Chapter 140 Princess Yu will definitely be allowed to marry!
"Prince Jiajing! Marriage between Great Yan and Great Mo has always been a common practice! Yesterday, I informed Prince Yu of my intentions. I beg Your Majesty to make it happen!"
"If this prince and the girl he loves can find a happy marriage, we will definitely treat each other with respect and love each other deeply!"
"I guarantee this with my own head! If this marriage takes place, my Great Desert Kingdom will be able to coexist peacefully with the Great Yan Kingdom, and the people will be able to live and work in peace!"
After three rounds of drinks, Wanyan Honglie, dressed in his best attire, walked from the banquet table to the main hall, raised his hands, clasped his fists, and said to Prince Jiajing with a smile on his face.
Prince Jiajing smiled at Concubine De who was sitting next to him and could not help but pat the back of her hand gently.
During these days, Wanyan Honglie has remained inactive and has not caused any trouble, and Concubine De has made an indelible contribution to this.
Concubine De suggested finding two beautiful women from the palace who were good at singing and dancing and presenting them to Wanyan Honglie. Since ancient times, most people preferred the throne to beauty. This would ease Prince Jun's hostility towards Dayan and also facilitate future exchanges between the two countries.
The two maids she personally selected were as beautiful as fairies, with slender waists that seemed boneless. She also specially asked a nanny to teach her some secret techniques of sex, so that Wanyan Honglie could be served comfortably.
This is a great achievement. Exchanging two beauties for the people to be free from the suffering of war is a good deal no matter how you look at it.
Prince Jiajing was very pleased and rewarded Concubine De with countless jewels. In recent days, he has been summoning Concubine De to sleep with him frequently.
Speaking of Consort De, Sun Lanxin was far more intelligent than Empress Lü Shufang. Although she wept bitterly over the murder of her uncle, Sun Qi, by Li Zhenting, she never once spoke ill of Li Zhenting in front of him.
This is something that Queen Lu Shufang could never compare to. What the Great Yan Kingdom lacks is a queen as virtuous, kind and magnanimous as Concubine De.
The look in Prince Jiajing's eyes when he looked at Concubine De was full of approval.
"Prince Jun is interested in marrying into the Great Yan family. This will bring happiness to the people of both countries, and I naturally fully support it! It's better to do it now than to wait for a day. Why not hold a Great Yan wedding ceremony today to help Prince Jun get married? How about giving the two beauties who previously served Prince Jun to him?"
Prince Jiajing smiled brightly. Taking concubines was commonplace in the Great Desert Kingdom, especially since these two beauties were of low status. Given Prince Jun's status, he could simply bring them back to the Great Desert Kingdom and the marriage would be complete. The fact that he personally proposed marriage was a testament to his sincerity.
Could it be that he was frightened by the military review on the battlefield that day, and the two beauties served him so well, so Prince Jun formally proposed marriage before leaving, so as to give the two beauties a status?
But what Wanyan Honglie said next almost made Prince Jiajing curse in anger.
"Hahaha, Prince Jiajing has misunderstood. The one I want to marry is the current Princess of Yu, Fang Qingqing! Not these two lowly servants!"
Wanyan Honglie threw his head back and laughed wildly, his eyes fixed on Prince Yu and his wife who were sitting below Prince Jiajing.
Princess Yu's face was as radiant as a peach blossom, a beauty beyond measure. She seemed to have not heard him speak, her head lowered as she ate. Her innocent appearance only served to tickle his heart.
Li Zhenting's face was as gloomy as ever. He naturally couldn't tolerate Wanyan Honglie saying such insulting words in public.
"boom!"
He slammed his fist on the table, staring at Wanyan Honglie with bloodshot eyes, his eyes already blazing with rage.
"How dare you! How could you covet my princess? Please keep your dignity!"
If he had not been worried that killing Wanyan Honglie would cause war and harm innocent people, he would have been unable to vent his hatred even if he had torn this ignorant Tartar into pieces!
Even if the relationship between him and Fang Qingqing remained as cold as it had been since their marriage, he would never tolerate Wanyan Honglie coveting his princess! Needless to say, he loved Fang Qingqing dearly, and she was pregnant with his twin children! As a husband, he had to protect her! How could he allow anyone else to covet her?
When Wanyan Honglie returns safely to the desert, he will naturally have a way to make him pay the price for what happened today!
"Your Majesty! I believe that a marriage alliance is beneficial to both the country and the people! If Prince Jun and my Great Yan form a Qin-Jin friendship, our two countries will surely establish friendly diplomatic relations. Not only will the people of the world be spared the suffering of war, but the two countries will also be able to exchange what they have and what they need, and the economy will be greatly improved. This is a blessing for all people in the world."
"Besides, Prince Jun is a brave warrior and skilled in horsemanship and military tactics, and the princess is also a woman who is as capable as any man. They are a perfect match."
After hearing what Wanyan Honglie said, Lu Shufang suddenly realized that this Tartar had taken a fancy to Prince Yu's wife Fang Qingqing!
This was God's help. She had been worrying about Fang Qingqing, the troublemaker, all day long. If she could get rid of this trouble with the help of Prince Jun, it would be like cutting off Li Zhenting's left and right arms!
If she finds a way to kill Li Zhenting, then wouldn't her biological eldest prince Li Huating be able to ascend to the throne smoothly?
Recently, she has been tormented by a series of upsetting things and has been unable to sleep or eat. It really proves the old saying that after the worst comes the best, and it is like the moon is shining after the dark clouds have cleared!
Lu Shufang was so happy that she couldn't hide the smile on her face at all, and hurriedly spoke to Prince Jiajing.
A hint of sarcasm flashed in the corner of Concubine De's eyes as she sat next to Prince Jiajing.
This brainless Lu Shufang is really asking for trouble!
Even if Prince Jiajing was wary of an invasion by the Great Desert Kingdom, he would never agree to such an unreasonable request. Li Zhenting was Prince Jiajing's beloved second prince, and Princess Yu was pregnant with twins, Prince Jiajing's own grandchildren!
Isn't she afraid of her head falling off when she says such brainless things?
"Although a marriage alliance benefits the country and the people, we must ultimately consider the practical situation. Princess Yu and Prince Yu are a loving couple, a harmonious couple. This is well-known throughout the Great Yan Kingdom. The Emperor has even called on young people across the country to follow Prince Yu and Princess Yu as role models."
"Besides, Princess Yu is already pregnant with twins. How can Princess Yu go to marry? Wouldn't that harm the little grandson..."
Defei Sun Lanxin frowned and looked angry. Although she did not mention anyone by name, she had already drawn her sword and pointed it at Empress Lu.
"Hahaha, since this prince admires Princess Yu, I will naturally treat her son well! Please rest assured, Prince Yu! When Princess Yu follows me back to the desert, I will treat her child as my own! I will also teach the child all my skills, and when the child grows up, he can come back and fight Prince Yu!"
Wanyan Honglie spoke wildly, looking at the Princess Yu who was sitting next to Li Zhenting with an obscene smile.
It's been a month since I last saw her, and Princess Yu looks even more plump and beautiful than she was a month ago.
She had a fair complexion and rosy cheeks, and a pair of clear and bright eyes like apricots. Seeing a group of people arguing fiercely about the marriage, she acted as if nothing had happened and was busy eating the fruit snacks in front of her.
Haha! She must be too guilty to speak out! After all, if he told everyone about the affair in the back mountains that night, not only would she have to marry him, but she would also lose face!
Otherwise, with her eloquence, why would she not dare to speak out?
