Chapter 186 There is only one person she can marry
After the dissolution of the dynasty.
Li Yuzong accompanied the emperor.
He gave the emperor some tea after approving the papers, and saw that the emperor looked quite happy.
Then he said talkatively: "Your Majesty, the theory of celestial phenomena proposed by Mr. Gao today is very mysterious."
But he also had doubts in his heart: "It's just that if Miss Ji wants to get married in the future, wouldn't it mean that she won't be able to get married?"
Who dares to risk the reputation of the emperor's heir if he marries? No?
Emperor Wu Su’s tone was light but meaningful.
"She has only one person to marry."
But even if she enters the palace and is accused of being unfavorable to the emperor's heir, what should she do?
At first, Li Yuzong couldn't turn his head around. After thinking about it for a while, he finally understood.
Miss Ji Wu had given birth to an imperial heir and was the biological mother of His Highness Yuan Heng. Once this matter was made known to the world, how could there be any harm.
A daughter who can give birth to a son for the emperor is a blessed one and deserves to be enjoyed by the emperor. If she marries another person and continues her legacy for others, that would be a real act that harms the emperor's heir.
Li Yuzong wanted to understand the key, and his old face wrinkled up with a smile.
"Your Majesty is far-sighted and wise."
Emperor Wu Su glanced at him sideways, and Li Yuzong realized that he was noisy. He quickly put away his smile and quietly retreated to guard outside the palace door.
Standing at the entrance of Qinzheng Palace, Li Yuzong looked at the study room not far away, feeling anxious in his heart.
I just don’t know why the emperor hasn’t moved yet.
Miss Ji Wu returned to Lin'an. The past half year has almost passed. The Holy Emperor issued a decree and she was directly included in the harem.
Why bother with that secret meeting at night?
Now, the situation is more complicated. General Wei Ting also wants to marry him, if this will hurt the relationship between the monarch and his ministers.
The emperor is not in a hurry, he, the chief eunuch, is very anxious!
There is no other reason. If Miss Ji Wu could enter the palace earlier, the pressure on him to serve in front of the emperor would be less.

Wei Ting returned home after going to court. He was trapped by the theory of astrology and felt depressed.
She wanted to go back to the study and think about how to deal with it, but the maid waiting at the door invited her to Mrs. Wei's yard.
Wei Ting asked: "What's the matter with grandma? Are you so anxious?"
The maid shook her head: "Master, I don't know."
But she didn't want to offend the future. The head of the family still revealed some news to him.
“After the old lady went to Hanshan Temple to worship Buddha in the morning, she returned home and was in the house. Even Miss Seven and the others who came to greet her were stopped outside the courtyard.”
After entering the door, Wei Ting hid his emotions and put a gentle smile on his lips.
"My grandson paid my respects to my grandmother. My grandma didn't see me for a while, so she missed me so much. She even sent Xiao Tao to wait for me at the door. My grandson's heart was extremely warm."
The entire Wei family dared to agree with me. The only ones the dignified old lady was joking about were Wei Ting and Xiao Yao.
The room was unusually quiet. Mrs. Wei looked at the Buddha statue in the room and had been sitting cross-legged for an hour.
She did not turn her head when she heard his voice.
Nanny Pan winked at Wei Ting and signaled him not to make jokes, as the old lady was in a bad mood.
Wei Ting came to her side, sat down cross-legged, and asked, "Why does grandma look so unhappy? Did she encounter some difficulty?"
Mrs. Wei then said: " I don’t have any troubles, you brought them back to me.”
Wei Ting didn’t know why, and Granny Pan mouthed the word “Ji Wu” behind the old lady.
After Wei Ting understood, his heart sank. Ji Qingwu actually ran to his grandmother and showed up.
He knew the outcome of this meeting by looking at the old lady's expression.
Mrs. Wei was very dissatisfied with her. Wei Ting smiled and asked: "Grandma, you have met Ji Qingwu, what do you think of her?"
"Decent in dealing with things? Gentle and petty?" Mrs. Wei said: " You have been at the border for six years and your eyes were blown by the sand. You want to marry this kind of witch."
Wei Ting felt that he was not exaggerating. Ji Qingwu's character was indeed like this.
In her early years, whether it was true or pretended, her temperament was indeed gentle and pure.
Wei Ting thought of the day he returned secretly, when she appeared at the door of the Qinzheng Hall and saluted him from a distance. Her appearance at that moment was tender, graceful, and generous.
Why did she become a witch in the eyes of the old lady?
Wei Ting said: "Grandma, did you have any misunderstanding with her?"
Old Mrs. Wei said: "Misunderstanding? We met today at the Main Hall of Hanshan Temple, and all the sisters in your family met. Here she is, not only does she look charming, but she also has a flirtatious temper. I will not allow such a girl to enter the Wei family.”
Not knowing what went wrong, he insisted: "Grandma, it is my grandson who wants to marry, and he is not marrying someone else. I just want to accept it if it pleases me."
Mrs. Wei thought in her mind Thinking of Ji Wu's enchanting appearance, I felt bad.
Not wanting to continue arguing with him, he said directly: "She without me, me without her, you unworthy descendant, choose for yourself!"
Wei Ting has not yet realized the seriousness of the matter. Xing said: "Grandma, don't worry, I won't marry a daughter-in-law and forget my grandmother."
Mrs. Wei waved her hand and asked Nanny Pan to fetch an object.
Not long after, Wei Ting came out.
Even if he was the majestic General Zhenbei, when his elderly grandmother drove him out of the yard with a cane, he still had to cover his head and run away.
Wei Ting returned to the study and cleared out the servants and maids.
He was told by the stars in the morning that he was speechless and could not speak.
Back home, Mrs. Wei's attitude changed from being relaxed to firmly opposed. It turned out that Ji Qingwu didn't want to marry him, and he even went to the old lady and did some things to annoy her grandmother.
Wei Ting had to admit that he had indeed underestimated Ji Qingwu's courage.
But I also got to know again how unwilling this woman who had asked for everything in front of him was now to succumb to his will.
Why could she disappear in an instant after provoking him, escape unharmed, and even become pregnant with someone else's son?
Especially after meeting Concubine Wei in the palace and learning about the recent events in Lin'an and the palace, he made up his mind to marry Ji Qingwu overnight.
The gentle smile at the corner of Wei Ting's mouth was replaced by a bone-gnawing coldness.
It doesn't matter if they become a bitter couple.
On the table in the study room, there are the four treasures of the study and a red brocade box.
He opened it and found a thick stack of letters written by Ji Qingwu to him. At the bottom of the box, there was also a piece of Welwitschia petal that had long since dried up.
Wei Ting held the hard-to-preserve petal on his fingertips and took a look.
Then, use your hands to crush it.
The broken petals fell on his brocade robe and were flicked away by him.

After Ji Qingwu returned home, he did not dare to pick up Jiujiu from school.
She first asked Lanzhi to go to Mr. Qiao’s place and asked Nanny Li to come and pick her up. She also brought a message to Mr. Qiao. She would go over and tell her in detail what happened today.
When she walked back to Wutong Garden, she discovered something strange.
The sycamore tree in the courtyard had lost a lot of branches and leaves. It was windless and rainless today, and the mess on the ground revealed something strange.
Ji Qingwu: Who went crazy and chopped down my tree! Don't get caught by me!
