Chapter 282: Prince Beiyan
I got a glimpse of the homeland, and my soul was buried in another country. All the way from Gusu to a few months to arrive - Jinyang, this place is close to Yanmen. The team will stay here for a day, and after a short rest, she will be sent to Yanmen Pass, and then the team of Beiyan will welcome her into Beiyan.
She heard that the object of her marriage was Yeluyan, the crown prince of Beiyan. In order to show the importance that Beiyan attaches to this marriage, Beiyan specially sent the fourth prince Yelujue, the younger brother of the prince's mother, to greet him.
After dinner, Su Wan instructed the accompanying palace maid not to accompany her, she wanted to walk around the post station alone. Standing under the corridor and looking up at the bright moon, I saw the moon hanging above the heavenly river.
She couldn't help but think of many things, I don't know how my father is doing now, and whether everything is okay on the way west? Will someone like my father be embarrassed? What about the two elder brothers, where are they now without their titles? As for her...... I guess it's okay, right? It's hard for her to remember herself, and even willing to give herself another way. She must be very happy to hear that the crown prince has been deposed now.
Many miscellaneous things came to his heart, and Su Wan's heart became more and more sour. It turns out that I still don't have a firm heart enough. I still remember what happened that night when I closed my eyes, and what echoed in my ears was still what Xie Yaoguang said that day, "Su Wan, you don't have to feel guilty, I have been using you from beginning to end." ”
She didn't understand. Whether it's a father, or a brother or Xie Yaoguang...... What are these people pursuing the supreme power for, and what is so good about that power that can attract them to have power at all costs? As my grandmother said, what do you want to do with that wealth and wealth, it is better to be able to live well. What could be better than being alive?
Look at it now, the Su family has ended up like this. His father was exiled to Qianzhou, and his brother was robbed of his knighthood and could not enter the office for life, so the Su family was insulated in the temple. She had wanted to ask her father if he had considered the current situation since the day he supported the prince. Looking through the history books, who can guarantee that the crown prince can sit on the throne safely. Once the crown prince is in a position to gain the throne, it will be a nightmare for supporters and a sneer for the winner.
The moon was silent, and the shadows of the trees around her were crowded, but no one could answer her questions.
"Princess, I will leave for Yanmen early tomorrow morning, please rest early."
The voice of the accompanying palace maid came from behind her, pulling her thoughts back, and she nodded slightly and was supported back by the palace maid.
The next day, Su Wan set off to bid farewell to Jinyang and head to Yanmen. Little did she know that she would embark on a different path after parting.
From Jinyang all the way to Yanmen, the Washe was gradually replaced by barren grass, cattle and sheep, and the sky was cloudless, and occasionally you could see the yellow sand flying in the distance, hovering and dissipating in the wind. At noon, the team finally arrived at Yanmen.
Although the mantle can be seen everywhere in the Yanmen at this moment, the group felt a solemn atmosphere when they stepped in. Even the envoy of Beiyan did not come out to greet Su Wan, Beiyan is really against etiquette, and it is clearly disrespectful to the calendar.
Hearing this, Su Wan was not annoyed, but ordered someone to invite the Yanmen guards to come and meet.
"The last general will meet Princess Changping." Now stationed in Yanmen is the deputy general under Ye Linchen's account, named Yan Chen. He bowed respectfully to Su Wan and spoke softly.
"General Yan doesn't have to be polite...... The palace ......" was only half of the words, and Su Wan suddenly didn't know how to say it, and after a pause, he said, "Dare to ask General Yan what happened to this Yanmen?" Why did I come all the way to see the atmosphere so solemn? ”
Hearing this, Yan Chen hesitated and hesitated for a while before bowing down and saying, "This ...... Since you asked, princess. The last general will not dare to deceive you. Recently, there have been frequent bandits in Yanmen and the grassland tribes have joined forces to frequently harass the people of Yanmen and even the nearby Beiyan, and we are worried that the grassland tribes will do something in the marriage between the two countries, so we dare not relax and hope that the princess will forgive me. ”
"Then have you ever reported to the court?" After roughly understanding the situation, Su Wan showed surprise on his face. I didn't expect that my marriage would be so unsmooth and add to such a turmoil.
"Naturally...... However, the fastest speed will take ten days to reach Yanmen. After thinking for a while, Yan Chen saw Su Wan's face and sighed in surprise: "Don't worry, princess." His Royal Highness King Ding had already arranged all the defenses before he went back, and there would be no big problems. ”
After taking a deep breath, Su Wan looked at Yan Chen and raised his lips and smiled. "Since Beiyan is also deeply harassed, the matter of wanting to marry should be postponed for the time being. Is there anything I can do to help?, as a princess, I should also have responsibilities that I have to bear, and I want to do my part for them. ”
"Princess, you can take care of yourself, and let the end do other things. Princess, you haven't rested yet. The last general will not bother and take his leave. After saying that, he clenched his fists and turned around and strode away. For this princess, although it was the first time they met, Yan Chen still had a good impression of her.
After sending Yan Chen away, Su Wan still dismissed the palace maid who was waiting, leaning against the window and looking into the distance, as she looked at it, it seemed that the grassland was vast and the mountains were undulating. When I was a child, I heard my father say that it was Yongning Hou - Li Qi had sent many envoys to the grassland, and he only single-handedly stirred up the suspicions of the grassland tribes, and finally fell apart.
And now these disintegrated tribes have gathered together to fight against the Great Calendar and the Northern Yan? And she was also trapped in Yanmen because of this, if Li Qi Li Hou Ye was here, she thought that maybe those grassland people would retreat. But it's a pity that many years ago...... The Marquis of Yongning resigned for various reasons, avoiding the world and ignoring the government.
I remember what my father told her the most was that Yongning Hou was stubborn and extremely ignorant. For the sake of the so-called affection, why leave behind a good career?
After staying in the house for a long time, I can't help but feel bored. Su Wan put on a lynx fur and walked out, lifting his skirt and picking up the steps on the tower, and as soon as he reached the corner, he heard a muffled laugh. She turned her head to look at the source of the voice, a hint of anger on her face.
"You're the princess of Changping?" The man looked Su Wan up and down in a bearded suit, and after a while, his eyes showed disdain, and he laughed: "Aren't you anything special?" How can I get Brother Wang to tell me again and again to be careful about your safety. I thought you were a stunning beauty, which made Brother Wang so concerned. ”
Glancing at the other party, Su Wan suppressed his anger and spoke softly, "Fourth prince, I don't know why your brother Wang ordered this. However, since he said so, he naturally had his reasons. ”
"Well, you have a point. But this Yanmen is about to be chaotic? Aren't you afraid? Touching his chin, Yelujue still looked at Su Wan with disdain. He really couldn't understand why Brother Wang ordered him to take care of Su Wan for a good life, and not let him bear the trust of the old man.
