Chapter 244: Marrying a wife and taking a concubine, the best defense

Until late at night, when the celebration banquet was over, the drunk and sober soldiers returned to their tents to rest, but Lan Jing and the others gathered in the camp tent of King's Landing in the North Hall, and no one went to sleep.

Yeshuang stood behind Lan Jing worriedly, "Princess, you were busy writing the battle plan last night and didn't rest, let's sleep for a while, and the prince is here, there is a result, I'll call you." ”

"No, you don't."

Lan Jing shook his head, Ye Shuang still wanted to speak, Beitang Junlin bent down and picked up Lan Jing, walked in front of the stunned crowd, put Lan Jing on the bed, pulled the quilt, and put Lan Jing in it, "Sleep, I'll keep watch, wake you up when there is a situation." ”

Lan Jing blinked, and just as he wanted to speak, he heard Beitang King's Landing say strongly: "There is no room for negotiation. ”

Blue Mirror pouted, "Just sleep, what are you doing?" ”

After speaking, he turned around and handed Beitang King's Landing a bulging back.

Beitang Junlin stared helplessly, and the night frost who was watching was smiling a few times, and was glared at by Beitang Junlin, and suddenly didn't dare to make a sound.

From the early hours of the morning, everyone sat in the camp tent of Beitang King's Landing and waited for the results of the battle ahead, this time, except for Nie Zhan and Ye Di, who led the troops to set up an ambush at the beginning, Liang Yi was the only one in charge.

In the second half of the night, the Eighth Princess and Long Yan couldn't help but yawn, however, whoever made the slightest movement would immediately receive a eye attack from Beitang King's Landing.

Everyone was aggrieved.

Yeshuang said pitifully: "I regret a little that I persuaded the princess to go to sleep, at least when the princess is not sleeping, we can still chat and relieve difficulties." ”

"Hehe" Long Yan sneered back, "Do you think that if you don't remind you, the prince won't think of letting Lan Jing go to sleep, naΓ―ve!" ”

Night Frost was suddenly mournful, because she knew that what Long Yan said was the truth.

This night, except for the blue mirror that slept sweetly and the North Hall King's Landing, which sat there motionless like a mountain, everyone in this camp had a very hard time.

Until an unlucky guy Zhongli rushed into the camp tent and shouted "princess" in his mouth, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and Night Frost looked at the blue mirror on the bed with a sneaky eye, and unsurprisingly, the always vigilant blue mirror was woken up.

Zhongli looked at the eyes of the Shangbeitang Monarch Landing who were about to kill, and shook inexplicably, "Lord Wang?" ”

"What?"

Beitang King's Landing was still cooling off, and the content of his speech couldn't be more concise.

"When we were patrolling, we caught two stragglers of the Four Seas who were hiding in the wolf city, and we can be sure that the messages that are unfavorable to us in the city in the past few days are spread by them, and they also have accomplices hiding around the camp to inquire about our situation at any time."

Lan Jing got up and walked to Beitang King's Landing in a daze, lying on his shoulder to continue to catch up on sleep, and his voice floated, "Where are the people?" ”

Seeing that the blue mirror was about to fall asleep in a daze, Zhongli subconsciously lowered his voice, "Just outside the tent, waiting for the prince and princess to summon him at any time." ”

"Hmm" Lan Jing's chin was on the shoulder of Beitang King's Landing, "General Liang is here, we are gone, right?" ”

Beitang King's Landing rubbed the hair of the blue mirror, "Listen to you, it's gone." ”

After speaking, he turned to Zhong Li and said, "Interrogate first, sort out the information obtained, and wait for General Liang to come back and wait for him to deal with it." ”

"Yes, lord."

Zhongli turned to leave, and the eighth princess hesitated: "Imperial brother, imperial sister-in-law, you really don't plan to care about this side of things?" ”

"In his position, he seeks his government." Beitang Junlin supported Lan Jing's body, so that she could lean on herself to make up for sleep, "Since General Liang has come, the matter here is not under our control, and when your sister-in-law detoxifies you, we will go back to Yongdu." ”

The eighth princess nodded, "It's okay, the province has returned to Yongdu, and people say that the imperial brother is greedy for military power." ”

After a pause, the eighth princess said again: "My sister has something to ask for, and I also ask the royal brother to help." ”

"You want to find out who poisoned you?"

Regarding the matter of the eighth princess, even if Beitang King's Landing is not by her side, she knows something.

The eighth princess didn't expect it, a little surprised, but still nodded, "That's right, I and my mother concubine have been wronged for so many years, there was the third emperor sister to protect me and my mother, and now, she is gone, I want to protect myself and protect my mother, and I must not let them think that the third emperor sister is not there, and we will become soft persimmons that can be kneaded by others." ”

"It's a good thing to have backbone, since you're here, seize the opportunity and let everyone see your strength." Beitang Junlin said in a low voice: "This king can help you find out about the poisoning, but this king can help you for a while, and he can't help you for a lifetime, if you want Concubine Niangniang to be safe and sound, only you yourself are full-fledged, and you have broken the mind of those people to make waves in you!" ”

"I know." The eighth princess nodded, "Imperial brother, please rest assured, I will become as powerful as the third imperial sister as soon as possible." ”

Beitang Junlin nodded, and the people around him were also embarrassed when they heard it, who would have thought that the little princess who was hiding behind the third princess all the time at the beginning would now rise because of the death of the third princess?

