Chapter 314: Zara Zhen
Wan Ze and Nang Jia are so shy that they really want to run away, it's one thing to be generous, but it's another thing to let Cheng Yue choose in this way. Although Kublai Khan said that he wanted them to see Cheng Yue, in fact, everyone understood that Cheng Yue was asking them to pick them.
After Cheng Yue saw the salute, he looked at the two princesses with a smile, very embarrassed. He likes both princesses, but he can only marry one, and the entanglement in his heart is really not something that outsiders can understand.
Kublai Khan is not in a hurry, he just asked them to meet today, and it is impossible to settle down immediately, after all, there are two princesses to choose from, and it is normal for Cheng Yue to hesitate.
Kublai Khan coughed lightly and said, "Cheng Yue, you go back and sit first, and I want to ask the two princesses what they mean." ”
Cheng Yue smiled, turned back to his seat, and never said anything.
The two princesses breathed a sigh of relief and returned to their tables and sat down, but the flush on their faces could not be dissipated.
Kublai Khan was about to give orders to sing and dance, when an attendant came upstairs panting, knelt at Kublai Khan's feet, and said breathlessly: "Qiqi...... The Great Khan, Lord Ura Zhen has just arrived in Dadu and is asking to see him outside the palace. ”
"Oh? Is Zara really here? Haha, call him in, why did you come? It's time for a spanking! Kublai Khan laughed, glanced at Cheng Yue from the corner of his eye, and saw that he was indifferent, as if he didn't know who Hu Luo really was, and he was overjoyed in his heart, waiting to see how Cheng Yue would deal with it.
Empress Chabi and Empress Nanbi and Hu Luo Zhen were all from the Hongji tribe, and they were more worried that Hu Luo Zhen would clash with Cheng Yue, and when they saw Kublai Khan's appearance of wanting to watch a good show, they all shook their heads helplessly. Determined not to let that happen.
Totoku whispered to Cheng Yue: "Childe, the boy from the Hongji Rabu is here, he must have come on purpose." I think he is dissatisfied with Childe's choice of the princess first. Unwilling to be subordinate to the son, he made a special trip to find trouble. ”
Cheng Yue smiled slightly and said, "Kublai Khan didn't remind me, he wanted to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight." Hehe, I'm old, how can I still look like a child. Kublai Khan thought that I could only use weapons, and I would definitely not be able to use them. That's why I want to let the first warrior of Hongjira, teach me a lesson, so as to regain some face that I was defeated. Why bother? He didn't want to think about it, wouldn't it be even more ugly if he lost again? Bored. ”
Totoku smiled: "They dare to underestimate the child." It's ridiculous. Childe doesn't have to make a move, so I'll accompany you. ”
Cheng Yue stretched his waist and said with a smile: "If you don't do it, you won't die, they are looking for me." There's no reason to let you out. Come on. Just let me see how the first warrior of Hongjira is doing, and I have a rare opportunity to fight against people. ”
Detached his spirits perked up and looked at Cheng Yue with respect. In the past six months or so, Cheng Yue has taught him many fighting moves and principles, all of which are new things that he has never heard of before. Zhang Xiaozhong bravely crowned the three armies, known as the enemy of 10,000 people, I didn't see who he was afraid of, he was only respectful in front of Cheng Yue. Cheng Yue's strength is unfathomable. It's not something outsiders can know.
When the two princesses heard that Ara had really arrived, their faces couldn't help but change. looked at Cheng Yue worriedly. Seeing that Cheng Yue didn't seem to realize what he was going to face, he couldn't help but become anxious.
Nang Jia was really afraid that Cheng Yue would suffer, so he called his personal palace maid and asked her to inform Cheng Yue of Cheng Yue's identity.
The palace maid is a Han Chinese, called Pearl, originally the daughter of a county magistrate in Sichuan, after her father resisted the Yuan army and was killed, she was sent to the palace as a slave. Fortunately, because of the hyphenation of the literacy, it was discovered by Nangjiazhen, so that the fate of being tainted by Kublai Khan or other Mongol nobles was avoided.
Because he wanted to please Cheng Yue, in order to make up for his shortcomings in Sinology, he found many Han women from scholarly families and put them by his side, and often learned from them.
Pearl was also indirectly saved by Cheng Yue, so after hearing Nang Jiazhen's order, he hurriedly trotted around Cheng Yue's side, and whispered after giving a salute: "Slave Pearl, meet the Metropolitan Governor, the slave is on the order of Her Royal Highness the eldest princess of Lu Kingdom, and I have come to pass the word." ”
Cheng Yue saw a beautiful woman standing timidly in front of him, and said with a smile: "The eldest princess of the Lu Kingdom? You say Sangjiazhen, right? What do you have to tell me? ”
Pearl stuck out her tongue in fright, and another excitement rose in her heart. Cheng Yue is a Han person, and the only Han person who dares to call the eldest princess of Lu is Cheng Yue. She was despised in the Dayuan Palace, and of course hoped that Cheng Yue, who was also a Han Chinese, would breathe a sigh of relief for them.
