royal husband

With Li Jin's consent, Ying Yuan couldn't wait to announce his marriage to Li Jin in front of all the courtiers in the early morning of the second day after the enthronement ceremony.

A stone stirred up a thousand waves.

No one expected that Yingyuan would give them a big move the day after he took the throne.

In an instant.

The courtiers, including Shen Chaoyan, were dumbfounded and couldn't believe what they heard.

They are both men, and one is the emperor and the other is the king of Dingbei, who are destined to be hostile in terms of status, but they got the fact that they are going to get married today / today / from Ying Yuan's mouth.

"Your Majesty, this matter must not be allowed. You and King Dingbei are men, how can you challenge the laws of Daxia? Isn't this breaking the law knowingly?"

It was Li Huaian, the speech officer, who spoke.

He directly moved out of Da Xia's laws to stop Ying Yuan.

Another famous speaker, Zhang Yan, also cupped his hands. "Your Majesty, Mr. Li is right. Please think twice, Your Majesty."

With the two officials taking the lead, other courtiers also began to speak out against it.

Shen Chaoyan, on the other hand, seemed to feel that Yingyuan had another move, and did not join in the countermeasure against the opposition, but waited for Yingyuan's next move.

as predicted.

Hearing the objections from the courtiers, Ying Yuan smiled lightly, and then asked the eunuch next to him to take out the imperial decree, and read it out again in front of all the courtiers, "Fengtian Chengyun Emperor, the edict says..."

"This... this decree..."

Li Huaian and Zhang Yan were instantly dumbfounded.

They never imagined that Yingyuan's plan to marry Li Jin was actually facilitated by the late emperor Ying Zhengjing, and even left behind the imperial decree. Now, if they disobeyed the decree, it would be tantamount to disobeying the late emperor's imperial decree.

But they couldn't agree to the last sentence of the imperial decree.

In an instant.

The courtiers were in a dilemma.

If this imperial decree came from Ying Yuan who had just ascended the throne, the courtiers would definitely oppose it vigorously, and the officials were also ready to die to show their ambitions, but the imperial decree was for Ying Zhengjing.

What the hell are the two of them thinking?

Shen Chaoyan narrowed his eyes slightly, and looked at Ying Yuan sitting on the dragon chair calmly.

At the end of the imperial decree, it is required that both parties should not have anyone other than the other party. In other words, it is almost like cutting off children and grandchildren. Shen Chaoyan does not believe that Ying Yuan will do such a thing that harms others and does not benefit himself. There must be something tricky in it.

Ying Yuan looked around at the courtiers, "Since all your lovers have no objections, I will announce now that tomorrow I will formally marry Li Jin, the king of Dingbei, to comfort the late emperor's spirit in heaven."

Li Huaian bit his lower lip and asked one after another, "Your Majesty, this matter needs to be discussed in a long-term manner. Besides, if King Dingbei marries you, what is the identity of King Dingbei? King Dingbei is a man, and it is impossible for him to do this for you." Finally, besides, the frontier still needs King Dingbei to sit in town, if you marry the emperor, King Dingbei will stay in the capital, so what will happen to the people in the frontier?"

Ying Yuan smiled, "If you can't be a queen, then be your husband. When I get married with King Dingbei, King Dingbei Li Jin will be my imperial husband."

Li Huaian was dumbfounded.

Before he could speak, Yingyuan continued, "As for the frontier issue you just mentioned, Aiqing, this is what I want to talk about. Now we all know that the three vassal kings guarding the frontier, King Jingnan and King Pingxi, have passed away, and only the new one is left. The successor, Dingbei Wang Lijin, has no skills at all."

That's right, there are three places in Daxia that need to be heavily guarded to prevent foreign invasions, but now there is only one new successor Li Jin left in the San Francisco King, it is impossible to take care of both.

Seeing the concerned expressions of many courtiers below, Ying Yuan said meaningfully, "You don't need to worry too much, the late emperor has already prepared for it, and has already transported the 'fire/powder' to the frontier, waiting for the foreigners to suppress it." Can't live."

Is that fire/powder really feasible?

The courtiers knew about fire/powder, but the power of fire/powder was only demonstrated in Zhuzhou, so most courtiers were still skeptical about fire/powder.

Just as the courtiers were still hesitating, an eunuch hurried in with a letter in his hand, and replied, "Your Majesty, there is an urgent letter from eight hundred miles away."

Ying Yuan's pupils shrank, "Submit it quickly."

"Yes."

The eunuch quickly handed the letter in his hand to the eunuch next to him, asking him to pass the letter up to Ying Yuan.

Yingyuan picked up the letter and opened it directly. After carefully checking the content written on it, he laughed and said, "Hahahaha... I knew it would be successful..."

"Your Majesty...the letter says..."

"It's a letter from the frontier, saying that many foreigners are taking the opportunity to attack the frontier, but they were all resolved by the gunpowder sent by the former emperor."

Did they hear correctly?Is that fire/powder really so powerful?

The courtiers were stunned by what Li Jin said.

Ying Yuan raised the corners of his lips, and said with a half-smile, "Now, what doubts do you have?"

Zhang Yan still wanted to dispel Yingyuan's thoughts and said, "Your Majesty, since fire/powder is so powerful, I naturally have no objection to King Dingbei's decision to stay in the capital, but you must know that there are three types of unfilial piety. With King Dingbei..."

