Chapter 286: A dilemma

Princess Haining originally planned to go to the Hou Mansion to find Gong Xiru to question in person, but she didn't expect to be closed when she went, and she was unwilling, so she let the ghost slave quietly sneak into the Hou Mansion to find out.

But when the ghost slave came out of the Hou Mansion, it was like seeing something that shouldn't be seen, and his face was very strange, no matter how Princess Haining asked, he couldn't say why, just stumbling, and didn't seem to know where to speak.

Princess Haining scolded angrily: "Useless things, what do you see and say directly, what are you doing?" ”

The ghost slave was panicked, trying to think about how to speak, and seeing that Princess Haining's face was getting deeper and darker, he quickly lowered his voice and said, "My subordinates saw that Hou Ye and--and---and men were sleeping in the same bed. ”

"What did you say?" Princess Haining took a breath, took a step back, and said in amazement, "Are you sure you're right?" Is it someone else? Or - just sleeping in a bed and doing nothing? But she asked a little weakly, what kind of situation would make two men sleep in the same bed.

The ghost slave shook his head in a deep voice: "The subordinates can see clearly, the Hou Ye and the man are naked, although they are separated by a layer of bed tents, but the voice - the subordinates will not hear it wrong." Hou Ye, he really likes men. ”

"Boom-" Like five thunderbolts, Princess Haining stumbled under her feet, and was stunned for a long moment before she slowly came back to her senses, but she didn't want to stay for a moment, and stumbled and ran away.

Seeing that Princess Haining ran away without a trace as if she was being chased by a flood beast behind her, the little guy guarding the door smiled and closed her mouth, and hurriedly trotted in to report.

"Master Hou. The man is gone. The little guy pushed the door and said respectfully.

When Gong Xiru heard this, he suddenly turned over and got up. With a blank face, he quickly got dressed, and then lifted the bed tent and walked out. He coldly commanded the people in the house: "Today's affairs, if any of you dare to leak the slightest rumor, I will make him speechless for the rest of his life." ”

The subordinates turned pale with fright one by one, and hurriedly promised not to talk too much.

Gong Sheng came out after him, still buttoning his clothes, and muttered: "Hou Ye's figure is really good, he deserves to be a good body that has practiced martial arts all year round, he is strong, since Hou Ye is sensible." I have never let the little one serve you to wash, and before you know it, Master Hou has grown up. ”

Gong Xiru's face sank, and he turned his head and stared at him coldly.

Gong Sheng showed a very innocent expression: "This is the idea that Hou Ye and the eldest lady came up with, and it is not a small one to come up with such a method of killing a thousand enemies and losing eight hundred, if Hou Ye is reluctant, you can not call the small one."

The little one still wants to marry a daughter-in-law, if this word spreads, the little one will become the male slave favored by the Hou Ye. That little one's life is ruined. ”

The other people in the room couldn't help but laugh when they heard this, Gong Sheng shrugged his shoulders, buttoned the last button, and then smiled respectfully: "Master Hou, do you want to eat something." I don't know when Princess Haining will arrive, but we have been tossing in bed all morning, and Master Hou should be hungry. ”

Gong Xi Rufeng also went out. By the way, the phrase "don't eat" falls.

"Where is Master Hou? Away from you for a moment, the little one is already thinking about you. Master Hou, you need to come back early. Gong Sheng shouted behind him.

Gong Xiru's steps became faster and faster, and he left the courtyard in a few steps. All the way to the gate, like some evil ghost behind him.

However, it was said that after Princess Haining left the Hou Mansion in a daze, she originally planned to go back to the palace directly, but met Gong Yunrui on the way.

Today, Gong Yunrui is dressed in a dark green golden silk auspicious cloud brocade robe, wearing a crown of jade, and a shallow smile, if you put aside the identity of his second son, it is not much worse than Gong Xiru.

Gong Yunrui was quite surprised when she met Princess Haining, but when she saw that the latter's face was not good, she stepped forward with concern and asked, "When will the princess leave the palace?" Why is your face so bad? Isn't Mo sick? Although this is about to rejuvenate, the weather is still cold, and the princess needs to wear more clothes. ”

Princess Haining looked at him for a moment, but suddenly asked, "Will you bear me?" ”

"Huh?" Gong Yunrui looked at her puzzled, "What does the princess mean by this?" ”

"You don't care what you mean, just answer, will you fail me?" Princess Haining asked again urgently.

Xu is seriousness on her face, Gong Yunrui couldn't help but get upright, and said seriously word by word: "And no matter what the princess means by this, I only have one sentence, once it is determined by my Gong Yunrui, I will not live up to it, but-"

"Okay, I'll go back to the palace first." Princess Haining interrupted him with a wave of her hand, and then walked in the direction of the palace alone.

Gong Yunrui hurriedly caught up and said, "The princess didn't bring a carriage when she left the palace?" I'll send you back to the palace. ”

"No, you go and do your own." Princess Haining refused weakly, and then ignored Gong Yunrui and left directly.

returned to the palace and returned to her residence, Princess Haining closed the door directly, and then she was alone and didn't know what she was thinking.

The ghost slave had been waiting in the dark, and seeing that she was really confused, she couldn't help but stand up and persuade, "Princess, that Gong Xiru is indeed not a normal man, if you marry him, this life will be really ruined, while there is still time, why not go and ask the emperor." ”

Princess Haining's face turned pale, "Do you still need to say this?" I'll judge for myself. ”

The ghost slave looked pale, said yes, and silently hid back in the shadows.

