Chapter 166: Zhu Dan's Horse

Yang Mubai regards the mediocre marriage as a top priority. She told Pei Shengyuan about Pingping's wishes, hoping that he could find a way to stop Pingping.

Pei Shengyuan agreed with Ping Ping's opinion.

"Mu Mu, since they are in love, why don't we fulfill it? If you are worried that Pingping will be bullied when you marry Yuanyuan, and let Prince Zhudan go to the capital to be a concubine, wouldn't you have the best of both worlds? ”

Yang Mubai said: "Your Majesty, we don't know the details of foreign princes. I'm afraid it's not appropriate to summon him here so rashly? and will affect his foundation in his own country. ”

Pei Shengyuan said with a smile: "Mu Mu, we can recruit him over, live for a few years, understand his character clearly, and then let him return to China." Even if he marries far away, he doesn't dare to bully mediocre, don't worry! ”

Yang Mubai saw that no one supported her, so she had to do what they wanted.

Prince Zhudan also received Pei Shengyuan's edict and rushed to the imperial capital from Tubo. For the sake of his reputation, Yang Mubai announced that he would let Prince Zhudan come over to teach his own music.

Ping Ping is calm about her overly cautious attitude. She neither agrees nor opposes. When Zhu Dan came, she also did her usual activities, and she would go to see Zhu Dan every day to cultivate her feelings.

Zhu Dan's attitude towards mediocrity has changed greatly, he no longer resists, and has become extremely humble to the point of flattery. As long as it is Pingping's request, he tries his best to meet it, and sometimes he will tease Pingping and make her laugh.

Looking at the two people who were getting closer and closer, Yang Mubai's opposition position wavered.

Maybe she's wrong, they seem to be compatible, similar in temperament, like-minded, and she hasn't seen Pingping have such a passion for anyone.

Completely looks like a little daughter in love.

Looking at Prince Zhudan again, he has an outstanding appearance, a gentle and polite temperament, and is very caring for mediocre. Perhaps, he can really give Pingping happiness!

On the day Prince Zhudan entered the palace, Pingping went to see him.

Ping Ping retreated from everyone and smiled like a spring breeze.

She asked, "Prince Zhudan, I haven't seen you for a long time, don't come to harm!" ”

After the prince of Zhu Dan saluted, he said: "Prince Jincheng, don't come unharmed." After returning to China, I missed the princess. I took the liberty to come to ask for marriage today, hoping not to scare the princess. ”

Ping Ping said with a smile: "It's not presumptuous at all, it's an honor." ”

She sat on a stone bench in the garden, and Prince Zhudan stood aside. Ping Ping said: "Prince Zhudan, please take a seat." There are some things I want to talk to you about today. ”

Prince Zhudan sat calmly aside.

Pingping smiled and asked, "Prince Zhudan, why did you suddenly change your mind?" What about your sweetheart? ”

Prince Zhushan said: "Princess Jincheng is right, you are indeed the most suitable person for me. ”

Ping Ping said: "It's not that I'm the best for you, it's that my identity is the best for you." ”

Prince Zhudan said: "The princess is right. ”

"So what will you do in the future?"

Prince Zhudan said seriously: "I will not live up to you, you are my only wife in this life." I am glorious, and you are rich. ”

He said calmly: "What trouble are you in in the country of Tubo?" ”

Prince Zhudan replied: "My mother was framed and is now imprisoned in the cold palace. I want to get her out. ”

"I'm afraid that my strength alone will not be able to save your mother."

"As long as the princess is willing to help, she will definitely be able to get her out. Even if you can't now, you can definitely in the future. ”

Ping Ping pondered for a moment and said: "Tubo is far away from the imperial capital, and his strength is comparable to that of the surrounding countries. If you can get the help of the imperial capital, they will definitely bow down to you. ”

Prince Zhudan was silent for a long time, and finally said, "Tubo is not under my control. ”

Ping Ping smiled and said, "If you become the Imperial Capital Concubine, your status in Tubo will be different!" My father is not worried that I will marry far away, and he will definitely lead the guards to escort me. ”

Only then did Prince Zhudan understand that Princess Jincheng did not admire him. Instead, they wanted to use him to control Tubo and bring the surrounding countries into submission.

When we first met, she was only fifteen years old, how could she have such a meticulous mind?

And how could she be sure that he would be subject to her.

Perhaps, she had already calculated it. Find a suitable pawn among the nations to satisfy her desire for power. The imperial capital is the most powerful country, and Tubo is far from the imperial capital, and it is also considered the most powerful country in the West. She was able to play the wrong piece at the banquet, presumably because she knew him well with music. It must not be tolerated, as long as he stands up and points it out, she has a reasonable reason to contact him. Lead him to the hook.

