Chapter 908: The importance of marriage alliance
Leng Rongyue said something that was enough to shock everyone present, but her beautiful little face remained calm and composed.
However, the determination in her beautiful eyes is unquestionable and unshakable!
Emperor Hongde only then began to think about how serious the problem would be if the so-called marriage alliance or alliance really came up at his own Qianqiu Banquet not long after!
At this time, Xiao Jingyu also confirmed more clearly that his Xiaoyue'er, his little princess, was an extremely principled and extraordinary woman with firm and unshakable beliefs!
In this era, women's destiny has never been decided by themselves.
There are even fewer men who stay with one wife their entire life.
But Leng Rongyue just doesn't believe this...
Or you can have the cleanest, purest and most exclusive relationship.
Or don’t have it at all!
In Yue'er's opinion, once there is even a little bit of filth in a relationship, the relationship will instantly turn into dirty garbage!
Since it is dirty garbage, she will naturally throw it away without mercy and hesitation!
If I had any impure thoughts about the relationship between them, I believed Yue'er would abandon me immediately and would never look at me again!
Xiao Jingyu was well aware of this and appreciated it.
Before meeting Leng Rongyue, Xiao Jingyu watched how his father, the emperor, and his mother stayed with each other and lived their lives in dependence on each other.
To be honest, the late emperor, that is, his grandfather, also had many concubines.
In addition to the late crown prince, who is his biological brother and has the same father and mother as the empress, his father also has many illegitimate brothers and sisters born to concubines in the harem.
Back then, my father and my uncle, the former crown prince, suffered from the slander, conspiracy and assassination by those half-brothers, both openly and covertly!
Even when the former crown prince was injured while protecting his father, it was the work of one of their half-brothers.
If it weren't for the full protection of Empress Luan Xiying's father, Grand Tutor Luan, Duke of Anguo Fu Peng, Prime Minister Qin Huaiyuan and other veteran ministers, it's not certain whether his father could survive to ascend the throne!
Emperor Hongde had seen enough of the darkness and filth in the harem;
I’ve seen enough of the cruel and ugly sight of half-brothers fighting and tearing each other apart for the throne, which symbolizes supreme power!
He had also seen enough of his own mother trapped in the harem. She was either constantly on guard against the secret plots of the concubines to murder her, or she was crying and depressed all day long.
It was for this reason that Emperor Hongde secretly vowed that when he married and had children in the future, he would never let his wife and children live the same life as his mother and himself.
He would never let his legitimate son be trapped among a group of illegitimate sons and suffer the same dangers and harms he had suffered!
After he came of age, Emperor Hongde did not want to have a concubine or a maid, and he was waiting for Luan Xiying to come of age.
After marrying Luan Xiying, his childhood sweetheart and his mutual love, he kept his promise and stayed with Luan Xiying in love.
After ascending the throne, Emperor Hongde did not forget his original promise. He withstood the pressure from court officials and insisted on not holding a beauty contest or establishing a harem. He stayed with Empress Luan Xiying alone and raised his two legitimate sons with great care.
Xiao Jingyu envied the relationship between his father and mother from the bottom of his heart, and also secretly yearned for it...
I look forward to the day when I can meet someone who is spiritually connected, shares the same feelings, loves each other sincerely, and stays with me for the rest of my life!
Now that he has met Yue'er, he has met his true love. Xiao Jingyu cherishes her immensely. He will do everything he can to protect this true love and will never allow anyone or anything to destroy it!
Xiao Jingyu looked towards Leng Rongyue...
Before this, Xiao Jingyu had expressed his promise more than once - to be together for life!
At this moment, Leng Rongyue understood the determination and perseverance in Xiao Jingyu's eyes, and his resolve to face everything together with Leng Rongyue. She couldn't help but feel a little more comforted and sweet in her heart...
I hope I didn’t trust the wrong person!
Leng Rongyue looked at the people present...
Emperor Hongde was accompanied by the Emperor and Empress;
The Duke of Anguo and his two sons were also monogamous;
Xiao Jingyu and the brothers Fu Mingjun and Fu Mingxiu also had no concubines. They all kept themselves clean and were only waiting to marry their own wives.
Therefore, they did not find Leng Rongyue's insistence on and remarks about pure feelings so shocking, horrifying, or difficult to accept!
However, it cannot be denied that the reason why Emperor Hongde was able to maintain monogamy for his entire life was because he was the monarch, and the challenges he faced only came from his subjects.
As a monarch, he has the power to reject the wishes of his subjects and stick to his original intention!
The reason why the Duke of Anguo and his two sons were able to be monogamous for their entire lives was that it was even easier. They just had to follow their own hearts, their feelings, and a sincere promise.
Their persistence neither involves the interests of the country nor causes any harm to the country!
However, the hypothesis proposed by Leng Rongyue today is no longer an internal matter of Jingyue Kingdom, nor is it a matter between two families or two people, but a major issue in the diplomatic relations between Jingyue Kingdom and other countries.
——Marriage alliances and marriage alliances are matters of great importance!
