Translator: 549690339
Year 7291 of the Great Zhou Royal Calendar.
There were rumors in the imperial court that the emperor was preparing for a marriage alliance with the Li family.
He wanted his two sons to marry the two daughters of the Li family and then marry his daughter to Li Yueming.
The moment this news was released.
Instantly, the entire Great Zhou Empire’s imperial family and aristocratic families couldn’t sit still.
Since ancient times, it was very common for emperors and ministers to marry.
It was also often used by the emperor to win over and buy people’s hearts.
Through marriage, they forcefully tied the interests of the ministers to the chariot of the royal family.
The two combined to form a new community of interests.
Under normal circ.u.mstances, it was already an honor for the officials to be able to get the royal family to take the initiative to marry.
However, this marriage alliance had greatly shocked the imperial family and the great clans.
This was because the emperor had not only chosen to marry his daughter.
He also wanted the prince to marry both of the Li family’s daughters.
What kind of concept was this?
Currently, there were only four princes under the emperor’s name. The Li family would take up two of the spots for the imperial concubines.
The only thing that was uncertain was whether the emperor would a.s.sign the two daughters of the Li family to the crown prince, the second prince, or the third prince.
As for the little prince, he definitely couldn’t do it. He was only five years old this year!
In addition, Li Yueming would marry the only daughter of the emperor.
It was equivalent to kissing!
If this matter really succeeded.
Then, in the next few decades or even centuries, the Li family would become the well-deserved number one family in the entire Great Zhou!!!
Therefore, it was no wonder that the group of royal n.o.bles and aristocratic families were so anxious.
What did this mean?
This meant that the emperor was very likely determined to use marriage to rope in the Li family.
After all, if nothing unexpected happened, one of the two daughters would marry the Crown Prince.
At that time, the Li family would give birth to an imperial grandson.
In that case, the Great Zhou Empire would be equivalent to having a part of the Li family.
As a relative, wouldn’t the Li family do their best to protect the safety of the Zhou Dynasty?
In fact, this was not unexpected.
After all, among the conventional methods, it seemed that only the marriage method could be well suited to the current Li family.
However, the only thing that everyone did not expect was that the emperor was so generous.
Not only did he accept the two daughters of the Li family as his wife, he was
even prepared to marry the princess to Li Yueming.
After confirming that the news was not groundless, he was shocked.
Immediately, the representatives of the royal family and aristocratic families from all over the world poured into Haojing from all directions.
For a time, all kinds of exhortations and remonstrances could be heard in the imperial court.
The censors said that this would be a hidden danger for the court in the future.
The ceremonial officials expressed that this was not in line with etiquette.
There were all sorts of reasons, and they could talk about a lot of nonsense.
In fact, the two sides were talking about the same thing.
He didn’t want the Li family to monopolize this power. At the very least, he wanted to get a share of it.
The emperor only listened and did not express his opinion.
Hence, he decided to do it.
In a short period of time, this matter became the hottest topic in the central plains of the Great Zhou.

Wenzhou City.
Li Ruxing and Li Ruyue were sitting down in the restaurant.
They had only come here to meet after their shift.
At this moment, the waiter had just served the warm sake, and Li Ruxing picked up the wine pot and took a big gulp.
It was not easy for him to drink until he was full.
Li Ruxing burped, and her face was flushed red from the alcohol.
Li Ruyue frowned and looked at her second sister who didn’t have any feminine elegance. She wanted to teach her a lesson.
However, when he thought about how this girl was already in her twenties, any ordinary girl or child would have to do nothing.
Therefore, he held back and did not reprimand her.
After eating some side dishes, Li Ruyue finally spoke first,””Second Sister, you can’t be so unrestrained in the future!”
A year ago.
The two girls who had graduated from the Cultivation Academy had already been a.s.signed to the observatory to sort out the astronomical data of the past generations.
After receiving the emperor’s attention recently, the two women’s work was also changed to the Hanlin Academy to clean up the anthology.
Thus, he was already aware of the rumors that had been spreading in the court recently.
It was just that no one rushed to whisper in their ears.
Now that they finally met, it was naturally because of this matter.
“Big sister, you can’t be looking forward to getting married, right?” Li Ruxing smiled when she heard this. It was not easy for him to take a day off from the boring shift day. Instead of drinking a few gla.s.ses of wine to quench his thirst, he talked about such boring things!”
Li Ruyue frowned again.
Obviously, her patience had been severely challenged.
After taking two deep breaths and calming herself down, Li Ruyue tried her best to be as calm as possible. “We’re already in our twenties. Isn’t it normal for us to get married? Sun Xiaoxiao, who studied with us in the cla.s.s next door, is now the mother of two children!”
Li Ruxing muttered softly,””Wu Feifei, who studied with us back then, even died of a cold last year…Why don’t you look at her?”
Li Ruyue became alert and said,””What did you say?”
Li Ruxinz 0Dened her mouth and wanted to reDeat it again, but in the end, she was scared. She shook her head and said,”lt’s nothing!”
Li Ruyue knew that her sister’s mouth was full of nonsense.
However, because Li Ruxing’s voice was very soft, he did not hear what the girl was mumbling..
