() The Nie family was even more panicked, and Princess Nie was so anxious that she burst into tears, "Why did the heaven-damn southern kingdom take a fancy to my words?" Marriage has always been sent by the royal family, where is the turn of a family with a different surname like ours? ”

Nie Wang Ye had another thought, "The emperor of the southern kingdom has worked hard since he ascended the throne, and he is eyeing our northern country. ”

If there is a war between the north and the south, it must be Nie Wang Ye who goes into battle in armor on the northern side, or Nie Chenlin, so Nie Wang Ye said so.

Princess Nie looked at her husband, "That...... So what do we do? ”

Prince Nie pondered for a moment, "We have just solved the matter of abolishing the emperor, coupled with the previous natural disasters, the state affairs are very difficult, if the southern country is in trouble at this time, even if the soldiers use their lives, they may not be able to resist it, and failure is inevitable." ”

Princess Nie's face changed suddenly, "The prince is going into battle, is he going to be defeated?" ”

She admired her husband all her life, and never thought that he would still lose the battle, Nie Wang Ye smiled bitterly, "It's difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, the national strength is like this, what can I do?" ”

"So, what does the prince mean is that for the sake of state affairs, His Royal Highness the Seventh will inevitably let Yu'er marry him?"

As soon as the words fell, the chief steward hurriedly walked over, "Lord Qiqi and princess, someone from the mansion of His Royal Highness Seventh has come, saying that he has something to tell." ”

The person who came was a eunuch, but Yuan Zixi's confidant, and said with a smile on his face: "Your Highness sent the old slave to tell the prince and the princess, don't worry and be anxious, Your Highness will never let the lord of Nanyang go to make peace." ”

Prince Nie's eyes flashed, "Our two countries have never been married in a hundred years, and now that the south has taken the initiative to show goodwill, if His Royal Highness refuses, I am afraid that it will be inappropriate, and the government and the opposition, for the sake of avoiding war, I am afraid that they will also support the marriage." ”

There is no one who has always been a courtier who does not support this matter, as long as he does not fight, and he does not marry the daughter of their family, and the members of the royal family are supported by the people of the country, so they naturally have to contribute to the country.

The most important thing is that Yuan Zixi has not officially ascended the throne now, if he refuses to marry and goes to war with the southern kingdom, it is better to say if he wins, if he loses, I am afraid that this dragon chair will miss out before he sits on it.

Even if it was for the sake of the people of the northern country, Prince Nie didn't want to

There is a war, and the war will inevitably lead to the destruction of lives, the nobles are fine, and it is the people who suffer.

The eunuch hurriedly smiled: "Your Highness said, there is no problem with marriage, but you can't let Nanguo be too arrogant, ask for relatives, ask for relatives, they have to marry whoever we marry, where is their turn to pick and choose." ”

Now that the north and the south are standing side by side, the north is not a defeated country, and the south is not a victorious country, they take the initiative to ask for marriage, in fact, their posture is very low, they should not be named, and at the same time, what Nie Wang Ye suspects is also what Yuan Zixi suspects.

Therefore, in public and private, he didn't want Nie Linyu to marry him.

The other party is courting the unmarried eleventh prince, since he is a prince, he has a princess on his side, the candidates are ready-made, Princess Linglong has a noble status, and she is the only princess in the north, marrying her can reflect the importance that the north attaches to this marriage.

"Your Highness will announce this matter at a big court meeting tomorrow, and this time the old slave will be sent over to let the prince and princess and the county lord not worry."

Nie Linyu lifted the curtain and came in, "Please go back and tell His Royal Highness the Seventh, only say that Lin Yu is like a willow, thanks to the eleventh prince of the southern kingdom who does not dislike it, and allows him to be a wife, how can he be arrogant and refuse instead?" ”

"Lin Yu, agree to the marriage."

She said it categorically, everyone was stunned, the room was full of silence, and it took a long time for Princess Nie to speak, "Yu'er, you"

Nie Linyu raised his hand, signaled his mother not to speak, and said to the eunuch: "There is one more thing, please ask my father-in-law to go back and convey it to His Royal Highness Seven, although His Royal Highness is filial piety, but he must also remember that there are many dreams at night, since the envoy of the southern kingdom is here, His Royal Highness might as well take advantage of the situation to hold the enthronement ceremony, so that the envoy of the southern kingdom can be a witness." ”

Yuan Zixi did not hold the enthronement ceremony for a long time, in order to keep filial piety to the first emperor, but Nie Linyu thought that he should stabilize his identity in time, and not always drag it out, in case of a change, it would be bad.

The eunuch was almost in tears, it was not that no one thought of this, but they didn't dare to say more, now that it was mentioned by Nie Linyu, it couldn't be better, "Yes, thank you for the reminder from the county lord, the old slave will convey it when he goes back." ”

He lowered his head, "The old slave said a little more, the matter of marriage, please consider it carefully, the southern country is far away, the county lord has married in the past, and I am afraid that I will not be able to return to Beijing in this life." ”

As Yuan Zixi's personal servant, this eunuch is naturally very clear about Yuan Zixi's intentions, and he also wants Nie Linyu to be the queen in his own heart.

Nie Linyu smiled slightly, "I have made up my mind, and my father-in-law doesn't need to persuade me anymore." ”

She doesn't want to marry Yuan Zixi, but there is no good way, she can still drag it now, but it is impossible to drag it for a lifetime.

Now that the south has come to ask for marriage, marry it.

Since Fu Moyu died, although Nie Linyu seems to be as usual on the surface, his heart is full of holes, he owes him for two lifetimes, and he can't make up for it, this heartache can't be described in words.

For marriage, she has long been dead, she originally thought that she would simply twist her hair and become a sister-in-law, but she was afraid that her parents would be sad, and it would be better to marry to the south of the country, which could be regarded as contributing to the country.

Princess Nie burst into tears, "Yu'er, how can you agree, Your Royal Highness has come up with ideas, Princess Linglong has a noble status, and she has not insulted the eleventh prince of the southern kingdom, wouldn't it be good to marry her, why do you bother to come out of this?" ”

"Mother, Nanguo named me to marry me, why refuse? Besides, what are the reasons for refusal? Princess Linglong is certainly noble, but Nanguo can't look down on it. She was ruthless and said to Princess Nie: "If I don't marry, I'm afraid that I won't be able to marry in this life, otherwise, no matter who I marry in the future, the southern kingdom will definitely use this raft as a reason to start a war, and when the time comes, won't I become a sinner in the northern kingdom?" ”

Princess Nie cried bitterly, "My daughter, why are you so miserable?"

Nie Linyu comforted his mother, "You think my life is hard, I don't think, I heard that the eleventh prince is the queen of the southern kingdom, if I marry, I have to be a princess, and if I marry a concubine, it is too late to enjoy happiness, how can I suffer?" ”

Prince Bao's Mansion, Yuan Zixi's face sank like water, "She really said that?" ”

The eunuch bowed his waist into a prawn, "Yes." ”

Yuan Zixi clenched his fists, since Nie Linyu agreed, then he didn't seem to have any reason to object, but he always felt unwilling.

Fu Wenwu made a bowl of soup with his own hands and brought it over, walked to the door and listened to two sentences, happy and sad in his heart, happy that Nie Linyu was going to get married, sad that the world was separated from now on.
