Chapter 43 Resolve the Marriage

After the scholar left, Ji Liunian praised him: "Ceng Mei, you have a good vision. I think he really likes you or is a gentle and polite person. He will definitely treat you well in the future. After dating for a period of time, I greeted Cheng Zun and asked him to blow in the emperor's ear and bring him in.

Cheng Mei couldn't help but pick up Ji Liunian.

After that, Xiao Shusheng went to the princess's house many times, because the princess did not meet him alone and asked him to teach her calligraphy, so outsiders just thought that it was a calligraphy teacher invited by the princess.

The two are more affectionate and their feelings are stronger.

Just when Ji Liunian planned to tell Cheng Zun about this matter, Cheng Zun told her an unexpected news.

General Ye's heart is unstable. His son Chengmei is two years old and has reached the age of marriage, so the emperor decided that Chengmei will marry him and set the wedding date for next month."

Ji Liunian was stunned for a long time and patted her on the shoulder before she reacted.

"Does the princess know?"

"I don't know yet, my father will announce it when he go to court in a few days. Marriage affairs have always been made by parents, which is the same among the people. Children can only listen to their parents and can't make private opinions.

"This must happen. The princess already has a person..." Ji Liunian felt that he should be honest with Cheng Zun and get his support.

"What? You guys are really messing around..."

Ji Liunian then told the whole story and repeatedly assured that the princess did not have a relationship with the scholar.

"Even if you don't have sex, you will be beheaded for life. This young man is too bold. Why didn't you tell me earlier? There is still Weibai. If something happens, I won't even let you go.

Weibai quickly knelt down and said, "The prince calmed his anger. I'm in a dilemma. The maidservant has warned the lady and the princess, but I can't help it if they don't listen."

"What a big deal. Anyway, the marriage has not been announced yet. Just let the emperor take back the order." Ji Liunian said angrily.

"You..." Cheng Zun is also extremely angry.

Wei Bai hurriedly took this opportunity to slip away.

"The method of marrying his daughter to his son in order to stabilize a general is too inferior. Don't worry, if the general really betrays, I'll deal with it. Ji Liunian patted Cheng Zun on the shoulder, but he hated his pedantic and cowardly.

"Even without the emperor's marriage, they are not allowed to do so. It's just a scholar. Can he afford to match the princess to him? I'm going to kill this greedy scholar." Cheng Zun said angrily.

What's wrong with the scholar? They are still familiar with military books, and they are polite and gentle. They are much better than you. You will only make people give in hard.

"It seems that he has already bought you. Do you like him too? Do you have an affair with him? Cheng Zun's eyes turned red, like a rabbit.

Ji Liunian slapped him in the face very fast.

"Don't insult me, I'm not easy to bully. I also saved your life. If you hadn't begged me to come back, I wouldn't have stayed here. I'll go..." Ji Liunian ran out. Seeing that Weiyang was at the door, she quickly asked her to pack her bags.

"Miss, don't be impulsive. You did something wrong this time..."

"You talk to me like this, okay, next time I will match you to the ugliest little boy." Ji Liunian ran away in a hurry and didn't pack up his clothes.

Ji Liunian wanted to go home, but he came out and felt that he couldn't do anything when he went home. He had better inform the princess first and find a way to solve it together.

When the princess heard the news, her whole heart fell down.

"It's over, it's all over, Ji Fei, you must help me..." Cheng Mei cried.

"Don't worry, I will help you. Don't cry, let's figure it out together. What do you think the emperor will give up the idea? We still have time before the emperor announces the marriage.

"I know that my father is a man, and it is difficult for him to change what he decides once."

"Then let's figure it out again." Ji Liunian thought about it and had to open the gap on General Ye's side. I will go to Yefu tomorrow to understand the situation and then make a final determination.

Chengmei nodded.

The next day, Ji Liunian went to Ye's mansion alone and gave an invitation, and General Ye came to greet him in person.

"The prince's future is boundless. Not to mention that it is not far away, the prince will soon compete with the prince of Dali Kingdom, which will lose face to the prince of Dali Kingdom. At that time, I was surprised that the prince's martial arts would give back three points to me as a general.

"General Ye has passed the reputation. I heard that there is a plum garden on General Ye's side. I came here to see it." Seasonal years change the topic.

"This rumor must be wrong. It's General Huang's plum garden. This is Taoyuan. It won't bloom until spring. Concubine Ji can come next spring. However, although the humble house is not more magnificent than the palace, there are several places to walk. Since Ji Fei has come, it's okay to walk away.

Although General Ye is tall and rude, his words are decent, and he seems to be a reasonable person.

"Does the general have a son who has reached the age of marriage?"

"Exactly, the child is not talented, and there is no marriage partner yet." In fact, General Ye has heard that the emperor will marry a daughter to him.

"The general is too modest. I heard that the emperor is going to marry the seventh princess to your son."

The general laughed.

"I'll be honest. Originally, I wanted to talk about it from a long time, but at first glance, the general is a straightforward person and a polite person. The seventh princess has always been good with me, and I learned from her that she already belongs to her heart. Although this is not allowed by ethics, it is difficult to control people's feelings. At this age, the general can better understand my words, especially the love in his youth, which can often destroy a person's life.

"What does that Jifei mean?" General Ye was already unhappy to hear this, but his face did not show it. Ji Liunian sensed his displeasure.

I mean, can the general set a wedding for his beloved son in advance or politely decline it? Of course, as compensation, I will send an equal amount of gifts.

"Fe Concubine Ji, there is no one else here, so I will say it directly. In fact, I have been waiting for the emperor to marry. As you can see, what an honor it is that General Li's two daughters have married the prince. My level is not much different from that of General Li. Isn't it too much to marry the royal family? General Ye's tone was very dissatisfied.

"The general's request is indeed not too much. But you have also seen the end of the crown princess Li Xiangrong. General Li doesn't even have the right to speak. Marriage with the royal family seems glorious, but there are actually many injustices. If your son marries the daughter of a large family, the general can not only enjoy the courtesy of consent in front of his in-laws, but also get a lot of benefits. General, you will never believe the gift I offer you. My father is extremely rich. You must already know that I will ask my father to contact a rich, beautiful and virtuous girl to marry into Yefu. In addition, I am willing to pay 100,000 taels of gold as compensation.

Just now, General Ye was still indignant and stunned by this condition. After thinking about Ji Liunian's words again, I think it makes sense. The treasury is empty. He knows it better than anyone else, and the emperor is also very short of money.

Ji Liunian saw that General Ye had begun to waver.

"If General Ye doesn't believe me, I can make a note." Ji Liunian hits the iron while it is hot.

"Of course, Ji Fei will never fool me, but I still have to discuss this matter with my son." General Ye felt that this was a major event of the Ye family and could not be easily determined. Otherwise, the descendants of the Ye family will definitely blame him in the future.

Ji Liunian knew that this matter was not urgent, so he went back.

In the evening, a young man came to see him. Ji Liunian quickly welcomed him in and told him to take good care of the door.

"My father asked me to come and talk back." The man is burly, and his eyebrows are a little similar to General Ye.

Ji Liunian pretended to be calm and said with a smile, "Get up and speak slowly."

The man stood up: "Dad said that if we can marry the Xie family in the capital, we can do as you say."

Ji Liunian smiled and said, "Don't worry, it's the Xie family who sells cloth? You have a good vision. Miss Xie is smart, virtuous and beautiful.

There was a trace of shyness on the man's face.

"Go back and tell your father that I will keep my promise and have more contact in the future."