The battle ahead ended when Lan Jing finally didn't have to lie on Beitang Jun's Landing to make up for sleep, and at noon, Lan Jing washed his face and was about to eat with everyone, when he saw Ye Yu rushing in, "Good news, General Liang won a complete victory in the front, annihilating more than 3,000 enemies and capturing 8,000 prisoners. ”

"Good news indeed!" Lan Jing blinked, "Lord Wang, shouldn't we go back to Xiangzhou?" ”

"It's time to go back." Beitang King's Landing turned around and asked Night Wind, "Are the carriages and horses ready?" ”

Night Wind nodded violently from the side, "It's been ready for a long time, Lord Wang." ”

Lan Jing grabbed a little thumb of the eighth princess, "Let's go, little sister, my sister will take you to Xiangzhou City to play, oh, hehe......"

A series of weird laughter caused the night wind to shake goosebumps, and the eighth princess followed behind Lan Jing with an embarrassed face, "Imperial sister-in-law, I still want General Liang to go to war, this is going to Xiangzhou, isn't it?" ”

"Don't worry, after this war, the Four Seas Kingdom will have at least a one-month buffer period, and those 8,000 captives will be enough for them to grind with us for a while, and you will definitely be able to catch up with the next battle."

The eighth princess followed behind Lan Jing in a daze, got into the carriage, and suddenly remembered, "Imperial sister-in-law, I seem to be three years older than you, right?" ”

"Really?" Blue Mirror had an innocent expression on his face.

The eighth princess nodded affirmatively, "Yes!" ”

"Aren't you only two years younger than King's Landing, so why are you three in line?" Blue Mirror is really confused, normal people, even if it is one a year, Beitang King's Landing should at least be four years older than the eighth princess, right?

Looking at the blank expressions of the blue mirror, the eighth princess looked at Beitang Junlin, who directly pretended not to see it, and the eighth princess said helplessly: "Sister-in-law, the father is not an ordinary man with only one wife, for members of the royal family, especially for the emperor, it is also very common to have four or five children a year." ”

This time, I was stunned by the blue mirror, blinked, and thought for a long time before I suddenly said, "It's because I think it's bad." ”

The eighth princess nodded with satisfaction, and said in her heart, you have finally figured it out.

As a result, I heard Lan Jing say with an indignant face: "A man marries several wives, who breaks the rules?" ”

The eighth princess was shocked, "Imperial sister-in-law, this is an unwritten rule since ancient times, let alone a child of the royal family, even if the people have a little surplus will marry two concubines, that is a symbol of a man's strength and ability." ”

"Tsk, marrying two more concubines is capable." Lan Jing scoffed at the words of the eighth princess: "Then wouldn't the emperor be able to see all the women in the world?" ”

Hearing the unhappiness in Lan Jing's tone, the eighth princess was a little scared, but still said: "It stands to reason that it's not impossible." ”

The blue mirror choked, and the faint eyes fell on Beitang King's Landing, "Do you think so too?" ”

Beitang Junlin wittily implemented the principle that silence is gold when he began to discuss the matter of men taking concubines with Blue Mirror and the Eighth Princess, and never expected that even if he chose Mingzhe to protect himself, Blue Mirror could still burn the fire on himself.

couldn't stop smiling bitterly in his heart, but Beitang Junlin was calm on his face, "Actually, I think this is a good thing." ”

Blue Mirror's face changed: "Do you want to take a concubine?" ”

Beitang Junlin laughed in his heart when he saw it, this little woman's possessiveness is really not weak!

However, the face was still the calm King of Jiangdu, "I don't want to take a concubine, I mean, this is a good thing for women." ”

"Net will talk nonsense." Blue Mirror muttered, his eyes not looking at Beitang King's Landing.

When the agreement was reached, she said that as long as she didn't let trouble find herself, it had nothing to do with her whether Beitang Junlin wanted to marry a wife and take a concubine, but now, obviously, Lan Jing was unwilling, or would never agree to Beitang Junlin's concubine.

However, if Beitang Junlin had to marry a side concubine or take a concubine, then she would not desperately stop it, just turn around and leave.

Beitang Junlin and Lan Jing have been together for so long, how can they not understand her thoughts, but they are not in a hurry, they only said lightly: "Ordinary people's husbands do not take concubines, not that they love their wives much, but they are powerless, and everyone in the palace nobles has the ability and qualification to take concubines, but there are still people like Uncle Zhan Wang and Xiangye who do not take concubines, they really love their wives, compared with those who have three wives and four concubines, which is better and which is bad, isn't it clear at a glance?" ”

Beitang King's Landing said so much, in fact, what he wanted to express was very simple, most of the men of ordinary families did not take concubines, most of them were just because they were not capable enough, not because they loved their wives, and although the men of rich and noble families had the ability to marry wives and concubines, they could also see from this aspect whether he loved his wives or not.

Of course, the eighth princess also understood, looked at the blue mirror, and then looked at the Beitang King's Landing, and the eighth princess suddenly said: "Then the imperial brother, will you also marry a side concubine in the future and take a concubine?" ”

Lan Jing didn't look at Beitang King's Landing, but his whole body tensed, at this moment, Lan Jing felt like a criminal who was sent to the judgment seat, and Beitang King's Landing's answer was the final judgment result for her.
