Chapter 338: The Princess's Pleading
After resting at the post station for another half a month, the envoy of Lan Zhengguo entered the palace with a pale face to face the saint.
This is the blessing of Emperor Shengxi sending a doctor to visit the sick.
The ministers looked at each other coldly, they had never seen such a shameless mission, and they cowered in the post station and said that if they don't move, they won't move, and the food of Zhao is free. In particular, the officials of the Ministry of Household Rites and Rites, whose workload has increased, are particularly unpleasant to look at the Lan Zhengguo Mission.
The other missions were eager to meet the saint as soon as possible and return to China as soon as possible, so Lan Zhengguo regarded Zhao Guoyi as his home.
Every time she heard Su Zhiyu come back and say this, Du Ruonan wanted to laugh, she was more concerned about Lan Zhengguo's fabrics, "Then do you have any news about Lan Zhengguo's printing and dyeing?" ”
"You, you only have printing and dyeing in your eyes."
People are not as good as Su Zhiyu, who is not as skilled as Su Zhiyu, and made trouble for Du Ruonan for a night, and the next day obediently inquired about Lan Zhengguo's cloth technology for Du Ruonan.
And Lan Zhengguo's stay at the post station is not as simple as being unadaptable.
The current king of Lan Zhengguo is an ambitious fellow who has wanted to incorporate Zhao into his own territory from a very early age.
Deliberately contacted the generals of Zhao State, and after reaching a consensus, they supported each other to cover up, but when the harvest came, the other party suddenly could not be contacted, and the king of Lan Zhengguo suddenly couldn't sit still, and decided to go to the imperial city of Zhao State to find out in person.
These days, the embassy said that he was sick and recuperated at the post station, and the king of Lan Zheng wandered around the imperial city in disguise.
It's a pity that the imperial city is singing and dancing, and the king of Lanzheng hasn't heard any news he wants.
Emperor Shengxi also sent a physician to check, and the people of the mission who didn't want to show their stuffing had to recover and enter the palace. As the pearl of Lan Zhengguo's palm, the most dazzling existence in the mission, Lan Yu'er was very reluctant and could only dress up and enter the palace under orders.
Empress Lan Zheng was seriously ill and did not ask about palace affairs.
Since she was a child, she has been taken care of by her grandmother, and she has heard her talk about the size of the world, Lan Yuer just wants to be a free bird and look around.
And not because of the ambitions of King Lan Zheng struggling in the court.
was threatened by King Lan Zheng with the queen, and Lan Yu'er, who was powerless to resist, often cried secretly at night.
Jiaofang Palace.
"I've seen Her Majesty the Queen, I'm Lan Yu'er of Lan Zhengguo."
Lan Yu'er looked at Su Mingyue with a grin, she had thought that she would have a gentle and quiet sister like Su Mingyue, but she felt that Lan Zhengguo couldn't raise such a person.
"Your Majesty, I want to call you sister."
"I've always wanted to have a real sister like you."
Lan Yu'er came to Su Mingyue's side to behave obediently, making Su Mingyue smile.
Seeing this, the envoy of Lan Zhengguo was very satisfied.
Considered the princess to be interested, after leaving the palace, she said a few kind words to His Majesty, and the envoy of Lan Zhengguo felt that Lan Yu'er entered the harem of Emperor Shengxi to do the internal things. He even began to imagine that Lan Yu'er successfully won the love of Emperor Shengxi and gave birth to a prince, and in the future, the prince ascended the throne of Zhao with the support of Lan Zhengguo and turned Zhao into Lan Zhengguo.
After a happy conversation between the guest and the host, Lan Yu'er was left in the Jiaofang Palace.
King Lan Zheng, who was waiting for the news at the post station, was also very satisfied, and immediately decided the return time, and planned to see Lan Yu'er again before leaving.
Lan Yu'er in the Jiaofang Hall did not please Su Mingyue as King Lan Zheng thought, she knelt in front of Su Mingyue with a firm expression, which startled Su Mingyue, and refused to get up no matter how Su Mingyue helped her.
