Chapter 414: Unexpected Marriage 17
As soon as Qi Hengyuan finished speaking, everyone was shocked, including Chen Hong, who was also dumbfounded.

Chen Hong widened his eyes and looked at Qi Hengyuan, not knowing what to say for a moment.

Chen Dongyan was also extremely shocked. He didn't expect that there would be such an accident during his trip to the border this time.

Chen Hong was granted marriage in such an unexpected situation?
Yan Lang was even more shocked that his unreliable sister would actually be granted marriage by His Majesty, especially at this critical juncture?

This is the time when the kings of two countries, plus Uncle King Jiang, are sitting together to discuss a ceasefire between the two countries!

At this time, there is actually an arranged marriage!
Liu Guoxiang was also shocked by Qi Hengyuan's sudden words.

Qi Hengyuan reacted quickly and blocked Uncle Jiang's plan in time, but these people obviously had not yet reacted.

The other palace guards or garrison troops did not hear these words because they were guarding outside the door.

Thirty thousand garrison troops arrived, including Xiao Huaiguang, but Xiao Huaiguang was also outside the gate.

It’s fine for those who didn’t hear it, but those who did, Liu Guoxiang, Chen Dongyan, Chen Hong, and Yan Lang were all greatly surprised.

They were not only surprised by Qi Hengyuan's arranged marriage, they were even more surprised that the noble daughter of a military general's family that the Emperor of Jiang was going to marry was actually Yan Xiaoye.

But thinking about Yan Ning and then thinking about Yan Ning's abilities, Liu Guoxiang didn't seem surprised anymore.

Chen Dongyan didn’t know that Yan Ning possessed supernatural powers, nor did he know Yan Ning’s true identity, but Chen Dongyan knew that Yan Ning was powerful.

Uncle Jiang wanted Jiang Chengchi to marry Yan Xiaoye simply because of Yan Ning.

Yan Lang and Chen Hong knew Yan Ning's abilities and true identity. They came back to their senses from their shock and looked at each other.

Others didn't understand Uncle Jiang's intention, or rather, they misunderstood Uncle Jiang's intention, but the two of them knew it very well.

At the beginning, Uncle Jiang used various means, including war, to test whether the Yan family was the patron saint of Qi.

Now, I'm afraid that the test has come out. He has concluded that the Yan family is the patron saint of Jiang State, so he has gone through so much trouble to make a ceasefire and voluntarily return the three border passes in order to achieve his goal.

His goal was not peace, but Yan Xiaoye. To be precise, his goal was not Yan Xiaoye, but the magical powers possessed by the Yan family.

After Yan Lang knew Uncle Jiang Wang's real plan, he sneered in his heart.

In such an occasion, he actually had no right to speak, but Yan Xiaoye was his sister, the Emperor of Jiang wanted to marry Yan Xiaoye, and his majesty also said that Yan Xiaoye was promised to Chen Hong and was Chen Hong's fiancée. As Yan Xiaoye's younger brother, he was qualified to speak at this time.

Yan Lang said loudly: "Yes, Chen Hong, my sister promised you. Although you haven't married yet, you are indeed engaged. Now the Emperor of Jiang wants to marry my sister and take your fiancée. Are you willing or not?"

Yan Lang used a very loud voice, which was enough to make the frightened people react.

Including Jiang Wangshu and Jiang Chengchi.

Jiang Wangshu and Jiang Chengchi were frightened because they heard Qi Hengyuan say that Yan Xiaoye was promised to Chen Hong!

How is it possible? Uncle Jiang's target was Yan Xiaoye, so he naturally sent people to keep an eye on Yan Xiaoye. The news he got was that Yan Xiaoye was studying in Guiyang City. Because of Yan Lang, Yan Xiaoye and Chen Hong also got along well, but Yan Xiaoye was not engaged.

His Majesty the State of Qi's move was simply to discourage him from this idea.

Uncle Jiang was no pushover. He knew that His Majesty the Qi Kingdom was unwilling to let Yan Xiaoye marry into the Jiang Kingdom. At the same time, he also believed that His Majesty the Qi Kingdom knew that the Yan family was the patron saint of Qi, and he would never let the patron saint of Qi marry into an enemy country.

This also further confirmed Uncle Jiang's guess, and Uncle Jiang was more certain that the Yan family was the patron saint of Qi.

No matter what, he had to make Jiang Chengchi marry Yan Xiaoye.

Uncle Jiang pushed Jiang Chengchi, and Jiang Chengchi immediately came back to his senses.

Uncle Jiang knew that Yan Xiaoye was not engaged, and Jiang Chengchi naturally knew it too.

Jiang Chengchi had never met Yan Xiaoye, so he didn't know Yan Xiaoye's character or appearance, but he knew Yan Xiaoye's age. He also knew that Yan Xiaoye went to Guiyang City to study.

Jiang Chengchi actually didn't want to marry such a young wife, and he didn't even know what she looked like.

Jiang Chengchi has always liked beautiful girls. Even though he has changed a lot now and has become more motivated, his aesthetic taste has not changed.

But Jiang Chengchi also knew about Uncle Jiang's plan, especially since Jiang Chengchi killed the guardian of Jiang State, he felt guilty.

After knowing that the Yan family was the patron saint of Qi, he also wanted to try every means to marry a girl from the Yan family, which was why he could fully cooperate with Uncle Jiang.

Jiang Chengchi came over and said, "Your Majesty Qi, did you say Yan Xiaoye and Chen Hong have an agreement?"

His tone and expression of disbelief made Qi Hengyuan frown.

But Qi Hengyuan said nothing.

Qi Hengyuan's rank is not comparable to Jiang Chengchi's.

Qi Hengyuan said calmly, "You asked the wrong person. Yan Xiaoye's fiancé is here. You can go ask him directly. I have only heard about this one thing. After all, Yan Ning is my beloved concubine. I will definitely hear more about Yan Xiaoye's affairs. I have heard about this matter, but I don't know whether they are really engaged or if the two of them fell in love privately and promised to spend their lives together."

This is putting the blame on Chen Hong, and also telling Chen Hong how to cover up the lie.

Chen Hong immediately responded, "Your Majesty, Xiao Ye and I are in love with each other and have exchanged tokens of love. Although the elders of our two families have not sat together to discuss the engagement, we have indeed pledged our lives to each other. Since you are the king of a country, it would be inappropriate for you to snatch someone else's fiancée, right?"

Uncle Jiang coughed and walked over. He first looked at Qi Hengyuan and said, "Your Majesty, since Concubine Yan is Yan Xiaoye's sister, Concubine Yan should know everything about Yan Xiaoye. Especially for such an important matter as marriage, Concubine Yan cannot be vague. But Your Majesty just said that you don't know whether Yan Xiaoye and Chen Hong are secretly in love or have already been engaged. This is a bit difficult to understand."

Qi Hengyuan raised his eyebrows and said, "What's so difficult to understand about this? Even if Yan Ning knows everything about Yan Xiaoye, I can't ask too much. After all, I am a man. Why would I ask about women's affairs?"

"Whether Yan Xiaoye and Chen Hong are secretly in love or have already been engaged, they will get married eventually. When they get married, even if I know about it, what else is there for me to ask?"

Uncle Jiang was speechless for a moment after being confronted by Qi Hengyuan.

This is not wrong. Even if it is his wife, the husband should not ask too much about her sisters. If his wife is willing to talk more, it is okay to listen. If his wife doesn't want to say anything, it is not good to keep asking about her, as it seems inappropriate.
