Chapter 649: The Little Girl in the Family Cannot Become a Monk
Will you regret it later...
It’s too late to regret…
I can't take care of these right now.
The most pressing issue that needs to be resolved right now is...how to request the Emperor to revoke his decision.
In other words, they requested the emperor to stop planning to build a nunnery on Yunxiang Mountain and let their daughter stay there to become a nun.
They requested the emperor to let them take their daughter home and let this farce be over.
In fact, if you really look into it...
The second prince Xiao Jingyu is the son of the emperor and the queen.
Who someone else's son marries has nothing to do with them, the ministers.
Whether he wants to marry a lady from a noble family or the daughter of a criminal, it is his own business.
It is not up to them to decide who His Royal Highness Prince Yu wants to marry as his Princess.
They are driven purely by selfishness and greed.
If they say that it is because His Royal Highness Prince Yu is so talented and they want to find a noble and good son-in-law for their daughter... that is not false.
His Royal Highness Prince Yu is the beloved son of the current emperor and empress, and the beloved disciple of Lingxu Zhenren of Ruoxu Peak.
They wanted to snatch the beloved son of the empress and the beloved disciple of Lingxu Zhenren as their son-in-law, and wanted to turn their family into royal relatives. They wanted to use this to gain more power and benefits in Jingyue Kingdom and have a more honorable status... This was of course even more true.
It’s just that this thought… can be kept in the stomach;
You can think about it in your head;
But I can't say it openly.
As for making it...
Ha ha……
Now it has been done, but the result is like this... It's hard to back down!
These officials had been secretly keeping an eye on Emperor Hongde on the Dragon Terrace.
At this time, it was discovered that Emperor Hong De had turned his eyes and looked at the Minister of Works Liu Qingyuan in the literary class, as if he was about to say something.
They knew that the emperor was going to instruct the Minister of Works in person to carry out the construction of the nunnery in Yunxiang Mountain.
If the emperor really spoke out his words, they would be golden words, equivalent to an oral order or an imperial decree.
By then, it will be difficult to ask the emperor to retract his order!
To put it mildly, it was for the sake of the emperor's face;
To put it in a broader sense, that is disobeying the imperial order.
It is not too late.
The court officials exchanged glances with each other and understood each other.
So, they all came out of the class and knelt under the dragon stage.
Emperor Hongde looked down at the officials kneeling under the dragon platform, and couldn't help but sneer in his heart...
These people finally lost their patience.
Are you worried now?
When you were plotting against me and my son before, you were planning wholeheartedly in private, as if you were sure of victory and were determined to succeed!
Since you have ignored the wishes of me and my son, and only want to squeeze out Leng Rongyue and force your own daughter on my son...
Then I don’t mind having dozens more little nuns on Yunxiang Mountain!
Emperor Hong De slowly folded the paper in his hand and said quietly: "My dear ministers, what do you mean by this?
Could it be that... my dear ministers have some similar wish, which I must accept today before you kneel before me?
You didn't even tell me your common wish, but you just kneeled down and wanted me to agree, right?"
Dozens of officials knelt in front of the Dragon Platform, and their hearts trembled after hearing what Emperor Hongde said.
They understood the meaning of the emperor's words.
What the emperor meant was: You all are kneeling before me, are you trying to force me to agree to your demands?
They are even more scared when they understand!
How dare they?
They have no choice but to do this!
They are asking, they are asking, okay?
"no no……"
The kneeling officials waved their hands quickly.
"Your Majesty, I just have something to explain to Your Majesty.
My daughter did go to Qingguo Temple in Yunxiang Mountain yesterday.
But she...she...went to Qingguo Temple to pray for her grandmother.
Your Majesty, my mother has not been feeling well lately.
My little daughter was worried, so she thought of going to Qingguo Temple on Yunxiang Mountain to burn incense and pray for blessings and cure for her grandmother's illness.
that is it.
My little girl...she does that out of filial piety.
That’s right... That’s right, I’m going to Yunxiang Mountain to become a monk!
I beg Your Majesty to investigate this matter!"
"Yeah yeah!
Your Majesty, the same is true for my little daughter.
Yes... yes, my wife has caught a cold and hasn't recovered for many days.
The little girl is filial. In order for her mother to recover soon, she went to Qingguo Temple in Yunxiang Mountain to burn incense and worship Buddha, and pray for her mother's health.
She is very filial.
Although the little girl respected Buddha and Bodhisattva, she had no intention of becoming a nun!
Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"
"Your Majesty, my little daughter is the same.
She just heard that the Buddha and Bodhisattva at the Qingguo Temple on Yunxiang Mountain were efficacious, so she went there with her little sister to burn incense and fulfill a vow to pray for her family! "
"That's right, Your Majesty, my daughter is the same.
She...she is still a young girl who has not yet reached marriage age and has no intention of becoming a nun!
emperor……"
"Your Majesty, my little daughter... my little daughter...
Oh, by the way, my wife has long intended to marry our daughter to her nephew from her natal family.
Both families are interested, but... they haven't expressed their feelings openly yet.
Therefore, my little daughter must not become a nun! "
"Your Majesty, my little daughter has reached the age of marriage and has begun to get married..."
"Your Majesty, my daughter also has a verbal engagement, so you can't let her shave her head and become a nun!"
"..."
