1565 Selecting the Prince Consort
“Sister.” Ever since they won the battle, Xia Wei had returned to his original royal address for Xia Wanyuan.
In the three years of war tempering, Xia Wei had the strong might of an emperor and the heavy aura condensed from mountains of corpses and seas of blood.
However, in front of Xia Wanyuan, Xia Wei’s eyes were soft. He looked at her worriedly. “You’ve lost a lot of weight recently.”
Xia Wanyuan smiled and reached out to brush the snow off Xia Wei’s head. “You’ve lost more weight than me recently.”
When the world was first settled, as the emperor, Xia Wei carried the heavy burden of the world. He slept less than six hours a day.
The eldest sister was like a mother. While Xia Wanyuan was worried about Jun Shiling, she was naturally worried about Xia Wei.
“Royal Sister, I’ve asked the imperial physician. Jun Shiling won’t wake up. There are so many men in the world. I’ll choose a few more prince consorts for you. Don’t worry about Jun Shiling anymore.”
Although Xia Wei admitted from the bottom of his heart that Jun Shiling treated Xia Wanyuan very well,
However, he still favored Xia Wanyuan the most. He did not want to see her unhappy. He did not want to see Xia Wanyuan delay her life for someone who might never wake up.
Xia Wanyuan knew what Xia Wei was thinking. She turned around and looked at the proud plum blossom on the branch. “You don’t have to care about this.”
Xia Wei knew that once Xia Wanyuan decided on something, no one could change it. He did not say anything else and accompanied Xia Wanyuan to quietly look at the snow in front of him.
After returning to the imperial study, Xia Wei summoned the prime minister. “Gather all the talents in the world and choose a prince consort for my royal sister.”
During this period of time, other than comforting the old minister, Xia Wei had also promoted a batch of new blood. The prime minister in front of him, Xie Yun, was Xia Wei’s new young minister.
He was only 23 years old. His eyes were clear and his figure was tall. He stood there like an ink painting that was pleasing to the eye.
Xie Yun bowed respectfully. “Yes, I’ll do it immediately.”
As soon as Xie Yun finished speaking, he did not leave immediately. Instead, he stood there straight, as if he had something to say.
Xia Wei sensed his hesitation. “Beloved minister, do you have anything else to say?”
Xie Yun bowed. “May I ask if I can participate in the selection?”
Xia Wei raised an eyebrow slightly in surprise. “I didn’t expect my beloved minister to have feelings for my royal sister?”
A rare blush appeared on the usually calm Prime Minister’s face, but it was more of yearning. “The Eldest Princess is peerless. Which man in the world doesn’t yearn for such a woman?”
When Xia Wanyuan was a princess, the name of a peerless beauty had already resounded throughout the world. At that time, everyone knew that there was a noble and beautiful princess in the Great Xia Dynasty.
Later on, when the Xia Dynasty fell, Xia Wanyuan became the brightest color in the chaotic world.
She discussed the arrangement of troops with the generals and brought the soldiers to take back the land that the Xia Dynasty had delayed inch by inch. After settling the country, she assisted Xia Wei to calm the restless world.
Xia Wanyuan’s name finally resounded throughout the world.
Working with such a legendary woman and watching her float and sink in the turbulence, no one could resist such attraction.
Xie Yun was naturally no exception.
Xia Wei waved his hand. “Sure, go ahead. My beloved minister is my right-hand man. If you can become my royal sister’s husband, there’s nothing I’m reluctant about.”
“Yes.”
Soon, the news of Xia Wanyuan recruiting a prince consort spread throughout the world.
Instantly, the entire capital was filled with people signing up.
