Chapter 481: This minister is here to ask the emperor for a marriage

Duke Yu proudly raised his head and bowed his hands in salute, saying, "My little girl is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. Since Your Majesty already knows about it, I don't think you need to elaborate further. Please do it for Your Majesty."

"I understand." The emperor put down the tea cup, "But King Chen has a marriage contract for a long time. Since the daughter of Duke Yu wants to marry King Chen, it is not impossible. How about becoming a concubine?"

Although the concubine is noble, there is a huge gap between her and the main wife.

Duke Yu Guo was stunned and sighed with a complicated expression for a moment.

"Your Majesty, our family has been loyal for generations. We are also the legitimate daughters of the Duke of the country. How can we be less noble than the daughter of the Marquis?". Five

"Then, do you want your daughter to be the royal concubine?" the emperor said with a smile.

"Of course, Princess Yongchen is still young, and Prince Chen is already fourteen. He needs a virtuous wife to take care of him." Yu Guogong said with a serious look on his face.

The emperor laughed and stood up.

"Mr. Yu Guo, you really have a long face. The princess can wait until she has haircut. Your daughter seems to be two years older than Prince Chen."

Being ridiculed by the emperor, Yu Guogong's face turned red and blue, and he gritted his teeth and knelt down.

"Your Majesty, calm down." He was frightened.

"Calm down your anger? How do you want me to calm down? Do you want to snatch the princess's fiancé away?" The emperor said with a snort, and pressed his hand heavily on the table.

"Why is this a robbery, Your Majesty? My daughter and Prince Chen have similar interests and are similar in age. They are a perfect match," Yu Guogong explained hurriedly.

"Like-minded? A match made in heaven?" The emperor sneered, "If you can find these reasons, I will help you."

Duke Yu's face turned pale and his forehead was sweating.

"Your Majesty, you can't just believe something." He said urgently.

"Is it too much to believe?" The emperor smiled, "Then tell me, who fell in love with whom first? I heard that your daughter gave wine to King Chen at King Wu's banquet that day, but King Chen refused on the spot.

, is this called like-minded? A match made in heaven? Even King Chen himself doesn’t like it, how can you ask me to grant you a marriage?"

Duke Yu was immediately speechless.

The emperor stopped smiling and his face darkened.

"Don't forget, Prince Chen and Yongchen have a marriage contract. This has nothing to do with whether you are a duke or not, and whether Sheng Lixin is a marquis." He said solemnly, "You understand first come first served, right?"

"But...but they haven't gotten married yet after all!" Yu Guogong retorted with a blushing face, "My little daughter is willing to support the duties of the principal concubine and let the princess be the concubine. Is it still wronging her? Besides, Prince Chen

His Highness is not an ordinary person. His main concubine must marry someone like the daughter of a minor minister. Even a side concubine is what women in the world dream of. Your Majesty, I will judge you."

The emperor's face became even more gloomy.

"You dare to say this, do you think your daughter is worthy of Prince Chen?" He said coldly.

Not worthy?

These three words are really harsh to the Duke of Guo.

Although he has always been aware that this King Chen is not as powerful as he imagined, he has never felt this way.

"Your Majesty, your words are wrong." Yu Guogong said, "In any case, my daughter is the only daughter of the Duke's family. When it comes to status, family background, appearance, and talents, no woman can be one ten thousandth as good as my daughter."

The emperor sneered.

"Yes, Duke Yu's only daughter is indeed rare in the world." He said.

Duke Yu looked excited.

"Your Majesty, my little girl is by no means an ordinary woman. She is not only stunningly talented, but also has a gentle and gentle temperament. It is a blessing for Prince Chen to marry her," he said.

"What about you?" the emperor asked.

The emperor's sudden question stunned Duke Yu.

What? What about me? What about me?

"My grandson-in-law is going to do big things. Besides these things that women know how to do, what else can your little daughter or you do?" the emperor said slowly.

"Your Majesty..." Yu Guogong hesitated and then said, "I can assist His Highness Prince Chen..."

The emperor waved his hand and interrupted him.

"You don't need to say anything.

” he said.

"But, Your Majesty," Yu Guogong shouted anxiously, "My daughter is not only talented in virtue and art, but she is also a legitimate daughter. She should be more than enough to be paired with a concubine."

The emperor laughed twice, took a sip from the tea bowl, shook his head, and finally threw the tea bowl to the ground angrily. The servants in the imperial study quickly bowed their heads and knelt on the ground, shivering and trembling.

The crackling sound reached the Duke's ears, his head buzzed, his lips trembled several times and finally he was speechless.

"Duke Yu." The emperor's voice was filled with anger.

Duke Yu fell to the ground and kowtowed.

"I am ignorant and do not understand the importance of things. Your Majesty, please forgive me." He said, his heart beating wildly.

"Ignorant? I don't think you are stupid at all. What's the matter with King Chen being a concubine? A concubine is also the grandson of the emperor. I think you are tired of sitting in the hereditary position of Duke, so I want to change it," the emperor said.

"Your Majesty, I don't dare," Yu Guogong said in a trembling voice.

"Don't you dare?" The emperor sneered, "Why don't you dare? Didn't you say that your daughter can be a good concubine of Prince Chen and also do her duty as a concubine? Since your daughter can do it, I am not the only one who can do it.

Wang is a grandson of the emperor, and King Wu is also someone who can be entrusted to him for life."

Duke Yu Guo was stunned, speechless and speechless.

King Wu, King Wu is already thirty years old, how can he marry Manrou?

This... this is simply ridiculous.

"Your Majesty, you are forcing me to death." He cried, "My daughter, she is only sixteen, how can she marry King Wu... Besides, King Wu already has a concubine."

The emperor sneered again.

"I don't even agree with the principal concubine. It doesn't matter. If Yu Guogong's daughter marries her, I will be quite satisfied. Although she is a bit older, there are big benefits. She will love people."

this….

Yu Guogong was completely dumbfounded.

"What about King Wu's principal concubine?" he asked in a voice.

The emperor chuckled: "What can we do? Since there is a more suitable candidate for the main concubine, of course let him divorce his wife or make him a concubine!"

Duke Yu's eyes widened and he couldn't say a word.

The emperor actually wanted King Wu to divorce his wife?

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you must not do this." He threw himself on the ground and kowtowed.

"How is it impossible?" The emperor sneered, "Isn't that what you want."

"No, that's not what I meant." Yu Guogong defended in panic, "I would never dare."

The emperor stood on the dragon throne and looked down at him.

"No, you dare." He said slowly.

He said these words calmly, but when they fell in the ears of Duke Yu, they were like thunder exploding, and he was paralyzed with fear.

In this palace, in this world, there are people who dare to question the emperor, and there are people who dare to disobey the emperor, but no one dares to question the emperor's wrong statement.

Duke Yu knelt down, trembling all over.
