1032, Gong Xuan
The surprise of Yun Cang and Bingyan is naturally normal, even the palace members in the court feel that this matter is a bit ridiculous, even if Tiancheng Kingdom wants to win over Emperor Tianxuan this time, he can curry favor in other places, but this is a matter related to the inner court of the Tianxuan Palace, let a foreigner participate, this is too wrong.
It's like a family affair in the back house, and he deliberately invited an outsider to come and see, which is incredible.
Bingyan's eyes rolled slightly, and he whispered to Yun Cang: "Won't it be that my father wants to marry in person?" β
Tianchengguo came this time, firstly, to negotiate business with Tianxuanguo, and secondly, because of the marriage, but the object of the previous marriage, which prince is it, but there are constant battles in the court, and everyone wants to fight for this, because Zhong Mei, the daughter of King Liang of Tianchengguo, not only gets the support of Tianchengguo, a prince with a foreign surname who holds heavy troops, but also is likely to take over the power of this time for business and trade between the two countries.
Whether it is power or money, in this incident, can be contacted, and if the business between the two countries is successfully cooperated, it will be carried out at the beginning, and it is necessary to invest a lot of manpower and material resources, no matter what you do, the initial investment will be very expensive, and there must be people to take care of it, so if this matter is successful, it must be hoped that the money and power will have a certain increase in the process, and this is a big fat difference, and you will inevitably get a lot of benefits at that time.
It is precisely because of this that this marriage has always been an open secret, and no one has said it on the surface.
Several princes, now the queen and Yun Guifei have been punished, Yun Zhe and Yun Lang are facing the same problem, the two of them are not small now, if it is because of the marriage again, it will cause an imbalance of balance, unless Emperor Tianxuan has completely wanted to make someone the crown prince and wants to assist the future heir, otherwise Emperor Tianxuan will not make a decision lightly and let Zhong Mei marry whom.
The next few princes, Yun Cang was not very favored by Emperor Tianxuan, and Bingyan had already married Yun Cang, whether he wanted it or not, how low Bingyan's status was in Tiannan, but he was married, and he was still a wife, if it was because of the marriage with Tianchengguo, the princess and deputy princess would inevitably have to fight, and if it was really a fight at that time, it would not be a matter of women competing for status, but a matter of competition between the two countries.
If Tianxuan Kingdom wants Tiannan Kingdom and Tiancheng Kingdom to fight because of this, and he sits on the power of a fisherman, it will be too whimsical, no one is a fool, can this matter still be unclear? Such a result will only make both countries have opinions about Tianxuanguo, and maybe the other two countries can join forces, which is naturally impossible.
The following King Wu Yao, one is a martial artist, if King Wu becomes the object of marriage, King Wu has been fond of martial arts since he was a child, and he can be said to have grown up with the military since he was a child, so he has some prestige in the army, compared to several other princes, there is no achievement in the army, this King Wu is the most liked by the soldiers.
Of course, Yun Cang's suppression of bandits in Yunzhou City before did make him have a good reputation in Tianxuan, and his reputation in the army was also higher, but it still couldn't be compared with King Wu, if he married the daughter of King Liang of Tiancheng Kingdom at this time, then King Wu's reputation in the army would be too high, which is not what others want to see, and the possibility is not high.
Of course, there is also the reason that King Wu Yao married a concubine, if he directly marries a foreign woman, because it is a marriage between the two countries, to a side princess, Zhong Mei's high birth, it is impossible, if you agree, then this practice will chill the hearts of the court officials of Tianxuan Kingdom.
Why do their daughters, who are also not from low backgrounds, have to be small at such a time?
King Yao's background is more ordinary, so naturally he will not be a candidate for thinking, otherwise he would have no face in Chengguo that day, so after thinking about it, there is really no suitable one of the several princes of Emperor Tianxuan, if this is the case, then Emperor Tianxuan wants to reach a friendly cooperation, then it is not impossible for this marriage object to be replaced by himself.
Yun Cang also had this idea, but now it seems that it is not necessarily, and said, "Let's go and see it first." β
Bingyan nodded, I'm afraid this is also the reason why Emperor Tianxuan went with a few ministers, but now she can already foresee, she was originally a draft girl of Emperor Tianxuan, and now it has become a banquet reward, and then I am afraid it will be difficult to be lively.
The place where the Tianxuan Emperor drafted the girl was the place where the harem often held banquets, and it hadn't started today, and there were already people sitting there waiting early, because it was the draft of the imperial concubine, and the imperial concubine would naturally appear today.
The position in the middle of the top of the palace is naturally the position of the Tianxuan Emperor, the left is the imperial concubine, and the right is the queen who has just been released.
The two rows below the main hall have also set up tables and chairs early, according to the noble Cheng dΓΉ, the seats are all arranged in advance, when Yuncang Bingyan Yuntan and others came, the palace maid saw it and immediately invited them to the corresponding position, there is only one Cheng Wang Yunmin and Yunqing Yunqing, the prince of the two mansions, have also arrived, and below is Yun Tan's seat, probably knowing that Yun Cang and Yun Tan have a good relationship, and the seats of the two mansions are arranged together.
The opposite arrangement is naturally the envoys of Tiancheng Kingdom, and there are those who are more virtuous and respectful in the clan, and then there are some other princes.
Lord Hai suffered heavy losses because of the previous Yunqin incident, and handed over half of the military power, and he was very careful about being a person and doing things for a while, and he didn't come out much, but since he posted to many people today, he naturally couldn't fall behind, so that people felt that Emperor Tianxuan was still worried about the affairs of the Sea King's Mansion, so be careful.
Lord Hai is also ranked in front because of his status as an elder, and below are Yun Zhe Yunlang and other princes, who are seated on both sides, and then there are the family and the court officials.
Naturally, it is impossible to have so many people attending the banquet, but there are definitely a lot of people, at least two rows, the tables are sparse, and the two rows are two-thirds of the way apart, and there are quite a lot of people.
Bingyan watched, so many people stared, and the pressure on that group of show girls was not small, but it was precisely because of this that it was not easy to move in this year's draft, and it was estimated that it would be relatively fair.
The people of Tianchengguo came a little late, just came in and said hello to everyone, not long after they sat down, Emperor Tianxuan also came out with a group of people, everyone knelt down and saluted, Emperor Tianxuan nodded, his temperament of not being angry and arrogant, coupled with his age in the prime of life, not to mention that it would really make a woman's heart move.
Emperor Tianxuan said: "Let's start." β
The imperial concubine nodded, but she glanced at the queen, the corners of her mouth twitched, ignoring the queen's unusually ugly face and said, "The draft begins!" β
