Chapter 553: The Clans Compete for the Princess
"I wonder what the princess means by accepting the princess?" Besides, he asked.
"Of course, it's to marry the princess of our clan." The jade princess raised her eyebrows and said generously.
"What? Marry a princess and be your clan's colt? And he was shocked.
"We don't call it a concubine, as long as we marry the princess of our clan, we will be crowned king according to the rules, so if His Royal Highness Qincha is willing to marry our clan, it is equivalent to accepting the prince."
After the Jade Princess finished speaking, she looked at Zuo Ling, who was indifferent, and felt a little weak in her heart, and said with a smile: "I don't know if the princess agrees?" ”
"Of course I agree, isn't it just to marry one more room? Jade Princess, look, these sisters will also be his people in the future. I can even accommodate so much, can I not accommodate a princess? Men are like this teapot, they can match as many cups as they want. Zuo Ling first pointed to the maiko, and then pointed to the teapot on the table.
Those maiko were blushing and their hearts were pounding when Zuo Ling said this. Since Madame said this, did the adults agree to accept us? Of course, it is the best to be a concubine, and she is young and beautiful, and she has great power and money, where can you find such a master in the world.
The jade princess felt half cold in her heart when she heard this, this lady didn't say anything, and her mouth was poisonous enough when she said it. How can a princess of a dignified family be compared to these maids? However, Zuo Ling not only compared them, but also deliberately put the princess behind these maiko.
"Madame's words are reasonable, I think this thing will work." Xu Langzhong of the Ministry of Industry is afraid that the world will not be chaotic.
"Nonsense, where can we decide this kind of thing casually? This needs to be studied and approved by the imperial court. Cao Delin said hurriedly.
"I'll just say that, it's a good thing no matter how you look at it, I think this jade princess is quite a good match for our minister. Ha ha. Xu Langzhong continued to tease.
"This lord is really good at talking, but His Royal Highness may not look down on me, but I have many sisters, and His Royal Highness can choose at will."
Besides, he was in a cold sweat on the side, he was not afraid of Prince Yudu's stunned head, but he was afraid of the gentle and drizzly Jade Princess, obviously, isn't this sincere to harm him? Isn't it blatantly raised this matter in front of Zuo Ling for fear that his backyard will not catch fire?
This kind of thing, you just want to mention, can't you find a secluded place and whisper it when no one is around?
It's over, I don't think I have a good life tonight, and I don't know what criminal law I will be subjected to.
Also, this Xu Langzhong is really not a thing, full of nonsense, doing everything to add fuel to the fire.
Besides, he said with a bitter smile: "The nobles can afford it, but it's useless to tell me about this, if the nobles really want to make peace with the court, they need to be formally proposed by King Warat, and the emperor will discuss it with the ministers on the court." Besides, the object of the kiss will not be me, it must be a real prince. ”
"What's this, as long as His Royal Highness Qincha has this family affair with our clan, he will be the real king." The Jade Princess smiled.
"No, these are two different things, and I have no right to discuss this matter with the princess."
"Don't be modest, you're not a minister with plenipotentiary powers, you're still at the princely level." The jade princess didn't leave any gaps, and immediately pushed back.
Besides, he is speechless, his identity is indeed the plenipotentiary representative of the imperial court, but he does not have full power for everything, and he is full of power, and he will not use this right to marry a princess of the Warat tribe to go back.
Even if he wanted to, it would be a false act of public benefit.
"Didn't it mean that His Highness had already discussed with the Tatars to marry one of their princesses? Why did you fall apart when you arrived at our tribe, do you think that the princesses of our Warat tribe are inferior to those of the Tatars? A maid sitting at the head of the Jade Princess smiled.
"Rumors, this is absolutely rumors, we have absolutely no peace with the Tatars. There is no such thing as a saying that no one can compare. Besides, he hurriedly shook his head and denied it, and the sweat on his body was even worse.
Of course, he can't let people charge himself with racism, and he can't afford to wear this big hat.
Although he came to negotiate with the king of Alta, he did not want to offend Varat and Uliangha. If there is something to be done with these two races, it is the best, and even if there is none, it is necessary to maintain the existing balance.
However, these strong clans are not good at stubble, it is useless to be good to them alone, they have to be beaten where they should be beaten, and they must not be allowed to slip through the small abacus.
Although these strong clans have a certain strength, they are still bullying the weak and afraid of the hard, as long as you have enough confidence, you can win their respect. If it is completely by currying favor or bribing, it will make them arrogant.
Besides, he hasn't reached Bansheng City yet, and he has almost offended all the three tribes, especially the Tatar tribe, and he deposed the two captains alive, although they are to blame, but no one knows what the king of Alta will think.
Fortunately, he has a similar temper with the little prince and the third lady, and the relationship is good, so he won't be in trouble for a while.
Something was already wrong on Uliangha's side, and he reprimanded Prince Yudu in full view of everyone.
Earlier, he had also forced the two armies of Warat and Uliangha to retreat twenty miles and give gifts to make amends, and the two tribes were also beaten by him. Whether they are convinced or not, the effect is still invisible, and they can only take one step at a time.
