Chapter 1: Li Dai Taozhuang

Yan Wei walked out of the inner room with Nana, stood in front of her father with low eyebrows, folded her jade white slender hands in front of her, and softly blessed her father, and said in a whisper: "Huan'er has seen my father." ”

Yan Tam didn't make a sound, and looked at her daughter critically with a pair of beautiful eyes.

The daughter's small face was not covered with makeup, only a small peony flower on the white jade-like forehead. However, the lips are not fat and vermilion, and the face is powderless and bright. The usual comb of the hanging hair has been pulled into a woman's high bun, and the black bun is combed with a jade version of the white peony with a blue hairpin; On each of the two temples of the cicada's wings are three flower hairpins with sapphire and gold silk leaves. Looking rich and glamorous.

The father didn't speak, but Wei Wan didn't get up, maintaining a blessed posture, dignified and supple. The pair of charming phoenix eyes slipped towards the door under the curly and thick long eyelashes, and then, a look of disappointment spread into the bright eyes.

Yan Tam ordered: "Take two steps and take a look." ”

Wei Wan thinks that this tone is like the requirement of a farmer when he buys livestock to check the quality...... Then it came to me that it was actually pretty much the same.

She was disgusted, but with a smile on her face, she followed her father's words and took a few steps.

The pomegranate red breasted skirt was tied very low, and the tender white and full breasts loomed; The waist is tied by a wide white belt embroidered with lilies, which shows the slender waist; Covered with a mopping robe embroidered with light orange and white plums. In the action room, the skirt is light, and the tall brocade shoes inlaid with beads and jade only reveal a small tip under the skirt, and with the delicate steps, it looms; The bright ochre-colored soft Luo shawl gently flutters, fluttering like a fairy.

When the real posture is like a soft willow, the behavior is graceful.

Like a businessman who was satisfied with his goods, Yan Tam nodded triumphantly. Suddenly, he said happily: "How many times have I told you that I want to call my father!" ”

As he spoke, he leveled the jade belt of the Nine Dragons playing in the sea around his waist with one hand, and held the borrowed sword with the other, and his delicate facial features put on a majestic expression.

For today's day of sending his daughter to the side of his son, he deliberately wore the imperial clothes of the past.

"Yes...... Father. The words "Father" were as light as a sigh.

Yan Tam looked at the gold ornaments on her daughter's head for a while, then reached out and rubbed the shawl again, and sighed: "It's really a good thing." Dongxia's Tai * son is generous. You wear this outfit to look like a princess. - When you get to Tai*zi, you must also remember that you are the princess of the Dayan Empire. And I, your father, is the emperor of the Great Yan Empire. ”

Wei Wan listened attentively to the movement outside the door, and said perfunctorily: "Yes." ”

But I secretly thought in my heart, how could there be a princess who wanted to be a concubine? Isn't the father slapping himself in the face? On the surface, he calmly asked: "Father, I don't know how the son of Dongxia will hand over the 100,000 elite soldiers after his daughter passes?" ”

Yan Tam frowned, and his gaze subconsciously swept to the blue lacquer case in the ground.

There are silk, gold and silver, jade and other things on the table, which are all gifts brought by the prince of the Eastern Xia Empire to the chief manager of Yutian, saying that it is to add makeup to the newcomer. A lot of gifts were given, but the matter of borrowing soldiers was never mentioned......

But looking at these rich gifts, Yan Tam suddenly became confident. These gifts are all from the upper class, which shows the importance of the prince. In this way, even if the loan of 100,000 elite soldiers is a verbal promise from the prince, nothing will go wrong. Thinking about it like this, his blood immediately boiled.

Yan Tam glared at her daughter majestically. "National affairs, you can't be a woman! Look, I want to take those 100,000 elite soldiers back to Beiyan and chop the usurper into pulp! Rewrite the history of Beiyan from now on! ”

The corners of Wei Wanyan's red mouth curled, and a pair of charming phoenix eyes narrowed playfully slightly.

Yan Tam was puzzled: "What are you laughing at?" Are my words ridiculous? ”

"The daughter thinks of her father...... My father will be happy to change the history of Beiyan. Wei Wan said respectfully.

Father probably doesn't remember, he has already rewritten the history of Beiyan. As the last generation of emperors of the Great Hui Dynasty of the Northern Yan Empire, he only sat on the throne for three days, and the dragon chair was ousted before it was hot. Twenty years have passed, and who among the people of Northern Yan still cares about the weak and sluggish Great Hui Dynasty?

Yan Tam didn't know what her daughter was thinking, so she snorted with satisfaction. "I've raised you for sixteen years, and today it finally came in handy. You just have to remember to wait for the prince and make him happy. In this way, he may lend me more than 100,000 elite soldiers - spread your brows, you dare to show the emperor of the Great Yan Kingdom! Yan Tam clenched his fists angrily and glared at his daughter viciously.

