Chapter 273: Legend of Zhen Huan - Yun Li 19
The emperor asked Yunli with a serious face, "Yunli, you have to think clearly. Your wife's status is so low, how can you suppress your concubines in the future?"
Hearing this, Yunli said bluntly: "This minister will only have her as his wife in this life, and no other woman will enter the house."
"Nonsense!" The emperor frowned and said sternly, "How could you, a prince, have only one woman in your backyard?"
Facing the angry emperor, Yunli still answered calmly: "I have made up my mind. She is the only one in my life. I hope my brother will grant my wish."
As he spoke, Yunli lifted up his clothes with both hands and knelt on his knees.
The emperor looked at Yunli's resolute attitude and was shocked and surprised. He thought: What kind of person could make Yunli treat him like this?
The emperor thought that after Yunli left, he would investigate the woman's background.
At this time in the hall, the emperor was sitting on the dragon throne, and Yunli was kneeling on the ground facing the emperor.
The two of them competed silently.
After a long while, the emperor sighed and said, "I have never seen you go this far for anyone. Well, if you two really love each other, I will not be the one to break up the couple. I approve your marriage."
Yunli was overjoyed and knelt down with joy on his face to thank the emperor for his grace.
The emperor agreed to the marriage, and Yunli took his leave and went back to prepare for the wedding.
The emperor remained silent for a long time as he watched Yunli leave.
At this moment, the emperor thought of his Queen Chunyuan. He and Chunyuan had been like this before, and they would do anything to be with each other.
Just now, I saw her kneeling in front of me, saying with a firm attitude that she wanted to marry someone, and her back overlapped with my own when I was young.
He and Chunyuan had a bad ending. I hope Yunli and his wife can live together forever in love.
At the same time, the emperor breathed a sigh of relief as if a huge stone had been lifted off his shoulders.
Although Yunli grew up by his side and their relationship was even deeper than that of his own brother, the Fourteenth Brother, the emperor's suspicious nature prevented him from trusting anyone 100%. Yunli did not have that ambition now, but it did not mean that he would not have it in the future. He still had to be on guard.
Now Yunli's wife is just a girl from an ordinary family and she can't be of any help to Yunli's future, which makes him feel relieved.
But on second thought, could this be a trick played by Yunli to confuse him and make him let down his guard?
Soon the emperor no longer cared about these things, and the reason was very simple.
The noble families who had previously submitted memorials to the Emperor and the Empress Dowager were all very dissatisfied when they learned that Prince Guo was going to marry a commoner. They thought that Prince Guo was marrying a commoner just to humiliate them.
At this time, the emperor received many memorials from the ministers of the Manchu clans and other important families, asking about the crime of Prince Guo.
This gave the emperor a headache, for he then remembered that Yunli wanted to marry a commoner woman. Besides him and the Queen Mother who would object, there were also those clans and powerful families who wanted to marry Prince Guo.
The Empress Dowager was old, and the ladies and wives of noble families did not dare to bother her too much, but the Empress, who was the sister-in-law of Prince Guo, was harassed by them.
The Queen had no idea that the woman Yunli proposed to marry in the end was a commoner. The Queen Mother and the Emperor did not tell her when they agreed.
When the Queen heard from the Emperor that Yunli wanted to live with his future wife for the rest of his life, she was very envious.
I envy that commoner girl who could win the favor of Prince Guo.
There were too many memorials submitted by the ladies of honor, and the queen had no choice but to pretend that she had a headache and refused to see the guests.
The daughter of a wealthy Manchu family actually lost to a commoner girl from Jiangnan who had no power or background. All the women who originally loved Prince Guo hated the woman who was about to become Prince Guo's wife.
Those people were all asking when Prince Guo would get married. They wanted to see what kind of woman was the one who could make Prince Guo reject all the daughters of the Manchu noble families.
As for the two parties involved, Yunli and Su Qingqing, the way they get along is not as close as everyone thinks. Instead, it is more like a superior-subordinate relationship.
Su Qingqing's original name was not Su Qingqing, but Yin Shisan, and she was the thirteenth strongest among his secret guards.
She is also the only woman among his secret guards.
Yunli knew that after he was promoted to Prince Guo, the matter of marrying a wife would have to be put on the agenda, but he had already decided to fake his death and it was impossible for him to continue staying in the capital.
The wife he wants to marry cannot be from the capital.
Fortunately, among the people left for him by the Emperor, there is a secret guard of similar age who can just shut those people up. Although the process may be a little troublesome, doesn't he have the Emperor above him?
After he gets married, he should have less contact with those people and put the "faked death plan" on the agenda as soon as possible.
The emperor, who was annoyed and had a headache, said: Thank you!
He arranged a fake identity for Yin Shisan, so even if the emperor investigated Su Qingqing's identity, he would not find any flaws. Su Qingqing's family background was very clean.
Su Qingqing was standing respectfully beside Yunli at this time, while Yunli was looking at the wedding list.
He announced to the public that he was marrying his beloved, so naturally he would take care of the wedding himself and strive to make it perfect.
Su Qingqing had no right to speak and was just a background board. Her expression was vivid only when Yunli said he wanted to put on a show.
Before getting married, Su Qingqing and Yunli went to the palace to meet the Empress Dowager and the Queen once.
The ugly daughter-in-law has to meet her parents-in-law eventually.
As the Queen Mother, who is Yunli's adoptive mother, and the Queen, who is Yunli's sister-in-law, naturally want to meet Su Qingqing in person.
Su Qingqing is not tall, but she is also good-looking, a typical beautiful girl next door.
When the Queen saw Yunli protecting Su Qingqing and even giving her some advice, she felt even more envious.
When Meng Jingxian returned to the capital with her husband, she heard that Prince Guo was going to get married.
Meng Jingxian was still a little dazed when she heard the words "Prince Guo". When she heard that Prince Guo was the Prince Guo whom she knew, and then when she heard that Prince Guo was going to marry a commoner woman as his principal wife, Meng Jingxian was completely stunned.
How come Prince Guo became the Prince of Guo and married a commoner? What about Zhen Yuyin? What about Zhen Huan?
Prince Guo doesn't want them both anymore!
At this time, it had been more than half a year since Meng Jingxian last returned to Beijing. She had no idea what had happened in the capital during this period of time.
There was no favored Concubine Wan in the palace, and the Emperor found a reason to exile the Zhen family to Ningguta. At this time, there were no ministers of the Zhen family serving as officials in the capital.
As for Prince Guo's promotion, Meng Jingxian had never heard in her previous life that Prince Guo would go to conquer Junggar during this period.
In Meng Jingxian's memory, at that time, Dzungar had not yet been incorporated into the territory of the Qing Dynasty.
When her son was still alive, Dzungar was still provoking the Qing Dynasty.
Meng Jingxian didn't know what she had missed and felt uneasy.
Could it be that besides her, there are other people who have been reborn?
