Chapter 547: Choosing a Marriage Partner
Princess Jeanne thought of the news she had found out earlier, that Xiao Jiuyuan's ugly fiancee had publicly demanded to cancel Xiao Jiuyuan's marriage again and again.
She could use this to slap Xiao Jiuyuan in the face, and Princess Joan Tuobazhen laughed.
In the hall, the banquet began soon.
The emperor took the wine glass and made a toast to the envoys of Beidi Kingdom, and said some polite words.
People from Beidi Kingdom also said some flattering words.
An atmosphere of joy in the hall.
At this time, Tuobaye, the prince of Beidi Kingdom, stood up, looked at His Majesty the Emperor respectfully and said.
"Following my father's will, we came to Dongli Country to discuss peace matters, and we also ask His Majesty the Emperor to agree to the peaceful alliance between the two countries."
The emperor was also interested in this, so when he heard Tuobaye's words, he immediately smiled and said, "I also have this intention. It is very good that the two countries will not meet each other, and the common people will also be spared the suffering of war."
Due to the perennial wars, Dongli Kingdom often recruits soldiers, and the people's wives and children are separated.
No one thought of the son at home anymore, and the husband went to the battlefield to kill the enemy.
The emperor's move won the hearts of the people, and the common people didn't understand that the wolfish ambition of Beidi Kingdom would never be extinguished.
In the main hall, Tuobaye spoke again.
"My royal father valued this alliance very much, so he specially sent me and my imperial sister to bring some ministers to Dongli. To show how much he values it, my imperial father specially issued an order to let my imperial sister Come to Dongli to marry and draw a happy ending for the alliance between the two countries."
In the hall, many people looked at Princess Tuobazhen. It was rumored that this Princess Joan of Arc from Beidi Kingdom was very smart, and they didn't know if the rumor was true or not.
If this princess is very smart, it may not be a good thing to marry in Dongli Kingdom.
Just as everyone was thinking, Tuobaye at the head of the hall suddenly spoke again.
"However, I hope that the marriage partner of my imperial sister will be chosen by my imperial sister herself."
As soon as this remark came out, the faces of the entire Dongli Kingdom became ugly, and even the emperor's complexion also turned ugly.
Because if Tuoba Zhen is allowed to choose, what if she chooses the prince?
Could it be that Dongli Congress will let people from Beidi be crown princesses? This is clearly impossible. .
The emperor at the top didn't speak, but glanced at Xiao Jiuyuan at the bottom.
Xiao Jiuyuan accepted the meaning of his brother, and immediately stood up and said coldly to Tuobaye on the opposite side.
"Tuobaye, you are too arrogant. It was you from the Beidi Kingdom who came to Dongli to discuss the peace, not me, Dongli, who rushed to the Beidi Kingdom to discuss the peace. Therefore, we, the people of the Dongli Kingdom, have the final say on who to marry. You, the people of Beidi Kingdom, have the final say."
It was a good idea, and let Tuobazhen choose the candidate. Needless to say, he knew who Tuobazhen would choose, and he would definitely choose the prince.
Regardless of whether the crown prince can succeed in the end, the position of crown princess will not be given to people from Beidi Kingdom.
After Xiao Jiuyuan's words fell, Tuobaye's expression on the opposite side was very ugly. If his own imperial sister hadn't warned him earlier, he really wanted to fight this guy.
"Is Prince Li's temper too irritable? I still have something to say below."
Tuobaye paused for a moment and suddenly thought of something and said: "Oh, I know, Prince Li is irritable and in a bad mood. It must be because he was recently divorced by his ugly fiancee one after another."