Lan Yu'er put her forehead on the ground, "I implore the queen to fulfill it." ”
"You didn't say what you want me to do, how can I fulfill you? You get up first, and we'll talk slowly. Su Mingyue couldn't cry or laugh.
Lan Yu'er's stubborn appearance reminded her of Du Ruonan in the past.
At that time, they were worried about the business of the cloth house side by side.
When encountering unsolvable technical problems in dyeing cloth, Du Ruonan stubbornly soaked in the dyeing room, tried again and again, and refused to turn back when he touched the south wall. Looking at the magnificent palace now, Su Mingyue thought that she had a dream every time she remembered the past.
"I don't want to be a member of Emperor Zhao's harem."
Maybe Su Mingyue's expression was too gentle, Lan Yu'er blurted out.
Yes, she didn't.
Accustomed to seeing all kinds of messy things in her father's palace, and listening to her grandmother say that the parents of commoner couples are short, Lan Yu'er thought that even if it was inevitable to start a family, she would have to be inseparable from each other.
Like Du Ruonan and Su Zhiyu, but also like Su Mingyue and Emperor Shengxi.
I don't want to be a victim of the conspiracy, and I don't want to be a murderer who destroys this feeling.
"But when you came to Zhao Kingdom, you came to enter the palace as a concubine." Frightened by Lan Yu'er's boldness, Su Mingyue blurted out.
Su Mingyue knows very well that even if she is the mother of a country, she can't change the fact that she shares the same husband with others. The only thing he could do was to hold her husband's heart and let Emperor Shengxi have only her left in his heart.
It is clear and clear, and it does not prevent Su Mingyue from using this as an excuse to clean up Emperor Shengxi.
Emperor Shengxi, who was cleaned up, sneezed fiercely in front of the courtiers and received a bitter medicine carefully prepared by the imperial doctor.
"But I don't want to, I want to be like Niangniang to find someone who treats me sincerely, and it has nothing to do with what capacity I set foot on the land of Zhao. If Niangniang is not willing to believe it, I am willing to swear in the name of the ancestors of Lan Zhengguo and my mother. ”
Lan Yu'er's eyes sparkled. v5
Leaving Lan Zhengguo, as long as there is the help of Emperor Zhao, King Lan Zheng can't force her.
For the sake of freedom, she is determined to win.
Seeing this, Su Mingyue waved away the palace people who were waiting, so as to avoid having ears on the wall.
"Lan Yu'er, as a princess of a country, you should know what your actions will bring to your own country, so now can you tell me why you don't want to? In His Majesty's harem, you will be peaceful and happy for the rest of your life. Su Mingyue was very curious about Lan Yu'er's bold reason.
"To be a puppet of peace and joy for the rest of your life?"
"That's not the life I want, I want to see the world with the people I like."
Lan Yu'er pulled Su Mingyue and began to imagine the future, talking about the seriously ill Empress Lan Zheng, "When my mother was young, her eyes were not good, and she fell in love with my father, thinking that she had met a lifelong lover, who knew that she had just left the wolf's den and entered the tiger's mouth......"
Lan Yuer's mother, born in Lan Zhengguo's Zhenguo Mansion, was also the first beauty of Lan Zhengguo back then.
The cannibalistic Zhenguo Mansion wants to exchange the queen mother for more benefits.
The father appeared like a god and saved the queen mother.
The queen mother thought that a good day had come, and the father suddenly showed the face of a jackal.
Lan Yu'er sometimes can't help but wonder, who is the queen mother? Is it a pale woman lying sick in the queen's bedroom, or a merry beauty who has changed her name and identity and forced her smile to wander among the many powerful people?
She knew that she couldn't save her mother.
But the queen mother said that her little princess should not be trapped in this place.
The past was too heavy, and a thousand words were in one sentence, Lan Yu'er said faintly: "The queen mother hopes that I can find someone I really love in the future, even if I have to eat bran vegetables for the rest of my life." ”
"I'll mention it to Your Majesty."
