Chapter 1412: Tragedy
Hearing Lin Yuelan's words, Xiao Jingyu didn't care at all. With a mocking smile on her face, she questioned," Haha, Lin Yuelan, I'm afraid this is an excuse for you to refuse this princess' marriage into the General's Estate, right?"
Then, her tone changed. She puffed her chest and said proudly," This is none of your business, Princess Guguo. In the future, we will be serving the same husband. Great General, please take care of me in the future!"
Regardless of whether Lin Yuelan agreed or not, the Emperor of the Longyan Kingdom had already rejected the marriage proposal of the Black Clouds Kingdom once. He could not reject another marriage proposal again.
Therefore, her marriage to Jiang Zhennan was already an ironclad fact.
Yuwen Longyan frowned slightly when he heard Xiao Jingyu making her own decision. He glanced at Lin Yuelan and Jiang Zhennan. Seeing their attitude, it seemed that they didn't take Xiao Jingyu seriously at all. His heart was slightly relieved.
To be honest, what was he most worried about?
It wasn't that the Black Clouds Kingdom would attack them immediately, nor was it that any prince or grandson would suddenly plot to usurp the throne. It was that Lin Yuelan had suddenly turned hostile and refused to do anything.
Why?
Of course, it was because he had placed his hopes of becoming a wise ruler and creating a peaceful and prosperous era on Lin Yuelan and Jiang Zhennan.
During his time in Taoyuan Village, he knew very well that Lin Yuelan definitely had more skills than this. She definitely had more skills that she hadn't shown yet. Otherwise, she wouldn't have accepted his invitation.
Therefore, no matter what others thought of him towards his adopted daughter, Lin Yuelan, he knew what he was doing.
Now that the two of them had no objections, he would not stop them.
However, he was also very puzzled. Would the Lan girl let Xiao Jingyu marry her fiance so easily?
Regardless of whether Xiao Jingyu could marry into the Defender General's Estate, with his imperial edict, Xiao Jingyu would be known as Jiang Zhennan's wife. Would this girl be willing?
Yuwen Longyan was very suspicious.
"Don't speak so early, Princess Linglong!"At this moment, Lin Yuelan said," You are not my man's wife yet. Please don't say those things!" Lin Yuelan said domineeringly.
No matter when Xiao Jingyu listened to Lin Yuelan's words, she would be so angry that her face would turn ashen. However, every time she was angered by Lin Yuelan's sharp words, she would turn ashen again. This cycle repeated itself.
However, this time, Xiao Jingrui took the initiative to help her without waiting for her to look at him for help.
Speaking of which, he wasn't helping her, but because he had his own considerations and plans.
Xiao Jingrui looked at Yuwen Longyan with a hint of threat. He said directly," Then, please issue a decree for the Longyan Kingdom and the Black Clouds Kingdom to become allies! The promise I made before is still valid! Within 30 years, the Black Clouds Kingdom and the Longyan Kingdom would become friendly and not invade each other!
He had to make Xiao Jingyu the official wife first!
Xiao Jingyu's eyes immediately lit up, and her expression suddenly became a little excited.
Xiao Jingyu naturally liked General Jiang.
Women, of course, were happy to marry the person they liked.
Hearing Xiao Jingrui say that the previous promise was still valid, the courtiers present were excited.
This was really a good thing.
In these 30 years, the Longyan Kingdom would not be harassed by the Black Cloud Kingdom. The Longyan Kingdom would be able to recuperate for the next 30 years. The people would also be free from the chaos and terror of war and could live in peace.
But at the same time, there was a kind of apprehension.
Just as they had thought before, the princess of the Black Clouds Kingdom could marry any man in the Dragon Banquet Dynasty. It could be His Majesty or the Crown Prince, but it could never be Jiang Zhennan.
What if they stole Jiang Zhennan's map?
All of a sudden, the officials were hesitating, not knowing what to choose.
But looking at Xiao Jingrui's tough appearance, they had to agree.
The ministers immediately looked at Yuwen Longyan with burning eyes. What decision would His Majesty make?
" There's no need to be so anxious." At this moment, Lin Yuelan spoke again.
When Xiao Jingyu heard Lin Yuelan's voice, it was as if she had heard a demonic voice. She was truly filled with hatred, shock, and fear.
"What do you want?" Xiao Jingrui looked cold and said," You know, you have already rejected this prince's marriage proposal, so it is impossible to refuse this prince's sister's marriage to General Jiang! Besides, this royal sister is only marrying General Jiang as an equal wife. It won't threaten your position as the main wife!"
