Chapter 279: Crow's Beak

Downing was a little embarrassed.

The theme of his next book has been set, and he really can't add a princess, and from ancient times to the present, there is no one like her, who wants to play the heroine with one mouth, so she has to give some gifts, unspoken rules or something.

Of course, Tang Ning is not one of those unscrupulous directors and unscrupulous authors with low morals, he will not uncover the rules of actresses or female fans, and more importantly, he will not dare to sneak.

"What's wrong?" Zhao Man saw his embarrassed look and asked, "You don't want to?" ”

"It's not that I don't want to." Tang Ning shook his head and said, "But the theme of the next book has been determined, and the princess can't be added." ”

Zhao Man didn't force him, and asked, "Then let's go to the next book, the next book is always good, right?" ”

"Yes." Tang Ning nodded and said: "Then what to write...... there is, there is Zhaojun in ancient times, Princess Wencheng entered Tibet, otherwise, write a princess and pro-grassland!" ”

"I don't want it!" Zhao Mantou shook like a rattle and said, "I don't want to kiss!" ”

Tang Ning looked at her and said comfortingly: "Don't worry, princess, our Chen Kingdom has no precedent for princesses and relatives, and we won't let you marry on the grassland." ”

Zhao Man relieved his heart and said, "Don't want it in the book." ”

"Okay, then don't write and pro-grassland." Tang Ning nodded and said: "However, we have a precedent for marriage with the State of Chu, and it is common for us to marry princesses to each other......

Zhao Man hurriedly shook his head: "I don't want to marry into Chu either!" ”

Tang Ning said helplessly: "This is not good, that is not good, in fact, Chen and Chu have not been married for many years, this time Chen Chu alliance against the grassland, will definitely find a way to stabilize diplomatic relations, it is still very possible to marry a princess......

"Bah, you crow's mouth!" Zhao Man crossed his hands on his hips, glared at him angrily, and said, "You dare to curse this princess, if you are hit by this crow's mouth, you can wait for me!" ”

Tang Ning's analysis succeeded in making Princess Bo not want to talk to him, so she snorted a few times in his room and ran out in a huff.

He shook his head a little helplessly, he is not talking nonsense, although Chen Chu and the two countries have formed an alliance, but secretly they must still guard against each other, at this time, of course, a little diplomatic means are needed to strengthen the ties between the two countries, and it is completely possible to marry a relative......

Changning Palace.

"This bad guy actually dares to curse me!"

"If you want to marry him, I won't go!"

"Bad guy, stinky guy, don't want to talk to him anymore!"

……

Zhao Man rolled around on the bed, his face was full of anger, rolled for a while, and then sat up suddenly, a trace of worry appeared on his face, and muttered: "No, what if my father also thinks so, I will go to my father!" ”

In the imperial study, Emperor Chen looked at the Hanlin Bachelor below and asked, "How is the performance of this year's new Hanlin?" ”

Bachelor Zhou said with a smile: "Back to Your Majesty, this year's new Hanlin is very diligent, there are no lazy and slacker people, among them, Tang Xiu is the most, he is well-read and memorized, his talent is amazing, and he has been proficient in the various processes in the Hanlin Academy......

The role of the Hanlin Academy is to train talents, so that the new branch scholars can become familiar with the rules of the court and the central government as soon as possible, and after two or three years, they can enter the various ministries of the court and the central government to take up real posts, and if they are already familiar with this, there is no need to stay in the Hanlin Academy.

"What you said makes sense, Tang Ning's intelligence is better than Fang Zhe at the beginning, it is rare in the world, but he is still young, and the edges and corners of his body are uneven, and it may not be a good thing to let him enter the court directly now." Chen Huang thought for a while and said: "From next month onwards, let him get familiar with the six advanced departments, and study each department for three months. ”

When Mr. Zhou heard this, his heart trembled.

Newly promoted jinshi who enter the Hanlin Academy often stay in the Hanlin Academy for two or three years, and if there is no accident, they will enter the Sixth Ministry or other real power departments in the DPRK and China.

Just like Tang Jing, he was directly transferred from Hanlin to the head of the household department, which is probably the highest treatment that a new jinshi can receive.