Weiwan stared at him fearlessly. She really wished that her father's fist would come down, but she knew that his father's fist would not come down.

It's not that he feels sorry for his daughter, it's that he lacks the ability to kill and punish, just like he was protected by his retainers and went into exile with his wife and children, and after his wife died of illness, he took his son and daughter to wander around the world, but never thought of restoring the empire.

It wasn't until he was taken in by the prince of the Eastern Xia Empire five years ago, and I don't know how this prince bewitched him, and actually gave him the idea of recovering the country.

It's just that after so many years of exile, the exiles are more miserable than the emperor's dreams, right?

As soon as Wan thought of this, she felt pity and couldn't bear to break her father's dream, so she lowered her eyes.

Yan ramming is more angry. She was his daughter, and she was supposed to worship him and honor him. Don't say that he is a generation of emperors, even if he is just a father, he should say everything in front of her, why should she despise and pity him!

"A woman follows her father at home and marries her husband, why don't you remember!" Remembering that she actually ran away from home not long ago, causing him a lot of trouble and fright, Yan Tam's heart became more and more disgusted. "Today, when you get married, you will become a person who is too much, life and death, honor and disgrace, you can do it yourself. I want to be busy with the great cause of restoring the country, but I can't control you so much. ”

I thought she was numb, but after listening to her father's words, Weiwan was still distressed, she lowered her long eyelashes to cover the tears in her eyes, and whispered: "Yes." The daughter respects her father's order. ”

Get married? Tonight, Tai * Zi will have a big banquet in the other garden, and she will be presented to Tai * Zi at the banquet, just like a dish at the banquet.

It's not that his father doesn't know, but he prefers to delude himself into believing that she is married in a glamorous manner rather than acknowledging the reality that she is about to become someone else's lowly plaything. Then his heart will feel better.

Yan Tam snorted with a little satisfaction, and just wanted to show the dignity of the emperor and his father to train his daughter again, when there was a light knock on the door.

Yan Tam hurriedly collected his facial expressions, straightened his back as majestically as possible, and then said, "Come in." ”

As soon as the door opened, a tall, thin young man with sword eyebrows, straight nose and lips, wearing a blue robe with a lack of hips, walked in with two people.

The tall and thin young man was Yan Yu, the son of Yan Tham.

Among the other two, the person who is in his forties, with a fat face and a smiling face, wearing a cyan embroidered white pheasant robe, and a black jasper-inlaid head, is none other than Xue Qing, the chief administrator of the Taizi Mansion.

As soon as the chief manager entered the door, he arched a pair of fat white hands from afar and said loudly: "Your Majesty, Xue Qing greets Your Majesty." ”

Although he was fat and tall, his steps were unexpectedly brisk, and with each step, the fat swayed in circles under the silky green robe. The jeweled rings with ten fingers glittered in the light, and the black gauze on his head, the straps on his round belly, and the bearskin boots on his feet were all inlaid with jewels and gems, and with his every move, they shone brightly in the light.

"Hmm." Yan Tam snorted from his nose, and out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at the chief manager of Taizi Mansion. The old dragon robe on his body, which had been torn, was lined with the grand costume's luxurious decoration, and it was immediately gray like a rag that had been used and had not been washed.

As soon as he saw Yan Tam's expression, Xue Qing knew that Yan Tam was not satisfied. Xue Qing is not afraid, but he is just a waste emperor under the fence, it is polite to call him Your Majesty, if he takes it seriously, he will be a fool. Xue Qing deliberately ignored Yan Tam, and turned his eyes to look at Wei Huan. With just one glance, Xue Qing was stunned.

It was not the first time Xue Qing had seen Wei Huan. In the past six months, a few months ago, when Wei Wan was sick, when Xue Qing asked a doctor for Wei Wan to ask for her pulse, she had seen Wei Wan a few times through the curtain, and at that time she already felt that Wei Wan was beautiful and moving.

At this time, I saw that the clouds were towering, and the fog temples were low; The face is like a delicate flower, and the beautiful eyes are longing; The waist is like a willow, and the demeanor is thousands; It's really tempting and moving. I don't know how much more beautiful I am than in my illness, and I was stupid for a while.

Yan Tam saw Xue Qing's stunned stupid appearance, his face was full of strange goods, and he glanced at the young man behind Xue Qing who was also staring at Wei Wan with blazing eyes, and then looked at the young man's royal blue round-necked arrow suit, with a black wide leather belt around his waist, and a horizontal knife hanging on his belt, which was the costume of the guards of the Taizi Mansion, he couldn't help but be furious, and roared:

"Little guard, Ann dares to be rude!"

