Chapter 245: I Won't Marry You

As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes turned to the banquet, the prince and princess.

Emperor Yuanqing gave birth to a total of eight princesses, except for those who died young, who did not come at a young age, and only two sat in the banquet.

Princess Yuyan, who is wearing a purple palace dress, is beautiful, charming and enchanting, and her appearance and figure are all superb. She is eighteen years old this year, although she is a little older than other girls in the boudoir, but with the eldest prince of Aesop, it is definitely more than enough.

The other dressed in light green palace clothes was Princess Duanyi, the daughter of Concubine Wan and the younger sister of the Seventh Prince. It's just that she has a mediocre appearance and a timid temperament, and when she saw everyone looking at her, she hurriedly lowered her head, her heart beating tightly.

When Emperor Yuanqing saw her like this, he was a little displeased.

If he hadn't known that Aesop wanted to make peace, how could he allow this daughter to attend the welcome banquet today?

Concubine Yu begged him before, she didn't want Princess Yuyan to be friendly, and Emperor Yuanqing also felt sorry for this daughter, so he called Princess Duanyi, who he didn't care about at all, to make up the number.

For the royal family, the princess's marriage is to win over the courtiers and balance the relationship, and Emperor Yuanqing did not feel the slightest distress. What's more, he was indifferent to Princess Duanyi, and the matter of the Seven Princes, if this daughter could be favored by Prince Aesop, it would be a big deal for him.

Istan stared brightly, and his gaze fell on Princess Yuyan.

"This is ......," he was a little surprised.

"This is Princess Yuyan, eighteen years old, the pearl of the emperor's palm." Father-in-law Lu said with a smile.

Istan's eyes were hot, and he immediately said: "This prince is here to ask to marry Princess Yuyan, if the princess can ......"

"I don't want to marry you!"

Suddenly, Princess Yuyan stood up and glared at Istan with a look of disgust.

When she turned her head to look at Emperor Yuanqing, she looked well-behaved and delicate again, and said sweetly: "Father, you don't care about Yuyan anymore, Yuyan doesn't want to marry Aesop, so far!" If Yuyan leaves, she will never see her father and mother again......"

Concubine Yu, who was already reluctant, immediately said: "Yes, Your Majesty, aren't you the most distressed about Yuyan?" Let's stay around. Aesop is so far away, Yuyan has been pampered since she was a child, and she is not familiar with life when she marries, she must not be used to it. ”

Emperor Yuanqing didn't want to agree, but in front of Istanbul, how could he directly refuse?

"Yuyan, Prince Aesop likes you a lot, you see ......"

"If I say no, I don't agree!"

Without waiting for Emperor Yuanqing to finish speaking, Princess Yuyan's face changed, and she said viciously at Istanbul: "No matter what kind of eldest prince and second prince you are, I will not marry you, you die of this heart!" ”

Emperor Yuanqing was angry: "Yuyan, how can you speak to the eldest prince like this?" ”

He also has a headache, and only this daughter makes him worry about it, but there are still a lot of problems, which makes him break his heart.

Princess Yuyan didn't let it go at all, and confronted it in public: "I'll just talk like this, so what?" Father, you have always felt the most sorry for Yuyan, but now you want Yuyan to marry Fanbang, is this trying to force Yuyan to death? ”

As she spoke, she quickly glanced somewhere, but

I saw that the man was talking softly to the woman beside him, and he was still giving her ...... Peel melon seeds!? Princess Yuyan bit her silver teeth, and a resentment welled up in her heart.

The ministers looked at each other, they had long known that Princess Yuyan had a big temper, but they didn't expect to be like this in front of Aesop's mission.

Who doesn't know that she is infatuated with the Nine Princes Lan Beichen......

But this kind of affection is taboo, it is impossible, and even they dare not talk about it. It's just that this Princess Yuyan has a posture of not marrying for the sake of the Nine Princes, and now that Prince Aesop has come to ask for marriage, what will the emperor think?

"Princess Yuyan is watching you." Xia Jinse said in a low voice, she felt the resentful gaze even if she didn't look at it.

