Chapter 222.1: 222.1
Chapter 222 . 1 A Marriage is Bestowed, Some People Are Happy and Some Are Sullen and Jealous Part 1/3
Zi You was elegant and refined . Her eyes that were like stars now seemed like a brush of the gods . She painted a gorgeous brushstroke in the luxurious palace hall .
She gently pursed her vermilion lips and asked, “Do any of you Shizis and gongzis know what Zi Yiu likes eating the most?”
The answers were varied . Ming Wang Shizi Shangguan Weiran replied, “It’s the pastries from the capital’s Babaozhai . ”
Duke Yongguo Shizi Zhu Likang replied, “It’s the food from the General’s Manor . ”
Finally, Shangguan LingRan (Yi He) replied, “It’s the Indian flat cakes your mother makes . ”
“How do you know?” Zi You looked at Shangguan LingRan in surprise . She really never told him this .
Yi He smiled bitterly . How do I know? My little Shishu told me this .
Indeed, Shangguan LingRan had secretly told Yi He this . He added, “The most memorable for a girl is of course the delicious food that her mother makes . ”
Actually, this was a little secret that Shangguan LingRan had found out in the welcoming banquet in the Indian God Realm .
His heart and eyes were full of Zi You, so his meal had been tasteless . He had seen Zi You eating countless fried, fragrant, and crispy flat cakes .
While she was eating, she had looked affectionately and smiled happily at Dier . Shangguan LingRan instantly understood that Dier had personally made them for Zi You . It was probably her most favorite food .
Sure enough, after she heard Yi He’s answer, she bashfully lowered her head and said sweetly, “An Wang Shizi is correct . ”
Then she quietly looked up at Old General Mu (Shangguan LingRan) .
Her eyes were tender like water and filled with thousands of affection . It made Shangguan LingRan’s breathing stifle and his heartrate accelerate .
He quickly stood up quiveringly . He cupped his fists at Xuanwu Emperor . “Then please bestow a marriage on Chen’s granddaughter and An Wang Shizi, Emperor! But Chen has a request . Pleae allow Chen to resign from Chen’s post and recuperate at home! Chen’s body can’t share your worries anymore, Emperor . Please forgive Chen!”
The Emperor was just worrying . An Wang held the military power of the north and Old General Mu held the military power of the south . How could he let these two families form a marriage alliance?
However, he had just said what he said . He couldn’t take his words back, right? Would it still be an imperial edict if he could take back what he said? Of course not . He would be scolded by the officials .
He didn’t expect that that dandy Shangguan LingRan could actually answer Mu Zi You’s question . How hateful!
Xuanwu Emperor was depressed, worried, and irritated . Just as he didn’t know what he should do, he heard Old General Mu say he wanted to resign from his post . He instantly became happy .
This old man Mu is really tactful . He knows what Zhen is worried about . That’s why he suggested it .
“Emperor . ” Xuanwu Emperor hadn’t reacted from his joy before Mu YingYi also stepped out and said, “Chen wants to resign from Chen’s post too . Pacifying the rebellion in Nanjiang has taken its toll on Chen’s body . Chen wants to recuperate for a while . ”
Although the Emperor was very happy to see both Old General Mu and Mu YingYi resigning, he knew he couldn’t allow it . If he did, it would be too obvious . Mu Zi You and the officials would be able to tell what he was thinking .
Mu Zi You’s identity was clear now . An Indian goddess was supporting her from behind . It wouldn’t be impossible for her to destroy his Great Yan Country .
He had to win her over and use her . If he was afraid that she and An Wang fu would collude, he just needed to tell Su cefei and Ning cefei to monitor An Wang .
Of course, he had to firmly control the idiot Shangguan LingRan too . That way, Mu Zi You wouldn’t be able to run away .
