Chapter 244 - 244 Sick From Anger
244 Sick From Anger
When the crown prince heard this, he knew that something was wrong. He asked the emperor calmly, “I wonder what Father’s plans are?”
“Plan? I plan to let Jiang Ying marry Princess Mingyue of Russia!” the emperor replied.
When the crown prince and Jiang Huan heard that the emperor really wanted Jiang Ying to marry the princess of Russia, they were so frightened that they knelt on the ground.
“Father, please reconsider!”
“Imperial Brother, think twice!”
Seeing the two of them, the emperor was so angry that his vision darkened and he fainted.
“Quick, call the imperial physician!” The crown prince shouted outside the door.
The emperor was furious today. Not only did he care about the dowry from Russia, but he also cared about the benefits of the marriage between Russia and the Great Yun Nation.
Except…
The Crown Prince felt that if the emperor’s actions made Ning Yue leave with resentment, that would be the loss of the Great Yun Nation!
“Imperial Uncle, leave this to me. Go back first. I’ll persuade Father well,” the Crown Prince said to Jiang Huan.
In other words, he told Jiang Huan not to worry. He would definitely bear this responsibility.
Jiang Huan looked at the crown prince gratefully. If not for the crown prince, he would probably vomit blood from anger today.
Actually, before the crown prince came, he had already gotten someone to send the letter to Jiang Ying.
No matter what, Jiang Ying and Ning Yue were the ones involved. They should enter the palace and explain their determination to the emperor.
The matter was more urgent. Jiang Ying received the crown prince’s letter the next day.
His expression changed drastically and he quickly went to look for Ning Yue. “Yueyue, there’s something I don’t know how to tell you. I hope you can help me.”
His expression changed drastically and he quickly went to look for Ning Yue. “Yueyue, there’s something I don’t know how to tell you. I hope you can help me.”
“No, it’s not about the silver. It’s about this.” As he spoke, Jiang Ying took out the crown prince’s letter.
The general content of the letter was that the emperor wanted Jiang Ying to marry Princess Mingyue of Russia.
Ning Yue couldn’t help but laugh. “Jiang Ying, you’re too cute. Don’t forget what the emperor gave me.”
Jiang Ying looked at Ning Yue in confusion. “Princess Mingyue, Yueyue, we…”
Jiang Ying wanted to tell Ning Yue not to talk about the title, but he suddenly remembered something.
The Emperor of Russia, Yuan Hui, was Ning Yue’s uncle. According to this relationship, she was indeed the legitimate princess of Russia.
Therefore, the person he was about to marry was very likely Ning Yue!
He was delighted and quickly asked, “So Uncle has already acknowledged me?”
When Ning Yue heard this, her face turned red. “Dream on! Does everyone have to acknowledge you?”
“It doesn’t matter if others don’t acknowledge me. It’s enough as long as you acknowledge me,” Jiang Ying said.
Ning Yue’s face turned even redder. She had lived for two lifetimes but had never been in a relationship. Jiang Ying said a few words of love in front of her, and her face turned as red as an apple.
“How many girls have you said that too?” Ning Yue asked.
“I swear that I’ve only told you this in my life. I’m telling the truth.” Seeing that Ning Yue was about to misunderstand, Jiang Ying quickly explained.
“Alright, let’s not talk about this anymore. When the time comes, I’ll explain to everyone that I’m Princess Mingyue of Russia,” Ning Yue said.
Jiang Ying nodded, then thought of something. “Ning Yue, why don’t we take this opportunity to enter the capital?”
“Why are you entering the capital?” Ning Yue looked at him in confusion.
“If you’re only a princess conferred by the emperor, this betrothal gift is enough, but you’re now the legitimate princess of Russia. According to the rules, the Great Yun Nation will pay as much as Russia pays.”
“The dowry Uncle gave includes two cities, ten thousand taels of gold, ten thousand taels of silver, and various jewelry, jade pendants, various famous paintings, tools, and so on. That value can’t be exchanged for ten or twenty thousand taels of gold.”
“The fief Uncle Emperor gave you is a town. Moreover, the betrothal gift he gave is not even enough to pay ten thousand taels of gold. This is a huge loss.” Jiang Ying actually had designs on the emperor.
Ning Yue smiled. She liked it!
“But the treasury of the Great Yun Nation isn’t full now, right? It should be difficult to give so many betrothal gifts, right?” Ning Yue said.
“The treasury is not full, but Uncle Emperor’s small treasury can support it,” Jiang Ying said.
Ning Yue slapped her thigh. “Yes, how could I have forgotten the wealth your uncle the emperor has saved for decades!”
“Why don’t we enter the capital with Uncle this time?” Jiang Ying asked Ning Yue.
