"The mother is serious. ”

Feng Qiao smiled.

The queen next to her said: "The queen mother has always been talking to the palace, saying that the princess of Yongding has the appearance of a woman, the color of the country, but the palace has never had the opportunity to see, today I saw the princess, only to know that the words of the mother are still reserved." ”

"No wonder Your Majesty has always attached great importance to the princess, even when the title was given, it was also the princess's small character canonization Qing'an, such an honor, it is really the first in the court. ”

Feng Qiao's eyes moved slightly when he heard the queen's words, and he vaguely noticed that there was some unknown hostility in the queen's words, and the smile on his face faded a little: "The queen said that she laughed." ”

Not only was he aware of the queen's abnormal attitude, but Feng Qiao also lost a little bit of greetings.

She looked up at the Empress Dowager Yun and said, "I don't know that the Empress Dowager specially summoned me to the palace today, but what is the order?"

Empress Dowager Yun did have something to let Feng Qiao enter the palace, and after seeing her ask straight to the point, she also said directly: "The mourning family does have something they want you to help with." ”

"The Queen Mother, please speak. ”

"Do you know why the envoys of the Western Xinjiang stayed in the capital and didn't leave?"

Feng Qiao shook his head: "Since I became pregnant, I have been living in the mansion for a long time and rarely go out, the prince is afraid that I will think too much, and rarely tell me about the outside things, so I don't know much about what the Queen Mother asked." ”

Empress Dowager Yun looked at Feng Qiao's expression, and seeing that she didn't want to lie, she could only speak: "This time, the envoys from the Western Xinjiang came to Beijing, accompanied by his sister, the princess of the Western Xinjiang, Ta Duoer. ”

"Although Xijiang has surrendered to Dayan, they still want to be closer to our Dayan, so they want to send Taduoer to Dayan to do marriage, and they have been staying here for this purpose. ”

Feng Qiao didn't expect Empress Dowager Yun to let her enter the palace, it was actually for this matter, she frowned lightly and said: "Empress Dowager, the matter of marriage and kinship should be decided by His Majesty, what can you do when you summon me into the palace?"

"Your Majesty has chosen a husband for Tadol. ”

Feng Qiao listened to the Queen Mother's words, and faintly felt that something was wrong, so he heard the Queen Mother say: "After all, Ta Duoer is the princess of Western Xinjiang, Your Majesty originally wanted to integrate her into the palace and give her the position of concubine, which can be regarded as a complete friendship with Western Xinjiang, but Usmu said that Ta Duoer already has a heart. ”

Feng Qiao squinted slightly: "Who is the person she fancies?"

"General Zhao Yong, Lu Feng. ”

Feng Qiao's face was stunned.

Empress Dowager Yun didn't notice Feng Qiao's expression, but continued: "General Lu is already twenty-seven, but he has never married a wife, the position of the Lu family's housewife is vacant, and the people of Western Xinjiang advocate force, and there is only one person of the right age in this court. ”

"Ta Duoer had met General Lu in private, and he was very fond of him, let alone not marrying, so His Majesty intended to arrange this marriage and wanted to marry the two of them. ”

Feng Qiao was silent, and only raised his head after a while: "If Your Majesty wants to give marriage, you should have already gone to the General's Mansion if you want to come to the Holy Decree, but the Queen Mother has summoned me to the palace, but what has happened?"

Empress Dowager Yun nodded: "The princess is really smart, General Lu, she has resisted the order." ”

Feng Qiao's heart jumped.

Empress Dowager Yun said in a deep voice: "Although Your Majesty did not explicitly grant marriage, but also summoned Lu Feng into the palace to inquire about this matter, at that time, General Lu said that he did not like Ta Duoer, and had no intention of getting married, so he refused the matter, but who knew that Ta Duoer didn't know where to learn about this matter, and went directly to Lu Mansion, but was thrown out by Lu Feng's order, and it is said that he also hurt his face. ”

"The people in the western frontier made a lot of trouble about this, saying that my Dayan had no intention of befriending them, and Usmu even said that he would let His Majesty give Ta Duoer an explanation. ”

"At present, the people of Western Xinjiang are biting this matter, and there is even a hidden image of breaking the contract, and if they want to let them no longer pursue this matter, there is only one way to give marriage, let General Lu marry Ta Duoer, and save the face of the people of Western Xinjiang. ”

Empress Dowager Yun said this, her face was worried.

"Your Majesty has just ascended the throne, and the DPRK and China cannot withstand any turmoil. ”

"The mourning family knows that Princess Yongding and General Lu have some friendship, so I want to ask you to persuade one or two. If General Lu really doesn't like Ta Duoer, he can marry back and settle it at will, as long as he can send people from the western Xinjiang, he can calm down this conflict. ”

Feng Qiao took a deep breath: "Queen Mother, this matter is explained by His Majesty?"

Empress Dowager Yun shook her head: "No, it's the mourning family who wants to find you." ”

When she looked at Feng Qiao, her expression was that after becoming the queen mother, the nobility she had cultivated faded a little, as if she had become the Yun Concubine who was in the palace again.

"Feng Qiao, you also know Xiao Jiu's temperament, he values affection and gratitude, but now that he is the emperor, he is no longer able to act at will at will. ”

If he protects General Lu, the people of Western Xinjiang will definitely be dissatisfied, and the peace that has been hard won on the border of Western Xinjiang will be ruined. ”

She still didn't say a word, that is, if Xiao Jinyu favored people in the western Xinjiang for the sake of peace and tranquility, she could only force Lu Feng to accept the marriage.

Lu Feng and his people are already untamable, but now they have heavy troops, and the hundreds of thousands of troops in the realm of Beining are all in the hands of the Lu family.

In case Lu Feng has a grudge against Xiao Jinyu and the royal family because of this matter, how can Xiao Jinyu's throne still sit safely?

Although Empress Dowager Yun didn't finish her words, how could Feng Qiao not guess that she was worried in her heart, but let him persuade Lu Feng......

Let's not say that she already knew Lu Feng's intentions, she had seen his deep affection for Xiao Quan with her own eyes, how cruel it was for her to persuade Lu Feng to marry a wife, just said that since she knew that Lu Feng didn't like women at all, she went to persuade him to marry Tadoer, how could she speak?

At the beginning, she poisoned Lu Feng for Xiao Quan, which was just a strategy to protect Xiao Quan in an emergency, but Lu Feng really protected her for several years, and did not hesitate to enter Beijing to help her when she needed it, how could she do something ungrateful?

Feng Qiao was silent for a moment before he spoke: "Queen Mother, I'm afraid I won't be able to help you in this matter." ”

"Feng Qiao?"

Empress Dowager Yun looked up in surprise, as if she didn't expect Feng Qiao to refuse.

Feng Qiao said in a low voice: "I am just a general acquaintance with General Lu, and it is not suitable for me to come forward to talk about this matter, and since General Lu is unwilling to marry a wife, he has his own plans. ”

"But those people in the western frontier..."

"The people of Western Xinjiang came to Beijing to pay tribute and submit. ”

"Dayan is the lord, and Xijiang is the minister, and they are not qualified to pick and choose this kind of thing. If Usmu was interested in marrying, the target should also be the royal family, not among the courtiers. ”

"Didn't the Queen Mother think about it, why did Ta Duoer not want to enter the palace and marry the royal family, but she singled out Lu Feng, who held real power?"
