Mobile reading
Xuanyuan Cheng followed Emperor Tianlong into the imperial study, Emperor Tianlong returned to the throne and sat on it, and then looked at Xuanyuan Cheng standing below, seeing that he was motionless, Emperor Tianlong's face was a little unsightly. Pinshu.com
He is the emperor of Tiansheng, it stands to reason that Xuanyuan Cheng should give him a salute, and Tiansheng has been in constant dispute with North Vietnam over the years, but with Bei Ming Xuan in charge, there are many victories and few defeats, and most of the time North Vietnam still knows the times and considers itself a country. Therefore, Xuanyuan Cheng should be a minister in front of Emperor Tianlong, and he should salute Emperor Tianlong with a courtesy of a minister.
Now looking at the ghost face on Xuanyuan Cheng's face, Emperor Tianlong was already uncomfortable, no matter how rude he was, Emperor Tianlong couldn't help it.
He snorted heavily.
Xuanyuan Cheng didn't move, and at this time he slowly made a North Vietnamese salute, and his voice couldn't be heard respectfully: "Xuanyuan Cheng has seen His Majesty Tiansheng." ”
What kind of etiquette is this one who does not kneel or bend?
Emperor Tianlong waved his hand, and asked impatiently, "His Royal Highness King Cheng said that he wanted to discuss the matter of choosing a concubine with me?" ”
"Yes." Xuanyuan Cheng replied lightly.
Emperor Tianlong twisted his eyebrows: "Tiansheng chose a concubine for my Prince Yipin, in order to be able to select a princess with both talents and appearances, so I invited the world, you Beiyue brought the princess to participate, you are just a participant, I don't know, what do I want to discuss with you?" ”
This is to tell Xuanyuan Cheng directly, you are a participant, and you are not qualified to discuss the matter of choosing a concubine, let alone discuss.
Xuanyuan Cheng was not angry, in fact, if he was angry, he would not be able to see it at all if he had a ghost mask on his face.
"This king is not discussing with the emperor, in fact, he just wants to make a suggestion to the emperor."
"Oh?" Emperor Tianlong sneered and said sarcastically, "You people in North Vietnam are really idle, and you have nothing to think about, okay, since King Cheng has this idle effort, I should also listen to it, then let's listen to it." ”
Xuanyuan Cheng couldn't hear Emperor Tianlong's ridicule, and said lightly: "Now that our people from Beiyue, Nanliang and Tanglin are here, this king has also heard that other Tiansheng famous ladies who want to choose concubines are also ready. With so many people participating in the selection of concubines by King Ming, the emperor must have a headache too. ”
"How?" Emperor Tianlong twisted his eyebrows.
Xuanyuan said: "The emperor ordered the selection of concubines for King Ming, what he said is that regardless of identity, King Ming is famous all over the world, admires him, there are too many people who fancy the position of Princess Ming, there are many people, and it is easy to mess up, doesn't the emperor think that he should choose the best again?" ”
Emperor Tianlong still twisted his eyebrows: "What is the best choice?" ”
"It is to select a part of the women who are interested in running, conduct the final screening, and then select the best one to be the princess of Ming." Xuanyuan Cheng looked at Emperor Tianlong and said meaningfully, "Princess Ming's position is so important, and the emperor knows it." ”
Emperor Tianlong's heart jumped, and Xuanyuan admitted that there was something in his words.
Princess Ming?
He only chose a concubine for Bei Mingxuan, not only to humiliate Bei Mingxuan, but more importantly, he wanted to control Bei Mingxuan.
So this princess must be determined by him.
However, until now, he has not yet confirmed a candidate.
Among the nobles in the court, there are indeed many talented and beautiful people, but those nobles either admire Bei Mingxuan in their hearts, and they are not easy to control at all, or their family background cannot fight against the Ming Wangfu at all.
