Chapter 445 The Emperor Wants to Grant Marriage (Edited)
"I have really learned a lot today. It turns out that different fertilizers have such effects!" said the emperor in surprise.
"That's right, Your Majesty!" said Old Master Gu, "I have been dealing with farming for half my life, so I am naturally familiar with these.
Moreover, I have taught my eldest son all my skills, and he will teach the agricultural officials in the future."
The emperor nodded with satisfaction. "On behalf of the people of the world, I would like to thank the Gu family for their righteousness!"
As the emperor spoke, he bowed and saluted to Master Gu and the others.
Seeing the emperor like this, Mr. Gu was so anxious that he retreated again and again.
"Your Majesty! You can't do that! You can't do that! It's only right for a minister to share your Majesty's worries.
Moreover, this matter benefits the country and the people. When we do this, we are also accumulating blessings for ourselves. Your Majesty must not do this. It is really embarrassing for us!
To be honest with you, Your Majesty, there are still many new and interesting things in our valley.
If His Majesty thanks us like this every time we give out these, I'm afraid we will hesitate when we want to give out something to help the people in the future." Old Master Gu said anxiously.
At the end, his tone was filled with helplessness.
"I am so happy and excited! We, my grandparents and grandchildren, have benefited a lot from you, but the rewards of some official positions are really not enough.
How about we marry our children to each other?" the emperor said.
In an instant, the topic that was tacitly known to both parties was brought up.
None of the Gu family members expected that the emperor would change the subject so quickly.
I just thought about the abnormality of my granddaughter and the secrets beyond our time such as robots and mobile phones.
It has not been discovered yet. Although there are some new products in the valley, there are also some books collected in the Gu Valley and what everyone in the valley has learned in the past few years.
It is reasonable to say that it was left by the original owner of the valley, or that it was developed by the people in the valley.
After all, the emperor's grandson had personally witnessed the creation of some of these things.
But on the basis of these things, there is a most hidden secret, which is also the beginning of all this, that is Fu'er's "magic weapon".
If my granddaughter can hide for a lifetime, it's fine.
However, Fu'er has developed the habit of using it freely in front of her family since she was a child. She might be able to hide it from Ajing, but what if she has children in the future?
It's not good to hide it from the child! I can't just bear not using it. What will happen if I use it and get discovered...
If his granddaughter reveals the secret in the future, what will Ajing think?
People's hearts are fickle! What kind of ending will my granddaughter face then?
Old Master Gu didn't want to hinder his granddaughter's happiness because of a worry that hadn't happened in the future.
But I'm also afraid of that one in ten thousand chance.
Like him, everyone in the Gu family was also struggling in their hearts at this moment.
They had also thought about the same problems that Mr. Gu had thought about, and were also worried about them.
When Gu Fu heard the emperor talking about this topic, he was also surprised. He was waiting to see whether his family would agree, but he saw that his family members fell silent in tacit understanding.
When Song Renjing heard the emperor mention the engagement, his heart began to tense up.
I felt happy and nervous at the same time.
I was afraid of hearing the Gu family’s refusal, but I couldn’t help but look forward to the scene after the Gu family agreed.
Old Master Gu thought of all the worries in his heart and knelt down with difficulty to pay his respects to the emperor.
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty. Please forgive me for not agreeing. My granddaughter has just grown up and has been traveling around all these years. I would like to keep her for a few more years. I hope Your Majesty will grant me your permission."
The emperor was stunned for a moment when he experienced the first time he issued an imperial decree to grant a marriage but was rejected.
The power of heaven is inviolable!
The emperor only felt a trace of shame and anger in his chest, which made him want to vent.
This Duke Protector of the Country, does he know who he is rejecting?
Does he know the significance of this arranged marriage?
Song Renjing is his grandson and the only heir to the country.
With the marriage arranged by him personally, the little daughter of his Gu family will become the heiress of the Great Xia in the future!
What an honor it was, but what did he get, he was rejected!
Years of self-control allowed him to endure it. He tried hard to recall the good things about the Gu family. Only then did he calm down within three breaths.
"Ah Jing is already over 20 years old and can't wait any longer.
If I remember correctly, Fu'er is already fifteen years old this year, right? In our Great Xia, at this age, you can already decide on a marriage."
The emperor tried to keep his tone calm, took a step back and continued asking.
"I am so sorry, Your Majesty! My three sons are now fulfilling their own ambitions outside the valley.
My granddaughter is the only one who takes care of my daily life.
My son Fu'er is fifteen years old, but he is still young.
Like his brothers, they all got engaged when they were eighteen or nineteen years old.
My Fuer is not in a hurry either.
We, the ministers, would never dare to delay the emperor's grandson's life event, so please find another good match." Mr. Gu had already said the beginning of his refusal, and he spoke more and more fluently.
At the beginning, as Mr. Gu knelt down.
Everyone in the Gu family also knelt down.
Gu Fu felt that his grandfather's answer was unexpected, yet reasonable.
Gu Fu never thought that her grandfather, a native of Da Xia, would actually fight against the imperial power for her.
But when I think about my grandfather's character and the love he has shown me, I feel that his refusal at this time is understandable.
He then knelt down and listened quietly to Mr. Gu's refusal.
Although I don't know what my grandfather's concerns are specifically, I think it's because of my own reasons and for the purpose of protecting her.
Song Renjing saw that none of the Gu family members approved of the marriage and were unwilling to even get engaged.
I was afraid that the emperor would get angry and punish the Gu family.
He was also afraid that the Gu family would be even more disapproving of his marriage with Sister Fu'er.
Everything was fine yesterday, why are the Gu family so disgusted when this matter is mentioned today?
Although he didn't understand the reason, he knew that his royal grandfather could not force him any more at this time.
He knelt down and said to the emperor: "Grandpa Emperor, I am not in a hurry. I am willing to wait for my sister Fuer to grow up.
In this life, Ajing only wishes to spend his life with his sister Fuer.
Although Ajing didn't know what he did wrong, it made Grandpa Gu worried.
But as long as Grandpa Gu can tell Ah Jing, Ah Jing will definitely be willing to change. "
After Song Renjing comforted the Emperor, he spoke sincerely to Old Man Gu.
The Gu family looked at Song Renjing like this. Although he was not their descendant, they had watched him grow up together since he was a child.
He is so outstanding and his status is so high.
If he is a match for Fu'er, then he is definitely a match.
But thinking of my granddaughter's secret...
People’s minds are fickle, especially those of young people.
If Fu'er's secret is exposed in the future, that would be when Ajing's mind changes. By then, would his granddaughter be burned to death as an alien?
