Chapter 294: Yunzi's Request
Of course, Princess Siyun knew the meaning of his smile, that is, thinking that she could still run back and forth with herself, she couldn't help but flush her face, and she glanced at him and said, "What do you think about in broad daylight?" It's cold outside, but it's still warm inside, just go down the house. ”
At that moment, the chessboard that the princess placed in the house, Lu Jinping began to teach him how to lay it out, and the common pattern was fixed.
Because this method of playing chess is completely different from his previous thinking, it is still a little difficult for Princess Siyun to learn.
After Lu Jinping finished explaining, the two began to play again, although Lu Jinping had already told Princess Siyun about the importance of playing the layout of Go, but when it came to the game, Princess Siyun soon returned to the mode of strangulation. In this way, of course, he lost to Lu Jinping.
After Princess Siyun lost, she was not surprised, because she already knew that she had no way to deal with Lu Jinping's new Go tricks, so failure was inevitable, and she could only master it if she worked hard in the future.
Lu Jinping said: "One more plate." ”
Princess Siyun shook her head and said: "Go is played too many times a day, it's easy to get tired, it's better to take a rest first, by the way, last time you said that you would have a musical instrument called ...... Have you already put this instrument together? ”
Lu Jinping said before that he was good at playing the guitar, hey, he was in a bad mood for the past two days, and he didn't decide to do it, but now after talking to Xingxing and Princess Siyun, he was in a cheerful mood, so he decided to order it immediately.
A few days later, Lu Jinping drew a sketch and ordered a guitar, and when it was done, he played a famous guitar song "To Alice" for Princess Siyun, and the sound of the guitar was different from other instruments. Princess Siyun, who listened to it, was very novel, and asked Lu Jinping to teach her. So, Lu Jinping taught her how to play the guitar.
Princess Siyun was originally good at playing the guzheng and guqin. Therefore, there is no problem in grasping the corresponding music chords, and I will learn quickly. Compared with the speed at which he learned Go, Go was mainly too abstract, but in the following days, Lu Jinping came to play the piano with Princess Siyun every day? Or play chess.
These days down. Princess Siyun can already play a few guitar songs, and she also roughly understands some layout methods in Go.
On this day, the two were playing chess, and suddenly the guards came quickly to report and told Lu Jinping that Cao Tingshi invited him to go.
As soon as Lu Jinping heard it, he knew that it must be someone from the imperial court, otherwise, the assassin would never invite himself to see him, but he could only pick up Lu Jinping. Put down the chess pieces at the moment and take your leave. Hurried to the antechamber.
Coming to the flower hall in the front hall, Lu Jinping couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw it, it turned out that in addition to a few officials of the Ministry of Rites, there were Yunzi, as well as his sister and brother-in-law, and he hurriedly stepped forward to take Yunzi's hand and said, "You, why are you here?" ”
Yunzi was also excited. looked at Lu Jinping and said, "It's a coincidence, I escorted Princess Jincheng on the way to Tubo." It happened that my father sent someone to greet him after getting the news, and we met on the road. Then, I handed the princess over to my father to take back, and we returned to Datang. ”
Lu Jinping's sister Lu Fengniang on the side smiled and said, "Why didn't you say the key thing?" Look at the prince who is in a hurry. ”
Of course, Lu Jinping knew that the key thing that his sister said was the marriage proposal. He really wanted to know the outcome of this matter, because since he met Yunzi's father on the road, he would definitely talk about it. However, judging from the smiles and groaning expressions of several of them, this matter should at least have eyebrows, so they looked at Yunzi happily
Yunzi had already blushed, lowered his head, and glanced at Lu Fengniang on the side. smiled and said: "Yunzi is thin-skinned, let's talk about it, I gave your letter to Yunzi's father, and proposed to him in person, he was very happy when he heard it, and he agreed again and again, and I also told him, Yunzi, can only be the side princess, he also expressed his understanding, saying that as long as Yunzi agrees, he has no reason to object." Then told Yunzi that after returning to Datang, he could marry the prince at any time, and when he had a child in the future, he would find a time to return to Tubo to have a look. ”
Yunzi blushed and said, "My father didn't say anything about having a child, you said it yourself." ”
Lu Fengniang smiled: "That's right, I said so, but your father also agreed, saying that this is very good, isn't it?" ”
Yunzi glanced at her shyly, turned his head to look at Lu Jinping and said, "Don't talk about this, I heard that you are very busy here, what are you busy with?" ”
Lu Jinping glanced at the officials of the Ministry of Rites next to him, since Yunzi and they did it, they should have told her about it on the way, but judging from Yunzi's expression, Lu Jinping must not have known about it yet, otherwise, with her character, she would definitely not be so indifferent, even if she knew that it was a matter of time before she married the princess, but this little girl's character is like this.
