Under the eager anticipation of the two old men, Xiao Lin turned around and bowed deeply to Mrs. Su. Then, with his knees slightly bent, he knelt down in front of her.
"Ouch! Your Highness, you can't do this!" Madam Su was startled and hurriedly stretched out her hand to help.
Xiao Lin shook his head: "Old madam, that's what it is! Just sit down and listen to me tell you slowly!"
"But this..." Madam Su said anxiously, "It's against the rules!"
"There are no rules today, only elders and juniors!" Xiao Lin smiled back, "I am not a prince or monarch. Like A Li, I am your junior! It is normal for juniors to salute their elders!"
"Yes!" Mrs. Xie said with a smile, "Sister of the Ning family, since Lin'er has said so, you don't have to be polite! Today, we will only talk about the elders and juniors, regardless of the superiority or inferiority of the king or ministers! Listen to him, in the end what you want to say!"
"If that's the case, then it's better to be respectful than to obey!" Madam Su also wanted to hear what Xiao Lin would say, and she was no longer polite at the moment.
"Old Madam, please accept my respects from this junior!" Xiao Lin kowtowed to her seriously. Fang looked up at her and said, "Old Madam, this junior has been in love with your granddaughter Ah Li for a long time. I just haven't seen her before." With Ah Li's permission, I dare not propose marriage rashly! Today, Ah Li and I have shared weal and woe, experienced death together, we are in the same mind, and we are in love with each other! I beg the old lady to betroth Ah Li to me! I hereby swear an oath for the rest of my life. , I will keep her safe and sound, love her, love her and pamper her, we will be a pair for the rest of our lives, we will be kings in the future, the harem will be empty, we will only have her as a queen, and we will not have any concubines!"
Although Mrs. Su had already guessed that he would say this, she was still extremely excited when she heard it with her own eyes. She was even more moved when she heard the last sentence!
Although the man in front of him has not yet ascended the throne as emperor, he is already the Lord of Xiao.
As an emperor, he should have three palaces and six courtyards, but he is willing to set up a harem for Su Li. This sincerity is really touching!
In fact, when we talked about Su Li's fate in private before, although everyone liked Xiao Lin very much, they felt that he was not a good match when thinking about his identity.
Su Li has already been hurt once. If she marries him in the future, she will have to share the same husband with many women. If she meets a woman like Jiang Qingge, who knows if she will be hurt again?
For this reason, Mrs. Su has always been very conflicted.
On the one hand, I feel that Xiao Lin is indeed very good and can be trusted for life, but when I think about the future, I feel that it is better not to have any emotional entanglement with him.
Hearing Xiao Lin's last words at this time, he no longer had any worries in his heart. He was filled with emotion and nodded hastily: "Okay, okay! Your Highness is so deeply affectionate to A Li, what else can I say? As long as you two love each other, I will You can’t ask for it!”
Su Li pursed his lips and chuckled when he heard this: "Grandma just listened to what he said and didn't even ask her granddaughter for her opinion?"
Old Madam Su laughed: "Then, let me ask you now, are you willing to marry His Highness the Crown Prince?"
Su Li looked at Xiao Lin and smiled without saying a word.
"A-Li, don't laugh all the time!" Xiao Lin said urgently, "Answer the old lady quickly!"
"Yes, yes!" Mrs. Xie also urged diligently, "Hurry up and tell me if you are willing?"
Su Li looked at Xiao Lin with gentle eyes.
She was unwilling to reveal her feelings to him before, not only because of herself, but also because she had the same concerns as Mrs. Su.
She had such a bad marriage in her previous life, and she was not willing to make the same mistake again, fighting for a man with any woman, and letting a good relationship turn from love to hatred in the end. .
But after experiencing the calamity of death, she no longer wanted to think about these things that had not happened yet.
After all, no one knows what the future will be like. It may collapse one day or the next.
Now she looks at her relationship with Xiao Lin with a detached mentality of not waiting until there are no flowers to break branches.
She didn't expect that he would decide to marry her for the rest of her life!
"Your Highness treats A Li like this, how can A Li not want to?" She walked up to Xiao Lin, took his hand, knelt down opposite him, and said word by word: "I have been pleased with Your Highness for a long time. I would like to marry you as my wife, and we will have a great life-and-death bond. I will marry you! Hold your hand and grow old together with your son!"
She is in love with this
When it comes to love, she has always been very restrained and reluctant to say a word of affection. Xiao Lin usually takes the initiative, and she rarely takes the initiative to express love.
This was the first time that she expressed her feelings to Xiao Lin so warmly and straightforwardly.
Xiao Lin heard it, and felt sweet in her heart. Regardless of the public, he held her in his arms and kissed her hard on the forehead!
Su Li was greatly embarrassed and stretched out his hand to push him: "Your Highness, there are so many people!"
"What are you afraid of?" Xiao Lin hugged her tighter, "Grandma has agreed to our marriage! Although it has not been a ceremony, we are already an unmarried couple, so we can be intimate and no one else will say anything!"
"That's right!" Xie Feiyu couldn't agree with this, and kept echoing: "Since we are lovers, the more intimate and sweet the better! Don't you think so?"
Everyone responded with a smile: "What the Flying General said is absolutely true! It is normal for a husband and wife to love each other!"