"Leave her alone." Lan Beichen's mind was only on Xia Jinse, and he was peeling melon seeds for her.

The slender and white fingertips pinched a melon seed, opened it with a slight pinch, and peeled out the white melon seeds and put them on the plate in front of Xia Jinse, piling them up into a hill. She put them into her mouth one by one, and the food was clattering and fragrant.

"I don't think she will agree to kiss her, she will definitely haunt you in this life." Xia Jinse said while eating.

Lan Beichen didn't seem to hear her words, he just peeled the melon seeds unhurriedly, and brought another cup of tea to her lips: "Don't eat this all the time, eat too much and get thirsty, come, drink tea." ”

As if no one was showing affection, everyone looked at Lan Beichen and Xia Jinse, and then at Princess Yuyan, and their hearts were a little hairy. The Ninth Prince is about to marry Miss Xia, what else is Princess Yuyan worried about, it is better to marry Prince Aesop, and the two countries can be exchanged for peace and stability.

Istan looked at Princess Yuyan's coquettish appearance, but he was not angry at all, but walked up to her with the box and said in an unskilled official language: "Princess Yuyan, this bead is for you......"

With a snap, Princess Yuyan didn't even look at it, slapped the box off, and said in disgust: "Get out!" This princess is not rare for your broken beads! ”

"Yuyan, you're too presumptuous! Apologize to the eldest prince immediately! "Emperor Yuanqing finally got angry.

Now is a critical period for Daqing and Aesop, how can she be allowed to mess around?

Princess Yuyan's eyes trembled, as if she was in disbelief, and she stared directly at Emperor Yuanqing, and her eyes turned red. She looked at Concubine Yu, then at her sister Princess Duanyi, who was trembling with fright, and at Lan Beichen, who didn't look at her not far away, and suddenly raised her hand and overturned the desk in front of her.

With a bang, the cups and plates shattered, and the fruit and wine were scattered all over the ground, Princess Yuyan pushed Istan away and ran out of the hall screaming.

Emperor Yuanqing stood up angrily, unable to speak for a long time. Concubine Yu hurriedly comforted Emperor Yuanqing, and the civil and military officials didn't dare to say anything, looking at the people around them, they all felt that this matter was difficult to do.

Istan turned pale and said angrily at Emperor Yuanqing: "This prince really wants to marry, but the princess is so humiliated, is this Daqing's attitude?" ”

Emperor Yuanqing had never been so embarrassed in public, but now he could only endure it and said in a deep voice: "The eldest prince, the princess's temper is like this, she is used to being pampered." It's better for the eldest prince to reconsider, even if it is a kiss, it doesn't necessarily have to be Yuyan. ”

Concubine Yu cleared her throat

Zi Dao: "The eldest prince, Yuyan is spoiled by this palace, and may not be suitable for marrying Aesop." Why don't you take a look at Princess Duanyi? Princess Duanyi is gentle and demure, and has the best temper. ”

When Princess Duanyi heard this, she was so frightened that she fainted, she didn't dare to raise her head the whole time, and at this time she almost shrank into a ball, like a shivering little rabbit.

Not to mention Istan, even the other members of Aesop's mission looked down on Princess Duanyi.

"So ugly, worthy of being called a princess? Our eldest prince is dignified, and he is the most likely to inherit the throne of the Khan, this kind of woman is not worthy of our eldest prince at all. A group of Aesops grunted with disdain.

Princess Duanyi was ashamed and embarrassed, but she didn't dare to say anything when she looked at those vulgar and ugly Aesop people.

Istan glanced at her and said lightly: "Princess Duanyi's appearance, I'm afraid my father won't agree, so the emperor, this prince still likes Princess Yuyan, forget it." ”

Several Aesop people laughed, pointing at Princess Duanyi and laughing at her, but she didn't dare to say anything, she glanced at Emperor Yuanqing timidly, and the tears of fright swirled in her eyes, and she didn't dare to shed them.

Xia Jinse sighed, sure enough, it is not a good thing to be born in the royal family, even if she is a princess, she can't decide her own life.

