Chapter 336: Ugly Family
A sumptuous feast, but many people were stunned and couldn't eat it.
Some people are full of bitterness, such as Princess Ubon Ratchasim; Some people have already taken a sip of vinegar, and their whole body is bubbling with a sour smell, such as Lord Yan and many noble girls who have always prided themselves on being pure and high; Some people were nervous, such as the fathers and brothers of the noble girls who had followed U Bun Lak to laugh at Shu Yao and asked to perform in the Imperial Garden.
However, no one dares to eat and drink with an open stomach at this kind of banquet, especially women, for fear of eating and drinking too much and needing to leave the banquet and go to the thatched house.
During the entire banquet, except for the eldest prince of Wudabang and the marquis of Yongping, Shujie, who left for a while, no one got up.
At the end of the feast, the eldest prince of Ubanda walked to the center of the main hall with a piece of paper and gave the emperor a big salute: "Your Majesty the Emperor, U Bun Ratat is young and ignorant, and I also ask His Majesty the Emperor to forgive U Bun Rat's frivolity in the face of his father, and Thonburi is willing to double the amount of ivory, fragrant rice, and wind-ground copper that he pays every year." In addition, our northwest border city will be leased free of charge to the southwest army of Prince Yong of the Great Zhou for fifty years. This is a supplementary contract signed by Ubonda on behalf of his father, and I sincerely ask His Majesty the Emperor to accept it.
U Moonrat was shocked, she did not understand military affairs, but she had heard the queen mother talk to the people sent by the Burmese king about some of the border cities, and that Nara was very important to the Burmese war. The Burmese king has been trying to get the queen mother to win Radu as her dowry for marrying the third prince of Burma.
However, although she is not very smart, she is not stupid either, and she knows that Wu Bangda did this to let the Great Zhou Emperor let her go. She didn't dare to speak, because she was really afraid that the emperor would insist on staying as a dancer.
U Bun Ratat wanted his younger brother to inherit the throne, but also for his own future dependence. But now I see this big brother who she doesn't want to see on weekdays for her. At the risk of being punished by his father, he signed that supplementary contract with Da Zhou. She suddenly felt that her mother and sibling brother were bent on marrying her into Myanmar in exchange for their benefits, was it really good for her and for her sake? In fact, she was not very willing to leave the Thonburi dynasty.
Dafuzi's father-in-law took the contract signed by Ubangda and presented it to the emperor, who looked at it carefully and smiled happily: "The eldest prince is polite, how can I worry about a little girl?" These tributes paid by Thonburi are not only intentions, but I will not shirk them. The Great Zhou would also provide Thonburi with some silk, tea, porcelain, and other items accordingly. "He mainly wanted to get more wind-ground copper for musket shells.
Ubangda said respectfully: "Your Majesty Emperor Xie Dazhou." ”
The emperor continued to laugh and said: "As for the city of Radu, after Prince Yong sent soldiers and the people of the Great Zhou who reclaimed wasteland or did business, they would pay tribute like other cities in Thonburi, and the soldiers of the Great Zhou would never disturb the people of Thonburi who remained in the city of Radu, but would protect them. Please tell your father about this, although rest assured. ”
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live", Ubangda's heart fell into his stomach, Shujie promised him just now, and the emperor personally promised it at this time. He has an account with his father, and his father will certainly approve of it.
It is said that the tribute has been doubled. In fact, the extra part is equivalent to exchanging specialties with Da Zhou. As for Naladu City, Prince Yong raised it during the peace talks, and the father and the lord were not worried that the emperor and Prince Yong would not believe in their words, but Ladu City was the birthplace of the queen's maiden family, and their tax interests were involved, and they resolutely opposed it on this ground.
Ubangda's own two maternal uncles were actually very much in favor of making friends with the Great Zhou and allowing the Great Zhou soldiers to enter the city of Ladu. Because they could all see the reason why the queen and her maiden family were bent on currying favor with Burma. The Burmese royal family was greedy and despicable, and under the trade-off, Ubangda's foreign family supported his alliance with the Great Zhou.
