Volume 1: Da Chu Chapter 49: Marriage (II)

"If the saint agrees to marry Princess Hanyue to me, I Beishuo is willing to give up the border territory for five years, during which I will not fight with Dachu, and enter the palace every year with hundreds of cattle and sheep, and then give up three copper and iron mines to Dachu, I wonder if these can show my sincerity?" Tu Lie's face did not change his color and he said in surprise.

The conditions he offered were enough to make Emperor Chu excited, not to mention anything else, just giving up the border territory for five years was already very tempting to him!

Five years is enough time for him to expand his troops and horses on the border, and strengthen his defenses, as long as he holds the border territory, then in the future there will be a war with Beishuo or Nanli, he Dachu is definitely capable of fighting!

Emperor Chu has coveted the border territory for a long time, but he has not had enough troops to conquer, which is also an important reason for his lack of troops in Great Chu!

As long as there is a vast territory on the border, then the national strength of his Great Chu will rise to another level, and he will have a place to train soldiers and horses, mine minerals, and grow crops!

Moreover, Tulie also promised to send three copper and iron ores, which are intangible wealth, and the three ore veins are enough to create a good pair of armor and weapons for the army of Da Chu!

Emperor Chu's excited eyelids jumped, he seemed to see the strong era of Great Chu in the future!

"Okay, I'm done!" As soon as the word was finalized, Hanyue's marriage was given by a transaction.

Tu Lie smiled at the corner of his mouth, not surprised at all, Hanyue is determined to get it, as for the things he just promised, whether he can get it depends on Da Chu's ability.

A marriage was decided like this, and Da Hanyue, who was in the Moon Palace, didn't know anything about it, and she still fantasized that her father could kill Tulie for himself and wash away her shame in blood.

For a few days, the excitement of the capital gradually cooled down and returned to its original state with the past of Chu Mo's wedding, everything seemed to return to the original point, the only constant was the battle between the three princes and the crown prince, which seemed to be becoming more and more obvious.

Since Chu Mo and Zhong Guoxiang became a family, Chu Mo quickly caught the flaws of several princelings with a strong attitude, and left no room for his own people.

The power of the court is now divided into two, half on the side of the crown prince, half following the third prince Chu Mo, and the two will not let anyone,-for-tat.

Emperor Chu didn't seem to know about the fight between the two of them, he always turned a blind eye, as long as it wasn't too excessive, Emperor Chu would not interfere in the fight between the two of them.

Since ancient times, what emperor has not stepped on the bloody road step by step to that position, Emperor Chu himself has experienced it, and these two sons are very good, if it is not a last resort, he will not interfere.

Now that the prince is no longer as strong as before, he is pacing back and forth in Chengfeng Palace at this moment, thinking about how to win back a game from the third child.

"Queen Mother, when will Uncle return to Beijing?" Chu Ying paced, asking with an anxious face.

The queen was annoyed by him walking back and forth, and raised her hand to let him sit down first: "Your uncle will be able to arrive in the capital in about a month or two." ”

"A month or two? Why is it taking so long? Chu Ying sat down a little bored, poured himself a glass of water and drank it all, and his eyebrows were full of sorrow.

"Your uncle is the general of Zhenyuan, and this time he finally quelled the riots in the surrounding small countries, this will be busy with the end, a month or two is already fast." The queen said helplessly, she didn't want her brother to come back soon, and she had the confidence to fight secretly with Concubine Rong with her brother.

Recently, Concubine Rong may have become more and more arrogant with the expansion of Chu Mo's power, and even the emperor went to her for a few days, and the wind in the palace faintly meant to fall to her.

Thinking of these queens, she couldn't help but have a headache, she reached out and gently rubbed her temples, and then found that she didn't seem to have seen Hanyue for many days, she asked again: "Ying'er, have you seen your sister recently, usually she likes to come to the queen mother the most, why hasn't the queen mother seen her for several days." ”

Chu Ying was worried in his heart, where did he have time to look at Han Yue, he only frowned and shook his head, not to mention, he didn't seem to have seen Han Yue for a long time.

"If the queen mother is worried, why don't you send someone to the Moon Palace to announce her sister, so as not to worry about herself." Chu Ying said absentmindedly, still thinking about the affairs of the court in his heart.

The queen shook her head, they are all in the palace, and no one has come to report about Hanyue's exit from the palace recently.

"Queen Mother, Concubine Rong is here to say goodbye!"

Just as the queen was thinking about Hanyue, the palace maid told her at this time that the person she didn't want to see at the moment had come to ask for peace, which was really strange.

"Let's just say that the palace has a headache and rests, but I don't see it." The queen refused without thinking about it, out of sight is pure.

The palace maid responded, and just wanted to withdraw to pass the word, but unexpectedly, Concubine Rong walked in despite the obstruction of the palace maids.

"My sister is not feeling well, so my sister has to come in and take a look." Concubine Rong was wearing a scarlet pipa-sleeved palace shirt, and on her head was a flowing crystal jade chiba hairpin recently rewarded by the emperor, and the flowing hairpin made a crisp sound of tinkling bells as she walked.

The queen only felt that her eyes hurt when she saw her, and even her ears began to hurt after hearing the crisp sound, but she didn't have a seizure, and there was no flaw in her expression.

She put on the queen's shelf, and before she could open her mouth to sit down, Concubine Rong sat down by herself, so that her words were blocked in her throat and couldn't speak.

