Chapter 394: Granted Marriage 2
"Oh?" The emperor was immediately interested when he heard it: "I wonder which one the queen likes? The queen accompanies me in the Purple Palace every day and has no time to contact the ladies outside the palace. Could it be that the person she likes is in this palace?"
Queen Wei smiled and replied: "That's right. Speaking of which, the emperor is also very familiar with this person. Back then, I was in charge of the palace affairs for the first time, and I was short of people around me. I had to shamelessly ask the emperor to bring her over."
"In the past two years, she has been indispensable to me. I like her intelligence and understanding, and I also like her beauty. She is a lady from a famous family, with outstanding talent and appearance. She is worthy of A Yan!"
Queen Wei did not say the name exactly.
However, the emperor only heard the first two sentences and knew who this person was.
Ling Jingshu!
Unexpectedly, the person Queen Wei likes is her!
The emperor frowned subconsciously.
Ling Jingshu is indeed nothing to complain about. But no matter what, he had been attracted to Ling Jingshu, and he was almost taking her into the harem...
Now that Queen Wei was about to grant Ling Jingshu and Wei Yan a marriage, he felt uncomfortable.
Thinking about it carefully, it was not so difficult to accept.
Now he was like a dead wood, and he could only rest and prolong his life for a few more years! He had long since lost interest in women. Such a beautiful and intelligent girl, staying in the palace would only delay her marriage.
Since Queen Wei liked her to be her brother's wife, she would let Queen Wei do it.
The emperor made up his mind and was about to nod.
Unexpectedly, Wei Yan frowned and said, "Lady Ling is the most useful person around the Queen. How can I take away the Queen's favor? Let's forget about this marriage!"
Queen Wei quickly understood Wei Yan's intention of "retreating to advance", frowned very cooperatively, and looked at the emperor with some grievance: "Your Majesty, you should have seen it with your own eyes this time. Every time I mentioned marriage to him, he always found an excuse to shirk it. I, as the eldest sister, can't do anything about him."
The emperor felt sorry for Queen Wei and immediately frowned: "Wei Yan, the Queen and I personally arranged a marriage for you, you What else are you dissatisfied with? If you dare to refuse again, it will be disobedience! Do you really think I can't do anything to you? "
Wei Yan knelt down helplessly and pleaded guilty: "I dare not."
The emperor snorted: "What else do you dare not do? The queen has been worried about your marriage for many years. You are so good, relying on the queen's favor, you don't take the queen's words to heart. I will take care of this matter today!"
"Just follow the queen's words and marry Ling Jingshu to you. Pick an auspicious day before the New Year to get married!"
Once the emperor spoke, there was no possibility of changing this matter.
Wei Yan suppressed his ecstasy and thanked him in a low voice.
This marriage was ordered by the emperor himself. Even if the emperor realized what was going on in the future, it would be difficult to pursue it!
"You stinky boy, such a beautiful and intelligent girl is betrothed to you, what else can you be reluctant about. "The emperor had no grudges in his heart and joked with a smile.
Wei Yan hesitated for a moment before he responded: "Your Majesty, I have been living in the Imperial Hospital for so many years. I have never bought a house outside. Your Majesty ordered me to get married before the end of the year, so I have to settle down in the capital before getting married. I am afraid I can't make it in time."
The emperor laughed: "It turns out to be such a small matter. How difficult is it! You have taken good care of me for so many years and saved the prince's life, but I have never rewarded you. This time, I, as your brother-in-law, must show some appreciation during your wedding."
"I will reward you with a house near the palace. The renovation and cleaning will be handled by the people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs. You just need to wait for your wedding and become the groom."
The capital is very expensive, and the high prices are shocking.
With Wei Yan's wealth, it is not difficult to buy a house. However, it is indeed difficult to choose a place near the palace in a few months.
The emperor not only gave the house as a reward, but also took over the renovation of the house. It was really a pleasant surprise.
Wei Yan hurriedly thanked him again and let himself show his joy.
The emperor saw it and thought that he had succeeded in "forcing marriage". He also proudly asked Queen Wei for credit: "Queen, how did I handle it? Are you satisfied?"
Queen Wei was grateful and moved: "Your Majesty treats A Yan so well, and you are also giving face to me. I don't know how many lifetimes I have cultivated to be so kind to the emperor."
The emperor smiled and responded gently: "It is my blessing to have the queen accompany me."
Queen Wei smiled shyly and quickly exchanged a knowing look with Wei Yan.
Great!
Finally got what I wanted!
Finally did not let down the patient and forbearing waiting for two years!
...
Ling Jingshu, who was waiting outside the bedroom, was chatting with Xinyun in a low voice as usual. She had no idea what was happening in the bedroom.
Eunuch Ding came out with a smile on his face, and said with a meaningful smile: "Lady Ling, the emperor and the queen have summoned you to come in. They have important matters to tell you."
Ling Jingshu didn't care, smiled and nodded, and then followed Eunuch Ding into the bedroom.
She followed Queen Wei every day and had long been accustomed to Queen Wei's summons at any time. She never thought about what would be waiting for her.
It was not until after the ceremony that he saw the uncontrollable joy in Wei Yan's eyes and the dazzling smile on Queen Wei's face that even the emperor was rarely interested.
Ling Jingshu just realized something was wrong.
What's going on?
What's so exciting?
"Jingshu, you are seventeen this year, right?" Queen Wei asked with a smile.
Why would she ask about her age?
Ling Jingshu's heart moved, and she had a vague premonition: "Yes, I turned seventeen two months ago."
"I remember that when you entered the palace, you were not yet of age. In a blink of an eye, you have been in the palace for more than two years." Queen Wei smiled: "A girl's youth can't stand delay. I can't bear to see you wasting time in the palace. So, I want to arrange a marriage for you, I wonder if you are willing?"
... Arranged marriage? !
It was really an arranged marriage!
At this moment, she didn't know how many times she had imagined it.
At this moment, it was like a dream, everything was so beautiful, so unreal.
Ling Jingshu's hands trembled as she tucked them into her sleeves. She tried her best to suppress the urge to look up at Wei Yan, and replied softly, "Everything is up to you, Your Majesty."
The Queen Wei's voice sounded leisurely, "My brother Wei Yan is a skilled doctor, handsome, and a pure and kind person. I'm marrying you to him. Are you willing?"
