Thirteen, brutal

The princess was married, and the inn used to receive the protocol was newly decorated by the inner supervisor, and the inside and outside were shrouded in red. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Yao Xitong pushed open the window and stared at the red lantern in the courtyard, his fair face looked a little strange under the light, "Uncle He, don't tell that there about the palace change for the time being." ”

"Why is that? Now that we have seized the opportunity, why can't we let our master prepare early?"

"The Empress Dowager has a stand-in, this person's appearance, manners, and even handwriting are similar to the Empress Dowager, how do you prove that the Empress Dowager is dead?"

He Bo was stunned for a moment before he realized the meaning of Yao Xitong's words. Whether the empress dowager is dead or alive is not the key to the question, the key lies in the spring worship of the ancestors, who dares to question the truth of the empress dowager! The princes of the Quartet have been dominating for many years, and each prince has the ambition to dominate the world and replace Daxia. The Empress Dowager knew and took advantage of this, and for many years she had been provoking, interfering, mediating, and containing the affairs between the four vassal states.

The Song land was close to Dadu, with more money and few soldiers, and every word and deed was under the nose of Great Xia, and it was powerless to rebel; Chen Di bordered Northern Liao and was the first line of defense for foreign races to attack Great Xia. Chen Di has hundreds of thousands of soldiers, but the land is vast and sparsely populated, the products are barren, and the grain reserves are all supplied by Daxia; Liangdi is near the sea, and the most of the four hegemons are the most independent. In order to prevent this from happening, the emperors of the past dynasties used countless stratagems, in a word, the greatest contradiction in the Liang land came from internal struggles, and the Qi land was the smallest, bordering the Song and Chen dynasties, and there were barbarians and Wu tribes outside, making it the most difficult of the vassal states to become an independent state.

The four tyrants have coexisted peacefully for many years, and occasional conflicts have been resolved and mediated by the Empress Dowager. At this critical time, whoever stands up to question the authenticity of the Empress Dowager is likely to be annexed by other princes. Yao Xitong concealed the palace change for a certain reason, for so many years, how many nails were planted by the imperial court in the vassal states, the vassal states sent back as many fine works to the imperial court. The palace change looks very abrupt, and who can ensure that the other princes don't know? At a critical juncture, whoever makes a change will become the one who carries the black pot!

"The old slave obeyed the son's orders. ”

"Did you get anything?"

He Bo was stunned for a moment, and carefully took out the rhinoceros incense he had stolen from Xiao Bao'er from his arms.

"Just something?"

"Childe, the materials for making incense are already precious, and there is not much left of the princess, and the old slave is worried that he will be found out, and he only dares to take that little!"

Yao Xitong put on gloves and carefully pressed the incense segment into powder, subdivided it into several pinches, and tested it with substances of different properties. "Uncle He, you're late, if this is rhino incense, the entire palace will be able to get a glimpse of the heavens. ”

"It's ......"

"Homemade incense in the palace. In order to appease Uncle He, Yao Xitong said again: "Qingshanjun has been operating in the palace for so many years, and he must be faster than you, we are afraid that we will never know what rhino incense is!"

He Bo's wrinkled old face squeezed out a smile, "There is mainly a princess here, and I can't guarantee that there is still the king of Northern Liao." By the way, what kind of person is Princess Beiliao?"

Yao Xitong touched the dark green eye socket and said very disdainfully, "A barbarian." ”

He was a little unconvinced. According to the information, Xiao Baoer is the daughter of the king of Northern Liao and has the first inheritance. In order to sign a covenant of peace with Northern Liao, the Empress Dowager spent a lot of effort to persuade the King of Northern Liao to send Xiao Bao'er to Dadu, how could a person with such an identity be a simple-minded barbarian?

He asked, "Could it be that the barbarian is a false impression that she deliberately pretended?"

