Cultivating Immortality, Starts with Green Plum

Chapter 469 You Will Love It

"..."

When Xu Ming heard Emperor Wu say this, he was stunned.

Xu Ming even suspected that he had heard it wrongly.

What did Emperor Wu just say?
Fair wife?

Emperor Wu is really a genius...

You can even think of something like having a concubine.

Indeed, whether he marries Yan Han or Tang Ningzhi, it will cause dissatisfaction in both countries. If he marries Yan Han, it will be difficult to explain to Tang Ningzhi's country.

After all, their national strength is equal to yours, and they even married their eldest princess to you, or even married her to you as a descendant.

A refusal of marriage like this is basically the same as breaking off an engagement.

If he married Tang Ningzhi, he would have no way to explain to the Wu Kingdom.

You didn't marry your own daughter, but married the daughter of another dynasty. What do you think the people of Wu will think?
Moreover, during this period, various storybooks circulated in the Wu Kingdom all portrayed Xu Ming and Wu Yanhan as the male and female protagonists, and they finally became a couple.

These vernacular novels were very popular among the talented scholars of the Wu State and the ladies of prominent families.

Moreover, this kind of arrangement of royal matters is basically prohibited, but the Wu State officials have not made any statement at all, which shows that they have tacitly acknowledged the relationship between the two people.

From this we can see that Wu State still has high expectations for this marriage.

But if it is a co-wife, there is basically no such worry.

The status of the two princesses were equal, and neither the Chu State nor the Wu State could find any fault with them.

If you insist on finding fault, then my daughter is in the same status as your daughter.

how?

Is it possible that your daughter is more noble than my daughter?

So at this time, the problem was thrown to the State of Chu.

Are you willing for your daughter to be an equal wife to my daughter?
If you are willing, you can marry your daughter to me.

If you don't want to, just go back and we'll pretend nothing happened.

Even the State of Chu should give us some compensation. After all, I promised you, but you went back in the end. It would be unreasonable for you not to give me some compensation.

Xu Ming admitted that this was indeed a good countermeasure, but if it were an ordinary dynasty, it would probably not agree.

But the problem is that the other party is the State of Chu, and they have even done something like asking his daughter to marry into the family.

There's no way the other party will actually agree.

To be honest, even if the other party agreed, Xu Ming didn't think there would be anything strange about it.

"Your Majesty, I think this matter should not be decided so quickly. Besides, the princess of Chu and Yan Han probably won't agree to it."

Xu Ming declined politely.

Moreover, Xu Ming felt that what he said made sense and fully took into account the relationship between the two of them.

Even if I am willing to marry both of them, what if they don't want to have equal wives?

And no matter what, Xu Ming really has no plans to get married now, and Xu Ming really doesn't want to marry someone he doesn't even know.

Although this princess of Chu was indeed very beautiful, the problem was that beauty alone could not be used to ignore other issues.

I just want to be responsible to Yanhan now, but this is not the time.

If I marry Yan Han now, it would be irresponsible to Yan Han. Later I will go to the Demon Kingdom in the Southern Border and the Northern Wilderness, all of which are very dangerous.

He might even end up in that place. To be honest, whether he went to the Kingdom of Chu or the Kingdom of the Southern Monster, Xu Ming didn't think he would be able to come back alive.

What Xu Ming actually hoped was that he could finish dealing with all these things before marrying Wu Yanhan.

Of course, before marrying Wu Yanhan, he must also give Qingwan an explanation.

However, Emperor Wu gave himself a good idea.

That is to simply not have a legal wife.

As long as there is no legal wife, they are all his legal wives.

So now he has no way to marry Yan Han, not to mention that Tang Ningzhi has come.

If I marry her, I will really not be able to leave.

Listening to Xu Ming's words, how could Emperor Wu not know that Xu Ming was rejecting him.

However, Emperor Wu will not be rejected so easily this time.

This time it's a matter of national importance, and it's not of the nature of the marriages I arranged before.

If it is not handled properly, the already bad relationship between the two countries may very likely explode.

"I will tell Yan Han and the Tang princess about this matter, so you don't have to worry." Emperor Wu said, "But if it comes to pass, Xu Ming, you need to be prepared."

As he spoke, Emperor Wu patted Xu Ming on the shoulder and said, "You are the first among the ten great dynasties of the human race to marry two princesses."

Xu Ming's brows twitched: "..."

Xu Ming really didn't want to be the first one.

But Emperor Wu had already made up his mind, and it seemed that he really could not refuse this matter.

But Xu Ming was not worried.

Yanhan and the princess from the Tang Kingdom would definitely not agree to this.

In Xu Ming's opinion, Yan Han and the Tang princess have one thing in common, which is that they are both very arrogant.

Of course, they also have the ability to do so.

"Okay, you've worked hard these days. You can go down first and wait for the imperial edict." Emperor Wu directly asked Xu Ming to go back, and it seemed that there was no room for compromise.

After Xu Ming left the palace, he couldn't help but sigh, feeling quite helpless.

Xu Ming walked on the streets of the imperial city, planning to find a teahouse to have some tea.

Xu Ming went to a teahouse he had heard of before.

Whenever Xu Ming went back to Wudu in the past, he would go to listen to storytelling when he had nothing to do, but he never went to a fixed place.

It is said that the storyteller in this teahouse is very good, so whenever he has a show, there are always many people in the teahouse.

Of course, this time Xu Ming went to drink tea not just to listen to storytelling.

Xu Ming walked into the teahouse, and soon the waiter came up to greet him: "Sir, please come in quickly. I wonder if you want to go upstairs or sit down."

"Go upstairs. I heard that Mr. Chen's storytelling is pretty good. I want to come and listen."

Xu Ming said.

"Oh, sir, you really have good taste. Our Mr. Chen is absolutely first-rate in our Wudu. It's just that many people don't know this and only think that the storytellers in the big teahouses are better."

The waiter said this proudly, looking very respectful.

"Come on, please come upstairs, sir. Mr. Chen's performance is about to begin. You will definitely like the music we are performing today."
