Donate 300,000 yuan to invite the God of War to marry, and I ask for a divorce

The Imperial Palace...

The emperor was slow to respond.

Although Wan Zhou knew that if the emperor did not reject it, it meant that he agreed, but the feeling of waiting was really uncomfortable, as if the world had frozen.

"I agree." The emperor finally made a decision and said in a dignified manner: "Such a woman with such a deep heart is worthy of the best man in our Yan country."

God knows how difficult it was for the emperor to make this decision. Ji Nanzheng was working hard for the court at the front line, but he was in the rear and sold him out for 30 yuan.

Ji Nanzheng had such a bad temper. He refused without even a second thought when he was asked to marry his beloved Princess Jingyi. No matter what, as a minister, he was willing to sacrifice his life for the country of Yan and the emperor, and shed his last drop of blood. But as a man, he just wanted to find a woman he loved. She didn't need to be of noble status, as long as he was moved. Please grant his wish, emperor.

When he said this, he was so serious and determined. The emperor seemed to see his younger self. He had been so persistent, but what happened later?

Later, he had countless women, but his heart was always empty.

He admired Ji Nanzheng for taking the affairs of the country and family as his own responsibility, and admired his swift and decisive killing on the battlefield. He cherished such a rare general.

If possible, he didn't want to ruin his persistence.

What can he do? He is the emperor and he has to put the overall situation first. Gu Wanzhou donated a huge sum of money and set an example at this difficult time.

And her request was not excessive, Ji Nanzheng was not engaged, he was the emperor, he had to strike a balance.

The key point is that he spoke too quickly and had already agreed, so he couldn't go back on his word no matter what.

The emperor suddenly felt that the four words "Don't joke, my king" were actually his shackles.

Forget it, forget it, he is the emperor and his subjects are meant to be sold.

Although Ji Nanzheng is very valuable, 30 is not a small amount, so let's sell it first. Anyway, he will probably refuse the marriage when the time comes because of his bad temper.

When he refused the marriage proposal, I had to go along with it in a difficult situation. No one could blame him for doing nothing as the emperor.

I'll give the Gu girl some other compensation when the time comes.

The emperor agreed to Wanzhou's request and asked Wanzhou to raise her head. Wanzhou had been keeping her head down, and since they were far apart, he could not see Wanzhou's face clearly.

But when Wan Zhou raised his head, the emperor's gaze was fixed.

He felt that Wan Zhou's pair of bright black eyes seemed to contain some magic that attracted his gaze and made him unable to look away.

The emperor silently calculated how long it had been since he had seen such a pair of eyes.

A feeling of regret and excitement suddenly swept over him, and the emperor thought of the woman he had briefly met.

In a blink of an eye, it has been more than ten years.

The emperor couldn't help but think, if he had seen through Gu Wanzhou earlier, how great it would be. He wouldn't have to make things difficult for Ji Nanzheng and could have directly taken Gu Wanzhou into the harem. Just based on the huge sum of money she donated to the country, he could have directly made her a noble concubine. Wouldn't that be perfect?

The emperor felt regretful.

But the next moment, he became happy again.

With Ji Nanzheng’s bad temper, he will most likely refuse the marriage proposal. Then, Gu Wanzhou will still be his.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Wan Zhou didn't know what the emperor was thinking. Finally, he got the answer, and his heart, which had been tense for a long time, finally relaxed. He thanked him respectfully.

Xie Kui on the side wiped the sweat off his face and took two deep breaths.

"Ms. Gu, congratulations." After leaving the palace, Xie Kui congratulated Wan Zhou in a humble manner.

Wan Zhou smiled and responded, "Thank you, sir."

“No, no.” Xie Kui bowed again and said, “Just now, I went to your house and saw a torture bench…” He looked at Wan Zhou meaningfully, trying to find out what Wan Zhou meant.

When he went in, he noticed a weird atmosphere. Those people looked at Wan Zhou in unusual ways. With his many years of experience as a veteran in officialdom, he made some associations of his own.

Of course, as a veteran in officialdom, it is even less likely that he would meddle in other people’s affairs.

However, as the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, he gained a lot of favor in front of the emperor because of accepting this donation. Wan Zhou, as the donor of this money, can also be considered his benefactor.

Now she is going to be married to General Ji, so she will be the general's wife in the future.

