Hearing Yu Yi's words, Da Tou was greatly surprised, "What does the Emperor mean by not mentioning a word? Has he not received the news yet?"

I don't know how the emperor reacted when Yu Yi handed over the memorial, so I can't make random guesses.

Yu Yi quickly came to the front, "Your Majesty, I have personally delivered the memorial to the Emperor. The Emperor read it in person and was overjoyed. He had many words of praise for you. He also mentioned the fact that we annihilated the Japanese pirates from Gupo Mountain. He only said that you are

The God-given general of the Tang Dynasty and the pillar holding up the sky, he also said that you have made unparalleled achievements and deserve a heavy reward and title. Next time we return to the court, we must inform you in advance, and he will personally command all the civil and military officials to come out of the city to welcome you."

"What else did the emperor say?" he asked casually.

Yu Yi took out a roll of yellow silk from his sleeve, "The emperor didn't say much, he just asked me to bring back an imperial edict."

Seeing the imperial edict is like seeing the emperor himself. Ordinary officials should kneel down to receive it, but they have the privilege not to kneel when they see the emperor, so they did not get up and were about to reach out to receive the imperial edict. Unexpectedly, Yu Yi handed the imperial edict to Ni Chenyi.

"Your Majesty, this imperial edict from the Emperor is given to Miss Ni."

Hearing this, his brows instantly furrowed, while Ni Chenyi at the side happily took the imperial edict, spread it out eagerly, and quickly read it.

Seeing Ni Chenyi beaming with joy and smiling, Datou Duo was confused, "Miss, what does the imperial edict say?"

"What do you think?" Ni Chenyi pretended.

"You were forced to leave by the imperial court back then. Now that the Tang Dynasty is in trouble, you have given generously regardless of past grievances. The emperor will definitely reward you," Datou guessed, "Does the emperor want to invite you back to Chang'an?"

"No." Ni Chenyi smiled.

"Are you going to make Duke Ji the king?" Datou guessed again.

"No," Ni Chenyi shook his head and looked over, "What do you think?"

"You don't have to guess, I know what's written on it." He tilted his head to the side.

Seeing that Ni Chenyi was trying to pass things off, Datou became more and more curious, "Miss, what exactly does the imperial edict say?"

Ni Chenyi did not answer, but handed the imperial edict to Datou.

Datou took the imperial edict and lowered his head to read it. Although the imperial edict was brought back by Yu Yi, Yu Yi had never read it before. Therefore, when Datou was reading it, she and Shi Xuanming went over. Yang Kai was holding a cup of tea, and

Did not come forward.

"Ah, congratulations, young lady, the emperor has made you the princess." Da Tou congratulated Ni Chenyi halfway through reading, and then continued to read. After reading the full text of the imperial edict, Da Tou and the other three looked at each other in confusion, and then turned to look.

"But the marriage was granted?" he asked casually.

The three of them all nodded, probably thinking that their shock and consternation were not polite.

The three of them rushed to congratulate Ni Chenyi, and Yang Kai on the side also stood up to congratulate him.

"It's true that money can make the world go round." Duo You said with emotion. The Ni family has made such a big deal, and the imperial court must give them an explanation. The Ni family will definitely not return to Chang'an again. The emperor also knows this very well, and the emperor

He also knew that Ni Chenyi had always liked him, so he directly gave her a favor.

"You're so unhappy about giving me a status?" Ni Chenyi looked at him.

"How can I be unhappy? This is expected," he said casually. "You also know that so much food and grass has been transported, the imperial court will definitely give you an explanation."

"Then why are you drooping?" Ni Chenyi asked with a smile.

He waved to Datou, who saw this and handed him the imperial edict in a hurry. After reading it quickly, he said, "It's just as I expected."

"What's not what you expected?" Ni Chenyi asked.

He casually returned the imperial edict to Ni Chenyi, "Look at this edict carefully and see if there are any problems."

Ni Chenyi took the imperial edict and read it carefully, "There is no problem."

"Chen Yi, the eldest daughter of the Ni family, is conferred the title of Princess Yongle and betrothed to Prince Yong as his concubine." Repeated a sentence in the imperial edict.

"Isn't the title Princess Yongle good?" Datou was also confused.

Yang Kai seemed to have discovered the clue, and he hesitated to speak several times, but finally did not speak.

"There is no problem with the title. The problem is with betrothing Prince Yong as his concubine." She said in a deep voice.

Ni Chenyi didn't pay attention at first, but after being reminded, he discovered the problem, "Yes, we are both princesses, and we have two sides. Why is it not stated clearly in the imperial edict?"

Frowning in silence, the three of them were puzzled. After hesitation, Yang Kai said, "This is not a careless omission, but intentional."

Ni Chenyi was extremely intelligent. He was just overwhelmed by joy before. After calming down, he immediately understood the reason. "The emperor clearly knows that I have no intention of suppressing my uncle. This move is intended to sow discord. If Zhang Zhenren and his uncle know this,

Even if you don't say anything about it, you will inevitably have a grudge in your heart."

He said in a deep voice, "Just after the battle at Gupo Mountain, I rushed to the Western Regions non-stop. The emperor granted me a marriage at this time. Even if I didn't go to Shu to ask for it, I went to Shu to ask for it. I couldn't wash it off even if I jumped into the Yellow River.

