But in fact, among those officials and scholars in Chunnan, how many people understand the importance of mutual benefit and complementarity between Chunnan and Dongping? Luo Qin, as well as Song Yu, who came to Danyang later, probably also represent the disapproving class in Chunnanguo. Even in many people's discussions, the biggest significance of this marriage is to marry the most annoying and most damaging princess Bailian in Yuhang's social circle, this arrogant princess with a bad temper is really unlikable, even if she has a face like a fairy in the sky, she can't neutralize the unpleasant arrogance and prejudice that always hangs on her face.

The lord of Chunnan may think more about it, but he has finally found a better home for this daughter he has pampered. Dongping lord Tan Xiaopei has held the country for more than ten years, and Dongping's strength is thriving, but he is tolerant and generous in dealing with people, and in terms of character, he is even more exemplary. Even the Dongping royal family is the only family among the countries that has neither a tradition of fratricidal nor a status quo of struggle for power. Probably Chang Xinquan, the lord of Chunnan, also hopes that his daughter can learn something in such an environment.

However, from the perspective of the marriage between the two countries, it is not a good thing to get such a princess out. Originally, Chang Hongquan's suggested candidate was the now nineteen-year-old Chang Shu, Princess Jiaping. Chang Shu's personality is compared to her sister, it can be regarded as two extremes, she is gentle and soft, and she likes female celebrities and food, although she has no princess style at all, she looks like a little woman at home, but she is deeply favored by the lord of Chunnan. But when Chang Hongquan proposed it, it was rejected by the reason that the age disparity was not a reason at all in the marriage between the royal families.

Chang Hongquan is also very curious about Ye Tao, a newly rising outlier, but now Ye Tao is the school secretary of the princess's mansion, but at the same time he is one of the chief designers and construction supervisors of the "Iron City" in the west of the city that has started construction...... A series of news taken together, Ye Tao has undoubtedly become a trusted craftsman and merchant in Dongping Kingdom, has had a variety of contacts with the Dongping royal family, and has also become a busy man. With his status as the head of the mission, there really is no reason to make an appointment.

"Your Highness, the lord of Dongping is in the Fenshui Hall, please go down for tea......" After sending Luo Qin and Song Yu away, the attendants hurriedly came to report. On this afternoon, most of the Chunnan delegation was busy to death, and Chang Hongquan, as the head of the mission, had nothing to do, although this kind of meeting in an informal setting may not be what Chang Hongquan expected, but it was also a good opportunity. One exchanges ideas in private, and then on the countertop can go through those essential procedures more smoothly, but without any misunderstandings. In this respect, such informal meetings are more effective than summons directly in the halls and exchanges and representations in the presence of ministers and subordinates of the two countries.

Changed out of the formal robe of the prince level, hurriedly changed into a casual dress, took a few guards, and called the little daughter who came to Dongping with him this time and was bored in the room, Chang Huaiyin, the twelve-year-old princess of Yaning, came to the watershed hall under the leadership of the guards who had already asked the route.

On the second floor of the watershed hall are several private seats separated by the window, and the middle part is still large and small, suitable for different numbers of literati and scholars to sit and rest, and talk about books and things, but now, in the connected private seats, there are people who seem to be slightly out of tune with the environment of this watershed hall, and the hanging curtains cannot completely isolate the vigilance of those guards hiding in it. And in the middle room, a middle-aged man wearing a crab blue robe was Tan Xiaopei.

Tan Xiaopei's outfit is so simple and simple that he doesn't look like the lord of a powerful country. The crab-blue robe is carefully sewn with a double layer of muslin, although at first glance it can be seen that this muslin is very different from the materials purchased by ordinary people on the market to make clothes, and the materials of the uniforms of soldiers in the army, but the simple and people-friendly style is about to come out. Tan Xiaopei was up and down, a little luxurious, that is, a dragon-patterned jade pendant hanging from his waist with a bright yellow silk.

I don't know if it was intentional to bring the child to add such a cordial family atmosphere, or if it was just a coincidence, Tan Xiaopei actually took Tan Weiying by his side. In this slightly serious environment, Tan Weiying, who was wearing a moon-white dress, was not very comfortable, sitting on the chair and twisting around, but when she saw someone coming, she immediately sat upright, but her smart eyes stayed on Chang Huaiyin, who was as beautiful and lovely as her and of the same age.

"I've seen the lord of the country," because of the use of the ancient sub-seal, in fact, Juxian Wang Chang Hongquan and Tan Xiaopei can be regarded as nominally equal, bowing and bowing, making the two people who came out to meet in micro-clothes look more like ordinary people. The entire floor is controlled, and as long as you don't speak loudly, it's not taboo to say what you can and can't say.

"Your Highness commanded the mission all the way from Chunnan to come and send me a room of beautiful women, which is really hard." After Tan Xiaopei and Chang Hongquan exchanged pleasantries for a while, Chang Hongquan already understood that it was not ironic to say that the arrogant Princess Bailian was a beautiful woman. Maybe there is politeness in it, there are affirmations of some qualities that must be possessed by the princess cultivated by the prosperous culture and education of Chunnan Kingdom, and there is also a little hope that Princess Bailian can recognize the identity of the awakening, but that is not his irony after learning about the exaggerations of Princess Bailian along the way.

Chang Hongquan found an opportunity and said cautiously: "Her Royal Highness the princess is from a noble background, she has been dressed and eaten since she was a child, and she has a beautiful appearance, everyone is inevitably a little spoiled, in fact, the princess's heart is not bad." After getting along for a long time, you can also find that the princess is actually very interesting. ”

Tan Xiaopei was noncommittal, but asked about various opinions in Chunnan about the marriage between the two countries. In this regard, Chang Hongquan feels that it is better to tell the truth. As they were talking, all of a sudden, a guard hurried in, interrupted their chat, and said, "Your Majesty, something has happened in Jinguyuan...... Princess Zhaohua has already rushed to ......"

Tan Xiaopei and Chang Hongquan looked at each other and looked at each other. Then Tan Xiaopei instructed: "Go, go to the Golden Valley Garden." ”

It's not complicated to say. Princess Bailian was a little tired of being reminded along the way with words such as "to be a man with her tail between her legs" and so on, or all kinds of words that reminded her to restrain her temperament. And she's always used to showing that she's different. Tired when she came to the beautiful Jingu Garden, she naturally wanted to wash up and eat something raw. However, the maidens and attendants who had followed her were busy settling her huge salute before they could fully take over the kitchen and fire room from the few people who were stationed in the Golden Valley Garden of the Dongping Kingdom. The bath water with a temperature that was not comfortable enough, the fine linen bath towel with rough fibers, and the taste that she was not used to later, and the quality of the snacks was very general intertwined with her already unhappy mood, and she suddenly had a seizure.

Get off the horse! She was still thinking about when she would start to stand up and establish her status, but she didn't expect to have such an opportunity so soon. She actually ordered the servants who prepared the food and the bath water to be dragged out and beaten with ten sticks......

Although these servants are humble, they are still very clear about the rules of Dongping State's military law that do not impose on civilians, and their statement and disobedience have given those soldiers from Chunnan who have no intention of causing trouble, but it also makes Princess Bailian's temper completely explode.
