Marriage!
The Emperor's second decree was to betroth Miao Yiniang to the Crown Prince, Xia Ying!
Miao Yiniang was the one who knew the grudge between the Crown Prince, Xia Ying, and Chu Mo the best. The Emperor's motive was enough to shock her, "The peach trees haven't been planted yet, and he's already planning to pick the peaches?"
Chu Mo was also extremely angry, but at the same time, he was very disappointed in the Emperor.
After interacting with the Emperor twice, Chu Mo had always felt that as the Emperor of Da Xia, the current Emperor was a very open-minded person. Compared to the Emperor, the Crown Prince's magnanimity and methods were like the difference between heaven and earth.
Just like how the Emperor knew about the grudge between him and the Crown Prince, but still valued him highly and dared to put him in an important position. This was the magnanimity and magnanimity of a country's Emperor, as well as his strong self-confidence!
But this decree … What did it mean?
The wording of the decree was not stiff, but it was definitely not negotiable!
It said that Miao Yiniang, as a direct disciple of a top-notch sect in the Vermillion Bird continent, had a noble background, a good character, and a good appearance … Although the sect was destroyed, she had a firm will and never stopped striving for self-improvement. Such an outstanding woman was completely worthy of the future Emperor of Da Xia, the current Crown Prince!
The marriage between the two would be beneficial to the future development of the Misty Palace Royal School.
The decree also mentioned that a sect established in the secular world would not only attract the attention of its enemies, but would also attract the covetous eyes of countless sects in the Azure Dragon continent. In order to ensure that the development of the Misty Palace Royal School would not be affected, the two sides should establish a closer relationship.
This way, when facing all kinds of difficulties in the future, The Royal Family of Da Xia would have more reason to protect the Misty Palace Royal School and Miao Yiniang.
Just by looking at this decree, those who did not know the inside story would definitely think that the Emperor was too wise and treated Miao Yiniang well.
You're a homeless sect disciple. If you marry the Crown Prince, you'll be the Imperial Concubine of a country in the future! Even if it wasn't enough to transform into a phoenix, at the very least … it was enough to show the sincerity and importance of the royal family.
Yes, those who didn't understand the grudge between Chu Mo and the Crown Prince would definitely think so.
But anyone who knew the inside story of this matter would be very surprised.
"What has bewitched His Majesty? How could they issue such a muddleheaded imperial edict? " Xu Fufu, who was always laughing and joking, had a cold expression on his face at this moment. His eyes shone with the light of anger. "He wants this matter to die in the womb, doesn't he?"
After his anger subsided, Chu Mo quickly calmed down. He sat there with a bitter smile on his face and said, "This matter … is my fault!"
"How can I blame you?" Miao Yiniang glanced at Chu Mo. "If we want to blame someone … we can only blame ourselves for not having enough experience."
"No, it's not like that." Chu Mo said bitterly, "I thought of the threat of those sects in the Vermilion Bird Continent, the threat of the Suzaku Society, and even … the threat of those sects in the Azure Dragon Continent. I also thought of all of them. And I also have a way to deal with them. But … I neglected His Majesty's view on this matter and his appetite. "
Chu Mo sighed. He looked at Miao Yiniang and Xu Fufu and said, "I took it for granted that as long as we hang the name of the royal family on the sect and give His Majesty the identity of a spiritual leader. Then, in the future, we can continue to cultivate high-level talents for the royal family. His Majesty will definitely be tempted and agree in the end. But I underestimated how attractive this inheritance of the Ethereal Palace is to the people of the world. I forgot that His Majesty is a member of the secular world after all, and he is not a god! Facing this kind of inheritance from a top sect, just being a spiritual leader is not enough to satisfy his appetite. He wants … this inheritance, this power, to completely … become the power of the royal family of Da Xia! "
Miao Yiniang nodded silently. "All these years, I didn't dare to reveal this inheritance because of this reason."