After a while, she calmed down, and there was a forced smile on her face: "I don't know what the so-called sister came to the palace?" She didn't want to go around in circles with Concubine Rong, so she said straight to the point.

Concubine Rong smiled softly, she was really happy with the emperor's favor, she didn't come here for any other purpose, just to ......

"Isn't my sister here to say hello to my sister, and I want to beg for candy to eat!" She chuckled.

The queen frowned, puzzled: "Daoxi? Where does the joy come from? ”

Chu Ying also squinted at Concubine Rong unkindly, not knowing what kind of medicine she was selling in her gourd.

Concubine Rong opened her mouth in surprise, and her eyes seemed to be a little incredible: "No, sister, don't you know yet?" ”

When the queen looked at her pretentious appearance, a bad premonition welled up in her heart, "What do you know?" Why does the concubine bother to play dumb riddles with this palace? She disdains Concubine Rong to call herself a sister.

Concubine Rong was not angry, she told her kindly: "My sister didn't know it yet, not long ago, the emperor decided to marry Beishuo, and my sister just knew, so I'm not in a hurry to say hello to my sister!" ”

"What?!" The queen's eyelids jumped fiercely, and her palms unconsciously clenched the seat, "Marriage? Who married Beishuo? Her right eyelid jumped, and the feeling of bad premonition grew stronger.

Rong Guifei saw that she was anxious and felt a surge of pleasure in her heart, she took a sip of tea without hurrying, and after admiring the queen's anxious expression, she said slowly: "Who else can it be, of course it is our emperor's favorite princess - Hanyue..."

With a "snap", the teacup in front of the queen's table was accidentally broken by her, the tea splashed the corners of her skirt, and the teacup was torn apart, just like her mood at the moment.

"Oh, sister, why are you not careful, it seems that it is really my sister who is bothering, hurry, don't take my sister to change clothes." Concubine Rong seemed to be taken aback by her actions, but the tone of her voice couldn't hide the secret joy in her heart.

The palace maids hurriedly stepped forward to help the queen to the apse to change clothes, what Concubine Rong wanted to say had already been said, and there was no need to stay here any longer.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, the princess's wedding, the Japanese palace will definitely send a big congratulatory gift!" Concubine Rong smiled lightly, and after finishing speaking, she dragged away with the end of her long skirt.

Chu Ying's face was black, he didn't know about Hanyue's marriage with Beishuo now, or heard it from other people's mouths, did his father even hide this from himself? !

"Win, win!" The queen ran out with red eyes after Concubine Rong left, clutching Chu Ying's arm tightly with both hands.

"Queen Mother!" Chu Ying hurriedly held her body that was about to fall, and carefully put her on the chair and sat down

"Ying'er, you quickly find a way to save Yue'er, she is your own sister, she can't marry Beishuo!" The queen's tears kept rolling in her eyes, and it seemed that she was going to cry in the next moment.

Chu Ying is also a headache now, the third child has not solved his attack on his own people a few days ago, and now such a thing suddenly pops up, and he can't do anything for a while.

But he still nodded and comforted her: "Don't worry, the queen mother, the son will not let his sister marry Beishuo!" "It's like convincing the queen mother, and it's also convincing yourself.

"No, no, this matter can't be delayed, you, you go get a pen and paper, this palace will write to your uncle in person!" The marriage between Hanyue and Beishuo can't be delayed any longer, since the emperor has been refusing to tell her, he must be trying to hide it from her, and now that he knows, he can't watch his daughter fall into the tiger's mouth!

Chu Ying nodded, the palace people quickly put the paper, pen, ink and inkstone on the table, and the queen trembled and picked up the brush and drew on the paper one by one to write the letter.

After a while, a letter was written, sealed with red wax, solemnly handed the letter to Chu Ying, and said: "Ying'er, you have to find a way to deliver this letter to your uncle as soon as possible, remember, you must be fast!" "When it's too late, she's afraid that her daughter will be gone!

Chu Ying nodded heavily, now is not the time to think about other things, he put away the letter and left Chengfeng Palace with a solemn face.

…………

"Oh? You said that Concubine Rong told the queen about the marriage between Hanyue and Beishuo? ”

In the Evening Garden, a masked man in the backyard garden leaned against the soft collapse and said casually.

Yeluo, who was half-kneeling on the ground, nodded his head: "That's right, the subordinates listened to it sincerely, and the queen also wrote a letter to General Hua." ”

General Hua, that is, the Zhenyuan general of Dachu, his real name is Hua Chengwu, and the queen Hua Chengshu is a brother and sister, the first three generations of the family have been from the text, until Hua Chengwu began to abandon the literature and martial arts and performed military exploits to get the title of this first-class general.

Duan Yi had inquired about the relationship before he came, and naturally he knew who General Nahua was.

Want to move the rescuers? I would also like to ask him if he agrees.

Duan Yi smiled indifferently, the corners of his mouth rose to render this man's unbeatable fanfare, he hooked his fingers, and the night fell over, Duan Yi whispered a few words in his ear.

"Yes, my subordinates will do it!" Nightfall took the order, and he disappeared into the garden like a shadow, as if he had never been there.

After saying this, Duan Yi closed his eyes and lay quietly in this cool back garden, and the figure of a little guy appeared in his heart, and he didn't know what she was doing now.

You don't have to think about it to know that what he is thinking about at the moment is Zhongqing, and Duan Yi himself doesn't know that it seems to have become very wrong recently, at least when he is facing someone, he doesn't look like himself at all.