The Warat clan wants to recruit him, whether it is the Jade Princess's personal intention or the meaning of the Warat King, whether this is considered a show of goodwill, he doesn't know all this. On the surface, this is the Warat tribe wanting to change the relationship with the Ming court, but things are by no means that simple.
Trouble was coming, and he had a vague feeling that there was some kind of conspiracy in it.
If he rejects the Jade Princess, he may leave a truth to the other party, which will have a greater impact than reprimanding Prince Yudu, but such a thing as a kiss is really not something he can decide.
"How can it be a rumor, but this is said by the Khan himself, can it be false?" The Jade Princess smiled.
Besides, I was stunned, I felt a little strange, if this was the case, the third lady would not be a little impenetrable, on the contrary, she would definitely use this to tease him.
But what Princess Jade said was so true, it didn't seem to be fake, and besides, she didn't need to make up this nonsense.
Zuo Ling squinted at the situation, and laughed secretly in his heart. Hehe, besides, when did it become so popular, and all the tribes rushed to marry the princess to him?
Besides, although there are many female * admirers in the mainland, it is because he is a talented man and famous all over the world, but people outside the country do not pay attention to this.
"I didn't expect the adults to be so popular outside the Saiwai, according to the lower officials, don't care if Warat is still a Tatar princess, marry them all, anyway, the lady is virtuous and can tolerate it." Xu Langzhong of the Ministry of Industry couldn't help but continue to interject.
Besides, he glared at this guy fiercely, Xu Langzhong is this character, he is usually very arrogant, open-mouthed, he can say whatever he wants, and there is no door on his mouth at all.
Fortunately, it is not a formal negotiation site now, and it doesn't have much impact if he just talks nonsense, if it is a formal negotiation site, he has a big mouth, and it will really be a bad thing if he can't keep it. It seems that he has to find a good opportunity to remind him, don't really talk nonsense in the negotiation seat.
"That's fine, but the princess of our Warat tribe has to be at the top." The Jade Princess joked half-seriously, half-jokingly.
Marrying the princesses of all ethnic groups is nothing new outside the Saiwai, when Genghis Khan conquered a race or country, the first thing was to marry the princess of the family, once got a pair of sister flowers, Genghis Khan divided the sister flowers with his youngest son Tulei, and one married one.
Besides, I looked at Cao Delin, and now I need him to come out and say a few words.
Cao Delin immediately understood it, and said with a smile: "Since Warat has this idea, it is also a good thing, the lower officials will definitely give the emperor a chapter immediately, and ask the emperor and the cabinet to rule on this matter." ”
Besides, I was relieved, Cao Delin was still an old man, and he was transferred to the emperor and the cabinet all of a sudden, and when he arrived at the emperor, he didn't have to think about it, he must have thrown it into the trash can to finish his work.
"Why do you need the emperor's approval, we don't want to marry your dynasty, we just want to marry the princess of our clan to His Royal Highness Qincha, this is a personal matter between my father Khan and His Royal Highness Qincha." The Jade Princess smiled.
Besides, all the officials are full of black lines, can marrying a princess of different races be a matter between individuals? Think it's a marriage between small private households?
"Let's not talk about this matter for the time being, Her Royal Highness the princess won't be here specifically for this matter, right?" Besides, his face was a little dark.
"Okay, I'll talk about this later, but my father Khan said that as long as His Royal Highness agrees to this family business, he will guarantee that there will be no harm in it." The Jade Princess smiled and threw another bait.
The Jade Princess naturally came here to give gifts, not only sent the big gifts on the gift list, but also gave a lot of fresh fruits and wine from the Western Regions and various fruit wines, and also gave a thousand sheep, five hundred pigs, and two hundred cows, this gift is indeed not light.
Besides, let people accept it, and then give back a gift to the Jade Princess and those attendants, all of which are porcelain, silk, tea, and crystal salt.
Crystal salt is similar to the refined salt of later generations, at that time the processing was more time-consuming and laborious, and the cost was also high, which was very favored by the aristocracy, and the general people certainly could not afford to use this crystal salt.
The value of the gift in return is similar to that of the Jade Princess, of course, the value of the calligraphy and painting Song version on the gift list is difficult to measure, and this part can only be put aside, otherwise it is to give all the gifts he is ready to give to the princes and nobles of all ethnic groups, and it is estimated that the value of the gifts on the gift list is not as high.
The maids of the Jade Princess were overjoyed when they received the gifts in return, especially the silk satins, which made the girls love it. The tea leaves and crystal salt were confiscated by the Jade Princess, and she was ready to go back to honor her father, after all, the gifts she brought were all the blood of Warak Khan.
As soon as the Jade Princess and her party left, Zuo Ling turned around and went back to his residence without stopping for a moment.
Besides, I was worried that I was provoking anyone, and I would be in trouble.
"Congratulations, sir."
"My lord, this is a blessing from heaven."
A few officials also took the opportunity to come over and make a few jokes, and they also knew that Tatarva wanted to marry their princess, which was just wishful thinking and would not work at all, but they were also happy to see the embarrassment.
"I said, my lords, can you have some sympathy, embarrassed to fall into the well?" Besides, he said with a black face.
"Where is this, we all envy adults, and we can't wait to replace each other." The officials of the Great Honglu Temple did not forget to come over and squeeze a sentence.