Originally, he wanted to choose one in the Zhao family, but the Zhao family did not have the right age, and he wanted to choose one from the side branches, and he felt even more unsafe. Once this kind of thing is discovered, there will be even greater trouble at that time, not to mention that Bei Mingxuan can't be obedient, he chooses a concubine for him to calculate him, and he will definitely make a counter-calculation back.
Now that the selection of Princess Ming is ongoing, Emperor Tianlong still has a headache.
As for the princesses of Beiyue and Tanglin, and the county lord of Nanliang?
Not even more in his consideration! A woman from a foreign country is not easy to control, not to mention, and in a foreign country, his natural heart is also different, and he has nowhere to start!
But now Xuanyuan Cheng actually took the initiative to talk to him about the selection of Princess Ming.
Xuanyuan Cheng is definitely not a person without a purpose, he can come, he must have a purpose, and he has a plan.
Speaking of which, there was the last time he stayed in the Immortal Courtyard, Emperor Tianlong believed that Xuanyuan Cheng was hostile to the Northern Xuanxuan, although he was not sure that Xuanyuan Cheng's plan was what he wanted, but it was not impossible to talk to him.
"Come on, show King Cheng's seat."
Wu An personally trotted to move a chair over and moved it behind Xuanyuan Cheng, who was not polite and sat down indifferently.
"What does King Cheng think about the selection of Princess Ming?" Emperor Tianlong looked at Xuanyuan Cheng and reluctantly allowed himself to ignore their ghost faces.
Xuanyuan admitted: "The king of Ming is known in the world, and he is incoherent, of course, he must be matched with a stunning beauty." ”
When Emperor Tianlong listened to this adjective, he only felt that the huge waves in his heart were rising, and his face almost changed.
Xuanyuan Cheng continued: "This king's little sister, Princess Ling, has been carefully cultivated by her father and queen mother since she was a child, with exquisite talent and refined appearance, and she is the first beauty in our North Vietnam, what does the emperor think?" ”
The last time Xuanyuan Ling and Xuanyuan Cheng came to the palace to meet him, he didn't notice it at the time, but since she is a princess, her appearance should not be bad, and her talent will not be too bad.
"At a glance, Princess Ling is indeed a peerless beauty. Just ......"
After he finished speaking, Xuanyuan continued: "Sister Ling is the princess of Beiyue, and she is also the beloved sister of this king, this king is in the same breath as her, if she becomes the princess of Ming in the future, this king will be the closest relationship with King Ming." ”
Emperor Tianlong nodded, but his eyes were gloomy, staring at Xuanyuan Cheng: "When the time comes, King Cheng and King Ming will be in the same vein, will they be far away from me?" ”
"Does the emperor think this is possible?" Xuanyuan Cheng suddenly laughed, "Heaven and earth are the king's master, the pro-family is the last, the king is the first, even if this king becomes an in-law with the king of Ming, the most respectful is of course the emperor." ”
Emperor Tianlong must have it in his heart.
He said tentatively: "...... the matter of staying in the Immortal Courtyard last time?"
"This matter is hated by this king all his life, and he will not share the sky!" Xuanyuan Cheng said in a cold voice.
Hearing this, Emperor Tianlong suddenly laughed.
He originally chose to cooperate with Xuanyuan Cheng, and with the first time, it is normal to have a second time now, not to mention, Xuanyuan Cheng also guaranteed it.
Don't share the sky with the North Stygian! It's just great!
Now because of the affairs of the Zhao family, he is worried that no one will share the same enemy with him, and no one will help him deal with Bei Mingxuan, but now that he has King Cheng, his heart has finally settled down, this is the only ruthless character who is not afraid of Bei Mingxuan.
Emperor Tianlong's heart was about to have a headache, and he couldn't help but want to laugh twice.
Xuanyuan Cheng looked at Emperor Tianlong and said, "In addition to this matter, this king has one more thing he wants to discuss with the emperor. ”
"What's the matter?" Emperor Tianlong had a good heart at this time, and looked at Xuanyuan Cheng with a smile, and he didn't feel so disgusting when he saw Xuanyuan Cheng's ghost face.