"Your Highness is only interested in being affectionate and doesn't care about the life or death of us bachelors!" Li Rufeng laughed loudly, "I have been waiting for so long, Your Highness, you are finally out of the bachelor ranks!"
"Congratulations, Your Highness! Congratulations, Your Highness!"
"May Your Highness and Miss Su stay in love forever!"
Everyone got up and started talking about good luck and blessings. In the end, they even yelled about having a baby early and holding two in one year and three in two years!
Although Su Li was thick-skinned, she had never experienced such a battle before. She couldn't help but blush with embarrassment and wanted to find a place to hide. However, Xiao Lin held her back and had no choice but to hide her blushing face in his arms. , turned around and saw Mrs. Xie sitting there, motionless, as if she was shocked by the news, and there seemed to be tears in her eyes.
Su Li suddenly thought that Mrs. Xie had not yet expressed her opinion on this matter, and couldn't help but feel a little nervous. Just as he was about to say something, he saw Mrs. Xie step forward, snatch her out of Xiao Lin's arms, and hold her tightly. Hold it in your arms!
"That's great! That's great!" She cried excitedly, "Ali, you don't know, we have been waiting for this day for a long time! I have always dreamed of you becoming Lin'er's wife! Now this dream has come true I am really, really happy!"
Su Li felt completely relaxed after being hugged by her, and his eyes felt hot.
In fact, when Xiao Lin asked for marriage, she was a little nervous.
She was afraid that Xie's family would object, especially an old lady like Mrs. Xie who was used to following the rules and would think that she was not a good match for Xiao Lin.
This was also the main reason why she tried to stop Xiao Lin just now.
She was even prepared to be rejected, thinking that the situation would definitely be a bit awkward, so how could she change the topic.
She didn't expect that Mrs. Xie not only didn't refuse, but also accepted her so happily and excitedly!
"Old madam, you are so... flattering!" Su Li's throat was slightly choked, and he didn't know what to say for a moment, "Ali is really... lucky to be liked by you!"
"No, Ali, we are so lucky to have met you!" Mrs. Xie said with a smile, "Lin'er has reached a high level for this marriage! He has such a father, it's like stepping on the tip of a knife. Live! Which daughter’s family is willing to accompany him in such dire straits? Ah Li, only you! He can find a fairy daughter as smart and beautiful as you, because his ancestors burned high incense! Haha!"
"Isn't that right?" Several daughters-in-law of the Xie family said one after another, "His Highness is able to win the favor of A Li, it is really his good fortune!"
"Your Highness and A Li are of equal appearance. They are a match made in heaven! Just like Tanlang Xie's daughter, they are a perfect match!"
"Your Highness has been thinking about it deeply, and Mother is deeply concerned about it. We people are also waiting eagerly. Today, our long-cherished wish has finally come true!" Mrs. Liu said cheerfully, "Mother, since their husband is in love and his concubine is interested, then this big We have to quickly urge the ministers of etiquette to take care of the wedding!"
"That's going to be a big deal!" Madam Xie said happily, "This is the wedding of the Crown Prince of Xiao!"
Having said this, he suddenly shook his head, "No no! Now that Xiao Hao has been deposed, your highness is still the prince, but he should ascend the throne early to calm the hearts of the people in the world! Your highness, in my opinion, it would be better if you go to the enthronement ceremony first, and then The post-registration ceremony will be held again. At that time, A-li will marry you.
I am Queen Xiao! In this way, it is a double happiness! Do you think it's okay? "
"Very good!" Xiao Lin nodded vigorously, "Ali, what do you think?"
"I feel great too!" Su Li looked at him with a smile, "It all depends on His Highness's arrangements!"
"Then it's settled!" Xiao Lin was overjoyed. He held her hand and stood up. He immediately ordered people to meet with the officials of the Ministry of Advocates to confirm all matters such as the enthronement and the title of queen as soon as possible.
"Ouch! I said I was in a hurry, but Your Highness is more anxious than me!" Old Madam Xie said with a smile, "But, Your Highness, since you are going to see your ministers, you should wash off this filth on your face and body first! Otherwise, the majestic king It’s somewhat unjustifiable to apply it like a painted-faced cat!”
Xiao Lin also smiled when he saw his rags.
"I'm going to wash it now!" He said, turning to look at Su Li, and seeing that she also looked like a cat with a painted face, he held her hand and said, "Ali, let's wash it together!"
As soon as these words came out, Su Li's face, which he finally replied with great difficulty, immediately turned red to the roots of his ears again!
When the guards heard what their master said, they all started to scream!
"Your Highness, what are you talking about...?" Li Rufeng laughed so hard that he fell down. Cheng Ying, who had always been calm, couldn't help but wink at this time. While he was laughing, several figures from outside the courtyard trotted in!
The person in the lead is Xu Qiang.
Xu Qiang and Chengyue have always been assigned to take care of Xiaofu and Ahli, and have never participated in the battle of Changfengdu.
Because Su Li and Xiao Lin had made a deliberate statement, they tried their best and did not dare to be careless at all.
But even so, in a flash, Xiaofu and Ahli suddenly disappeared. They were scared to death and searched everywhere. Later, when they heard the palace people said that they saw Xiaofu flying into the sky riding Ahri, they were shocked. I almost fainted.