Cheng Yue saw that she was cute and said with a smile: "You haven't said anything yet, let's hear it." ”
Pearl didn't care about being shy, and walked up to Cheng Yue's ear and said: "Dadu Governor, the princess asked the slave maid to tell Dadu Governor that Luo Zhen, like the Great Empress and Queen Nanbi, is from the Hongji Division, and he is going to be crowned king in the future, and he was originally going to marry one of the two princesses. The Hongjira tribe is the largest part of the steppe, and has the deepest relationship with the golden family of the Great Khan, so there is no need for the metropolitan governor to offend them easily. ”
Cheng Yue blinked his eyes and said with a smile: "Don't offend them easily? Does it mean that I should give up Wanze and marry Nangjiazhen? Did you say the last few words, or did you say it? ”
Pearl said hesitantly: "Actually...... The slave and maid added it on their own initiative. Her Royal Highness the eldest princess of Lu is very good, and the governor of the capital will definitely get along with the eldest princess, happy and beautiful. ”
Cheng Yue said with great interest: "Isn't Wanze good?" ”
Pearl hurriedly shook her head like a rattle and said, "Her Royal Highness the eldest princess of the country of Lu is also very good, but the slave maid still thinks that Her Royal Highness the eldest princess and the governor are more suitable." ”
Cheng Yue laughed and said, "You are really bold, is this also something you can talk about?" If I tell Wan Ze, you're going to be in bad luck. ”
Pearl turned pale with fright, and said eagerly: "The Governor of the Metropolitan is not that kind of person, the slave doesn't believe it." ”
Cheng Yue nodded with a smile and whispered to Pearl: "If I marry Nang Jiazhen, do you want to dowry?" ”
Pearl's face was as red as a ripe cherry in an instant, and the reason why she wanted to add those words was to hope that Cheng Yue could marry Nang Jiazhen, so that she could marry Cheng Yue, not only escaped from the Yuan Dynasty, but also found a wishful husband, she didn't want to marry into the prairie to live in a yurt and drink mare's milk. But she never thought that the little abacus she had made in her heart was broken by Cheng Yue's words, and she was so ashamed that she really wanted to find a crack in the ground to get into.
Cheng Yue saw that she was infinitely shy, and liked it very much, and said with a smile: "I know, there is nothing wrong with you planning for yourself." You go back and say to Nanggarjin, just say I thank her for reminding her so that she doesn't have to worry. Also, if Luo Zhen provokes and I accidentally injure Luo Zhen, she will help me persuade Empress Chabi and Empress Nanbi, I just have no choice, I don't mean to be prestigious. After a pause, he said, "If Wan Ze asks, he will say the same." There you go. ”
Pearl stroked her hot cheeks and stepped back in shame.
Totoku smiled and said: "Childe, Princess Nangjiazhen's marriage is really good, and Princess Wanze won't be bad, right?" ”
Cheng Yue sighed and said, "They are all poor people, but I may not be able to help them, I feel distressed." ”
Tokhtar was silent.
In the palace of the Yuan Dynasty, there were many families of so-called prisoners like Pearl, and Ali Hague's family was among them. Cheng Yue came this time, and Ali Hague asked Cheng Yue to help think of a way. Others said that Ali Hague's family was too sensitive, and Cheng Yue had to be cautious, and the possibility of success was very small.
After a while, I saw several big men striding towards me under the leadership of an attendant. The middle one, who is more than 1.9 meters tall, has a body as strong as a cow, and a pair of thin and long eyes. Although he was young, he was not small, and he ignored the ministers downstairs who saluted him, until he went to the top floor, and Kublai Khan's important ministers began to salute him one by one.
It was also the first time he had seen Luo Zhen, and he was taken aback after seeing his tower-like body, and when he looked at Cheng Yue again, he couldn't help but feel a little worried.
If he went further, he was full of nobles and ministers above him, and he was not arrogant, and saluted one by one according to the etiquette of the Mongols.
When he walked in front of Cheng Yue, Luo Luo was really stunned, looked back at Ah Shu, and said angrily: "Who are you?" Why does a Han sit in front of Prime Minister Ashu? Hurry ......up" When he said this, he suddenly thought of the reason, and his voice dropped a little, and said, "Oh, by the way, you are Cheng Yue, right?" "The voice is like a loud bell, and the voice is really not ordinary.
Luo Zhen's Chinese is quite fluent, but his accent is a little heavy, Cheng Yue frowned when he heard it, and before he could answer, he said angrily: "Is the name of the Metropolitan Governor also what you can call a little hairy child?" Who gave you the guts! ”
Everyone opened their mouths in surprise, with the status of Luo Luozhen, there were very few people who dared to scold him in person, but they didn't expect even Cheng Yue's subordinates to dare to scold him like this, today is really not in vain.
Several big men around Hu Luo Zhen were so angry that they were about to pounce on them to get rid of it, but they sneered, posed and prepared to do it, but those big men were stopped by Hu Luo Zhen.
Hu Luozhen shouted in Mongolian: "What are you doing, in front of the Great Khan, can you do whatever you want?" Come with me to see the Great Khan, and I'll talk about it later. ”
Several big men glared at Cheng Yue and Totoku angrily, and followed Luo Zhen to meet Kublai Khan.
Kublai Khan was very happy to see Huluo, and encouraged him for a long time. After that, he asked, "Luo Zhen, why are you only here now?" I should have seen you five days ago. ”
"Da Khan, it's not that I'm playful, it's because when I was halfway there, I encountered heavy rain, the river swelled, and it was muddy and difficult to walk, so it was only a few days late. ”
Kublai Khan asked, "So you just arrived?" (To be continued......)
