Chapter 217: Farewell
Three days later, Zhao Fei packed up and set off. He first came to the City of Flames to say goodbye to his grandfather.
"Grandpa Wang, I'll go to Yanshan and come back as soon as possible, and I'll ask you to take care of the affairs at home. Zhao Fei said goodbye to the old man Qingfeng first.
"It's okay, no one dares to come to Flame City to make trouble now, you can rest assured. The queen has a strange temper, don't provoke her, understand?"
"Don't worry, grandpa. I'm here to propose, not to find trouble, and I'm not going to make her angry. Zhao Fei said with a smile.
Then he came to the Xu Mansion, and recently Lin Shuang lived in the Xu family's mansion.
"Third uncle, I have to go out tomorrow, and I won't be able to send you when you leave. When I arrived in Heshuo City, I wrote as soon as possible. Say hello to my father-in-law on my behalf, and I hope you are all safe there. ”
"Zhao Fei, don't worry. The Lin family has been handed over to you to take care of, so you don't have to worry about us. Lin Shuang said with a smile.
"Zhao Fei, take care of Xuejiao and the children. I have to help Lin Huai, I left Yu Niang behind, and let her protect Xue Jiao and them at all times. "Mother-in-law Jinhua is a little sad.
"Sister, don't worry. With me, no one can touch a hair of them. The Jade Lady hurriedly promised.
"Hmm. I'm sure I'm relieved to have you, and everything is in your hands. Granny Jinhua hurriedly said.
In the evening, Xu Baichuan prepared a banquet, and everyone had a farewell meal together.
"Third uncle, I wish you a smooth journey in advance. Take care of yourself when you arrive at Heshuo City. Zhao Fei picked up his wine glasses and toasted three glasses of wine each.
"You have to take care of yourself in the future, you are the whole of the Zhao family, and you are also the hope of the Blue Wolf Empire. If the war does not go well, you are the hope to turn the tide. Lin Shuang didn't need to praise Zhao Fei, he was telling the truth.
"Third uncle, don't worry. For the sake of the Blue Wolf Empire, I will definitely spare no effort. They all drank a lot of wine that night. I don't know how long it will take to meet this time, and everyone has sadness in their hearts.
Lin Shuang not only walked with Mother-in-law Jinhua this time, but Lin Guozhong and Lin Guoquan's brothers also walked together. In addition, the Lin family also had three fifth-order masters of the God Refining Realm who also went over together, and Lin Wushu had already followed Lin Huai when he first went.
The next morning, Zhao Fei and Lu Qianmeng left Flame City and rushed to Yanshan. If they fly with all their might, they can fly in twenty days, but that would be too tiring for people to bear. So they choose to ride horses, although they will use it for more than ten days, but they can maintain their physical strength and deal with emergencies.
"Father, I have to go back too. I'm going to go into the mountains and bring some people out, because there is a great need for people outside. "Zhao Ming didn't stay in Flame City for a long time, he was going to the Immortal Tree, and it was time for Zhao Wei and the others to go out of the mountain.
"Okay, when you come out of the mountains, Zhao Fei should also come back. Zhao Zhenduo agreed.
After Yang Jian left Flame City, he quickly rushed to the imperial capital. He traveled day and night, and came to the imperial capital in less than twenty days, although it was late at night, he still entered the palace overnight to meet the emperor.
The emperor was shouted in his sleep, he knew that Yang Jian must have something important to do when he returned late at night, so he didn't lose his temper.
"Emperor, why did you enter the palace so late, is there anything urgent?"
"Father, I shouldn't disturb your rest, but there are many things I must report to you as soon as possible. Yang Jian hurriedly said.
"What's the matter, then let's say it. ”
"Now Zhao Fei should be on the way to Emperor Yanshan's harem, and he went over to propose marriage for Zhao Ming and Zhao Yang. They wanted to marry the two palace maids of the emperor, and the emperor and queen had already agreed. But the emperor proposed that Zhao Fei personally propose, I don't know what the reason is. After Yang Jian finished speaking, the emperor was silent.
"Granny Jinhua and Lin Shuang should also leave Flame City now, and a group of seven or eight of them went to Heshuo City to help King Zhennan in the past. ”
"Oh. It's a good thing that they used to be, Lin Huai really has no one available, and there are still too few masters over there. The Emperor nodded and said.
"Father, there is something I want to ask the emperor for permission. Yang Jian knelt down.
"What's the matter, as long as my father can do it, he will definitely satisfy you. ”
"Erchen wants to go to Zhao Chun, the daughter of Zhao Zhenduo, the Marquis of Qinghuang, as his wife. After Yang Jian said this, he looked at his father nervously.
"Does the Zhao family approve of you marrying her?" the emperor asked.
"Zhao Fei has agreed, and everyone in the Zhao family agrees and supports it. ”
"Okay, as long as the Zhao family agrees, I will agree. You tell me Zhao Chun's basic situation, and I'll help you refer to it. The Emperor said happily.
"Zhao Chun is twenty years old this year, and he is at the beginning of the God Refining Realm......"
Yang Jian truthfully told Zhao Chun's basic situation, and the emperor listened very carefully. After Yang Jian finished speaking, he was also very satisfied.
"It's not early, you go back and rest. Go see your mother tomorrow, and then leave the imperial capital quickly, and don't come back if it's okay. I agreed to the marriage, and when the time is right, I will arrange for someone to go to the Zhao family to propose marriage, and you don't care about this. ”
After Yang Jian retreated, the emperor fell into deep thought. He didn't understand why the Empress Yanshan insisted on Zhao Fei proposing marriage, and what did the Empress have in mind? He couldn't figure it out.
The next morning, the emperor left the king of Pingxi.
