Chapter 277: Princess Wen Yi is betrothed to the King of Qin
Empress: "..."
After hearing what Eunuch Gao said, she felt a little bit upset.
Marry his sister Princess Wen Yi to Li Jize?
Ah no!
Li Jize was her childhood sweetheart and her fiancé back then. How come after all these twists and turns, he became her brother-in-law?
Thinking of this, the empress was a little annoyed. "Why let Wen Yi marry down? Can't we...can't we...find a princess from a side branch to replace her?"
In fact, what she wanted to say was, It’s not impossible for me!
But if you say that, how embarrassing and awkward it would be, right?
As an emperor, and a female emperor at that, how could she have the nerve to say such things?
As a result, the words that the empress was too embarrassed to say out loud made Eunuch Gao dumbfounded and confused on the spot.
Ah this...
What the hell is this?
"Your Majesty, the barbarians are said to have a real princess. Wouldn't it be a shame for us to have a princess? And the most important question is, shouldn't we tie Li Jize firmly to our chariot?"
Eunuch Gao's response to the Empress's words was really a bit confusing, okay?
The Sixth Prince of the Barbarians did this because he wished Li Jize to become his brother-in-law and become a family member.
With this blood relationship, Li Jize is in the same boat and he has no choice but to help his own family.
What's wrong with this empress?
So petty!
What's more, Princess Wen Yi is in Li Jize's hands. Since you can't get her back anyway, why not "make use of the waste"?
The empress was still somewhat unwilling to give up after hearing this. She looked at Eunuch Gao and couldn't help but ask, "Li... Li Jize is already married. How can he marry the princess? Wouldn't that make the whole world laugh at him?"
Ok?
Eunuch Gao widened his eyes. What a despicable person!
Your Majesty, would you please listen to what you are saying?
If this were in the past, during the heyday of the dynasty, you wouldn't care about saving face.
Now the Great Qi is in decline, and the princess has become someone else's "hostage". Not to mention that Li Jize already has a wife, you have to be willing to be his concubine.
"Your Majesty! For the sake of our ancestors' country and the great Qi, what can't be sacrificed?"
"..."
Eunuch Gao's last words were the prerequisite for the empress to completely realize the truth.
She suddenly became emotional, her body trembled, and she sat up straight with her eyes wide open.
"Yes! The kingdom of Da Qi is the most important. What else can I not sacrifice? As long as I can protect the foundation of my ancestors and recover the homeland of Da Qi, everything can be sacrificed."
Thinking of this, the empress no longer hesitated and gritted her teeth, "I! It's approved!"
Just like that, the Jiman people sent envoys to propose a marriage alliance with Li Jize and marry Beiji.
On the southern court side, the empress also issued an imperial decree to recruit Li Jize as her "brother-in-law", and Princess Wen Yi directly married Li Jize.
……
Qingzhou, Prince Qin's Palace.
The imperial edict from the south had not yet arrived, but Li Jize had already received the news that the empress had done such a cruel thing.
I rub!
Princess Wen Yi Zheng Zhizhi?
You have to know that when the city was broken, she was only 14, and now after three years, she is only 17 years old!
He was still a minor during Li Jize's time.
This……
Isn't this a bit crazy? How shameless!
When Li Jize saw this information, he really didn't know what was going on in the empress's mind.
After getting the information, Li Jize was undecided and looked directly at everyone, asking what they meant and how they viewed this matter.
Who would have thought that everyone's answer was the same: obey the imperial decree! Marry Princess Wen Yi, Zheng Zhizhi.
Ok?
Li Jize looked at his subordinates in disbelief. Why did they let him do such an evil and shameless thing?
The answer is very simple...
Since you, Li Jize, have great ideals and have taken up the banner of the nation, you can even submit to the Southern Court for your ultimate ideal.
Now you are the son-in-law of the emperor, and you also hold the position of the commander-in-chief of the army, as well as a base, troops, and weapons. In the future, you can replace him anytime and anywhere, which is reasonable, legal and in accordance with the rules.
No one will say you are not right from now on!
Let me say something unpleasant. Even if Li Jize didn't want to rebel, if the empress fell into the water or the ship sank, her sister Zheng Zhizhi would smoothly become the next empress. And as the "imperial prince", Li Jize would have no choice but to rule the world.
I have to say that power is very tempting, and the little loli Zheng Zhizhi looks quite tempting too.
Li Jize: "..."
After everyone analyzed all the pros and cons, the King of Qin fell silent.
From this perspective, there doesn't seem to be any problem in marrying Zheng Zhizhi!
What will happen if there is only one "yin-yang face" in the family?
She had always wanted to join the rebels. If she knew that Li Jize and the princess were married again, would she...
Faced with the chattering and discussions of the crowd, Li Jize simply raised his hand and signaled everyone to quiet down.
He frowned and thought for a moment, then looked at everyone present and replied calmly, "Let me think about this matter again, think about it again..."
Everyone is looking at each other.
They really couldn't understand what was so good about this matter!
Princesses are so beautiful and wealthy, but the hag at home is so ugly?
Secondly, Wang Yuanya is just the daughter of an imperial physician, even if she has a relationship with the rebel army.
But how can she compare to a princess?
She is not even as good as the barbarian princess A'hai, so naturally the princess should be chosen, and at best she should be given the position of a concubine.
Li Jize was a little troubled at the moment. On the one hand, as a modern person, the system of monogamy made Li Jize feel that this was not a good thing. On the other hand, it was naturally the impact of the reality of values!
Isn't he a bit too cruel to an underage girl or princess?
but……
On the other hand, from the perspective of today's era, it is completely reasonable, legal and logical, right?
Moreover, Chen Yingyuan and his colleagues were right in their analysis: marrying a princess would bring him enormous benefits and huge political capital.
Regarding Wang Yuanya...
Her only political capital is that she can connect with the rebels!
In fact, this relationship is still hidden and cannot be made public.
If you, Li Jize, are the King of Qin and the Grand Marshal of the Armies of Great Qi, yet you are flirting with rebels and marrying a woman who is also a rebel, how will others view you? What will they think of you?
"Ugh!"
Li Jize sighed and felt really troubled. He raised his head and saw Wang Yuanya staring at him.
