Chapter 494: Purpose

Immediately, Princess Xiangshan looked at Su Yiqing with some doubts, remembering that the last time she was in advance with this princess Ding, although Princess Ding did not show indifference, she was not so eager, why did her attitude completely change today, it was like two people.

Touching Princess Xiangshan's inquiring gaze, Su Yiqing instantly realized that she was too eager, but after thinking about it, what about this?

Even if Princess Xiangshan can see that she cares about this matter, what does it mean? Women are fickle.

Therefore, Su Yiqing said softly: "Princess, maybe some of the previous conversations have made you misunderstand me, I don't care about the situation in the court, even if I don't care about the affairs of the court, I will always care about my husband, once the war starts, it will be very dangerous, who can not worry? It's just that some time ago, I was not in a very good mood, and there were a lot of worries inside and outside the house, so I was a little ...... Impotence. ”

"I see. Princess Xiangshan nodded, expressing her understanding, she is also a woman, and now she can gradually understand the mood of Princess Ding, because she didn't care about her husband and the sixth prince, so she didn't care, but after a few turmoil, she slowly discovered the benefits of the six princes.

The six princes are incompetent and cowardly, and they can't afford to take on big responsibilities, but many times, men don't have to be capable, the identity of the six princes determines that he already has everything that ordinary people don't have, as long as he is honest, he can have no worries for a lifetime.

When she suffered, she didn't need anyone to give her advice, and sometimes a real greeting of concern was enough to warm people's hearts. This was done by the Six Princes.

Thinking about leaving the Meng clan, some clansmen also hinted at her that with her identity, if she married the Great Zhou Emperor, she might not be able to do anything to stay in the harem, but it would be better if she could marry the royal relatives and nobles who held real power or even had the opportunity to ascend the throne.

The most powerful is the king of Ding, Lian Yufeng, who is not very old, and is very suitable in all aspects, and even a princess before Yufeng is another county lord. I don't care about marrying the second one.

Of course, I think so. After coming, I learned that Lian Yufeng had been engaged, and she was the daughter of another general of the Great Zhou Dynasty, with her princess. She is not going to rob her husband from anyone. I dispelled that thought.

Then I found out. They can't pick and choose the candidates for this family affair at all, and the Great Zhou Emperor has no room for them to negotiate at all, so he directly said that he was the sixth prince. I can't help but refuse, I am also a prince anyway, although the biological mother of the sixth prince has a low status and I am not favored, but it is difficult to predict what will happen in the future.

Probably because her expectations were too high earlier, she was disappointed, and then everything didn't go well, which made her think about it for a while, and it was the worry of her life that made her wake up and re-examine her future path.

Princess Xiangshan was immersed in emotions and followed Su Yiqing around the garden again.

Su Yiqing said suddenly: "Princess, your garden is very different from when I came here before." ”

"Oh, this is what I have to do when I have nothing to do, and I have asked the master to carefully repair it. Princess Xiangshan said with a smile, "Follow the local customs, although I like flowers and trees, but after all, it does not conform to the aesthetic concept of the nobles of the Great Zhou Dynasty, so I specially invited a famous master in Yancheng to redesign and renovate, what does the princess think?"

Su Yiqing raised her eyes again, probably a lesson from the past, in order to avoid the recurrence of someone hiding in the depths of the flowers, Princess Xiangshan tried her best to arrange the garden very open, the flowers and plants were low and sparse, mainly precious, she only said: "It looks good, but I am really not proficient in these." ”

"Those who are not proficient think it is good, and it must be even better. "Princess Xiangshan is still more talkative.

"Probably. Su Yiqing was not in the mood to talk about this, and her tone was a little low.

Princess Xiangshan said: "Princess, you really don't have to worry too much, in my opinion, there is no major war between countries at present." ”

"How can you see it?" asked Su Yiqing with staring eyes.

Princess Xiangshan stopped under a flower tree, and then said: "At present, all countries can't withstand a big war, and I don't know much about the treasury of the Great Zhou, but looking at the mediocre crop harvest in recent years, I know that the treasury has not much money and grain, and my Meng clan is the same, Dajing is good at farming, and it may be better, but Dajing is now divided into three parts of the world, and they can't fight themselves, how can they have the spare strength to provoke the surrounding countries?"

