“Look, this is the son that mother doted on. He doesn’t put me in his eyes at all. Not only did he interfere with my decision, but he also came to threaten me. If I don’t arrange a marriage for him and Princess Lingyi, he will do something extreme.”
“Mother, listen, listen, does he even care about me, the Emperor?”
Xiao Jiuyuan raised his eyebrows slightly, and his black eyes were as deep as a bottomless abyss.
He said slowly.
“Imperial brother, I want to ask if you treat me as your brother? If you treat me as a brother, why do you have to give someone else to the person your brother likes?”
“I don’t understand why you are so afraid of me. Yes, I have some ability, but I have never dreamed of your vast territory. To be honest, I, Xiao Jiuyuan, am not interested in the throne. If I really want the throne, I want to be the Overlord of the world, not your position.”
Xiao Jiuyuan’s arrogant look not only did not make the old Emperor relax, but on the contrary, it made him even more afraid.
He looked at the Empress Dowager and said,”mother, look at him.”
The Empress Dowager was so angry that she didn’t want to say anything. She was already furious that her eldest son and the Crown Prince of Nan Zhao had used her name to set a trap.
Now that Princess Ling Yi had been found by Yuan ‘er, her eldest son was still so arrogant.
This made the Empress Dowager very angry.
She turned her head to look at the Emperor above and said,””Emperor, you’d better give an order to betroth Princess Lingyi to Yuan ‘er.”
“What he wants has never been Dongli’s Empire or the throne, so you’d better fulfill his wish.”
As soon as the Empress Dowager finished speaking, the old Emperor was so angry that he couldn’t breathe. His fingers trembled a few times before he pointed at Xiao Jiuyuan.
“Mother, it’s not that I don’t want to arrange the marriage for them, but he made a scene in the palace and asked me to break off the marriage for him. Later, he didn’t want to break off the marriage, so I thought he was willing to marry Princess Lingyi. In the end, Princess Lingyi refused to marry him and asked me to break off the marriage again and again. Fine, I will not give him an edict for his sake.”
“But afterwards, he agreed to break off the engagement and Zhen gave the decree to break off the engagement. How long has it been? he wants me to issue a decree to appoint a marriage again. I want to ask, are my words so worthless? The world says that the emperor’s words are like gold and Jade, but what am I now? will the people still believe me?”
The Empress Dowager thought for a moment. She had indeed put the Emperor in a difficult position.
So, she looked at Xiao Jiuyuan, glared at him, and said,””This is the only time, there won’t be a next time.”
The Emperor looked down at the mother and son.
One doted on his son like his life, while the other didn’t care about him at all.
Good, good, what a good mother and son pair.
He became the bystander.
The Emperor was so angry that he laughed. However, he also knew that if he did not give an order, Xiao Jiuyuan would not let it go. It would be normal for him to do something.
The Emperor thought for a while and finally gritted his teeth.””Alright, this is the only time. There won’t be a next time. If there’s a next time, I won’t let you off easily.”
After the Emperor finished speaking, he suddenly gave an order.
“Come, draft the decree. The Emperor has summoned us. Today, li Prince Xiao Jiuyuan has come to the palace to ask for a marriage. Princess Ling Yi will be betrothed to li Prince Xiao Jiuyuan as li Prince’s Princess. ”
As soon as the emperor’s order was given, a eunuch immediately came in to draft the decree.
Xiao Jiuyuan’s face finally looked better. He thanked the old Emperor,””Chengdi thanks the Emperor for his kindness.”
This “thank you” made the old Emperor roll his eyes and lean back in his chair.
If he could, would he issue a decree to bestow marriage?
He actually still had the face to thank her.
