Chapter 202 He Had No Choice but to Agree

After the palace banquet, King Zhenbei followed the emperor to the imperial study room to report on his duties, and reported one by one all the major and minor affairs in the Mianbei fief over the past two years.

The monarch and his ministers maintained just the right distance and sense of proportion. The ministers were courteous and the king was benevolent and righteous. There was no smoke in the whole process.

The emperor expressed satisfaction with the process of the conversation, and King Zhenbei expressed his peace of mind at the emperor's satisfactory attitude.

When the atmosphere was relaxed and joyful, the King of Zhenbei spoke at the right time: "I only have a concubine named Qi Lan. This year has been twenty-eight years, and I have not met a suitable son-in-law in Mianbei. This time I bring you to see the emperor. If the court is There is a suitable young upstart who is not yet married, and I am begging the emperor to give her a chance to get married. "

This sentence has lowered identity to the extreme.

When his legitimate daughter Qi Ying died, in order to show that he had no complaints against the royal family, he willingly sent his concubine to let the emperor make the decision. Although the concubine was worthless, what mattered was his attitude.

Secondly, since she is a concubine, she naturally does not dare to think about the princes, princes and other powerful people. If there are young ministers in the court, they can propose marriage, whether they are fifth or seventh rank, or if there is a suitable young master in the minister's family, he will not pick it. .

Thirdly, since it was left to the Emperor to make the decision, he also indirectly expressed that he was not standing behind any prince and was only loyal to the Emperor.

The emperor just smiled and said: "I will ask later to see whose young master has reached the marriageable age."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

The conversation between the monarch and his ministers finally ended.

In the evening, the King of Zhenbei resigned from the palace and went to the Jinjun Palace with his bodyguard. Chu Tianyin was resting in bed in the palace. When he heard the report from his servants, he said softly: "Take him to the study."

"yes."

A'dai served Chu Tianyin and drank the medicine, then whispered: "King Zhenbei brought his legitimate son Qi Yun. This is an opportunity for us, an opportunity to help the imperial concubine and the sixth princess recover from defeat. ”

Chu Tianyin drank the medicine and said in a gloomy voice: "What do you mean, let King Zhenbei propose marriage to Yiling for his son?"

"The Sixth Princess has been raised in Qingyin Hall for so many days, and her body and bones should be fine. However, the Emperor has never mentioned the Sixth Princess in these days. Even on the Queen Mother's birthday, he did not let the Imperial Concubine and the Sixth Princess come out to congratulate the Queen Mother. "It can be seen that the emperor's heart is as hard as iron." A'dai said in a deep voice, "For the present plan, only by letting King Zhenbei speak can the imperial concubine and the sixth princess regain their former glory."

As long as King Zhenbei succeeds in marrying the sixth princess, the emperor will definitely restore his status as a noble concubine in order to save King Zhenbei's face.

After all, Zhenbei Wang was a vassal king with a lot of troops. It was impossible for his legitimate son to marry a lowly concubine. His mother should be at least one of the four concubines.

In this way, even if Concubine Feng cannot be completely restored, it is very possible for her to be promoted back to the concubine position from Zhaoyi.

Chu Tianyin carefully stood up from the bed, letting Adai put on his robe, and twisted a wet towel to clean his face and wipe his hands.

"The King of Zhenbei may not agree."

Adai said: "Since he has come to this imperial city, he can't help but disagree."

Hearing this, Chu Tianyin looked at her deeply: "Adai, do you think I can sit in that position?"

"It's definitely possible." A'dai replied respectfully, "That position must be yours, and no one else can even think about it."

Chu Tianyin smiled: "You are right. No one can sit in that position except me."

With that said, he turned around and walked out of the room, and walked toward the study step by step with the help of the guards.

Adai was right. Now that the King of Zhenbei is here, he has to go into this muddy water or not. He has no choice.

King Zhenbei was sitting in the study at this time. He took the tea cup brought by the servant and turned his head silently to look at Chu Tianyin's study.

The door was open and had not been closed since he entered.

So when the guards helped Chu Tianyin come over, he soon heard the footsteps coming from outside, put down the tea cup, got up and walked out.

"His Royal Highness King Jin."

Chu Tianyin stopped, looked up at King Zhenbei, and bowed slightly: "Father-in-law."

"I dare not accept such a great gift from His Highness." Zhenbei Dynasty side avoided, "I really want to know what happened to Ying'er, and I hope Your Highness can tell you in detail."

"Father-in-law, please come inside."

King Zhenbei turned around and walked into the study. Chu Tianyin went in together and told the guards: "This king and my father-in-law have something to discuss in detail. No one will be seen, and no one is allowed to come even half a step closer to the study."

"yes."

Chu Tianyin raised his hand and closed the study door.
