Chapter 358: Multi-layered overtures
Jiang Ninghou is not the kind of simple general, not only is he very strategic, but he also has a lot of virtue in figuring out the emperor's thoughts, and it is because of this that he cares so much about the seemingly casual words of the emperor just now.
He also knew that one of the main reasons why the emperor personally invited Han Jiangxue to a banquet, this woman had saved the eldest princess's pair of children on the way to Xishu. But if it is only for this reason, even if the emperor is grateful to Han Jiangxue, he will not make such a large welcome and reception.
Therefore, the cautious Jiang Ninghou quickly realized another reason.
It was only in an instant that Jiang Ninghou came back to his senses and reacted the fastest.
"Your Majesty, Weichen just now because of some misunderstandings, so he impulsively ran here directly to find trouble with Miss Han, but what Miss Han said just now made Weichen feel like an initiation. Yes, Weichen will come in a hurry, and go in a hurry! If you are disrespectful, please forgive the emperor! ”
Jiang Ninghou took the initiative to admit his mistake to the emperor as soon as possible, and his expression was very calm, not showing the slightest embarrassment, but an indescribable atmosphere and demeanor.
"Since it was a misunderstanding, and it has been resolved, what else can I blame?" Emperor Xishu smiled, waved his hand towards Jiang Ninghou and said: "Sit down, your person, I can't be clearer, as for today's distinguished guest, Miss Han is also a rare woman with a frank atmosphere, the so-called don't fight and don't know each other, so I can figure things out in front of the gong." On the contrary, it is excellent! ”
The emperor set the tone, and the others naturally followed suit, and Jiang Ninghou naturally resolved all the embarrassment. He sat in his seat generously, and was really just a person who came to the welcoming palace banquet with everyone else.
After calming down this little turmoil episode, the emperor naturally paid the most attention to Han Jiangxue, and an expected and reasonable speech quickly kicked off.
Faced with the emperor's personal words of gratitude, Han Jiangxue naturally reacted immediately, got up and saluted alone, saying that he only helped out at that time because he felt that he was destined for the two children. And she didn't do much, just some handy work, such a grand thank you from the Xishu royal family. On the contrary, it made her feel ashamed.
What's more, along the way, she also formed a deep friendship between her two children, in her heart. has long regarded Xiaotian and Xiaoniuniu as his younger brother and sister. So. Being kind to her two children is what she should do, and it is also something that makes her feel extremely happy. What's more, these two children are also very good to her, and this kind of relationship is more important than anything else.
Regarding Han Jiangxue's remarks, Emperor Xishu was obviously very happy, he and the queen beside him glanced at each other slightly, and the satisfaction and relief in the eyes of the two of them could not be faked at all.
"Miss Han, this palace heard that you have a marriage contract with King Dongming Mo. I don't know when the marriage is scheduled? After talking about Xiaotian and Niuniu, the queen naturally changed the topic. I don't know if it was unintentional or intentional, and soon mentioned Han Jiangxue's personal affairs.
is also a woman, and it seems very appropriate for the queen to ask about such a thing, and her attitude like a family member shows her concern for Han Jiangxue.
"Back to the queen's mother, Jiang Xue and King Mo were originally scheduled to hold a wedding before the year, but it happened to coincide with the death of my Dongming Emperor, so I had to postpone it for a year, and I could not hold the wedding again until Dongming's state funeral was completed."
Han Jiangxue didn't speculate much about the queen's meaning, but just answered on a case-by-case basis. In fact, these things are not secrets, and they are extremely important matters, presumably Queen Xishu should also be clear.
Therefore, the queen will ask like this, naturally it will not be really unclear.
Sure enough, after hearing Han Jiangxue's words, the queen smiled again and said: "I see, then after you and King Mo reconfirm the wedding date, you have to notify in advance, and when that day comes, this palace, Xiaotian, and Niuniu can also prepare a congratulatory gift for you in advance to congratulate!" ”
"Thank you Niangniang, when the new wedding date is confirmed, Jiang Xue will definitely send someone to deliver the wedding date immediately!" Han Jiangxue was naturally not polite, the queen's words were undoubtedly an expression of attitude, a recognition and support for her divorce from Mo.
Therefore, this wedding gift from the hands of Queen Xishu, Han Jiangxue must be happy to accept it.
