Chapter 226: Zhaoyang

Once you decide to stay, your heart is settled. www.biquge.info Li Chengqi unexpectedly found that from that night on, his Yan'er was much gentler with himself. She's more like his wife, more like his queen.

In today's harem, the emperor and the Queen of the West are in love, and those who have bad intentions dare not make it bad. Even Wei Min, the Eastern Queen who hated Shen Yan, also put away all her tricks and recited the Buddha in the East Palace. In the past, Shen Yan was bored and always had trouble with Li Chengqi, so she could win or lose a fight with her, but unexpectedly, as long as Shen Yan changed her mind and settled down, she didn't even have a chance to fight.

However, between Li Chengqi and Shen Yan, it is destined to be peaceful.

In the blink of an eye, it is the wedding day of the virtuous king Li Chengmao.

In order to reflect the good and harmonious marriage between the Northern Zhou and Southern Zhao, on this day, the entire capital and the imperial palace are very lively. The royal family and courtiers all showed respect for this Nanzhao princess and gave them full courtesy. However, when King Xian walked into the court hand in hand to meet the emperor and empress, the true nature of Princess Zhaoyang was exposed.

Zhaoyang is beautiful, but there is an arrogance that is difficult to approach. said that she was arrogant, and she was even a little arrogant. Facing the emperor and empress of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, she actually regarded herself as the princess of Nanzhao, and was unwilling to kneel, and said wildly: "You Northern Zhou barbarian country, but you have experienced the rebellion of changing the surname of the owner, and you are no longer able to compete with my Dazhao, so you took the initiative to seek peace!" ”

When all the courtiers heard this, they were shocked. Li Chengqi frowned slightly, he didn't expect this princess of Nanzhao to be so uninteresting in front of the public. He thought about it, and finally smiled, and said disapprerovitically: "I heard that Princess Zhaoyang is the most beloved princess of the Northern Zhou Dynasty. The king of the Northern Zhou Dynasty is really sincere, even if it is this kind of marriage, he uses his favorite princess as a bargaining chip. ”

Hearing this, Princess Zhaoyang's eyes widened, and the people of the Northern Zhou Dynasty laughed at her spirit, and her face was even more blue and white. Suddenly, her eyes fell on Shen Yan, and she said the most sensitive topic without concealment: "I am a bargaining chip, but I don't know what the Queen of the Western Northern Zhou Dynasty is who has an affair with my Dazhao Anyang doctor and goes to Dazhao to make a personal promise?" ”

If it weren't for the fact that this was a political marriage, I was afraid that at this moment, Li Chengqi would have taken the life of this evil girl. "Brother Wang," he put away his smile and looked at Li Chengmao with a solemn expression, "Princess Xian is tired, take her down!" ”

Li Chengmao didn't say a word and glanced at Shen Yan, but only bowed respectfully.

Following Li Chengmao to exit the main hall, Zhaoyang said evil words to Li Chengmao in the sedan chair: "I heard that King Xian of the Northern Zhou Dynasty was a coward, and when I saw it today, it was true!" In the main hall, your emperor is so humiliated, you don't dare to say a word! It's that this princess is unruly, and you don't even dare to dissuade her! Hum. ”

Li Chengmao was scolded as a coward, but he didn't care about it, he only warned indifferently: "The princess is no longer a princess of Zhaoyang, and she still wants to do it herself." ”

Zhaoyang gritted his teeth and looked him up and down, and finally made a "hum" sound, muttering "There is a good skin bag empty", and turned away very dissatisfied.

On the night of the candles in the cave room, Li Chengmao did not enter her room. According to his subordinates, he went to a concubine's room who entered the palace on the same day as himself.

Zhaoyang couldn't look down on Li Chengmao, and Li Chengmao didn't look down on her, she was a little annoyed, but she didn't have a seizure. She sat on the bedstring, her heart said that it was okay like this, her thoughts returned to Nanzhao, thinking of the man she loved, and her feet swayed freely.