She also knew that he was not taken seriously in Tubo and was the most easily exploited.

He couldn't help but feel sorry for himself, and he thought she was in love with him. Marrying her is to use the strength of the imperial capital to let his father release his mother and concubine.

In the end, she was taken advantage of.

Her plan has been fully deployed, just waiting for him to comply. If he doesn't follow, then his mother will definitely die in the cold palace, and he will not be in danger.

If he obeys, then everything will have to be up to her, and when she marries Tubo and uses the influence of the imperial capital, I am afraid that she will soon have the power firmly in her own hands.

What will she do with him? Will it kill him? will still treat him well and continue to use him as a pawn.

Seeing his embarrassed appearance, Ping Ping smiled and said: "Prince Zhudan, if we get married, our children will be very noble in the future." ”

This made Prince Zhudan not expect that she was willing to have a child with him? So, does she want her child to inherit the throne of Tubo?

Ping Ping didn't urge, and said softly: "Prince Zhudan, I'm going to say hello to the queen mother." Think about it! Tell me when you figure it out. ”

"Princess Jincheng, what will you do to me after you gain power?"

Pingping smiled and said, "If you become my colt, you will be my husband." Marry your husband, I will naturally treat you very well, and I will not let you have any mistakes. ”

"Just because I love Princess Jincheng, everything is decided by the princess."

"Prince Zhudan, if we can become husband and wife, we will naturally share difficulties and blessings. Don't worry! I will not abandon my husband. ”

After a month, the relationship between Pingping and Prince Zhudan has reached the point of confidants. They get together every day, talking and laughing.

Outsiders don't know what they're talking about, but judging by the way they look, they must be saying something interesting. Both of them were very happy.

Yang Mubai saw it in his eyes, and the stone in his heart slowly fell.

She asked Pingping, "Do you really love him?" ”

Ping Ping smiled so much that his eyebrows narrowed into a line, and replied briskly: "Huang Eniang, I don't know what love is." But I know that I'm happy with him. ”

Yang Mubai asked again: "Then does he love you?" ”

Ping Ping said: "Huang Eniang, I said it all, I don't know what love is? But I think he's pretty nice to me, and he probably likes me. ”

Yang Mubai sighed helplessly: "Pingping, marriage is a major event in a lifetime, and you can't take a wrong step." Otherwise, there will be no regret. ”

Ping Ping said seriously: "Huang Eniang, don't worry, I will definitely live as I wish." I won't regret it. ”

Seeing her so insistent appearance, Yang Mubai said: "Then I'll let your father give you a marriage!" You're almost sixteen too. ”

Pingping asked, "After we get married, will we live in the capital or go to the country of Tubo?" ”

Yang Mubai smiled and said, "Where does Ping Ping want to live?" Naturally, it is best in the capital, and the emperor can see you when she wants to see you. If you marry to Tubo, it will be difficult for me to meet you. ”

Ping Ping said: "Huang Eniang, I am naturally reluctant to you. But after all, Prince Zhudan is a native of Tubo and has lived in the capital for a long time, and his people will look down on him. When I marry him, I naturally want to take him as my god, and I don't want him to be embarrassed. ”

Yang Mubai asked, "Then is he willing to stay in the capital?" Or did he encourage you to go to Tubo? ”

Ping Ping said: "He is willing to stay in the capital, but I don't want him to be criticized." ”

Yang Mubai said helplessly: "Pingping, you haven't married him yet, and your heart is towards him." Huang Eniang is afraid that if he treats you badly in the future, you will have a hard time. ”

Ping Ping wondered: "Why does he treat me badly?" If he doesn't mean anything to me, why should he come to court? ”

Looking at her innocent eyes, Yang Mubai was a little unbearable.

The heart is separated from the belly, who knows what he thinks in his heart. She can only guess through what she has experienced in the past and what she has encountered. A man's heart is the most changeable.

"People will change, Tubo is so far away, the emperor is worried that you will not have a good time."

Ping Ping smiled, "Huang Eniang, you are too worried." I won't let myself be bullied by others, even if he empathizes, I will live a happy life. ”

Yang Mubai sighed and said, "The Emperor respects your choice. If he treats you badly in the future, he will return to the imperial capital. You will always be my daughter, princess of the imperial capital. ”

Ping Ping smiled sweetly: "Huang Eniang, I won't let such a thing happen." ”

Yang Mubai told Pei Shengyuan about it that night. She no longer objected to their marriage, hoping that he would grant it.