Su Yiqing didn't think so, she had read many books before, and the outbreak of many wars didn't care whether the country was rich and the people were strong, and there were also monarchs who spent manpower and material resources to conquer other countries.

And Princess Xiangshan was also worried before, but it seems that after a few days, the positions of the two have been reversed.

It's just that to put it bluntly, what she really cares about is the relationship between Da Zhou and Dajing, if the relationship between the two countries really eases up and there are mutual contacts, it means that many Dajing people will come to Yancheng.

Maybe inadvertently, she can meet one or two old people on the street, just like meeting a cuckoo, so suddenly and without warning, it makes me shudder to think about it.

"Princess, forgive me for taking the liberty of asking, did you encounter something?" Princess Xiangshan hesitated for a long time, but still couldn't help but ask.

Su Yiqing said: "No, it's just a little worried, probably because the prince has been away for too long, and a woman is a little anxious to stay at home alone...... It made the princess smile. ”

"Oh!" Princess Xiangshan also expressed her understanding, sometimes women are really not so strong, she thought she could do a great career before, but it turned out that she is still not capable at present.

The two were speechless for a while, walked a few more steps, and inadvertently, walked to the place where they were attacked last time.

Princess Xiangshan stopped again and said, "I have been investigating the assassin for a long time last time, but I have not found out who is the mastermind. ”

"This kind of people are dead, not to mention that people are dead, even if they are not dead, it is really not so easy to find out what clues. Su Yiqing comforted Princess Xiangshan in turn, "Don't be too deliberate to investigate, come to think of it, this is not a personal vendetta." ”

Princess Xiangshan looked at Su Yiqing with a strange look, and said after a long time: "Princess, forgive me for taking the liberty of saying it, you don't want to know the truth at that time?"

"Sometimes it's happiest not to know. Su Yiqing said frankly. "I used to read an idle book, and there was a sentence in it that impressed me very much, truth and happiness cannot be both.

"But are you happy now?" Princess Xiangshan asked softly, "If you don't know the truth all your life, then you may be happy in the past, but if you already know, you are almost sure, because you are afraid of this certain result, you choose to escape, and would rather not know." Can you really get over it?"

Su Yiqing was stunned for a moment. Princess Xiangshan's words struck at the most fearful place in her heart.

Yes, she is willing to be deceived for the rest of her life, but obviously at this time, she can't be deceived at all. Step by step, the truth is approaching. She's just holding on.

"It's me. Gaffes. Princess Xiangshan looked at Su Yiqing's expression a little gloomy, thinking about it, she shouldn't poke at someone else's sore spot. quickly changed the subject.

"No, the princess is just telling the truth. Su Yiqing smiled reluctantly, "You're not wrong." ”

"If there's anything I can do, the princess just asks. Princess Xiangshan said sincerely, "The princess is my benefactor, and if you have something, you can tell me." ”

Su Yiqing nodded.

At the end, she made a request, if Princess Xiangshan knew anything about the court or the latest news about the relationship between the two countries, please inform her that she had lived in the Dingwang Mansion for a long time, and the news outside was not very fulfilling.

Princess Xiangshan naturally agreed, and this is not something worth keeping secret.

As long as this princess Ding is not afraid of being talked about and gets close to her, a foreign princess, she will not be taboo in words.

……

Mongfu.

Mrs. Meng was too worried, so she told Meng Ye about the speculation.

Meng also listened, completely scoffed, and mocked: "It is said that women have long hair and short knowledge, and they don't worry about what they should worry about all day long, just think about something that they don't have, and have nothing to do." ”

"I care about your baby daughter?" was ridiculed like that, and Mrs. Meng became very angry.

Meng Ye said: "You are worrying about the sky, don't say that what kind of Dajing county lord is your boring speculation, even if there is really a case, what can it be? Not to mention how she can gain a foothold in Da Zhou as an enemy county lord, she is a woman, who has been abducted by bandits for so many years, and has no innocence, how can she appear in front of people? What can she threaten Xiaofu?"

