The princess has a crow's mouth

Chapter 15 Cancellation of Marriage
Emperor Mingzong was silent for a while, then made up his mind.Turning to look at Eunuch Li, he said, "Go to Qin Tianjian and find Zhao Jianzheng."

Eunuch Li took the order and hurried out the door.After Eunuch Li left, Emperor Mingzong was not idle, and took advantage of this gap to write two imperial edicts.

One is for the Ye family, praise Ye Xin for being a woman with a true temperament!Reward a pair of jade bracelets, a set of face.The marriage contract between him and Li Wang was cancelled, and the marriage between men and women has nothing to do with each other.Ye Yuanan not only taught women well, but also devoted himself to his duties for many years, abided by his own responsibility, and devoted himself to the Ming Dynasty. He deserved to be rewarded, and he was specially named the Grand Master.

The other one was for Shangshu Zuocheng Yao Bing, who was ordered to take over as Shangshu of the Ministry of War.

After covering the jade seal, Emperor Mingzong's eyes darkened.Taking back his life and rewarding him will naturally restore his reputation, but Ye Yuanan and Ye Xin can't just let Ye Yuanan and Ye Xin count him out so easily!
Soon after the imperial decree was written, Eunuch Li came with Zhao Jianzheng.Emperor Mingzong interrupted Zhao Jianzheng's salute, and said, "Don't talk about these false rituals now! I have already thrown away the list from last time. Can Zhao Jianzheng remember any suitable candidates?"

Zhao Jianzheng replied respectfully: "Returning to Your Majesty, the women on the list of officials have excellent fates. But in terms of the most suitable one on the list, it is the Miss Ye family that His Majesty picked last!"

Hearing Miss Ye's words, Emperor Mingzong couldn't help frowning, and said displeasedly: "I don't think Miss Ye's fate is good! I don't have the good fortune to be Princess Li."

Zhao Jianzheng glanced at Jun Ruoli who was sitting there, bowed his head, and said to Emperor Mingzong: "Your Majesty, in fact, King Li has been ill and weak for a long time, and his fortune has already begun to decline. , it may change the appearance of decay. But it is also possible that the yin is prosperous and the yang is weak, and it is overwhelmed by the woman, but the decline is faster."

"Then what should you do?" Emperor Mingzong became a little irritable.A move that was planned in advance was disrupted like this, and now it is troublesome to deal with the aftermath, which is really annoying.

Zhao Jianzheng knelt on the ground, and said in a clear voice: "Your Majesty, the officials dare to speak recklessly. King Li should not marry a noble woman with great fortune, but a woman with poor fortune!"

When Su Xiaoxiao heard the words, she scolded Zhao Jianzheng for talking nonsense in her heart.A noble girl refuses to marry, she seeks death and life, so Jun Ruoli marry someone with a low life?It's ridiculous!Isn't this humiliating Jun Ruoli?Su Xiaoxiao didn't believe Zhao Jianzheng's calculations and words at all.If this Qin Tianjian can really watch the stars and test his fate, will any dynasty perish?It can be seen that the credibility is extremely low!
Before Emperor Mingzong could speak, Jun Ruoli asked, "Lord Zhao, how can we be regarded as poor fortune?"

Hearing Jun Ruoli speak, Su Xiaoxiao thought that he was going to have a verbal battle with this Zhao Jian.He silently cheered Jun Ruoli in his heart, hoping that Jun Ruoli would knock Zhao Jianzheng speechless.

Zhao Jianzheng replied respectfully: "No father, no mother, no relatives, no reason is for poor fortune, and poor and lowly people are for life."

Emperor Ming Zong heard the words and directly objected: "No! How could King Li marry such a woman?"

But Jun Ruoli smiled indifferently, and said with a little sarcasm: "I'm afraid no woman would like my broken body."

Su Xiaoxin sighed secretly, although Jun Ruoli was usually very annoying, she was not a person who committed serious crimes.He will not make things difficult for his servants, and will only occasionally fight wits and courage with her.He has the noble status of a prince, but he is dying, and his daughter-in-law can't get married...