After hesitating for a moment, Su Mingyue agreed to Lan Yu'er's request.
Su Mingyue told Emperor Shengxi about this, and Emperor Shengxi said something interesting and asked Su Mingyue not to worry about it, he would deal with it. The Lan Zhengguo delegation resigned because it had been delayed for too long, and wanted to see Lan Yu'er before leaving, but Emperor Shengxi readily agreed, and the location was set in the Imperial Garden.
King Lan Zheng in disguise commanded: "Yu'er, don't forget your mission. ”
"But my task is not to stay quietly in His Majesty's harem and act as a mascot of friendship between the two countries?"
Lan Yu'er, who was infected by Su Mingyue, plucked up the courage to refute King Lan Zheng, and was slapped in the face, and her face was swollen on the spot.
King Lan Zheng casually threw the wound medicine on the ground, and said in a low voice: "You are my daughter after all, I don't want to use the means on you, I don't want to be obedient like your mother, and you will have your benefits after the deed." ”
"Gain the trust of the Emperor of Zhao and steal the border military map."
"By the way, a minister proposed to let you give birth to a child with the blood of the royal family of Zhao State, and control Zhao State through this child, I think it's good, you can do it yourself." The ambitious King Lan Zheng plans to have a double insurance.
Lan Yu'er glared at King Lan Zheng reluctantly, hating fire like a knife.
"Yes, it's this look, this is the pearl of my Lan Zhengguo."
"It's up to you whether the minister's proposal is up to you, after all, once the war starts, Lan Zhengguo will not be your backing, and you can be safer with a child." King Lan Zheng rarely relented and said a few more words, "The mission will leave tomorrow, and I will wait for your good news for my father in Lan Zhengguo, Yu'er." ”
Lan Yu'er, who was left behind in the Imperial Garden, was especially grateful to Emperor Shengxi for clearing the scene in advance so that no one could see her embarrassed at this time.
In the face of Su Mingyue's concern, under the pretext of accidentally falling, Lan Yu'er locked herself in the house and cried, crying and waiting to meet Emperor Shengxi, she swore that she would never return to Lan Zhengguo for the rest of her life.
Because of the face given to the Lan Zhengguo delegation, the timing of Emperor Shengxi's election was very ingenious.
On the night when Lan Yu'er was beaten, Emperor Shengxi looked at the restrained Lan Yu'er and had to admit that this was a magnolia-like beauty.
If he hadn't met Su Mingyue, Emperor Shengxi would have been moved.
Now he just wants to explain to Su Mingyue tomorrow how to stay with Lan Yu'er, this is a political need.
"You don't have to be afraid, I heard the queen say that you don't want to enter the palace as a concubine?" Looking at Lan Yu'er, who was about to take a knife to guard, Emperor Shengxi decided to go straight to the point.
Lan Yu'er nodded nervously, "I really don't want to." ”
"If I had an obedient sister, my father would not choose my uncaring daughter."
This is very good, Lan Yu'er tore apart her position with Lan Zhengguo, "In the past few days of living in the palace, I am deeply moved by the relationship between Your Majesty and the Queen Mother, and I hope that I can find a true lover like Your Majesty and the Queen Mother in the future." ”
"If you say this, you're not afraid that I'll be angry with Lan Zhengguo?"
Emperor Shengxi looked at Lan Yu'er playfully, this princess was not the docile little sheep described by the envoy of Lan Zhengguo.
"Your Majesty." Lan Yu'er tensed her back, and her back was drenched in cold sweat.
She knew that this was a temptation by the Emperor of Zhao.
As long as she passes the temptation, the day she wants is not far off.
The atmosphere became more and more solemn, and Lan Yu'er was nervous, almost wanting to kneel in front of Emperor Shengxi and beg for mercy. Emperor Shengxi suddenly spoke: "Your request, I agreed, but not immediately. ”
Lan Yu'er was overjoyed, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your success." ”