Pei Shengyuan asked with a smile, "Why did Mu Mu suddenly figure it out?" Pingping is a measured child, and the person she likes will definitely hold on to it. ”

Yang Mubai said helplessly: "Even if their husband and wife are harmonious, their love will not waver." But Zhu Dan is Tubo's unappreciated prince after all, and if he marries him, he may suffer in the future. ”

Pei Shengyuan thought about it, it turned out to be like this. It seems that this Prince Zhudan is not simple. Pingping married him, that is, the imperial capital concubine, how could Tubo dare not pay attention to him anymore. I think he knew this, so he rushed to ask for marriage. He wants to take advantage of Pingping's success.

Pei Shengyuan said: "It's better for me to just Prince Zhudan tomorrow and explore his reality." ”

On the second day, Pei Shengyuan summoned Prince Zhudan. After saluting each other politely. He asked straight to the point: "Prince Zhudan, are you sincere to Princess Jincheng?" ”

Prince Zhudan replied: "Returning to the Holy Lord, I will definitely treat her politely in the future, as long as she is unwilling, I will never do it in the next place, let alone make her sad." ”

Pei Shengyuan asked again: "Do you love her?" ”

Prince Zhudan said without hesitation: "Love! ”

"Princess Imasei has been arrogant since she was a child, and I am afraid that she will not be suitable for marrying Tubo. What should she do when she does something rude? ”

Prince Zhudan said: "The etiquette of Tubo will be taught to the princess in the future." If there is no church, it is my inadequacy, and all the faults will be borne below, and I will never embarrass anyone. Please rest assured. ”

Pei Shengyuan summoned Ping Ping again.

"Pingping, are you willing to marry Prince Zhudan?"

Ping Ping said with a smile: "Father, I am in love with Prince Zhudan, of course I am willing to marry him." ”

Pei Shengyuan asked: "But Tubo is far away from the imperial capital, and if you marry Tubo, it will be difficult to return to the imperial capital, don't you want your father to follow your emperor?" ”

Ping Ping said: "Father, no matter how far away Tubo is, I will come back to visit you once every year or two, my daughter is not ungrateful." ”

Pei Shengyuan teased: "Pingping, do you like Prince Zhudan so much?" ”

"Father said yes!"

……

After Pei Shengyuan and Yang Mubai discussed it again, they finally agreed to give marriage.

When the imperial capital gave the edict of marriage, the monarch of Tubo received the news and immediately released the mother concubine of Prince Zhudan from the cold palace. also shushed her and asked for warmth, saying that the last incident was framed by gangsters, and now the real culprit has been caught. I will definitely treat her well in the future.

Concubine Zhu Dan was grateful, and thought that the monarch had loved and trusted her again, and she was even more considerate and gentle to him.

Zhang Xiaotian heard the news and came over to find Pingping.

He asked excitedly, "Princess, do you really love him?" He said before that he has a sweetheart, and he must not be single-minded about you, he just values your identity, why do you need to marry him? ”

Ping Ping said: "Xiaotian, I know your friendship for me. I also know that Prince Zhudan doesn't treat me sincerely. But it's my choice, bless me, right? ”

Zhang Xiaotian asked sadly: "Since you know, why do you want to marry someone else?" Have you never been tempted by me at all? ”

Ping Ping thought for a while and said, "Xiaotian, you are a righteous gentleman, whoever marries you will be very happy." But I'm not a good wife and mother, and I'm not fit to be your wife. ”

Zhang Xiaotian noticed that something was wrong, and he asked, "Princess, did you plan to marry him?" ”

Ping Ping nodded and said, "We are friends, and I have my own plans to marry him." You should find your own happiness. ”

"Why?"

"Because I'm unwilling, just because I'm a woman, I lose a lot of opportunities."

Zhang Xiaotian is also an understanding person, and he figured it out in an instant. He said helplessly: "The imperial capital is prosperous and strong, and it comes from all sides. The little prince is also an aspiring person, and he will definitely rule the imperial capital stronger. Why are you not reconciled? Are rights that important? Is it worth betting on your lifelong happiness? ”

"It's not important to you, it's important to me. I have learned the way to be a king since I was a child, and I have worked hard and have extraordinary talents. I don't want to waste this talent. I won't fight with my brother in the imperial capital, but there are other places that allow me to display my talents, so why don't I try it? ”

"You're alone, I'm afraid it's hard to make it."

Ping Ping smiled: "My father will definitely send someone to go with me." ”

Zhang Xiaotian said: "I will go with you to help you." ”

Ping Ping shook his head and said, "Xiaotian, I don't allow you to do this." You should stay in the imperial capital and live well, not wade into this troubled water. ”

Zhang Xiaotian said with a smile: "You go to subdue Tubo, and you are also serving the imperial capital." As the son of an important minister of the imperial capital, I should serve the imperial capital. Princess, allow me to go with you. ”
