Chapter 172: Being a Perfect Man in My Fair Princess (7)
Seya hid in Ertai's arms, her face blushing. She seemed to have met the warrior she liked, and this competition, which was called a test but was actually a match for a husband, could be stopped.
The King of Tibet knew his daughter well, so he immediately praised the Emperor and Ziwei a few words, then called a halt to the competition. He planned to discuss the marriage with the Emperor in private, as a way to find support for his daughter.
In the future, no other country will be able to invade Tibet at will, as the Qing Dynasty is their best backing. Moreover, Ertai is not a prince, so there is no need to worry that after their children inherit the throne, Tibet will completely become a subordinate of the Qing Dynasty.
The King of Tibet was making a lot of calculations, but Seya knew nothing about it. She looked at Xiaoyanzi and Ziwei and felt very fond of them.
At night, a banquet was held. Xiaoyanzi took Seya, Ziwei, and Qing'er and others sneaked out and drank and chatted in Shufangzhai. Xiaoyanzi and Ziwei started to talk to each other: "Princess He'an, you are really amazing. How do you practice martial arts? Teach me too."
"You don't understand this, Ziwei is born with supernatural powers, you can't learn it, even I can only envy her."
"What a pity! If I were so powerful, I wouldn't have to hold a martial arts competition to win a husband today." Seya was a little depressed. It was true that she fell in love with Ertai at first sight and liked Ertai, but she hoped that she was also very powerful.
"Isn't a martial arts competition for a bride a test of martial arts?" Xiaoyanzi was still a little confused.
"Yes, my father will choose a prince consort for me through a martial arts competition. When I become the King of Tibet in the future, he will be my father." Seya was quite interested in talking about this.
Ziwei became even more interested: "You mean, in the future, you will inherit the position of King of Tibet?"
"Yes, just like the queen of some barbaric land."
"I know this. There is a queen in Tsarist Russia, and there are also some countries where the queen ascends the throne," Xiaoyanzi interrupted. Several girls chattered, and only Qing'er remained silent.
"Qing'er, why don't you speak?" Ziwei looked at the silent Qing'er in confusion.
"I am listening to you, but there is no precedent for this in the Qing Dynasty. If I say too much, I am afraid the emperor will get angry, right?"
Yes, the precedent set by Empress Xiaozhuang was still there, and the sign that the harem could not interfere in politics was also posted. Xiaoyanzi and Ziwei could not help but remain silent, but their words were accidentally heard by the Empress at the door.
"The Queen?" The Queen thought, if there was an empress in the Qing Dynasty, with her knowledge, she should be able to become a female official, rather than a queen who followed the rules and was cautious.
"Empress, should we still deliver this soup?" Madam Rong was holding the food box, with a puzzled look on her face.
"No need, let them play, let's go back." The queen originally wanted to come and comfort the brave girls, but now it seems there is no need to disturb them.
Of course, there cannot be an empress, after all, Shiyi cannot suddenly turn himself into a woman, but there can still be female officials, and there is a candidate for a female general right now.
Finally, the emperor arranged the marriage between Seya and Ertai, and promoted Ertai's entire family as a reward and compensation for Ertai. He also arranged the marriage between Xiaoyanzi and Yongqi, and the wedding date was set for Erkang and Qing'er together. The King of Tibet and his entourage also left the Qing Dynasty.
After the marriage of Yongqi and Xiaoyanzi was settled, the only person who was dissatisfied was Concubine Yu. Concubine Yu threatened to commit suicide if Yongqi did not marry Xiaoyanzi. Seeing the evil Concubine Yu, the Queen Mother took action.
"Concubine Yu, I feel that Mount Wutai is quieter here. You should go back and copy Buddhist scriptures for me." With just these few words, Concubine Yu was taken away. Yongqi bid farewell to his mother in tears.
Concubine Ling also followed Concubine Yu to leave, but was pulled by Concubine Yu and asked to supervise Yongqi. Concubine Ling was speechless: "This is the marriage granted by the emperor, the golden words and jade words, do you want Yongqi to disobey the order, sister Concubine Yu, please don't harm the two children?"
Concubine Yu kept silent and left the palace.
The Qing Dynasty and Huijiang are about to go to war, Ziwei volunteered to go to the battlefield: "Father, I am also your child, why can't I go to the battlefield? I also have the ability to protect myself."
"I know you are born with supernatural powers, but unfortunately you are a woman. If you were a man, I would definitely not stop you..."
"Your Majesty, so what if I'm a woman? I heard a few days ago that the Russian Empress wrote to you. Can't I even be the first female general of the Qing Dynasty?" Ziwei's words became increasingly sharp, which made the emperor a little unhappy.
"Ziwei, you are a princess of the Qing Dynasty"
"Your Majesty, the Empress requests an audience," the eunuch came to report, breaking the heavy atmosphere.
"Don't say that again, let the queen in."
After the queen came in, she smiled at Ziwei, then saluted the emperor and said, "I came here for He'an."
