Chapter 62: Asking for Marriage

"Oops. Hearing Yun Ruochen say this, Chu Xiaoxiao was a little embarrassed, "Actually, I dare to do this today, most likely because Yun Lingtian really doesn't have any brains, think about it, what adult with a normal brain can do such a thing?"

Not to mention that Yun Lingtian didn't succeed today, even if she really let him succeed with a brain pump today, the first thing Chu Xiaoxiao did was to kill Yun Lingtian.

Looking at Chu Xiaoxiao's expression, Yun Ruochen knew what she was thinking, so he said with a light smile: "The prince is indeed not qualified, but there is no other suitable prince besides the prince." ”

"What is this?" Chu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but pouted and said, "Wouldn't it be better to be indiscriminate than to lack?" I think those princes sent by other countries to celebrate their birthdays are much more decent than Yun Lingtian if they take out one at random. ”

Not to mention Mo Yao, the prince of Nanzhao who was like a smiling tiger, let's just say that Helian Feng's rank was far higher than Yun Lingtian.

There is nothing to criticize about a big man who wants to fight for power and profit, but a person like Yun Lingtian, who is bent on only pounces on women and wants to gain power through women, is really a little disgusting.

In this case, what is the difference between Yun Lingtian and the male prostitutes that Chu Xiaoxiao had heard of in his previous life? It's just that Yun Lingtian is for power and status, and the latter is for money, which is more straightforward and explicit.

Chu Xiaoxiao really didn't understand, why such a person could still be the prince?

"The Seven Princes of Nanzhao and the Three Princes of Dirong are not simple characters. Yun Ruochen said with a faint smile: "If not, why do you think these two emperors chose these two emperors as envoys to come to congratulate Your Majesty on his birthday?"

Hearing this, Chu Xiaoxiao thought about it carefully, and then raised her eyebrows in surprise and said, "Is it for temptation?"

Yun Ruochen said: "It's too early to say this, let's look at today's palace banquet." ”

"Palace banquet?"

"The position of these two countries should be seen at the palace banquet. Yun Ruochen said softly: "Di Rong is not a friend or foe, Helian Feng has a dislike for you, Xiaoxiao, be careful." ”

Hearing Yun Ruochen's words, Chu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but say suspiciously: "Hey, how do you know my sin Helian Feng?" She remembered that Yun Ruochen shouldn't know that the post house in Di Rong Kingdom was burned by her.

Yun Ruochen was stunned for a moment, then his face regained calm, and he said to Chu Xiaoxiao with a light smile: "Xiaoxiao, you have defeated Princess Helan and Prince Helian one after another, and now no one in the capital knows?"

"In this way, I thought you knew ......" Halfway through speaking, Chu Xiaoxiao paused the words in his mouth violently, and said to Yun Ruochen: "Haha, it's nothing, are you going to the palace banquet tonight?"

Yun Ruochen looked at the sky outside, thought for a moment and said, "I will probably go." ”

"Okay, then it's decided, I'll wait for you. ”

The palace banquet in the evening began quickly, but this time His Royal Highness the Crown Prince did not appear, in view of the miserable situation of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince that the ministers had seen before and did not want to touch His Majesty the Emperor's mold, so it was surprising that there was no Imperial Doctor to impeach Yun Lingtian.

Chu Xiaoxiao already knew that His Majesty the Emperor was afraid that Yun Lingtian's matter should be related to her, so she didn't brush her sense of existence in front of His Majesty the Emperor, and directly lowered her head to eat.

In fact, on this occasion, the elite in Beijing will not eat too much for the sake of courtesy. But Chu Xiaoxiao is different, in her eyes, there are only beauties and delicacies in the world that cannot be disappointed, not to mention that the imperial food in the palace is not something that can be eaten at any time.

Now that the food is available, the only thing that makes Chu Xiaoxiao a little regretful is that Yun Ruochen didn't come, looking at the empty seat in the lower left position of His Majesty the Emperor, it is obvious that Yun Ruochen didn't come to the banquet because of his temporary intention, right?

Was she scared?

Halfway through the banquet, Helian Feng, who had been staring at Chu Xiaoxiao all the time, suddenly showed a smile full of malice to Chu Xiaoxiao, and then got up and said loudly: "Your Majesty Izumo Country, Helian Feng, the third prince of this king Di Rong Kingdom, wants to ask to marry the young lady of the Chu family of your country to show the harmony between the two countries. ”

As soon as the words fell, Chu Xiaoxiao's eyes instantly narrowed dangerously.

Hearing Helian Feng's words, the audience was also in an uproar, and the Dijon Kingdom and the Izumo Kingdom could be said to be a feud.

Dijon is located in the bitter cold land of the north, when the grassland is frozen in winter, it goes to the border pass of Izumo to plunder the people, and later because of the war with General Fengyao, General Fengyao burned nearly 200,000 soldiers and horses.

So for a long time, there has been no tradition of peace between Izumo and Dijon countries, because I don't know when the fight will start, and even if I send the princess to go, it will be in vain when the war starts.

Unexpectedly, the third prince of Di Rong Kingdom actually asked to marry Chu Xiaoxiao as his wife.

Seeing that everyone didn't speak, Helian Feng didn't care, but said with a smile: "This king came this time to make a good alliance with Izumo Province Qin and Jin, as long as Your Majesty is willing to marry Miss Chu to this king, this king promises that there will be no more war between you and me within ten years." ”

As soon as the words fell, even His Majesty the Emperor in the high position couldn't help but look at Chu Xiaoxiao.

Although Dijon Province is not richer than Izumo Province, it is indeed a real strong army, and the combat power of the cavalry of Izumo Province is much higher than that of Izumo Province's army. The war in the north has been dragging down the military of Izumo Province for many years, and if it can really not be fought for ten years, then ......

Chu Xiaoxiao looked at Emperor Chu's eyes, and her heart suddenly sank. Before Emperor Chu could speak, Chu Xiaoxiao directly said to Helian Feng: "Prince Helian, you are just a defeated general under me, what qualifications do you have to marry me?"

Helian Feng was choked by Chu Xiaoxiao's words, obviously he didn't expect Chu Xiaoxiao to speak so directly, and he was speechless for a while.

Originally, Princess Helan was reluctant to let Helian Feng marry Chu Xiaoxiao, after all, she and Helian Feng were half-brothers and sisters, and the relationship was not considered close, if Helian Feng was allowed to marry such a powerful concubine as Chu Xiaoxiao, it was inevitable that something would happen in the future.

But at this time, hearing Chu Xiaoxiao's words, Princess Helan was a little displeased, "Chu Xiaoxiao, my imperial brother wants to marry you, can it be that the prince of my Dirong Kingdom is not worthy of you as a courtier?"

"Your Majesty. Chu Xiaoxiao directly knelt on the top of the hall with her clothes raised, and said in a cold but resolute voice: "Although the country of Dirong and my country are now in harmony, but my mother Fengyao died at the hands of the Dirong people, and the hatred of killing my mother is not shared, if Prince Helian insists on marrying Chu Xiaoxiao...... That Chu Xiaoxiao is willing to sacrifice her life for the country!"
