Chapter 20 Pros and Cons
Inside the palace's bedroom, the emperor finally recovered after several days of rest. His face was rosy, his spirits were high, and his eyes sparkled with gratitude.
"Old Nine, I want to thank you. If you hadn't found the medicine, I would have been in great danger this time."
"Royal brother, this medicinal ingredient was found by a young master in the deep mountains and old forests. If you want to thank someone, thank that young master!"
"What about others?"
"My dear brother, I don't know who he is."
"Send someone to look for him and I will reward him handsomely."
"Yes."
"Brother Emperor, the hidden danger in the palace has been eliminated. I would like to return to my fiefdom for a while before returning to the military camp."
"Old Nine, why are you in such a hurry to go back? Is there a girl waiting for you in Yunzhou?"
"Royal brother, you are such a joke. In my mansion, there are only servants and servants. How can there be any girls waiting for me?"
"Since you don't have anyone you like and you've reached the age to get married, your royal brother will choose a wife for you from among the major families in the capital, and after you get married, we'll return to Yunzhou together."
"Brother Emperor, I do not want to get married for the time being."
"What? You have someone in your heart."
"Brother Chen..."
At this time, the Queen Mother came over and said, "Your son, I greet you, the Queen Mother."
"Your Majesty, how is the dragon's health?"
"Thank you for your concern, mother. Everything is fine."
"Okay, mother is relieved now."
"Laojiu, you're not a child anymore, it's time to get married."
"Mother, my brother the Emperor has ordered me to return to Yunzhou for important matters."
"What important matter must a prince like you handle? Are the guards just for show?"
The emperor smiled faintly, "Mother, this time the medicine was found by a young man, and I want to reward him handsomely."
"That's as it should be. Just tell the guards to do it. The ninth one will stay and choose the queen."
"Mother..."
"After you get married, I will go back to Yunzhou with you or go to the military camp. I don't care. But now you must get married before leaving the capital, otherwise I won't agree."
"Mother, you are forcing me to do what I want."
"Ai Jia, how can it be so difficult to ask you to marry a wife?"
"I don't want to marry a wife for the time being. There are a lot of military affairs waiting for me to deal with when I return to the barracks."
The emperor and the empress dowager both looked at Shangguan Yunting. They had never seen him so anxious to return to his fiefdom before. The more they looked at him, the more they felt that his words were not credible.
"Old Nine, tell me the truth. Do you have a girl you like in Yunzhou? If so, I will agree to make her a concubine, provided you marry Xier first and make her Princess Mu."
The emperor and Shangguan Yunting's expressions changed instantly. They looked at each other, and Shangguan Yunting said firmly: "Mother, I have said before that I don't like my cousin and I will not marry her."
"Your cousin has admired you for years and has waited for you for years. She's beautiful and proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. What's wrong with her?"
"No matter how good she is, I don't like her, so please don't mention her again, Mother."
"This time, the Queen Mother cannot agree to your request. You must marry Xi'er, otherwise..."
Shangguan Yunting quickly interrupted the Queen Mother and said coldly, "Mother, do you really have to force me?"
"Mother, this is for your own good, why would I force you?"
"The Huo family's status in the capital is unmatched, and my uncle is even going to marry his daughter to me."
"It's because the Queen Mother likes Xier that she wants to marry her as her daughter-in-law. It has nothing to do with your uncle."
"Mother, you are a daughter of the Huo family. I can understand that you are thinking about the Huo family. My brother has already married a daughter of the Huo family as his queen, and you are forcing me to marry another one. Is it true that the daughters of the Huo family can only marry us brothers?"
"You are my uncle's sister and the mother of us brothers. Don't force me just because my uncle nags you."
"The Huo family is already powerful, what else does my uncle want?"
The Queen Mother said with a sad face: "Your Majesty, do you think so too?"
The Emperor looked at the Empress Dowager firmly and seriously and said, "Mother, what I think is not important. What is important is what my uncle thinks. You are a daughter of the Huo family. It is understandable that you strive for glory for the family, but excessive honor will backfire."
"You've been in the harem for many years and you should understand that the court and the harem are inextricably linked. Once too many people are involved, everything could be lost."
"If my uncle continues to be greedy, the end of the Huo family is imaginable. I don't want to see my mother in trouble, and I don't want to see the end of the Huo family."
"When you have time, please persuade my uncle. The Shangguan family is the empire of the Great Qi. It was also conquered by our ancestors. No one else can dare to interfere."
"If you touch my bottom line, I will not let it go."
The empress dowager looked at the emperor in horror, her face extremely ugly. She was stunned for a moment, gritted her teeth, stood up and left.
"Your son respectfully sends you off, mother."
As the brothers watched the Queen Mother leave, they felt mixed emotions. After all, she was their biological mother and had suffered a lot for them.
But this time it must be made clear, so that she can understand the relationship between the monarch and his subjects. Even the king's uncle cannot usurp the imperial power.
"Brother, you should have told Mother this long ago."
"In fact, the Queen Mother understands it in her heart, but every time my uncle comes to nag her, she just can't bear to refuse. This time, if I analyze the pros and cons for her, she will understand it soon."
"hope so."
"When do you plan to return to Yunzhou?"
"tomorrow."
"So urgent."
"With you in the palace, there will be no more chaos. I will send someone to bring the person over after I find him. I will go directly back to the military camp from Yunzhou."
"With my brother in Youzhou, I can rest assured and handle state affairs in the palace."
"Brother Emperor, please rest assured. I will never allow the enemy to even enter the Great Qi Kingdom."
"Whether now or in the future, my brother will always trust you."
"Thank you for your trust, my dear brother. I will never let you down."
"Take Rui'er with you when you leave tomorrow and teach him how to behave and do things for me."
"Yes."