Xue Qing was taken aback, and came back from Weihuan's amazing beauty, and immediately introduced with a smile: "Your Majesty is angry, he is Bai Yan, the first swordsman of Taizi Mansion." Bai Zhuangshi, haven't you seen Your Majesty yet? ”

Bai Yan hurriedly gave a salute. "In Xia Baiyan, I have seen Your Majesty."

He was tall and burly, but his face was clear and beautiful, he did not wear the fashionable hat on his head, and his thick black silk-like hair was tied into a horsehair and hung down at the back of his head.

Yan Tam couldn't help but sigh secretly, what a beautiful man. For a while, he forgot to let Bai Yan get up.

Bai Yan maintained a saluting posture, his expression became more and more respectful, and he said loudly: "The princess is as beautiful as a fairy, I have never seen such a stunning beauty, ordinary people are attracted by heaven and man, it is purely unintentional, there is rudeness, and I hope to forgive." After speaking, he really lowered his eyebrows and lowered his head, and never looked at Weihuan again.

Yan Tam coughed lightly and said, "Excuse me." ”

Seeing that his father did it so easily, Yan Yu snorted coldly and shouted, "The madman is bold! How dare such a frivolous minion let him be guarded by my sister's side! Sir, I ask that this guard be banished from the princess and that she not be seen by her side. ”

Yan Yu was originally weak and looked more like a Confucian student, but this anger and elegance added heroism and fortitude, and he was more like a general on the battlefield, which made people feel a little afraid.

Xue Qing felt that the Yan father and son were really making a big fuss, but when they saw that Wei Wan frowned slightly, she was lightly angry, and she had a touching beauty, her mind was dizzy, and she didn't know what was wrong, so she heard herself say: "Bai Yan, step down." I don't want to see you until I get home. ”

Bai Yan bowed silently and strode out of the room.

As soon as Xue Qing turned his face, he became full of smiles, and said, "Your Majesty, what else do you have to order?" The auspicious time has arrived, the princess should board the car, miss the auspicious time, I am afraid that the prince will ......"

Yan Tam asked majestically: "Xue Qing, are you sure that Tai*zi will like her?" ”

"Look at this face that is more delicate than a peony, this snow-white skin, this slender willow waist, and plump breasts...... The princess has a peerless appearance, and the women of the whole Tai * Zifu are not as good as a single hair of the princess! She also has a noble bloodline and a distinguished family...... The princess will definitely pamper the princess like a rare treasure. Xue Qing's expression was respectful, and his surprised expression flashed in his small eyes.

It's really better to be famous than to meet, this lady is even more beautiful and moving than rumored, I can't imagine that people can look so beautiful. Offering this beauty, Tai * Zi must remember him a great achievement, thinking that wealth and glory are waving to him frequently not far away, Xue Qing's smile is even more flattering.

"I don't care if he treasures or not, I only need him 100,000 elite soldiers. As long as he can fulfill his promise, even if he treats her like an advocate, I am willing. Yan Tam stared at Xue Qing's fat face, his thin hands were nervously stirring, and his eyes flashed with a feverish look. When will the prince put those 100,000 elite soldiers into my hands? ”

"Father!" Yan Yu shouted, looking at Wei Wan unbearably, her expression full of distress and sadness.

When his father said such unbearable words, he thought that Weiwan would be sad and sad, but Weiwan stood calmly and delicately, as if she had not heard his father's words.

Yan Yu remembered the grief of Wei Wan when she first heard that her father was going to give her to the princess as a concubine...... Now, presumably she is no longer sad because of her father.

"Father, the auspicious time has come, it's time for my sister to board the bus." Yan Yu lowered his eyes, looked at the gray patterns on the old carpet under his feet, and whispered.

"Okay, let her get in the car." Yan Tam clenched the hilt of the sword at his waist, and his trembling fingers turned pale from exertion. He was a middle-aged man of forty years old, thin and beautiful, but unfortunately the fanatical and neurotic look on his face ruined this beauty, making him look obscene and impetuous. "The glory of the new dynasty of the Northern Yan Empire will begin the moment she boards the car, and thousands of people in the old country are waiting for me. The people will praise me, the history books will remember my exploits, and my great name will be remembered through the ages! ”

The brother and sister quietly glanced at each other, and then lowered their eyes to look at the old carpet beneath their feet, which was so badly worn that it was no longer clear. No one wants to remind their father that he has never led soldiers at all, let alone understands any military books and strategies, if it weren't for Yan Yu's advice behind his back, he wouldn't even be able to manage a few house slaves well, so how could he lead troops to the battle?
