Chapter Ninety-Three: Refusal to Marry (End of Part I)

Previous Chapter

Gu Qingping stood up vigilantly and protected Showa and Shen Miaolan behind him. At this time, a Mongolian guard wearing a sword-sleeved robe and carrying a large sword at his waist had entered the door.

After seeing Gu Qingping, he saluted with Mongolian etiquette. Lang said, "The guards under the account of the King of the Lower Mongolian Khan, on the order of Uzh Nagege, came to welcome Shen Wu Girl to the mansion for a gathering. ”

The visitor was very polite, and Gu Qingping's frowning brows relaxed. He returned the salute with a fist, "Thank you for your kindness." ”

The guard's face was black and red, his thick eyebrows were thin, and he looked over Gu Qingping's shoulder at the two girls behind him. Seeing that Shen Miaolan and Showa are dressed in ordinary clothes, the hairpin ring earrings are very delicate and luxurious. For a while, I couldn't guess which one was the Shen Wu girl in Gege's mouth.

Shen Miaolan saw that he was puzzled, so she hurriedly got up and saluted, which was regarded as a greeting.

The guard saw Miaolan's eyebrows, thinking of his strange personality, and couldn't help but look at Miaolan with some sympathy. "The situation in Yarub City is turbulent today, and Gege is worried that the girl will encounter danger when she enters the city, so he specially ordered his subordinates to come and respond. ”

Shen Miaolan said with a smile, "Thank you Gege for your concern, my cousin and I originally wanted to go to the city to pay a visit." In this way, it will be annoying to the big brother of the guard. ”

The guard shook his head with a smile, and then withdrew first to wait for Shen Miaolan and his party to leave.

Showa pouted, slightly unhappy. "This Uzhina was originally the youngest daughter left by the first concubine of the Khan King, and her personality is very tricky and willful. My sister suffered a lot from her. ”

Shen Miaolan was a little embarrassed, "It's a good idea for people to have good intentions, let's put aside the past grievances for the time being." Let's talk about meeting Hee and Princess Hee first. ”

Although Showa was reluctant, he had to nod.

Gu Qingping remembered yesterday's embarrassment, and he was also a little unnatural. Turn around and head out to arrange your preparations.

Because of the escort of the Mongolian royal family, Shen Miaolan and his party were very eye-catching. There was a lot of talk in the streets.

"I heard that the emperor Lao'er wants to stabilize the country and society, and is good-neighborly and friendly with our Mongolia, and intends to marry another princess. I don't know that today's line of Central Plains people can be related to the generation of princesses. The meat seller wiped his oily hand on the coarse cloth apron in front of him, and looked gossipily at his companion who was raising a knife to cut off the leg of mutton.

"You don't care who the emperor sends to make peace, anyway, it's not for you, a bachelor, to be his wife. Sell your meat well, and don't worry about the others. "Uncle with a knife, with a beard. Although he is also powerful, he is obviously not as strong as the uncle next to him.

"I've been in Mongolia for so many years, and when you mention the emperor Lao'er, you're still so uncomfortable!" the uncle muttered and turned into the house to boil water, but didn't mention it.

Uncle Beard raised his head and set his eyes on the slowly moving carriage, which landed on the face of Shen Miaolan, who lifted the curtain and looked out. Although it is only a corner, it is enough to see people's eyebrows. The uncle's expression froze, and as soon as the strength of his hand was loosened, the knife almost fell on the board.

I always heard people talk about the Golden Tripod Tent, and I thought it was a Mongolian Tent with a glittering gold roof. Unexpectedly, in Yalubu City, there is not much difference from the Central Plains buildings. It is nothing more than a few carved beams and paintings, which are not as delicate as the Central Plains.

"Why, you think we're grassland barbarians living in tents?" Urina was a little disdainful and unconvinced when she saw Showa looking the room up and down.

Showa pouted noncommittally, "You Mongolians don't give up your seat or serve tea, just tell us to stand like this?"

Wu Rina snorted coldly, ignored her, and only took Shen Miaolan's hand, "Sister Shen come and sit." As he spoke, he pulled Shen Miaolan to sit down on the big rosewood bed in the room.

Showa gas stomping. "Such an arrogant person," he stretched out his hand to pull Shen Miaolan, "Cousin, let's not pay attention to her, let's go see my sister first." ”

Urina has long known Showa's identity, and she is not at odds with Hee-hee, so it is not pleasing to look at her. Snorted, "You can go wherever you like, Sister Shen is my guest." What are you pulling her for?"

