Chapter 681: Princess Heqin is very sad (2)
Rou Ran is a really smart person, and the three requirements she made are just right, and they will not provoke the emperor's disgust.
Especially the last one, which clearly intends to send his future child back to the Daxi Dynasty as a proton to show his loyalty to the Daxi Dynasty, and the emperor will refuse unless he is crazy.
Therefore, in the end, instead of refusing, the emperor doubled her dowry on the basis of Princess Rouran's request for items, and then sent the general of the dynasty as a personal envoy to escort Princess Rouran to marry far away.
This walk is more than half a year, as the scenery outside the carriage becomes more and more desolate, and the passers-by become more and more savage.
Rouran was full of anticipation at the beginning, and slowly became a little numb and regretful, and she even had a big rebellious thought: she didn't want to get married, she wanted to go home
But looking at the mighty send-off procession, Rouran still gritted her teeth and endured it: all this can be changed, this is her responsibility and mission.
Finally, the procession entered the royal tent area of the clan.
At this time, the scene that Rouran saw completely shattered all her illusions, there was no gorgeous palace wall, only a large tent next to it.
And the perfect husband of her dreams is an old man who is nearly fifty years old and has already married the four concubines, and his eldest son is even more than ten years older than her.
The envoy was a little unbearable to look at Rouran's appearance as if he had been struck by lightning, in fact, the age of the vassal king and his harem were not a secret on the emperor's side.
It's just that the emperor was afraid that Rouran would make some trouble after knowing the truth, so he asked all those who knew about it to suppress the matter and avoid it from reaching Rouran's ears.
Although the envoy couldn't bear to look at Rouran, who was less than twenty-eight years old, he accompanied an old man for the rest of his life.
But thinking of his mission, the envoy gritted his teeth and stepped forward to remind Rou Ran, asking her not to lose her temper: "Princess, this is your husband in the future." "After all, Rouran will beg for a living under the vassal king in the future, and the current gaffe will only make the vassal king even more displeased with him.
After listening to the words of the envoy, Rouran quickly came back to her senses, walked to the vassal king, and bowed down: "Rouran, the princess of Daxi Dynasty, has seen the vassal king. "At this time, he has not yet married, so naturally he cannot be called the husband of the vassal king.
The cloudy eyes of the vassal king swept over the gold, silver, and jewelry, craftsmen and ladies brought by Rouran, and a cloudy greed flashed in his eyes: "Brilliant princess, this king is very satisfied. ”
The vassal king's contemptuous words made the four concubines who were standing behind him and observing their future rivals couldn't help laughing.
And the attendants and maids behind them, after listening to the words of the vassal king, also had a little contempt for Rouran on their expressions.
Because the vassal king did not let Rou Ran get up, Rou Ran could only lead the group of people behind her to bend over and stand in place, she lowered her head and closed her eyes in despair, she suddenly understood that her life was estimated to be like this
The envoy was also very aware of Rouran's future situation, so when he really couldn't see it, the envoy hurried back to the Daxi Dynasty after sending Rouran to the vassal country.
Because she was a princess who was forced to marry, after Rouran married into the vassal kingdom, her status was not as high as she imagined.
She had been in the feudal kingdom for eight years, and the harsh weather in the feudal kingdom had roughened her delicate skin, and she had very few opportunities to meet the feudal king, and she had no children for so many years.
In addition, Daxi seems to have completely forgotten about her existence as a princess, and as long as the vassal does not pay tribute to Daxi every year, Daxi will not distribute any return gifts to the vassal state.
After a long time, all the people of the vassal kingdom were clear about Rouran's status in the Daxi Dynasty.
In their hearts, Princess Rouran came to the vassal kingdom with a lot of dowry, a lot of wealth, and craftsmen.
Her arrival did promote the economic development of the feudal kingdom, bringing some advanced production and technological technology to the feudal kingdom.
However, she was always the princess who was sacrificed by Emperor Daxi in exchange for world peace.
So much of her possessions were all provided by the Daxi Dynasty for peace, and Rouran was an inconsequential add-on.
In such an embarrassing situation, Rouran became lonely and numb, and was depressed all day long.
A woman who was originally twenty-three years old behaved like she was in her thirties under the ravages of life.
The vassal king was even more displeased with this Rouran, who was full of sorrow every day, and not only stopped approaching her, but also let her serve him like an ordinary girl.
And after marrying Rouran, the vassal king married a princess from a neighboring country, and was obedient to her, and occasionally when he was interested, he would let Rouran perform a dance of the Daxi Dynasty to help the fun.
Rouran has completely become a joke, and her status in the feudal kingdom is not even as high as when she was not married, and her life is full of misfortunes.
Including Rouran, the vassal king has a total of six concubines, and the rest of the women without a name are countless, plus this political marriage has nothing to do with love, so the vassal king really doesn't have much time to deal with Princess Rouran.
In the eight years that Rouran married the vassal king, she has been forgotten by the vassal king, and the vassal king feels like a servant girl to her.
And the real maidens around her were all taken in by the vassal king one by one.
The vassal king is ruthless, he only needs his purest blood.
If one of the girls brought by Rouran became pregnant, she would be punished with the most severe punishment until she died.
As there are fewer and fewer people around her, Rouran has completely despaired, she has given her best youth to the vassal king, but her youth has been ruthlessly buried in the vassal country, and life is so cruel.
Rouran lived in pain like this, unable to extricate herself.
The torture inflicted on her by the vassal king came to an abrupt end in the twenty-fifth year of Rouran, because the vassal king died, and during a hunt, the vassal king accidentally fell off his horse and was trampled on the stomach by a startled horse.
After the death of the vassal king, the political situation was also relatively clear, and his first concubine was the most prominent due to her family background. So her son Gyatso ascended to the throne and killed his other brothers and their mothers.
Only the princess of the neighboring country that Rouran and the vassal king finally married remained.
I watched a large group of slaves and childless women accompany the vassal king to his funeral.
For the first time, Rouran was glad that she was a princess who came with her, no matter from which point of view, she didn't need to be buried.
The death of the vassal king actually gave Rou Ran a sigh of relief, at least in the future, she will be a concubine, and she can live a life of pure heart and few desires.
But who knows, early one morning after the funeral of the vassal king, one of her personal maids ran back in a panic and told her that she had seen the new king Gyatso come out of the tent of the princess of Linguo.
Rouran was surprised, she felt as if she had discovered something extraordinary.
