The news of the marriage of the princess of Qingguo soon spread, although the marriage of the saint could not be announced to the world, but everyone who should know knew it.

For example, the emperor in the Northern Qi Palace at this time.

Zhengyang Palace has always been the place where the emperor lives. In all dynasties, it was the most gorgeous place in the palace, and the place with the most people and officials came and went. However, in the 14th Northern Qi Dynasty, this practice seems to have changed. Zhengyang Palace is closed all the time, and only a few palace people can shuttle back and forth, and others are not allowed to enter without permission.

The interior of Zhengyang Palace is also very desolate. Why do you say desolate? Because there are even weeds on the ground in the courtyard that are popping out of the cracks in the stones, but the palace people who come and go don't take care of it. This is the emperor's bedroom, and the palace people must be doing this because the emperor once ordered that they were not allowed to take care of it.

The inside of the main hall of Zhengyang Palace is also dark, and the window paper on the door has turned dark yellow, so the light in the room cannot be seen. The fourteenth emperor of the Northern Qi Kingdom was lying on the recliner in the dormitory at the moment reading the secret report in his hand. Because the room was dim, even if he stood in front of the emperor, he couldn't see his face clearly, but he could feel the murderous aura that emanated from the emperor's body at this moment.

"Hmph."

The emperor looked at the secret report in his hand for a long time, and finally couldn't help but snort coldly and threw out the folded book in his hand.

"I'll just say, how can the rich and noble emperor suddenly become old and confused, and I don't know each other for seven and eight. The national letter clearly said that it was the eighth princess who asked for peace, and the princess who wanted to send it over to kiss was actually the seventh princess. It turned out that she had already found a home for her distressed little daughter, and she had to marry in a hurry. ”

There was another person standing in the dark part of the room, although he was old, but he could see a resolute look on his face.

"Uncle Flower-Faced, you say, what should I do?"

"Your Majesty, why do you have to marry Princess Qixin?"

For eleven years, Huamian has been by Beiqi's side and takes care of this child. Protecting the child.

After so many years, Hua Mian felt that he didn't understand the child who was chasing him carefully and arguing to practice martial arts with him.

The emperor didn't speak, and Hua Yan couldn't see his expression clearly, but he felt that the atmosphere was not so intense. It seems that the emperor is in deep thought. At least not that violent. Later, I heard the laughter of the emperor in the dark,

"Huh."

Flower Face doesn't like this kind of laughter, and every time I hear it, I feel furious in my heart.

"Because, because the emperor of Qingguo feels most sorry for his little daughter, he will definitely give the heaviest dowry. Aren't we in need of money right now? ”

The emperor finished speaking. He completely lay on the recliner, and this time he could see the emperor's appearance clearly.

What didn't quite match the voice was the emperor's slightly green face. The white face was angular, the lips were slightly raised, and the eyes were staring blankly at the ceiling. His hands were naturally pillowed under his head, and one foot was pulled down from the chaise longue, swaying back and forth. The whole person seems relaxed and cheerful.

Flower face still feels strange.

In the events of that year, the Northern Qi Dynasty decided that it was the prince of Yongchang, that is, the current emperor of Qingguo, who betrayed the emperor and was quickly arrested. So until now, I have a grudge and refuse to have any formal dealings with Qingguo. The messages or codes received in private are also destroyed. Secretly accumulate armed forces to make yourself strong.

Huayan believes that Northern Qi just wants to take revenge. But now Northern Qi suddenly went to the national letter and said that he wanted to marry that little princess. This made Hua Mian depressed for a long time, and he always wanted to ask Bei Qi what he was thinking in his heart. I finally asked today, but what I got was such a seemingly reasonable but uninteresting answer.

If you want more money, just ask for it, why bother so much.

Suddenly, Beiqi sat up from the recliner,

"Someone's coming."

A palace man came in outside the door, and the people who were serving around the emperor seemed to have been infected by such a dark atmosphere, and they all walked with their heads down and talked with their heads down. Out of the emperor's order. Otherwise, I never saw anything other than the ground.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"What's going on, what's the news from Qingguo?"

The palace man took out two thick folds from his sleeve, as well as a small letter.

"陛xià. This is the letter of state that has just been sent this morning, saying that preparations for the wedding have begun, and the diplomats of the two countries have also begun to contact. It's just that the one who still insists on marrying Qingguo is the seventh princess of Qingguo, Princess Qishui. Also, just now a eunuch sneakily searched for this letter from him. Same as before. It's written to you. ”

It's not once or twice that there are such letters, and the emperor has long ordered that such letters be thrown away directly.

"Bring it and show it to me."

The palace man handed the letter to the emperor, and then went out.

"Beiqi, I don't know if you're okay now. Get in touch quickly. ”

Although it was only two short sentences, it made Beiqi feel extremely disgusted and threw the letter to the ground. Fall back into the recliner and fall asleep.

Huamian looked at the letter on the ground, wondering if she should pick it up and look at it.

After the deaths of Chunfu's mother-in-law, the seven girls, and Gong Zhu one after another, Northern Qi ascended to the throne. Although the queen killed General Yanlan, Lord Yanlan was also seriously ill, and she has not recovered until now. After the Northern Qi ascended the throne, the queen quickly took over the government, but the queen was very smart and did not manage it herself, and of course did not let the Northern Qi manage it.

The queen is assigning the responsibility of the first assistant to the three of them, and the three of them contain each other, but they also manage it well. Northern Qi has always been withdrawn, and the queen is too lazy to care about him, and she can't see him two or three times a year. To outsiders, Northern Qi looks like a withdrawn emperor who doesn't do anything, but secretly, Northern Qi has been training elite soldiers with the help of Chang Gui and the deputy general Lin back then. Moreover, Beiqi also opened up the relationship, and all the twists and turns will be sent to Zhengyang Palace to show him before they come out of the office of the down payment lord to be destroyed, and if there is anything that is doubtful, he will be asked to investigate.

Chang Gui has always stayed by the queen's side, and the queen who coaxed her every day was happy, and the Northern Qi Dynasty did not provoke it, so it was peaceful.

In the eyes of outsiders, the Northern Qi Kingdom seems to be calm and calm, and its national strength is not as strong as that of Qingguo. However, in fact, the Northern Qi Kingdom grew up secretly under the operation of the Northern Qi Dynasty.

"Uncle Flower-faced, what should I do, the rich emperor of Qingguo refuses to hand over his beloved daughter."

Hua Mian didn't speak, because he didn't know what Northern Qi meant.

"How's the preparation going for the north?"

The previous sentence thought it was a casual muttering, but the next sentence became serious. This is the current Northern Qi Dynasty.

"It's all set. If you have to act, you will definitely succeed in one fell swoop. ”

Speaking of this, Hua Yan was a little excited.

"Then let everyone see our strength, so maybe he is willing to hand over his daughter?"

Hua was stunned, he didn't expect that the Northern Qi would change so quickly. (To be continued.) )
