Chapter 907: Speaking Frankly to the Emperor
Chapter 907: Speaking Frankly to the Emperor
Leng Rongyue looked at Emperor Hongde and slowly asked, "Your Majesty, if a certain country really proposed that His Royal Highness Prince Yu marry a princess or a princess from that country, if you agree, it will bring peace to the border between the two countries for ten or even dozens of years;
If you refuse, war will begin...
At a time like this, the emperor should first consider Jingyue’s national interests, right?
When war breaks out between two nations and countless lives are lost, only a marriage is needed to separate us...
What would the emperor think?
Will you choose the simplest and easiest marriage?
Or will you choose to start a war that will consume huge manpower and material resources and result in huge sacrifices?
Also, if the other party proposed that if Jingyue agreed to the marriage, they would give up huge benefits... For example... a large piece of land, several cities, or some resources that Jingyue lacked...
As long as you agree to the marriage, you can easily get these... Your Majesty... what do you think?
Speaking of which, Rongyue is just a girl in the boudoir.
If the other party offers extremely favorable conditions... as long as the marriage is agreed, Jingyue Kingdom can instantly expand its territory and easily obtain huge benefits.
Rongyue is just a weak woman, compared with the huge interests...what does she matter?
What if the other party is really determined to achieve a certain goal, and colludes with someone inside and outside Jingyue, using all kinds of shady means, then what will happen?
There is another possibility...
What if, in order to completely abolish the engagement between me and His Royal Highness Prince Yu, you send a princess or a county lady to marry His Royal Highness Prince Yu, and also ask Rongyue to go to another country to marry?
Here, His Royal Highness Prince Yu can gain huge benefits by marrying a princess from another country;
Sacrificing Rongyue again can bring benefits to Jingyue.
What if we can plan from both sides and gain the benefits from both?
What will the Emperor and His Royal Highness Prince Yu choose?
Perhaps if this situation really happens, Jingyue Nation might be able to reap double benefits through just two marriages...
Is it true that His Majesty, for the sake of the country and people of Jingyue, would not be tempted?
Also, Your Highness Prince Yu, if the other person is beautiful and charming, and the conditions offered are also tempting, what will Your Highness Prince Yu choose?
Will you continue to uphold the promises made between your children?"
When Leng Rongyue said this, his expression did not change much, and he remained calm and composed.
"Yue'er, I am Xiao Jingyu, not Xiao Jingyi who can easily abandon his wife!
For Yue'er, Jingyu is willing to keep his promise with his life, please believe me, Yue'er!"
Xiao Jingyu looked at Leng Rongyue and said solemnly.
"Yes, Rongyue, you should believe Yu'er, and you should also believe me.
I am not a person who forgets righteousness when seeing profit!"
Emperor Hongde also quickly expressed his position.
"Rongyue believes in His Royal Highness Prince Yu!
Of course, I also believe in the emperor.
However, faced with the dilemma of interests and dangers, if the problem can be solved simply by giving up a marriage contract, would the Emperor and His Royal Highness Prince Yu choose the difficult over the easy, and the far over the near?
Your Majesty, Your Highness Prince Yu, Rongyue is not exaggerating, nor is it worrying about nothing.
Next, the countries that come to visit will surely have their own thoughts.
Jingyue Kingdom has the divine appearance of His Royal Highness Prince Yu, so there will naturally be people coveting him;
Jingyue Kingdom has a vast territory, a rich country and a strong people, and will also be coveted by other countries.
The most direct, effective and mutually beneficial way is marriage.
Whether it's an engagement or a relationship, sometimes it's not worth mentioning in the face of huge interests!"
Just as Xiao Jingyu was about to say something, Leng Rongyue raised her hand to stop him.
"Rongyue can guess what His Royal Highness Prince Yu is going to say.
Rongyue just said that she believes in His Royal Highness Prince Yu and also believes in the Emperor.
What Rongyue wants to say is that she doesn't want the Emperor and His Royal Highness Prince Yu to be hesitant because of Rongyue.
For Rongyue, whether it is the Emperor or His Royal Highness Prince Yu, as long as there is any hesitation, this marriage will no longer have any meaning!
When that time comes, Rongyue has an unwelcome request..."
"Yue'er, you really worry too much!
I guarantee that the situation you described will not happen!"
Emperor Hong De said this with conviction.
"Your Majesty, Rongyue was just talking about the possibility of a catastrophe!"
Leng Rongyue looked at Emperor Hong De and said with a faint smile.
"Okay, then tell me!"
Emperor Hongde's expression also became completely serious at this time.
But Leng Rongyue doesn't care and isn't afraid.
"Your Majesty, Rongyue only wants to say that if there ever comes a moment when Your Majesty is reading the imperial decree granting marriage and is having trouble making a decision, please don't be embarrassed.
The same goes for His Royal Highness Prince Yu.
Rongyue will never be one of the many choices!
If His Royal Highness Prince Yu is really interested in a marriage partner from another country, he doesn't have to be troubled by the marriage contract.
But Yue'er has her own persistence.
Please, Your Majesty and Your Highness Prince Yu, do not force Rongyue to enter Prince Yu's palace while accepting a marriage alliance from another country!
Let alone being a concubine, Rongyue would rather die than accept such humiliation;
Even if Rongyue is made the principal wife, it is impossible for her to share a husband with someone else!
Rongyue is emotionally obsessed with cleanliness.
In Rongyue's eyes, a man who has a second or more women at the same time is the dirtiest thing in the world!
Rongyue thinks it’s dirty!
Furthermore, Rongyue will never marry a princess!
If the other party really threatens with war, then Rongyue will destroy that country!
Rongyue would rather face a country's war alone than submit to a marriage alliance!
Exchanging a woman for peace may seem like the simplest thing, but it is actually the most incompetent act of a country.
Moreover, when that time comes, the engagement between Rongyue and His Royal Highness Prince Yu will be annulled immediately.
Rongyue is willing to use her own strength to save Jingyue Country from disaster. I only ask Your Majesty not to implicate my grandfather's family or the Duke of Anguo's Mansion because of Rongyue!"
