Chapter 211: Resolve a Concern
After the court meeting, Prince Shun and Prince Ning walked together. Not long after they walked out of the hall, Prince Shun couldn't help but lower his voice and said bitterly: "Humph, this old ninth looked useless in the past, but now he wants to get close to General Dong's family."
Prince Ning said slowly and meaningfully: "Royal brother, don't worry, Murong Xuanyi is actually more unwilling to let him marry General Dong's daughter smoothly."
Upon hearing this, Prince Shun nodded slightly, obviously agreeing with Prince Ning's point of view. After all, Murong Xuanyi was more confident about ascending the throne, so he naturally did not want such a powerful opponent to appear out of nowhere at this critical moment.
After the court session, Murong Xuanyi came to the Yangxin Palace. Emperor Kang Ren was sitting at the table having a meal. When he saw Murong Xuanyi, the movements of his hands paused unconsciously.
He glanced at Murong Xuanyi and said in a cold tone: "What are you doing here again? Aren't the affairs in the court enough for you to be busy with?"
Murong Xuanyi looked indifferent. He walked forward slowly and said, "Father, Murong Xuanyu just proposed to marry General Dong's daughter in public in the court. I am here to ask for your opinion?"
When Emperor Kang Ren heard this, he first widened his eyes with shock in his eyes. Obviously, he did not expect that the ninth brother would ask to marry the daughter of the Dong family. This was really beyond his expectations.
He was stunned for a long while before he came back to his senses. His eyes gradually became more complicated and his brows were slightly furrowed, as if he was thinking about the many interests behind it.
Emperor Kang Ren then looked at Murong Xuanyi warily again, and seeing that he had no extra expression, it seemed that he really just came to ask for his opinion. So he spoke slowly.
"Old Nine is not young anymore, so let's issue an imperial decree to grant him the marriage. This will also help him put his worries to rest."
Murong Xuanyi curled his lips and said, "Okay, since the emperor agrees, I will go and issue the decree on your behalf."
After that, Murong Xuanyi said no more and walked out of the imperial study. Emperor Kang Ren looked at Murong Xuanyi and was really unsure whether the one who was there was the real him. It was as if it was not him who forced him to abdicate a few days ago.
He looked at Murong Xuanyi's background, and said to Fuquan beside him: "Fuquan, what do you think this rebellious son is thinking? The ninth prince wants to marry General Dong's daughter, but he agreed so easily and even took the initiative to ask for my advice. It's really hard to understand." Emperor Kang Ren frowned, his face full of confusion and worry.
Fuquan bowed slightly and replied respectfully: "Your Majesty, I cannot guess what Your Highness is thinking, but Your Highness has always acted decisively and wisely. Perhaps you think this marriage will not have much impact on the situation in the court, so you agreed so readily."
Emperor Kang Ren shook his head gently, "It's not that simple. This rebellious son has a deep mind. If the ninth brother relies on the power of the Dong family, he will be a strong opponent. How could he not know the pros and cons? There must be a deep meaning behind his move." Emperor Kang Ren wondered if he agreed too readily.
On the other hand, after Murong Xuanyu came out of the court, although he was a little uneasy about what Murong Xuanyi meant, he thought that he had taken this crucial step after all. As long as his father agreed, the marriage would be almost done. He went straight to Dong's house with joy. He wanted to tell Dong Qingqing the news as soon as possible.
Arriving at the Dong residence, General Dong and Dong Qingting listened to the situation at the court meeting. Dong Qingqing's pretty face turned slightly red, her eyes full of shyness and expectation. General Dong smiled and patted Murong Xuanyu on the shoulder and said:
"Your Highness, we are now waiting for His Majesty's order, but I believe that with the ability of Your Highness Prince Jing, this matter will definitely be accomplished."
Murong Xuanyu nodded repeatedly, looked at Dong Qingqing tenderly, and said, "Qingqing, don't worry, my fifth brother will definitely ask the emperor to issue an order as soon as possible. I can't wait to marry you."
Dong Qingqing glared at him in reproach and said in a tender voice: "Look at you, the decree hasn't even been officially issued yet and you're already talking nonsense. Aren't you afraid that others will laugh at you?" Although she said this, she felt sweet in her heart.
General Dong looked at the sweet and loving interaction between the young man and woman in front of him, and his weather-beaten face gradually relaxed, revealing a relieved and kind smile, his eyes full of expectations for the two of them.
Then, General Dong said earnestly, "Your Highness, I am really impressed by your performance in the court today. I hope you can continue to maintain this courage and determination and contribute to the court in the future."
After all, their Dong family has been a lineage of military generals for generations, and the word "strong" is engraved in their bones. Naturally, they hope that their future son-in-law can make achievements in the court and make a difference.
Murong Xuanyu nodded solemnly, "Don't worry, Uncle Dong, Xuanyu will definitely live up to your expectations." He understood the deep meaning of General Dong's words. This was not only an expectation for him, but also a test for him.
After leaving Dong's house, Murong Xuanyu was in an extremely happy mood. He seemed to have seen the bright future that he and Dong Qingqing would spend together.
Murong Xuanyi quickly arranged for someone to go to the Imperial Astronomical Observatory to select an auspicious date, and the two set their wedding date on May 20th. Puyang Zhou was increasingly confused, and he could no longer understand the behavior of the royal family. In the past, the royal family's weddings mostly followed tradition and tended to be held in winter, but now they seem to be less obsessed with these old customs. Why are the weddings of the royal family members so eager?
Two days later, the imperial edict granting the marriage arrived at the Dong Mansion and the Ninth Prince's Mansion respectively.
The whole Dong Mansion was filled with jubilation, and the maids and servants ran around to tell each other. The festive atmosphere seemed to cover the entire mansion. When Dong Qingqing received the imperial edict, her hands trembled slightly, and her eyes were filled with tears of excitement. This imperial edict meant that her marriage with Murong Xuanyu was a done deal, and from now on she would spend her life with her beloved. General Dong was also smiling, with a lot of emotion in his heart. His daughter could have such a destination, which was also a relief for him. He only hoped that the young couple could live happily together in the future.
In the Ninth Prince's Mansion, Murong Xuanyu was even more ecstatic. He held up the imperial edict high and shouted to everyone in the mansion: "The imperial edict has arrived today. This prince will marry the daughter of the Dong family soon. From now on, everyone must manage the affairs of the mansion well and don't make any mistakes." The servants responded in unison, and each of their faces was filled with joy.
