Chapter 38 Rejecting the engagement

At the palace banquet.

Xiao Zhanping suddenly said, "Wan'er is about sixteen this year."

Bai Mowan heard the emperor call him and reluctantly turned her gaze away from Xiao Jinxing.

She quickly got up and saluted, "Go back to the emperor, my daughter is just sixteen this year."

"Can you be married?" Xiao Zhanping asked, heading straight to the topic of tonight.

The queen Yu Qingyuan, who was sitting next to Xiao Zhanping, had obviously changed her face.

I had long heard that the emperor wanted to marry Bai Wenwu's legitimate daughter to the King of Chu. If this marriage was done, it would be a threat to her and the prince.

Concubine Shu, sitting on the other side, was in a completely different mood. She had long known that today's palace banquet was mainly to point out her son's marriage. Once they attracted Bai Wenwu's family, his son's career ascending the throne would be half successful!

What's more, his son and Bai Mowan have a good relationship. It means marriage, but it is actually just a matter of one sentence. After all, both parties are both willing. Even if the queen is quite verbal, it is impossible to break up a couple.

When Zhao Mengyu thought of this, the joy in her heart couldn't help but reveal it.

Ye Qichi was also looking at everyone here quietly, and from time to time he looked at Xiao Jinxing.

Xiao Jinxing also knew that the woman he loved the most was going to be betrothed to someone else tonight, and now he was in a extreme mood!

"My daughter has not been married yet." Bai Mowan replied respectfully.

"I wonder if Wan'er likes my second prince?" Xiao Zhanping smiled heartily.

I can't understand it anymore.

Bai Mowan lowered her head, and at that moment she looked up slightly at Xiao Jinshen.

When she thought of his cruelty, she wanted to kill him.

However, she could only pretend to be herself and pretend to still love him.

Xiao Jinshen's eyes were naturally also looking at Bai Mowan, full of affection.

Not to mention how excited Bai Mowan made him, after all, from the beginning, he had purpose from getting close to Bai Mowan. To be honest, he was just using it and would not have too many feelings! But after real contact, he found that this woman was indeed smarter and wiser than ordinary women, so he had more emotions.

Now Xiao Jinshen is confident and waits for Bai Mowan to agree.

Bai Mowan withdrew her gaze and said respectfully, "The prince is a dragon and a phoenix among people, so the ministers are naturally happy."

As soon as the words come out.

Ye Qichi felt Xiao Jinxing's depression beside him. His fists were clenched at this moment, probably because he was patient and also because he was accepting it.

Xiao Zhanping nodded with satisfaction, just as he was about to announce the decree.

Bai Mowan said, "Your Majesty, but my daughter has something to ask for."

Xiao Zhanping was in a very good mood. He said gently, "What's the matter?"

"Now the border is in turmoil and wars are constantly going on. My dad and my elder brother cannot go home once a year or a half. However, my elder brother is twenty-two years old this year, but he has not been able to marry because he is not at home for many years. The Bai family has only one descendant, and the Bai family's incense needs to be extended. My dad was also injured repeatedly because of the war, and his health is not as good as before. So my daughter dared to ask me to accompany my daughter to stay at the border instead of my elder brother. After my elder brother gets married and has children, my daughter will retire again."

The words were so powerful and grand that everyone was shocked, except Ye Qichi.

Xiao Jinshen's face changed suddenly.

He had made it clear to Bai Mowan in private that his father would point them to marriage, and Bai Mowan agreed.

Now he actually regrets it in public?!

Xiao Jinxing was also a little surprised.

He couldn't help but look at Bai Mowan and see the perseverance in her eyes.

Xiao Zhanping's face became dark and he was refuted, so he felt uncomfortable naturally.

Bai Wenwu hurried forward and knelt down and said, "The old mother in Wei'er's family threatened Wei'er with her life, so that Wei'er must let the dog son stay and marry and have children. Wei'er had to follow her. But in recent years, Wei'er has been accustomed to the dog son's side, and he may be unacceptable to him leaving Wei'er. However, Wan'er has learned military tactics from Wei'er since childhood, and he will also dance with swords and guns. Wei'er takes her by her side to make up for it. More importantly, Wei'er also wants to let Wan'er go to the battlefield to exercise. Regardless of children, the generals and families should all be loyal to the emperor and the country! Wei'er also hopes that after Wei'er is old, he can cultivate a general and defend his country!"

Such loyalty and service to the country made Xiao Zhanping unable to find any words to refute, and passing on the family line was a family matter, so he had no reason to refuse.

He glanced at Xiao Jinshen.

Xiao Jinshen pursed his lips tightly and did not dare to speak.

Even in my heart, it is extremely cruel.

"General Bai's loyalty is a testament to the sun and the moon." Yu Qingyuan spoke.

She wished Bai Mowan would not marry the King of Chu, and she felt so happy at this moment.

Zhao Mengyu wanted to fight him, but there was no door.

"Because General Bai has been fighting for many years and has a weak descendant, it is not unreasonable for your mother to let Mo Yi stay and pass on the family line." Yu Qingyuan kept speaking to Bai Wenwu, "It was Wan'er who volunteered to go to the battlefield, which made me a little admired. I am also looking forward to the fact that a female general in the Great Xuan Kingdom can be produced!"

"My daughter thanks the Queen for her appreciation, and she will live up to the expectations of the people to protect the peace of the country!"

Yu Qingyuan nodded with relief, and she turned to the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, I think that in front of the country, the love between children can be slow. For Shen'er and Wan'er, let's choose another day."

As far as the queen is concerned, it is impossible for the emperor to completely ignore the queen's face, not to mention that Bai Wenwu's reasons are reasonable, so he can only follow the steps.

Xiao Zhanping cleared his throat and said, "Since my dear is willing to cultivate national talents, I will naturally support you with all my strength."

"Thank you for your compassion for me!" Bai Wenwu hurriedly kowtowed and bowed.

I couldn't breathe a sigh of relief at that moment.

Finally, without offending anyone, she helped her daughter temporarily refuse the marriage.

The Bai family returned to the banquet.

The atmosphere of the palace banquet was somewhat depressing.

It's about to end.

Xiao Zhanping said, "I almost forgot that Xing'er was assassinated outside the palace last time. Fortunately, Ye Qichi saved Xing'er regardless of his life. I said I would like to reward him. Ye Qichi, tell me, what do you want?"

Ye Qichi's heart trembled.

She was clearly a transparent person, but suddenly became the protagonist at this moment.

Everyone's eyes were all on her.

The queen and Concubine Shu, who had never even looked at her, had a rare look at her at this moment.

At first glance, Ye Qichi was shocked for a second by the beautiful Ye Qichi.

Ye Qichi quickly stood up from his seat and saluted, "Father, I am the wife of King Chen. It is my duty to sacrifice my life to save my husband. I don't need any reward. I just want King Chen to be safe and safe. I am satisfied if I can serve King Chen forever."
