Chapter 809 Love is fulfillment rather than possession (1)
The empress dowager stared at the emperor in shock; apart from the shock, there was a bit of suspicion in her sharp eyes.

Isn't an empty promise equivalent to a blank imperial decree; let others fill in it.

How can such a thing be child's play!

The emperor ignored the empress dowager's frown; he also ignored the suspicious and sharp eyes of the empress dowager.

He thought for a while, looked at the smiling young girl, and suddenly said: "It seems that there is such a thing; but unfortunately, she has passed away now; even if I once made any promise to her, this promise is useless .”

"No, Your Majesty; this promise may not be useful to her, but it must be fulfilled to you." Dongfang Yu speaks quickly and articulately, and immediately rushed ahead of the Queen Mother, "You are the king of a country; since you know I made a promise back then; if it is not fulfilled, why not be ridiculed by the people of the world, Your Majesty..."

She skipped the second half of the sentence; but what she wanted to express, I believe anyone with ears can understand it.

The emperor frowned, and seemed to sigh helplessly. He spread his hands and pinched the center of his brows again, as if hesitating. Seeing this, the queen mother wanted to say something to stop her, but she had no choice but to remain silent. If it is time to stand up and stop it, then the emperor who has admitted that he has promised to fulfill his promise will be tantamount to slapping the emperor himself.

Of course, she absolutely couldn't do this; but seeing the girl's smug eyes, she felt extremely uncomfortable.

The breath stuck in her heart really vomited her to death.

I also know that the cunning girl has made such a big circle, and she does not hesitate to use the identity of the dead mother as an issue; it is definitely not just to make the emperor nostalgic.

"Xiaoyu, I don't think it's as good as this. In order to make up for my promise that was more than ten years late, I decided to confer on your mother Mei Yue; oh, it's Mei Ruge, right?"

Dongfangyu nodded with a smile, and quickly replied: "Yes, Your Majesty."

Seeing this posture, the Empress Dowager suddenly felt something bad; but her belated reaction naturally couldn't stop the emperor Chrysostom from opening.

"I have decided to confer on your mother, Mei Ruge, the first-class duke."

"Your Majesty is holy; my daughter-in-law kowtows on behalf of the deceased mother to thank the Holy Grace." The girl let out a cheer, her legs bent quickly, and she knelt down with a pounce; before the Queen Mother was surprised and had no time to react, she had already kowtowed three consecutive heads in one breath.

The queen mother just wanted to stop it; it was too late.

After thanking everyone for their kindness, it means that the emperor's imperial edict has been issued.

Has anyone ever heard that the emperor's decree can be changed again.

The girl thanked her, then smiled and stood up spontaneously; her radiant pretty face was full of joy and satisfaction.

I thought that the emperor was worthy of being an emperor; I immediately understood what she wanted.

Didn't the Queen Mother think that her status was not worthy of Mo Bai's status as the heir?

Hmph, now her biological mother is a first-class duke; in other words; as Mei Ruge's only biological daughter, she can inherit the title of first-class duke unconditionally.

Seeing her beaming face, the queen mother almost vomited blood on the spot.

"Hmph, no matter what, the Ai family will never agree to their marriage." Seeing this, the Queen Mother knew that she couldn't stop it; at last she couldn't help showing her identity to suppress her, "Your Majesty, before you make an order to grant a marriage, you should first listen to the marriage." It is better to listen to Prince An's opinion."

The emperor frowned almost invisibly.

Dongfang Yu's heart tightened; because the queen mother actually made such a low-level slip of the tongue.

Doesn't this mean that the emperor has no power to decide things; Prince An has the right to decide!
If the emperor had any thoughts in his heart, wouldn't the empress dowager's words mean that he secretly provoked the emperor's dissatisfaction; even if he was the emperor's elder brother; even if Mo Bai was his elder brother's own son; Brother and nephew; except for that kinship; all were his subjects.

As a king, one must listen to the opinions of his subjects to make decisions.

Isn't this tantamount to indirectly saying that the emperor is incompetent.

If these words are used in decision-making and political affairs in normal times, then it should be another matter; it is a necessary condition for the emperor to be good at accepting advice and to be a wise emperor.

But right now, it's just a decree to bestow a marriage.

The emperor was resolutely displeased with what the queen mother said.

Mo Bai glanced at the emperor's flickering eyes, and thought inwardly that something was wrong.

He immediately stood up, bowed his hands to the emperor, and said lightly: "Your Majesty, your Majesty is naturally the master of your marriage; but I have already said that I will marry no one in this life except Xiaoyu; I also ask your Majesty to complete my marriage." Infatuated; give us a marriage."

The Queen Mother seemed oblivious to the slip of the tongue she made in a hurry just now; seeing that Mo Bai ignored her strong objection and stood up to ask for orders again and again, she couldn't help but burst into anger.

She frowned, her eyes remained sharp; her expression remained strong, "Your Majesty, since ancient times, marriage matters have been decided by the orders of parents and the words of the matchmaker, even if Prince An is not in the imperial capital; but marriage is a lifetime It is a big matter; naturally, there is no rush to grant the marriage; I beg your Majesty to wait to make a decision."

and many more?

The emperor raised the corners of his mouth slightly, squinted his eyes and looked at the queen mother, his eyes were deep and unpredictable, but there was a smile that was not a smile, "Don't forget, queen mother, Prince An is not in the imperial capital at present; but I am also an elder Mobai. "

When the Queen Mother heard the words, her complexion changed drastically immediately, her eyelids widened for a moment, and a cold light flew out, with an expression of disbelief everywhere.

The emperor's expression seemed very ordinary; but his words and his attitude were as much as indicating that he had agreed to the marriage of the two of them, and was going to issue a decree to grant the marriage regardless of the Queen Mother's intervention.

"His Majesty!"

After the queen mother stared, she called out loudly.

The emperor gave her a deep look, with a mysterious and unfathomable glint in his brows.

"Queen, I am not only Mobai's uncle; I am also the king of Dongcheng; I feel that since Xiaoyu and Mobai are in love with each other, I can't do such a thing of breaking up lovers; as the saying goes, I would rather tear down ten houses." Temple, don't destroy a marriage; I, the dignified king of a country, can't be such a villain who destroys marriages."

Dongfangyu raised the corners of his mouth slightly, laughing silently; his eyes were shining brightly at the emperor.

These few words of the emperor are really powerful.

He himself does not want to be a villain who breaks up people's marriages; the implication is that if the Queen Mother continues to oppose, the Queen Mother will be such a hated villain.

The emperor looked at the Empress Dowager, saw her expression was cold and gloomy, and said slowly: "As for the matter you were worried about just now, Empress Dowager, I don't think it is a problem; the marriage between Xiaoyu and Qing'er and the matter of retiring the engagement later; I think Xiaoyu is right; since Princess Youlan can marry Abuluo on behalf of Dongcheng, then the marriage between her and Prince Bai naturally has nothing to teach others."
