Yue Wang Ye has always brought two noodles, one is iron, one is silver, with a simple and unpretentious style without patterns, I thought I was used to it, but today I looked, I don't know whether it is a psychological effect or what, I actually feel a little ugly and terrifying.

I breathed a long sigh of relief, but my chest was still uncomfortable as if it was pressing against a big rock, and I turned my face away from him, but I couldn't think of the two black and white masks. I felt uncomfortable, but I couldn't show my discomfort on my face anymore, so I just said to myself: "The prince explained it like this, the logic is clear and reasonable, and I am convinced." ”

It seems to be said to him, but it is more like he said it to himself.

The prince didn't speak, just turned the teacup in his hand, the voice creaked and creaked, like a needle into the ear, a little bit of a brain understood that this was a hint that he didn't want to speak, so I had to continue: "Although Guanzhong Sheng is the land of Daqi, the control power has never been in the hands of the Emperor of Daqi; The people at the head of Guanzhong Holy Village probably also recognize their own soil emperor rather than the ministers sent by the imperial court, and the first two generations are also down, the emperor can rely on them, which is not only the praise of Mrs. Tang's rescue, but also to appease the people of Guanzhong Holy Village who have just opened the gate, but this land is the imperial land after all, where can they really come nonsense? Therefore, the reign of the third generation of Guanzhong Holy Village, the emperor is determined to intervene. ”

Not only to meddle, but also to moisturize things silently.

I said, "Letting the holy woman marry the royal family is a clever trick to surrender without a fight. If I guessed correctly, the prince and the emperor are afraid that they have already discussed, and you and I will get married, in order to let the next saint have the noble blood of royal blood in her body. ”

The prince finally put down the teacup, stopped the annoying sound, and said slowly in a low voice: "You guessed right, but the last point is wrong." Guanzhong Holy Village has been self-proclaimed for a hundred years, and all that has been retained is the original rituals, and the selection method of the saint has never been leaked. ”

"Guanzhong Holy Village is the land of Daqi, and what should be respected should be the governance of Daqi; The people in the village are the people of Daqi, and they should not be recognized as saints, but should be our unique emperor. ”

It doesn't matter how the saint was selected before, the key is how to choose now, and the emperor has to think about how to choose.

Yue Wang Ye threw out another question, and said leisurely: "Respectful and disrespectful, what I'm afraid of is this." ”

I had a smile on my face, and the words that came out of my mouth were not polite at all: "The emperor has deliberately waited for nearly forty years, isn't this why?" build bridges and pave roads, and integrate foreign ritual culture into the village; The purpose of setting up a class is also to further reverse their thinking, and this step is a steady move, and today, it is just waiting for a holy magistrate with royal blood to take office. ”

"It's not simple," said Yue Wangye, "you see the long term and thoroughly. ”

"If you step down from this game, the prince should understand that he will be seen through."

Yue Wang Ye took a few steps forward, deliberately stood in front of me and asked me: "Do you think that you and I are just a political marriage, and I am only with you for use, but not affectionate." ”

I rolled my eyes and replied quite frankly, "Yes." ”

When Lord Yue saw me confessing like this, he was stunned, opened his lips a few times, but still didn't say anything, looking a little lonely and a little pitiful.

On the contrary, I saw it, changed my position to persuade him and said: "Actually, the prince doesn't have to think too much, it's okay to talk about it today, you and I have a marriage contract, the marriage is the emperor's order, and the marriage is the identity, although the purpose is the political situation of the government and the opposition, but in the final analysis, the two of us have nothing to do with it." If you talk about feelings, tell the truth, prince, if you say that I love you now, the mountains and the earth are together, but dare to be with the king, can the prince believe it? ”

"I can't."

"That's not the end of it."

I can see clearly that the prince of Yue wants to use my identity instead of me, so I was reassured, and by the way, I indirectly expressed my heartfelt message to the emperor in front of the prince: "Don't worry, the prince is thinking about the court, towards Daqi, although she is a woman in a deep house, she will definitely do her best for the country." ”

My position is embarrassing, there is a saintess in Guanzhong Holy Village, in name only, I don't know my identity, and the people who want to come to Guanzhong Holy Village are even more unclear, and the jurisdiction is still firmly in the hands of the Tang family and the two wives of the Tang family, which is really a big disadvantage to me.

Surrender to sincerity, to the sincerity of the court, to the sincerity of the emperor, this is the only and best way for me. The court made it clear that it wanted to use my identity, so let him use it; I, the saint of the empty shelf, also made it clear that I needed a backstage support, and both sides benefited, each taking what it needed, so why not do it?

