The Hidden Dragon in the Abyss Chapter 140 The princess escaped
In recent days, the envoys of the barbarians have been quite arrogant, and they have started a war every day when they open and close their mouths, which makes Zhongshan very passive. There is also an episode in the middle, that the barbarian khan wants to marry and win a princess, and then there are some additional conditions, which need to deliver all kinds of technicians and rare items, and requires 60 kinds of dowry construction and technical works, 100 kinds of curing medicines, 4 kinds of medical treatises, medical doctors' equipment, and also carry various grains and turnip seeds and some iron-making techniques.
As soon as the barbarians made this request, the officials pleaded with His Majesty to agree to this marriage, and praised it as an opportunity to make peace with the sword soldiers, and also to ease the tense tense between the two countries, and so on. As long as it is a good thing, if the princess can persuade the two countries to get along amicably, what a commendable thing.
Emperor Han Qing didn't know what the reason was, there were not many heirs, and there were only three or four daughters, namely Princess Han Ling of Luyuan, Princess Han Jinghe of Pingyang, Princess Han Lingxiu of Nangong, and Princess Han Lengyan of Ruoyun. Among them, Princess Lu Yuan and Princess Pingyang have reached adulthood, Princess Nangong and Princess Ruoyun are seven or eight years old and two years old. Among these princesses, Princess Lu Yuan is already married, and there is only one Pingyang princess, Han Jinghe. Han Jinghe has been rebellious since he was a child, loves dancing knives and guns, and often shouts and trains with the guards.
Han Jinghe is Zhao Wushuang's daughter, Zhao Wushuang is cold by nature, and he loves this daughter very much. When he heard that the ministers in the court wanted to send his daughter to the barbarians and relatives, he refused on the spot. Emperor Han Qing was very angry on the spot and lifted the table. Zhao Wu of the Zhao family himself supported Zhao Wushuang, and began to play the fold, saying that Princess Pingyang was still young, so it was better to choose one from the royal family.
The minister began to oppose again, saying that he chose a woman from the royal family, which was disrespectful to the barbarians, and it was not enough to show the desire of Zhongshan to express peace, and once again collectively wrote to say that he still wanted to marry Princess Pingyang to the barbarians. The second prince continued the peace talks by the river, and the second prince felt very aggrieved by the daily negotiations, and he had to marry his sister, and he wanted to lift the negotiation table again and again, but finally endured it.
"Your Majesty, I'm just such a daughter, the barbarian border is so far away, life is hard, my daughter is so young, I don't know what I will suffer if I go like this, please Your Majesty." Concubine Zhao cried and begged the emperor.
"I don't want to, it's for the country, and I don't want to do it, but what can I do if I don't do it?" Emperor Han Qing was also very helpless.
"That can't sacrifice my daughter, why don't those ministers send their daughters to the barbarians, anyway, if it's not their daughter, they won't feel distressed. But I feel sorry for my own daughter, and I would like to ask Your Majesty whether those people are His Majesty's courtiers or barbarian courtiers. Concubine Zhao continued to cry.
"Presumptuous, this matter is settled, I will compensate you well?"
"I don't want anything, we don't lack anything, even if I don't become this concubine, I have to protect my daughter." Concubine Zhao cried and hugged the emperor's thigh with one hand.
"Confused, Concubine Zhao is unwell, from now until the day of Princess Pingyang's wedding, no one is allowed to visit" The emperor turned around to leave, Concubine Zhao was still holding on to Emperor Han Qing's clothes, but Han Qing threw her head over with one hand, knocked her head to the side of the chair, and fainted.
Princess Han Jinghe of Pingyang is also uneasy these days, she has been going to stay in her mother's harem every day these days, she is afraid that she will never see her mother again after leaving. On this day, I came to the palace gate normally, and found that the palace gate was closed, and there were two guards guarding it.
"Princess, Your Majesty has issued an order, Concubine Zhao is unwell, no one is allowed to visit" After speaking, the guards blocked Han Jinghe's way.
"Presumptuous, I'm going to see my mother, I'll see who dares to stop me" The guards knew that Han Jinghe was not an ordinary princess, and often beat the guards when she was a little unsatisfactory, and the guards couldn't help sweating on their faces.
"Please also forgive me for the difficulties, Your Majesty has decreed that no one is allowed, including Your Royal Highness the Princess" The guards dare not let the princess in, and they will be punished for letting the princess in privately.
"Mother, mother, how are you" The guards stopped themselves, and they couldn't force themselves in, Han Jinghe could only shout at the door.
"Daughter, daughter, I don't have anything to do, I'm just not feeling well, your father is ruthless and must send you and kiss, if you don't want to go, find your grandfather secretly, he will have a way." Hurry up, there's a lot of people here. Concubine Zhao comforted Han Jinghe and pointed him out the way out.