Hearing what Jun Ruoli said, Emperor Mingzong couldn't help but say: "You are the honorable Prince Li of the Ming Dynasty, and it is a great honor and blessing to marry you. Qin Tianjian has picked out so many noble girls, and I will marry you." Believe it or not, none of them are suitable!"

Jun Ruoli refused: "I thank your Majesty for your kindness! But I am well aware of my own situation, and I would rather listen to Zhao Jianzheng and marry a woman who is unlucky and humble. I hope Your Majesty will approve!"

Emperor Mingzong looked at the persistent Jun Ruoli, sighed, and said, "That's all! I'm sure! Let Zhao Jianzheng pick it for you!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Jun Ruoli stood up with difficulty, and thanked Emperor Mingzong.

"Okay, just sit and talk if you have something to say, and you don't need to get up!" Emperor Ming Zong motioned Jun Ruoli to sit down, and continued, "It's harder to find a woman with a bad fortune and a low life than a noble woman with a good fate! I'm afraid it will cost a lot of money." Less time!"

Jun Ruoli replied: "I have just listened to Mr. Zhao's explanation. I have already chosen a candidate, but I still have a question in my heart. I want to ask Mr. Zhao for advice."

Zhao Jianzheng bowed respectfully, and said: "Ask for advice, but if you have any questions, feel free to ask. The next official will definitely know everything."

Jun Ruoli asked: "Lord Zhao said just now that having no relatives, no reason, no father and no mother is a blessing. If parents and relatives are still alive, but they are abandoned, is it considered a blessing?"

"If this is the case, it will be even more miserable than having no father and no mother." Zhao Jianzheng replied.

After hearing Zhao Jianzheng's words, Jun Ruoli said to Emperor Mingzong: "I have no doubts."

Emperor Mingzong asked: "Didn't you say that there is already a candidate? Tell me who it is!"

"Your Majesty, there is a maidservant in the minister's mansion who was sold to slave traders by her parents when she was a child. She has been in the palace for several years, and no one has made friends with her. Usually, there is no one to talk to, let alone any relatives. It is in line with Zhao Your Excellency's request!"

Hearing Jun Ruoli's words, Su Xiaoxiao felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave, and her whole body was chilled.But he was still comforting himself in his heart, maybe it was someone else!If it was really her, what did Jun Ruoli plan?
Emperor Mingzong still didn't believe it, and asked: "Is there such a person?"

Jun Ruoli nodded, and then said with a smile: "Perhaps it is destined, today I brought her into the palace."

As soon as Su Xiaoxiao heard this, she had no reason to comfort herself.The person Jun Ruoli mentioned is the one who is blessed and poor, and she is her!

Emperor Ming Zong put his eyes on Su Xiaoxiao and asked, "Is this the little maid that King Li is talking about?" She looked thin and small, and she couldn't see her face clearly.She was dressed in a light green maid uniform, not eye-catching at all.

Su Xiaoxiao knelt on the ground with a plop, and pressed her head tightly to the ground.Under Emperor Mingzong's gaze, Su Xiaoxiao couldn't help being afraid, and didn't know what to say.This is the king of this world, he can kill himself with a single word.

Jun Ruoli glanced at Su Xiaoxiao, who was kneeling on the ground, and replied: "Yes, Your Majesty. She is the minister's personal maid named Su Xiaoxiao. She was sold by her parents to a slave trader when she was young. She was bought by Housekeeper Zhu." After returning to the mansion, she has been doing some rough work in Xiyuan. Not long ago, the minister mentioned her as a personal maid."

Emperor Mingzong continued to look at Su Xiaoxiao, looking left and right, she was an inconspicuous low-class maidservant, and asked again: "Li Wang, are you really willing to marry her? If you don't want to, I can choose another noble maid for you." Girl! You don't have to wrong yourself!"

