Chapter 357 Ashina's Stubbornness
Murong Hua's face darkened slightly: "Do you think I want to?"
"But now you can see that Xue'er's reputation is already like that. If I don't pick a good one for him, do I have to wait for someone else to choose one in the future?"
Ji Ruxue seemed dissatisfied, and pursed her lips slightly: "Father~"
Feng Jun glanced at him and said, "Don't be so hasty to object. I'm just taking a look first. I'm not asking you to get married right now."
"I……"
Ji Ruxue's face didn't look very good. She wanted to say something but didn't know what to say.
married?
He didn't think about it.
But his reputation has been damaged, and it may be difficult for him to find a clean family.
But he really didn't want to get married so soon.
"Okay, it's settled. Thank you for your concern, Shang'er."
Seeing her father's firm attitude, Ji Huachang stopped trying to persuade him. Besides, Xue'er was already over the age of 15, and it was time for her to consider her lifelong affairs.
"Don't worry, father and queen. Your Majesty's affairs are my affairs. I will definitely choose a good wife for your Majesty."
"Ah."
Seeing that the siblings had a good relationship, Feng Jun was relieved.
On the other side, the Royal Post House
"Daughter, how could you make the decision on your own and choose a person with bad character like the Sixth Prince? If the King knew about this, he would probably blame you."
"Yes, Princess, although the Sixth Prince is good-looking, he is of little use. If we want to use him to contain Dong Zhou, I'm afraid he won't work."
……
The envoys tried to persuade Ashina one after another.
Ashina was very angry after hearing this. After returning, he listened to the envoys nagging endlessly, which made everyone annoyed.
"Everyone, shut up, Xiao Wang!"
Ashina's impatient rebuke frightened the envoys into silence.
"Am I going to marry a husband or are you going to marry a husband?!"
"You guys have nothing to do all day long but stare at other people's backyards. First it was my mother, and now it's me. What do you want to do?"
Ashina was furious at the envoy and was rude to him. "So what if the young prince has a crush on the Sixth Prince?"
"You just want to bring back a prince. Isn't the Sixth Prince a prince?"
"What interests are involved? Am I, Zang Rong, afraid of Dong Zhou?"
"Please calm down, my princess. Be careful, there are ears on the other side of the wall."
The envoy lowered his head in fear and reminded.
Princess Ashina snorted coldly: "What are you afraid of? Does Dong Zhou dare to kill us?"
The envoy wiped it dry and said respectfully: "Although we are Zangrong and do not fear the Eastern Zhou, we are now on their territory, so we still need to be careful."
"Humph."
Ashina and others glared at the envoys, thinking they were too timid.
Boosting other people's ambitions will destroy your own prestige.
Shame!
Outside the yard, Yi Xiang and Hu Yanzhen sat in the pavilion, discussing the marriage.
"The princess is determined to go her own way. What's the trick, Prime Minister Yi?"
Yili took a sip of tea, waved his feather fan, and spoke slowly.
"In fact, there is no need to worry. This marriage is just for the covenant of our ancestors. It doesn't matter to Zang Rong whether to marry a prince who is beneficial to him or not."
His eyes flickered slightly, and the corners of his mouth twitched into a sneer: "During the reign of Empress Jingzong, the Eastern Zhou Dynasty might have been a threat to the Zang Rong."
"The Eastern Zhou Dynasty is now strong on the outside but weak on the inside. The princesses are fighting for the throne, and the court officials are also standing on their own sides, competing with each other, and there is no consensus between the upper and lower levels."
"The court of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty has begun to split, and they are just waiting for a favorable opportunity to take advantage of it. It is no longer important who the candidate for marriage is."
He paused, raised his eyebrows, looked at Hu Yanzhen beside him, and spoke slowly.
"What the general needs to do is to train his troops well and wait for the right opportunity."
Hu Yanzhen was not stupid since he could sit in the position of general, so he naturally understood what Yili said.
"Thank you Yixiang for your guidance."
