084 Asking for dowry
At the beginning of the year, when the Yan army retreated, all the ministers praised Eleven. In addition, Eleven was extremely beautiful, and some nobles even considered taking her as their concubine.
But as the news came again and again that the missing daughter of an aristocratic official was sent to the bed of Pingyang Marquis, everyone's eyes on Eleven changed from admiration to hatred, but it was because she was the Emperor of Yue. No one dared to touch her, as was the person the great wizard valued.
At this moment, they learned that the Yan army was advancing and that they were on the verge of destroying the country. Their hatred for Eleven was soaring into the clouds. They wished they could skin Eleven alive in this hall.
Of course they didn't dare to take action. If they didn't dare to take action, they just turned to talking and angrily complained that Eleven was an unlucky person. If she stayed in the Snake Country, she would anger the gods and bring disaster to the country.
Logically, Eleven should be burned to appease the anger of the gods.
But since the Yan army promised to win the eleventh, they withdrew the army stationed in Hehuan Forest.
Then we should hand over the eleventh day to the Yan army in exchange for the Yue Emperor to ensure peace in the world.
The great wizard pretended to be in trouble, "This wizard understands everyone's patriotism and love for the people, and hopes to maintain peace in the country. But Eleven is the person protected by Lord Snake Marquis. If he is sent to the Yan Kingdom, what happens to Lord Snake Marquis?" Come back and take the blame, but I can't bear it."
Eleven sneered, the great wizard came to find her, just to 'hand over' her to solve the urgent need, but he was worried about the Snake Hou, so he played such a trick.
Even if the Snake Lord comes back and blames others, he can still put the blame on the ministers.
Sure enough, someone stepped forward and said: "Not to mention that Master Shehou has been missing for more than half a year. Even if Master Shehou is here, he will definitely put the overall situation first. He will definitely not ignore His Majesty's safety or Vietnam for the sake of a little girl. The survival of the country.”
The other ministers hurriedly echoed in unison, and each word was more encouraging than the other. They simply described Shiyi as a sinister evildoer who was causing harm to the country and the people.
Because of her existence, the country of Yue will be in great danger and must be resolved as soon as possible.
The great wizard's triangular eyes flashed slightly, but he looked like he was moving but still hesitant, and said: "Being a concubine to Marquis Pingyang requires her own consent."
If the king of a country wants to designate a woman to be his concubine, he does not need the consent of the woman herself.
What's more, it's a low-status dead soldier.
The great wizard and Yue Ji share power. In Yue Ji's absence, he is equivalent to the king.
There was a hint of disdain at the corner of Eleven's mouth.
The great wizard said this just to 'force' Eleven to make a promise personally.
Because with Shi Yi's skills, if he refused to go to the Yan Kingdom, something would inevitably happen on the way and she would run away, and Pingyang Marquis would definitely not give up.
As soon as the great wizard finished speaking, all the ministers refused to obey, and someone shouted angrily: "The country is the most important thing in everything. As a dead soldier of the Yue Kingdom, she should be proud to shed blood for the country and the people, let alone just be a concubine for others." concubine."
Another person said: "Although the two countries of Yue and Yan are at odds, Marquis Pingyang is the legitimate son of the royal family. Shiyi is just a pariah. A pariah can be a concubine for the prince. It is a beautiful thing to fly on a branch and become a phoenix. How can she not be like this?" Ken Zhili?"
These people, with one word and one word with me, insisted on handing over Shi Yi to the Marquis of Pingyang, which was a compliment to Shi Yi. If she didn't go, she would be ignorant.
Although Shiyi knew that she had to go to Pingyang Mansion, she was so angry when she heard these sarcastic remarks.
None of these people knew that Marquis Pingyang was poisoned by the Snake King. Seven days after he was in Marquis Pingyang's body, he turned into withered bones and had no way to survive anymore. His death was miserable and horrific.
This matter was not mentioned at all, but it seemed to be a great favor to her.
The great wizard pretended to sigh and looked at Eleven, "Since you left the 'gate' of life and death, you have done a lot of great things, which is not what you should be doing... But, now that things have happened, there is nothing I can do..."
Judging from his appearance, he really looks like a person who attaches great importance to love and righteousness. It is really a forced move to give up the tenth.
Eleven didn't bother to look at the great wizard's hypocritical face and interrupted him coldly, "What's going on?"
"How are you today?" Since Eleven agreed, the great wizard no longer had to waste time pretending.
Eleven Company's eyes were filled with ice, they really couldn't wait.
But she also wanted to see her mother earlier and try to rescue her mother.
He glanced at the righteous ministers in the palace, and suddenly smiled, "Yanjing is far away, and it is too lonely for me to travel alone. Since it is such an honor to be the concubine of Pingyanghou, why don't I talk to Pingyanghou and take your daughters with me?" "The Marquis of Pingyang must be willing to have my son as my companion. Unprepared for the fact that Marquis Pingyang was happy, he not only withdrew his army, but also became an ally with the Yue Kingdom."
As soon as these words came out, everyone was furious. Who the hell is Eleven? He actually wanted to drag their daughter to be buried with him.
The angry flames spurting out of his eyes could burn Shiyi into thousands of holes, and curses spread everywhere, "You are a thief, and you have colluded with Marquis Pingyang for a long time, causing harm to the country of Yue. Now that Marquis Pingyang asks you to come over, just go." How dare you say such rebellious words."