Xuanyuan Cheng's eyes suddenly narrowed slightly, and his voice was lowered.
"This king is seventy-seven out of twenty this year, and there is no concubine, and there is a lack of a person in the palace who can manage the director."
Emperor Tianlong understood as soon as he heard this, and said, "I happen to have a daughter-in-law who is of the same age. ”
He is talking about Princess Changle, this is Princess Changle, Princess Chang has such an honorable name, of course, it must be used to seek glory for the country.
He promised to cooperate with Xuanyuan Cheng again to let the women of North Vietnam enter the Ming Palace, if Changle remarries to North Vietnam, it will be a double guarantee for him.
However, Xuanyuan Cheng's tone was not very good.
"Your Majesty, you are a little too arbitrary."
Emperor Tianlong's face changed.
Xuanyuan Cheng said coldly: "The princess of this king is naturally in line with the king's wishes. ”
Emperor Tianlong suddenly thought of the excerpt he had seen before, and looked at Xuanyuan Cheng in surprise.
Xuanyuan Cheng said at this time: "Your Majesty, this king's sister is the royal descendant of my Beiyue, the serious eldest princess, the princess of this king, if it is from Tiansheng, it must also be the eldest princess." ”
"Changning?" Emperor Tianlong is still a little unacceptable.
Xuanyuan Cheng nodded affirmatively.
Emperor Tianlong's mind turned.
If he cooperates with Xuanyuan Cheng and chooses that Xuanyuan Ling, then he must remove the obstacle of Ruan Jiujiu.
Now it is rumored in Beijing that Bei Mingxuan has taken a fancy to Ruan Jiujiu, if Bei Mingxuan really wants Ruan Jiujiu at that time, it will disrupt their plans.
If Xuanyuan Cheng takes Ruan Jiujiu away, then this matter will be completely resolved.
After thinking for a while, Emperor Tianlong said: "Changning's aura is compelling, and it is indeed worthy of the king." ”
Xuanyuan stood up and said, "Thank you for the emperor's success." ”
Waiting for Xuanyuan Cheng to leave, Wu An poured a cup of tea for Emperor Tianlong, handed it over, and said carefully: "The slave heard that the girl in Beiyue is very spicy, isn't the emperor afraid that Princess Ling will become the princess of Ming and be disobedient?" ”
Emperor Tianlong sneered and said, "What are you afraid of? What is a princess? The important thing is that Xuanyuan Cheng, as long as he promises that he will help me deal with my good imperial brother. ”
Wu An smiled: "What the emperor said is extremely true. ”
"Doesn't Xuanyuan Cheng have something to ask for now? He didn't dare to be disobedient, and he himself had a grudge against Bei Mingxuan, so I wasn't worried that he would turn against him. Emperor Tianlong put the teacup on the table for a meal, and said, "The draft decree means that the princess chooses a concubine, and before the official start, I will hold a spring banquet, so everyone who participates in the election can participate, just ...... When it's time to warm up before choosing! ”
Emperor Tianlong's speed was very fast, and the decree was issued to everyone after two hours.
Of course, the Ming Wangfu was the first to receive the news.
After listening to the will, Ruan Jiujiu said a little funny: "Still warm up before the election?" When the prince chooses a concubine, there will definitely be a lot of people to participate, is this the first thing to audition? ”
"Auditions?" The stars don't know why.
Ruan Jiujiu explained: "It means to make a rough selection first, and filter out those that are too bad first." ”
Xing'er nodded, and looked at Ruan Jiujiu seriously: "That's fine, the slave thinks that those who don't look as good as the girl should be filtered out." ”
What does it matter to her? Ruan Jiujiu twisted her eyebrows, and she didn't participate in this warm-up audition!
She was about to open her mouth and tell Xing'er that this matter was none of her business, and she didn't have to attend this spring banquet at all, when she heard footsteps coming in.
