What Zhou Ming said, "You are still young now, so consider getting married after the age of 30", in the ears of the old Wang Jue, was no different from refusing to marry into the Lucis family.

The old prince found it difficult to accept.

It’s even more impossible to swallow your anger!

He wants to cause trouble.

He wants to give Noctis some color!

So after leaving the palace, the angry old Wangjue immediately took a series of actions and caused a stir.

It caused an uproar in the imperial capital!

Of course, the old Wang Jue had not gone to extremes at first, and he still retained a trace of reason in his mind.

He just brought all the lords and nobles of the imperial capital to his palace and told them about the emperor's regretful marriage.

Hearing the old prince's story, the nobles were all surprised, and then filled with indignation, they all shouted angrily.

"What? How could His Majesty the Emperor do this? How could he not keep his words?"

"Contemplating getting married after the age of thirty? Are there any people who are still not married after the age of thirty? If my grandson dares to do this, I will break his legs!" said a nobleman.

"His Majesty the Emperor actually has no right to make the final decision regarding marriage. His parents are gone, but he still has his grandmother. The Queen Mother has the power to arrange a day for him and get married as soon as possible."

One of the old Wang Jue's sons shook his head and said: "Sister, her health has been getting worse and worse recently. She may not have many days left, and she seems to have figured out something. She became very angry when she heard Noctis. She I won’t marry Noctis.”

"What about Rubust? He is the head of the royal family and the descendant of His Majesty the Emperor. Can't he solemnize the marriage for Noctis?"

"It's unlikely. Rubster's relationship with our aristocratic faction isn't good either. He hopes that it will be too late to disrupt the marriage, so how can he possibly promote it?"

From these aspects, Noctis does have the power to make his own decisions when it comes to marriage.

"But... if you get married after the age of thirty, isn't this making fun of us nobles? Noctis has no sincerity in uniting our noble faction!"

"Yes, Noctis, like his father, also wants to ignore us nobles!"

"No! That brat is even more outrageous than his father. Not only does he want to regret the marriage, he also wants to humiliate us!"

The old prince interjected, banging his fist on the table: "I must give that boy a lesson and a warning until he admits his mistake and marries my Elsa immediately!"

"But... Noctis is not his father. This boy has a lot of power in his hands. His ability is a hundred times stronger than his father's. He is not that easy to deal with." A nobleman said with worry.

"boom!"

The old prince smashed the table and said: "No matter how hard his wings are, I can break them! I, the Lucis family, are by no means the objects of his contempt and humiliation. I want that boy to see what real life is." strength!"

"Old Wangjue, what do you mean..." A nobleman's eyes were full of horror. Did the old Wangjue want to... take violence?

"Old Prince, you have to be careful! If you go to that step, both sides will suffer losses!" A nobleman said extremely nervously.

"I will give that kid one last chance. If he continues to do his own thing, don't blame me for being rude!"

The old prince is not a stupid person, resorting to violence to fight the royal family. Since the two sides are equally powerful, once a war breaks out, both sides will suffer losses, or even lose more than the gains, causing the empire to fall into chaos. This is an unwise approach, and the old prince does not want to break up so early. Shameless.

He summoned so many nobles not to plan a war, but to invite them to write memorials together and communicate in advance. At tomorrow's morning court, the old prince will lead the nobles to swarm up and demand that Emperor Noctis finally I wish I could marry Elsa as my queen right away, and don’t even think about delaying it for a moment!

then.

The next day morning.

"Your Majesty, you are the ruler of the world and a role model for the people of the world. How can you break your promise?"

"Your Majesty, stop being playful and indulgent. It's just the right time to get married at the age of sixteen. Just fulfill your promise of 'a beautiful woman hidden in a golden house'!"

"Your Majesty, it will be of great benefit to the stability of the empire if you get married as soon as possible and give birth to children as soon as possible. The empire needs a queen!"

"Your Majesty, the nobility is also the backbone of the empire. If you don't value the nobility and humiliate the nobility! This empire may be in big trouble."

Under the leadership of the old prince, he faced hundreds of nobles' advice, stern warnings and voices demanding that he marry Elsa immediately.

Zhou Ming felt that his head was getting bigger.

"Stop, nobles, please be quiet for a moment."

He waved his hands repeatedly to signal the nobles to be quiet, but he shouted more than a dozen words and waited for more than five minutes until his face turned very ugly.

The hall finally became quiet.

