806 Identity (1)
As soon as he said that, the hall fell silent.
Luo Xueyan did not dare to look into Shen Miao’s eyes. Shen Xin’s voice revealed deep fatigue. Luo Ling was stunned, and Luo Tan opened her mouth wide in shock. Shen Qiu mmed the table and stood up. “What’s going on!”
The calmest one was Shen Miao.
However, on the surface, she looked calm, but her heart was in turmoil. She had long thought that Xie Jingxing would do this, but she did not expect him to dare to do it so tantly… Wait, how did he get Emperor Wen Hui to take the initiative to grant the marriage?
!!
As Shen Miao was thinking, Shen Qiu couldn’t wait to stand up and say anxiously, “Who is Prince Rui? How can a girl from Ming Qi marry someone from the Daliang Dynasty? Is the emperor crazy?”
“Qiu!” Luo Xueyan red at him. “Be careful with your words!” The walls had ears. The people of the royal family had spies everywhere. If Shen Qiu’s words were brought back to the pce, he would be severely punished.
Shen Qiu suddenly shut up and nced at Shen Miao. He scratched his ears and cheeks and said, “No matter what, Sister can’t marry that Prince Rui… Prince Rui, why is this name so familiar…” A thought shed across his mind and he suddenly pped his hands. “So it’s that person! I was wondering why the dignified Prince of the Daliang Dynasty would take the initiative to greet me. So he’s trying to get close to me for my sister. Damn it!”
Shen Xin frowned and asked, “You’ve seen Prince Rui?”
“Last time, on the way back to the mansion with Cousin Ling, I met him. He even invited me to his mansion to spar with him.” Shen Qiu said angrily, “If I had known that he was up to this, I would have cut off the horse’s leg and let him fall to his death!”
Shen Miao was speechless.
Luo Ling was also stunned. Then, he thought of something and looked at Shen Miao.
Shen Miao was puzzled by Luo Ling’s strange gaze, but she was not in the mood to ask. She only asked Shen Xin, “Is this an imperial edict issued by His Majesty? Why did His Majesty suddenly grant me a marriage?”
There were many girls in the Daliang Dynasty who were suitable for marriage. There were also a few princesses in the royal family who were at the right age. Shen Miao knew that this was Xie Jingxing’s idea, but she still wanted to ask how Xie Jingxing convinced Emperor Wen Hui.
Shen Xin looked at Shen Miao with a sad expression. He paused for a moment before sighing and saying, “Jiaojiao, I’m ipetent—” Only then did he slowly tell her what happened today.
It turned out that when Emperor Wen Hui was about to dismiss the court, he suddenly mentioned that Prince Rui of the Daliang Dynasty wanted to bring a princess consort back home. Some of the court officials were excited, and some were uneasy. Those who doted on their daughters naturally did not want their daughters to marry far away, and those who were ambitious wanted to make their daughter a princess consort.
Emperor Wen Hui did not give them a chance to speak and directly granted the marriage. The girl who was given the marriage was Shen Miao, the daughter of the mighty general, Shen Xin.
Everyone was stunned. They knew that Shen Miao was the apple of Shen Xin’s eye. Shen Xin was probably unwilling to let Shen Miao marry into the Daliang Dynasty. Now that Ming Qi needed Shen Xin, why would Emperor Wen Hui do something to displease Shen Xin at this time? Even the wise officials couldn’t understand what was on the mind of the emperor this time.
Shen Xin was naturally filled with anger. He wished he could draw his knife and cut off the throne room. He could tolerate all kinds of grievances, but he could not let his daughter suffer. This time, Emperor Wen Hui did not even discuss it with him and directly arranged a marriage for Shen Miao. This meant that the Shen family did not have a chance to object at all. If they objected, they would be disobeying the imperial edict and die.
