He naturally couldn't go back on his word, but he was reluctant to let the King of Great Qian marry his daughter to Chen Jiu.
Yes, putting aside the fact that he had killed the members of the Heavenly Son Society and would cause endless trouble, he couldn't accept the fact that the King of Great Qian wouldn't touch a woman.
'You newlyweds can go and enjoy yourselves while I'm left alone. How can I do that?' The King of Great Qian was unwilling to agree to their marriage immediately because he was full of resentment.
Fuming, the King of Great Qian led his men back to the palace.
In the Great Qian Royal Palace, the officials lined up and congratulated the King of Great Qian. Chen Jiu couldn't take it in and had to respond to them one by one.
"Okay, cut the pleasantries. The princess's wedding has to be postponed for a few more years." At this moment, the King of Great Qian suddenly hollered at the officials.
"What? Father, are you trying to go back on your word? "Qian Xiangyi immediately flew into a rage and pointed at the King of Great Qian.
"Xiangyi, don't be so impatient." The King of Great Qian blushed and thought, 'You're really worse than a man. Why are you siding with an outsider? Are you going to help someone else deal with your father?'
The King of Great Qian was very aggrieved, but he couldn't really get angry in front of the officials. "Xiangyi, you're still young and it's not suitable for you to get married yet. I'll fall for you first. It won't be too late for you to marry him when you grow up."
"Father, I'm not young anymore. Have you forgotten that you just married a concubine two years ago? She's only 12 years old. I'm already 16 this year." Qian Xiangyi immediately exposed the King of Great Qian's past.
"Ahem … Xiangyi, don't spout nonsense." The King of Great Qian suddenly felt a little embarrassed. He looked at Chen Jiu sternly and said, "Chen Guan, you're a true hero, but if you want to marry my daughter, you'll have to make some contributions. How about this, I'll give you a million soldiers and horses. Once you settle the chaos in the four regions, I'll marry the princess to you immediately. How about that?"
"Your Majesty, you want me to work for you without any benefits? Aren't you too naive?" Chen Jiu sneered and cut to the chase. "I, Chen Guan, will say the ugly words first. Today, if you keep your promise and marry the princess to me, that's fine. If you don't, then don't blame me for being merciless and bathing the imperial city in blood."
"What? How dare you threaten me! "The king of the Great Qian Dynasty flew into a rage.
"It's best if you don't force me to attack. You should know that even an Earth Walker's Sovereign Lord can't take a single blow from me," said Chen Jiu darkly.
"You …" The king of the Great Qian Dynasty's eyes widened and he couldn't help but mutter. 'This kid may be a little disobedient, but he's indeed outstanding. Maybe he can resist the revenge of the Tianzi Association?'
"Royal father, don't hesitate anymore. Hurry up and announce our wedding." Qian Xiangyi couldn't help but try to persuade him.
"Xiangyi, are you sure you want to marry him? Aren't you going to wait for your previous one?" The king of the Great Qian Dynasty didn't want to agree because once he did, he would have to keep his promise. Since he couldn't persuade Chen Jiu, he could only persuade Qian Xiangyi.
Although Chen Jiu had won the championship, as long as he didn't marry Qian Xiangyi, the king of the Great Qian Dynasty could use all sorts of reasons to postpone the matter of not touching women.
"Royal father, this is the man I used to like," said Qian Xiangyi in a shocking manner.
"What? He's the one you used to like … "This time, everyone was shocked and a noblewoman couldn't help but walk out from behind the scenes. She liked Chen Jiu no matter how she looked at him.
"So it's an old acquaintance. Chen Guan, since you're here, why didn't you tell me in advance …" The king of the Great Qian Dynasty couldn't help but try to curry favor with him. Since they were old acquaintances, this matter couldn't be changed anymore.
"Hmph, I have nothing to say to you. If I hadn't arrived in time, you would have married my woman off to someone else. If it weren't for Xiangyi, I would have killed you long ago," said Chen Jiu mercilessly. He really didn't have a good impression of the king of the Great Qian Dynasty.
The king of the Great Qian Dynasty was an extravagant and carefree person. Apart from giving birth to such an adorable daughter, there was nothing else that was good about him.
"I …" The king of the Great Qian Dynasty didn't dare to vent his anger. As the emperor, he felt extremely aggrieved to be reprimanded in public.
"Royal father, from now on, as long as you turn over a new leaf and become a good emperor, I believe everyone will still support you," said Qian Xiangyi kindly.
"Really?" The king of the Great Qian Dynasty looked at everyone hopefully and asked.
"Yes, but the prerequisite is that you have to give up on your lust for women," reminded Qian Xiangyi again.
"This …" The king of the Great Qian Dynasty was really put in a spot again.
"Hmph, if he doesn't, I'll castrate him," said Chen Jiu sternly.
"Chen Guan, no matter what, I'm still your father-in-law, right? Since ancient times, which son-in-law castrated his father-in-law? "The king of the Great Qian Dynasty was extremely pitiful.
"If there's no history, I'll create history," Chen Jiu said straightforwardly.
Sss … The king of the Great Qian Dynasty gasped and was really a little scared. However, when he saw how fearless Chen Jiu was, he seemed to be reminded of himself when he was fighting on the battlefield back then. He was extremely touched.
There was no Great Qian Dynasty in history. The reason why there was a history was because of his family, who fought for it step by step …
"Your Majesty, hurry up and announce the marriage …" The noblewoman reminded cleverly. If the confrontation continued, it wouldn't be beneficial to the king of the Great Qian Dynasty at all. In the face of absolute power, all schemes were useless. The only thing that mattered now was to hold the wedding honestly.
"Okay, I admit that I've been mentally crippled all these years, but please rest assured that I'll definitely turn over a new leaf and become a wise emperor." All of a sudden, the king of the Great Qian Dynasty seemed to have come to a realization. First of all, he apologized to everyone solemnly.
If it weren't for the fact that he didn't care about politics, the entire Great Qian Dynasty wouldn't have collapsed overnight. If he continued to be so obsessed, how could his dynasty be repeated?
As the saying goes, it's easy to conquer a country, but difficult to defend it. Now that it was time to conquer another country, the king of the Great Qian Dynasty couldn't help but be full of fighting spirit and passion.
"Long live Your Majesty …" Seeing that the king of the Great Qian Dynasty was genuinely remorseful and apologizing to his subjects, the ministers were all extremely touched as they all knelt on the ground.
"Chen Guan, you defeated everyone and became the champion of the joust for marriage. You're indeed a rare talent. I now officially announce that your wedding with the princess will be held immediately." Without further delay, the king of the Great Qian Dynasty looked at Chen Jiu with some gratitude and finally agreed to their marriage.
