Chapter 12 The Decree
"So what?" Hearing this name, Ji Ling's movements paused slightly, but only for a moment, he resumed his movements, but his face was as cold as ever.

Yes, what's the matter, isn't it that his mother and concubine once proposed marriage to Lu Junxian and asked to marry Lu Ruyi to him, but was rejected by Lu Junxian on the excuse that Lu Ruyi was still young? In fact, it was just that his mother and concubine wanted to win over Lu Junxian. He has never even met Ruyi, so he doesn't like him, so he can just refuse if he refuses, it's just that Lu Junxian is so ignorant of flattery, on the contrary, it will make things easier for him to do later.

But having said that, Lu Junxian was not the only one who dared to reject Ji Ling. Wan'er has been betrothed to someone, so she turned him away, it seems that there are a lot of people who dare not take Ji Ling seriously, but...

"Prepare the carriage, the king is going to the palace to face the saint." Ji Ling suddenly turned his head and said to Master Mu Hua.

"My lord is going to enter the palace?" Mu Hua raised his head slightly, and asked tentatively repeating Ji Ling's words, but Ji Ling didn't answer, and went straight back to his room to change his clothes.

"Do you want to bring the princess?" Mu Hua asked casually when he followed Ji Ling into the room and changed clothes.

"Why take her?" Ji Ling turned his head, replied coldly, straightened his clothes, turned and left the room.

"My lord, is my lord going out?" Ji Ling just went out, but bumped into Yu Qiaoyan who came to see him.

Although the palace is big, the women in the palace are all around Ji Ling, and his concubine Yu Qiaoyan is no exception. Although she came to this palace, she never kept him once. On the wedding night, It was also because he used being too tired as an excuse, so he fell asleep and ignored her, and later he didn't go to her place, but she came to see him every day when he came back in the morning, to ask for comfort, but the results were all the same. She was never discouraged by his indifference.

"Can't you?" Seeing Yu Qiaoyan who suddenly barged in, Ji Ling asked with a cold glance.

"How dare the concubine, it's just that the concubine wants to visit her mother and ask the prince to agree." Yu Qiaoyan lowered her head and said weakly.

Yu Qiaoyan has not been in the palace for a long time. When she came, there were already several women in Ji Ling's palace, but they all only had the title of madam. Ji Ling, the title of concubine, has always been vacant. The person I like, that's why I reserved this seat, but more than a month ago, the emperor suddenly asked his father to betroth her to Ji Ling, and took up the title of his concubine. The ones are colder and more promiscuous. He never refuses women, but he is also very cold.

"You can do whatever you want when you go back to your mother's house, you don't need to ask me, as long as you don't treat the palace as a market, you can come and go as you go." Ji Ling's words sound reasonable, but they are very ruthless. He doesn't care about the matter, as long as it doesn't damage the reputation of his palace.

"The concubine knows." Although Yu Qiaoyan was unwilling, she didn't dare to say more, she bowed her head in response, turned and left his room.

"My lord, the carriage is ready, do you think it's time to start?" Master Mu Hua asked Ji Ling softly after Yu Qiaoyan left.

"Give this king a betrothal gift at Dongfang's house." Ji Ling turned his head and told Mu Hua coldly.

When Mu Hua heard this, his eyes widened, and he said in surprise for a long time: "My lord is going to Dongfang's house to give a betrothal gift. Dongfang Wan'er has already been expelled from the house, and she came to this imperial city. Are you going to Dongfang's house to give a dowry gift?"

"Who said that this king is going to marry Dongfang Wan'er? This king wants to see if there are no women in this world except Dongfang Wan'er. There is also Dongfang Yan. This king wants to see what he is looking for this time." An excuse to reject me?" Ji Ling had a charming smile on his face, but with his words, Mu Hua felt nothing but cold.

Couldn't help but shudder all over, Mu Hua sighed silently for Dongfang Jun in his heart: "Dongfang Ju, it's not good for you to offend anyone, but you want to offend this evil star, and Dongfang Wan'er too, since you don't dare to decide what to do , just avoid him a bit, why do you have to run into him?"

"The lord means to give a betrothal gift, to accept Dongfang Li'er into the palace?" Mu Hua lowered his head and asked, even though he knew what to do.

"Does Dongfang Ju have any other daughters to marry?" Ji Ling glanced at Mu Hua coldly and asked back.

"Is the prince not afraid that he will marry Dongfang Li'er again?" Mu Hua raised his head and asked.

"Okay, I'm afraid that he won't do that, the idle food in the palace won't go moldy, and it doesn't matter if there are fewer food." Ji Ling said with a sneer.