And listening to His Majesty's meaning, it is to let Tang Xiushu go through all six parts, and people with a little common sense know that this is cultivating talents......

He had long known that His Majesty had high hopes for Tang Ning, but he did not expect that His Majesty would actually train him as a prime minister.

Fortunately, in the Hanlin Academy, he did not make enemies with him, but it was convenient everywhere, and he couldn't say that ten years later, he would still have to rely on the other party's snort.

As he exited the study with trepidation, a figure trotted behind him.

He immediately bowed and saluted: "I have seen Her Royal Highness the Princess!" ”

Zhao Man didn't look at him and ran straight in.

Bachelor Zhou breathed a sigh of relief, Tang Xiushu left the Hanlin Academy, Her Royal Highness the Princess went to his duty room every day, he, the Hanlin Bachelor, said no, didn't say it, his heart was tormented every day, as soon as he left, Princess Pingyang also let go of the Hanlin Academy.

In the imperial study, Emperor Chen had already picked up a note, looked at Zhao Man and asked, "What's the matter, is there anything wrong with Man'er?" ”

Zhao Man rolled his eyes, looked at him and said, "Father, I heard that after our alliance with the Chu State, the enemy on the grassland has been contained, is it true?" ”

Chen Huang looked at her and asked with a smile, "When did Man'er also care about state affairs?" ”

"People have always been concerned about national affairs,......" Zhao Man ran over and said with a smile: "In this way, we don't have to be friendly with the grassland, right?" ”

"And pro?" Emperor Chen looked at her in surprise and said, "How can we make peace with the grassland, the prudent people are violent and belligerent, but we can't marry a princess in exchange for peace." ”

Zhao Man blinked his eyes and asked, "Then you don't need to marry with Chu State?" ”

Emperor Chen was even more surprised: "Why do we want to marry the Chu State?" ”

"I knew it!" Zhao Man jumped up happily and said, "Father is so good, that guy actually dares to scare me, I'll go to him to settle accounts!" ”

Chen Huang looked at her back as she ran out like a gust of wind, shook his head a little inexplicably, and picked up the piece just now.

As he turned the cantata, there was a sudden pause in the movement of his hands.

"Marriage?"

He muttered, and suddenly fell silent.

It is impossible to make peace with the grassland, but it is the practice of Chen and Chu to marry with the state of Chu, and the late empress dowager of the state of Chen was the eldest princess of the state of Chu back then.

Chen and Chu have been friends with each other for a long time, and during this period, there have been more than one marriage to stabilize diplomatic relations, this method is indeed useful for the two countries, at least to ensure that the two countries will have no disputes for more than ten years, friendly exchanges.

Now that the state of Chu is getting stronger and stronger, the friendly relations between the two countries are far less than before, and the marriage at this time can undoubtedly greatly ease the relations between the two countries, plus the two countries still have an alliance, the relationship will be more stable.

He originally didn't think of this aspect, but after being reminded by Zhao Man, he finally realized that the problem that had plagued him for many days was actually a solution.

He looked at Wei Jian and asked, "How many princesses are there to be married in the Chu Kingdom?" ”

If Chen Guo takes the initiative to marry the princess of Chu State, it is undoubtedly the greatest kindness released to Chu State, but it is still up to discussion which prince will marry him, King Duan and King Kang have no concubines, and the princess of Chu can only marry the two of them, but the problem is that who to marry the princess of Chu is another headache.

This is not just a simple marriage, but also directly related to the position of the East Palace of the Chen State, who the princess of the Chu State marries is equivalent to announcing to the whole world that the position of the East Palace has been decid......ed, but this is not in line with his current plan.

Wei Jian thought for a while and said: "Back to Your Majesty, the Emperor of Chu has no other concubines except for Empress Zhang, and Empress Zhang only has one son, who is the prince of the East Palace of the Chu State......"

Emperor Chen was stunned, if this is the case, this matter will not work, there is no princess in the Chu State, and they can't let their crown prince marry......

He shook his head, and when he picked up the piece again, his hand moved again.

He raised his head and looked out of the hall, as if he had thought of something......
