Chapter 283 Marriage
Taifu Zhou wiped the sweat off his face, and got up after confessing again.

"Your Majesty, I have no way to teach my daughter. I really have no face to stay in the palace. I will go back and think about my mistakes behind closed doors."

Zhou Qianrui was beaten like that, his old face was gone.

Let him stay for this welcome banquet, and say a few polite words to Shen Chengting, he really can't do it.

However, Emperor Ren did not agree with him to leave.

"I still know Taifu Zhou's loyalty, but your daughter is really spoiled by lawlessness."

"Teach me well after I go back, and then apologize to Shen Aiqing. As ministers of the same court, the two of you should not make too much trouble, let alone create a rift because of the child."

"Yes, yes, I have thanked the emperor."

Taifu Zhou sighed, and returned to his seat.

He and Shen Chengting's seats are one at the top and one at the top.

The atmosphere that followed was very lively. Except Zhou Taifu's party members, everyone respected Shen Chengting and raised their glasses to toast.

And those aristocrats admired Shen Chen very much, regarded Shen Chen as a benchmark in their hearts, and even kept toasting around Chen Chen, and asked for experience on the battlefield.

When Rong Zhan came, everyone had already drunk three times.

His little girl, sitting beside her elder brother, was eating obediently.

Although Shen Chen has been drinking, he still brings food to his younger sister from time to time, and Shen Zhi is also doing the same at the side, seeing the envy of many daughters from aristocratic families present.

How could Shen Tingxue have such a good life? She has a father who is a general and several good brothers.

Moreover, each of these elder brothers is prettier than the other, and it is quite pleasing to look at every day.

Shen Tingxue took a bite of the meatball, raised her head to meet Rong Zhan's smiling gaze, and immediately waved her little paw happily, as if to say, Thirteen, you're here.

The smile on Rong Zhan's face was even bigger. Seeing such a scene, several daughters of aristocratic families who admired King Dingbei stretched out their hands to cover their chests, their faces were covered with pain.

Those royal princesses kept staring at Shen Chen.

Especially the sixth princess Rong Yongle, this Princess Yongle's biological mother died young, and she was raised under the knee of the concubine Xian after urinating.

Although the birth mother's status is not high, but because of Xianfei, a high-status adoptive mother, she can be considered to have no worries about food and clothing in the palace and is respected by others.

Concubine Xian saw her daughter frequently looking at Shen Chen with a blush on her face, so she knew what her daughter was thinking.

It is naturally good to be able to win over the Shen family, so Concubine Xian took advantage of Emperor Ren's joy and smiled and said, "Major General hasn't engaged yet."

"Never."

Shen Chen replied two words with a calm expression.

Concubine Xian nodded with a smile, and then gave Emperor Ren a coquettish look, "Your Majesty, such a good young man as the Major General should naturally be matched with the best girl, and the Major General devoted himself to guarding the frontier and worked really hard. The Emperor should give the Major General A boon."

"Oh, what does Aifei mean?"

Rendi narrowed his eyes.

Concubine Xian followed suit, "Yongle has also reached the age of marriage, and my concubine dared to match the young general with Yongle. I don't know if the emperor can give this concubine this kind of grace?"

Concubine Xian connected her daughter with Shen Chen on the spot, which really made the queen and the other concubines very angry.

Who doesn't know that the Shen family is a piece of fat, and everyone hasn't eaten it yet, so why does your concubine Xian want to take the first bite when she's hungry?
Shen Tingxue was startled, and when she looked up, she saw Rong Yongle's face was bright, and she was staring at her brother with burning eyes.

And she also noticed the surprised look on the face of Princess Lin'an who was sitting aside, the handkerchief in her hand was almost torn by her.

Does everyone like her brother?
Emperor Ren took a look at Shen Chen with great interest, "This kid from the Shen family is indeed young and promising, and the princess who matches me is also suitable. I wonder what you think, Chen Chen?"

Rong Yongle's heart jumped, and he couldn't hide the shyness and joy on his face.

If the emperor said so, he must be willing to give the marriage.

"Thank you for your great love, but the frontier is still in chaos, the battlefield is extremely dangerous, and life and death are uncertain. If something happens to me in the future, it will also affect my wife and harm a good girl for nothing, so I have no plans to marry a wife in recent years. .”

Shen Chen bowed his hands and saluted, expressing his intention not to marry a wife.

The frontier has not been peaceful in the past few years, and the surrounding tribes often come to harass, and the relationship with Dongchen is still unknown.

He really didn't want to marry a wife, and he didn't want to hurt a good girl in future accidents, no matter who the girl was.

Rong Yongle's face darkened instantly.

Concubine Xian smiled and said: "The major general has a heart, but the major general has already reached the age of marriage. Although swords and guns have no eyes on the battlefield, the major general is an upright man with deep blessings. God will definitely bless you. Marriage is not a thing like this." drag."

"There are seven younger brothers under the Major General. If the Major General does not get married, I am afraid that the younger brothers below will not be able to get married."

"Your Majesty, worry too much, there is no such rule in our family."

Shen Chen's expression was indifferent, facing Xianfei's forced marriage, he didn't have the slightest intention of compromising.

Concubine Xian couldn't hold back her face.

After all, Rong Yongle is a noble princess, Shen Chen just refused, it was shameless.

"What does Shen Aiqing think?"

Emperor Ren smiled and glanced at Shen Chengting, his attitude was gentle and tight.

"Your Majesty, the dog is right. We are on the battlefield, and many things are still undecided. It is really hard to talk about getting a wife."