According to the etiquette system, a foreign princess who marries from afar deserves special treatment. After the newlywed, it is customary for the lady in the palace to invite him to the harem for tea and chat. However, as soon as this virtuous princess came, the emperor was displeased, who would dare to take the lead in getting close to her? The Eastern Empress Wei Min didn't do this with all her heart and mind, and the other concubines could only wait for Shen Yan.

Shen Yan knew that Wei Min didn't hit this head, and the person who hit the head could only be her. However, she really didn't want to recruit that thorn into the West Palace to disturb Qingjing. At this time, I don't know how many eyes in the palace are waiting to see my jokes.

"Niangniang, you don't want to see Princess Xian, why don't you let Concubine Jiao Gui Niangniang lead the other concubines in the palace to entertain her?" Mama Cui saw Shen Yan's thoughts, so she carefully came up with an idea.

"Mama is going to be laughed at when she says this," Xiyu, who heard this, said disapprovingly, "If Niangniang does this, won't people think that Niangniang is afraid of the virtuous princess?" After that, she told Shen Yan her thoughts again: "According to the slave maid, Niangniang, you just need to recruit the princess into the palace, if she wants to say anything nonsense, Niangniang, you just have to deal with it." She still thinks she is the princess of Zhaoyang in Nanzhao? Since she is married to King Xian, she is the woman of Da Zhou. Niangniang is a model of the women of the Great Zhou, she dares to be disrespectful to you......"

"Just do what Mama Cui said." Shen Yan interrupted Xiyu's words and told her to invite Jiao Huaiyu.

Xiyu was stunned and went out in response. She didn't expect that Shen Yan didn't listen to her idea of being the Tao, and Shen Yan adopted Mama Cui's half a sentence. The master who has accompanied her like a little sister since she was a child doesn't seem to reuse herself now, but reuses her grandmother who is over half a hundred years old. She felt aggrieved and angry.

Her unhappiness was on her face, and even Jiao Huaiyu could see it. On the way to the West Palace, Jiao Huaiyu asked her with a smile: "Which one is this ignorant who upset the big celebrity around the sister of Queen Xi?" ”

Xiyu frowned, only to realize that she was too forbearing. Secretly moistened her throat, and she replied respectfully: "Back to the concubine's mother, the slave maid is just a little unwell." ”

Jiao Huaiyu slurped her lips, shook her head with a smile, but did not continue to entangle, but deliberately sighed: "I really envy Sister Queen Xi, I have always been accompanied by loyal people like Aunt Xiyu and Mama Cui, even Gonggong Su, who is about to become her person." After that, she looked at Xiyu, and Aicai said: "It would be nice if there was a clever person like you around this palace." ”

"Guifei Niangniang, what do you mean by this?" Xiyu only felt that Jiao Huaiyu had something to say, and couldn't help but hesitate to ask.

"I heard in this palace that your husband's family is the strict boss of the Yongxu opera troupe, and he looks like a celestial. You're a blessing. ”

Jiao Huaiyu's words became more and more, and they became more and more insignificant, and Xiyu listened to the more and more clouds, not knowing the meaning of her words. Perhaps, Jiao Huaiyu just said it casually, and there was nothing extraneous about it? Is it thinking too much? Thinking of this, Xiyu also replied in agreement and asked no more.

When he came to the West Palace, Jiao Huaiyu received from Shen Yan the envoy who organized the sisters in the palace to receive Princess Xian, and he was really a little sarcastic in his heart. Of course, she had to say a few words of relief on her face: "Princess Naxian made disrespectful remarks in the court yesterday, and she deserves it if her sister doesn't see her." ”

Shen Yan knew Jiao Huaiyu's thoughts, and couldn't help but smile, half joking and half serious: "I didn't want to warn her with this, but I was really afraid of her." ”

"Sister is afraid of her?" Jiao Huaiyu's eyes widened in disbelief.

"Sister, just do what I tell you to do."

Shen Yan didn't say anything more, and Jiao Huaiyu had no choice but to retreat suspiciously. (To be continued.) )
