Inside the Great Zhou Palace

On the bright yellow palace, the emperor leaned on the dragon chair, yawning lazily, looking like he hadn't woken up. Holding his head with his right hand, he said without a look in his eyes half-closed: "Everyone Xingjia has something to do, and he will retire if he has nothing to do." ”

Emperor Zhou Rui's whole body leaned on the dragon chair, he was tired, he played too rampant in the harem last night, and he almost couldn't get up today.

It's good to be an emperor, the only bad thing is to go to court every day.

It's okay, so why do you wake up early?

Just as he was about to say retreat, a minister walked out.

"Tell the emperor, King Zhao of Shang ordered someone to ask for help, Princess Zhao Wang Zhao suffered from smallpox, and I hope that our country can send a doctor to treat it."

I thought I could go back and get a good night's sleep, but all of a sudden my extravagant hope was broken, and Emperor Zhou Ruidi was in a bad mood.

At this time, another minister walked out, bent down and said: "Last time, King Zhao disregarded the face of our country and attacked the lotus pond without authorization, and then he ignored the written document of cooperation between the two countries and secretly infiltrated the Great Zhou, and now he even wants us to send someone over to help heal?" Is this bullying our Great Zhou Kingdom? ”

This is an opposing voice.

Another minister ran out, obviously hostile to the minister just now, he shook his head and said, "Although King Zhao has his fault, why should my country read the books of sages and sages and have the same knowledge as them?" Besides, Princess Zhao is the daughter of the emperor, for the sake of diplomatic relations between the two countries, how can we ignore it. ”

"Oh? Could it be that Lord Lan thinks that we should ignore the face of our Great Zhou Kingdom for the sake of a woman? "The dissenting minister was aggressive.

At this time, a young official walked out, he glanced at the official who disagreed, snorted, very disdainful, he knew very well that the official would be so opposed, it was useless to see that the emperor's face was not good, in order to pat the sycophants, what to say about the face of the Great Zhou Kingdom.

"Tell the emperor and send someone to heal Princess Zhao, it is for the face of my Great Zhou Kingdom, although Princess Zhao is married to King Zhao, she is always a member of our Great Zhou Kingdom, if we don't even care about our own people, how will the people below look at us. The Shang people will laugh at us so much, and the Xia people will still look up to us in the future? Shi Da kept saying that for the sake of the face of the Great Zhou Kingdom, your thinking is too narrow, although you have this heart, but this kind of behavior will only lower the Great Zhou Kingdom and pour sewage on us. ”

"You" Master Shi didn't expect a small young official to dare to refute him, and he was so angry that he couldn't speak for a while.

At this time, the emperor spoke, "Emperor, what do you think?" ”

Emperor Zhou Rui looked at Emperor Qin, who was standing aside and had not spoken, and the named Emperor Qin came out, neither humble nor arrogant: "As a father, of course I want the emperor to save my woman, and as a minister of the Great Zhou State, I want to tell Lord Zhou that Princess Zhao marries King Zhao, who is the person of King Zhao, that is, a native of Shang, and she is no longer a native of the Great Zhou Kingdom." ”

The words of this righteous annihilation of relatives were loud, and the surroundings were quiet.

Zhou Ziqing didn't expect Emperor Qin to disregard the relationship between father and daughter so much, but think about it, if he had a little father-daughter relationship that day, then Qin Siyu would not have to marry into the Shang Kingdom, and he would not have to suffer that kind of suffering.

Thinking of the person who held his head high that day and said that she bent her waist today, and the person who bent her waist tomorrow will not be her, Zhou Ziqing Yongyun will not forget jì, the firmness and fearlessness in Qin Siyu's eyes.

The ending is basically decided, Zhou Ziqing can only glance at the man who stayed at the front, but has not spoken, he looked at him with pleading eyes, if the man is willing to speak, then Qin Siyu will be saved.

After a moment's wait, the man didn't say anything.

"Then since everyone says so, then ......"

Before Emperor Zhou Rui's words could be finished, he was interrupted by a clear voice

"Tell my father that my son thinks we should send a doctor. In the past, the Great Zhou State and the Shang State have always only talked about friendly relations, but today King Zhao begged us, and they showed weakness, that is, we were one level higher than them. ”

It was the fourth prince Zhou Junyao who spoke, and what he said just hit the weakness of Emperor Zhou Rui, and Emperor Zhou Rui liked this feeling of being high and being begged for the most.

Sure enough, after hearing Zhou Junyao's words, Emperor Zhou Rui began to change.

Zhou Junyao is not the emperor's favorite son, his mother is not high, and he has not been particularly valued, but he is friendly with the prince, and the prince is very supportive of his words, and the prince also ran out at this time.

"Father, for the sake of my great country, I can't listen to the kindness of those women."

The prince's words were directed at Emperor Qin, saying that he disregarded the love of father and daughter, and was ruthless and unrighteous.

"Besides, I think Emperor Qin will say this, it's not all for the face of the Great Zhou Kingdom." The prince sarcastically.

At this time, Emperor Zhou Rui asked, "Where did the prince say this?" ”

"Tell my father, King Zhao also sent someone to pass the word, Princess Zhao is hanging on her life, she needs a medicine lead, and that medicine lead is the dowry prepared by Princess Zhao's mother for her, but she married to the Shang Kingdom, and the dowry was basically prepared by the Ministry of Rites, and the dowry prepared by Princess Zhao's mother for her was swallowed by the emperor's stepwife, this kind of action is simply insulting the reputation of our Great Zhou Kingdom, and the face is said here to be for the face of the Great Zhou Kingdom, if it is really for the face of the Great Zhou Kingdom, she should spit out all the dowry prepared by Princess Zhao's mother for her."

If these words came from someone else, they would have been sprayed to death by the people of Emperor Qin's party, but the person who said this was the prince, and this is another matter, the prince is the future emperor, and they dare not offend.

Emperor Qin blushed, and was nakedly criticized by the prince like this, a little embarrassed.

"The prince can't say this, my original wife is not a wealthy family, and besides, the palace is incorruptible, how much dowry can I prepare for her? The dog girl has always hated the stepwife, in order not to make her sad, I have never straightened the stepwife, I didn't expect her to hate the stepwife so much. Emperor Qin sighed.

He poured all the sewage on Qin Siyu, anyway, she was not there, and Qin Siyu's mother was indeed not a big family in the eyes of others, and others would believe what he said.

The entire Great Zhou people know how good Emperor Qin is to his wife's original match, and they don't dislike the original match without any identity, if they don't marry Emperor Qin, the people of Great Zhou don't know that there is such a person. Besides, after her death, Emperor Qin never married another, which is another infatuated behavior, and has been praised by many literati and scholars.

As soon as Emperor Qin's words came out, no one commented on his words, after all, it was a well-known thing at this time.

The prince snorted and said, "Then let's see how much dowry the second lady will have when she gets married, you must know that when the second lady enters the emperor's mansion, there is no dowry." ”
