Chapter 278: Lan Lan

"And pro?"

The man in the Chinese costume frowned and said: "Since ancient times, harmony has been a means for a strong country to appease a weak state, and my Chu State is not weaker than Chen State now, why do you want to surrender your identity and let the prince marry the princess of Chen State?" ”

"It's not a kiss." Emperor Chu coughed lightly and said: "Chen and Chu have been friends for many years, and there have been many cases of marrying princesses in the past. ”

The man in Chinese clothes sighed and said, "Brother Huang knows that national affairs are not a marriage that can determine the overall situation. ”

Emperor Chu pondered for a moment and said: "My time is running out, the prince's ability and temperament, you and I are very clear, with this marriage, there is more or less guarantee that there will be no major conflict between Chen and Chu in a short period of time." ”

The man in the Chinese costume pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "Don't worry, Brother Huang, I will arrange this matter." ”

Emperor Chu lay on the couch, closed his eyes, and said slowly: "I have more than enough heart but not enough strength now, you help me look at the prince more, and look at the world more......"

Inside the East Palace.

A young man dressed only in an undershirt, barefoot, and with a white cloth over his eyes, ran around the temple.

"Don't run, whoever lets this palace catch it, this palace will be rewarded!"

Several women, dressed in light veils, hurried to hide in the hall, and the sound of laughter and exclamation was heard far away.

"Okay, you don't listen to Bengong, if you let Bengong catch it, Bengong will punish you well......" The young man said a few words with a smile, and hugged a figure suddenly.

The hall was silent, silent.

"Hey, let Hongu catch it!" The young man put one hand around the figure, and the other hand untied the white cloth covering his eyes.

Soon, the smile on his face froze on his face, and his expression changed to horror.

He let go of the figure suddenly, a trace of fear appeared on his face, and he said in a trembling voice: "Emperor, Uncle Huang! ”

The eunuchs and palace maids in the palace, as well as those women in thin shirts, also knelt on the ground, trembling and frightened, and said loudly: "I have seen King Xin!" ”

The man in the fancy dress looked calm and said, "Go out." ”

Everyone in the hall hurriedly got up and quickly retreated.

"Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, you stay." When the young man was about to walk out of the main hall, the man in the fancy clothes spoke again.

The young man's body trembled, lowered his head, and asked, "Emperor, what else is the matter with Uncle Huang?" ”

The man in Chinese clothes looked at him and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness is the prince of a country, and if you want to inherit the unification in the future, you should be self-disciplined and introspective, and you should not indulge in playing." ”

The young man nodded and said, "Ben, this palace knows, is there anything else with Uncle Huang?" ”

The man in Chinese clothes looked at him and asked, "Your Majesty intends to let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince marry Princess Chen Guo and stabilize the relationship between the two states, I don't know what His Highness wants?" ”

The young man immediately nodded and said, "It's all up to my father and uncle." ”

The man in fancy clothes looked at him, shook his head slightly, and walked out of the main hall.

The young man's face sank like water, he picked up the wine glass on the table, raised it suddenly, and his movements were slightly paused, and he asked, "Is King Xin gone?" ”

A eunuch ran in from outside the door and said, "Back to Your Highness, King Xin has already left." ”

Syllable!

The young man slammed the wine glass on the ground and scolded angrily: "What do you think, ask me what you think, you still know to ask me!" ”

"The bullshit letter king, the bullshit regent, Lao Tzu is the prince or you are the prince, why should everyone listen to you!"

"You are so capable, what kind of regent to be the prince, let the prince of Lao Tzu do it for you!"

……

The young man thundered in the hall, and the eunuchs and palace maids outside the door trembled.

It wasn't until there was no sound in the hall that a figure quietly slipped out of the East Palace.

Xinwangfu.

The man in fancy clothes sighed, crumpled a piece of paper in his hand, threw it into the brazier, and burned to ashes.

He walked out of the door and walked through the palace, and when he came to a certain garden, he paused.

In the depths of the garden, a figure sat in the pavilion, staring in a certain direction with a blank look.

He stood there and watched for a moment, then walked over slowly, coughing lightly.

