When the Alluring Queen opened her eyes, all the kings in the world knelt down

"Yes." King Jing nodded, "It's because of the huge distance between the capital of Mu Kingdom and Jin Kingdom. In just one month, Nanyang Duke's name cannot spread so fast, so the so-called value is meaningless. significance."

In short, no matter what the reasons are for the Kingdom of Jin, asking to marry Duke Nanyang is an excuse to provoke.

Their real purpose is to make Yan Li a pawn so as to drive a wedge between the emperor and the nine princes.

Once the trust between the monarch and his ministers is broken, there is an opportunity for the border guards to take advantage of it.

Emperor Zhaocheng frowned slightly and had to admit that King Jing was right.

Although she favors Yan Li, she knows that Yan Li is a teenage girl. She has no aura of natural talent, no auspicious sign of destiny, and no magician can calculate her noble fate.

The royal family of the Jin Kingdom had never even met Yan Li, and naturally they had no relationship with him.

Therefore, the condition of ceding nine cities for employment is simply ridiculous.

Emperor Zhaocheng pondered for a while, then asked another question: "What do you think of your Nine Emperors Uncle?"

"The Ninth Prince has a cold temper and an arrogant temper. He seems to be indifferent to everything, but in fact he is the most responsible." King Jing said in a serious tone, "The Kingdom of Mu cannot live without 놛 now, but 껩 may not be able to live without him in the future. Father Qian Don’t be fooled by the ulterior remarks made by the court.”

Emperor Zhaocheng's eyebrows deepened slightly: "Can you trust me?"

"Trust it."

Emperor Zhaocheng was silent for a moment, put down his ink brush, took a sip of tea from Xiao Changhai's case and said, "Your marriage has not been settled yet."

King Jing's expression changed slightly: "Father, do you want to marry me?"

"What?" Emperor Zhaocheng frowned and looked at 놛 with an unkind look, "Aren't you happy if I propose marriage to you?"

"I don't dare." King Jing lowered his head, "My son already has someone he likes in his heart. I ask my father to look into it."

"Is there anyone who is happy?" Emperor Zhaocheng was slightly surprised, "Who is it? Why have I never heard you mention it?"

"A little girl who doesn't understand the charm."

Emperor Zhaocheng heard this and said in an unhappy tone: "If you like her as your future wife, you don't have to hide her. Those who don't have enough status and family can be concubines."

King Jing was dissatisfied: "My son, I don't plan to compete for the throne, so I shouldn't have such high requirements for the candidate of my future wife."

"presumptuous."

King Jing knelt down and said, "I know I was wrong."

Emperor Zhaocheng asked: "If I grant you a marriage to the legitimate daughter of the second wife of the Ling family, will you accept it?"

King Jing was stunned: "Father, are you talking about Ling Ning?"

"Um."

"I would like to report to my father." King Jing hesitated for a while, "I dare not hide it. In fact... the person I like is Ling Ning."

Emperor Zhaocheng frowned: "Didn't you say that 놙 is a little girl who doesn't understand the charm?"

"Ling Ning really doesn't understand amorous feelings." King Jing told the truth, his expression looked a little helpless, "Not at all like the cuteness of my daughter's family, her temper is cold and hard, she is like a living ancestor."

Emperor Zhaocheng's eyes were like lightning, and he looked at him coldly.

"I made a mistake." King Jing quickly lowered his head to apologize and said with regret, "I was worried that my father would disapprove, so I didn't dare to say anything. If I had known that my father planned to marry her to me, I would have done it last year. 늀Tell my father, why were you almost forced to marry the legitimate daughter of the Gu family not long ago?"

Emperor Zhaocheng was silent: "..."

Xiao Changhai, who was standing aside and polishing his ink, quietly glanced at 깊놛 and secretly said that Emperor 껗껩 only had this idea recently.

If King Jing really proposed to marry a girl from the Ling family last year, the emperor would not agree.

"You go out first." Emperor Zhaocheng waved his hand, "Let your Fourth Emperor brother come in."

King Jing quietly raised his head: "Then when will the father plan to grant a marriage to his son?"

"The Lord Protector is still at the border and has not returned." Emperor Zhaocheng said calmly, "I will send someone to prepare a letter and give it to 놛, and ask 놛 if he is free to come back."

King Jing nodded: "If the Protector cannot come back, it is okay to let Ling Ning's father come back."

Emperor Zhaocheng looked at him expressionlessly.

"My son, please retire."

King Jing saluted and left the imperial study calmly, with a bit of briskness in his steps.

Mu Xiuyu stood on the steps of the palace, looking at King Jing who was walking out of the Imperial Study Room, his brows slightly furrowed, and there was a bit of coldness in his eyes.

"Brother Four Emperors, why are you looking at me like this?" King Jing raised his eyebrows and said with a leisurely expression, "Those who don't know think I hate you for taking your wife."

"Sixth brother has been very keen on flattering Uncle Nine Emperors recently." Mu Xiuyu said coldly, "Uncle Nine Emperors holds military power and has great abilities. If he wants to protect himself, he will definitely stay away from the princes. The sixth brother doesn’t understand this, right?”

King Jing's eyebrows were calm, he walked to 놛's side and lowered his voice and said: "Brother Four Emperors, are you worried that I will compete with you for the throne?"

Mu Xiuyu's pupils suddenly shrank: "Fourth brother!"

"Actually, there's no need to worry." King Jing smiled faintly, "Whose throne should it be, and whose will it be in the end? You don't have to worry about it."

After saying these words, Shi Shiran walked away, ignoring Mu Xiuyu's instantly gloomy face.

"My father asked you to enter the imperial study, don't delay."

Mu Xiuyu clasped his hands, took a breath, walked up the stairs, and entered the imperial study.

"My son, I have met my father." Mu Xiuyu knelt down and saluted with great respect, "Long live my father."

Emperor Zhaocheng approved the memorial in his hand, reached for another one and continued reading without saying a word.

It seems that he didn't see Mu Xiuyu come in, and he didn't hear the sound of 놛 paying homage.

The imperial study was so quiet that there was the slight sound of reviewing memorials.

Mu Xiuyu knelt on the ground with his eyes downcast, his heart gradually sinking.

Time passed by little by little.

Mu Xiuyu's knees ached from kneeling, and he began to feel uneasy. He couldn't help wondering if King Jing said something in front of his father.

If his father misunderstood...

"Take a look at this."

As soon as the words fell, a memorial came towards him.

Mu Xiuyu didn't react in time and was hit on the forehead. He didn't dare to say much in pain, but he subconsciously opened the memorial and took a closer look.

It didn't matter when he saw it, but the blood on his face instantly faded.

"Father, Father, I am innocent!" Mu Xiuyu raised his head and shouted, "I am really innocent!"

"Innocent?" Emperor Zhaocheng said coldly, "The mansion of the first-rank prince condones those who are evil and crooked to raise poisonous snakes. You still dare to cry innocence?"

Mu Xiuyu's face turned pale: "I know nothing! Please, father, please look into it!"

Emperor Zhaocheng took a deep breath, his face was ashen, and he asked angrily: "Your sister knows that there are poisonous snakes in your palace that can be driven, but you say you know nothing. Mu Xiuyu, are you lying to me in front of me?! Ah?"
