Chapter 303: The Intention of Recruiting Horses
Looking at Wang Yuyan's shocked expression, Zhao Xiaoxi also sighed once upon a time that this uncle's ability is really good. It stands to reason that the concubines of a country, no matter how they say, will have to go through some inspection before they will be sent to the king to be favored.
The queen mother in front of her gave birth to a daughter in the Great Song Dynasty, and she even lived in the Xixia Palace in a grand manner. There is no very, and the son born has become the head of a country. Without some means and scheming, can that woman do it?
Even sometimes Zhao Xiaoxi maliciously guessed whether the current lord of Western Xia was born to Li Qiushui. But now it seems that this queen mother, who is extremely low-key in the eyes of all countries, is still powerful in Western Xia!
Although he can't be as strong as his grandmother, he can find out from the cloth pavilion. The selection of the princess of Yinchuan this time is more of the instructions of the queen mother. If she doesn't agree, no one can decide Princess Yinchuan's marriage.
Looking at Wang Yuyan's slightly sluggish expression, Zhao Xiaoxi smiled and said, "Silly girl, when did I lie to you." There are some things that can be explained in one sentence or two, but I won't beat the queen mother to cooperate with acting in order to lie to you, right? ”
Li Qiushui didn't think about it, this time he just called Zhao Xiaoxi into the palace, and asked him about the affairs of the Xiaoyao faction, as well as the news that the senior sister who had already let go of hatred. But unexpectedly, Zhao Xiaoxi brought her granddaughter with her.
What shocked Li Qiushui when she saw Wang Yuyan for the first time was that Wang Yuyan in front of her was just like the sister who died early in the flower season in terms of temperament and appearance. This made Li Qiushui even wonder if the one in front of him was his deceased little sister.
Looking at Wang Yuyan's expression of disbelief, Li Qiushui finally said in a trembling tone: "Child, is your mother okay?" ”
If she wants to say who she owes the most in her life, then it must be this daughter. Back then, she broke with Wuyazi and went to Western Xia to become a princess, more to take revenge on Wuyazi. indirectly hurt Li Qingluo.
Hearing Li Qiushui's inquiry, Wang Yuyan's expression was a little hesitant, understanding that this situation made her more sudden than accepting Wuyazi. After all, the woman in front of her has a big identity difference from Wuyazi, a person from the rivers and lakes!
For this case. Zhao Xiaoxi could only continue to comfort: "Yu Yan, don't be afraid. You just need to know that the person in front of you is one of the few people in the world who truly loves you.
The affairs of Uncle Shi and Master are all the affairs of the older generation, and not for us juniors. You just need to understand that Uncle Shi and her old man still miss your mother very much. It's just that there are a lot of things, and she can't help herself! ”
In order to dispel Wang Yuyan's concerns. Cho Hyo-seok had no choice but to act as a peacemaker again. And for this explanation, Li Qiushui is actually very comforted. After all, she owed the girl in front of her and her mother so much!
Perhaps it was Zhao Xiaoxi's comfort that played a role, and Wang Yuyan finally replied: "Mother, she is very good now, she lives in Dali now, and her father also loves her." It's just that my mother is still a little worried about what happened back then! ”
After saying this, Wang Yuyan also felt a little cautious. I'm afraid of annoying the one in front of me. My grandmother, who hasn't seen her face until now, is so she now. You are the identity of the queen mother of a country!
Hearing Wang Yuyan's words, Li Qiushui didn't feel any surprise. If she were Li Qingluo, she would be beaten up with her parents and abandoned her like an orphan. Who doesn't hold a grudge in their hearts?
To her surprise, Li Qingluo's current life. quickly said: "Your name is Yu Yan?" And the father you just talked about, is it Duan Zhengchun, the king of Dali Zhennan? Now that you know each other, father and daughter? ”
The previous time was in the Vulture Palace. Zhao Xiaoxi mentioned something to her about Li Qingluo's mother and daughter. It's just that under that circumstance that day, Tianshan Tong's grandmother was sarcastic about her, and in the end, without saying a few words, Li Qiushui left the Vulture Palace abruptly.
It wasn't until now that she heard Wang Yuyan's answer that she thought about things roughly. quickly understood the father in Wang Yuyan's mouth. I think it is Duan Zhengchun, the king of Zhennan in Dali today, because Duan Zhengming does not like women, everyone knows it.
Perhaps it was Li Qiushui's tone that gave Wang Yuyan courage, and she quickly replied: "Yes, before the last Central Plains Martial Arts Conference, my father personally went to the villa to pick up my mother. It was also at that time that I learned my true background.
Later, after the martial arts conference ended, my mother returned to Dali with my father. On the way here, I also received a letter from my mother, informing Yu Yan that she was doing well now, so I didn't have to worry about her. ”
Several confidants who were supposed to be hostile to each other, with the acquiescence of Dao Baifeng, the girls are now safe and sound in the Dali Palace. Even if Li Qingluo wanted to fly with Duan Zhengchun again, she understood that it was almost impossible.
was able to get Duan Zhengchun to personally invite her to return to Dali with her, and gave her an official side concubine status, Li Qingluo felt that it was not in vain for her years of waiting. The most important thing is that Wang Yuyan has grown up, and she has to worry about the future for this daughter.
