The king thus became close friends with Judt.One day, the king had a secret talk with the prime minister and expressed his worries: "Aiqing, Zhu Te is too capable, I am afraid that he will usurp my power one day." "Your Majesty, please don't worry, it's probably impossible to usurp the throne. Because Judt's current situation is far above the king's. If he seized the country and became the king, his status would be lowered instead.If His Majesty is worried, it is better to simply marry the princess to him.He became a son-in-law and became His Majesty's son-in-law, and your son-in-law will have a linked interest. "

"Well, please be a matchmaker and make good things happen." "Your Majesty, you invited him to the banquet. We chatted with him in the living room, and told the princess to pack up and dress gorgeously, and walked past the door of the living room. When he saw the beauty of the princess, he would definitely fall in love at first sight. At this time, I played by ear and pretended Tell him quietly without telling His Majesty that it is the princess, and he will propose to His Majesty. Once His Majesty betroths the Princess to him, you and your son-in-law will become one, and Your Majesty can rest easy. If he dies, Your Majesty can inherit his huge property."

"Yes! You are right." The king then prepared a banquet and invited Judd to the banquet. Judt was invited to the palace, and sat in the living room, eating, drinking and laughing with the guests.In the evening, the king sent someone to the harem to tell the queen to dress up for the princess. After she was dressed beautifully, she took her to the living room for a walk.The queen dressed up the princess beautifully as ordered, and led her slowly past the living room door.When Judt saw the beautiful figure of the princess, he was immediately fascinated. He couldn't restrain his envy and sighed.

The prime minister asked cleverly, "Are you alright? Why are you so pale? Are you feeling unwell?" "Your Excellency! Who is this lady?" "Oh! That's Her Royal Highness. If you like her, I will go to persuade the king to marry her to you." "Thank you so much! Please tell the king, let us form a family. I swear on my life, what you want, I will give you. What kind of dowry the king wants, just ask." "Your wish will come true." After the prime minister negotiated with Judt, he quietly said to the king: "Your Majesty! Judt wishes to marry Princess Asiya, and asked me to be a matchmaker. I hope that your Majesty will not disappoint the minister and accept the kindness of the minister. Whatever dowry His Majesty needs, he can offer it at any time."

"There is no need to accept the dowry. I feel very honored that he is willing to accept the youngest daughter as his wife." As soon as the morning of the next day was over, the king called civil and military officials, gentlemen, and judges together to hold an engagement ceremony for Judt and Princess Asiye and write a marriage letter.Judt sent someone to fetch the saddle bag containing gold, silver and jewels as a dowry gift.Then the wedding took place.The drums and music blared together at the wedding, which was very lively. Judt married Princess Asiyah and became a relative of the king. After a leisurely and comfortable life, the king died.

Because of Judt's popularity, the whole country unanimously demanded that he inherit the throne.He humbly backed down and refused to accept, but everyone supported him, and he finally ascended to the throne. Judt became king, and sent craftsmen to build a Roman-style mosque in the cemetery of the former king, and allocated a sum of money to do charity and relieve the poor and destitute.Later, he spent a lot of money to rebuild the palace, set up temples widely, and named the street where the palace is located after himself.After that, he asked his two elder brothers to be the left and right prime ministers so that everyone could conspire with the state affairs.