Jun Ruoli got up again, knelt down, and said firmly: "I am willing to marry her, and I don't feel wronged!"

Jun Ruoli's behavior this time gave Emperor Mingzong a false impression.It seems that Jun Ruoli is really thinking about Emperor Mingzong.

Emperor Mingzong closed his eyes and sighed softly: "Since you have decided to do so, I will allow you." Then he told Zhao Jianzheng: "As soon as possible, we will marry Li Wang and this servant girl, and choose an auspicious day to get married."

"My minister obeys the order!" Supervisor Zhao responded.

Jun Ruoli also thanked her. "I thank the lord Long En, long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live."

In this way, a decision was made, Su Xiaoxiao was going to marry Li Wang.

Su Xiaoxiao's fingers curled slightly, and she pressed hard on the floor.These few people made the decision for her on their own, and no one cared what she, a little maid, thought.So he never asked her a word, even treated her as if she wasn't there, and ignored her as a matter of course.

But what if you ask her?Don't say that she is a maid now, even if she is a princess, she still has to obey the emperor's orders.Thunder, rain and dew are all the grace of heaven.Could it be that she, a little Su Xiaoxiao, can be as long as she likes it, or if she doesn't want to!

Su Xiaoxiao couldn't help but smiled wryly, and said in her heart: "The floor of Qinzheng Palace is really cold! Not only is it so cold that my knee hurts, but also my heart hurts and my eyes are sore.'

Emperor Ming Zong looked at the three people kneeling on the ground, and ordered: "Since the matter has been settled, Zhao Jianzheng will go back to choose a date, and Li Wang will also go back to the mansion to wait for news!"

"I'm waiting to leave!" The two replied together.

Su Xiaoxiao got up from the ground, supported Jun Ruoli, and exited Qinzheng Hall together with Zhao Jianzheng.

After the three left, Emperor Mingzong handed over the two written imperial edicts to Eunuch Li, and asked Eunuch Li to go out of the palace to announce the edict.

Su Xiaoxiao helped Jun Ruoli out of the palace, and after getting into the carriage, she continued to shrink in the corner without saying a word.

Jun Ruoli was expecting Su Xiaoxiao's response, but never thought that Su Xiaoxiao would hide in a corner without saying a word.Jun Ruoli thought that there were servants outside the carriage, so she stopped talking.

The two were silent all the way, when they returned to Prince Li's Mansion, Steward Zhu and Nanny Jin were waiting for the prince respectfully at the door.

After Jun Ruoli got off the carriage, she ordered: "Housekeeper Zhu, find out Su Xiaoxiao's deed of selling herself, and go to the government office to cancel her slavery. Jinmao, send someone to tidy up a side room and give it to Su Xiao." Xiaoxiao. From today on, she is no longer the personal servant of the king, she is good to serve you, don't neglect her."

Steward Zhu and Nanny Jin were surprised in their hearts, and they couldn't help wondering what happened in the palace.But he had to press his mind down and obey Jun Ruoli's order.

Ye Fu
After Eunuch Li announced the imperial decree and left, Mrs. Ye couldn't help crying with joy, looked at Ye Yuanan and Ye Xin, and said: "Great! Great!"

Ye Xin stepped forward to hold Mrs. Ye's hand, said with a smile: "Mother, my daughter knows you are happy. But don't let the servants see the joke."

"Xin'er is right!" Madam Ye said, wiping the tears off her face with a handkerchief.She still couldn't restrain the joy in her heart, and held Ye Xin's hand tightly.Her daughter doesn't have to marry Li Wang anymore!The master has also been promoted, and now he is a second-rank official!
Although Ye Xin smiled on her face, there was no smile in her eyes at all.Ye Yuanan looked at the excited Mrs. Ye, and said in his heart: "Ignorant woman!"

Ye Yuanan didn't show any expression on his face, he just held the imperial decree tightly with his hands.

On the surface it seemed to be a happy event for promotion, but he knew that Emperor Mingzong had already feared him, and the position of Grand Master was just a vain position without real power.
