The Royal Family's Orphan is on the Rise

Chapter 414 Shen Jiarou Disagrees with the Princess' Marriage

At this time, Shen Jiarou was asking Concubine De and the Third Princess in Zhaolan Palace.

"My Lady Defei, Third Sister, what does Father say?"

Concubine De relaxed and said, "The Emperor said he would not let Xi'er marry."

This way, she felt a little more at ease.

The third princess was still a little scared at this time. She lay in her sister's arms and spoke with grievance.

"Sister, Third Sister really didn't know that the Gula of that generation was so disgusting."

Shen Jiarou sighed: "I think we have to completely put an end to their thoughts on this matter."

The mother and daughter were stunned, and their pitiful faces were full of confusion.

"Where does Princess Yongkang come from?" Defei's heart began to hang in the air again.

"Marrying a princess will involve many people, money and belongings as a dowry. It's a loss for Dalin, but for Daigula, it's a profit. Maybe they can even recuperate and rest."

The mother and daughter were horrified by what they heard, and their originally calm hearts began to feel uneasy again.

Seeing them like this, Shen Jiarou sighed deeply.

"Father said he went to Fushou Palace. I'll go take a look. You should eat and drink first. Don't overwork yourself."

De Fei wiped away her tears and said, "Okay, Princess, go get busy."

Fu Shou Palace

"Princess Yongkang has arrived!"

The mother and son were stunned when they heard the announcement: "Emperor, did you ask Yi Yi to come?"

Emperor Yuan Shun shook his head: "Let me hear what Yi Yi has to say first."

Shen Jiarou came over and saluted gracefully: "I greet my grandmother and father."

"Girl, come and sit down next to the Imperial Grandmother. Do you have something to say to the Imperial Grandmother and your father?"

Shen Jiarou glanced at Emperor Yuan Shun and said, "Yes."

Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty took a sip of tea and said, "Tell me about it."

"From the perspective of sisterhood, I don't want my second and third sisters to marry into a foreign country. From a political perspective, I think the princess can't marry either.

Daigula is a tribal country that likes to burn, kill and rob. This is what I saw with my own eyes. If I hadn't learned some martial arts and had a relatively flexible mind, I'm afraid I would have turned into a pile of bones by now."

The Empress Dowager, Emperor Yuan Shun and others were horrified when they heard this, and they always felt guilty about the inexplicable suffering that their granddaughter/daughter had endured.

If she had not been Princess Dalin, she might not have been abducted and experienced life and death many times.

After hearing her words, Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty's expression became even darker and colder.

The next day, when Shen Jiarou appeared in the court in a bright yellow palace dress, everyone in the court was shocked.

Imperial Tutor Fu looked at Emperor Yuan Shun in confusion: "Your Majesty, what does this mean? Why did the princess come to the palace?"

Emperor Yuan Shun looked at the calm and composed Shen Jiarou and said gently, "Princess, please tell me."

Shen Jiarou bowed respectfully: "Yes, Father."

Shen Jiarou gathered her emotions and took deep breaths.

"This princess has dealt with Daigula many times, and I almost died several times. Maybe God has blessed me, otherwise I would have become a pile of bones by now."

Hearing her words, Prince Rong, Prince Yu, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and the Tenth Prince were all stunned. This was the first time they heard the Fourth Princess talk about that painful past, and their hearts were filled with heartache.

“This princess even killed a wolf in the desert, but it was mainly through wits. Sister Qingling and I stayed in the desert for several days, and it was there that I met Shen Feimo, one of this princess’s current guards and the only one of the Daigula bloodline.

When we saw him, he was dying. In that desert, his lips were so dry and cracked. We relied on the raw meat of the wolf to survive until we got out of the desert. We encountered bandits and refugees on the way. We survived one disaster after another with the help of the three of us and the wolf...

The Daigula even killed their own people at will, especially women and children. It was a horrible sight. I thought it was too dangerous there, so I made a bold decision and took them back to Meng on foot.

When we arrived at the border, we accidentally encountered them killing Huimeng people indiscriminately. By the way, my apprentice Zhaermu was one of the Huimeng people I met during that time, and he was also one of the Huimeng people I saved.

I still remember that time when Shen Feimo, Hu Zhan and I were all injured. Shen Feimo still has a long scar on his arm. We worked together with the people of Huimeng to defeat them, and soon we met the Huimeng army again on the same spot.

I also had an experience as a military doctor. I was a complete landlubber, so I had to learn most of the Huimeng Mandarin...

I rescued General Meng from being seriously injured. I heard from them that I was unconscious for half a month before I woke up. I almost died several times during that time...

As for why I am telling you all this today, I have my own selfish and political considerations. The second and third sisters are my sisters, and I don’t want them to marry far away in a foreign country.”

All the ministers nodded after hearing this. Everyone in and outside the palace and the capital knew that Princess Yongkang and the third princess had a deep sisterly love, so everyone could understand her words.

"The Daigula are brutal as a whole, especially to women and children. They are seeking to marry our princess, so there must be other reasons. It's not just seeking peace. Maybe seeking peace is just a veneer of paralysis. Maybe they are preparing to recuperate and attack us later."

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince nodded: "These are entirely possible."

"Since ancient times, when aristocratic families marry off their daughters, they will prepare a generous dowry and also give away some people as dowry. For example, when marrying a princess to a foreign country, especially when marrying a princess to a foreign country, dowry and people are indispensable.

There must be at least a thousand people, and the dowry must be worth at least several hundred thousand taels."

In response to her question, the Minister of Revenue took the initiative to answer.

"The princess is right."

"It takes time to recuperate, at least a few years, at most ten years or even longer. It is impossible for our dynasty to take the initiative to send people and money over there, let them recuperate, and then come back to attack us many years later."

The generals thought it made sense.

"Princess Yongkang is right. Daigula wanted peace in the first place. Why should we send him people and a huge amount of money as a dowry?"

"That's it."

"You must never marry a princess."

……

Hearing the generals' words, Shen Jiarou was delighted but did not show it on her face.

Shen Jiarou thought about it and decided to add fuel to the fire.

"Father, I want you to ask Shen Feimo to come in."

When Shen Feimo, dressed in black and with an expressionless face, walked into the Golden Palace, everyone felt that he was too cold, even colder than the guards around Princess Yongkang.

"Fei Mo, take off your clothes."

Shen Feimo was stunned, but still obediently took off his shirt.

The ministers looked at his back covered with scars and burns and could not bear to look at it any longer.

"Father, these are their own people, teenagers, and it was the army that killed them. If our people go to Daigula, they will not be treated well and will die miserably, or even be eaten." She said it very vaguely. They will definitely be eaten.

Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty was deeply shocked by the scars on the back and chest, and he glanced around the audience.

"My dear ministers, is there anyone who wants to marry us off? Who wants to send our people to be abused by others?"

The ministers stopped talking.