Yao Xitong waved his hand and said, "If she is a smart person, she should make good use of her status as a princess to manage her network in the palace, so that she can marry the Son of Heaven in the future." This kind of development made He Bo a little confused, and looked at Yao Xitong with a puzzled face, hoping that he would give an explanation. "The imperial court is in decline, and it no longer has the ability to capture Northern Liao. Northern Liao had the opportunity to attack the hinterland of the Central Plains, and the two sides had been stuck for a long time, and the Empress Dowager had to bow to Northern Liao in order to ensure that the Son of Heaven could smoothly govern herself. I guess that the imperial court pays tribute to the north every year, and only by feeding the hungry wolves can they have time to appease the tigers in their backyard. ”

"Northern Liao took the grain of Great Xia, and the Empress Dowager was naturally wary that they would one day betray the covenant and attack the Central Plains before the Son of Heaven grew up. Xiao Bao'er is a hostage sent by the King of Northern Liao, and according to the plan, it will not be until the Son of Heaven is in power, and the Empress Dowager and the King of Northern Liao will have new actions. During this period, Xiao Bao'er's marriage to the Son of Heaven was the most beneficial choice for both parties, which could not only appease the ambition of the king of Northern Liao to invade the Central Plains, but also allow the male soldiers of Northern Liao to deter the princes who were about to move. ”

"In the woman's opinion, how can the royal blood be tainted by the barbarians, and the princes of the Quartet will never let this happen. After hearing this, Yao Xitong asked rhetorically, "Do you really think that the princes of the Quartet will unite to resist Xiao Bao'er as the queen?"

He Bo sighed, thinking that in the early days, Xia Zi had divided dozens of vassal states, and now there are only four princes left, and during this period, he has experienced countless annexation wars. The four vassal states all have a deep blood feud with each other, they are jealous of each other and secretly colluded, eager to swallow each other in one bite, and they are afraid that they will be swallowed first, in this case, how can they unite to deal with the imperial court.

"Childe can see that Princess Bao'er is a barbarian based on this?"

"Am I such an arbitrary person? Generally speaking, she is not stupid, but she is not pretending to be a family and country in her heart, and she only thinks about how to marry that smart Qingshan-kun. Do we have someone to guard outside her bedroom, right?" He Bo nodded, and Yao Xitong asked again: "It can be seen that she sent a message to people and told Beiliao about today's palace change?"

"I haven't heard anything yet. ”

"I'm not wrong, if she has a little political acumen, or cares about her family and country, how can she not inform Beiliao of such a major event as the palace change?"

He Bo agreed with Yao Xitong's opinion of Xiao Bao'er, this princess of Northern Liao really doesn't regard herself as a native of Northern Liao, and her mind is so simple!

"I forgot to mention something, the magpie is a person from Aoyama-kun. ”

"Childe means ......" He Bo made a gesture to wipe his neck, "No, the Empress Dowager's personal guards are not easy to buy, I guess the magpie has a handle in Qingshanjun's hands." You have them carefully checked, and it's best if you keep them for my use. ”

"Where's the crow?"

Yao Xitong thought for a moment, "The four personal guards, the tanuki and the dog rebelled, the magpie was controlled by others, if the crow was also a spy, the Empress Dowager would be old!"

"If there is a mother, there must be a daughter, this princess who has lived in the center of power since she was a child vainly hopes to be like her mother, to be able to overthrow the Son of Heaven and become the real ruler of the Great Xia Dynasty. It's okay like this, the heavens are clear, the retribution is unpleasant, and it can be planted in the hands of her own daughter, and it is estimated that she will be blind to death. Just ......"

"What?"

Yao Xitong didn't understand why the Empress Dowager issued a decree to let Xiao Baoer marry Xuan Ze at the moment of death, this woman who was no less scheming than a man saw something he didn't notice?

"It's nothing, I want to know how much chips Qingshan Jun is willing to pay for Xiao Bao'er?"

"Childe still thinks this has something to do with Aoyama-kun?"

