Chapter 288 Marriage Grant

In order to prevent any further complications, within a few days, Hao Nanyue instigated Hao Xuanzhou to arrange an appointment with Chi Zhantian and Chi Tianjiao for an audience.

Chi Tianjiao was quite happy when he received the emperor's summons. He could not think of any reason why the royal family would reject him and thought that good things were about to happen.

Hao Nanyue is the only woman that has attracted his heart in all these years, and only she is worthy of him.

We are talking about private matters today, so the meeting place is in Haoxuanzhou’s bedroom.

Seeing Chi Zhantian and the other two coming, Hao Xuanzhou, feeling guilty, immediately greeted them enthusiastically: "Zhantian, Xiaojiao, you are here, please take a seat quickly."

Seeing Hao Xuanzhou being so enthusiastic, Chi Tianjiao felt more confident and a smile appeared unconsciously on the corner of his mouth.

However, Chi Zhantian's brows frowned slightly. Considering his relationship with Hao Xuanzhou, he would not be so polite.

After taking his seat, Hao Xuanzhou hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "The main reason I called you here is because of the rumors in the market."

"Your Majesty, that is not a rumor. The third princess and I are in love with each other. Please grant our wish." As soon as Haoxuanzhou started talking, Chi Tianjiao couldn't wait to express his feelings.

Hao Xuanzhou felt ashamed after hearing this, this kid from the Chi family was indeed overconfident as Yue'er said. You did have intentions, but Yue'er was ruthless.

Hao Xuanzhou coughed dryly and got straight to the point: "Whether you meant it or not, the rumors in the market have already spread to the palace. You know my uncles Zhan Tian well. Now they are exaggerating and have even reported it to our ancestors."

"I will not hide anything from you and Zhan Tian. Although the rumors are absurd, they are not completely unreasonable. The concerns of the royal family are not without basis."

"Your Majesty, the rumors are pure nonsense. Even if I am promoted to the realm of God in the future, I will obey your orders and will not dare to disobey." Chi Tianjiao was anxious and stood up hurriedly. From what he heard, the situation was not good.

Chi Zhantian pulled him to sit down and said calmly, "Listen to your majesty."

Faced with Chi Zhantian's majesty, Chi Tianjiao dared not disobey and could only sit down unwillingly.

"Well, I admire geniuses very much, but, alas!" Hao Xuanzhou sighed, what can he do when his daughter is not interested.

"After my mediation, they compromised. If Tianjiao insists on marrying Yue'er, Tianjiao must promise that he will not enter the court in the future, let alone interfere in military affairs."

When these words came out, Chi Tianjiao's pupils trembled greatly. Why did he practice hard? Wasn't it just to be able to hold a high position and become famous all over the world one day?

There are not many holy places in the world, but there are definitely many. Most of those who can become famous in the world are important officials with outstanding military achievements.

Power and fame are closely related. It is difficult for a lone warrior to become famous in the world unless he reaches the realm of god.

At this moment, Chi Tianjiao was really conflicted. Could Hao Nanyue really compare to fame and fortune?

It didn't take long for Chi Tianjiao to think about it. In fact, he already had the answer in his heart. He, Chi Tianjiao, was destined to be a dazzling existence. Leaving a name in history was his pursuit. How could he give up for a woman?

"Is there no room for mediation?" Chi Tianjiao still wanted to make a final struggle.

Hao Xuanzhou sighed: "This is the result of our hard work."

Indeed, if he hadn't fought for it, Yue'er wouldn't even give him the chance to choose.

Chi Tianjiao pretended to be in deep thought, and after a while he said painfully: "Then I can only disappoint the princess' kindness. A man should take it as his responsibility to make achievements and establish a career."

Hao Xuanzhou had anticipated this. In Lingwu Continent, men put their careers first. How could they degenerate themselves for love? Therefore, even Hao Xuanzhou did not think there was anything wrong with it.

Hao Nanyue was hiding at the back of the hall. When he heard Chi Tianjiao's answer, he showed an expression that said "as expected".

Then she muttered to herself: "Men are really the same. Compared to careers, women always come second. When I look for a man, he must put me first."

“Don’t worry, nephew. Although you have no chance to be with Yue’er, the Queen has already found a matchmaker for you.” Seeing Chi Tianjiao’s depressed look, Hao Xuanzhou said loudly.

"She is the only daughter of the Minister of Rites, in her twenties, well-educated, virtuous and respectful. She is truly a perfect match. The Queen specifically requested her for you."

The Wang family of the Minister of Rites is the leader of the civil service group. If the Chi family can marry into the Wang family, the development of the Chi family will surely be smooth sailing.

The biggest flaw of the Chi family is that their roots are too shallow and their background is insufficient. The Wang family has been aristocracy since the founding of the Haochen Kingdom, and their background is so strong that it can just make up for the shortcomings of the Chi family.

The marriage between the two families is a union of civil officials and military generals. With the Wang family as his backing, Chi Tianjiao's future is limitless.

In addition, Minister Wang’s only daughter is also a famous beauty in the imperial capital. Although her talent for cultivation is average, a woman only needs to be both talented and beautiful, and cultivation is not important.

Many princes and nobles in the capital coveted the only daughter of the Wang family. The Wang family was also waiting for a good price and had not made a decision, which was delayed until she was in her twenties.

Now that the Queen was acting as a matchmaker, and Chi Tianjiao’s own talent was added, the Wang family finally agreed.

“I…” Chi Tianjiao subconsciously wanted to refuse. He, Chi Tianjiao, did not need to rely on a woman to get to the top.

However, before he could finish his words, Chi Zhantian interrupted him, stood up and saluted, saying, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness. The Chi family is grateful."

The Empress Dowager personally acted as the matchmaker, and His Majesty has spoken with all his might. This is an arranged marriage. How can I refuse an arranged marriage by the royal family? A subject must do his duty.

Moreover, there may be political factors involved in this arranged marriage. The relationship between civil officials and military generals is now rigid, and this arranged marriage may be a medium to ease the relationship between them.

Chi Zhantian left with the dejected Chi Tianjiao. As soon as they left, Hao Nanyue came out from behind and hugged Hao Xuanzhou's arm excitedly: "Thank you, father."

Hao Xuanzhou couldn't do anything with her, so he nodded helplessly: "You, I really don't know what kind of man you are looking for."

"Wouldn't it be good for my daughter to never get married and stay with my father, the emperor, and my mother, the empress?" Hao Nanyue said naively.

Hao Xuanzhou pushed Hao Nanyue's hand away without leaving a trace, fearing that she would plot against him again.

"I don't mind, but I'm afraid it will be difficult for your mother to pass the test. You are approaching Double Tenth, and your mother may directly propose to you, and you won't be able to refuse."

"You are in the royal family and have no choice. Your mother is in charge of your marriage. You'd better make plans early and find someone you like, otherwise..."

Hao Xuanzhou didn't finish his words, but Hao Nanyue understood that with her appearance and qualifications, she was an important bargaining chip for the royal family, and it would be difficult for her to decide her marriage.

Hao Nanyue's good mood faded, but the hurdle in front of her was finally passed. In the future, she would just have to take one step at a time and deal with the situation as it came.

Returning to her own bedroom, Hao Nanyue happily informed her maid of the news. While eating some fruit, she said vaguely, "Now that annoying guy can't come to bother me anymore, right?"

However, just as she finished her words, she heard a maid come to report: "Princess, the eldest son of the Marquis of Changsheng Mansion is here to see you!"

Hao Nanyue was stunned, the fruit in his hand fell to the ground, and he was so shocked that he couldn't speak.
