"..."

The emperor looked unhappy, and he obviously felt that this matter was a bit unfair to the Bai family.

The three young masters of the Bai family were actually in the hands of people from Liangzhou Prefecture. This was simply a matter of life and death.

But he also wanted to know if the three sons of the Bai family were fools. How could they go to Liangzhou Prefecture at such a critical moment when Liangzhou Prefecture was in rebellion? If he didn't know that the three sons of the Bai family were all loyal people, he might have really thought that the people of the Bai family were going to rebel and help King Cheng.

The emperor sighed, and then said helplessly: "Don't worry, I will definitely help you with this matter."

"I will also ask the general to pay close attention to the three young masters of the Bai family and rescue them."

"If... they take the three young masters of the Bai family as hostages, then I will not easily let them shoot the three young masters of the Bai family for the sake of the city and the people."

"So, are you relieved?"

Lord Bai quickly knelt down and kowtowed, tears streaming down his face.

"Your Majesty! I am relieved. I am relieved."

He was just worried about the three young masters of the Bai family. If they were held hostage by the enemy, he told Da Wu that if they dared to take a step forward, he would kill the three young masters of the Bai family.

Isn't it because he is worried about this? Otherwise, why would he come to the emperor to talk about this matter?

You know, they are very likely to do such a thing. Those rebels...are not good people.

Hearing this, the emperor waved his hand and smiled at him.

"Now that you have finished speaking, Lord Bai, please leave."

"..."

Lord Bai was stunned. He always felt that the emperor didn't like him very much. Why was that? He also felt it when he went to court recently. The emperor didn't seem to like him very much.

I can’t really describe it…it’s just a feeling of slight disgust.

Then Lord Bai had a vague thought that the emperor might be unhappy because his daughter, Princess Mingzhu, had often entered the palace to accompany the queen recently.

This is possible. I heard that there were rumors in the harem before that Princess Mingzhu met the emperor. No one knows what the emperor said, but it made Princess Mingzhu very sad. Princess Mingzhu even sobbed a few times and was sick at home for several days.

It was the old doctor that the Queen personally found who came to the Bai Mansion and cured the princess.

Lord Bai didn't know how Princess Mingzhu had offended the emperor. He sighed. He only had this one precious daughter. He had raised her for such a long time, and he couldn't let her be rejected by the emperor.

After that, it depends on the emperor to arrange a good marriage for his precious daughter, Princess Mingzhu.

Afterwards, the emperor looked at Mr. Bai and saw that he was unwilling to leave, so he asked him, "Why are you standing here? Is there something important?"

“This… is indeed true.”

As Lord Bai spoke, he could not help but turn to the emperor and said, "Speaking of which, there is another important matter. Your Majesty, please give me some advice."

"You said."

"I also have a daughter who just went on tour. She is Princess Mingzhu Bai Zhiyi. I'm sure your Majesty knows this."

When the emperor heard the name, his eyes flickered, then he nodded and said.

"I know, what's wrong?"

Then I heard Lord Bai say.

"I lost my daughter when she was young. She was my beloved daughter left by my first wife. She was even favored by His Majesty and the Queen, who named her a princess... and bestowed upon her the extremely noble title of Princess Mingzhu."

“This title is really too precious.

We all feel the love and care of His Majesty and the Queen."

"...It's just that I am really frightened and sad!"

"Because my daughter has been living away from home for many years, her behavior is not very elegant and she is afraid that she will be laughed at by the noble ladies in Kyoto."

"So we wanted to find her a husband who would not make fun of her but would love and care for her..."

What he meant was that he wanted to find someone who looked up to Princess Mingzhu and who was also powerful.

The question was put to the emperor.

Anyway, the Bai family is rich and has a queen, so the marriage of Princess Mingzhu must be carefully decided.

Some people said before that they wanted Princess Mingzhu to marry the prince, but Father Bai himself didn’t want Princess Mingzhu to marry the prince.

If I marry the prince, there might be some fight for the throne in the future...and that would be chaos.

It would be better to choose a very good husband for Princess Mingzhu and let her get married.

Anyway, Lord Bai really loves this caring and pitiful daughter in his heart.

He wanted to find a very good husband for Princess Mingzhu, one who was powerful but would not bully his daughter.

It is best to stay away from disputes and live a life of wealth and glory. That would be great.

Hearing this, the emperor stroked his chin, "...From what you said, it seems that a military general is more suitable."

"Military generals are all rough and don't pay as much attention to red tape as scholars."

"And he is also powerful and will not let your daughter suffer any loss."

"!!!"

Hearing this, Lord Bai almost broke out in a cold sweat.

He quickly knelt down again and said, "But your majesty, a military commander... a military commander is not suitable."

"Our daughters are so delicate and fragile that I'm afraid they can't stand the torture of a military commander!"

This is certainly not the real reason.

The real reason, of course, is that they are afraid of external relatives interfering in politics.

If the daughter of the Bai family married a military general, who knows how the emperor would secretly harm the Bai family.

Then the emperor said with a smile.

"What's the big deal? I can just choose a general for you myself."

What the emperor meant was that there was no need to worry about suspicion.

The military general whom the emperor granted marriage by decree must be a very powerful person and one whom the emperor trusted.

Since the emperor has granted the marriage, the ministers certainly cannot say anything else.

Then the emperor said, "Speaking of...military commander, I already have a candidate in mind."

"If you don't tell me, I will also arrange a marriage for another general."

"We have a general named Zhou in Dawu. He is now in his 20s. He is not interested in women in the army and should have never been married."

"Besides, he doesn't have much power. I heard that he is just from a small place in Liangzhou."

"My parents are both common people."

"In this case, your Bai family rarely has good control over such a family. Moreover, General Zhou will surely be very happy to give the princess of your Bai family to him."
