Chapter 497: Extra One: Return
The emperor always doesn't sleep well these days. Even if Concubine Aritian is often by her side, and she is now older, she is not as stubborn and stubborn as when she was young, but her attitude towards him is much better.
This was originally something to be happy about, after all, in the days when their son, Li Jinjian, the seventh prince of Weiyang Kingdom, was exiled, Concubine Shuniang didn't even want to look at him more, let alone any tenderness and sweetness.
I finally survived until the time was ripe to bring my son back. I thought that the family and Hemeimei should live a comfortable life, but I didn't think about it or something went wrong.
The seventh lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion looked cold and delicate, but her bad stomach was no one could compare.
Calculated and calculated, he couldn't do anything to her, and finally when she was seriously ill and fell into the ground, the emperor breathed a sigh of relief, but also felt a little regretful and reluctant.
After all, she has been fighting with her for a long time, and suddenly she died by herself, it is really this black cauldron, and he can't carry it.
Sure enough, after Li Jinjian returned to Changle City, he immediately went to dig up someone's ancestral grave, and dug up the young Hua Qi who was still cold and looked at it again.
This kind of thing the emperor also wanted to do before, but it was too damaging to yin morality, he saw his humerus minister Hua Guoxiang day after day with the sad face of losing his beloved daughter but still sticking to his duty in front of him, he couldn't get down that hand to do such a lack of morality.
That unfilial son, as soon as he came back, ruined his reputation as soon as he returned.
But fortunately, he was still reasonable, but after locking himself in the house and depressed for a few days, he eased up.
That's what the emperor wanted. Although he only loves Concubine Tian Shu when he is old in this life, but when he looks at his son, he thinks that he is just a woman, and when he sits on the throne in the future, what kind of woman do you want in this world?
If you are young, you still don't have to be too long-handed.
It just so happens that there is a light but ingenious job that can be assigned to him to do, and the emperor has already made this calculation, and based on his political achievements in Jiangnan in the first half of the year, the marriage between the two countries will be completed in the second half of the year.
Originally, this was a good calculation, but I didn't expect that kid to be gone, and he almost disappeared.
The emperor hurriedly sent people to Nanzhao Kingdom to find out the truth, but the secret guard had not yet returned, and the team that sent his relatives had already arrived in Changle City first.
It turned out that the former of these two teams took a shortcut day and night, and the latter walked on the regular pipeline, but they crossed but did not meet.
The emperor hurriedly summoned the envoys to the palace, and asked why they all came back, but His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince was still nowhere to be seen?
The envoy is also quite unlucky, it was a good errand, but after running back and forth, he can receive a reward for the happy New Year. But His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince really didn't make people feel at ease, so he had to follow what he had explained, and the envoy replied resignedly: "Your Highness, Your Highness said, he said that he would ask Nanzhao to marry a princess and bring him back to Weiyang Kingdom, otherwise he would not come back!"
At first glance, the emperor said this

The first reaction was full of anger, and even the glass teacup on the case was clasped in the palm of his hand, ready to throw it to the ground at any time, and when he fell apart, he shouted again: "Evil obstacles!"
The envoy who was kneeling on the ground could also have foreseen such a development, and was trembling at this time, and did not dare to raise his head.
But when he thought about it, the reason why the son of a scumbag didn't want to return was because he wanted to marry a princess in Nanzhao Kingdom and come back, just like Na Tian Yi came to Weiyang Kingdom in the name of an envoy and then took the princess of Zhenguo away.
From this point of view, marrying a princess of Nanzhao Kingdom as the princess is a good thing rather than a bad thing for Li Jinjian.
In this way, the emperor suddenly felt much more comfortable, he slowly put down the tea cup in his hand, coughed lightly and said solemnly: "You go back first, I know." ”
The storm that the envoy had expected did not come, and he could not help but breathe a sigh of relief, and the two trembling strands got up and thanked him, and then he retreated in fear.
The Emperor then waited with anticipation and joy for his son's glorious return.
Although Weiyang and Nanzhao are located at the junction and the two borders are also close together, after all, the two countries are evenly matched, and each has thousands of miles of endless rivers and mountains and this bustling world.
Yes, if everything that happened in the Imperial City of Nanzhao Kingdom was to reach the ears of Emperor Weiyang, it would be really difficult. It's as if the secret guards were sent out here to find out why Li Jinjian didn't come back, and the family sending team over there had already entered Changle City with great fanfare, and the two parties couldn't even pass by.
Yes, while the emperor was anxiously waiting, he didn't know what kind of rebellion had happened in Nanzhao Kingdom, and he didn't know who the princess of the Imperial Kingdom who had suddenly ascended the throne was sacred.
