Chapter 62: Broken Engagement (2)
Chapter 62: Broken Engagement (2)
Since General Ye took the initiative to propose the cancellation of the engagement, Xiao Chuhan had the initiative. This way he couldn't be too obvious. Even if it got out later, it would be General Ye and his friends who broke off the engagement first. He could also explain to the Queen Mother. If the matter continued to develop in this way, wouldn't it become simpler?
General Ye looked at Xiao Chuhan's expression. He was not sure what Xiao Chuhan was thinking for a moment, and he suddenly became panicked.
"Your Majesty, I have thought about the impact of breaking off the engagement."
"But?"
"Since General Ye knows that breaking off the engagement will have a negative impact, and he still wants to break off the engagement, General Ye may be too fond of his daughter."
"Your Majesty, allow me to say a few words."
"General Ye, please speak?"
"Your Majesty, haven't you always been fond of my little daughter Wuyou?"
"If the emperor breaks off the engagement with my eldest daughter, I am willing to marry my youngest daughter, Ye Wuyou, to the emperor."
"General Ye, who told you that the person I love is your daughter from the Ye family?"
"General Ye, you want to break off the engagement for your eldest daughter and use your youngest daughter as a shield."
"Is this how you, General Ye, do things?"
When General Ye heard what Xiao Chuhan said, he became even more flustered. He stood up and knelt in front of Xiao Chuhan.
"Your Majesty, I shouldn't have made such reckless guesses. Please forgive me."
Seeing that the situation was not good, Ye Li also knelt down.
"Your Majesty, my father did not mean it. Please forgive me."
Xiao Chuhan stood up and walked to General Ye and helped General Ye up.
"General Ye, what are you doing?"
"We're just chatting, don't be so serious."
"emperor."
"Ye Li, you get up too."
"You know that canceling the engagement is no small matter. It concerns the reputation of the royal family."
"How can I make a decision casually? Since General Ye's daughter doesn't want to marry me, I am not a cruel person. Since she doesn't want to, I won't force her."
"It's just that I need to go back and discuss this matter with my mother."
"Thank you for your understanding, Your Majesty. I am willing to go with you to see the Queen Mother and apologize to her."
"Don't rush into this matter. I will give you a reply after discussing it with my mother."
"Your Majesty is wise. Thank you very much, Your Majesty."
"But, your eldest daughter doesn't want to marry me, how do you know if your youngest daughter is willing?"
"Being able to marry the emperor is a blessing she earned in her previous life. Why would she be willing or unwilling?"
"However, if I were to let my youngest daughter marry the emperor, I'm afraid she would not be worthy of his status."
This sentence made Xiao Chuhan very angry. They were all his biological children, so why were they treated differently?
"General Ye, after all, they are all your own flesh and blood. Why do you treat them differently?"
"Your Majesty... your humble servant."
"Forget it, this is not a trivial matter. I don't want General Ye's little daughter to marry me unwillingly in the end. If that happens, I, as the emperor, will lose face."
"The person who marries me must be willing in both heart and soul."
"Wei Chen understands."
"Your Majesty, please rest assured. I will make sure my little daughter will marry you willingly."
"General Ye, I will return to the palace today."
"After all, the wedding is approaching, and you have caused this kind of trouble again. I have to go back to the palace to deal with it."
"Your Majesty, I am sorry to have caused you trouble."
"I leave this matter to Your Majesty. I will do my best to serve the country."
"General Ye, what you said is very serious."
"I will return to the palace first."
"Your humble servant is here to see His Majesty off."
"Don't bother General Ye, just let Ye Li take me there."
"Your Majesty, take care."
After the emperor left, General Ye felt relieved. He knew that as long as the emperor agreed, there would be no problem. What needed to be solved now was Ye Wuyou's problem.