"What does the prince mean?" Although Mu Hua was not stupid, he was a little confused by Ji Ling's words.

"You will know when the time comes, and you just have to do what I tell you now." Ji Ling replied lightly, without much explanation, and walked out with a pair of big white hands behind her back.

"The imperial decree arrives..."

It was another heavy snowfall. This winter not only came earlier, but also seemed to be colder than previous years. The snowfall was particularly heavy and heavy.

When I got up early in the morning, it was white again outside. The Dongfang family, with more than a dozen servants, was busy cleaning the snow in the courtyard of the mansion. There was a sound of decree coming from outside. It was too late to be surprised. A man dressed as an eunuch had already received Leading a group of officers and soldiers into the courtyard.

"The imperial decree has arrived, Dongfang Jun, Dongfang Lier will accept it." The man dressed as a eunuch walked to the courtyard and began to announce the decree loudly.

It has been many years since the Dongfang family moved out of the imperial city, and the current residence is about a day away from the imperial city. Since leaving the imperial city, the Dongfang family has lived a semi-reclusive life, basically not asking about court affairs, and the emperor has not called for many years Why did the imperial decree suddenly come again today, which made Dongfang Yan confused.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live." Although he was astonished, Dongfang Xun did not dare to neglect, and brought the whole family, and hurried to the courtyard outside the mansion, and knelt down in unison.

"Fortunately, the emperor called and said, Dongfang Li'er is virtuous and virtuous, and she is beautiful and refined. She is worthy of being a model woman. Today, I decree to marry her to King Ling and make her Mrs. Li. Dongfang Jun teaches her daughter well, and she will be rewarded with 500 silver coins." Two." The man dressed as an eunuch read the decree in a warm voice.

Hearing these compliments, Dongfang Li'er was so beautiful that she couldn't find her place in her heart. It wasn't those compliments that made her happy, but the astonishingly beautiful prince who was about to become her husband.

But Dongfang Xing was not as happy as she was, on the contrary, worry began to appear on his face.

"Dongfang Jun, Dongfang Lier, why don't you accept the decree and thank you soon?" After reading the decree, the eunuch folded his hands again, held the decree in one hand, hung it high above Dongfang Jun's head, and scolded coldly .

"Dongfang Xuan accepts the order."

"Long live the emperor, long live, long live." Although Dong Fangzhen was beating in his heart, he did not dare to disobey the emperor's imperial decree. He had to lower his head, raise his hands above his head, and catch the hot knife with his palms up. decree.

"Father, am I going to marry into Prince Ling's Mansion?" Although the imperial decree was in her hands, Dongfang Li'er still couldn't believe that she could marry that prince who is so beautiful that people can't move their eyes.

"Li'er, this is fate, you have to be careful when you get to the palace." Dongfang Ju was not as excited as Dongfang Lier, on the contrary, he still had a sad expression on his face.

"Father, wouldn't it be good to marry King Ling as his wife? King Ling is the emperor's eighth younger brother. I heard that when the late emperor was alive, he liked King Ling's mother and concubine very much, so King Ling was very much loved by the late emperor. Give it to him, maybe..." Dongfang Lier was obsessed with the joy of being able to marry Ling Wang, she didn't pay attention to her father Dongfang Jun's face, she kept talking more and more vigorously, only to be interrupted by Dongfang Jun.

"Li'er, when you marry into Prince Ling's Mansion in the future, you must always pay attention to your words and deeds. You won't feel like you are at home when you get there. Talking about the affairs of the court so unscrupulously will lead to death. Involve the Dongfang family." I have to say that Dongfang Ju is cautious, but he is also a person who only thinks about his Dongfang family. For the sake of the family's face, he will ignore even his daughter.

"Master, can you not marry Li'er?" Zhong Yue'e was also very worried, she didn't know much about court affairs, what she was worried about was Ling Wang Ji Ling's character, Dongfang Li'er was happy, she knew it, At the beginning, she had blocked Dongfang Lier's idea, but she didn't expect that Dongfang Lier only agreed to her superficially, and didn't mention it to Ji Ling, but Dongfang Lier herself didn't understand, this "good thing" she planned in every possible way , but it is just an opportunity for others to plot revenge.

"The imperial decree has already been issued, how can there be any changes?" Dongfang Xuan shook his head helplessly.

"Li'er, tell my mother honestly, did you and King Ling ask him to do that?" Although the situation was serious, Zhong Yue'e was very careful, and took Dongfang Li'er back to the room before secretly asking her about it. .
