After the princess entered the palace, the war god prince broke his back
Chapter 52 Marriage Decree
"Your Majesty, Prince Yan is here." Eunuch Jiang Shoujiang, the chief eunuch of the imperial household, reported to the emperor.
The Emperor Xiao Yuanche of the Northern Xiao Kingdom was seen sitting on the dragon throne in a bright yellow dragon robe, reviewing memorials. A giant dragon riding on the clouds and mist on his chest was looking down at the world with its fangs and claws bared. He was like a being above all the people, noble and majestic, making people dare not approach him.
He put down the Xuan brush in his hand, straightened his body, and said in a deep voice: "Xuan!"
"Your son greets you, father!" Xiao Hanye bowed his head.
The voice was respectful yet distant.
"Stand up!" The emperor waved his hand and said slowly, "Has the Beilin Army shown any abnormality recently?"
Xiao Hanye bowed his head again and said: "The Beilin Army has always been disciplined and abided by the rules, father, you can rest assured!"
The moment he lowered his head, a cold light flashed in his eyes.
The Beilin Army was the army under his command, with 300,000 troops, almost accounting for half of the troops of their Beixiao Kingdom.
Whenever his father summoned him, he would always ask him a question.
It is both a question and a reminder.
Never have thoughts that you shouldn’t have.
His father had always been wary of him.
Sure enough, after listening to his routine report, the emperor still refused to give up. He opened his mouth and was about to speak again, but he was beaten to the punch by him.
"Father, if you are free someday, you can inspect the military camp. Today, I have something private to report to you."
"What's the matter?" The emperor looked at Xiao Hanye and couldn't help but narrow his eyes.
When he returned from the war this time, he seemed to be even more violent.
"I fall in love with Chu Nanyue, the daughter of the former Marquis of Changping, and want to marry her as my princess. I hope your Majesty will agree and grant us a marriage!" Xiao Hanye said bluntly.
The emperor had just taken a sip of tea when he heard him say that. He almost bit his tongue. He frowned and asked, "You want to marry a princess? Or the daughter of a criminal?"
Although this is not his favorite son, he is the most brave and warlike son among his knees.
Therefore, he spent the most time and effort on him.
He knew he was not into women.
Not to mention marrying a princess, he didn't even have a maid.
But now he suddenly wants to marry the princess and asks him to grant the marriage. What's going on?
"Yes!" Xiao Hanye replied in a strong and resounding voice.
The emperor stared at him with a pair of majestic eyes. Seeing his serious expression, his brows were filled with anger: "Han'er, you are really making more and more trouble! She is of low status, how can she be the Princess of Yan? If this gets out, where will the dignity of the royal family be?"
"What's more, she was once the Ning Prince's future Princess Ning! Do you want the whole world to laugh at our royal family?"
"My father has also said that on the day I returned to the capital, the two of them had already cancelled their engagement in a busy market place. Since then, marriage has nothing to do with each other. So, to my second brother, I have no disrespect at all, so how can you say it's a joke?" Xiao Hanye replied calmly.
He looked at the emperor who seemed to be about to get furious, curled the corners of his lips, and changed the subject: "As for what you said about Nanyue's low status, it is indeed that this son has not considered it carefully. In this case, then this son will take a step back and take her as a concubine."
"Although the title of concubine sounds nice, it is actually no different from a concubine. This way, it will not damage the dignity of our royal family. What do you think, father?"
"Since she is no different from a concubine, then Han'er should just take her as your concubine!" The anger between the emperor's brows dissipated a little. He relaxed his tired body, leaned on the dragon chair in a comfortable position, and spoke lightly.
Xiao Hanye frowned, as if he was considering something. After a long while, he finally heard a very reluctant voice of compromise: "In that case, then please let the emperor issue an order!"
"She's just a concubine. Why should I grant her a marriage?" The emperor raised his hand and glared at Xiao Hanye unhappily.
"Father, what you said is wrong. I am a concubine because I have to compromise with you out of filial piety. In my heart, Nanyue is the Princess of Yan. Since I cannot give her the title of Princess of Yan, I will let her know my feelings for her. Only father can give me such feelings. I hope you will grant my wish!"
Xiao Hanye walked straight forward with his body held high, his eyes deep and firm.
What princess, concubine, or concubine? He doesn't care. He just wants the old emperor to grant him a marriage!
An imperial edict that makes it clear to the world that Chu Nanyue is the only one who knows him!
Doesn’t that woman want freedom?
He insisted on using a marriage certificate to confine her in Prince Yan's Mansion.
She was unwilling to be used by him, there was no way!
The emperor narrowed his eyes and looked at Xiao Hanye, the expression on his face becoming increasingly gloomy.
Based on his understanding of his son, he knew that it was already the limit for him to give in to Na Chunan Yue as a concubine.
Since Xiao Hanye has given in again and again and never hits someone who smiles at him, he won't be so stingy as to not even write a marriage certificate.
A woman like Nachu Nanyue, who was of low status and without any foundation, was better than him seeking to marry a woman from a well-known and prestigious family with complicated connections.
Thinking of this, the gloom on the emperor's brow disappeared. He waved his hand and said loudly: "Since Han'er is filial and loyal, and has lived up to both of us, your father is very pleased and will grant your approval!"
"Your son thanks you, father!" Xiao Hanye expressed his gratitude loudly.
He looked at the emperor who was writing the imperial decree on the marriage at the desk, and a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Chu Nanyue was at home arguing with a gossipy woman, and had no idea that she, who had always advocated freedom, was once again bound by a marriage certificate.
And my status is even worse than before!