Ubonda is benevolent, but not stupid, and naturally knows that if the queen and Ujinda are allowed to succeed, it will be difficult for him to even live. He just didn't want to upset his father, after all, it was very sad for his father to have sons fratricidal with each other, and the queen's family had greatly helped his father stabilize his royal power.
But now, the queen and her family could not dictate this supplementary contract, because it was better than letting Ubon Ratat stay in the palace of the Great Zhou as a dancer. Moreover, it will not affect their original tax benefits.
A welcome banquet ended happily in the end, and since the emperor had "forgotten" the little twists and turns during the period, all the people present in the two states naturally quickly forgot about it and did not dare to mention it again.
The eldest prince of Ubonda and the princess of Ubunrat will stay in the capital for three days, and the emperor assigns Shujie and Yu Zhengran to accompany the guests on a tour of the capital, and also to protect them.
Princess Uwen Ratcha spoke at this time, and she made a request for the lord of Fuxing to accompany her. The reason is that she is a woman, but everyone else is a man.
Ubonda frowned: "Ubun Lak, you ...... what do you want to provoke?"
Wu Wenlak pouted: "Brother Wang, don't be careful, I have already lost miserably to the Lord of Fuxing, I am willing to gamble and lose, and lose convincingly, what else can I do?" If you don't worry, you can send more people to protect her. Besides, her light skills are obviously better than mine, and I can't outrun her, right? "That kind of dance would not have been possible without light work.
Shu Yao almost couldn't help laughing when she heard the last sentence of U Boon Lak, she believed in her own feelings, U Boon Lak was just competitive, coquettish, and a little self-righteous, but there was no malicious intention. Invite yourself to join me, I want to come because I am curious about my "Feiyan Lotus". Second, it is true that as she said, the eldest brother Shujie and Yu Gongzi who accompanied them are both men.
Shu Yao saw that the emperor looked at her inquiringly, obviously hoping that she could "ignore the past suspicions" and agree to Wu Wenla's request, so she said generously: "Princess Wu Wen Lai is my honored guest of Da Zhou, and it is an honor for Fuxing to accompany the princess on a trip." ”
A beautiful smile suddenly bloomed on U Moon's face, this was the first time she had smiled sincerely and brightly since she arrived in the capital, which stunned many of the men present. Beauty, what a beauty, or a beauty with an exotic style! It's a pity, why did you let it go? The emperor doesn't want to keep her in the palace, so it's good to reward them to anyone.
The emperor was obviously very satisfied with Shu Yao's attitude, this is the bearing that the lord of Fuxing in the Great Zhou should have. Although the Thonburi Dynasty is not large, with the support and help of Thonburi, stability in the southwest is just around the corner. Prince Yong's army entered the city of Ladu. The strength and weakness with Myanmar are clear. It's tantamount to going around to the back door of Myanmar. The front door and back door are blocked, hahaha!
Jin Xida and Shujie are not worried at all, Shuyao is not easy to bully, and Shujie himself is still following.
Shujie was about to explain that Shu Yao would return to the house first, and he would send the guests back to the inn courtyard, and his father-in-law must be busy delivering news to Prince Yong.
Mama Liu from Cining Palace came: "Your Majesty, Niangniang, if the banquet is over, Lafayette wants to summon the Lord of Fuxing." All the ladies are also waiting in Cining Palace to celebrate the lord of Fuxing. ”
The emperor Ha Lu Ha Da Lu smiled: "Go, Yao girl, Lafayette is going to prepare a reward, Lafayette has a lot of treasures at the bottom of the box." "This girl is really a lucky star, today Da Zhou has made a big profit, and she has also won a high-sounding and face-saving appearance. Well, the royal brother Prince Yong is also stained with the light of Fuxing's daughter-in-law, and he will finish Myanmar as soon as possible, so that he can return to the capital as soon as possible to enjoy the joy of family.
"Hehe, the queen mother has rewarded. The concubines have to follow. Your Majesty, the concubines will take these three girls over. The queen also smiled and retired. She knew that the emperor still had important matters to discuss with Jin Xida and several other officials.
Cining Palace is really fragrant, and all the concubines who can be counted are here. It was not enough for the emperor to crown the county lord of Qi as the lord of Fuxing, but also rewarded Yiyuan, which was renamed Fumanyuan, such a shocking news, they found out, can they still come? For fear of being left behind.