Until that day, there was news outside the palace, saying that His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince had finally returned in time to return before the year, and at this time it was outside Changle City, and the honor guard convoy stretched for several miles, which was really extraordinary.
Because the end of the year is approaching, the emperor is inevitably much busier than usual in court affairs, so he can't think much about the affairs of thousands of miles away.
After hearing such good news, he was so busy that he didn't even drink tea, and only asked the secret guard to go out to inquire why His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince came back with such fanfare.
This time, before the secret guard could come back, someone had already come to report, only to say that the marriage was granted by the imperial decree of the Emperor of Nanzhaoguo, and the princess of the royal country was given to His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince as the main concubine. Because Nan Zhaoguo was now busy re-appointing the crown prince, he was overjoyed, and at the request of His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince, he returned with the princess.
In this way, this is not only a double happiness for Nanzhao Kingdom, but also a good thing for Weiyang Kingdom.
And this is an inconsequential princess of Zhengyipin Zhenguo in exchange for a princess of the royal country, even if this Nanzhao Kingdom returns the peach, this plum is inevitably too delicious, juicy, tempting and delicious.
In the end, he is the king of a country, and he never trusts and has doubts when he encounters trouble. But after all, it was a major matter of diplomatic relations between the two countries, and the emperor hurriedly sent someone to the city gate to greet him, and welcomed the distinguished guests to the palace first.
Before meeting the princess of the imperial kingdom, the emperor had already thought about it, no matter how serious the suspicion was, what was wrong with that princess, this family affair Li Jinjian had settled.
This is not only because of the imperial decree of the Emperor of the Southern Zhao Kingdom, but also for the sake of the good relations between the two countries

。 It's just because the emperor is ashamed of Li Jinjian because of the previous Hua Yuxiao incident, although the seventh lady has nothing to do with him because of his own illness, but they are father and son after all, if he is always unhappy because of the woman's matter, the emperor can't bear it in his heart.
Besides, I heard that His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince was very fond of the princess of the Imperial Kingdom, otherwise he would not have left the family sending team and stayed alone in Nanzhao Kingdom for so long before he was willing to come back.
So before meeting each other, the emperor had already thought about it, and this marriage was already an ironclad thing.
But just as he was sitting on the high dragon chair, with a kind and kind smile on his face, he smiled at the princess of the royal kingdom who knelt in front of him and made a big salute, "Princess, please get up." ”
That princess really has everyone's demeanor and arrogance, and respects the title of princess of the imperial country, which is really unprecedented and noble.
Li Jinjian stood beside her and saluted, and then helped her to stand up. The two handsome men and beauties stand together, and they really complement each other.
The more the emperor looked at it, the more satisfied he felt, and the smile on his face deepened.
It seems that this princess of the imperial kingdom is not only beautiful in appearance, but also very much in Li Jinjian's heart, and the two of them only see warmth between their eyebrows, which is rare and sincere.
The emperor is also an elderly person after all, and the distance between them is far away, and he only feels a little vague when he sees people, and he can't see the true face of that person carefully.
In order to show his closeness to the children, the emperor stood up with a smile, supported by the guard, and walked down the high steps step by step.
The two children in front of him were the two people he valued the most at this time. Li Jinjian is the prince who he wants to help God to inherit the throne, and the princess of the royal kingdom is his best virtuous helper, whether it is his appearance or this noble status.
But...... But what's going on?
Why is it that the closer you get, the more you feel that the woman in front of me in brocade clothes with smiling eyes is so familiar?
The emperor was suddenly a little unconvinced, and stopped moving.
Wei Jian felt that his mind was restless, and he wanted to ask softly, but he saw that the emperor suddenly raised his hand to stop him, and the smile on his face faded cleanly, only revealing a very suspicious expression, "I don't know why, I just feel that the princess of Yuguo seems to be very familiar." ”
Li Jin only smiled casually: "Father must be dazzled, although the princess has lived in Weiyang Country in the past, but as the king of a country, my father must have rarely seen people outside the palace." ”
His words did not comfort the emperor's heart, but made him more suspicious and uneasy.
The princess seemed to be very docile, and was standing there very quietly, with her head bowed and not speaking.
The Emperor couldn't help but take two more steps forward, as if he must see clearly what kind of real face was hidden under the delicate makeup full of pearls.
At this moment, Qi Nian suddenly raised his head and smiled at him, and said softly: "The emperor really has a good memory, he really hasn't seen him for many days." ”
Unexpectedly, it turned out to be an acquaintance.
The emperor was stunned for a moment, then suddenly raised his hand to cover his chest, his eyes went black and fell back, and there was no movement.