So Lu Jinping wasn't going to tell him now, he was afraid that if he said it now, she would be mad on the spot, and her face would be ugly, so she said: "You are also tired from the journey, rest first, and we'll talk after dinner, okay?" ”
"Tired, tired, tired? What's so tiring about riding a carriage? What are you busy with? If there's nothing going on, then why not go? What are you doing here? By the way, what are you officials of the Tang Rite Department doing in this town? When I asked him on the way, he wouldn't say. ”
The Ministry official smiled apologetically.
Lu Jinping pulled Yunzi and said, "Let's go, let's go to the back garden, the scenery in the back garden of this inner house is good, I'll take you to have a look, and chat by the way." ”
When Yunzi saw Lu Jinping's look, he guessed something. The smile on his face disappeared, he pursed his red lips, and followed Lu Jinping to the back garden without saying a word.
There has been no snow in the past few days, but the thick snow on the ground has not melted, and some places have stepped on dark ice, the two walked forward slowly, Yunzi originally wanted to wait for Lu Jinping to take the initiative to say, but she was a person who couldn't hide her words in her heart, so she still said first: "Is it difficult for you to have another woman here?" Look at the way you just stumbled. ”
Lu Jinping stood up and told the story.
When Yunzi heard this, he snorted and said, "Is the Turkic princess amazing?" Don't we have a princess in Tibet? Why don't you marry our Tibetans, but go and get the Turks? Did that woman charm your soul? ”
Lu Jinping smiled and said, "Isn't it just that I marry you to marry you in Tibet?" This is also the purpose for us to marry a Turkic princess. The Turks invade our borders year after year, and if the two sides can form a good alliance between Qin and Jin, they will be spared the suffering of swords and soldiers on both sides. ”
Yunzi snorted, looked at him expressionlessly, and after a while, he said, "If you want to marry, I can't help it." However, since the Turks and the Tang Dynasty will no longer fight, that's fine, but after marrying back, put it aside, and you are not allowed to be with her. Anyway, it's a kiss, and the goal has been achieved, so don't pay attention to her. ”
Lu Jinping smiled bitterly, when he was with Princess Siyun before, Princess Siyun also said that he couldn't throw her aside as a vase, but he didn't expect that Yunzi would immediately ask him to treat Princess Siyun like this. Ugly words have to be talked about in the front, otherwise there will still be excitement in the future.
So Lu Jinping said: "Yunzi, I married this Turkic princess, on the one hand, for the Turks and the Tang Dynasty, and on the other hand, it is actually because I like this princess very much." We often play chess and piano together these days, he is a kind-hearted and versatile woman, I hope you can accept her in the future. ”
"I knew that you must have taken a fancy to her, otherwise you wouldn't care if the Turks and the Tang Dynasty were fighting or not, hmph, I don't care, anyway, after you get married, you just ignore her, just marry her and throw it aside."
Lu Jinping straightened his face and said: "That's not good, you are all my women, I can't favor one over the other, let alone throw others aside, I have to make this clear to you." ”
"Then you mean to take care of her and ignore me?" Yunzi pouted and said with a straight face.
Lu Jinping waved his hand and said, "Okay, that's all it takes to say this, when will I ignore you?" Since she is my woman, she will listen to me, and whatever I say is what I say. ”
Yunzi's eyes widened, and he was about to refute, but when the words came to his mouth and he swallowed again, lowered his head and muttered: "Okay!" ”
Lu Jinping originally thought that Yunzi would be messing around like before, but he didn't expect her to obediently obey her will.
Unbeknownst to him, Yunzi had a conversation with her father alone on the way. The father knew his daughter's character, and especially told her that when she married to Datang, she must do things according to the etiquette of Datang, and the three outlines and five constants cannot be violated, Yunzi just thought of his father's words, so he nodded obediently and agreed.
Now that Yunzi has agreed, Lu Jinping showed a smile on his face, took her into his arms, and said, "How is it?" Have you missed me all these days? ”
Yunzi was infinitely shy, and the little bird snuggled in his arms like a human, and after a while, he nodded and said: "I think about it every day, I can't wait to come back early, fortunately, my father came to greet him, otherwise, I don't know when I will be able to come back." I was happy to see you, but when I heard what you said, I felt very sad, and I also knew that it was a matter of time before you married a princess, but I just couldn't accept it. I just feel sad in my heart. I don't want to lie to you either. ”
Lu Jinping was relieved and said something affectionate, and Yunzi gradually smiled.
Lu Jinping originally wanted to take Yunzi to see Princess Siyun, but after thinking about it, he forgot it, because Princess Siyun and Yunzi are both stubborn people, and it would be bad if the two of them got into trouble on the spot. It's better to marry Princess Siyun into the door first, and then let them meet when they marry Yunzi. Anyway, I had already told Princess Siyun before, she should not object to marrying the side princess.
A few days later, the imperial court sent a letter to Lu Jinping urgently, which was a handwritten letter written by the crown prince Li Longji, and also included a holy decree from the emperor, agreeing that the Khitan should be reassigned to the Tang Dynasty, and at the same time canonize the Khitan Khan as a returning prince.
