Save the Bachelor of Heaven

Xiang Nan then mentioned Pei Zhao and Luo Xi's marriage to Li Hao.

"Father, in a few days, it will be Luo Xi's seventeenth birthday." He said with a smile.

"Oh?! Is Luo Xi already that old? Time flies so fast." When Li Hao heard this, he couldn't help but sigh.

Because there was no risk of Yongning and Luo Xi seizing the throne, Li Hao still loved them very much.

"Yes." Xiang Nan nodded, "It seems that my sister has reached the age of marriage."

"Well, I want to help her find a good husband who has both political integrity and talent, good character, and a well-matched family." Li Hao said immediately.

"Father, in fact, Luo Xi has been fond of Pei Zhao since she was a child." Xiang Nan said with a smile when he saw this.

"Oh?!" Li Hao was stunned and nodded, "Well, the two of them are a good match."

Pei Zhao's father, Pei Kuang, is a general of Xiaoqi, and his mother is the eldest princess of Pingnan. Therefore, he is not only a member of a family of generals, but also a descendant of the clan.

He has outstanding appearance, good character, strong martial arts, courage and knowledge. Last year he conquered Danchi and made great achievements. Among the younger generation of clan disciples, he can be regarded as an outstanding figure.

Moreover, he is also Xiang Nan's companion. They have grown up together since childhood and their relationship is irreversible. When Xiang Nan ascends the throne in the future, Pei Zhao will definitely be his right-hand man.

Therefore, when Luo Xi marries him, not only will she be harmonious and respect each other as a guest, but she will also enjoy prosperity and wealth for the rest of her life without having to worry about political liquidation in the future.

"Well, then I will draw up an imperial edict to grant marriage to the two of them!" Li Hao said with a smile.

"On behalf of Luo Xi and Pei Zhao, I would like to express my gratitude to my father for your kindness and make it beautiful." Xiang Nan bowed and saluted.

…

"Two~" Qu Xiaofeng said.

"Bump! Hey, nine cakes!" Zhao Sesu said.

"No, Qibian!" Luo Xi said.

"Hey, this is what I've been waiting for, everyone!" Yongning was overjoyed and said happily.

"No way, it's you and me again!" Luo Xi said in surprise, "I sat down at the table today and we haven't even made peace yet."

"Yeah, why are you so unlucky today? You've played eight rounds and you haven't drawn a draw even once." Qu Xiaofeng also felt strange.

"No, today is Princess Luoxi's birthday. She should have the best luck." Zhao Sese said with relief.

"You are playing cards, who won today?" At this moment, Xiang Nan walked in with a smile.

"Fifth brother~" Yongning and Luo Xi immediately stood up and said.

"Your Highness~" Zhao Sese also saluted.

Only Qu Xiaofeng did not move. He glanced at Xiang Nan and said, "Today is Luo Xi's birthday, and we all gave her gifts. As the fifth brother, you haven't seen anyone since early in the morning. Where are the gifts, why don't you take them out quickly? "

"Those gifts you gave me are nothing more than jewelry, clothes, jewelry, etc. They are so vulgar." Xiang Nan curled his lips, "Even if there are ten thousand gifts, they won't be as good as mine."

"You're bragging!" Qu Xiaofeng made it clear that he didn't believe it.

"Then tell me first, what gifts did you give?" Xiang Nan asked.

"What I gave Luo Xi was a malachite, a specialty of Xizhou, with Luo Xi's name engraved on it." Qu Xiaofeng explained.

"What I gave to Princess Luoxi is "The Picture of Women's Benevolence and Wisdom" painted by Gu Kaizhi of the Eastern Jin Dynasty." Zhao Sese replied.

"What I gave to Luo Xi is the Baixiu Luo skirt that I specially made at Vipshop." Yongning also said proudly.

"Sure enough, none of them can compare to me." Xiang Nan smiled.

"Then what gift do you want to give?" Qu Xiaofeng asked curiously.

Xiang Nan chuckled, took out an imperial edict from his sleeve, and handed it to Luo Xi's hand.

Luo Xi opened it suspiciously and was stunned.

Yongning, Zhao Sese, and Qu Xiaofeng hurriedly came over to take a look, and were all stunned.

It turns out that this imperial edict was exactly the decree given by Li Chu for the marriage of Pei Zhao and Luo Xi.

Xiang Nan went to Pei Mansion early in the morning to announce the decree, and then rushed back to the East Palace to tell Luo Xi the good news.

…

"How about it, Luo Xi, does this gift from Fifth Brother suit your wishes?" Xiang Nan said with a smile.

Luo Xi could hardly believe this was true.

She has liked Pei Zhao since she was a child, but she has never dared to say it. And Pei Zhao is also a boring gourd, a big wood who doesn't understand the charm, and he has never treated her with pretentious words.

Therefore, she could only bury this feeling in her heart, thinking that she might miss it in this life. In the future, it will either be for princes, ministers or clan members, or it will be like Mingyuan and Qu Xiaofeng, who will marry in foreign countries.

That's why she was so excited when she saw the marriage edict.

She nodded with tears in her eyes, thinking that this birthday gift was really great!

"It doesn't count, it doesn't count, this is a marriage ordered by the Holy One, and it's not you!" Qu Xiaofeng said, "You can't borrow flowers to offer to the Buddha. You'd better come up with your gift quickly."

"Really, if I wasn't the matchmaker, how could my father know about Luo Xi and A Zhao?" Xiang Nan glared at her.

"That is also the mercy of the Holy One and the beauty of adulthood." Qu Xiaofeng said with a smile, "Don't be stingy, hurry up and bring out the gift~"

"Okay, okay, I won't argue with you." Xiang Nan smiled and then gave Shi En some instructions.

Shi En went immediately.

After a while, when he came back, there was a gift box in his hand.

Xiang Nan then gave it to Luo Xi.

Luo Xi took it and took a look, and saw an exquisite small box inside. After opening it, there was a dancing little man inside, and sweet music came out, which shocked everyone.

"Wow, what is this, how can you still make a sound?" Qu Xiaofeng said in surprise.

Musical instruments still need people to play, but such a small box, which cannot have anyone inside, can still make pleasant sounds. It is really amazing.

Yongning and Zhao Sese were also puzzled, seeing such a treasure for the first time.

"This is called a music box. I made it secretly and planned to give it to you." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "Now I can only give it to Luo Xi as a birthday present."

"Ah?!" Qu Xiaofeng couldn't help but feel extremely depressed when he heard this. But Luo Xi was her best friend, so she was only slightly depressed and soon became happy again.

Then several people gathered around the music box and discussed it with great interest. They all wanted to know how it could make sound. It was really amazing.

…

Suddenly, it was Zhao Sese's birthday.

Qu Xiaofeng also gave her a malachite gift.

Xiang Nan gave her an ivory Guanyin carved by himself.

"Sese, this Guanyin was carved by me myself. You must worship it properly." Xiang Nan instructed.

Zhao Sese was not surprised when Xiang Nan gave her a Guanyin statue. After all, to her, she had seen all kinds of Guanyin statues, including gold, silver, jade, copper, wood, and porcelain. It was not strange at all.

Compared with the magical music box that Xiang Nan wanted to give to Qu Xiaofeng, these were all rubbish.

But when she heard that this Guanyin statue was carved by Xiang Nan himself, she was so happy that the meaning suddenly changed.

The music box is just a plaything, but Guanyin is a god, and it has always been associated with "giving children away". It can be seen that in the eyes of the prince, Qu Xiaofeng is just a plaything, and he had to marry him in order to control the Western Region.

And he is the one he wants to spread his branches and reproduce.