Chu Mo looked at Miao Yiniang and said, "Then why didn't you stop me?"
Miao Yiniang smiled bitterly and said, "My existence is no longer a secret. This inheritance will be revealed to the world sooner or later. Actually, we have no other choice. I think … His Majesty must have grasped this point, which is why he issued this decree without fear, right? "
Chu Mo was silent for a while, then nodded and said, "That's right. Otherwise, His Majesty would have discussed it with me first."
Xu Fufu said angrily at the side, "What should we do now? We can't possibly agree, can we? If we do that, it will be too ridiculous! "
Miao Yiniang said faintly, "To be honest, to His Majesty, this is not ridiculous at all. From his point of view, the only one who can provide me with protection … is the royal family of Da Xia. Other than that, everyone else would want to swallow me whole, skin and bones … without leaving anything behind. He has given me a rather decent way out. Hehe, becoming a concubine of the Crown Prince, he is giving me a favor. "
Chu Mo's face was ashen. This loss was too big for him. Now that the news had been released, there was almost no way out.
Riding a tiger, it was hard to get off!
His Majesty also knew that these people would not dare to resist.
Were they really going to barge into the palace and make a scene with His Majesty? If they did that, there was no other possibility other than a complete break with His Majesty.
After all, the monarch of a country would never be threatened like this.
"Let's secretly kill the Crown Prince!" Xu Fufu's eyes were cold as he looked at the two of them and said, "If the Crown Prince is dead, this matter will be ruined!"
"Nonsense." Chu Mo glared at Xu Fufu and said, "Even if we can secretly kill the Crown Prince, can't His Majesty appoint another one? Can they all be killed secretly? Moreover, His Majesty will know who did this to the Crown Prince at this time. "
"Then what should we do? Can you really watch Sister Yiniang marry that bastard without doing anything? " Xu Fufu stood up and glared at Chu Mo angrily, "Don't you know how Sister Yiniang feels about you? Why are you hesitating? Are you a man or not? "
"I am not a man, are you? Go back and ask your grandfather if he has any good ideas about this matter. Why are you shouting at me? " Chu Mo was also angry. He looked at Xu Fufu and said, "Did I say anything about marrying Sister Yiniang to the Crown Prince?"
"That's the feeling I get from your reaction and performance right now. You're hesitating! You disappoint me! "Xu Fufu said angrily, then turned around and left, slamming the door behind him as he left.
Bang!
The heavy wooden door made a loud sound.
Chu Mo and Miao Yiniang looked at each other.
Miao Yiniang snorted and looked at the angry Chu Mo and said, "You two … Really, it seems like you haven't quarreled like this in years, right?"
"I am so angry!" Chu Mo let out a long breath, "Dog temper!"
"You also have a dog temper," Miao Yiniang rolled her eyes at Chu Mo, "Do you dare to say that in your heart, you didn't want to kill the Crown Prince? You deliberately angered him to leave, didn't you? "
Chu Mo rolled his eyes but didn't deny it. He said indifferently, "I am different from Er Fu. He can't do what I can do!"
"You can't do it either!" Miao Yiniang leaned on the chair, revealing her perfect curves. Her pair of beautiful eyes stared at Chu Mo, "Actually, things have not reached the worst stage yet, have they?"
Chu Mo nodded, "Of course, not to mention that we haven't agreed yet. Even if we did, can't we still kidnap the bride?"
Pu!
Miao Yiniang almost choked. She looked at Chu Mo and said, "Kidnap the bride of the royal family … You really dare to think about it. However, if you really do it, you will probably be the first person in history to do so."
Chu Mo was about to say something when suddenly there was a knock on the door. Miao Yiniang's trusted servant girl said from outside, "Miss, Young Master Chu, there is a girl outside who calls herself Shen Xingxue asking to see you. She says she is Young Master Chu's friend."
Miao Yiniang and Chu Mo looked at each other.
Chu Mo frowned, "Princess? What is she here for? "
