The queen asked herself, she was also a wife, she was also a daughter, and she also had children.

If I were forced to abandon my husband, leaving my children, King Pingkang and King Qunan, without any status or position, in order to marry another person, how sad I would be.

Therefore, the queen would never help him do such a thing.

The Queen's attitude made Lord Bai feel a little disappointed, and he retreated with a guilty conscience.

Even when I was doing business... I wasn't that good. I was a bit cunning and a dishonest businessman, but I wasn't so immoral.

But he thought he could do anything for his daughter.

This is the only daughter left by him and his wife, and this is his half-wife.

Even if it means sacrificing my own reputation, I can do anything.

Lord Bai wiped away his tears and went to find the emperor.

In front of the imperial study, he knelt directly before the emperor, tears streaming down his face.

The emperor looked at him crying like this, not knowing what was wrong, and hurriedly stepped forward to help him up, "What...what happened?!"

"Beloved?"

"My dear! Why don't you say something? What's wrong?!"

He sighed, cried and said to the emperor: "I am so sorry, Your Majesty!"

"I am the one who is sorry for you."

"I am shameless. I am an old fool. I am too shameless..."

As he said this, he slapped himself repeatedly.

In front of the emperor, she slapped her face until it turned red.

Looking at his appearance, the emperor's expression gradually changed. His appearance made the emperor a little confused.

"This... Lord Bai, what happened?"

"We are the emperor and his subjects, and you are also the emperor's uncle. There is nothing that cannot be discussed. Even if you have committed the crime of treason, for the sake of the queen, I will spare your life and demote you to a commoner."

"...Just say what you need to say."

Hearing this, Lord Bai sighed and said, "There is indeed something that I want to tell Your Majesty that is against the will of the world."

"what's up?"

The emperor listened to his words with some curiosity.

Lord Bai has been an official for many years and has always been honest. He would not tell me anything bad.

His words also made the emperor curious: "You?"

"What else can you do?"

The emperor was happy.

After that, his smile gradually disappeared as Lord Bai spoke.

"It's Bai Zhiyi...the princess's marriage..."

"General Zhou and Princess Mingzhu have been involved in this scandal. I'm sure... Your Majesty has already known about it."

"Since the scandal has already been exposed, why not...why not marry Princess Mingzhu to General Zhou?"

"Otherwise, Princess Mingzhu will have to marry... into the Jinling Lou family."

"The youngest son of the Jinling Lou family! He is such a dandy! Our family doesn't like him! Mingzhu even hanged herself because of this matter. Please show mercy, Your Majesty! Marry Princess Mingzhu to General Zhou!"

As he said this, he bowed his head and spoke to the emperor.

"Now, if we tell General Zhou, he won't listen. But if the Emperor and the Empress issue an order, he will listen! Then we can marry Bai Zhiyi to General Zhou directly."

"..."

The emperor was silent.

"Didn't I tell you before that General Zhou already has a wife and a daughter?"

"And it was Bai Lu and Bai Lu's seven daughters."

"Do you know who Bai Lu is? Bai Lu is the lifesaver of the little prince! If the little prince knew about this, he would definitely not agree."

The emperor frowned and said, "Besides... he already has a wife and a daughter. If you let Princess Mingzhu marry him, will she be his concubine or his equal wife?"

"You are so confused!"

"If I agree to this matter, or if the Queen agrees to it, the whole of Kyoto will laugh at your Bai family."

"And how many people are talking about me and the Queen behind our backs? They have no moral integrity!"

"What the hell were you thinking?!"

The emperor wanted to beat Lord Bai up.

But he managed to hold it back.

He frowned, waved his hand and said, "Hey, I thought it was something else? I didn't expect it to be this kind of thing!"

"Get out of here now, get out!"

"I never want to see you again!"

"..."

Lord Bai knelt on the ground and continued to speak tearfully, "This... This is not to embarrass Your Majesty so much."

"Let Princess Mingzhu marry him, not as a concubine, nor as a co-wife, but... but as the principal wife."

"When the time comes... we can discuss it with General Zhou and ask him to divorce his wife and give his daughter to his wife. Then we can tell the public that General Zhou has never married and has no daughters, and that it's all just rumors from outsiders."

"Then, marry Princess Mingzhu to your family, isn't that the end of it?!"

"Isn't this killing two birds with one stone?!"

"As for Lady White and her seven daughters, we will naturally compensate them, naturally compensate them! We will compensate them generously!"

"What do you think of this, Your Majesty?!"

"..."

The emperor frowned and said, "That's barely human language."

"It's just... what can my wife and daughter do? Will I be happy about it? And will General Zhou be happy about it?!"

"Others can't think that it was General Zhou who made it up. After all, General Zhou is from Liangzhou, and Liangzhou is now in the midst of war. No one can really go to his hometown in Liangzhou to investigate."

"But... this is beyond morality! It also goes against common sense."

The emperor frowned.

He didn't speak.

Finally, Lord Bai said, "Your Majesty, please agree to this matter for my sake."

"His Majesty?"

"Why are you silent?"

"Your Majesty...if you really don't agree, let's call General Zhou into the palace and ask him about this matter. What do you think?"

The emperor sighed and said, "That's fine."

"But can General Zhou really agree to this? I remember that the general is quite decent."

The emperor frowned, but Lord Bai kept begging him, even crying like a ghost in front of him. After thinking about it, the emperor agreed.

"Then I'll listen to you. I'll call General Zhou into the palace and ask him about this matter."

"If you really want to marry Princess Mingzhu to General Zhou, let's ask Princess Mingzhu and General Zhou what they think."