"She's my cousin, so naturally she wants to be with me. We're here to visit relatives, are we here to make friends with you?" Showa didn't show weakness and pulled Miaolan hard.

Uzhna couldn't argue with her, and she refused to show weakness with the strength in her hands. Miaolan was pulled left and right, miserable. In the end, I had to cry and say with a sad face, "We are here to enjoy the mountains and rivers as a painting gift on the order of the Queen Mother, and since we came to Mongolia, as subjects of Daqi, according to the rules, we should detain the princess." It is an honor to be friends with Uzhnagge. ”

"So much nonsense, is it her or me!"

"So much nonsense, is it her or me!"

Uzhna and Showa were in unison. As soon as the two of them spoke, they were both annoyed in their hearts and glared at each other fiercely.

Shen Miaolan was depressed.

When the political parties were deadlocked, someone outside came to preach the princess.

The little maid lifted the heavy door curtain, and Xihe, dressed in Mongolian palace clothes, walked in with a smile on his face. Seeing the current scene, I have guessed the situation in my heart. couldn't help laughing, "When did the three of you become so close, you have to twist and talk together." ”

In the end, she is a princess, and her status is noble. Even if Urina didn't like her, she didn't dare to make an appointment with the rules. took the lead and let go of his hand and saluted Xihe.

Showa raised his chin triumphantly and raised his eyebrows at Uzhina. Quickly ran to Xihe's side and said coquettishly, "Sister, Showa misses you so much." As he spoke, he wrapped his arms around Hee-hee's waist and kept her.

Hee Ho looked doting and patted her on the back gently. "Okay, okay, how old are you, and you're still so childish. ”

Showa felt as if the hem of her skirt had been tugged, and looked down to see the little boy with a white and tender little face, looking at her with some curiosity. The child's pink carving was very cute, and she couldn't help but squat down and pinch his little face. "You're my little nephew. ”

The little boy is three or four years old, and he is clever and likable. Seeing that Showa also felt close, he smiled and revealed two small tiger teeth. Tian Tian said, "Little aunt, I'm Archie. ”

Showa suddenly felt that her close relatives were cute, and ordered someone to take a small gold lock that had been prepared for her a long time ago.

At this time, Xihe had already walked to Shen Miaolan's side, and smiled Yingying to help Miaolan who was saluting. "You are the fifth sister of Shen, right? Grandmother Su Ri often praised you for your talent and appearance. When I saw it today, it was really good-looking. ”

Miao Lan hung her head embarrassedly, "The princess praised it falsely." ”

Several people exchanged pleasantries for a while, after adjusting the contradiction between Showa and Uzhna. The two children who had no city in their hearts took little Archie and ran outside to play.

Only Xihe and Shen Miaolan were left in the house. Xihe dismissed the people who served in the house, leaving only the maid of the Central Plains.

Along the way, Miaolan had already discovered many heretics, and the Queen Mother probably had another deep meaning when she ordered her to go to Mongolia this time. You can't hide from what you should come, and it's not a good thing to be able to come happily.

After Xihe organized some language in his heart, he informed Shen Miaolan of Mongolia's grim form at this time. Then cut straight to the point, "...... The father also intends to make peace with Mongolia again, and only Showa is the right age to marry at the moment. But look at her, she's still a childish mess. Where do you know what's at stake in this marriage? You are gentle and steady. He will be favored by Yarbusen. ”

Shen Miaolan was neither surprised nor panicked, and looked at Xihe with a pair of watery eyes. "Miaolan's status is humble, and she doesn't dare to take on this heavy responsibility. If there is a conflict of interest between the two countries, it cannot be resolved amicably. Many years ago, when Mongolia and the Central Plains were in the gap, the emperor sent the princess to make peace. Now that interests are conflicting again, the princess has children and daughters, and she has not been able to stabilize the alliance. What if I have one more? I don't want to be a sacrifice, but I am willing to defend my family and country. ”

Xihe was stunned by Shen Miaolan's words, the injustice and resentment in his heart, and the hope that he didn't dare to say, was easily said by Shen Miaolan. She didn't know if she was more shocked or relieved at the moment.

Shen Miaolan's arrival may upset the balance that has been maintained for many years. Gu Qingping, who was guarding outside, may be the reason why Miaolan can have such courage. Hee-ho envied her and hesitated.

What will happen in the future? No one can say. <