"Don't forget the conversation you overheard, no one can marry Xiao Bao'er without his consent. This is like what a gentle and elegant noble son would say, how arrogant!" Suddenly, Yao Xitong laughed proudly, "Tomorrow's big wedding, I will marry Xiao Bao'er, see what tricks he can play!"

Since the day he can remember, everything he has learned has been to help King Chun seek the throne of the Great Xia Dynasty. In order to achieve this goal, he has thoroughly understood all the information about the Empress Dowager, has always regarded her as the greatest enemy and obstacle, and has thought of a thousand ways to defeat her in the court. I never thought that Xuan Zeqi would use the Empress Dowager's biological daughter to complete the coup d'Γ©tat.

Thinking of the assassination in the morning, he was angry, if Xiao Bao'er hadn't appeared in time, there would be another water ghost in this world. Xuanze, a humble gentleman, really vowed not to give up if he didn't achieve his goal, but I don't know who the second batch of assassins obeyed, and even Xiao Bao'er was killed!

"Uncle He, help guard the princess, I don't want to make a mistake in tomorrow's wedding. ”

At the end of autumn, the temperature was getting lower and lower day by day, and Xiao Bao'er was wearing the short clothes of Liao people herding horses and was boxing outside the dormitory. She doesn't punch fast, and she puts a lot of effort into every punch, just looking at the stereotypical appearance of her punching, she looks a lot like a beginner. Except for the King of Northern Liao, no one knows that she has been boxing like this for ten years, and she has integrated boxing into her life since she was just able to walk steadily.

She doesn't like boxing, and she hates staying here to box. In her eyes, the holy place in the hearts of the Northern Liao people was a yurt built in the depths of the palace, in which there was a strange old man with a beard and hair and a sheep that did not grow hair. The strange old man is the ancestor of Northern Liao, the god in the hearts of the herdsmen, a taciturn but gentle person. She often asked Wu Zu all kinds of questions, why the sky was blue, and whether the snow peak was the end of the sky......

Wu Zu took her on the grassland for half a month, and they walked from the palace to the foot of the snow-capped mountain. Seeing that the clouds were connected to the snow peaks, and the white expanse could not distinguish the snow peaks from the sky, she shouted happily, "We have come to the edge of the sky, this is the end of the sky." Wu Zu didn't speak, and took her to dig a snow cave in a sheltered place, and the two stayed in the snow cave for two days, and when the sky cleared, Wu Zu stretched out his hand and pointed to the snow peak and the sky.

The sky is clear, and the white snow-capped peaks and the blue sky look very distinct. Wu Zu said, "No matter how wide the earth is, how big the sky is, you will never reach the end of the sky." After that day, no matter what she asked Wu Zu, Wu Zu gave her only one answer, "Boxing well, don't use your limited life to ponder the endless sky!"

Wuzu taught Xiao Baoer to live in the present, simplify the complicated life, do what she likes, and don't leave regrets for the future. Xiao Bao'er once asked the king of Northern Liao if she stayed in Great Xia, did the king of Northern Liao need her to do something in the palace? The king of Northern Liao gently helped her weave her hair like her mother, telling her that before she found what she wanted, she only needed to be a happy princess, she had the qualifications to be happy, and she had the capital to be happy!

Xiao Bao'er kept in mind the words of the King of Northern Liao, and became a happy princess when she arrived in Great Xia, in this court full of intrigue and calculation, she still acted arbitrarily and ignored the rules. Brutality is just part of her character, but she is portrayed as a vulgar and unreasonable barbarian by the palace people who look down on foreign races. After a long time, she is also used to solving problems with her fists, since the people of the Central Plains think that she has no brains and is a barbarian who doesn't know anything, it is better to fulfill the superiority engraved in the bones of these people.

Yao Xitong is pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, Xiao Baoer is the same, she doesn't even have to pretend, many of her true behaviors are as stupid as pigs in the eyes of "smart people".