After Yingyuan listened, his eyes fell on Zhang Yan, "Zhang Aiqing, have you forgotten that the marriage between me and King Dingbei was the intention of the late emperor. Do you want me to disobey the late emperor's words? Be an unfilial person?"

After buckling such a big hat, Zhang Yan immediately cupped his hands and said, "I dare not."

"Since you don't dare, then this matter is settled, and you will retreat."

After Yingyuan finished speaking, he walked out of the hall.

"Congratulations to the emperor."

Up to now, the courtiers had no choice but to send Ying Yuan away respectfully with a bitter face.

On the way back, a courtier who had a good relationship with Shen Chaoyan said, "Shen Youxiang, why didn't you help and talk about it just now? Isn't the emperor doing this... Isn't it..."

After all, Yingyuan is the emperor, and he is not a speech officer. The minister didn't dare to speak out the words of the future, so he had to stop in the middle of his speech.

Shen Chaoyan said with a wry smile, "As for the situation just now, I can't persuade you either."

"That's right, even Master Li and Master Zhang can't persuade us, let alone us."

The courtier who spoke sighed helplessly.

God knows.

This morning, he had originally agreed with several courtiers that he would take the opportunity to mention the draft so that their daughters could also be brought into the palace. You must know that compared with other princes, Yingyuan's harem does not have a single concubine. If they enter the palace and become a concubine, maybe their daughter can reach the sky in one step.

No matter what.

Li Jin's unexpected words just now blocked what they wanted to say about the draft, how could he be reconciled to this.

Shen Chaoyan patted the courtier's shoulder, "Master Wu, this is the end of the matter, let's think about it."

"Ah."

The courtier nodded sullenly and said goodbye to Shen Chaoyan.

I don't know.

Shen Chaoyan didn't intend to comfort him at all, but mocked him for being overwhelmed.

That Yingyuan is obviously a pig and a tiger, otherwise how could he defeat so many brothers and be made the new emperor by Ying Zhengjing, who has always disliked him the most, his method must not be simple.

The more Shen Chaoyan thought about it, the more regretful he felt.

He was careless at the beginning, otherwise Ying Yuan would never have made it to Zhuzhou alive at that time.

Dingbei Palace.

The old lady next to Wei Rong turned pale in shock and ran to the Buddhist hall where Wei Rong always stayed, and shouted in a panic, "Mrs. Tai, it's not good, it's not good."

This old nanny is Wei Rong's confidant just like the old nanny who was dealt with by Li Jin back then, but this old nanny had to know how to restrain herself so that she was not eliminated by Li Jin at that time.

"what happened?"

Wei Rong sat calmly on the chair, chanting scriptures non-stop.

"It's the little prince's business. Tomorrow...tomorrow the little prince will marry the emperor."

Those who served Wei Rong's side would call Li Jin the little prince, so as to distinguish him from the deceased prince.

Wei Rong raised her eyebrows and said, "Your Majesty?"

have to say.

Hearing the word "Emperor", Wei Rong was also surprised.

They are two people who can't fight each other, and they are both men, how could they get married?And the ministers of the imperial court don't object?

"It's the imperial decree of the first emperor, and the imperial decree also said..."

The old mother took advantage of the situation and told Wei Rong exactly what she had just inquired about.

Wei Rong was silent.

The old mother looked at Wei Rong tremblingly, and whispered, "Madam?"

"Where did you get the news from?"

Wei Rong didn't scold Li Jin immediately, but instead asked the old lady where the news came from.

She was stupid to be taken away by Wei Shiwan in the past, but now that she has experienced so much, Wei Rong will not trust the people around her numbly, no, is it because of Wei Shiwan that her legs became like this not long ago?

Moreover.

Wei Rong did what she said.

Since moving to the Buddhist hall, she has never paid attention to Li Jin's affairs, let alone sent anyone to follow Li Jin and inquire about Li Jin's news. Therefore, this old nun came in today/today/to talk to her about these things. It is worth pondering.

"It's... the news from Mrs. Tai's mother's house."

The old lady didn't expect Wei Rong to ask about the source of the news, and her back stiffened suddenly.

"Heh, my mother's family?" Wei Rong sneered with disdain, "Since Wei Shiwan died, haven't I been cut off from there? Where is there any family? It's you, the old man should have said that you are not allowed in my yard." People are in contact with people from the Wei Mansion, why can you still follow and receive news from the Wei Mansion?"

The old mother panicked, "Old... old lady... this... this is..."

"Enough." Wei Rong interrupted, "Because you have served the old man for so many years, there is no credit but hard work, and the old body will give you money to leave."

"Old lady, don't want it. By the way, don't you care about the little prince's affairs? If the little prince really married the emperor, it would be an unprecedented event."

Seeing that Wei Rong wanted to drive her away, the old mother quickly talked about Li Jin and Ying Yuan, so that Wei Rong would dispel the idea of ​​driving her away.

"That's his business, the old man will not interfere."

"Old lady, if you do this, the Dingbei Palace will be unprecedented."

"Come here, drive her out of Dingbei Palace."

Wei Rong didn't bother to continue talking with the old mama, so she let the old mama go out.

"Yes, Madam."

The servant got the order and immediately took the old mother out forcefully.