There's a weirdness here, though. I had to guard against it, so I asked the prince: "But how to explain the matter of Tang Chengjue's promotion of the military department of the Prime Minister's Mansion?" The emperor not only gave him a chance to use the right this time, but also directly let him practice with real swords and guns, didn't the matter of Mulan Qiuqiu's defense be directly handed over to him? ”

In my opinion, Tang Chengjue and the Tang family are just a soft foreshadowing for the Holy Village in Guanzhong to be controlled by the Holy Lord, and the power in his hands cannot be increased, even if he gives a false frame to fool the people, he must not add real power. And the position of the secretary of the Ministry of War, although he is a second-grade official, can really afford to hold up a high position.

Yue Wang Ye said: "The emperor ordered me to escort me this time and go to Mulan Qiuqiu together." ”

"Yes."

Lord Yue continued: "I can bring 5,000 guards from the capital. ”

"Yes."

Yue Wang Ye continued: "My position, my identity, and the Royal Praetorian Guards who obey my orders follow behind, the emperor is not afraid, and I am not afraid. ”

Seeing him look so confident, I really couldn't bear to hit him in the past, "The prince has a furrow in his chest, but I have shallow knowledge." ”

Yue Wang Ye said: "Let's read a book." ”

I stayed in this Phoenix Book Pavilion for no less than five hours with the prince of Yue, from the three poles on the sun to the moon hanging in the sky, when I went out, my legs and feet were so soft that they didn't seem to be my own, and the prince of Yue helped me a little, otherwise I would have to sit on the ground without grace.

Yue Wang Ye said: "Let's rest." ”

I obediently went back to my house, was waited by the maid to take off the hairpin ring and fell asleep, the next day will return to the palm of the lamp to call me to get up, saying that the prince of Yue has gotten up to go to the study, I looked at the dark and oppressive sky outside and almost cried without grievance.

Did you sleep for two hours? Did I sleep for two hours?

Jiang Gui is a practitioner, seeing that I collapsed on the bed like soft mud and couldn't get up, so he put the candlestick on the platform, and directly put me up, I was annoyed and rolled and did not cooperate, and I tried a few times and couldn't do anything, so I had to put me back on the bed, and also twisted the quilt corners for me to sleep comfortably. So I was satisfied, rolled around on the bed, and fell asleep again.

It is evident that women can not be messed with when they sleep.

When I woke up from a full sleep, she waited in front of my bed with a complaining face, and when she saw me wake up, she relieved the turbidity that she didn't know how long she had been holding, and helped me up to serve: "The princess can be regarded as awake." ”

"What, something?"

Jiang Gui continued to look at me with that sad look: "The prince has already gotten up two hours early, isn't the princess with the prince?" ”

I asked her a little funny: "The prince gets up early and has his own official business to deal with, what am I doing with him?" There is still a reason in the Forbidden City that the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, and the rules of our palace are not as loose as the palace. ”

He was straightforward and asked me directly: "Princess, did you quarrel with the prince?" ”

Being pointed out objectively by her like this, I don't know what to say, quarrel? It doesn't seem to be, but everyone has made it clear, your calculations and my use have reached a mutually beneficial and pure partnership, and between the two of us, the hazy and ambiguous atmosphere before will be self-defeating and vanished.

The truth I want to find is such a truth, and the foundation I want to dig is such a foundation, and removing the clouds and fog made me understand this game of chess, but I can't be a little happy.

Jiang Gui sighed, and said to me in the tone of an elder: "Although the slave doesn't know what happened yesterday, but the big thing is also a matter of our royal family, just close the door and solve it." The folk say that the husband and wife quarrel at the end of the bed, the prince is a nobleman, and the princess is a noble and decent person, how can even the ordinary people not compare. ”

I sighed with her, and I didn't know. I am married, and the prince treats me very well, and I am not qualified to play face with him. It is said that the common people are miserable, but those of us who are noble and decent and have obvious identities are more or less involuntary and even more miserable.

My face was not very good, although Jiang Gui was straightforward but not stupid, and when he noticed that something was wrong, he no longer continued the topic, but diverted and said: "Last night, when I was waiting for the princess to sleep, I turned this out of the princess's sleeve pocket. She handed the shameful chastity handkerchief directly to me, "This is a precious thing, the slave did not dare to place it without authorization, so she took it with her body, yesterday I saw that the princess was really weak, so it was not easy to ask, and today I have to trouble the princess to order, where to put such a good veil." ”

The prince meant to put it in the wedding bookcase, and I didn't have a better idea.

Jiang Gui hesitated a little with the handkerchief, and she asked: "The princess's marriage book slave maid didn't take it, saying that the princess's previous things were all cleaned up by the previous maids, and I will ask later." ”

"Didn't they explain it before they left?"

"I didn't say a word, I walked neatly and cleanly."

I pursed my lips and ordered: "In the end, it is my dowry maid, although it is all pointed to Concubine Xian now, but my previous affairs still have to be concluded." So thou shalt carry this veil to them, and see them put it in the marriage bookcase. ”

Jiang Gui was shocked by my command, "Princess, after all, it is a shameful thing in the room. ”

"I have my own plans."