"Is it interesting?"

"Is it interesting?"

Zhou Ming looked at the old Wang Jue and said: "Old Wang Jue, tell me, a small private matter has actually been brought to the court and made known to the whole world. Do you think it's interesting?"

I felt Zhou Ming's somewhat angry words.

The old prince didn't take it seriously at all, raised his head and said: "The emperor has no private affairs. The emperor's small private affairs are the major affairs of the empire and the world! As a loyal minister of the empire, I have to take the lead in supervising His Majesty."

"Yes, the emperor is selfless, and small things are big things!" A large number of nobles agreed.

"Don't have so many people talking at the same time! Talk one by one!"

Zhou Ming growled lowly, then pointed at a minister in the queue on the left and said: "Lord Gogoliz, both of my parents are dead, my grandmother is seriously ill, and there is no one to take charge of it. Can I make the decision on my own regarding this marriage? "

"Yes, Your Majesty." Gogoliz, known as one of the four great flatterers in the court, said without thinking.

"Okay! Since I can make the decision on marriage, and I don't want to get married too early, I hope to get married later. Is there any problem with this?" Zhou Ming asked again.

"No problem at all, Your Majesty," Gogoliz said.

"Okay! But look at these nobles, they actually interfere with my freedom, ask me to get married immediately, and force me to do things I don't want to do. Do you think they are a bit excessive?"

"Your Majesty, not only is this a bit excessive, it is very, very excessive!" Gogoliz said.

"I categorically reject these excessive demands. Is there no problem?"

"No problem majesty..."

Before Gogoliz finished speaking, a crutch hit him, making Gogoliz scream in agony.

Old Wang Jue actually started beating people.

He hit Gogoliz on the head several times and cursed: "You damn sycophant, I'll knock you to death!"

"Lord Lucis, what are you doing?!"

"Above the court, old Wangjue, how can you despise the power of heaven and take action so brazenly?"

"Stop, old Wangjue, stop it!"

These ministers were unhappy and started to shout and shout. Although Gogol was an unscrupulous flatterer, most of the courtiers were extremely disgraceful to him. They did not want to be with him after the court was over, but Gogol After all, Ritz is from the minister's faction.

How could the noble faction beat him at will?

So several strong ministers worked together to hold the old prince.

In the court, the two groups argued fiercely.

The focus of the debate is still the appropriate age at which the emperor should get married... This is the core of the contradiction.

The view of the aristocratic faction is: the sooner the emperor gets married, the better. It is best to get married immediately and not to exceed the age of 18. It is unacceptable to delay it after the age of 30.

In fact, most of the ministers in the ministerial faction agree with the views of the aristocratic faction. However, due to the deep conflicts between the two factions, this time, the ministers sided with the emperor, put forward a lot of weird ideas, and said a lot of irritating words. .

"Since His Majesty the Emperor has the right to decide when to get married, no matter whether His Majesty chooses to get married at twenty, thirty, or fifty, it is His Majesty's right. Others cannot interfere. We should respect His Majesty's power. .”

"What happened to getting married at the age of thirty? When I was young, I was ugly, my family was poor, and I didn't have a partner at the age of 34. But after I became an official in the court, I married three wives and three concubines at once, and I only had my first son at the age of 35. ...I think it’s okay to get married later.”

"It is actually not good to get married too early. I have a grandson who started to have sex with men and women when he was 12 years old. He enjoyed it every day, and his energy was exhausted and he didn't know how to control it. He also bought a lot of tiger and wolf medicine and had sex day and night. As a result, he became frail and sick at the age of 16. He died young and left no one and a half women. If he was half as sensible as Your Majesty, how could he die young?"

"I think your Majesty's consideration is wise. Now the empire's various undertakings are booming, and the people also hope for a healthy and long-lived king who will bring them long-term happiness. And with a knife on the head of the word "sex", how many talented people there are Your Majesty, before your great achievements were accomplished, they were ruined by the word 'sexuality'. Now His Majesty the Emperor has a clear understanding of the dangers of 'sexuality', which is not a bad thing for the stability of the country."

"Yes, although His Majesty is young, he has always been very decisive and far-sighted. However, you nobles are all short-sighted and only care about small profits in front of you, even at the expense of destroying a good situation. You should be ashamed of your nonsense!"

Hear these words.

Old Wang Jue's body was trembling, his face turned red, and he was almost vomiting blood!
