emperor, may the world be peaceful and the country prosper forever."
The emperor nodded slightly with satisfaction, and then looked at Lin Yuzhi: "Prime Minister Lin's trip to Xili this time has also made an invaluable contribution!"
Lin Yuzhi said: "It is my humble duty."
The emperor and his ministers were all in high spirits, and they all toasted each other.
After a song of Chigu dance, the main process is also completed.
The emperor couldn't wait to take advantage of Wen Yu's absence to finalize the marriage, so as to give an explanation to Lu Ren who was fighting outside.
We can't let our loyal subjects feel disheartened.
The emperor then put down his wine glass and said in a loud voice: "My dear ministers, you may not know that General Lu asked to see me before he went to war and promised me that he would win this battle."
"He also said that he would not ask for any reward after the victory, but only wanted to ask for an imperial decree to grant marriage for his beloved. Now that General Lu has returned victoriously, I will naturally fulfill General Lu's wish."
All the ministers were very surprised when they heard this.
General Lu, who looks like a cold-faced devil and has no interest in women, actually already has a lover?
And she even went before the emperor to ask for an imperial decree to grant the marriage?
What kind of extraordinary woman is this? How could she be favored by General Lu?
Several ministers also looked disappointed, and their plans to marry their daughters off were shattered.
As everyone knows, the newlyweds who are married by the emperor must be faithful to each other for life, the man must respect and love his wife, and he is not allowed to take concubines or divorce.
In short, it is a marriage that is directly protected by the emperor.
General Lu is really playing big. Is he so confident that he won't take another concubine?
The ministers all sighed inwardly.
Only Lin Yuzhi was holding a wine glass, looking at Lu Ren thoughtfully, as if he knew what he wanted to do and who his sweetheart was.
But unlike the reactions of other ministers, he curled the corners of his lips and did not think that this arranged marriage would be successful.
"General Lu, whose daughter do you want to marry?"
After the emperor said this, the ministers perked up. Is it the daughter of a minister present here?
Lu Ren stood up and walked to the front of the palace, bowing in a deep voice and said, "Your Majesty, the one I love is not the daughter of an official family."
The emperor looked suddenly enlightened. It seemed that the difference in status between the two was too obvious. In order to protect the woman from being criticized, he wanted to ask for an imperial decree to grant the marriage. His intention was obvious.
"General Lu has defeated Xili, but he does not want any reward. All he needs is an imperial decree granting marriage, and I will naturally do whatever it takes."
"Besides, I have cleared all obstacles for you. General Lu only needs to tell me who your sweetheart is, and the imperial decree will follow your wishes."
However, Lu Ren, who was a master strategist and decisive warrior on the battlefield, held his breath nervously at this moment.
He bowed with his eyes lowered, his tone full of determination and yearning: "I would like to ask Your Majesty to grant the marriage between the Princess and me."
As soon as the words fell, the hall fell silent for a moment.
Everyone suspected that there was something wrong with their ears, and one person even lost his manners in front of the palace and spit out a mouthful of wine.
The same question emerged in their minds: Is there a second princess in Dasheng?
The ministers would rather believe that Da Sheng had a second princess than believe that the princess Lu Ren was talking about was Wen Yu.
This, this is simply...
It's simply...
Alarmist!
Even Jiang Qi, who was calm and composed, had a flash of surprise in his eyes. The eldest princess? !
Lin Yuzhi slowly put down his wine glass and looked at the emperor sitting on the dragon throne.
emperor:……! ! !
The emperor's mood at this moment was even more complicated than the color palette. He was shocked, moved, and a little bit unbelievable.
The shocking thing is that when it comes to sweethearts, the imperial sister is actually nominated!
The touching thing is that when talking about sweethearts, the royal sister is actually nominated!
The unbelievable thing is that when it comes to sweethearts, the royal sister is actually nominated!
But compared with the ministers, he was sure that he had only one imperial sister, and Da Sheng had only one eldest princess. The eldest princess Lu Ren mentioned must be Wen Yu.
It’s just that the emperor thought one step further than his ministers.
This must be the conspiracy of the imperial sister who is still unwilling to give up. She must have said something to Lu Ren that made Lu Ren afraid to express his true feelings.
I'm sorry, Imperial Sister. We've already made it clear that you can harm anyone you want, but you can't harm Lu Ren.
Thinking of this, the emperor said, "General Lu, do you have any unspeakable secrets? You can tell me everything, and I will definitely do you justice."
This made Lu Ren stunned for a moment. He frowned slightly, then said firmly: "Your Majesty, I have no secrets. I want to marry Princess Wen Yu. Please grant me the marriage."
The two words "Wen Yu" shattered the fantasies of all ministers. It turned out that Da Sheng still had only one princess.
The emperor frowned. What was the imperial sister using to threaten Lu Ren?
He said in a deep voice: "General Lu, don't be afraid. I said I will do you justice!"
Lu Ren:?
Lu Ren was somewhat puzzled by the emperor's reaction. He said firmly again: "Your Majesty, I don't understand what Your Majesty means. The princess and I are in love with each other..."
"etc--"
The emperor lifted his butt slightly from the dragon throne, "Are you two in love?"
