Chapter 136: I Think I Just Heard Something Shocking
Emperor Yong’an sighed and frowned while thinking, ’If it weren’t for my weakness, Fu Huang would not have sent A Quan to the battlefield so he could hand over military power to a ten-year-old boy. I really don’t know how to compensate for his sacrifice. Should I find him a wife to accompany him in his lonely life?’
Noticing that his elder cousin suddenly stopped talking, Xuan Ruiquan raised his eyes to look at Emperor Yong’an and asked, "What’s wrong? Are those old foxes bothering you again? Do you need me to help you take care of them?"
Hearing Xuan Ruiquan’s questions, Emperor Yong’an came back from his thoughts and smiled, "I was just thinking about those ministers and generals who asked about you."
Xuan Ruiquan raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "Do you want me to teach them a lesson?"
Emperor Yong’an listened to his words and chuckled, "Silly. They just want to know if you have any intention of getting married. Some of them even asked me to issue a marriage decree to you and their daughter."
As soon as he finished speaking, the temperature in the room dropped sharply. Emperor Yong’an was trembling with cold and said displeasedly, "Why are you angry? I’m just answering your question."
Xuan Ruiquan was well aware of his elder cousin’s willfulness and warned him, "Your Majesty, I have told you not to interfere in my private life. If you have too much free time, how about I choose a woman for you? You are twenty-seven years old, and your back palace is still empty. Now, you should at least marry an empress, right?"
As soon as these words came out, Emperor Yong’an hurriedly stood up and walked to Xuan Ruiquan. He patted Xuan Ruiquan on the shoulder and said seriously, "Who needs a woman? We are both too young to get married. A Quan, let’s not get married in this life!"
Brushing off Emperor Yong’an’s hand, Xuan Ruiquan muttered in a low voice, "Who said I don’t want to get married in this life? As long as she agrees, I will marry her without hesitation."