"When I was young, I had a relationship with my predecessor, King Mo, and although it was only once, I left a deep impression and became friends! It's a pity that the predecessor King Mo died young, otherwise, maybe I and him would have had more deep friendships! ”
Emperor Xishu soon spoke up again, as if he was reminiscing, and his tone carried an indescribable pity: "Fortunately, I heard that your fiancé, who is now the new King of Mo, is better than blue, so my friends can be regarded as reassuring." ”
"Miss Han, when you return to Dongming, remember to bring a word to your fiancé for me." Emperor Xishu looked at Han Jiangxue and said very sincerely: "Let's just say, I am looking forward to meeting and talking with the son of my old friend one day, which can be regarded as making up for the regret that I will never have the opportunity to meet his father again!" ”
Hearing this, Han Jiangxue's eyes couldn't help but light up, and the whole person became more agile.
Of course, Emperor Xishu's words can only be understood literally, and it is precisely because of this that Han Jiangxue will have an indescribable sense of pride, and feel extremely proud and proud of the man she is going to marry.
Originally, she thought that today's high-level treatment was all because she saved Xiaotian and Niuniu, so it would be like this, but now it seems that saving Xiaotian and Niuniu should only be one of the reasons, and another very important factor is related to Moli.
Although she didn't know why Emperor Xishu looked at Mo Parting so much, and didn't even care about taking the initiative to put down the emperor's shelf, and took the initiative to have a good relationship so kindly, but no matter what, it was a good thing.
Mo Li's father and the Xishu Emperor used to have a relationship, of course, that little bit of friendship can't really have such a big driving force, and it is also just an excuse for the Xishu Emperor to open the topic, but these are not important, the important thing is the Xishu Emperor's extremely positive and active attitude!
"Thank you Emperor, after Jiang Xue returns to Dongming, she will definitely bring the emperor's love to Moli, I believe that Moli will also be grateful for your love!" She was very happy in her heart, but her face was calm and generous, but the joy and happiness from the heart should be revealed.
However, between the words, the distance between the two sides seemed to have narrowed a lot again all of a sudden, and many people present secretly speculated, and one by one they were even more curious about Dongming's new Mo Wang Moli, who became famous very late, but was a blockbuster.
"Sister Han, Niuniu and her brother also want to meet Sister Han's future father-in-law!" Xiao Niuniu pulled Han Jiangxue's clothes and smiled extremely sweetly: "When Sister Han gets married, Niuniu and her brother will also go to see what the person who married Sister Han looks like, and whether he is worthy of our Sister Han!" ”
Hearing Xiao Niuniu's words, Xiao Tian also nodded solemnly on the side, his eyes were full of seriousness, while the emperor and empress and others couldn't help laughing, and many people in the royal family also laughed kindly.
Han Jiangxue was moved by the words and deeds of the two children who were full of childlike innocence but attached great importance to them, and was about to speak out, but was preempted by Emperor Xishu.
"Okay, since you two little guys want to check for your sister Han like this, then when the time comes, the emperor's grandfather will let your little uncle send you to see it!"
Everyone didn't expect that the emperor would be so happy to make a decision without really thinking about the two children, and Han Jiangxue was the same.
However, of course, the emperor's words will not be false, in this way, it can be seen even more that the Xishu Emperor's doting on the two children is also the recognition and attention to the relationship with Mo Li.
"Grandfather to the Emperor!" Seeing this, Xiaotian and Niuniu naturally got up sensibly and hurriedly got up to salute and thank you.
And in the main hall, because of the laughter of the two lovely children, it became more and more harmonious and enthusiastic.
After a round of wonderful singing and dancing, the prince, who had never officially spoken to Han Jiangxue, finally spoke out.
The three most important members of the royal family seemed to discuss the agreement, one after another, and said the part of the words they were responsible for one after another, without the slightest conflict, and the tacit understanding was not good.
And what the prince said immediately aroused the interest of everyone present, especially Han Jiangxue and Jiang Ninghou, who had never spoken out again.
"Miss Han, the main reason why this prince heard that you came to my Xishu this time is to complete a gambling contract with Jiang Ninghou for your master."
The prince smiled and said: "Everyone knows that your master Mr. Chuan's attainments in the piano art are the best in the world, and you are his closed disciple, although the apprenticeship time is not too long, but it must have something unique, otherwise it would not be possible to be accepted by Mr. Chuan as a closed disciple." Therefore, this prince has an uninvited feeling, I don't know that on the day of your gambling competition, this prince hopes to be able to see it with his own eyes? ”
"Of course you can, it is Jiang Xue's glory for the prince to be able to attend in person, Jiang Xue can't ask for it!" Han Jiangxue was even more happy, she had thought about some requests before, but she never expected that the prince would take the initiative to give her such a big favor. (To be continued......)
