Chapter 41

She walked alone on the shore of the sparkling lake in the armpit pool, and suddenly felt a little nostalgic for Li Yan'er. In the past, Li Yan'er regarded her as someone who cared about her very much, and she just regarded Li Yan'er as a playmate, but now that she is gone, Jincheng is a little nostalgic. The huge Daming Palace has a population of tens of thousands, and she can't help but feel very depressed when she can be so lonely.

Princess Taiping, the person in power, didn't seem to like her, and she could only go to the Sanqing Palace once in a while to talk to the Emperor Taishang about Taoism. She didn't believe in Taoism very much, just as a kind of sustenance.

In addition to thinking of Li Yan'er, the person who Jincheng thinks of the most is Xue Chongxun. Although she would never say that Xue Chongxun did the right thing in Tubo, she was very moved and missed in her heart. Every woman has a desire to be pampered and held in the palm of her hand.

If she is given a choice, will she be a good wife or an ordinary good wife and mother? Jincheng would not hesitate to choose the former. The king of a country, Zhou Youwang, the princes of the Beacon Fire Opera, just smiled for the beauty, and Bao Xiyi is very happy and satisfied, right? Even if the ending is a tragedy.

When Jin Cheng thought about Xue Chongxun, he found that he was wiser than the legendary King of Zhou You, but he had the potential of King Zhou You. Thinking of a prudent man who doesn't care about a woman is as cute as a quiet and skillful woman who indulges in madness...... A smile tugged at the corner of her mouth.

Jin Cheng felt that he was very accurate in seeing people, such as her cousin Li Longji, everyone thought he was romantic, but Jin Cheng thought that Li Longji was a ruthless person, especially for women. Just like once their brothers fought for a woman, Li Longji did not hesitate to give the woman to his younger brother to maintain the brotherly relationship...... What does it mean for a person who treats women as playthings to be sent back and forth, and a beautiful woman is just a piece of jade or jewelry to him?

In contrast, Xue Chongxun, the long-pitched black king of Hedong, did not have a reputation for being romantic, and Jin Cheng could see that he was not very good to women, but she saw what was hidden beneath the surface.

Jin Cheng stopped beside a water pavilion and bent down slightly, looking at the reflection in the water, she understood her beauty...... She said in her heart: Maybe it's their own choice. Instead of growing old and fading away from its former glory, why not choose to burn yourself at the best time?

It didn't take long for there to be an ordinary polo match in the square in front of the Lin De Hall of Daming Palace. When Kaneshiro learned about the list of contestants, he found that it was not a simple polo match, because most of the participants were from big families, and all of them were unmarried Langjun......

This is a war between Princess Taiping and Princess Jincheng.

Jincheng guessed: Princess Taiping started from the overall situation and wanted to marry herself to maintain the dignity of the royal family; Maybe she had other thoughts, such as jealousy, and Xue Chongxun was too serious about herself.

She knew about the delicate relationship, but she didn't resist directly, and obediently went when she was invited to the Lin De Temple.

The women are sometimes very fake and illusory, and Taiping does not like Jincheng, but at this time he likes her very much, and asks her to sit next to the emperor.

Brother Fen sat on the highest platform because he was nominally the emperor. The court was bustling with excitement, the ministers and nobles gathered together, and there had been no such polo match for a long time, and everyone was very enthusiastic...... On the contrary, Brother Fen couldn't help but yawn: It's all men here, what's there to see? He has no interest in polo matches, and if he watches the beauties sing and dance in the palace, he may not be so boring.

Jin Cheng quietly observed the surroundings, and finally found the place where Xue Chongxun was sitting, he was not noticeable in the crowd. In this situation, Jin Cheng remembered the situation of last year, and he faced the crowd and said: I am fighting for the princess of the Tang Dynasty.

The memories made Jincheng's face a faint flush, and the beauty was as red as the peach blossoms. At this moment, Xue Chongxun also glanced back, and Jin Cheng hurriedly moved his gaze to the court.

Last year, in this door today, the peach blossoms on the faces of the people were red. The face of the person does not know where to go, and the peach blossoms are still smiling in the spring breeze...... Maybe Xue Chongxun also guessed the purpose of today's ball game.

On the court, the sons of the family sweated like rain and fought hard, although Jincheng stared at that side, he didn't know what was going on there, who won and who lost, and he couldn't even feel the passage of time.

I don't know how long it took, but the game was over. When Princess Taiping summoned the children of those families to come to the stage to reward the property, she suddenly said to Jincheng with a smile: "You pick, who do you like, let the current one be the master for you." ”

Jin Cheng couldn't help but glance at Xue Chongxun's position, he was silent, and there was no expression on his face. Princess Taiping looked at Jincheng's expression in her eyes, her smile did not change, and she waited for her reply.

The person who asked the question was the powerful Princess Taiping, and Jin Cheng couldn't help but answer, and he couldn't refuse. Taiping smiled and groaned, looking determined to win.

At this time, Brother Fen Li Shouli was still looking around, as if it was none of his business. Although Jincheng was born to him, he has dozens of children, not to mention that Princess Jincheng was still raised by Tang Zhongzong's adopted daughter......

