Chapter 44: Dialogue in the Imperial Garden
Although Xiao Yong likes to enjoy, he loves his daughter Xiao Meiniang very much, and after retiring from the dynasty, he went directly to the harem.
As soon as I arrived at the imperial garden of the harem, I heard a soft and beautiful sound, but with a trace of sadness, I saw a beautiful woman wearing a phoenix crown, sitting in the garden pavilion, followed by the maids and eunuchs, and in front of a disaster to the country and the people, a girl wearing a palace costume, was playing the piano.
The beautiful woman is Xiao Yong's queen Empress Zhang, and the girl is Xiao Yong's favorite daughter, the princess Xiao Meiniang.
If Chu Feng knew the identity of the other party, coupled with the surrounding countries, he would definitely be surprised that this world had many similarities with the characters and dynasties of the Northern and Southern Dynasties in his previous life.
It's just that it's not in the same time and space, and it's much bigger than the world of the previous life, and at the same time, this world is very different from the ancient times of the previous life, this world is the world of cultivators with cultivators.
"Bang Bang Bang! Hahaha! Okay! Mei Niang's piano skills are more profound. ”
At the end of the song, Xiao Yong walked out with the eunuch, clapping his palms and praising as he walked.
"Slave and maid, see Your Majesty. ”
"The concubine has seen Your Majesty. ”
"Mei Niang has seen her father. ”
Seeing Xiao Yong coming, everyone saluted, even the queen and the princess saluted at the same time.
"Get up, all stand down!" Liang Yong told everyone to get up, and then waved his hand at the guards and palace maids.
"Yes, Your Majesty. ”
The palace maids saluted and retreated, leaving only the queen and the three of them.
"Your Majesty, it seems that Your Majesty is in a good mood today, is there any good news? Could it be that the matter has been resolved?"
After everyone left, Empress Zhang and Xiao Meiniang came to Xiao Yong's side, Empress Zhang hurriedly asked, Xiao Meiniang also hurriedly looked at Xiao Yong when she heard this.
As the queen, although she does not participate in state affairs, he knows a lot of things, after all, her status is there, Xiao Yong did not hide it from her, in addition, although Xiao Meiniang is young, she still knows things, and she is more sensible, she worries about the country at a young age, otherwise she would not play sad tunes.
"Yes, although there is a way, but I can't keep my country after all, but I have figured it out, and being an emperor for decades is enough, as long as our family is safe and sound, I will be satisfied. Xiao Yong sighed, and then smiled indifferently.
Although Xiao Yong didn't care what he said, the second daughter still saw the loneliness in each other's eyes, but they knew the situation of the country, and they couldn't do anything about it, so they could only comfort them.
"What Your Majesty said is that as long as our family is safe, it is better than anything else, and this is the case in this world, we are good enough, and every day we don't know how many dynasties will perish. ”
"How many dynasties have risen, those dynasties that perished, the fate of the royal family is simply unimaginable to the concubines, Your Majesty can win us not to be implicated, the concubines are already satisfied, even if they are ordinary people, the concubines will always follow Your Majesty, the concubines don't care about the position of the queen, and I hope Your Majesty will also cheer up. ”
"Yes, father, so is the beautiful mother, although the beautiful girl is young, but she also knows the affairs of our country, we should be satisfied with this ending, no matter what others do, the queen mother and I will always support you." ”
The two daughters are both smart people, and when they heard Xiao Yong's words, they all thought that Xiao Yong had reached an agreement with which dynasty had saved the lives of their Xiao family, so they persuaded him.
"Hahaha! Okay! It's still my queen and the beautiful lady are with me! But this thing is not so easy, there is one thing that the beautiful girl has to do, in order to keep my royal family, that is, the beautiful girl is young, and she is going to leave us, I can't bear it!"
When Xiao Yong heard the words of the two, he was very satisfied with the two and smiled with relief, but then he thought that he needed to marry his daughter to the emperor of the Great Chu Dynasty, and he was a little reluctant.
Hearing this, the mother and daughter's faces turned pale, they knew a lot of things, there were many countries just to save the lives of the royal family, not only took out a lot of money, but even used a lot of royal children to give each other as playthings, so how could they not be afraid.
"What, Your Majesty, isn't it true that Your Majesty wants to give the beautiful lady to which dynasty in exchange for the safety of our royal family?"
"Your Majesty, the beautiful lady is still young, and she has never left us, so let her go to a foreign country to please and serve other old men, and the concubines are reluctant, so there is no other way?
"I beg your Majesty, leave the beautiful girl and let the other princesses go!
Empress Zhang knelt directly in front of Xiao Yong at this time, crying and shouting.
"Queen Mother, don't say it again, I think my father also has something unspeakable, since Meiniang can save the royal family, Meiniang is willing to do it. ”
"As a child of the royal family, I knew from a young age that I couldn't help myself, especially as a woman, I had long thought of this day coming, but I didn't expect it to come so soon. ”
Xiao Meiniang's face turned pale, and she quickly recovered, and when she saw the sad appearance of the queen mother, she hurriedly came over to persuade her.
Then he looked up at Xiao Yong, who was a little helpless, and said with a light smile: "Father, don't be sad, as a woman, I know that sooner or later there will be this day, but can I ask my father, is the other party the emperor of which dynasty?"
As a princess, of course, the enemies of her dynasty are nothing more than several surrounding dynasties, but the emperors of each dynasty are not young people, and many dynasties are not his own Han people, he doesn't want to marry a barbarian, although she is young, but she also knows the crimes committed by the Hu people against their own people.
In addition, as a highly civilized Han dynasty, especially the princess, is very reluctant to go to the country where the barbarians are.
"Meiniang, you can rest assured that my father knows what you think, and I will not let my daughter suffer, let alone let you go away. ”
"You should know about the Great Chu Dynasty! They rejected the Great Yan Dynasty in the north and shocked several surrounding dynasties, and their emperor was a person from our Great Liang Dynasty, and the most important thing was that the other party was young and promising. ”
"As far as I know, the emperor of the Great Chu Dynasty is called Chu Feng, he is only seventeen years old this year, and he has not yet been married, so I have discussed with the imperial uncle and asked you to marry him......!"
Next, Xiao Yong told him about the matter he discussed with the emperor's uncle, and the second daughter was relieved when she listened, especially the queen cried with joy.
"Your Majesty, really? Great, you mean, we can still see beautiful girls often...!"
"Of course, I am here to inform you now, this matter has been handed over to the imperial uncle, with the beauty of the girl and talent, I believe that I will be able to get the love of the Emperor of Chu, even if I can't be the queen, I will be a concubine. ”
"Although we are no longer royals in the future, we are also relatives of the royal family, if the beautiful girl can give birth to a prince in the future, we will not lose the country. ”
"Great, if this is the case, it will be the best ending, our dynasty is not in the hands of outsiders, according to Your Majesty, Emperor Chu is a dragon among people, and he is completely worthy of our beautiful girl. ”。
"Father, Queen Mother, ......!"
Of course, Xiao Meiniang had heard of Chu Feng, and her originally pale face knew that she was not marrying a barbarian, but a woman who was about to become Chu Feng, and immediately became ashamed.
