Chapter 182: Falling Flowers Are Intentional, Flowing Water Is Ruthless
"Your Majesty!"
Xiao Mingyue pushed Chen Xian away.
"Bright Moon...... I'm sorry! It's a widow, isn't it!"
Chen Xian said apologetically.
"Your Majesty, in fact, Mingyue came this time because she wanted to ask Your Majesty's permission!" Xiao Mingyue hurriedly changed the topic and said.
"What's the matter?"
"Mingyue's brother-in-law, Qiao Jieqiao, and Sister Qingyuan are about to get married, I want to take Princess Huan'er to the wedding banquet of the two of them, I don't know if Your Majesty can allow it?"
"I'm going out of the palace again...... But since they are your two friends, then you can go, and the widow will prepare a congratulatory gift for them, and will send someone to protect you! Go early and come back early!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty! If Your Majesty has nothing else to do, Mingyue will retire first!"
"Bright Moon! Wait a minute! You're not going to leave the widow, are you?!" Chen Xian grabbed Xiao Mingyue's arm and asked eagerly.
Xiao Mingyue was stunned by this suddenness, and after a moment, she said to Chen Xian: "How could Your Majesty ask this, how could Mingyue leave Your Majesty!" Your Majesty should rest assured!"
"That's good! That's good! I think it's a widow who has a lot of hearts, but in fact, the widow and Zhen ......"
"What does Your Majesty want to say?"
"No, it's nothing, you can go with confidence!"
Then he spread Xiao Mingyue's arm, looking at Xiao Mingyue's departing figure, Chen Xian's eyes and heart were full of reluctance and nostalgia.
"Yu Wendi, you and I are not only political enemies, but also love enemies. I vow not to stand apart in this life!" Chen Xian clenched his fists and said through gritted teeth.
Then Gonggong Zhao hurriedly came in, "Your Majesty, Lord Yushi asks to see you!"
"Xuan!"
After a while, Zhu Yushi hurriedly entered the Qinzheng Hall and said to Chen Xian: "Minister Zhu Zheng sees Your Majesty, and the minister has something important to do!"
Chen Xian had already returned to the dragon chair at this time, and when he heard that Zhu Yushi had something important, he hurriedly said, "What's the matter, tell me quickly!"
"Your Majesty, the king of the party sent a letter to him, wanting to negotiate with His Majesty, and is willing to give up the land of a hundred miles on the border between the two countries!" Zhu Yushi said.
"Is there such a good thing? What are his intentions? Chen Xian asked.
"Back to Your Majesty, King Dang Xiang wants to join forces with His Majesty to attack the Northern Wei Dynasty, King Dang Xiang means that the two countries will join forces, and then win over Rouran, and His Majesty will serve as the chief of the joint column, and cut down Wei!" Zhu Yushi said.
Chen Xian sneered when he heard this, and then said disdainfully: "This party king is really calculating, he wants to pull in the widow with just a hundred miles of land, and on the surface give the widow a longitudinal 'high hat', but in fact, let the widow come out and be this bad guy, he is really smart!"
"That's true, so what do you mean, Your Majesty, it's time for us to reject the Dang Xiang King?!" Zhu Yushi asked.
"Nope! Promise him!" Chen Xian said.
"Your Majesty? You mean...... Agree to join forces with the party to defeat Wei? Zhu Yushi asked.
"That's right, promise him, but you don't need the title of longitudinal chief, the widow doesn't want to learn from King Chu Huai to be competitive and defeated. If the king of the party wants to do it, let him do it, if he doesn't want to do it, he doesn't need to be the chief of the longitudinal chief, just find a reason! No need to break a boat!"
Chen Xian said.
"But if Your Majesty really wants to go to war, there will inevitably be damage, and now the military camp and the people are recuperating, so I'm afraid there will be a period of time to recover!" Zhu Yushi continued.
"Zhu Yushi, when did you become so kind to a woman? Now that the Northern Wei Dynasty wants to be dominant, if he doesn't dispel his arrogance, I'm afraid that it will be our Chen State that will be crusaded against in the future! With Yu Wendi's personality, since he can do business all over the world, he has naturally coveted the land of all countries in the world for a long time. How funny!"
"Your Majesty, the minister still has something to report. The Northern Wei Dynasty also sent a message, saying that Emperor Wei had personally selected twelve women who could sing and dance to give to His Majesty, and at this time they were already on the way!"
"What? There are such things! Outrageous! How long will it take for people to reach the realm of my Chen Kingdom?!" Chen Xian asked angrily.
"Back to Your Majesty, according to the messenger's message, the day after tomorrow at the latest!"
"Send someone to solve it and make it look like a bandit and robber!" Chen Xian said indifferently.
"Your Majesty, if this is the case, I'm afraid it will be ......"
"If you let these twelve women into the palace, what will happen to you? At the least, the widow will have a reputation for being lustful, and at worst, if there is a fine work in it, it will be too late to regret it! If all the women who come are jealous and ruthless like Concubine Hui, then wouldn't this harem become a den of tigers and wolves? Chen Xian said.
"Your Majesty said yes! The minister will send someone to do it! It's just that the matter of sending troops to attack the Northern Wei Dynasty, Your Majesty still needs to think twice! Tomorrow in the court, I hope that Your Majesty and the ministers will discuss it in the long run!"
"Well, the widow has his own decision! It's okay, just step down!"
Thinking of the many benefits of the cavalry going north, first, the Northern Wei Dynasty was rich in water and grass, rich in cattle and sheep, if it could be captured, not only would the land of Chen expand by more than half, but also the Northern Wei Dynasty was icy and snowy, and there were many plains and new areas, and there were few plague diseases and earthquakes and landslides.
