Chapter 235: Granting the Princess a Mansion and 3,000 Private Soldiers
"Not on purpose?" Emperor Zhaocheng sneered, with a serious look on his face, "In front of me, she dared to persist in her reckless and inappropriate pride! It can be seen that outside the palace, she was only afraid of If you think you can be compared with the princess, you can even put the princess down."
"Your Majesty!" Princess Yu was quick to think, and knelt down in front of the emperor with a plop, "The direct female of the Gu family is unruly, and since she married into Prince Yu's palace, she kept saying that Wenxuan was not good enough for her, relying on her status as the prime minister's direct daughter. Almost trampling on everyone in Prince Yu’s house!”
"Gu Anxian is arrogant. She doesn't respect her parents-in-law, doesn't serve her husband, and treats her servants either by beating or scolding her. If she doesn't get her way at all, she sends people home to complain and asks Prime Minister Gu to support her!"
"Your Majesty, how can a husband and wife live without some bumps in the road? But Gu Anxian can't tolerate any dissatisfaction at all. Ever since she got married, Prince Yu's palace has been in a state of chaos almost every day. She has tormented her into a mess, and she still begs the Emperor to make the decision!"
"I also ask the emperor to make the decision and allow Wenxuan to divorce his wife and marry another one. I really...can't offend her!"
Princess Yu seemed to have suffered a lot of grievance and finally burst out. She spoke very fast and in an excited tone, accusing Gu Anxian, wishing she could break off the relationship with her immediately.
After he finished speaking, he wiped the red corners of his eyes with a handkerchief, as if his grievances had finally been poured out.
No matter how good-tempered Emperor Zhaocheng was, he couldn't bear it anymore and finally asked: "Gu Anxian."
Gu Anxian's heart sank, she put the tea cup back on the tray, turned around and knelt down to face Emperor Zhaocheng: "My maiden is here."
"Is what Princess Yu said true?"
Gu Anxian replied silently, which was certainly not true.
Princess Yu, who filed the complaint, knew in her heart, and Gu Anxian also knew in her heart that she would always be the one being bullied by Princess Yu.
It's just that Gu Anxian hates Mu Wenxuan and doesn't want to live with him at all, so she never cares about his attitude and chooses to turn a blind eye to the cold looks from Prince Yu and his wife.
At this time, Princess Yu's words were not only adding fuel to jealousy, but also confusing right and wrong.
She complained so hysterically because she was worried about being implicated by Gu Anxian.
However, Gu Anxian did not deny it, but said respectfully: "If what Princess Yu said is true, will the emperor agree to let Mu Wenxuan divorce his wife?"
Emperor Zhaocheng said coldly: "If it is indeed true, you have violated the seven-out rule, and it is reasonable to divorce your wife."
If this marriage had not been a gift from the emperor, Mu Wenxuan would not have had to go through so much trouble if he wanted to divorce his wife, as long as they did not worry about retaliation from the Prime Minister's Palace.
Of course, without the marriage granted by the emperor, Gu Anxian would not have been able to marry a playboy like Mu Wenxuan.
"In that case, I accept Princess Yu's accusation." Gu Anxian leaned over and kowtowed, "I beg the emperor to allow Mu Wenxuan to divorce my daughter and give her my freedom."
Emperor Zhaocheng narrowed his eyes: "Do you want to be divorced?"
"My maid——"
"Gu Anxian." Mu Wenxuan was so angry that he rushed over and kicked her, "What on earth do you want to do? Being so presumptuous in front of the emperor -"
"Mu Wenxuan!" Prince Yu was frightened to death by his actions and ordered coldly and angrily, "Kneel down!"
Mu Wenxuan was so frightened that he knelt down with a plop.
Gu Anxian didn't make a sound when she was kicked down, and she knelt down silently.
"Your Majesty, forgive me!" Mu Wenxuan was timid and not as fearless of death as Gu Anxian, so he kowtowed repeatedly and begged for mercy, "I was really angry just now, please forgive me, Uncle Emperor!"
Emperor Zhaocheng raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows, feeling so angry that he had a headache.
"I really watched a lively show today." Jiang Yi suddenly spoke, the smile on his lips showing cold sarcasm, "I haven't seen so many brainless people for a long time since I left Mu Country. Come together."
As soon as these words came out, several pairs of eyes looked towards Jiang Yi.
A gathering of brainless people?
Doesn't this scold everyone?
"What are you looking at me for?" Jiang Yi looked back one by one and laughed mercilessly, "No matter how much I look at it, it can't change the fact that you are stupid. If anyone refuses to admit it, I can cite evidence of your stupidity one by one."
King Yu, King Xian, King Jing, King Yu, King Xian... all looked away and acknowledged their accusations of stupidity.
"Come here!" Emperor Zhaocheng ordered coldly, "Xuan Gu, Prime Minister."
Xiao Changhai quickly received the order: "I will send someone to deliver the order."
"Since Miss Gu is so disdainful of the marriage I have given, starting today, Mu Wenxuan is allowed to divorce his wife and marry another man." Emperor Zhaocheng spoke calmly, his voice indifferent to emotion and anger, "I can see with my eyes that this man from the imperial capital is also Not many are worthy of you!"
Gu Anxian's face turned pale and she knelt on the ground without daring to speak.
Are you feeling uneasy, or are you really relieved?
Does being divorced mean that she no longer has to serve tea to Yan Li as Mu Wenxuan's wife?
She has nothing to do with Mu Wenxuan from now on, she is free. ŴŴŴ.
She can fight for the happiness she wants again.
Emperor Zhaocheng didn't look at her anymore and turned to look at the others: "I have something to tell you today."
Everyone shuddered and respectfully made a gesture of listening.
"Jiang Yi went to Jin State fifteen years ago according to my secret order, and her marriage to Jin State was completely in accordance with my plan."
"She suffered unjust injustice for many years because of this. She was considered immoral and her reputation was damaged. Fortunately, the truth is now known and she has returned with glory."
"The most aggrieved among them is Yan Li. He lost his mother's protection when he was young. He has been living in the care of others for fourteen years and has been treated with cold eyes."
"As compensation, I have decided to grant Princess Nanyang a princess's mansion and allow her to command 3,000 private soldiers."
"Your Majesty!" Prince Yu and Prince Xian were shocked at the same time, "This is against the rules!"
"Father!" King Yu was shocked and knelt down quickly, "Since the founding of the Mu Kingdom, there has never been a precedent of women commanding soldiers. Moreover, Princess Nanyang is young and has never been to the battlefield-"
"Is there something wrong with your ears?" Emperor Zhaocheng frowned and looked unkindly, "When did I say let her go to the battlefield? I'm talking about private soldiers, do you understand private soldiers?"
"Your Majesty-"
"Private soldiers are for Princess Nanyang to mobilize at her own will. I want to see who dares to bully her in the future!" Emperor Zhaocheng said, turning his head to look at Yan Li, "Girl Li, you can use the private soldiers I gave you. You are an elder now. If anyone dares to disrespect you, whether it is a prince or a princess, you have the right to teach them a lesson!"
Yan Li stood up and bowed slightly: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Mu Xue and Mu Yunzhu clenched their hands in anger.
Is the emperor too partial?
Yan Li is not a biological princess, but because the emperor had a relationship with Jiang Yi many years ago, he really treats Yan Li as his own daughter?
Even Mu Xue, the real legitimate princess, still does not have her own mansion, let alone private soldiers.
Why does Yan Li, a ninth prince's wife, have private soldiers?