The woman in white finally came back to her senses, looked at him, and said, "Father." ”

The man in the Chinese costume looked at her and asked, "Since I came back from Chen Guo, I have always seen you unwilling, what's the matter, what good things are there in this Chen Guo that have hooked my daughter's soul?" ”

"Nothing." Li Tianlan shook his head and asked calmly, "How is Uncle Huang's illness?" ”

The man in fancy clothes sat down across from her and said, "It's still not improving, but the imperial doctor says that as long as the condition doesn't continue to deteriorate, it's a good thing." ”

Li Tianlan looked at him and asked, "But what's the big deal in the court?" ”

"I can't hide anything." The man in the Chinese costume smiled and said, "Your Majesty intends to let the crown prince marry the princess of Chen State, and the imperial court will send envoys to Chen State to ask for marriage in the near future." ”

"Marrying Princess Chen?" After Li Tianlan was stunned, a trace of surprise appeared on his pretty face, and he asked, "Why?" ”

"This is His Majesty's decision, so you don't have to ask again." The man in Chinese clothes looked at her and asked, "You just came back from Chen Guo, you must also know about the royal family, how many princesses does Chen Guo have now?" ”

Li Tianlan thought for a while and said: "There are many princesses of Chen Guo, but there is only one princess who is suitable for marriage, Princess Zhao Man of Pingyang, who is sixteen years old and has not yet married. ”

"That's fine." The middle-aged man nodded and said, "If there is no marriageable princess, I am afraid that this matter will be a little troublesome, in this case, it is inevitable that there will be many dreams at night, and there will be changes later, and the envoy will be sent to set off in a few days......"

Li Tianlan thought for a while and said, "Father, I'm quite familiar with Chen Guo, so it's better to let me ......go with me this time."

The man in Chinese clothes shook his head and said: "No, you have just come back from Chen State, and you will go out for a few months, and I can't explain to your mother, not to mention, there are some things in the court that cannot be separated from you......"

"I see." Li Tianlan nodded and said, "I'll go see the concubine first." ”

The man in the Chinese costume sat in the garden for a while, stood up, walked outside the garden, and asked, "Last time the county lord accompanied the team to envoy Chen Guo, who was the team leader?" ”

The old man beside him thought for a moment and said, "It's Zhou Shilang of the Ministry of Rites." ”

"Invite him to the palace."

……

In Changning Palace, Zhao Man looked proud and said: "That Tang Ning, I still want to bet with this princess, so I won't learn to bark in front of so many people......"

A little palace maid asked curiously, "Your Highness, what did you bet with Tang Hanlin?" ”

Zhao Man said: "Let's bet on whoever speaks first even if we lose, and the person who loses must learn to bark three times in front of everyone in the Hanlin Academy, although I didn't win yesterday, but I didn't lose either, and I won't lose today......"

The little palace maid thought for a while and asked, "Why did Tang Hanlin bet on this, it's so strange." ”

Zhao Man glanced at his mouth and said, "He's like this, it's always weird." ”

The little palace maid was silent for a moment, and asked tentatively, "Could it be...... Tang Hanlin didn't want to talk to the princess, so he deliberately tricked the princess into betting with him? ”

Zhao Man thought about it, his face suddenly showed anger, and he ran out of the palace angrily.

Syllable!

As soon as Tang Ning arrived at the Hanlin Academy, he returned to his duty room, and before his butt was hot, Zhao Man rushed in angrily, slapped the table, and said angrily: "You are so bold!" ”

Tang Ning looked at her and said, "The princess spoke first, and you lost." ”

"You don't pretend to be garlic with me!" Zhao Man's chest rose and fell angrily, pointed at him, and said angrily: "You just don't want to talk so you deliberately bet with me, you bad person!" ”

"How is this possible!" Tang Ning looked at her and said with an innocent expression: "Her Royal Highness the princess is so beautiful and so cute, how could I not want to talk to Her Highness?" ”

Zhao Man looked at him in a daze, his face suddenly turned red, pinched the corner of his clothes, and whispered, "Really? ”

Tang Ning raised four fingers and said, "I'm true to Tianfa Si." ”

"Since I'm so beautiful and so cute...... Zhao Man looked at him, blinked his eyes, and asked, "Then can I be the heroine of your next book?" ”https://./13_13482/
