mtl008 Chapter 170 Female General
Chapter 170 Female General
How easy is it for the royal family to make someone disappear?
Prince Jin may be angry and sad, but he can vent his anger on Consort Rui and even neglect his mother, Consort Rui, but he would never dare to have any opinion against the Emperor.
The weight of the words "make her disappear forever" is vastly different when spoken by the Emperor versus when spoken by Consort Rui.
Chu Yueli should understand this principle very well.
Today, the Emperor has made his attitude completely clear: he dotes on Chu Yueli because he admires this daughter-in-law.
Since you spoil her, you should do something for her.
Tuoba Feiyuan, this wild girl who suddenly appeared out of nowhere, could be completely crushed with a pinch from him.
"emperor……"
"Ali, I can help you this time, but if something like this happens again in the future, I still hope that you can be more sensible."
Her husband, at the very least, will be a prince.
A prince, for the sake of his offspring, would never have only one woman. In the future, there will be concubines and maids in the royal palace.
The emperor is also a man, and men naturally understand men.
Even the deepest love will eventually lose its novelty over time, and one might fall for other girls.
If Chu Yueli cannot see this point, then she is truly unsuitable to be his royal daughter-in-law.
Chu Yueli suddenly knelt down.
"Miss Li, what do you mean by this?" An Delu asked, somewhat surprised.
The emperor frowned and stared at her.
Chu Yueli looked up and met the Emperor's gaze.
Her eyes were calm, her expression serene, and she showed no significant emotional fluctuations.
“A-Li thanks Your Majesty for the favor, but A-Li does not wish to enter the Prince Jin’s residence. A-Li made this very clear to Your Majesty a long time ago. Moreover, the imperial decree to annul the engagement has already been issued, how can there be any reason to go back on one’s word?”
The Emperor's brows furrowed even more: "But you are so devoted to Jin'er, could it be..."
"Why does Your Majesty think that A-Li still has feelings for Prince Jin?" Chu Yueli blinked slightly, seemingly looking completely innocent.
“Your Majesty, Ali and my elder brother went to Xishan, partly to rescue the Prince. The Prince is Your Majesty’s son and the God of War of Dongling. As subjects of Dongling, everyone has the responsibility to protect Prince Jin.”
"Secondly, this is also Ali's other, more important purpose."
Her gaze was open and honest, and although her words carried a hint of self-interest, her attitude was so frank that it was impossible to be angry with her.
Chu Yueli said, "Ali also wants the Emperor to see clearly the strength of our Duke's Mansion. Ali's elder brother is a fierce general, and Ali has been well-versed in military books since childhood. She not only understands tactics, but also has some knowledge of the Eight Trigrams Formation."
"Our Duke's Mansion is full of talented people. Even if Ali doesn't marry into the royal family, the Duke's Mansion can still protect the country and share the Emperor's burdens."
“Miss Li, this…” An Delu wanted to say that matters such as protecting the country should be left to men.
But then he suddenly remembered that this time, it was indeed Chu Yueli who went to the Stone Forest alone and led Prince Jin's team to escape.
Although she was a woman, she accomplished something that none of the men in the entire army could do.
An Delu didn't dare say anything, he just looked at the emperor.
The emperor's face darkened, his lips pressed tightly together, and he remained silent.
Chu Yueli continued, "Ali went to the Stone Forest alone this time, firstly to save the soldiers, and secondly, it was also an adventure, as she wanted to show the Emperor Ali's abilities."
She knelt and moved forward several steps, her eyes bright and her words resounding: "A-Li's mother, Ming Ruonan, is a female general. A-Li also wants to be like her mother and achieve great things! I beg Your Majesty to grant my wish."
The Emperor was indeed surprised this time: "You want to be a female general?"