Although he was a third-rank official, Ji Nanzheng, Duke Dingguo's Mansion? It was not something he could curry favor with just because he wanted to.

This is a rare opportunity, so of course he has to show his courtesy and goodwill, as it might be useful in the future.

Seeing Wan Zhou's frank look, without any intention, he said, "If Miss Gu needs me for anything in the future, I will be honored to thank you."

"Thank you, sir." Wan Zhou knew that Xie Kui's kindness was partly because of his marriage with Ji Nanzheng, but she still said sincerely: "There will be many things in the future where I will need you, sir. Please don't find it troublesome when the time comes."

She was just being polite, but Xie Kui's eyelids twitched.

This sounds so familiar.

Yes, that’s right. Just now in the palace hall, Wan Zhou used this trick on the emperor. The four people who said “the king’s words are not joking” made the emperor very embarrassed.

You can't take Gu Wanzhou lightly when dealing with her.

But the words have been spoken.

Xie Kui's shrewd eyes rolled and he smiled, "Of course, as long as Miss Gu needs it, I will do my best."

Xie Kui personally escorted Wan Zhou back to Gu's house. Wan Zhou said goodbye to Xie Kui and just as he entered the second gate, Jiang Mu pounced on him like a tiger pouncing on its prey and grabbed Wan Zhou.

He flattered her, "Wanzhou, what did the emperor say? You didn't tell the emperor about breaking off the engagement, did you?"

Mother Jiang looked at Wan Zhou. Her previous arrogance was gone, and she even looked at him with some pleading.

Following Jiang Mu's words, the others looked at Wan Zhou, their eyes somewhat anxious.

Wan Zhou glanced at the crowd lightly, and felt very happy when she saw those people who were originally arrogant looking at her dejectedly one by one.

Have these people finally come to their senses? Although she lost her 30 yuan, she had signed in before the emperor, and she was no longer someone they could manipulate at will.

Judging from these people's reactions, they must be eager to know whether she has exposed their ugliness in front of the emperor, right?

Let them be anxious, the more anxious they are, the less she will say.

"Hey, please tell me quickly." Seeing Wan Zhou's indifferent expression and not saying anything, Jiang's mother felt heartbroken and urged him impatiently.

"Aunt, does it matter whether I say it or not?"

Now you know you're anxious, but where's the arrogance you had when you threw the divorce papers to her?

"Sister Wanzhou, you definitely didn't say that, right?" Jiang Xuan saw that his mother couldn't get a good deal from Wanzhou, so he stepped in himself.

Gu Wanzhou likes him, so he will naturally show some favoritism to him.

In fact, he had been looking at Wan Zhou since she entered the room. He always felt that Wan Zhou in front of him seemed to be particularly different, as if she was more beautiful than before.

As he was speaking, he suddenly realized that Wan Zhou's change was simply because she combed her bangs.

Wan Zhou had always had thick bangs, which made him look dull and boring, but the person in front of him had a smooth forehead, and his eyes were so bright and beautiful. Yes, Wan Zhou, who was still a little kid, was very good-looking, but he had almost forgotten it because of his bangs over the years.

I couldn't help but look at it twice more.

"I said it." Wan Zhou felt sick when Jiang Xuan called her sister.

"You!" Jiang Xuan gritted his teeth in anger when he heard it.

Wan Zhou actually gave him a cold face? This was the first time? Besides, how could she not consider his future?

He was angry and shocked.

When Mother Jiang heard this, six of her seven souls were blown away.

"How can you be so vicious? Oh my God, what should I do? What should I do? It's all over..." Mother Jiang held her forehead and was about to faint this time.

vicious?

Wan Zhou said coldly: "Aunt, you threw the letter of divorce in my face, how can I be considered vicious if I tell you the truth?"

Tell the truth?

"You said I threw the divorce agreement in your face?" Mother Jiang's eyes widened again, almost popping out.

It's over! It's over!

"Aunt, you know I won't lie."

"You, I will fight you to the death." Mother Jiang was almost mad and tried to grab Wan Zhou. "Since you want to destroy my Jiang family, I will destroy you as well."

Gu Wanzhou said that the emperor would definitely punish the Jiang family. The Jiang family was finished, and she couldn't let Gu Wanzhou have an easy time.