When Li Qiushui and Wang Yuyan were talking, Li Qinglu, who was lying behind the screen, also secretly looked at Zhao Xiaoxi. At least for now, the man in front of him doesn't seem too unusual.
But what surprised her even more was that before marrying into the palace, this imperial grandmother still had a daughter in the Great Song Dynasty. This means that she and the girl in front of her, who seems to be no worse than her, are cousin-like sisters.
Although she hid it well, the uncontrollable breathing still made Zhao Xiaoxi look at the pair of grandchildren chatting. moved his gaze behind the screen, so that Li Qinglu was also taken aback when he looked at Zhao Xiaoxi's eyes.
It wasn't until Li Qiushui also noticed Zhao Xiaoxi's eyes that he immediately understood that the granddaughter who had good martial arts skills couldn't hide Zhao Xiaoxi's ears. This also shows that Zhao Xiaoxi's current force is really far beyond that of his peers in the martial arts.
After asking everything he wanted to ask, Li Qiushui turned his attention to Zhao Xiaoxi and scolded with a smile: "Stinky boy, don't stare at the back." Someone hiding there, I'll call it out and let you see it later.
It seems that you are really low-key, the dignified prince is enough to mess around the rivers and lakes, and now you are willing to pretend to be a guard captain. Do you think that the identity of the prince of the Great Song County is a drag on you?
And you kid, do you know that those two groups of people have other backgrounds. It is even more to annihilate them to the end, you must know that for this batch of people, we in Western Xia have spent a lot of effort to carefully select them! You're not afraid that I'll get angry and leave you here? ”
Looking at what Li Qiushui said, Zhao Xiaoxi replied calmly: "Uncle Shi, the invitation you sent me seems to be in the name of a private person!" What's more, the invitation letter you sent to the Great Song Dynasty court was not handed over to me by the imperial capital.
The reason for this, presumably Uncle Shi can also guess a thing or two. The two in the palace, although they are very kind to me. But from this kind of royal family, for the sake of that chair, no one can completely trust a certain person.
If I really had a choice, I would be willing to be the head of the carefree faction. It's just that God is destined to make me a member of the Zhao family, then I should take on this responsibility, and I can't go against the sky!
As for the two groups of people that Uncle Shi said, it is understandable to consider it from your point of view. But this kind of training is too cruel! Presumably Uncle Shi should know that now the people of Xiping and the border cities can cheer for this! ”
There are some things that Zhao Xiaoxi is not afraid of being known by Li Qiushui, after all, he is in the emperor's family, and there are many things about the intrigue of the children of the royal family. He didn't get an invitation from the imperial court this time, which can already explain some problems.
Zhao Xu, who finally got some power from the hands of the imperial grandmother, couldn't even believe Zhao Xiaoxi, so how could he let other royal children participate in such a marriage? Who knows if these cousins will have other ideas if the marriage is successful.
In order to avoid this happening, when this incident does not happen, it is the most important thing for Zhao Xu to do as an emperor. In Zhao Xu's opinion, he even wanted to recover the sixteen states of Yanyun, and taking Western Xia was naturally one of his goals.
It's just that the rice has to be eaten in one bite, and you will definitely not be able to eat a big fat man. The top priority, Zhao Xu's greatest wish, is to recover the sixteen states of Yanyun. As for the Western Xia, it was put later. After taking the sixteen states of Yanyun, Western Xia was also under the front of the Great Song Dynasty.
Listening to Zhao Xiaoxi's slightly self-deprecating voice, Li Qiushui also frowned a little and said quickly: "Listen to what you kid mean, your official family has never really allied with us, so you are not afraid that we will unite with Da Liao?" ”
Regarding Li Qiushui's words, Zhao Xiaoxi shook his head and said: "The emperor's thoughts, how can I guess them casually." As for the True Alliance, does the Queen Mother think it's possible? Between countries, interests always come first.
A mere covenant or marriage is never an insurance alliance. Most importantly, human greed is never-ending. And the same is true of the emperor's expansionist ambitions, I don't believe it, your son didn't think about embezzling the Central Plains.
This time, your son invited the princes of all countries to participate in the conscription, and it seems that he has sold it like everyone. But you didn't expect that no matter whether you choose the Great Song Dynasty or the Great Liao, you will inevitably form a hostile relationship with the losing side.
If you really want to solve the current problems faced by Western Xia, you can't buy permanent peace by sacrificing the happiness of a girl alone. And I've seen that it's humiliating to treat your loved ones as if they were commodities and let others pick them. ”
I didn't know that the person hiding behind the screen was Li Qinglu, but Zhao Xiaoxi's most disgusting thing was the trick of kissing. Every time there was a dispute between Fanbang and the Central Plains Empire, most of them adopted a friendly approach to resolve the conflict.
But such harmony often only brings short-term peace. Anyone who feels insulted will start a war for the humiliation suffered by the Japanese relatives when their strength grows. In this way, how can a woman who is close to her own country? (To be continued......)
