Chapter 415: Si Xiayi's marriage
After a long day of negotiations between the two sides, the truce and peace have already taken shape.
This time, Dongyi ceded the land and paid compensation, because it was the side that provoked the war, and the loss was not small. The officials dispersed, and Song Yuchen was about to leave, but an official from Dongyi stopped Song Yuchen: "Lord Wang, please stay." ”
Song Yuchen turned his head: "What's the matter?" ”
The official smiled, nodded and leaned in front of Song Yuchen: "Lord Wang, presumably on the battlefield that day, you have already seen our princess of Dongyi?" ”
Song Yuchen heard this and thought about it. Although Si Xiayi was covered with a veil that day, the veil behind it was knocked off by Song Yuchen. Therefore, Song Yuchen has seen her.
Speaking of which, in the eyes of other men, Si Xiayi should also be a beauty. It's a pity that Song Yuchen doesn't have a good impression of her.
Not to mention what she looks like, but with Si Xiayi's own strength, she provoked a war between the two countries, which led to Dongyi's land cession and reparations, which can prove how stupid she is.
If it weren't for her royal blood, such a woman would probably not have a good life among the people.
Beauty and other things coexist, and that would be a woman's advantage; But if a woman only has beauty, then if she can't meet a good man, she will be down to the dust.
"Hmm." Song Yuchen recalled Si Xiayi and nodded lightly: "I've seen it." ”
"Speaking of which, our princess is also one of the best beauties in Dongyi Country. Many of Dongyi's kings and grandsons like Princess Xia Yi, but she just can't look at it. ”
"So, what do you want to say?" Song Yuchen asked.
"This time, although Dongyi was defeated, but the princess was on the horse that day, although the prince was wearing a mask, the princess saw it from afar, and she still fell in love with the prince at first sight."
"Our princess is reasonable and knows that whether it is in Tianqi or Dongyi, the royal family is noble, and polygamy is the norm. Now that Dongyi and Tianqi have negotiated peace this time, why don't we both become a good thing again? ”
"My lord, do you mean ......" Song Yuchen turned his head sideways, and there was an elusive emotion in his eyes.
"Yes." The official nodded: "Lord Wang, what do you think?" ”
The corners of Song Yuchen's lips were lightly hooked, with a little coldness. This Dongyi princess has repeatedly sent people to harass the Tianqi border and personally led troops to the battlefield, which has already surprised him, and now, she has made her ministers make such a request.
How outrageous can this princess be?!
"My lord, this king guesses that this matter is the princess's own idea?" Song Yuchen guessed and said: "Not only that, presumably the princess invaded the border at the beginning, just to see if the legendary Tianqi God of War is worthy of its reputation?" ”
"If you say a little more, this war between Dongyi and Tianqi completely originated from the princess's selfishness?" From the beginning, Song Yuchen was a little puzzled, how could Dongyi, a small country in Fanbang, dare to repeatedly violate the border of Tianqi and pluck the hair on the tiger's buttocks.
At the beginning, Song Yuchen thought that Dongyi had made full preparations. Before entering Honglu Temple, Song Yuchen was also ready to deal with it.
Unexpectedly, all of this is because Dongyi has a wonderful princess.
"This king is very curious, how much do the monarchs and queens of Dongyi Kingdom love princesses? Will she be safe and sound after she has buried the lives of countless Dongyi soldiers? And let you say this after the negotiations between the two countries?! ”
"It's not a secret, the princess is the queen's beloved daughter, and the monarch and the queen have a deep affection, and they only got such a daughter in their later years." The minister paused: "So, my lord, if you marry Princess Xia Yi, won't it be equivalent to gaining the support of the monarch and the queen?" For you, you don't lose. ”
"Humph!" Song Yuchen hooked his lips and smiled: "I am a good man, I will fight for whatever I want, and I don't need to marry a woman in exchange." ”
"Go back and tell you princess, there are many ordinary women like her, there are many in Tianqi Kingdom. Or stay in the boudoir obediently and not bring disaster to the country. ”
After Song Yuchen finished speaking, he turned around and walked out of the side hall, and waved his hand to the ministers behind him without looking back: "Let's go." ”
......
"What?" In the Dongyi Palace, Si Xiayi heard Song Yuchen's words, and was so angry that he slammed the vase in his hand to the ground: "He really said that? ”
"Yes." The minister who reported to Si Xiayi on the side replied tremblingly.
Although Si Xiayi is rude and willful, she is the beloved daughter of the monarch and queen after all. Therefore, in the court, there are still ministers who secretly attach themselves to Si Xiayi, trying to rely on Si Xiayi to gain a stable place in the court.
"The princess is angry." With the sound of a ping-pong vase breaking from Si Xiayi's bedroom, the inner line who reported Si Xiayi knelt down in shock.
"It's too much!" Si Xiayi was furious: "Thinking about this palace, she is also a dignified princess of Dongyi, and she is the pearl of her father, queen mother, how did she become worthless when it came to his mouth?!" ”
"Princess." The official knelt on the ground and said hesitantly: "Actually, if you think about it, it is not difficult to understand. ”
"Oh?" Si Xiayi's attention was attracted by the official, and when she heard him say this, she became interested: "Go on." ”
"He was originally the younger brother of the monarch of Tianqi and a famous god of war in Zhou Bangguo, presumably, first, there is no shortage of beauties around the prince of Tianqi; Moreover, the princess is the beloved daughter of the Dongyi monarch, if you think from his point of view, if he marries you, will he become the existence that the Tianqi monarch is afraid of? ”
"Presumably, the latter is the problem with Prince Tianqi's rejection of you."
Princess Dongyi listened to his words, and her face softened a lot.
That's right, too. Compared with a woman, glory and wealth are things that a man cares about more. After the old minister said this, Si Xiayi understood that if Song Yuchen simply agreed to this marriage today, Si Xiayi would be disappointed.
"Princess, the minister has a word, I don't know whether to say it or not." The minister continued.
"Speak." Si Xia Yi said coldly in his voice.
"Princess, in fact, Dongyi also has many good men in the prime of life, and that day Prince Qi was by no means a good type. Why didn't the princess give up the idea of marrying Tianqi far away and find her own wishful husband in Dongyi? The old minister persuaded.
Originally, he thought that Si Xiayi was just a little more rude and willful. But the recent war between Dongyi and Tianqi made him change his opinion of Si Xiayi.
What kind of cold-blooded and ruthless person would be indifferent to the death of so many soldiers and still want to marry the enemy?
"Humph!" Hearing the old minister's words, Si Xiayi smiled contemptuously: "There are only a few children of high-ranking officials in Dongyi who are marriageable. It's a pity that they're all straw bales that only talk on paper. ”
"How can the people who are going to marry in this palace be those who are mediocre and incompetent?"
