famous eldest daughter

Chapter 435
Xiao Yi curled up her lips indifferently, "I just want to marry a princess who can sit in my backyard. I don't know who I have chosen. Gu Yuqing manages the Chinan Hou Mansion by herself, so her ability is natural , but the one I like is Gu Zhen."

Luo Zhisong sneered in his heart, marrying someone else's daughter only because of his father's strength... From the beginning to the end, Xiao Yi was like this, regarding women as a means to achieve his goals.

Her slender hands couldn't help but clench her fists, the mist in her eyes was filled with ice, but the expression on her face remained unchanged forever. "If Your Highness asks me, I think this marriage is inappropriate." There was a slight indifference in the voice.

It's just that Xiao Yi was immersed in the world he had drawn, and didn't notice it. Hearing this, the satisfied smile on his face stagnated, and he turned to look at Luo Zhisong, "What do you mean, sir?" His tone was displeased.

Luo Zhisong didn't move his eyes.

"Let's not mention other things, but now, everyone knows that Gu Yuqing was killed, and the fourth prince risked his life to save him. The two of them lived together day and night, alone. His Highness is afraid that the rumors about this matter will be worse than those he heard. Young Master, under such circumstances, do you think that Lord Gu will agree to marry Miss Gu to another person?"

"The Gu family is a century-old family, and its heritage is not comparable to that of a newly rich family. A daughter's reputation is even more important."

"Furthermore, the Fourth Highness is willing to risk his life to save her, which is enough to show that he is very fond of Miss Gu. Your Highness intervenes in it. Will the Fourth Highness let him go? Isn't it possible that His Highness is not afraid that because of this matter, the Fourth Highness will let the Fourth Highness who has never sought to improve Your Highness, will you give it a try?"

"Throughout the ages, there are many examples of people getting angry just for beauty. Your Highness loves reading. I don't think I need to say more."

Ignoring the change in Xiao Yi's expression, Luo Zhisong just said his words in an orderly manner.

Xiao Yi listened, but there was a look of impatience on his face. He raised his hand and interrupted Luo Zhisong, "Sir, there is no need to say more. This king has made up his mind on this matter. It doesn't matter whether Gu Zhen is willing to part with it or not. , Gu Yuqing, this king is determined to marry you."

Seeing this, Luo Zhisong stopped picking up the interrupted words. He only picked up the already cold tea cup and held it in his hand. He looked at Chu Yan who was standing behind Xiao Yi with a vague look. He lowered his head and stared at the tea leaves that had completely stretched in the tea cup, his mind moving slightly, but no one knew what he was thinking.

Since the conversation was unpleasant, Xiao Yi no longer stayed with Luo Zhisong. After he left, he lingered in the study for a while and then entered the palace.

In the royal study room in the palace, the emperor could not rest at peace.

General Gongsun Mu stood a few steps away from his desk with a pale face, "Your Majesty, I have been an official for many years and have never asked Your Majesty for anything. Now, I really can't do anything. Please forgive me for generations." Zhongliang, for the sake of fighting on the battlefield for me, I will give this old minister this thin face and grant me a marriage."

The emperor held his chin in his hand, his face full of melancholy, and his brows were so furrowed that a knot could form.

If he had known that Gongsun Mu would come to ask for a marriage to Xiao Yu for his second daughter, he should have issued an imperial edict to marry Gu Yuqing long ago to avoid the current trouble.

But in this world, even if you regret so much that your intestines are black and blue, there is no panacea for regret.

After Gongsun finished speaking, the emperor took a deep breath and said extremely feebly: "Don't you know that my fourth son is very happy with Gu Yuqing from the Chinan Marquis Mansion. Moreover, I have agreed to their marriage. The marriage will be decreed soon."

When Gongsun Mu heard the words, he immediately said: "But after all, haven't you made an order yet?"

Hearing him say this, the emperor felt displeased, "Are you forcing me?"

Hearing this, Gongsun Mu's knees softened immediately, and he knelt down with a "plop", "I dare not! Only the old minister's daughter is really troubled at home. Your Majesty can't just watch the old minister give away the white-haired man! She insists on marrying Your Majesty, Fourth Highness, I have done everything I can and can say, otherwise I would not have come to His Majesty to ask for help. I hope Your Majesty will be considerate of me."

The emperor glared at him bitterly.

I sympathize with you, who sympathizes with me!
Your daughter is willing to die in order to marry my son. Do you know what my lawless son will be able to do once I change my will and make Gongsun Qi my royal concubine?
The emperor himself could not even guess what Xiao Yu would do if he really proposed Gongsun Qi to marry Xiao Yu. Thinking of this, he felt cold in his vest and numb in his scalp.

What's more, there is Gu Zhen... Thinking of Gu Zhen's reaction, the emperor's scalp went numb.

"I can sympathize with you, but you tell me, what should I do with Gu Zhen? Right now, he is still fighting on the battlefield, but I gave you the marriage that originally belonged to his daughter from the rear."

Hearing this, Gongsun Mu lowered his head and remained silent, but said nothing.

He didn't say anything, and the emperor just kept leaning there with his chin in his hands, saying nothing.

Old man, come here to embarrass me, you kneel down and I sit down to see who can afford it!
For a long time, until Gongsun Mu's legs trembled a little, and a dense layer of sweat oozed from his forehead, and he still kept talking to the emperor, Gongsun Mu couldn't bear it anymore, so he said quietly: "If your majesty is really in trouble, you might as well E Huang Nv Ying."

As soon as he said this, the emperor's hand holding his cheek trembled, and he almost shook half of his cheek out.

Queen E's daughter-in-law, thank you for telling me.

"What if Yu'er doesn't want to marry your daughter?" The emperor changed the subject and asked another question.

Gongsun Mu was stunned. He really hadn't thought about this.

Marriage matters, from ancient times to the present, have been dictated by parents and matchmakers. Even though the royal family is different from ordinary people's families, this principle is understood.The emperor granted me a marriage. Whether the fourth prince is willing or not, even if he is not willing, what else can he do? Is it possible that he still has to resist the decree?
"Although my daughter is not as good as Gu Yuqing of the Chinan Marquis Mansion, she has been in charge of the family since she was a child, but after all she is well-educated and well-versed in all kinds of music, chess, calligraphy and painting. As for her appearance, she is no less good than Gu Yuqing." Gongsun Mu said: "Princess E Ying, the fourth prince had two bridal chambers in one day, which can be considered a good story."

The implication is that my daughter is no worse than Gu Yuqing, so why would he not want to.

Gongsun Mu said this, and the emperor smiled, "In this way, I will remember your matter. When Yu'er comes to the palace tomorrow, I will ask him what he means. If he is willing to marry Huang E, I will give him a hand. , but if he doesn’t want to..."

The smile on his lips grew thicker, and the emperor trailed off, paused briefly, and then said: "But if he doesn't want to, Aiqing also knows that I have always doted on this son, and I still do not care about marriage. You must comply with his wishes. You came to me to beg for your daughter. It can be said that your father's love is as deep as a mountain, and you are sincere. I am also reluctant to let go of my son and he feels wronged."

The emperor's meaning is clear.

Whether it's okay or not depends on Xiao Yu's words. It's not that I won't give you face. In fact, whose children are loved by others, there is absolutely no reason to embarrass my son just for the sake of your daughter's peace of mind.
