The ninth son of the emperor was demoted at the beginning. I have a famous Chinese general.

Chapter 261 Are you really willing to marry me?

“Have you already discussed it?”

Sikong Ruo still couldn't believe it.

"Yes, but His Highness said that he and you are friends, so this matter requires your consent."

Sikong Yan nodded.

"this......"

Sikong Ruo looked confused and a little flustered.

Of course she liked Ning Quan, but she always kept this love in her heart.

"Is this true?"

After a moment, Sikong Ruo suddenly looked up at Ning Quan and asked.

“Ahem… well… it’s true.”

Ning Quan coughed twice and touched his nose awkwardly.

The King of Zhenbei wants to protect himself, which has little to do with Ning Quan. Ning Quan just needs to do his best to protect the Sikong lineage.

But Sikong Ruo is different. Ning Quan still likes her very much.

If Sikong Ruo is willing, of course he is willing.

Moreover, the King of Zhenbei only has this one daughter, so marrying her would be a good thing for him.

"you......"

Upon hearing the confirmation, Sikong Ruo's eyes suddenly lit up.

But then she lowered her head, her face flushed, and she looked shy.

"Hahaha......."

"Your Highness, look, I told you, she only has Your Highness in her heart."

Seeing his daughter's expression, Sikong Yan burst into laughter.

"Dad, you..."

Sikong Ruo's pretty face flushed red, and she wished she could find a hole in the ground to crawl into.

"Okay, I won't say anything."

"I'm going to go out for a walk. You can have a good chat with His Highness."

Seeing that his daughter was shy, Sikong Yan stood up with a smile and walked out of the room.

"Are you really willing to marry me?"

"Didn't my father force you to do that?"

Sikong Ruo bit her lip and looked at Ning Quan and asked.

"Of course not. Who can force me to marry a woman I don't like?"

"I want to do it myself." Ning Quan said quickly.

"oh......"

Sikong Ruo responded, but his face became even redder, like a ripe apple, making people want to take a bite.

Sikong Ruo's heart beat faster and she felt like she was going crazy.

Is all this true?

Is she really going to marry Ning Quan?

"Your father also said that we should get married as soon as possible."

Ning Quan's voice came suddenly.

"what!"

"Get married as soon as possible? Why?"

Sikong Ruo exclaimed and looked at Ning Quan in shock.

"There are other things involved here, and your father is probably afraid that things will get complicated if the night goes on."

Ning Quan explained.

"What do you mean?"

"Is this a deal?"

Sikong Ruo's expression changed.

"Of course not, what are you thinking."

Ning Quan said decisively.

"Oh."

"But this is too hasty."

Sikong Ruo was relieved then, and then he muttered.

"It's a bit hasty, but as long as you and I love each other, none of this matters." Ning Quan said with a smile.

"Okay then, but after I marry you, you can't bully me."

Sikong Ruo said coquettishly.

"No, no, if you marry me, I will love you in every way." Ning Quan quickly assured.

"Hmph, smooth talk."

Sikong Ruo whispered.

"Haha, this is not glib talk, I am speaking the truth."

"Okay, now that this matter is settled, will you come back to Xizhou with me tomorrow morning?"

"We'll get married as soon as we get back to Xizhou."

Ning Quan said with a smile.

“Going to Xizhou?”

"So will my dad come to our wedding?"

Sikong Ruo asked hurriedly.

"Of course your father will go."

"It's just that this matter cannot be made public now."

Ning Quan explained with a smile.

“Oh, I almost understand.”

"Did something happen up there?" Sikong Ruo guessed.

“You’re smart, you are.”

"Your father is doing this to prepare for a rainy day. He will feel relieved if you marry me."

Ning Quan explained.

"I see."

Sikong Ruo suddenly understood.

"As long as you know."

"Let's go, let's go see your dad."

"Tonight, as a son-in-law, I have to have a few drinks with my father-in-law."

Ning Quan held Sikong Ruo's little hand and said.

"okay."

Sikong Ruo nodded shyly.

.........

That night, Ning Quan set up a banquet on the big boat and entertained Sikong Yan.

During the meal, Ning Quan and Sikong Yan had a pleasant conversation.

The two also talked about many things.

Ning Quancai learned that Sikong Yan had made other preparations just in case.

He also moved the other two branches of his family out of the capital, one to Annan and the other to Japan.

This may be the way of survival for the aristocratic family, a cunning rabbit has three burrows.

"Your Highness, if the Crown Prince ascends the throne, what will you do?"

After eating and drinking, Sikong Yan looked at Ning Quan and asked.

"I don't need the Daqian territory."

"But Crown Prince Ning Gao, Sixth Prince Ning Xuan, and Ninth Prince Ning Hao must die."

Ning Quan was silent for a moment and said coldly.

"Your Highness, can't you just let them go?"

Hearing this, Sikong Yan frowned and asked.

"cannot."

Ning Quan shook his head and spoke word by word.

How could he forget the humiliation he suffered back then? He must take revenge!

"Hi......"

"It seems that we old guys need to make preparations early."

Sikong Yan sighed and said helplessly.

"Dad, if it really doesn't work out, you can just go to Xizhou with us."

Sikong Ruo suggested.

"You go ahead. I won't go. His Majesty has treated me well. At least while His Majesty is still alive, I cannot betray him."

"Besides, I've already made all the arrangements, so you don't have to worry."

Sikong Yan shook his head.

"Oh well."

Sikong Ruo nodded and sighed inwardly.

She knew that she couldn't persuade her father.

"Father-in-law, you just said that a group of our clan went to Japan?"

At this time, Ning Quan suddenly remembered something and asked.

"good."

"The group that went there was my second brother's. They've been gone for a month and should have settled down by now."

Sikong Yan nodded.

"Are they okay?"

Ning Quan continued to ask.

"I don't know. Japan is too far away from us, and there's an ocean between us. We're not sure what the situation is right now, and we haven't received a reply yet."

"But it shouldn't be a big problem. I have arranged three hundred soldiers to protect them."

Sikong Yan shook his head.

"oh."

Hearing this, Ning Quan nodded.

Japan is now in the Muromachi period, and the emperor is Emperor Go-shinmachi.

But at this time the emperor was just a figurehead. The daimyos in various places had their own fiefdoms and territories and did not obey the emperor's management at all.

In other words, Japan is currently in the most chaotic period.

It was not a wise move for Sikong Yan's people to move to Japan at this time.

But since Sikong Yan said it was okay, Ning Quan didn't say much.

"Father-in-law, please stay on the boat tonight."

Ning Quan suddenly invited.

"Okay, then I'll stay overnight and leave tomorrow morning."

Sikong Yan nodded and did not refuse.

.........

Silent all night.

The next morning, Ning Quan saw Sikong Yan off.

"Ruo'er, follow His Majesty to Xizhou and be obedient. Don't act like a spoiled brat."

"I'll go back to the capital and make arrangements before heading to Xizhou to attend your wedding."