"Aiqing, I have something to trouble you to run. ”
"Your Majesty, if you have something to order, it is the responsibility of the courtiers. King Pingxi was a little flattered.
"That's right, the Eighth Emperor has fallen in love with Zhao Chun of the Zhao family and wants to marry her, I want you to go to Flame City and propose marriage on my behalf. ”
"Your Majesty, this is a great event, I don't know if the Zhao family knows about this matter in advance?" King Pingxi said in his mouth, but he didn't think so in his heart. If the Zhao family didn't know in advance, or the Zhao family didn't agree, this errand would not be a good errand.
"Zhao Fei has agreed, and the Zhao family has all agreed. In order to show caution, I still want you to go for a run. ”
"Then Weichen congratulates Your Majesty first, Weichen is very willing to go on a trip. King Pingxi was immediately relieved, and he was very happy to go to Flame City.
"Okay, then it's settled, and in ten days you will take the dowry to Flame City. ”
In order to marry Zhao Chun of the Zhao family, the emperor actually arranged for a prince to go in person, which is enough to show his attitude and the importance he attaches to this marriage.
Yang Jian hadn't left yet, he also knew the news, he was very excited, he didn't expect his father to be so cautious. He remembered Zhao Fei's words, and he was even more excited.
Could it be that the father would really make himself the prince?
He didn't stay in the imperial capital for too long, and then left the imperial capital quickly, he didn't dare to disobey his father's orders.
"What kind of reputation is the emperor, how can he let the eighth prince marry the Zhao family?" After Wen Taishi learned the news, he was very puzzled.
"Now that the battle for the crown prince has entered a white heat, the emperor has sent the eighth prince away, which means that Yang Jian has been eliminated. Since Yang Jian wanted to marry the Zhao family, the emperor would definitely meet his request. Let King Pingxi propose marriage, which can be regarded as a comfort and compensation for Yang Jian. The man explained.
"Your analysis is reasonable, yesterday the third prince Yang Zhen came to show goodwill, and I have promised to support him. Master Wen said with a smile.
"You'd better be cautious, it's important to stand in line, but don't stand in the wrong line. Yang Zhen is ruthless and unscrupulous. He has the emperor's spicy side, but he doesn't have the emperor's benevolent side, so you still have to be careful when dealing with him. The man reminded.
"Hmm. I understand these truths, and there is about to be a war, but the emperor has not arranged important errands for me, and I am afraid of being marginalized, and I am a little unwilling. Master Wen said anxiously.
"Who to choose as the crown prince is up to the emperor, not for these courtiers to decide, so I advise you not to stand in line for the time being. The man continued to remind Master Wen.
"I understand what you mean, I will promise him verbally first, and I will take the emperor's attitude as the specific. Wen Taishi also felt that he was a little abrupt.
"The Zhao family is getting stronger and stronger, it's best to avoid them and not clash with them. Lin Huai is too important now, the emperor is giving Lin Huai face. The man continued.
"I have already listed the Zhao family as a dangerous person, and I will not touch their moldy heads again, and I can afford to hide if I can't afford to provoke them. Master Wen was depressed.
"It's not a big setback, and there are a lot of opportunities in the future. The man hurriedly comforted Master Wen.
"Only you can comfort me, let's see how it develops below, I'm unwilling. "Master Wen is in a very bad mood.
"Alas, I didn't expect the Zhao family to be so favored by the emperor, and they are the lord of the city, the marquis of Qinghuang, and the protector of the country, and now Zhao Chun is married to the eighth prince, and the ancestral tomb of the Zhao family is smoking. After Yan Xue learned the news, she sighed.
"Madam, if it wasn't because of the war, how could his Zhao family get so many honors? It's not all about Lin Huai's face, who let Zhao Fei find a good father-in-law. Liang Haichuan hurriedly comforted Yan Xue.
"I always feel that something is wrong, even if Lin Huai is hot at this time, then the emperor can reward the Lin family, why should he reward the Zhao family?" Yan Xue keenly grasped the crux of the problem.
"Yes, you have a point. Liang Haichuan also had doubts.
"But then again, Zhao Fei is the core of the Zhao family, why hasn't Zhao Fei been rewarded?" Yan Xue asked again.
"Alas, I can't figure it out, I don't think about it anymore, my head hurts when I think about it. Liang Haichuan wanted to divert the topic.
"Are you going to see the eldest prince today?" asked Yan Xue.
"Yes, the Great Prince gave many promises. The implication is to let his father support him as the crown prince, and the promise is very rich. Liang Haichuan said proudly.
"Now the situation is still unclear, for the time being, we must be calm and calm, and do not blindly take sides. Once you stand in the wrong line, the consequences are unimaginable, and you must choose carefully. Yan Xue reminded Liang Haichuan in time.
It was because of this that the father avoided them. I came forward to promise that once the wind changes, my father can push it all away, and we can advance or retreat. Liang Haichuan's face showed a look of pride.
"Hmm. It's best that way, something big will happen in the near future, and everything has to be done with caution. "Yan Xue already feels that the imperial capital is getting stricter and stricter, and the emperor has begun to rectify the security of the imperial capital.
"Everyone knows that there is going to be a war, and strict control is inevitable, and it has nothing to do with us. ”
"You don't have any brains at what you said, if there is a war, the Liang family will do nothing, and the throne of the Liang family will be over. Yan Xue's tone became stern.
"I'm sorry, ma'am. I may be oversimplifying what I think, but tomorrow I will discuss it with my father and come up with some countermeasures. Liang Haichuan hurriedly apologized to Yan Xue, he was now being pinched by Yan Xue, and he was absolutely obedient to Yan Xue.
