Chapter VII. Born in the family of the emperor

Seeing Le Yi crying, the queen hurriedly asked, "Oh, why are you crying?" Isn't it uncomfortable? The queen asked Le Yi with concern. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Just when she didn't know how to reply, the emperor said to the people around her: "Take the reward I gave to Princess Leyi." “

At this time, Gonggong Wei beckoned his subordinates to come up with a plate. Le Yi glanced at the plate, three very beautiful boxes.

The emperor laughed proudly, "Open it for the princess to see, and I will prepare the dowry for you at this time." Of course, the ordinary dowry will not be less, these three pieces are carried by you, and when the time comes, see the emperor and empress of the Sui Dynasty and your husband, His Royal Highness King Jin, and dedicate them to them. You're sure to be recognized and loved by them. In addition, of course, some more ordinary dowries such as gold, silver, silk and satin must not be less. “

Le Yi glanced at it suspiciously, could these three boxes have such great magic?

Seeing Le Yi's doubts, the emperor laughed and said, "Open it for Princess Le Yi to see!" ”

Gonggong Wei trotted to the edge of the plate and opened the first box, the jade carved map of the Western Liang, which was given to Emperor Yang Jian of Sui. The second is a sandalwood rosewood Buddha bead, which was given to the current queen of the Great Tunnel. The last box, inside is a red concentric knot, this one is for Yang Guang, the king of Jin.

Speaking of which, these three are very ordinary things, not very valuable things, but these are all things that the emperor decided to give after careful consideration. It is said that Xiliang is weak, and if you want to survive, you must find a backer. And Emperor Xiaoming chose to marry Sui, which is very wise.

Looking at Le Yi's puzzled face, Emperor Xiaoming smiled slightly: "The first jade territory given to Emperor Sui, the first is to imply the sincerity of our alliance, and the second is to use jade to secretly say that Emperor Sui is a gentle gentleman." The second thing given to the queen is the good sandalwood rosewood Buddha beads, this thing is not a rare treasure, but the queen who believes in Buddhism will definitely like it. The third piece is a concentric knot given to His Royal Highness King Jin, which is the best choice to express feelings. ”

"But why didn't the emperor send something more valuable? Isn't this a little too ordinary? The queen interjected slightly.

The emperor glanced at the queen and said, "You may not know that the Sui Emperor and the empress are very fond of a simple life, and sending some rare treasures may not be better than these things." ”

Le Yi looked at the emperor silently, doing so meticulously in order to please other emperors. Is he, the emperor, too aggrieved? I feel a little sorry for this father in my heart.

The emperor looked at Le Yi's expression and knew what she was thinking. said: "Le Yi, my daughter, you only know that your father is the emperor of the Liang Dynasty, do you know the many helplessness and unavoidance of being an emperor." Your grandfather left me such a vulnerable country, I have a great responsibility, although it is hopeless to expand the territory, but at least to protect this country and you, as well as these people. ”

"Why don't you choose a rich country and a strong army to protect the people, but choose such a grievance way?"

"Because I love my people and don't want them to lose their lives for the sake of my pride. Now that our Liang country is weak, if we want to use force to confront other powerful countries, the consequences will only be to hit a stone with an egg. Do you know the famous Battle of Changping in history? During the Warring States Period, the power of Zhao State cannot be said to be weak, but in the battle against the Qin State, which was even more powerful than it, more than 400,000 soldiers were killed. I don't want this to happen to my people in my lifetime. “

Le Yi deeply felt her father's love for this country and his sense of responsibility to these people. At least a good emperor, if not a good father. Determined to help him protect all the people of Liang Guoli, including the fathers and villagers in the village he loves.

"Father is right, at present, our country's strength is not enough to meet any country, and we can only rely on the protection of Qiang Sui to develop our national strength. The development of our country takes time to develop, and it may go through more than one generation's efforts. Leyi will do my best to help you. If there is anything to do, the father can tell you at any time. ”

"Good! Okay, good...... Worthy of being my daughter! The queen said with affection. At this time, the reality that this girl is her own daughter has only gained a little, and she is so knowledgeable at a young age, and she is too similar to her father. It's also a little sad to think that the separation is about to begin.

Emperor Xiaoming originally didn't have much affection for this daughter who was discarded since childhood, but now he sees that she understands things so well and has big ambitions. I suddenly felt very sorry for this daughter, as if I had the real feeling that she was my daughter. actually had a little reluctance to marry her far away.

After the matter of marriage was almost over, Princess Le Yi greeted her parents for a while and returned to the dormitory with mixed feelings.