At this moment, I only heard Jin Cheng say respectfully: "Domeng is cared for by His Royal Highness, the body of the criminal does not dare to be arrogant, only to see who is willing to ignore the previous crimes, I have no reason to be picky." ”

As soon as these words came out, the faces of the people around him who were a little thoughtful suddenly changed color. She said modestly, which means that I don't pick, let those sons of the family choose, and whoever sees me will follow him...... But there's something in the words!

It's not a problem who looks down on her, and it's probably hard to find a man who doesn't look down on her in the whole world; And who has the guts to marry her?

In the tone of modesty, it was a naked threat.

Who is Jincheng who has a crush on him? Princess Taiping's favorite son, Xue Chongxun, the king of Hedong. That Xue Chongxun was fighting for a woman with Gao Lishi's younger brother, but he was the master of murder; and how did he deal with Princess Jincheng, not hesitating to provoke a war between countries......

If you like a woman, you have to weigh the price. Jincheng is overjoyed, but it is really not worth it to lose the life of the family and even the future of the family because of a woman. Almost all the children of the family present had the idea of retreating. This golden city is a master with needles in cotton.

Princess Taiping also tasted it immediately, and the smile on her face froze.

Jin Cheng's face was pale, and her heart was full of panic, right? After all, the woman above holds the power of the world in her hands, and the emperor is just an ornament in her eyes.

Xue Chongxun was also very surprised, he didn't expect Jincheng to have the courage to compete with his mother.

Princess Taiping's eyes showed anger, but it was not easy to attack, because Jincheng's attitude and language were not at fault, no matter how powerful Taiping was, it was not good to punish others for no reason, let alone Jinshang's daughter.

Just when he was so embarrassed that he didn't have to go down the steps, he saw a white-faced Langjun take two steps forward, hugged his fists and said, "If His Highness doesn't give up, I want to try." ”

Suddenly, all four of them were shocked, and all the ministers gathered their eyes on the man, only to see that he was long and slightly thin, with two sword eyebrows on a clean face, and only a shallow hair-like beard on his mouth, which looked like fifteen or sixteen at most. It's really a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, and this guy is probably dizzy because of the beauty of Jincheng.

A smile suddenly appeared on Taiping's face, and he said with satisfaction: "Which family's son, he was born well." ”

The young man bowed politely and said: "Chen Cui Mo, a person from Huazhou, Henan Province, his father is currently a waiter in the Yellow Gate, and the minister serves by his father's side and serves as an assistant to his father in the palace gate. ”

Taiping pondered for a moment, pointed at him and said, "Ling Zun is Cui Riyong?" ”

The young man Lang Cui Mo said: "Your Highness Mingjian." ”

There was no misery on Taiping's face, and he was silent for a moment. At this time, Xue Chongxun also pondered in his heart: Cui Riyong was not a henchman of the Taiping Party, he had worked in Dali Temple and the Ministry of War before, and he was still inclined to Li Longji before the coup d'état; After the coup d'état, Lu Xiangxian and others successively built a peace and soothing people's hearts and tried to implicate as little as possible, and Cui Riyong and these people were not core members of Li Longji, so they are all fine now, and they are still working as Huangmen squires.

Xue Chongxun saw that his mother was noncommittal, and guessed that the reason was probably not because of Cui Riyong's position, after all, it had been a while since the coup d'état, and if he married, he might be able to win over a scholar power; What really made Taiping hesitate: the Cui family is the gate valve of Henan Province, Henan Province is within the scope of "Shandong", and the Tang royal family has an unwritten rule not to marry with Shandong nobles.

The reason for this is that Li Tang and Shandong Gate Valve despise each other...... Shandong Gate Valve is very accomplished in terms of cultural cultivation, and the Li family is from the family of Guan Long's military generals. Shandong people think that the Li family is uneducated; Of course the Li family is not convinced, Lao Tzu is a royal family, what qualifications do you have to pretend?

Since the establishment of the Tang Empire, their policy of dealing with the Shandong aristocracy has sometimes suppressed and sometimes co-opted, most of the time it is both suppressed and co-opted, in short, the situation is a bit complicated, and the situation is also very complicated, when Tang Taizong often scolded the Shandong nobles in front of the ministers. Although the Shandong gate valve is not strong in politics, its social status is quite high, and many bureaucrats are eager to marry their daughters to the lintel...... They scolded in front of the emperor, but they had a good relationship with the Shandong people behind their backs.

Li Tang has never married a Shandong person, and now the person who stands up is from the Cui family, and Princess Taiping is a little difficult.

She hesitated for a moment, then turned to Emperor Li Shouli and said, "What does Your Majesty think of Cui Mo, this Langjun?" ”

Li Shouli glanced at it and said obscenely: "Yes, yes, it looks like it has fine skin and tender meat." As soon as those words came out, the people next to him heard a chill, and maybe Cui Mo, who was standing below, was also a chrysanthemum.

Taiping took the opportunity to put the responsibility on Li Shouli's head: "Today, I say that you are good, I naturally have no objection." ”

Cui Mo's face was happy, and he fell to the ground and bowed: "Thank you, Your Highness, Your Highness." ”G