Since Concubine Zhao has already said a way, she must go out quickly, otherwise she will limit Han Jinghe's pace, and no one will be of use at that time.
Han Jinghe himself is a fiery character, and after receiving his mother's instructions, he directly accompanied the palace maid who made the palace purchase and slipped out. Came directly to the Zhao Mansion, Zhao Wu was also worried about the princess's marriage, the Zhao family is now weak and can't protect his granddaughter. I didn't expect my granddaughter to run out by herself, which is a terrible thing.
"Why did you run out, my little ancestor"
"My mother has been locked up by my father, my mother asked me to come to you, you must take me in, you have to help me, I don't want to marry a barbarian." There was already a cry in Han Jinghe's voice.
"Ah" As soon as Zhao Wu heard this, he knew that His Majesty had made a ruthless decision about this matter, and he must marry this granddaughter of his own, and it was true that the royal family had no family affection.
However, Zhao Wu did not dare to leave Princess Pingyang in the mansion, so that the emperor would be very disgusted with the entire Zhao family, which was not a good plan.
If you can't keep it yourself, is there any good way?
"It is estimated that the guards in the palace are about to come to arrest you, and I can't protect you here, but I will show you a way out, I will write a letter now, and I will take you to Chen Ye's house. Even if the guards in the palace knew you were there, they wouldn't dare to arrest you. Let him give you a way to get out? Zhao Wu could only pin all his hopes on Chen Ye, hoping that Chen Ye could help.
"Is that Chen Ye who has many legends, and the messenger banquet is witty and relieved? But with just a letter from my grandfather, can he help me? "Han Jinghe feels unreliable, after all, why should people help you if you have no relatives and no reason.
"I don't know, only he will really help you, you are now walking on the blade, if there is still someone in the court who asks you not to marry a barbarian, he is the only one who can help you now." Regardless of Han Jinghe's opinions, he hurriedly wrote a letter and stuffed Han Jing and a little silver as a dot. Find a close person, disguise her, and secretly lead Chen Ye's mansion.
As soon as Han Jinghe left here, the Imperial Forest Army had already surrounded the Zhao Mansion, Zhao Wu walked out, saw the leader of the Royal Forest Army and said: "I don't know what the general means by surrounding my mansion, is it possible that there is no one in the Zhao family who bullied me, and he can be slaughtered by others?" ”
The general of the Imperial Forest Army also did not talk nonsense: "Zhao Wu listens to orders"
"Send Princess Peace back!" The decree is as simple as that, and it seems that His Majesty is very anxious and annoyed. It's a pity that Han Jinghe has already been sent out.
"General, the minister's daughter has sent someone back to the palace just now, but there is no one at home." Zhao Wu covered up for Han Jinghe.
"I obviously sent someone to see that Princess Pinghe had just entered the mansion, and the adults sent it back so quickly? Offended! With a wave of his hand, the leader of the Imperial Forest Army rushed straight in.
After a stick of incense.
"No one in the General's backyard"
"There's no one in the front yard either"
"Let's go" The leader of the Royal Forest Army turned pale, he didn't find it, he offended a family, and he was speechless. I had to leave with the soldiers, and the Royal Guards were just about to withdraw with a large group of men. I saw a servant come back with a blue nose and swollen face.
"The lord is not good, the princess beat me, she ran away" As soon as the servant said this, the face of the leader of the Imperial Forest Army changed, and he hurriedly divided his troops into two ways, blocking the city gate all the way, and returning to the palace all the way to report the news. This news has a bearing on the progress of the peace talks, and he does not dare to delay it.
After the Imperial Forest Army left, Zhao Wu gave the servant a compliment, "Not bad, yes, my lord, I have a lot of rewards, I didn't expect you to get along with such a good way." First, please ask for your own suspicion, and second, the princess can't find it", as long as the princess can't find it, no one can do anything.
"Sir, it's not my credit, it's the princess's idea, and after she handed the name card through the side door, she beat me up, saying that this method is better." The servant said honestly.
"En, yes, thank you for your hard work, go to the back to receive the reward" After speaking, he asked the servant to go to the back to receive the reward, but his granddaughter performed such a good show, do you have to cooperate well and play a round of emotional cards. If he dared to do it, Zhao Wu went back to the study to write the recital, and after he finished writing, he cried to His Majesty with a handful of tears.
Originally, Emperor Han Qing was annoyed, but when such an accident happened, he was even more annoyed, and directly ordered the second prince to suspend the negotiations. The barbarian envoy was about to negotiate, and took this opportunity to extort a sum of money, but he didn't expect the princess to run away. There is no way, and now the whole capital is mobilizing manpower to find the princess.
The barbarians want Honglu Temple every day, and they want princesses every day.
At this moment, Princess Pingyang, as a loyal figure who stirred up the capital, was drinking tea in Chen Ye's hall, looking east and west. The decorations and items in this Chen Ye's home are different.
