The Almighty Princess just wants to farm

"My father hasn't come back yet. Isn't it too early to talk about this matter now?"

Dongfang Li raised her eyebrows lightly and looked at Changsun Qinfeng in confusion.

"Li'er..."

Changsun Qinfeng stopped talking.

"Jinkou Yuyan, it turns out that the king wants to settle the marriage before father comes back."

Dongfang Li sneered, saying that accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger. Even though his father guarded the border for Dadu for more than ten years, he could not escape the various suspicions and suspicions of the emperor's family.

"Uncle, there is no need to worry about Li'er. If an imperial edict can reassure the king, then Li'er will be waiting for the edict in the palace."

Dongfang Li accepted it so calmly, which made Changsun Qinfeng's historical data uneasy.

After a while, Changsun Qinfeng patted Dongfang Li's thin shoulder happily.

"Li'er, come visit your aunt more often. You and Ruixue are similar in age, and your aunt has always treated you as her own child."

Looking at Changsun Qinfeng who turned to leave, Dongfang Li knew that from this moment on, no matter what happened in the future, the Duke's Mansion would be her right-hand man.

"Li'er... I've made you feel wronged."

"Aunt, I am the eldest daughter of the family. Since I have enjoyed the honor brought to me by the family, I naturally have to accept the responsibilities of being a child. Besides, the imperial edict has not been issued yet, right?"

Dongfang Li gently wiped the corners of the Duke's wife's eyes.

"elder sister……"

Dongfang Jiao's choking voice came from behind.

"Don't worry, Jiaojiao, there are only two sisters, you and me, in our house. The king will not grant marriage at the same time. When father comes back this time, I will also ask him to choose a suitable family for you and settle the marriage as soon as possible. , and save others from worrying about it.”

……

In the courtyard of the General's Mansion, Dongfang Li dismissed the people around him and was about to take a rest. Suddenly, the wind chime by the window automatically moved without making any sound.

"It is not the behavior of a gentleman to enter a purdah at night."

Dongfang Li glanced at the beams lightly.

"Why don't you show up yet? Your Excellency has been watching my room for half an hour. Do you have any advice?"

Dongfang Li walked to the table and waved the tea cup out. A strong wind passed by and the cup was directly embedded in the beam.

"The rumors are indeed lies. With the young lady's skills, I may not even be able to defeat you."

Following a cheerful voice, a handsome and sunny young man appeared in front of Dongfang Li.

"Who is your Excellency?"

"I'm looking for the guards of Prince Xiaxu's palace in Xunyang. It's inconvenient to show up because of the crowd just now. Please forgive me, girl."

Xunyang clasped his hands into fists and saluted Dongfang Li.

"Prince Xu's Mansion? What's your purpose?"

The moment she saw Xunyang, Dongfang Li had a bold guess in her heart, but this guess still needed someone to confirm it for her.

"Your Majesty, please ask the young lady to come over."

"Oh?"

"But the prince also said that if Miss Dongfang doesn't mind, you can also go to He Yuexuan at noon tomorrow."

Xunyang conveyed the words and watched Dongfang Li's reaction quietly.

"Go out and wait."

Dongfang Li frowned slightly, and the light in her eyes was a little complicated.

Prince Xu's Mansion

Dongfang Li looked at the huge plaque above his head and was slightly stunned.

"Miss Dongfang, the prince is still waiting..."

Xunyang reminded in a low voice.

"Let's go."

The journey was smooth and smooth until the Linfeng Pavilion of Prince Xu's Mansion.

"Girl please..."

Xunyang knocked on the door, opened the door after hearing the response from inside, and signaled Dongfang Li to enter. He stood outside the door, and then closed the door thoughtfully.

Dongfang Li walked in. There was only a table and two chairs in the spacious room, and the few candlelights did not sway at all due to her movements.

"The peony demon in front of the court is unqualified, and the pond is pure and unloving. Only the peony is the true national color, and it moves the capital when the flowers are blooming."

Nangong Xu raised his head and looked at Dongfang Li opposite.

"Oriental girls are always unexpected. This skill of hairpin and small regular script cannot be mastered in ten or eight years."

"Not one-tenth as good as the prince."

Dongfang Li looked at the ink pen hanging behind the desk. On the black and gold scroll, the word "quiet" jumped out on the paper. It was obviously a vigorous and powerful word, but Dongfang Li saw the helplessness and forbearance in the word. I couldn't help but feel a glimmer of clarity.

"Sit down, Miss Dongfang must have guessed the reason why I want to see you."

Nangong Xu looked at Dongfang Li's indifferent expression, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

"It seems to be true...but I can't figure it out..."

Dongfang Li looked at the tea handed over by Nangong Xu and rubbed the rim of the cup with her fingertips.

"Two days ago, I received news that Daru invaded the southwest. General Dongfang won two battles in succession, and Daru withdrew his troops."

After Nangong Xu finished speaking, the room fell silent.

After a while, Dongfang Li looked out the window and spoke slowly.

"My father was devoted to the safety of Dadu and the stability of the people's lives, but he forgot that the most ruthless emperor's family..."

When Dongfang Li returned to the General's Mansion, it was already early morning.

Lying on the bed, Dongfang Li's ears were still echoing with Nangong Xu's voice.

"There is news from the palace that the king intends to arrange a marriage for the eldest daughter of the general's palace. If nothing unexpected happens, he will marry Prince Yu Xu, Nangong Xu."

"The original decree conferring marriage is expected to be delayed for a few more days, but today you won the oiran of the Peony Club, and the decree should be sent to the general's palace tomorrow."

"I wonder what the prince thinks of this?"

"Prince Xu's Mansion is not just for me."

"...I will cause trouble to the prince from now on."

……

The next morning.

"Miss, ma'am..."

Xia Yu ran back in a hurry.

"What happened?"

"Miss, Eunuch Li is waiting in the front hall with the imperial edict."

"Understood, let's go."

Dongfang Li stood up, tidied himself up, and walked towards the front hall with Chunlu, Xia Yu, Qiulian and Dongshuang.

"According to Heaven, the king has issued an edict saying that Dongfang Li, the eldest daughter of the general's palace, is twenty years old. She is dignified in appearance, beautiful and intelligent. Therefore, we have decreed to marry the royal concubine of Nangong Xu, King of Xu. We will choose an auspicious day to get married. I appreciate this!"

"Dongfang Li accepts the decree, long live the king."

"Long live the King."

Everyone accepted the edict and thanked them. Dongfang Li accepted the edict, and Qiulian smiled and handed over a bag of silver.

"Eunuch Li, you have worked hard all the way."

"Thank you Miss Dongfang for the reward. The family is very happy. General Dongfang will return to the capital at the end of the year. Now that Miss Dongfang has been granted a marriage by the king, it can be seen that the king values ​​the general's palace."

"Yes, I have to thank the king for his appreciation, so that the general's office can have the opportunity to serve Dadu."

The two of them exchanged pleasantries for a long time.

"Your Majesty is still waiting for the Ze family to return to answer the decree, so he won't stay any longer."

Eunuch Li bowed his body and turned to leave.

"Father-in-law, walk slowly."

After sending away the group of people who conveyed the edict, Dongfang Li looked at the imperial edict in his hand.

"What should come will always come..."

"Miss, this...Prince Xu is really not a good match!"

Aunt Liu was confused from beginning to end. This imperial edict came so suddenly.

"The imperial edict has been issued. If you don't accept it, you will be disobeying the edict. The General's Office cannot bear the crime of disobeying the edict."
