Mu Yaotian was supposed to be closed for ten days, but because Shang Rongqiu, who was recalled, was about to arrive in the capital and wanted to bring back the letter of peace talks, on the seventh day, the emperor announced that someone came to ask him to go to the court in advance.

"Report! General Shang had arrived at the palace gate. One of the guards entered the hall and reported.

The emperor was overjoyed and immediately said, "Hurry up General Xuanshang and enter the palace!" ”

"Yes!"

Soon, Shang Rongqiu had already walked into the hall, he took off his helmet and knelt down to worship: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live." ”

"General Shang, please get up quickly." The smile on the emperor's face was about to squeeze into a flower.

"Your Majesty." Shang Rongqiu got up and stood up, rubbed his hands again, and hung his head slightly, "Qi to the emperor, in order to show sincerity, Ye Shaofan, the crown prince of Anguo, and Princess Ruohua personally came here with a letter of state, and asked the emperor to announce the edict." ”

The courtiers exclaimed, Emperor An sent the crown prince and princess to come to the peace talks, it is conceivable that Shang Rongqiu had to beat them on the front line before Emperor An would make such a decision.

"Xuan!"

Ye Shaofan and Princess Ruohua have already arrived in the palace, because the two of them are not subjects of Emperor Sheng, there is no need to bow down, Ye Shaofan just rubbed his hands and said: "Prince Ye Shaofan of Anguo has seen Emperor Sheng. ”

Princess Ruohua made a blessing, "Ruohua has seen Emperor Sheng." ”

"You don't need to be polite."

Prince Anguo presented a notebook, which was handed over to the emperor by Gonggong Chen.

"This book is a letter of peace between my father and the ministers after the court, please read it carefully by Emperor Sheng, and I am willing to reconcile with Sheng Guo forever."

"Good! That's what I mean. The emperor smiled and took the credentials. After taking a closer look, the content is probably to let Princess Ruohua marry into Shengguo, and Anguo is willing to offer four cities and various possessions as a dowry.

After closing the national letter, the emperor carefully looked at Princess Ruohua, although it is not a country and a city, but it can also be called a national beauty.

Seeing that the emperor didn't speak for a long time, Ye Shaofan spoke first: "The handover letter of the Four Kingdoms City has been brought to me, and as for the other dowries, my father and the emperor have made a big decision, so he reluctantly married Princess Ruohua to Shengguo." I don't know what Emperor Sheng wants? ”

Four cities can be obtained by a single marriage. It was indeed a good deal for Emperor Sheng, so he said: "Emperor An intends to marry Princess Ruohua to our Sheng Kingdom and offer four cities as a dowry, what do you think?" ”

"Congratulations to the Emperor. Congratulations to the Emperor! All the courtiers immediately fell to their knees and shouted. Although Prime Minister Du Cheng knelt there. said the words of congratulations to the emperor, but he was faintly worried in his heart, Emperor An intended to marry Princess Ruohua to Shengguo. How do you have to choose a prince, but among the princes, whoever marries Princess Anguo is equivalent to having such a backer as Anguo, the emperor will never give this opportunity to other princes, and will definitely give it to His Royal Highness the Prince, if it is allowed to the prince, what can his Du Guanyue do? He has always cultivated her as a queen, and even the queen intends to make Du Guanyue the crown princess, but this halfway suddenly made a trip to bite the gold, which made Prime Minister Du Cheng's heart go up and down.

"Don't say these flattering words, come on, lead Princess Ruohua and Prince Anguo to enter the side hall to rest first." Discussing a woman's marriage in the court, people will definitely be a little embarrassed, and the emperor also took this into account and issued this order. Moreover, the deliberations of the court are likely to be related to state secrets, so Ye Shaofan was also arranged to leave.

After Princess Ruohua and Prince Ye Shaofan of Anguo gave a salute, they withdrew from the Chengqian Palace.

After the people left, the emperor said: "Emperor An is so relieved to marry the princess to Shengguo, I will choose a good husband for the princess, everyone Aiqing, who do you think is suitable to marry Princess Ruohua?" ”

"Naturally, the crown prince is the most suitable."

"The second prince is also very suitable."

"The ...... of the Four Princes"

The ministers talked a lot, but no one mentioned the third prince Ling Mo, after all, the emperor had just given him a marriage, and the other princes had not yet agreed to marry.

After everyone's opinions were finished, Ling Ran stood up and said, "Father, the son thinks that the most suitable person is you, Father!" ”

Ministers, look at me, I look at you, I didn't expect His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to say such a thing.

Prime Minister Du Cheng finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, the prince didn't want to marry Princess Ruohua, so he also stood up and said: "The minister thinks that what His Royal Highness the Prince said is very true, this Anguo Xu marries the princess, and we Shengguo can't give Anguo a lot of face, at least choose a prince, if you marry the prince, this Ruohua princess is the crown princess, the future queen, the queen is the princess of another country, it is really inappropriate, if you marry the actual prince, this ......" Prime Minister Du Cheng was very subtle and did not say what he thought in his heart, He continued: "If Princess Ruohua marries, it is affecting the two countries of Sheng'an, and the opinions of the minister and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince coincide, thinking that the emperor is the most suitable person." ”

The emperor can naturally listen to Prime Minister Du Cheng's opinion, this princess of Anguo naturally cannot marry His Royal Highness the Crown Prince as the crown princess, but if she marries other princes, with the force behind Anguo, she has the ability to confront the prince, and the most important one may shake the country.

