Chapter 417: Wang Jingyan's method
Wang Mang's eyes suddenly moistened. He thought to himself: What to do? The queen will not agree to Princess Jianning marrying the Huns no matter what!
"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you? Are you reluctant to marry Princess Jianning? Da Sima Yanyou said worriedly.
"Yes! Especially on the queen's side, it's hard to explain! Wang Mang cried.
"The Huns are now rampant. If you can't send the princess and relatives of your relatives, I'm afraid the Huns won't give up! Da Sima Yanyou said worriedly.
"Well, that's all. I went to convince the Queen. Otherwise, there is no other way! Wang Mang cried.
Wang Mang's high profile towards the Xiongnu issue determined the tragedy that followed.
The next day, Wang Mang went to Jiaofang Hall to tell the queen Wang Jingyan and his relatives.
"Your Majesty, what you said, the concubines all understand. The concubine hopes that you can respect Princess Jianning's wishes. Instead of marrying her to a foreign barbarian at will. Wang Jingyan cried.
Wang Mang said with a smile: "The Xiongnu are the most powerful tribe today. How can it be considered a barbarian? ”
"Why does Your Majesty always disrespect the wishes of your children? Wang Yan married Emperor Ping of Han and was widowed at a young age. Wang Ye married General Wu Han and was also on the frontier for a long time. Why can't Your Majesty choose a high-ranking official in Chang'an City to be our son-in-law? Wang Jingyan cried.
Wang Mang held the cinnamon fish meat with chopsticks, and thought: Why doesn't the queen understand my heart? Everything is helpless! Where is there a home without a country? Our Wang family has long been difficult to ride a tiger! If the previous achievements are wasted now, our Wang family will inevitably be wiped out. The wealthy nobles of the former Han Dynasty have long been looking forward to seeing the Huns in our new room. That way, they can take the opportunity to make waves!
Wang Mang continued: "Queen, our Wang family is now a royal family, and the family of the Son of Heaven is a state affair. It can't be mixed with children's personal feelings. What we need to do is to unite all our forces to build our own country, instead of being so emotional! ”
"Your Majesty, in order to achieve your own ambition and hegemony, you can kill your own son and sacrifice your own daughter!" Wang Jingyan shouted.
"Everyone knows that I even killed my two sons in order to enforce the law impartially. In fact, I am only here to uphold the majesty of the law. The reason why the world is chaotic is because the kings and nobles are careless about human life and don't care about the law. Am I for myself? Wang Mang cried.
"Okay, this palace should help Your Majesty to persuade Princess Jianning!" Wang Jingyan cried.
At this time, Princess Jianning is playing with the wild cats who have paid tribute from the Sabbath Empire in the Imperial Garden!
The eunuch said, "Your Royal Highness, be careful! The villain heard that the wild cats of the Rest Empire are extremely fierce. It's easy to hurt you. ”
Princess Jianning laughed and said, "No." It's just a little brute. I'm afraid of what it will do! ”
The little wild cat was eating salted fish on the ground, and was very intoxicated. Princess Jianning stroked its back.
The eunuch Xiao Lingzi walked over and said with a smile: "Her Royal Highness Princess Qiyu, the queen has something to look for you!" ”
Princess Jianning got up and asked, "What's wrong with the queen mother?" ”
Princess Jianning's voice almost collapsed. She thought to herself: Could it be that something happened to the queen mother? How could she suddenly summon her sons?
Princess Jianning ran to the Jiaofang Hall in a panic.
However, the queen mother she saw was there leisurely arranging flowers.
"Wang Hua! This is a pomegranate flower paid tribute to by the Western Regions. Do you think it looks good? Queen Wang Jingyan said with a smile.
Princess Jianning was stunned, and hurriedly asked, "Queen Mother, did you ask the eunuch to order Xiao Lingzi to find me, is this just for this matter?" ”
"No, Princess. The Queen Mother asked you to come today, it's something else! Wang Jingyan said with a smile.
"Queen Mother, what is so important? Say it! I still have to play with the kittens! Princess Jianning laughed.
Princess Jianning thought to herself: Could it be that I have spent too much money recently after the divorce? Or did I recently sneak to a casino outside the palace and was discovered by the queen mother? Or did I secretly rely on rabbits to eat and be known by the queen mother?
Her heart began to murmur.
"Princess. Hongu is just here to tell you about your marriage! Wang Jingyan said with a smile.
Princess Jianning was suddenly speechless in shock, she thought to herself: How is it possible? I'm so rude and willful, which son's son can look up to me?
"Mother, are you kidding? Erchen is still young, and he doesn't want to get married so soon! Princess Jianning cried.
"Really? You're twenty-five this year? Still young? Our women in the Central Plains are generally married at sixteen. If it was the era of King Goujian of Yue, it would be a crime not to marry at the age of sixteen! Queen Wang Jingyan said jokingly.
Princess Jianning quibbled: "No, Erchen doesn't want to get married, it's good to live alone!" ”
"Really? But now the Huns outside the Saiwai need to make peace with our new dynasty. I hope you can marry the Huns! Wang Jingyan said with a smile.
"Huns...... Is it the kingdom where the knights are everywhere, and the son can marry his mother? Princess Jianning asked.
She thought to herself: Isn't the queen mother the most distressed about me? Why do you want to marry me to a green-faced and fanged Huns?
"Yes! The Huns and our new dynasty have clashed many times. Civilians in both countries have suffered numerous casualties. Therefore, His Majesty decided to marry Qin and Jin with the Xiongnu! Wang Jingyan said with a smile.
"Doesn't my father like to be with his son?" Princess Jianning cried.
"Why did the princess say that?" Wang Jingyan was surprised.
"Then why, my father has so many princesses, so let me marry in that deserted ghost place outside the Saiwai?" Princess Jianning cried.
Princess Jianning's mind came to mind the scenery outside the plug:
A group of blue-faced and fanged men shouted, "The princess of the Great New Dynasty is here......"
They stepped forward with their swords in hand.
The Xiongnu Da Dan Yu grew crooked melons and cracked dates, and his face was full of meat.
Princess Jianning couldn't help but vomit for a while when she saw it.
"Your Majesty, you can't do this to your son! You've said it, Erchen is your loveliest princess! Can you bear to marry me into the Huns and give Da Dan Yu a ravage? Princess Jianning cried.
"How can you say that? O princess! It is a woman's duty to marry! How can it be considered a grievance? Besides, marrying is also for you to be the great clan of the king of the right valley! It's not for you to be a concubine. With such a big temper, what are you doing? Wang Mang said with a smile.
"I'm afraid my daughter won't be able to adapt to the customs of the Huns! In the event that King Yougu Li dies young, do I still have to marry my own son? Princess Jianning cried.
Wang Mang thought to himself: This is indeed a problem, but since it is a friendly family, it is also necessary to respect the customs of the Huns!
"That's not a problem either. The son of the king of the right valley of the Huns is not your biological son, do you need to be so serious? The mourning emperor of the former Han Dynasty also married his own aunt Fu! It's all a small thing! Wang Mang said with a smile.
Princess Jianning thought to herself: Why is my father so hard-hearted? Such a big thing is a small thing in the eyes of my father. I finally understand why my father was able to kill the eldest brother and the second brother!
