Chapter 298 Finally got married
Xiao Jingchuan had been waiting at the city gate. When he saw the figure he had been thinking about day and night, a smile flashed in his eyes, his face was full of joy, and his pace involuntarily quickened.
When had Xiao Jinrui ever seen Xiao Jingchuan so eager? He immediately became alert. It seemed that Xiao Jingchuan was determined to win the princess of Nanmo Kingdom! But wasn't he deeply in love with Jiang Shuyu? In the past, he had made many calculations to marry Jiang Shuyu. Now it seemed that his sincerity was just that.
Thinking of this, Xiao Jinrui's eyes flashed with regret. He thought he could appease Jiang Wanrong and let her agree to give up the position of Princess Rui, and then compensate her after he ascended the throne. Unexpectedly, she disagreed with him doing so. Not only did she ask her mother to be her backer, but now Nanny Yuan was serving Jiang Wanrong and directly promoted her. Now that Jiang Wanrong was famous, he had no choice but to give up the princess of Nanmo Kingdom.
However, what he couldn't get, he naturally wouldn't let Xiao Jingchuan get. After all, although he already had a wife, his father had already granted Xiao Jingchuan a marriage. If Xiao Jingchuan wasn't in Kyoto, they would have been married long ago, so now he could also compete for it.
Seeing Xiao Jingchuan stepping forward, Xiao Jinrui hurried forward and called out to him:
"My royal brother, you are so anxious, but you are worthy of Jiang Shuyu's sincerity towards you! She has waited for you for such a long time, but after my royal brother came back, he did not go to visit her, but instead coveted the princess's beauty. Such a heartless behavior is really despicable!"
Listening to Xiao Jinrui's indignant words, everyone looked at Xiao Jingchuan with complicated eyes.
Xiao Jingchuan looked at his angry expression, his eyes full of surprise. He didn't know when he became so righteous. However, no matter how he provoked, it would not affect his relationship with Yu'er at all. He just didn't know if he would still be so gloating when he knew that Yu'er was the princess of Nanmo Kingdom! Thinking of the past, Xiao Jingchuan's eyes sank, and the trace of brotherhood he had for Xiao Jinrui disappeared.
"Step aside!"
Seeing the fierceness in Xiao Jingchuan's eyes, Xiao Jinrui unconsciously took two steps back. Watching Xiao Jingchuan stride away, Xiao Jinrui's eyes were full of sinisterness. This time, he would never give in!
Jiang Shuyu walked down slowly with the support of Le Shi. As early as when Xiao Jingchuan came over, Jiang Shuyu had already noticed him. Seeing Xiao Jingchuan slowly walking over, Jiang Shuyu's eyes flashed with joy.
Xiao Jingchuan looked at Jiang Shuyu staring at him with sharp eyes, and couldn't help but feel his face getting hot, with a smile in his eyes:
"The emperor has been waiting for a long time, let's go back to the palace first!"
Listening to Xiao Jingchuan's words, Jiang Shuyu suppressed the strangeness in her eyes and nodded in agreement. A lot of things had happened during this period, and she should explain these things in detail. She just didn't know if these things would bring them trouble.
Xiao Jingchuan was naturally aware of Jiang Shuyu's concerns. He looked at her and comforted her, "Don't worry. I've already explained everything to Father. He promised not to pursue the matter further. He has also agreed to Nanmo Country's conditions. Now it's just a formality. I'll take care of everything!"
Seeing the smile in Xiao Jingchuan's eyes, Shuyu suddenly felt inexplicably relieved, and then followed Xiao Jingchuan towards the palace.
Seeing how familiar Xiao Jingchuan was with the princess of Nanmo Kingdom, Xiao Jinrui suddenly felt like he was facing a powerful enemy. It then occurred to him that Xiao Jingchuan had lived in Nanmo Kingdom for a period of time, so it was reasonable for him to be on good terms with the princess of Nanmo Kingdom now. But if that was the case, then did he still have a chance?
Watching Xiao Jingchuan and the other person leave together, a hint of doubt flashed in Xiao Jinrui's eyes. What is certain is that he has never seen the princess of Nanmo Kingdom, but looking at her back as she left, he felt inexplicably familiar, as if he had seen her somewhere. Watching the two of them walking away, Xiao Jinrui felt a little panic in his heart, as if something had slipped out of his control, making him feel powerless.
Emperor Shunqing sat in the hall, watching the discussion below getting louder and louder, and he couldn't help but feel drowsy. As early as when he issued the decree, he had already anticipated their reactions, but he didn't expect them to react so strongly. If he hadn't promised Nangong Mo long ago, he would have been shaken.
However, he really had no reason to refuse. Whether it was for his son or for the development of Dongli State, it would not harm them at all. Moreover, he had already issued an edict to grant them a marriage. Now he was just letting nature take its course. No matter how the people below discussed it, Emperor Shunqing remained unmoved.
After hearing the eunuch's message from outside the door, Emperor Shunqing finally opened his eyes, a hint of excitement flashing in his eyes. Perhaps in his lifetime, he could still see the grand scene of the unification of the world.
"The Princess of Nanmo Kingdom has come to the palace for an audience!"
"Xuan!"
As Emperor Shunqing finished speaking, everyone turned around and saw Xiao Jingchuan and the other person slowly walking in from outside.
Emperor Shunqing looked at Xiao Jingchuan and the other man walking towards him, his face full of smiles. Seeing them bow and greet each other, Emperor Shunqing finally came to his senses and asked hurriedly:
"Stand up! Fate brings us together even though we are thousands of miles apart; fate does not bring us together even though we have met. You two have gone through so many hardships, and now you are finally together. I am so pleased! In the future, I hope that you two can tolerate each other and grow together, so that the people of the world can live and work in peace and contentment, and have enough food and clothing. This is my greatest expectation for you!"
Jiang Shuyu didn't expect that before she started to face the storm in the court, Emperor Shunqing had already calmed down. Jiang Shuyu couldn't help but look at Xiao Jingchuan. Seeing his doting face, Jiang Shuyu finally reacted and felt unprecedented satisfaction in her heart. With such a husband, what else could a couple ask for?
When Xiao Jinrui came over, he found that the princess of Nanmo Kingdom was actually Jiang Shuyu. This surprised him. He didn't know how she could be the princess of Nanmo Kingdom. Thinking of the purpose of the princess's visit, Xiao Jinrui's heart tightened. Before he could react, Emperor Shunqing looked at Xiao Jingchuan and the others and said:
"Since you two are already engaged, let the Imperial Astronomical Observatory choose an auspicious date for your wedding."
Listening to Emperor Shunqing's words, Xiao Jingchuan was overjoyed and looked at Jiang Shuyu beside him. He finally got this day.
Xiao Jingchuan was so ecstatic that it was hard to ignore him. Feeling the fiery gaze beside her, Jiang Shuyu couldn't help but blush and hurriedly tugged at Xiao Jingchuan's clothes. Xiao Jingchuan then came to his senses and hurriedly pulled Jiang Shuyu to verbally thank him:
"Thank you Lord for your grace!"