"That being said, after all, it is the first wife that Dingwang Mingmei is marrying. Mrs. Meng said, "This title is not a trivial matter, if one is not done well, Xiaofu may become a side room." ”

"How is this possible?" Meng also smiled disdainfully, "You women, what kind of title are you worried about, what is your reputation? If you don't take it seriously, it's just a name, don't worry about it, I don't believe it, a county lord who was born in an enemy country and lost his innocence can still carry me into the princess Ding with a sedan chair and give birth to a daughter-in-law, even if it is a saint, you can't force King Ding to recognize such a princess, right? Where does King Ding's face go?" The envoys of the Great Jing are here to sue for peace, not to fight for anger, they want to bring such a woman here, it is clear that they are slapping the king's face, and no one will be so stupid. ”

After Meng Ye's analysis, Mrs. Meng's heart also settled down a little.

Thinking about it, maybe she was thinking too much.

On the second day, the news brought by Mrs. Quan Si made her feel even more at ease, saying that after inquiry, the envoys were just the family members of the Marquis of Yongxiang, not as they guessed.

When Mrs. Meng received the news, she rushed to Dingwang's Mansion as soon as possible and informed Su Yiqing of the matter.

Her original intention was to let Su Yiqing not worry so much, and as she spoke, she also told Su Yiqing about the discussion with Meng Ye yesterday, and said with a smile as a joke: "Your father is right, that Dajing County Lord, who was kidnapped by thieves, and his innocence has long been tarnished, how can he still have the face to come back? Even if she is thick-skinned, can the Dajing royal family afford to lose this face? Thinking about those rumors, those rumors are nonsense, an enemy county lord, I heard that King Ding was forced to marry, how can he be too concerned about her, Xiaofu, you don't have to mind at all, it's okay."

Mrs. Meng's words made Su Yiqing's face more and more difficult to look at.

The speaker has no intention, the listener has a heart, Su Yiqing was a little annoyed, and pressed for a long time, and then said: "Mother, doesn't it feel that this matter is the fault of the county lord of Dajing, shouldn't she live in the world?"

Mrs. Meng is also good at observing words and emotions on weekdays, but today I don't know why, she was probably too excited, so she didn't think too much about Su Yiqing's expression, and said casually: "How important a woman's name is, they Dajing also pay more attention to this, that county lord naturally shouldn't live in the world to shame the family, otherwise Dajing's set of three subordinates and four virtues and the like can all be lost." ”

"According to what my mother said, I was engaged to someone else before, but I married again, shouldn't I live in this world?" Su Yiqing coldly threw out such a sentence.

Mrs. Meng felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly said: "Xiaofu, what's wrong with you, I didn't mean that, you know, didn't I reassure you......? You can't compare it like that. ”

"What's the difference?" Su Yiqing was a little angry, and Mrs. Meng's words hit her in the sore spot.

She has been avoiding a question, how does Lian Yufeng view her disappearance in the past few years?

It's taboo for men, and even Yufeng can't be taboo at all, but he never asks, and he accepted her so much from the beginning, and she treated it as if nothing happened at all.

But thinking about it, she and Zhao Boyang have never been able to start over before, not because Zhao Boyang's heart is not sincere enough, but because she feels that she is not worthy of her.

Zhao Boyang was ashamed of her, so he naturally didn't care, but she had no way to act as if nothing had happened and start over.

She felt that Lian Yufeng was sorry for her, and besides, she didn't do anything, so she always thought she was innocent.

But she is not innocent, only she knows, what about Lian Yufeng? Lian Yufeng just listened to her side of the story...... No, she didn't even say a word about it, and from beginning to end, she didn't explain to Lian Yufeng how she got over the years, or even how she got out of danger.

And even Yufeng didn't ask half a question.

She felt that it was because he was sincere to her, but no matter how sincere a man was, it was impossible not to mind at all, even Yufeng never asked, but sometimes occasionally revealed a trace of feelings, obviously there was still some taboo for Zhao Boyang.

This shows that even Yufeng cares, but sometimes, people still have to accept some things that they don't want to accept, or this is passive acceptance, a kind of acceptance without choice, to put it bluntly, even what Yufeng wants to marry, maybe she is not the person from beginning to end.

It's just an agreement he made with someone, or rather, it's a game, and she's just a key pawn, so he has to accept it, otherwise he will lose the whole game.

But she couldn't believe that it was all fake. (To be continued......)