If it's her...... I'd rather die than let others dictate her fate, and if Istan dared to be rude to her, she would have stunned him with a stick. But this timid and timid princess Duanyi, her fate has been predestined since she was born.

When Concubine Yu saw it, she hated Princess Duanyi even more, if she could fight for some anger, her Yuyan would not have to kiss her.

"Cry! What are you crying about? Still not down? Concubine Yu scolded Princess Duanyi.

"Yes, jade, jade concubine Niangniang......" Princess Duanyi got up hurriedly and left as if she were running away.

Standing on the main hall, Istan slowly picked up the pearl that was thrown to the ground by Princess Yuyan just now, still not forgetting his purpose: "What, has the emperor decided?" ”

Emperor Yuanqing didn't know how to answer, so he glanced at Lan Beichen for help, wishing that this brother could stand up and help him deter the arrogant and hateful Prince Aesop. But Lan Beichen didn't pay attention to his eyes at all, and only whispered to Xia Jinse, and Emperor Yuanqing was anxious to call him directly.

"The emperor's ......" Concubine Yu was also embarrassed and didn't know what to do.

She is such a daughter, she hurts like a jewel, where is she willing to suffer the slightest grievance, and even send her to kiss?

Finally, Emperor Yuanqing was in a hurry and said: "That's it, anyway, the prince has just come to Daqing, so it's better to have a good time for a few days and visit the scenery of Daqing's capital." As for the matter of kissing, I will talk about it when I am sure, what does the eldest prince think? ”

"In that case, then thank you to the emperor, then the prince will take a good look around the capital first." Istan didn't dwell on it anymore, arched his hand, and returned to his place to sit down, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Concubine Yu hurriedly signaled, and the eunuch next to her saw that with a gesture, the maid in the palace in colorful clothes who had been waiting outside the palace gate for a long time rushed in. The music sounded, and a song and dance began to be praised, and the atmosphere gradually became harmonious, and the courtiers deliberately

The atmosphere was relaxed, and soon the hall was full of laughter.

Xia Jinse didn't care much about the whole process, just chatting with Lan Beichen and eating. But when she looked at Emperor Yuanqing's face, she was not so relaxed, and she vaguely guessed that there was still an inside story.

"Lan Beichen, I think the emperor seems to be very aggrieved, waiting for you to rescue him."

"How can you rely on me every time? Is he the emperor or am I the emperor? ”

Lan Beichen said lightly, as if he was indifferent to this matter, but when he turned his head, he still explained to Xia Jinse.

"If you want to talk about grievances, there are naturally them. Aesop not only masters the iron ore resources, but also controls a part of Daqing's war horse resources. Calculating the time, early next year, Aesop should provide another batch of war horses to supplement Daqing's consumption. Otherwise, do you think the emperor will be so embarrassed? ”

I see!

Xia Jinse suddenly realized that although Aesop was a small clan, he had mastered the two lifelines of Daqing, and now he took the initiative. I'm afraid that Emperor Yuanqing regrets that he couldn't directly annex Aesop, right?

"But the emperor can't let Aesop take care of it, if it goes on like this, Isolt will climb on his head."

"Of course, there are solutions, but they have to be done slowly."

Lan Beichen glanced at Istan, who was drinking and having fun opposite, and said lightly: "No, everyone has sent it to the door, can't you seize the opportunity?" ”

The singing and dancing in the main hall has ended, and a group of palace maids have come up, still dancing.

On Iran's side, countless officials from Daqing toasted him, looking peaceful, but Iran was absent-minded, as if he had no interest in the welcome banquet.

He smiled faintly: "It turns out that Daqing likes this kind of soft dance, and this prince is bored to see it." In Aesop, only the most powerful and heroic warriors are worthy of respect and worship. ”

These words seemed to be mocking the people of Daqing for being a group of soft bones, the faces of the ministers changed, and Emperor Yuanqing was also annoyed, and he almost wanted to have a seizure, let the great prince Istan stand up and compare his brother Lan Beichen.

Keep him looking for teeth all over the ground!

At this time, Istan smiled and said, "It's really boring to watch singing and dancing all the time, why don't we play a fun game next!" I don't know if the emperor dares to agree? ”
