Chapter 82: Friendship

The Empress Dowager was very cordial to Qin Heng and Gu Chenxiao, the two foreign princes, and kindly asked the two emperors about their health, and thanked Qin Heng: "Thank you to your father for the mourning family, your father is really a person who values friendship, and he has kept it in his heart all these years, Zhu Guo is rare, but it is not as good as your father's friendship, and it is even more difficult for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to run this trip in person."

Qin Heng came with his father's entrustment, and he didn't even dare to say it, and smiled modestly at the empress dowager: "My father often teaches me, and I receive the grace of people's dripping water, and I should repay it when the spring springs." Although the Queen Mother was a gesture that day, it was a life-saving grace to my father. ”

Everyone talked happily, and the queen mother pointed to the fruits on the table and frequently gave in, and the appearance of kindness made people feel close.

Qin Heng was worried that he hadn't found a chance to convey his father's meaning these days, how could he let go of such a good opportunity, so he thought about taking the opportunity to reveal the meaning of Jian'an's desire to marry Xixia a little.

Qin Heng picked up the big red robe that had just come up and took a sip, and slowly put it down, thinking that it would be more appropriate to start with the friendship between the two countries.

He bowed his hand to the Empress Dowager and said: "My father once said that because of the great grace of the Empress Dowager, as long as he reigns for one day, Jian'an will not fight with your country for a day, and I hope to see that Heng will also be fortunate in the future, and the friendship with your country will be deeper." ”

Murong Wei is here, she is the best choice with her relatives, Qin Heng naturally can't say that his father intends to marry Xixia, just to the point.

Chu Zhaohui only heard Qin Heng's opening and closing his mouth about the friendship between the two countries, and he didn't understand his potential meaning yet. Su Duhan's heart was racing, and he could already hear it clearly, his eyes were dark, and he didn't feel a thin anger.

What kind of friendship can be deeper than the grace of saving lives? Naturally, it can only become a family, and the water and milk are inseparable from each other.

The elders were here, and it was not their turn to speak, so Su Duhan drank all the tea in the cup in one gulp, and motioned to the palace people to change it for him, and see how the imperial grandmother replied.

Gu Chenxiao and Qin Heng have been in the same hall for many days, and today they heard Qin Heng reveal their true intentions, and they also heard that their hearts moved, and they understood the deep meaning of their father's order to make friends with Qin Heng.

Whether this matter is successful or not, Jian'an has already put his sincerity here. If the two countries are on good terms, if there is any change, Kangnan will be the enemy on his back.

The father is wise, knowing Jian'an's intentions, he must also see it himself and recognize the situation in front of him.

Gu Chenxiao took a candied blessing melon and put it in his mouth, and like Su Duhan, he quietly waited for the queen mother's reply.

But seeing that the queen mother didn't seem to understand the true meaning of Qin Heng's words, she still smiled heartily and said to Qin Heng: "What the prince wants, what the family wants." The mourning family is old, there is nothing else to ask for, when he was young, he suffered from the soldiers, and now he is old, and he just wants to see the world Haiyan River clear. ”

The plum blossoms in the hall are fragrant, and the rouge is generally dyed. The Empress Dowager casually took a green calyx with golden stamen from the bottle, sniffed it lightly at the end of her nose, and said with satisfaction: "Your two emperors and Your Majesty are both kind-hearted people, and your younger generation has such expectations, so it must not be difficult to realize the wish of mourning the family." ”

The three families have their own old enemies that have not been cleared, and they have not met each other in a very tacit understanding over the years, but they have each consolidated their own territory.

Jiang is still old and spicy, the Queen Mother said it very satisfactorily, every word is replying to Qin Heng, and every word is not the answer he wants.

Su Duhan listened quietly, and the cold air slowly soaked into his heart.

The imperial grandmother was already strange last night, the filial clothes and hemp rope failed to prick her already fragile nerves, and today's answer was smooth and decent, and it didn't seem to be chaotic at all.

Turning her head to look at her mother, her mother's eyes flashed with surprise, obviously even more confused, but she just smiled well and echoed the words of the imperial grandmother.

Su Duhan secretly blamed himself for not paying enough attention, these days he was only busy with his father's funeral, ignoring the obvious turmoil in the palace.

Today, it seems that the new doctor is capable. The emperor's grandmother's illness is not as simple as getting better, but I am afraid that she has already recovered.

So in the eyes of the imperial grandmother, will the little cleverness that she thought was well hidden disappear like the snow melting? Just like parents facing children who want to cover up, it is not worth her attention at all.

Qin Heng was very smart, and he heard that the Queen Mother did not approve of it, so he didn't mention it anymore, and only smiled and said something about the scenery of Xixia and the customs. After chatting for about half an hour, the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves.

Afraid that the Empress Dowager would be unwell after sitting for a long time, Qin Heng and Gu Chenxiao looked at each other slightly, and said goodbye to the Empress Dowager at the same time, saying that they were going to prepare a state banquet at noon and go back to Ninghui Hall to change their clothes first.

Because it was the first time they met, the queen mother gave each of them a set of four treasures made in the study room as a meeting gift, and still asked Su Duhan to send the two out.

Su Duhan smiled lightly, suppressed the anger in his eyes, politely made a gesture of invitation to the two of them, and still treated them as politely as when they came, and sent people out of the palace gate before saying goodbye and coming back.

Seeing the two leave, Su Duhan's eyes gradually became cold as ice, he stepped on the road and walked back, the slanting bamboo branches hung on his sleeves, he was annoyed, and broke the bamboo branches casually, making a crisp sound.

Three years of fatherly filial piety is his hard injury, and he can't talk about marriage at this time, but if he lets him give Murong Wei to others, it is definitely not his intention.

How to move next, he has to weigh it carefully, and he wants to go back to Fuzhong to ask his cousin from Yunnan.

Empress Chu has many ears and eyes, although she is not in the mother's apse, within a moment or three, someone has already passed Qin Heng's words to her ears, which also confirms her previous speculation with Emperor Chongming.

Jian'an does have the intention of being close, although the initiative is in the hands of Xixia, it is also like a hot potato, that is, it cannot be picked up or thrown.

But my daughter only turned thirteen in June, and she was too young to be old, and there was a childhood sweetheart in the middle who was in the way of Su Duhan, who was born in the middle, which is a lifelong event related to her daughter, no matter what, you have to listen to what your daughter means. Now, it's a good idea to start by procrastinating.

There was still half an hour before the state banquet, Empress Chu invited Qin Heng to drink tea in the flower hall, tactfully expressed her meaning, and pulled the topic to Qin Heng's eldest sister, Princess Changrui, and smiled with him: "I heard that Princess Changrui gave birth to Lin'er a few years ago, and the palace has not yet been congratulated, and His Majesty the Emperor of your country sent Zhu Guo again, which is really deserved." ”

Princess Changrui is Qin Heng's sister-in-law, born to the Empress of the Zhenggong Palace, and she is the eldest daughter, and she is very favored by Emperor Jian'an. After marrying in the early years, he first had a daughter, and now he has a son, and Emperor Jian'an was very happy and personally gave his grandson a name.

Empress Chu waved her hand, and the palace people presented the prepared gifts, and she smiled at Qin Heng and said, "The gifts prepared for the little prince, please ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to hand them over." I really envy the good fortune of your father, and the next generation will already have both children and daughters. (To be continued.) )
