Shen Lanying quietly asked Sikong Yan, "Anyway, why did the King of Khotan tell Emperor Hui that this dancing girl was his daughter so early?" Isn't it better to say that the princess of Khotan is dancing after dancing? ”

Sikong Yan said, "Because he hopes that the princess can marry a prince, or a noble young man with a higher status." If the king of Khotan did not say his request in advance, his daughter was afraid that she would become Emperor Hui's concubine. ”

Shen Lanying, "! ”

When the exotic tune sounded, the eyes of the more than 100 people in the audience fell on the woman in red in the audience. This show has reached the highest point of attention, and none of the ministers and vassal kings in the field have exchanged ears.

It's probably because everyone naively thinks it's a glamorous dance.

Shen Lanying also watched intently, and informed Xiaotong in advance, asking her to record the dancing girl's footwork in detail and go back to study and study.

This dancing girl is a princess after all, she didn't take off her shawl as everyone expected, and she was half-covered with a scarf the whole time.

Shen Lanying thought that she would see a glamorous dance with her arms exposed, her waist exposed, her bare feet, and her face half-masked, but in fact, although her dancing skills were still amazing, she didn't show anything that should have been exposed. This has disappointed many people.

After the dance, the music gradually subsided. The king of Khotan walked up again, took his daughter and saluted around, and asked Emperor Hui to help him find a son-in-law.

Emperor Hui nodded, looked at his three sons, and said with a smile, "Have you ever taken a fancy to other princesses?" Oh, of course, you have to be looked up to by people. ”

Emperor Hui's witty tone caused many people to laugh. The princess of Khotan raised her head slightly, glanced at the three princes, and quickly lowered her head.

The fourth prince spoke first, "Don't look at me, girl, I already have a family." Jiang Ye said, and also took An Xuening's hand in front of everyone.

A hint of surprise flashed in An Xuening's eyes, but he lowered his head to hide the past, and complied with his wishes.

Jiang Ye added with a smile, "Listen to me, there are three of us brothers, I am the youngest, and we all have three wives and four concubines." My two brothers have more women than I am. ”

Jiang Huan said quietly, "Fourth, you can't marry the princess yourself, and you won't let others marry you?" ”

Jiang Ye replied, "Oh? The third brother is tempted? ”

"Nope!"

Jiang Huanhuan finished speaking categorically, and glanced sideways at Shen Lanying.

Shen Lanying was instantly blindfolded, wondering why Jiang Huanhuan suddenly gave her such a complicated look. Sikong Yan had already reached out and pulled her face with a kind smile, "You'd better explain it to me." ”

I, I'm wronged! I didn't do anything!

Shen Lanying was about to come up with a reason, when Emperor Hui on the dragon chair opened his mouth and asked the second prince, "Shaohui, what about you?" ”

The second prince got up, first worshiped the king of Khotan, and then said to Emperor Hui, "The princess of Khotan has a noble status, no matter which of our brothers is married, we have to divorce the current princess and let the princess of Khotan be the wife, so that we can be worthy of each other's identities." Ke'er Chen can't forget the knowledge of poverty and cheapness, and the wife of the chaff will not go to court......"

A bunch of nonsense, summed up in four words: I don't want it either.

Emperor Hui shook his head helplessly, and smiled at the king of Khotan, "Brother Yu Chi also saw it, my dogs are not lucky to marry Ling Ai." If Brother Wei Chi must find the prince as his son-in-law, I still have two sons, and the fifth brother is busy with the war in Huaihai, I am afraid that he will not be able to come back in a year or two, and the sixth brother will ......"

Emperor Hui said, looked at Concubine Leng's table not far away, and said with a smile, "He's a good boy, but he's a little bit older." ”

Suddenly being named, Concubine Leng was stunned for a moment, Jiang Chenyu also felt a little embarrassed, he stood up, bowed slightly to Princess Khotan and King Khotan in the field, and after saluting, he was just about to return to his original position, but King Khotan suddenly stepped forward a few steps, "How old is Your Highness this year?" ”

"Nine." Jiang Chenyu said neither humbly nor arrogantly.

In fact, just now Concubine Leng wanted to stand up and help her son speak, but her son pressed back.

King Khotan's eyes suddenly lit up, "I have a little daughter, who is the same age as you, and looks exactly the same as Ah Liu when he was a child......"

Emperor Hui interrupted him with a smile, "Brother Wei Chi, what are you anxious about, the children are still young, wait a few more years." In fact, if you don't consider my sons, there are many young talents in my court, and the sons of the Sima family are not married yet......"

Emperor Hui said, Yu Guang glanced at Da Sima, and found that his right-hand man looked intoxicated, and only then did he realize that the Sima family might not be good at this, so he coughed dryly and said, "Anyway, it's not in a hurry, it's still a long time, let the children have more contact." ”

The king of Khotan didn't know which one was the big Sima, but when he heard that Emperor Hui didn't want to talk about it now, and it was not easy to insist on it anymore, he asked his daughter to step back and return to her position, but her expression was a little worried.

Under the table, Shen Lanying couldn't help muttering, "The king of Khotan wants to marry and wants to go crazy." Nine-year-olds don't let go of it......"

"Because it is a small country, it has to rely on the protection of the Yong Dynasty." Sikong Yan was not very sympathetic to Khotan's situation, but said with interest, "Who do you guess the princess of Khotan will marry in the end?" ”

"I guess I'll go back to Khotan...... When she danced just now, did you pay attention to her eyes, she looked reluctant? ”

"That's for sure, what girl who is forced to marry is willing?"

"But there are people who want to get married...... Shen Lanying said, looking at the pair of princes and princesses who were frowning.

"The eighth princess and Wei Chi Gu...... Actually, I don't understand, this is really a strange thing that is rare in a century. ”

After the link of promoting the princess passed, the banquet returned to a relaxed and happy atmosphere, and the beautiful women were singing and dancing in the main hall, and several Tibetan kings also presented tributes to the capital in turn.

This time, Prince Qiuzi brought a lot of gifts, among which the most in line with Emperor Hui's heart was a pair of young and beautiful twin orchids.

When Emperor Hui saw the pair of twin sisters, his eyes were almost green, and he happened to drink wine today and was in a good mood, so he mentioned ten years ago, when King Qiuzi made a pilgrimage to Beijing.

At that time, King Qiuzi also brought countless treasures, including an orchid.

Emperor Hui called Concubine Leng up, pointed at her and said to Prince Qiuzi, "This is a beautiful woman sent by your brother ten years ago, there are many women in my palace, only she has won my heart, she has given birth to a prince for me, and now she is about to add Ding to the royal family." ”

When Emperor Hui said this, his face was full of smiles, and the wrinkles on his face were piled together. But no one understood why Emperor Hui suddenly said such a paragraph, so they had to collectively congratulate Emperor Hui on becoming a father again.

Emperor Hui took these two orchids and let them live next to Changxin Palace, that is, the three orchids lived very closely.
