After he finished speaking, he finally reacted. The contents of the Imperial edict were different, and the aning conveyed was also different.
The Imperial edict said that Ming Zhiyan was the Prince Consort of Princess Ding’an, which ant that his nephew had entered the Jian Family.
If the Imperial edict stated that Princess Dingan was to be Ming Zhiyan’s Princess Consort. This was the way for Princess Ding’an to enter the Ming Family.
Realizing this, the Emperor imdiately retorted, “No, how can you marry into the family with your status? You’re the only one left in the Ming Family. If you marry into the Jian Family, the bloodline will be cut off. How are you going to explain this to your father? How are we going to explain this to the ancestors of the Ming Family?”
Ming Zhiyan said coldly, “1 do not need to explain to anyone, I can make my own decisions. So what if I marry into the Jian Family? I will have children with Princess Ding’an, how can this be called cutting off the bloodline?”
Seeing his nephew return to his old self, the Emperor had a headache. “How can this be the sa? After marrying into the Jian Family, the child will have the surna Jian and the one to be worshipped will be the Jian Family’s ancestor. Won’t there be no one to worship the Ming Family’s ancestors?
Ming Zhiyan still said coldly, “My ancestors aren’t here anymore, so what’s the point of all this? How would they know if we have paid our respects or not? When I’m alive, I’ll naturally go and pay my respects. In the future, when I have a child, I’ll also bring my child to pay my respects. After I die, who cares if they pay their respects or not?”
The Emperor was silent for a long ti. His nephew’s personality was really difficult to deal with. If he did not agree, he would definitely not give up.
However, Ming Zhiyan’s father was his good friend and his capable official. The thought of his good friend’s bloodline being cut off made him feel a little uncomfortable.
However, he thought of his good friend’s personality. He had always been unbridled. At that ti, he had great expectations and joy for the birth of his nephew, but unfortunately, he still did not get to see him.
If he was still alive, he would have been a good father and his nephew would not have beco like this.
Zhiyan’s father was easy-going by nature and did not care about these formalities at all. If he were still alive, he might have really let his son marry into the Jian Family.
Besides, how could a dead person be more important than a living person?
He looked at his nephew’s stubborn expression and suddenly felt a wave of powerlessness. He waved his hand and said, “But you have to promise that one of the remaining children must have the surna Ming and inherit the Ming Family’s incense.”
Looking at Ming Zhiyan’s reluctant expression, the Emperor glared at him and said, “I have the final say in this matter! If you don’t agree, then forget it!”
Ming Zhiyan was silent for a mont, then he raised his head and said, “Then forget it. I don’t want your Imperial edict. I can still get married without it anyway.”
Seeing that he was really going to leave. the Emperor had a headache and
imdiately said, “Stop right there! Did I let you go?
Ming Zhiyan turned around and looked at him. “You’re not going to issue an Imperial edict. There’s no use for to stay here. I won’t be an eyesore.” The Emperor knew that he was forcing him to make a decision.
He sighed helplessly and waved his hand, “Forget it, forget it. You can do whatever you want. When you grow up and beco disobedient, I can’t control you. I will write an Imperial edict for you.”
Although his nephew’s path was blocked, he could still try to find Qingqing. Qinging was reasonable and would not refuse.
After receiving the Imperial edict, he pursed his lips and said with sincere gratitude, “Many thanks, Your Majesty!’
Seeing his happy face, the Emperor was also very happy.
Forget it, forget it, the children and grandchildren will have their own fortunes, he can’t care anymore..
