When Ning Yue heard this, she blushed.
Yuan Hui said this as if she hated marriage. What could she say?
âAlright, Iâm here too. It just so happens that 1â11 enter the palace to discuss your marriage with the emperor. Xiaobao and Xiaobei are already so old. If you donât hold a wedding soon, how long will Xiaobao and Xiaobei have to wait before they have younger siblings?â
Hearing Yuan Huiâs words, Ning Yueâs face turned even redder. She opened her mouth to say that it was too fast, but Jiang Ying beat her to it.
âIâll listen to Uncle.â Jiang Ying grinned. This smile looked silly no matter how he looked at it.
âThatâs good. Itâs late today. Iâll enter the palace of Great Yun Nation to visit the emperor tomorrow and tell him about your marriage,â Yuan Hui said with a smile.
It was calm now, but what happened a few days ago made the emperor even busier. Now that Yuan Hui had entered the palace, he had to more or less pay attention to the emperorâs emotions.
âBy the way, something happened to Uncle recently,â Ning Yue said as she told Yuan Hui about the Retired Emperor.
Yuan Huiâs expression instantly darkened. âThe matter of Black City Kingdom has been dealt with appropriately. Who else in the world is so blind to plot against the Retired Emperor?â
âItâs Consort Shu.â Ning Yue told Yuan Hui the results of Jiang Ying and the emperorâs investigation.
Yuan Hui almost couldnât help but roll his eyes. Alright, this was a fire in the backyard. It had nothing to do with their national affairs.
âAlright, 1 know what you mean. Iâll be careful. Your marriage has been delayed for a long time. You canât delay it any longer,â Yuan Hui said with a smile.
Actually, Yuan Huiâs idea was that after they got married, he could directly nurture Xiaobao to be the emperor. Of course, Xiaobao was still young and he needed time to nurture him, so he would not be too anxious.
Yuan Hui was scheming. He wanted to immediately bring Xiaobao to his side and nurture him well. However, he only thought about it and did not act on it.
The next day, Yuan Hui entered the palace and told the emperor his thoughts. The emperor raised his hands and feet in agreement.
âEmperor of Great Yun Nation, I have an idea. Give some cities to Ning Yue as fiefs. Iâve seen a few cities that are closer to the border. Why donât 1 give a few cities on my side to Ning Yue? This way, with her fiefs in the middle, itâll be easier for our two countries to contact each other.â
Yuan Hui said that he wanted to give a few cities to Ning Yue as fiefs, but it was actually to give Ning Yue confidence and let everyone know that Ning Yue had him, her uncle, as her strong backing.
No one could bully Ning Yue!
At the same time, this was also Yuan Huiâs small warning. He hoped that Jiang Ying would be loyal to Ning Yue. If Jiang Ying let Ning Yue down, he would definitely not let him off.
Hearing Yuan Huiâs words, the emperor instantly understood what he meant.
âAlright, this is your good intention. I donât think Ning Yue will refuse,â the emperor said.
Then, the two of them chatted for a while more. Yuan Hui hinted to the emperor that he wanted to nurture Jiang Ying and Ning Yueâs child, Xiaobao, as his successor.
Although the emperor was shocked, he could still accept it.
After all, Yuan Hui was already old. Who knew how many years he would have to nurture a child at this time? If he had a child with mediocre aptitude, wouldnât it be troublesome?
Therefore, the emperor quickly understood Yuan Hui.
However, this was only Yuan Huiâs hint. He did not make it clear, so the emperor did not say anything.
On the other hand, it meant that he would definitely help with all his might.
Yuan Hui was relieved.
Of course, it was not just Yuan Hui. The emperor was even more relieved.
Who was Xiaobao? That was Jiang Ying and Ning Yueâs son. Who was Jiang Ying? That was his cousin.
Jiang Ying had been on his side since he was young and had always assisted him when he grew up.
He was as at ease with Jiang Ying as the Retired Emperor was with the heir of Jin.
Even if everyone in the world had rebelled, these two would never harm them.
Since Jiang Yingâs son would ascend the throne, he was very happy. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
After returning to his residence, Yuan Hui sent someone to pass a message to Ning Yue and told her his thoughts.
Ning Yue didnât know what to feel. She sighed and said to the messenger, âGo back and tell Uncle that this matter has to be taken slowly.â
He did not say it directly, but Yuan Hui also understood that Ning Yue meant to let Xiaobao choose his own path in the future.
If Xiaobao was willing to be the emperor, so be it.
If Xiaobao was unwilling, there was nothing he could do..
