Chapter 85
Prince Zhao nodded towards King Wu, and King Wu ordered the family members of the soldiers to be put in front.

They don't say much, and they don't say much.

"Auntie, Crown Princess is indeed not a title. She must be useful to my crown prince. As for what Zhiyun did for me, you can ask everyone."

After speaking, he and Xiao Zhiyun stood side by side.

The two of them faced the families of the soldiers.

"Today is the day for me to choose a concubine. Since Princess Qishan has objections to my decision, why don't you all tell me who is suitable to be the princess?"

Xiao Zhiyun looked at the soldiers below supporting their family members. Most of them were familiar faces, but she couldn't remember their names.

A soldier stood up, "I, Da Zhuang, only recognize Miss Xiao, and I don't recognize anyone else!"

As he said, he supported a girl, "I only know that I will marry whoever I like, and it won't work if my mother comes!"

Immediately afterwards, old man Xu leaned on crutches and said, "Miss Xiao, you are a good person!"

Xu Tai also said loudly: "After I joined the army, my family had many inconveniences. It was Miss Xiao who led someone to send my father a letter from home to make him feel at ease, and also left money for my father."

Speaking of money, Xiao Zhiyun felt a little embarrassed, it was given by Princess Gaomi, and she actually didn't have much money.

Just as she was about to explain, Princess Gaomi said, "That's right, Zhiyun doesn't even have any money, so she took it all out!"

Xiao Zhiyun turned her head to look, and saw Princess Gaomi winking at her.

And An Xiaoqiang said gratefully: "When we were in the southern border, Miss Xiao worked tirelessly to record our family letters, even ignoring drinking water. May I ask which girl can come to the southern border?"

Prince Zhao continued: "My aunt has stayed with Master Xue in the southern region, so she should know the hardships of the southern region?"

Princess Qishan stiffened her neck and said nothing.

That broken place in the southern border...

She said angrily: "Is she free to go to the southern border? Did my brother agree?"

Seeing Princess Qishan looking over, the old emperor said in a relaxed tone, "It's Zhen."

"Brother, she is the eyeliner arranged by Shanhe for you!" Princess Qishan blurted out.

But the old emperor changed his face.

It was cold in autumn, and there was no head covering in the barracks, so Xiao Zhiyun felt cold all over his body.

This layer of window paper is still pierced.

The old emperor said in a deep voice: "Zhi Yun never inquired about things in front of the imperial court, but only accompanied me to amuse and relieve boredom. When I was busy, she didn't even say a word. After Shanhe came back, she also resigned immediately. Ah Bao Where did this come from?"

"If she hadn't helped Shanhe, why would Shanhe take the position of crown princess to thank her? Brother, think about it carefully." Princess Qishan supported the old emperor's arm.

But the old emperor escaped.

He squinted at Eldest Princess Qishan, "It's Shanhe's intention, so why do you insist that there is a conspiracy in it? Alright, let the child's wishes go down."

Prince Zhao also bowed and said, "Auntie, did you misunderstand me? As I said, no matter who I marry, I will treat Ziyuan as my younger sister."

Princess Qishan said nothing with a gloomy face.

The old emperor continued: "Is there anyone else who wants to add something about choosing a concubine?"

After the old emperor finished speaking, Cheng Bingling said: "Miss Xiao sent home letters twice. At that time, there were bandits everywhere. She knew it was dangerous and sent us home letters. She even fell into a coma in the snow-capped mountains."

Cheng Xuetuan also said: "We will always remember the kindness of Sister Zhiyun and Brother Qimu in the past."

"Qi Mu? Ah Mu?" The old emperor frowned slightly.

Cheng Xuetuan nodded.

The old emperor lowered his eyes slightly, and looked at Prince Zhao after thinking about it, "Is the bandit all over the place leveled?"

"Most of them have been leveled, and the rest can be disposed of by local officials." Prince Zhao replied truthfully.

The old emperor breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good."

Seeing Xiao Zhiyun's voice so loud, the old emperor looked at Xue Zilian, "After listening for so long, what do you think of Miss Xiao?"

"I..." Xue Zilian carefully looked at Princess Qishan.

The old emperor said solemnly: "I'm asking you, what do you think A Bao is doing? Don't those who want to be a princess have even this little idea?"

Xue Zilian lowered her head, faltering and saying nothing.

After the old emperor sighed softly, he looked at Eldest Princess Qishan, "I know you're right, but she is Xue Yong'an's granddaughter, not a servant of your Xue family. Don't just focus on Ziyuan, the Xue family is a family of five." Lord Hou, the honor of the Xue family was won by their bloodshed and sacrifice together."

Princess Qishan naturally didn't dare to refute the old emperor's preaching, even if she was angry, she could only reply with a smile: "Look at what my brother said, what kind of person have I become? It's Zi Lian who is timid, and I usually don't lose my temper." protect her."

The old emperor didn't point it out, after all, he wanted to save face for Princess Qishan in front of so many people.

"Since Shanhe gave Yu Ruyi to Xiao Zhiyun, then Xiao Zhiyun is the Crown Princess." The old emperor said in a normal tone.

Seeing that things have come to this point, Princess Qishan smiled and said, "What about the side concubine?"

The old emperor glanced at Prince Zhao, "Let's talk about the side concubine later."

Seeing that Princess Qishan still wanted to persuade her, the old emperor looked at Xue Zilian and said, "After all, she is also the granddaughter of the Marquis of Yong'an, so let's make you a county lord, following your Weng Weng's name, Yong'an County lord."

After looking at the old emperor with teary eyes, Xue Zilian knelt down and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Princess Qishan still wanted to persuade her, but the old emperor thought of something again, "The little granddaughter of the Marquis of Ding'an might as well be the Junjun of Ding'an."

Seeing this, Eldest Princess Qishan could only shut up, in the Xue family, apart from her and her daughter, what other masters and lords are there.

With anger, she bent her knees slightly, "I still have something to do, so I'm leaving first."

The old emperor said in a very good mood: "Go, go."

After angering Princess Qishan away, the old emperor looked at Prince Zhao and Xiao Zhiyun, "The lovers finally get married?"

Xiao Zhiyun smiled embarrassedly.

Prince Zhao bowed and said, "Thank you, father, for making it happen."

Concubine Li, who was behind the old emperor, looked at Xiao Zhiyun and Prince Zhao with a bit of emotion on her face.

If the person she loved could...

Forget it, in his eyes, his country is more important.

After sighing in her heart, she just smiled lightly.

Perhaps, she loved the wrong person.

"Okay, you can do your own thing." The old emperor turned around and planned to lead Concubine Li away, but found her in a daze.

Concubine Li also came back to her senses immediately, her eyes lit up when she looked at the old emperor.

When the old emperor stretched out his hand, she hurried over to him, holding his arm with the other hand, looking very happy.

The queen didn't take it seriously, and helped the queen mother Xie Yu to leave.

Everyone also dispersed.

Cheng Xuetuan ran over and said happily, "Congratulations, Sister Zhiyun!"

Xiao Zhiyun stroked Cheng Xuetuan's hair, and smiled softly. The little girl had grown taller, showing a hint of maturity in her youthfulness.

But Cheng Xuetuan asked, "Why didn't you see brother Qi Mu?"

Xiao Zhiyun replied truthfully: "He traveled all over the world with Aunt Banyuan."
