Divorce at the beginning, the rough general is very clingy

Chapter 133: Ministers Request to Marry Night Owl

Today, Prince Gong, Prince Yong, Prince Jing and some other veteran princes also attended the event. As the greatest contributor to this battle, Ye Xiao naturally attracted everyone's attention. Those unmarried young ladies stared at the handsome Ye Xiao with their eyes wide open and their cheeks blushed. Unfortunately, Ye Xiao was not interested in them. Even the Sixth Princess' heart beat wildly when she saw the handsome Ye Xiao.

Since the tumor on Prince Gong's neck was cured by Mi Yao, he was in a better mood, slept better, and ate better. Every day he went fishing with old friends, drank tea, listened to music, and played chess. His life was fully arranged and his happiness index soared. Some people asked who cured Prince Gong's illness. After all, it was incredible that a folk doctor cured a disease that even the imperial doctors in the palace were not 100% sure of curing.

People who eat a variety of grains will inevitably get sick, so everyone wanted to ask Prince Gong which famous doctor cured him.

Prince Gong described Mi Yao's general condition. Everyone was shocked to hear that it was a young woman who cured Prince Gong, but they also said they would visit this young woman when they had time.

Prince Gong was busy and enjoyed himself every day, while the men of the Zhan family were busy and learning in shock, because after taking the elixir that Mi Yao gave them before leaving, they and their children felt obvious changes in their bodies, their minds became more agile, their speed of movement improved, and even their thinking became faster. Especially Zhan Xun, Prince Gong's old son, who was a leader among his peers in music, chess, calligraphy, painting, horse riding, archery, and both civil and military skills. After using Mi Yao's elixir, Zhan Xun's strength was improved, and even his eyesight and hearing became much sharper.

The brothers and some younger generations often discuss their learning experiences together, and everyone admires Mi Yao's strength.

Prince Gong and his eldest son Zhan Jian came to the palace for a banquet today. There is no war on the eastern border, so Zhan Jian can stay in Beijing for a while longer.

"Dad, I think General Ye looks familiar, and his eyes and eyebrows are somewhat similar to my second brother." Zhan Jian said in a low voice.

Prince Gong had discovered this a long time ago, and thought he was valuing talent, or maybe he had drunk too much and his vision was not clear, why did he feel that this young general was somewhat similar to his deceased wife.

"A bit like your mother." Prince Gong took another sip of wine.

After hearing this, Zhan Jian thought about it carefully. His mother had passed away twenty years ago. It was not that he was unfilial, but he seldom thought of her. Now that he thought about it, he felt that General Ye was indeed very much like his mother, even more so than his second brother.

"Dad, do you think it was a coincidence?" Zhan Jian asked.

"I don't know either." After all, there are many people in this world who have no relatives but look alike. But when he thought of his third son who had no resemblance to himself and his old wife, Prince Gong shuddered. How could he think like that? Xun'er, that child, is his son even if he doesn't look alike, if he studies hard and has good literary and military skills. He should never have such thoughts in the future.

"What's wrong? Are you interested in that young general?" Prince Yong laughed at the side.

Prince Gong quickly withdrew his gaze, realizing that he had lost his composure.

"There are many granddaughters in the family. What if they become a family?" Prince Gong said with a smile.

"Hey, third brother, I was the first one to take a fancy to that young general. My family has two granddaughters who are about to get married, so I have decided on this young general first." Prince Yong said domineeringly.

"You decided it first. Ask the young general if he agrees. He is not without background. He is from the Anhe Marquis' Mansion. Although the position of crown prince was given to the second wife, he is still the eldest son of the Anhe Marquis' Mansion." Prince Gong said with a smile.

"Of course I know that, but people go to high places and water flows to low places. How do you know that someone doesn't want to marry my granddaughter?" Prince Yong said.

Prince Gong did not say anything because other ministers also had their eyes on Ye Xiao. Unable to resist his wife's instigation, he actually asked the emperor to grant the marriage on the spot.

"Your Majesty, General Ye and I get along very well. My daughter is seventeen years old, and I want to marry her to General Ye. I hope Your Majesty will grant the marriage." The speaker was the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, a third-rank official, while Ye Xiao was the General Zhenxi, a fourth-rank official. So the Shaoqing of Dali Temple had a higher rank.

"Haha, this is a good thing." Emperor Dongqi was also very happy. The Shaoqing of the Dali Temple was his confidant, and Ye Xiao was a rare military talent. He admired him very much, otherwise he would not have exiled Ye Xiao instead of killing him when the evidence was conclusive.

"Your Majesty, General Ye is young and promising. My daughter is sixteen years old and is proficient in playing the piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry and songs. I also intend to establish a friendly relationship with the Anhe Marquis' Mansion." The speaker was an official from the Ministry of Personnel, who was also a third-rank official.

As soon as he finished speaking, two more officials proposed marriage for his daughter.

Emperor Dongqi initially thought that this celebration banquet would be a good thing if the marriage was successful, but when he saw so many people coming to join in the fun, his mood suddenly turned bad.

The Sixth Princess remained silent, but she had already remembered these ministers. Their daughters actually wanted to snatch her husband away. Bah, so shameless.

Ye Yuanhang, the second master of the Ye family in the Anhe Marquis Mansion, clenched his hands tightly under the table when he saw Ye Xiao being appointed as a general and being asked to marry by many ministers.

"Your Majesty, I have already married a wife in the countryside and have two sons. My wife and I love each other very much, so I will not marry anyone else." Ye Xiao stood up and reported.

"Oh, you got married." Emperor Dongqi said this expressionlessly, leaving many people unsure of what the emperor meant.

"Your Majesty, it has been normal for men to have three wives and four concubines since ancient times. However, it is not appropriate to let these noble ladies be concubines. It would be better for them to marry to the Zhenxi General's Mansion as co-wives. More people will be considerate and take care of General Ye, and General Ye can also spend more time on official business." The queen said with a smile.

"Thank you for your kindness, Queen. My wife married me when I was at my lowest point and shared the good and bad times with me. Now that I have finally gotten my reward, I naturally want to give her the best. As for other people's wives and concubines, I don't want to have them. I only want one wife in this life. I hope Your Majesty will grant my wish." Ye Xiao knelt on the ground.

The queen was humiliated and was in a bad mood. This Night Owl was really shameless.

The emperor felt that Ye Xiao was very manly. It is said that a man should not divorce his wife who has shared his hardships. A woman who can support him in difficult times must be a good person. As for the fact that the other party is a country girl, Ye Xiao is willing. No matter how powerful he is as an emperor, he cannot interfere in the affairs of his subjects.

"Haha, General Ye is a man of loyalty and righteousness, which is really rare. After tomorrow, I will give you a vacation and bring your wife and children closer to the capital to enjoy a good life." Emperor Dongqi laughed.

"Yes!" Night Owl clasped his fists.

"Yes, I also want to see how beautiful Madam Ye is. She is so beautiful that General Ye, who has made great military achievements, loves her so much that he gave up a large forest for her." The queen said sarcastically.

Ye Xiao did not reply. He felt that this queen was just looking for trouble and could not find any pleasure.