"Erchen also thinks that marrying his father is the best decision." Ling Mo also stood up and said that which prince Princess Ruohua married to was undoubtedly one more person who had a better chance of competing for the throne.

"General Mu, what do you think?" After all, it was Prime Minister Du's opinion, and the emperor still felt that he would ask Mu Yaotian again to see if there would be a better opinion.

"The minister also thinks that marrying the emperor is the most reasonable thing."

Prime Minister Du didn't expect that in this matter, Mu Yaotian would be able to mean the same as himself.

When the emperor heard this, he said, "Do you have any other opinions?" ”

Prime Minister Du Cheng's analysis is reasonable, even Mu Yaotian said that marrying the emperor is the most reasonable, and many people in the court are Prime Minister Du Cheng's protégés, of course, they will not have other opinions, so they said in unison: "Congratulations to the emperor for having a beautiful woman." ”

Ling Shu has worked hard in the past few years, and he feels that there are a lot of people in the harem, so he canceled the three-year draft, and he has worked hard to bring Shengguo to a more prosperous stage, and there are no newcomers in the harem for some days, which is also a happy event to suddenly send a beauty.

"Since all the ministers think that marrying me is the most reasonable, then let's order it, as for the title, it can't be given too low, just give the concubine position, and the title will be 'An', and the Internal Affairs Office will immediately arrange the canonization ceremony, which will be held in three days."

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

After this matter was discussed, Shang Rongqiu was rewarded for his merits, and the discussion was over, and after the next dynasty, the emperor left Prime Minister Du Cheng, Mu Yaotian and Shang Rongqiu and Lord Liu, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, to meet the prince of Anguo together.

It was busy until the afternoon, and Mu Yao arrived at Mu Mansion.

"Father, why are you only coming back now?" Mu Huanyan saw Mu Yaotian enter the mansion in the steward's room, and immediately greeted him, because he was announced by the emperor to return to the court in advance, Mu Huanyan thought that there must be something going on in the court, so he thought about asking one or two from Mu Yaotian's mouth.

"There are too many things, I'm afraid I'm going to be busy again in the next two days."

"Father should pay attention to his body, I will tell the kitchen to prepare some ginseng soup, what happened in this palace, you have to be busy?"

"General Shang has earned enough face now, and he was promoted when he came back from the Sheng'an border, if it is peaceful today, I have been idle in the house for half a year, think about it, and I still miss the days in the barracks."

"It seems that my father also wants to go into battle to kill the enemy, so isn't General Shang fighting on the Sheng'an border? How do you say that you will come back? Mu Huanyan asked curiously.

"Capture three cities in a row, the emperor called him back to Beijing Province, he came back this time and brought Anguo's peace talks, unexpectedly, Anguo actually wants to marry what Ruohua princess to Sheng Guo, today the emperor has decided to seal Ruohua princess as an concubine, three days later canonization ceremony. The emperor is in a good mood now, and he has promoted and rewarded General Shang. There was obviously a sour feeling in these words, and Mu Huanyan had already smelled it.

So, she smiled and said: "Why should my father envy that General Shang, think about it, he captured three cities in a row, and the emperor didn't let him stay at the Sheng'an border to continue guarding, but he summoned him back, not because he was worried about his merits and the master......"

"Huan Yan, be careful when you speak." Mu Yaotian interrupted her words and looked left and right, but after Mu Huanyan's reminder, Mu Yaotian's original unhappiness gradually dissipated. Only then did I remember that when the prince had just returned from the Sheng'an border, he had mentioned in the court that General Shang had a very good reputation on the border, and the people were very high, and it seemed that the emperor was also a little worried, so he summoned him back.

"Got it, father, I just said something I shouldn't have said, and I won't dare to say it again."

"The emperor's canonization of Concubine An this time is related to the friendly relations between the two countries, and I feel that the banquet in the palace will be attended by ministers and clan wives, and you can also bring your children to participate together, and then you will enter the palace with Jin Ge and your grandmother to see for a long time."

"I know, I'm going to inform my grandmother."

Mu Yaotian nodded and walked towards his study.

Mu Huanyan remembered the previous life, probably at this time, Ling Shu was indeed a concubine, but when the Chen family only brought Mu Jinge into the palace to participate in the banquet, Mu Huanyan had no chance to enter the palace, and it was not until she married Ling Mo later that she knew that this Concubine An was Princess Ruohua of Anguo. Although Anguo submitted his credentials for peace talks, Shang Rongqiu was not recalled and has been stuck at the Sheng'an border.

After this Ruohua princess was crowned Concubine An, because she was young and beautiful, Ling Shu was very fond of her, and she spent most of the time in Concubine An for a month. And Mu Huanyan's mother-in-law, the imperial concubine, was also jealous because of this, and she also sprinkled her anger on her.

However, in this life, she doesn't have to suffer the anger of the imperial concubine anymore, the imperial concubine, we are going to meet again so soon, Mu Huanyan s face showed an indescribable smile. (To be continued......)