After staying in the house for more than half an hour, seeing that the sun was gradually turning west, Princess Haining finally came out of the silence, changed into clean and solemn clothes, and went to meet Emperor Qinglong with her personal maid.

Emperor Qinglong had just discussed with the general in the morning about when to send troops, and in the afternoon he discussed with several ministers close to him where to attack Ziguo.

The matter of the Three Kingdoms Division's attack on Ning has not yet been leaked, and this matter must not be known to Princess Haining, otherwise all plans will be in vain.

Emperor Qinglong was preparing to send Fuquan to leave.

The eunuch who knew that the messenger came in with a letter and said: "Your Majesty, this is the letter of the lord of Ning presented by Princess Haining, saying that the emperor must take a look." ”

The letter of Emperor Ning? Emperor Qinglong was puzzled. I was a little worried in my heart, but the matter of the teacher was revealed. Ning Guo asked for help from himself?

With this in mind, he opened the national credentials, just after reading them. Breathe a sigh of relief.

"That's all for today, a few Aiqing will go back first, and we'll continue to discuss tomorrow."

Several ministers knew that the emperor was going to deal with other matters, so they saluted and retired. After everyone left, Emperor Qinglong ordered someone to bring Princess Haining up.

Taking advantage of the fact that Princess Haining had not yet entered the palace, Emperor Qinglong said to Fuquan: "The lord of Ning actually wrote a letter to ask me to allow him a condition, but this condition has to be said by Princess Haining, what is the idea of this old fox?" ”

Fuquan was puzzled: "Why is Ning Guo so arrogant? Is he asking the emperor? ”

Emperor Qinglong waved his hand. handed him the letter of state, "It's not, look at it, Ning Guo is willing to take three cities in exchange for a condition, do you say I listen or not?" I'm afraid that this condition is not simple. ”

Fuquan smiled slightly, bowed his head and said: "Since it is such a sincere request, of course you have to listen to it, as for whether it is simple or not, you have to listen to it before you know." ”

Emperor Qinglong said secretly that what he said was also right. waited for Princess Haining to enter the palace.

In fact, this letter of state was asked for by Princess Haining from the lord of Ning State a long time ago, and she was to prevent Emperor Qinglong from marrying herself to Gong Xiru, so that Emperor Ning specially prepared this letter of state. Three cities in exchange for a request for yourself.

Emperor Ning Guo disagreed at first, but was later persuaded by Princess Haining for several reasons, so he wrote the letter of state. It's just that the letter of state is the letter of state. But the effect is completely different. Who would have thought that now Princess Haining would use these three cities in exchange for not marrying Gong Xiru.

"Haining see the emperor, long live the emperor-" Princess Haining entered the palace. and salute respectfully.

"Alright, alright, I said. These rites can be abolished with you. Why did you come to my place? Emperor Qinglong asked with a charitable face. After all, for the sake of the three cities, he also had to talk with a smile.

Princess Haining lifted her skirt and knelt down, kowtowed and said: "Your Majesty, Ning Guo presents three cities, and I implore the emperor to agree to Haining's only one request." ”

Emperor Qinglong raised the national letter: "Are you talking about the three cities written in this national letter?" What kind of big thing is it that actually asked Emperor Ning to take out three cities in exchange? I am not this covetous person, and if the conditions you say are really harsh, then I will have no choice but to do without these three cities. ”

Princess Haining showed a three-point shy and seven-point sad expression on her face, and choked up: "The emperor is too worried, Haining is not proposing any harsh conditions. Haining married Northern Qin, my father really couldn't rest assured, my father has always loved Haining, from childhood to adulthood, as long as Haining wants, my father will give it to me at all costs.

Now Haining is going to get married, which is a major event in a lifetime, and his father attaches more importance to it than Haining. From last year to now, Haining has come to the Northern Qin Palace for more than half a year, in the past six months, I have met a lot of people, please forgive the emperor, Haining has secretly promised others in private, so in recent days is to implore the emperor to fulfill. ”

Emperor Qinglong was slightly stunned, and asked Fuquan in a low voice, "What does she mean?" Am I inβ€”misunderstood? ”

Fuquan shook his head and said in a lower voice: "The emperor didn't understand wrongly, it seems that the old slave thinks that Princess Haining wants to ask you to marry her." ”

"Three cities in exchange - is there such a good thing in the world?" Emperor Qinglong was a little unsure.

"The emperor should listen to her." Fuquan glanced at Princess Haining.

"Yes, yes, yes-" Emperor Qinglong turned his head and asked Princess Haining again, "Who is he that you so-called Fang Xin secretly promised?" ”

Princess Haining showed a little embarrassment on her face, and was silent for a moment before she said word by word: "Haining loves the palace family, the second young master Gong Yunrui, and asks the emperor to fulfill it." ”

"Gong-Gong Yunrui? Not Gong Xiru? Emperor Qinglong blurted out in shock.

Fuquan affirmed in Emperor Qinglong's ear: "Your Majesty, what you are talking about is indeed the second young master of the palace family. ”

Princess Haining looked at Emperor Qinglong with tears in her eyes, and pleaded again: "Please let the emperor become Haining, the second young master of the palace has unparalleled appearance and intelligence, and Haining will not marry him in this life." He kowtowed again.

Seeing that Princess Haining said so solemnly, Emperor Qinglong was in a dilemma, between the three cities and Gong Xiru, who to choose? (To be continued.) )
