NFBE Chapter 325 One-time Fate
Chapter 325 One-time Fate
what?
The entire family was executed.
Concubine Shu couldn't help but shudder all over.
The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics.
Her appearance here at this time was originally an accident, but Mu Qianqian had been clamoring to see Emperor Yuanwu.
If she kneeled down in front of Prince Ningguo and begged the emperor not to agree, she would definitely be accused of interfering in government affairs in the future.
Even if Lu Zhaolin did not marry the Sixth Princess of Ningguo this time, he would probably be implicated.
What she is most worried about now is that Emperor Yuanwu will agree to it immediately for the sake of peace between the two countries and less war.
Concubine Shu's heart was beating like thunder.
"I wonder who is the man your princess likes...?" Emperor Yuanwu had already heard Mu Qianqian's thoughts.
At this moment, he was simply asking questions with the answers in mind.
"Your Majesty, the man my younger sister likes is none other than the brother of your country's Concubine Shu, the top scholar of this year's Yuan Kingdom, Lu Zhaolin." After Wei Ziyi finished speaking, he cast his eyes on Concubine Shu.
At this time, Concubine Shu was looking at Emperor Yuanwu with a nervous expression.
What princess of Ningguo.
Isn’t that Princess Chang’an of their Yuan Kingdom?
This Wei Ziyi is really shameless. He has to pretend to be ignorant even though he knows the truth.
However, whether this matter will succeed or not depends on the decision of Emperor Yuanwu.
Concubine Shu's heart suddenly rose to her throat.
"Although Lu Zhaolin is my subject, he is not my child. The Yuan Kingdom has had a saying since ancient times that marriage is a matter of parents' orders and matchmaker's words. Since I am not his parent, I cannot make a decision on this matter. I have to ask Mr. Lu's opinion." Emperor Yuanwu's eyes darkened.
Wei Ziyi was stunned for a moment, then glanced in the direction of Concubine Shu.
I never expected that Emperor Yuanwu was so cunning.
It's not like she's marrying a prince.
He is just a minister, but I still have to ask for his opinion.
This doesn't mean to reject him explicitly.
"I have also heard that in the Yuan Kingdom, no matter if it is a minister or a prince or princess, being able to get a marriage granted by the emperor is a great favor." The eldest brother Wei Ziyi smiled awkwardly: "In this case, why doesn't the emperor directly make this marriage come true."
Emperor Yuanwu said nothing, but just looked at him with gloomy eyes.
As a human being, we all hate being threatened by others.
What’s more, he is the current emperor.
There seemed to be nothing wrong with what Wei Ziyi said.
Just think about it carefully.
He was clearly saying that you, as an emperor, have to ask for his opinion on the marriage of a minister. What ability do you have?
Concubine Shu chuckled, holding Mu Qianqian and turned to look at Wei Ziyi: "Your Majesty, I am not talented and have lived in the deep palace for a long time. I have a few words to say, but I don't know if I should say them or not."
Emperor Yuanwu raised his eyes and said, "You can go on."
Concubine Shu politely bowed to Wei Ziyi and said, "I have been serving in the palace for many years, but I have never heard that the Sixth Princess of Ningguo has been to Yuanguo before? Even if the Sixth Princess has been to Yuanguo before, my brother has been ill and has been recuperating in the mansion. He has only recently recovered. How could he suddenly say that he wishes to win the heart of one person and stay together until old age? Could it be that the Sixth Princess has known my brother before?"
Wei Ziyi was stunned by the question. He looked up and down at Concubine Shu: "This is naturally my first time in Yuan State. I just met Mr. Lu once when I was at the posthouse."
"I see." Concubine Shu smiled faintly: "It is really fate. It is the greatest honor for my family to marry the princess of Ningguo. It is naturally a great joy."