The queen mother's face was full of old chrysanthemums: "Yao girl, Fuxing, come and come, hurry up and let the mourning family take a look, I heard that you almost turned into a lotus fairy and flew away today, ouch hey, it can make my old woman anxious." ”
Shu Yao took a few steps forward and saluted: "Lafayette, Yao'er has really become a lotus fairy, and without Lafayette's permission, she doesn't dare to fly around." ”
"Okay, that's what you said." The Queen Mother smiled happily, "Shunzi, quickly present the gift from the mourning family to the lord of Fuxing, and the mourning family will first gag this girl's mouth with a gift, so that she can perform the lotus dance for the mourning family again." ”
"Here we are," said Junko's father-in-law, who hurried happily, holding in both hands a delicately made flat wooden box, which at first glance looked like precious sandalwood.
Mama Liu opened the wooden box, which was made of pink jade and pink pearls for a complete set of lotus heads, which were crystal clear, not only the material was of high quality, but the carving and inlay skills were unparalleled.
The Queen Mother smiled: "This is the favorite set of hair and face of the mourning family when she was a girl, and when you wear it, you feel like a fairy, hehe." Now that I'm old, I can't become an immortal if I become an old monster, so I'll take it by Yao Yatou in the future. ”
Shu Yao hurriedly thanked him, and he didn't care how many people would be jealous of this thing.
The queen and all the concubines also took out good things to reward, so that the four of Lan Jin secretly burst into joy, and their girls came a few more times, and the dowry didn't have to worry, ha.
A group of concubines with "the same joy" on their faces, but there are thousands of different thoughts inside, among which the most complicated mood is to save Concubine Li and Concubine Ma Guifei.
Concubine Li, like Murong Shangshu, has always felt that Donnie Yen is the lucky star of Murong Mansion, but she has no choice but to ......
Now, Donnie Yen's daughter is even more beautiful, it is their Murong family who is not blessed, and Shengsheng has pushed the blessings outward, and even she has been killed!
Ma Guifei had a kind smile on her face, and she was really annoyed in her heart, why didn't she act decisively earlier and let Qi Haoning take the lead? is both talented and beautiful, capable of writing and martial arts, and even saved the emperor, and now he has made great contributions to the Great Zhou...... If the lord of Fuxing became the concubine of the second prince, would this crown prince still run away?
The chagrin and dreams in Ma Guifei's eyes were completely "caught" by Sima Yan, who had just come in, and she snorted secretly: It is not uncommon for the county lord to be this second princess, but it is a pity that you can't enter the eyes of the two marquis mansions.
Sima Yan also learned later that Concubine Ma Guifei and the second prince wanted to marry Shu Yao before.
Sima Yan stood there, seeing that no one noticed her, they all gathered around Shu Yao to celebrate, clenched their fists, and the sharp stinging pain in her palm couldn't get rid of the stinging pain in her heart after all.
Suddenly, a figure hurried in, almost knocking down Sima Yan, who was in a trance, but fortunately, An Siyan on the side was quick and helped him.
It was the grandmother of the Dove Palace who came in, and she walked up to Concubine Li with a panicked face and whispered a few words.
Concubine Li's face changed greatly, she knelt down with a puff, and tears fell like rain in an instant: "Lafayette, Queen Mother, the concubine's father was killed, you have to be the master of the concubine." The queen's mother, the concubine's father has loved the concubine the most since she was a child, and now she is an old man...... Niangniang, the concubine asked to go out of the palace and go back to Murong Mansion, please ask Niangniang for permission. ”
Kill? Everyone was stunned, didn't Murong Shangshu recuperate in the mansion for more than half a year? He has long been unable to participate in the affairs of the household department, and he is just an empty title, who will kill him?
Shu Yao and Mother Liu glanced at each other, and a trace of contempt flashed in their eyes.
The queen mother said with a straight face: "Boss Murong is a member of the imperial court, who dares to break into the house of a third-grade master to assassinate and murder?" ”
In addition to anger on Concubine Li's face, there was also shame: "The family is ugly, it is said that the house has found out, and it was the nephew and daughter-in-law of the concubine who has only been in the door for a few months to do it." (To be continued......)