Shiyi glanced at the man lightly and said: "Since I have suspected collusion with Marquis Pingyang for a long time, in order to show my innocence, I really can't go on this trip to Yanjing."
The man choked, blushed, and became even more angry, "The great wizard has spoken, and you have personally agreed. How can you go back on your word now?"
Eleven said calmly: "I agreed, but I didn't say whether I would go alive or dead. If I die here, it will be the same if you carry my body."
Everyone gasped, how could this be the same?
If they send Shi Yi's body, Marquis Pingyang will be able to send Yue Ji's body back. Then, if the miasma fades away and Marquis Pingyang's cavalry comes, none of them will survive.
The great wizard glared down and said kindly to Eleven: "I know that I have wronged you by asking you to marry so far away. I have already ordered you to go down and prepare everything for you according to the courtesy of a princess marrying outside. A generous dowry. In addition, if you have any requests, feel free to ask for them. Whatever this witch can do, I will definitely do it for you."
Eleven sneered, when he arrived on Pingyang Hou's couch, he turned into withered bones in seven days. No matter how much gold, silver and jewels were used to wrap those bones, what's the use?
"Eleven requires the reserve here. Each household will give two 'daughters' to marry the eleven. These two 'daughters' must have direct descendants. Those who do not have direct descendants must not use any servant girls to make up the number. .As for the dowry for the National Day, I will give it to these daughters to buy flowers to wear."
As soon as these words came out, everyone was so angry that they almost died.
The man who had angered Eleven just now couldn't help but cursed: "You bitch, don't be so shameless..."
Shiyi snorted coldly and interrupted: "In that case, I really don't want this face anymore. If you want to send me to Pingyang Mansion, just carry my body there." After that, he turned and walked out of the palace. Go, look cold and cold.
The great wizard's heart skipped a beat and he called out urgently: "Eleven, stay." Then he snorted loudly and said coldly: "The imperial officials have repeatedly disturbed the palace and forced Eleven to go to the Yan Kingdom for marriage. Seeing the safety of the Yue Kingdom as nothing, he pulled him down and chopped him up outside the 'door'."
The man broke out in a cold sweat. Before he could say anything, he was picked up by two officers and soldiers and dragged outside the palace. They let him shout as much as he wanted. He raised his knife and dropped it. His big head rolled down the white jade steps, bleeding all over. land.
Only then did all the ministers wake up. If Shi Shi is pushed into a hurry at this time and really refuses to go to Pingyang Mansion, his whole family, young and old, will be guillotined first without waiting for the Yan army to invade.
In an instant, no one dared to speak anymore.
Eleven watched with cold eyes, the great wizard had really spent a lot of money in order to quell this war.
There was no expression on his face, and his eyes swept over everyone in the hall one by one.
Every minister she looked at looked nervous and stepped back subconsciously.
Shiyi pretended not to see it, smiled slightly and said: "In that case, I will wait here for you all."
No one dared to provoke Eleven anymore, but they couldn't let their daughter accompany Eleven to die, so they looked at the great wizard.
The great wizard coughed slightly and looked towards Eleven.
Before he could speak, Eleven raised his chin slightly and looked directly at the great wizard, his expression indifferent, with no room for turning around.
The great wizard frowned. It was really offending to have two daughters in each family. If he obeyed, he would lose people's hearts.
But Shiyi knew that he would die if he went here. He died under Marquis Pingyang, and he killed himself with a knife. There was a huge difference between the two ways of death.
Whoever it was, he would choose to kill himself with one knife, and he would not have to suffer those crimes.
These guys spoke freely and did not know how to measure, which angered Eleven. Now Eleven clearly wants their daughters to be buried with them.
If he doesn't agree to Eleven, looking at Eleven's expression at this time, he will definitely not go to Pingyang Mansion, and the consequences will be even more disastrous.
Although Eleven is young, he has experienced the gate of life and death and fought his way out of the Black Tower. Now he has a cold face and an awe-inspiring aura that is intimidating.
"Since you are all good ministers who love the country and the people, you will not be reluctant to part with these two daughters." There was no room for change in his tone.
Cold sweat broke out on the foreheads of all the ministers, and despair gradually arose. They regretted that they had just used their tongues and caused great trouble, and now they really wanted to chew their tongues away.
The palace officials came to report in a hurry, saying that Yan Fang was impatient with waiting and had issued a death order. If no one was seen before sunset, he would wait to collect Yue Ji's body.
The great wizard felt a headache and became worried, "Since it is a national crisis, all the ministers should do more. Everyone, please go back and make arrangements to send your daughter here within an hour."
Eleven smiled brightly and said: "Every young lady, Eleven knows a lot of them. Don't send two girls over randomly in an attempt to fool them. If there are any who try to fool them, , it would be bad if someone recognized you and missed the time."
Her tone was calm, but the threat in her words was clear.
The great wizard's forehead was throbbing with veins, and he wished he could hack him to death in the palace.
If all the ministers send two counterfeit goods, the only loss in the ministers' family will be two slaves, but no bones or muscles.
Although this incident would make all the ministers dissatisfied, it was easy to appease him afterwards and it would not hurt the relationship between him and the ministers.
However, it was the ministers' own daughters who were harmed, and the grudge became more serious.
He knew clearly that Eleven was intentionally harming him, but he was unable to do anything about it.
(Seeing this, you may have felt that the plot of our introduction is coming soon. Those who didn’t understand the introduction before should have no doubts now, right? I would like to express my special thanks to see_an.)