"

"No, absolutely not," Ni

Chen Yi said seriously, "You and my uncle have known each other for a long time. Regardless of seniority or qualifications, your uncle should be the right one. I can't ask for this imperial edict. Master Yu Yi, I'd like to bother you again..."

Before Ni Chenyi could finish speaking, he waved his hand and interrupted her, "If we send the imperial edict back and ask the emperor to correct it, it means that in our opinion the emperor did it deliberately, and we have seen through his trick."

"It makes sense. If you really send me back, you'll break your skin and we won't be able to see each other again," Datou Duo said angrily, "What on earth does the emperor want to do? Judging from his attitude, he still listened to the slanders of those clean civil servants."

"The emperor has been wary of us for more than a day or two," he said. "The reason why the imperial court took action against the Ni family back then was because it was worried that Zhenren Zhang would have military power, and I was in a high position. If I got funding from the Ni family again, I would have trouble.

Now, Luoyang is in the hands of Zhang Zhenren and Qingyang is in my hands. The combined strength of both sides is 300,000. It is reasonable for the emperor not to want the relationship between Longhu Mountain and the Ni family to be too good.

.”

After saying that, Ni Chenyi said seriously, "What you said makes sense. Since I can't let the emperor correct me, I'll just resign. I don't want this title anymore."

Seeing that Ni Chenyi understood the general situation and took the overall situation into consideration, he was deeply moved. "Jun Wuxi, do you think you can get the imperial edict if you want it, and don't want it if you don't want it? What will the emperor think if he really sends the imperial edict back? He will

Don’t you think we are arrogant and disobeying orders?”

"Then what do you think we should do?" Ni Chenyi was helpless...??.

There is no answer. Not everything has a proper solution. No matter how you do this, it is wrong. Women attach great importance to status. When the emperor married Zhang Mo, he was not a prince, so Zhang Mo could not be granted the title.

Princess, but at this time he has been made king, and Ni Chenyi has been made concubine. Even if Zhang Mo is reasonable, Zhang Shan will definitely not agree.

"I'm going to find my dad." Ni Chenyi turned and left.

After Ni Chenyi went out and walked away, everyone took their seats. Da Tou Duo was worried, "Why is this matter so awkward?"

Yang Kai pushed the snacks on the table to Yu Yi, "Our strength is too strong, strong enough to make anyone afraid."

Yu Yichong nodded to Yang Kai, then said, "The emperor deliberately did not mention the Kunlun Immortal Palace, and he must not have wanted us to get the protective talisman."

Datou said angrily, "Okay, then let others snatch it away. When the time comes, they will enter the palace and assassinate him. No one can stop them."

When everyone was discussing matters, Shi Xuanming rarely interrupted, but this time he couldn't help but say, "Your Majesty has raised his head to the sky many times.

You have never been corrupted for personal gain, so why can’t you earn back the emperor’s trust?”

"God knows what is going on in this guy's mind. He uses us and is on guard against us. Damn it. If he continues to be so suspicious all day long, let's just..."

"What?!" He raised his eyebrows and tilted his head.

Seeing the serious expression on his face, Datou hurriedly changed his words, "I'll just give up my job."

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's go back to the house and rest." He said.

Everyone stood up after hearing the sound, and Datou asked casually, "Your Majesty, if the emperor doesn't mention the Kunlun Immortal Palace, should we go in two days or not?"

"I won't go." He was also a little angry.

"Will he send Liu Tianlin and the others to snatch it?" Datou asked again. The Liu Tianlin he mentioned was the commander of the Yulin Army and the emperor's confidant.

"It's possible." He said.

"Isn't he afraid that Liu Tianlin will usurp the throne?" Datou frowned.

Said, "Although Liu Tianlin is a Taixuan cultivator, he is only in charge of the Yulin Imperial Guard and does not have much military power. What's more, this person does not have strong financial support."

"Okay, Datou, stop talking. The prince is tired, let's go back to the room first." Yu Yi reached out and pulled Datou.

He looked up at Yu Yi and said, "You didn't have lunch. Take some of the fruit snacks on the table and take them back."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, we also have fruit snacks in our room." Yu Yi took Datou out and the four of them went back to their rooms.

It is the hot summer season, and the temperature difference between day and night in the Western Region is very large. It is very hot in the afternoon. As the saying goes, people feel refreshed during happy events, and they feel depressed and sleepy. After Datou waited for others to leave, he sat on his seat for a while and soon felt depressed.

Feeling tired and sleepy, he stood up and went to the inner room to lie down and rest.

In the evening, everyone got up one after another to enjoy the cool air in the pavilion in the yard. The Ni family was rich and purchased seasonal fruits several times a day. This time, they delivered watermelons from the Western Regions. The watermelons here are much larger than those grown by Dazhong.

.

Hearing Ni Chenyi's voice from the yard, he got up and walked out. Seeing him coming, Datou hurriedly picked up a piece of watermelon and handed it over.

He waved his hand but didn't take it, and turned to Ni Chenyi and asked, "What does your father think of this?"

"My father made a bet with me." Ni Chenyi looked quite relaxed.

"What bet?" he asked casually.