He was even more determined to take this opportunity to go north.
…………
On the day when Qing Kite and Qiao Jie got married, Xiao Mingyue dressed up early, and then asked Yunzhu to go to Xiao Huan's palace to see if she had cleaned up.
Xiao Wan wore a green skirt, and ran over to beg Cai Wei to comb her hair in a bun.
Looking left and right in the dressing mirror, he looked at Xiao Mingyue and asked playfully, "Sister Mingyue, how is Wan'er dressed?" Won't you steal the limelight from Sister Qing Kite, right? "
"You are dressed playfully and cutely, different from the bride's red wedding dress, and you are dressed very decently!" Xiao Mingyue smiled.
"That's good!"
Then he turned his head and asked Cai Wei, "Cai Wei, do you see if the rouge on my mouth is thicker?" This peachy pink doesn't seem to suit me very well!"
"No! The princess is in the prime of her youth, and when she is in the boudoir, her daughter's family painting is the most suitable!" Cai Wei explained.
"Really! When you say that, I am relieved!"
Xiao Mingyue looked at Xiao Wan and smiled and said, "Huan'er, it's not early, we should go, otherwise we won't be able to catch up with the newcomers!"
"Oh yes, I promised Sister Qing Kite to accompany her into the wedding room! Let's go!"
Then the two of them got into the carriage in the palace and were escorted by the forbidden army to Zhilan Pavilion.
The entrance of Zhilan Pavilion is also very festive, a pair of bright happy words, and a pair of red lanterns.
The shopkeeper Xiaoqi was waiting at the door, and when he saw Xiao Mingyue and Xiao Wan getting out of the carriage, he hurriedly stepped forward to greet him with a smile: "You two are here, our son and wife are waiting inside!" Ji Gongzi has also arrived!"
"Brother Ji is already here, where is it?" Xiao Wan heard that Ji Yu had arrived, and hurriedly asked.
"Huan'er, Ji Gongzi is inside, what's the hurry! Won't you see you in a while? Xiao Mingyue looked at Xiao Huan's anxious appearance and admonished.
Xiao Wan also thought, thinking that in front of outsiders, she should have been more reserved as a princess.
coughed softly and said to Xiao Qi: "Let's take us to see the bride first!"
Then the two followed Xiao Qi to the green kite's happy room, and the two pushed the door and entered, and saw that the green kite was wearing a phoenix crown. Then they happily stepped forward to congratulate and took out their own congratulatory gifts.
Qing Kite said with a smile: "You can come today, it is already the best blessing for me and Brother Qiao, why do you still bring these valuable things!" "
"Take it! What a generous gift, it's just a piece of heart between me and Huan'er, you accept it, and it will not be in vain for our sisters, so that you have obtained your own happiness, and we are all happy for you!" Xiao Mingyue said.
"Yes! How can you still have a 'big brother Qiao'! It's time to change your name to Xianggong!" Xiao Wan laughed.
When the green kite heard this, her face turned red, and she lowered her head, and the woman beside her whispered, "Girl, it's not too early, it's time to put on the red hijab and go to the church!"
"Mingyue, Wan'er, Qingkite hopes that you will cover it for me together, after all, I only have you two good sisters!" The green kite said sincerely to the two.
"Don't worry! From now on, Huan'er and I will be your mother's family!" Xiao Mingyue took the red hijab and said.
Then the two put a red hijab on the green kite and sent the green kite out to worship.
After the ceremony, several people gathered together to eat a wine banquet.
During this period, Xiao Mingyue deliberately did not look at Ji Yu, and Xiao Wan has been frequently showing favor to Ji Yu, and Ji Yu had to reply to Xiao Yu's questions from time to time.
During the period, Qiao Jie, the green kite woman changed her clothes and came over to toast, Xiao Wan took advantage of her happiness to eat a few more glasses, she was already not strong enough to drink, and after a few glasses of wine, she was a little delirious, and she was a little dizzy when she looked at the people around her!
"Juan'er, you can't drink anymore!" Xiao Mingyue stopped.
moved the wine glass in Xiao Huan's hand again, but Xiao Wan desperately didn't let go, took advantage of the wine, looked at Ji Yu opposite, blushed and smirked: "Brother Ji, there is one thing, I have been hiding it in my heart for a long time, and I have always wanted to tell you...... Didn't have the courage to ......"
"Princess Wan, you're drunk, if you have anything to say, let's talk about it later!" Ji Yu said.
"I don't! I finally ...... I didn't want to wait until this opportunity to ...... Give it up!" Xiao Wan got up, her body shaking constantly.
"Girl......" Xiao Mingyue said worriedly.
Xiao Wan immediately pushed away Xiao Mingyue's hand and said to Ji Yu with a smile: "Brother Ji! I've liked you for a long, long time...... It's been a long time! You...... Do you like me?!"
A remark attracted everyone's attention.
"Ji Mou is favored by the princess, but he wants to disappoint the princess, Ji already has someone else in his heart!" Ji Yu said to Xiao Huan.
"You talk nonsense! I've never heard you mention it! Who is she? Who is he?!" Xiao Wan asked loudly.
"I have no comment!"
When Xiao Wan heard this, she couldn't help but burst into tears, and then ran out aggrieved.
Xiao Mingyue then glanced at Ji Yu resentfully, "Do you know that Wan'er has you in her heart, you shouldn't hurt people so much!"
Ji Yu looked at Xiao Mingyue and said, "I'm sorry, I just said what was in my heart!"
Then Xiao Mingyue chased out together with Qiao Jie and Xiao Qi.