"The king's salary is worried about the king's worries. Even if the dog wants to get married, he has to wait for the frontier to stabilize."

Shen Chengting's refusal was more thorough.

Concubine Xian has always been prudent, but today she lost her sense of proportion, she frowned and said: "You can also get married first."

"Your Majesty, I have no intention of showing the princess, and I am ashamed of my love for my Majesty."

Shen Chen was a little annoyed by Concubine Xian's forced marriage, so he simply refused.

Rong Yongle stood up abruptly, watching in disbelief.

The rest of the princesses gloated over their mouths and laughed softly.

Especially Rong Yun'er, she didn't hide her ridicule towards Rong Yongle at all.

The Queen, Concubine De and others were also very happy.

Rong Yongle couldn't hold back, and ran out crying.

Emperor Ren frowned and shouted angrily, "There are no rules."

"The emperor forgives the crime."

Concubine Xian hurriedly stood up and confessed, resenting her adoptive daughter for being ignorant.

Was rejected by a man, and ran out in public, didn't the royal princess lose face?
Shen Tingxue has been observing Princess Lin'an, and found that after Shen Chen refused to marry, that Princess Lin'an's expression was obviously relaxed, and she even drank a glass of wine by herself.

Putting Shen Chen's marriage aside, Emperor Ren looked at Yang Shinan and Shen Ye and said with a smile: "General Yang and General Shen were both taught by Aiqing, I think they are good young people, they are not married yet. "

The two stood up immediately, "If you go back to the emperor, the last general has not yet married a wife."

Yang Shinan was about to repeat Shen Chen's remarks, but he didn't want Emperor Ren to suddenly say: "Shen Aiqing, your little girl has also reached the age of marriage, you finally came back once, and it's time to settle the child's marriage. It's fine if the girl is not a few years later than the boy."

"The girl's family is about the same age. I have thought about giving this child a marriage before, but I haven't found a suitable one, and I'm worried that Aiqing won't let it go."

"It's good to see these two generals today, and it's Shen Aiqing who is watching the grown-up children, how about Aiqing choose one of them, and I will marry them?"

Rendi's words immediately surprised Yang Shinan and Shen Ye.

The emperor is so kind all of a sudden?
However, Shen Chengting had a clear understanding of Emperor Ren's intentions.

Emperor Ren didn't want Shen Tingxue to marry Rong Zhan, but failed to match Shen Tingxue with others.

Now that Shen Chengting is back, he can't make things difficult for Shen Tingxue any more, just find any man, it's better to point it to Shen Chengting's confidants.

For Emperor Ren, as long as the Shen family does not get married with Dingbei Palace, anything is fine.

Shen Tingxue's eyes widened, and she anxiously looked at her father.

She knew that her father had always been dissatisfied with Rong Zhan's son-in-law, what if she really agreed?
Look at their family's Shisan's brows frowning, and they are so angry that they are about to kill someone.

What if he got angry and hacked the emperor to death on the spot, and became emperor?
So is she going to be queen tomorrow?

King Dingbei clenched the wine glass in his hand, looked at him with a stern look, and his murderous intent was getting stronger all over his body, as if he really wanted to kill Emperor Ren and ascend the throne himself.

"Your Majesty is concerned. This daughter is spoiled by me. I need to ask her opinion about the marriage."

"After the minister and the daughter are settled, I will definitely ask the emperor to marry me."

Shen Chengting stood up and saluted.

He really wanted to choose between Yang Shinan and Shen Ye.

But everything depends on the daughter.

What's more, it wasn't all for this that he brought the two back this time.

Emperor Ren's expression froze, he couldn't maintain the expression on his face, and a burst of anger ignited in his chest.

He has retreated to such an extent, Shen Chengting is still not satisfied?
It seems that he shouldn't have asked Shen Chengting's opinion, and just let someone else marry Shen Tingxue.

Seeing this, Yang Shinan immediately cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, Ninth Sister is indeed a good girl, but the last general and General Shen have always treated Ninth Sister as their own sister."

Shen Ye nodded immediately, "As General Yang said, the end general has known Ninth Sister since childhood, and has been loving her as his own sister all these years. I am really ashamed of the emperor's grace."

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Emperor Ren's face was very ugly.

Shen Chengting didn't give him a step down.

So Yang Shinan and Shen Ye had no choice but to stand up and smooth things over.

Emperor Ren gave the two of them a cold look, wanting to get angry but reason still defeated the anger.

The next moment, Emperor Ren put away the anger on his face, and smiled gently, "I'm just asking, if you don't have that meaning, that's all. Everyone who is so nervous should sit down."

"Today is Shen Aiqing's reception banquet, I am happy, all of you give me a few more drinks."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

This is how the matter of giving the marriage ended.

Unexpectedly, the queen interjected, "General Shen is too used to Shen Tingxue. Marriage matters have always been the orders of parents. How can a child decide?"

This means that Shen Chengting doesn't understand the rules, and it's really a joke to leave the marriage to his daughter.

Everyone looked in surprise, the empress really hated the Shen family, she would pick faults whenever she had the chance.

Hearing this, Shen Chengting smiled faintly, "My wife left early, and the family is full of kids. It's only right for such a girl to be pampered."

"The emperor even agrees with the subject to discuss with the little girl, what does the empress think?"

The queen's complexion changed, and she knocked over the wine glass in her hand angrily.

Emperor Ren frowned and said displeasedly: "Queen, you are the empress of a country, why are you so disrespectful?"

This accusation is already heavy, after all, in front of so many people, it is clearly slapping the queen in the face.

"The emperor forgives the crime."

The queen hurriedly stood up and confessed.
