Chapter 280: Asking for Marriage
The next day, on the fifth watch, the sky was still a little dark.
Chamomile and Leng Xiang were shocked when they heard the movement in the house, Ji Qiang didn't have the habit of getting up on five watches on weekdays, the two looked at each other, and were about to push open the door.
The door slammed open, and what came into their eyes was Xia Jingnian's cold and resolute face, and they hurriedly knelt on the ground: "I have seen His Royal Highness King Qi." ”
"Shh Xia Jingnian turned around, with tenderness in his eyes, "Don't wake up your master, when she wakes up, she will have porridge and her favorite bean paste buns for breakfast, as well as chestnut cakes." ”
"Yes, King Qi rest assured." Chamomile nodded, a smile on her face.
It wasn't until she couldn't hear Xia Jingnian's footsteps that Leng Xiang raised her head, surprised and gossiped: "Chamomile, you said, how could King Qi come out of our princess's house, could it be that they have ........?"
"What's the difference?" Chamomile glared at her with disgust, "The master's business is not something we can criticize." Moreover, with the friendship between the princess and the king of Qi, they should have been together a long time ago. ”
Leng Xiang agreed: "I look forward to the princess marrying into the Qi Mansion as soon as possible." ”
Jinluan Palace, courtiers entered.
The emperor sat high, he glanced around, and his eyes fell on Xia Jingnian: "King Qi went to the northern kingdom, what did he find?" ”
"The northern country is heavily guarded and the army is well-trained, which is worth learning from our country." Xia Jingnian sat down and said lightly.
The emperor nodded, listened to this sentence, and asked again: "Xiaoyang is okay." ”
"It's okay, thank you for your concern." Xia Jingnian lowered his eyes slightly, and said, "Your Majesty, this king has a request. ”
The emperor's eyes flashed with a hint of interest, and he hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?" ”
The other courtiers also pricked up their ears to listen, not wanting to miss anything at all, and they didn't dare to look up at Xia Jingnian directly.
"This king wants to marry Princess Xiaoyang as his wife, and he also asks His Majesty to give him a marriage." Xia Jingnian said word by word, and there was a sound on the ground, which shocked many people.
Especially Xia Chengmu, he subconsciously shouted: "No! ”
The courtiers turned their eyes on Xia Chengmu again, and they all bowed their heads without mixing words.
"Why?" The emperor also looked at Xia Chengmu, "The sixth said no, but you have to say a reason." ”
Under the eyes of everyone, Xia Chengmu also had to bite the bill and hesitate: "Erchen feels that Xiaoyang is still young, and besides, this matter should be agreed by Song Guogong." ”
"The minister naturally agrees to the marriage between King Qi and Xiaoyang." Ji Yuanxun said happily, "King Qi and the dog girl are already in love, they are a pair made in heaven, if you interfere more, you will be a wicked person." ”
"Father, the son also agrees with what Song Guogong said." The prince came out of the ranks, with a smile on his face.
Xia Chengmu looked at the prince instantly, slightly angry, this idiot!
"Since you don't agree, let's discuss it tomorrow." The emperor had a smile on his face. Huaxia Chinese
Xia Jingnian's expression was nothing else, just bowed lightly, holding a teacup and drinking, I don't know what he was thinking.
The news that King Qi asked to marry Princess Xiaoyang spread throughout the palace, and even the people outside knew about it, and they all turned to tell them, feeling that they were simply a match made in heaven.
"I'm!" An Nan threw the white porcelain bottle on the ground, biting his lower lip and bleeding, "I didn't expect them to really succeed!" ”
Mama Cui lowered her eyes lightly and laughed: "Why are you so angry, even if that Princess Xiaoyang doesn't marry King Qi, that person is not yours." ”
She could see very clearly that Xia Jingnian was by no means a thing in the pool.
"Mama, Princess Xiaoyang is very smart and strategic, if she is properly married to King Qi, it will be like a tiger with wings for him." An Nan rolled his eyes and analyzed carefully, "In this way, the threat to the crown prince will be great." Once King Qi wants to rebel and ascend the throne, then if I want to get closer, it will not be so simple. ”
Mama Cui looked at her, as if she was weighing the truth of her words, and finally she got up: "Let's go, I want to go with you to meet this Xiaoyang princess." ”
When An Nan arrived at the princess's mansion, Ji Qiang was picking flowers with a flower basket, and she was going to make some flower dew.
"Princess, the side concubine is here again, this time with a grandmother." Chamomile hurried into the garden to pray, her eyes slightly worried, "It seems that she is here to stir up trouble, especially that grandma, who is a powerful character at first sight." ”
Ji Qiang put the cut flowers on the basket, her expression was indifferent, and when she touched the look of chamomile, she said comfortingly: "Don't worry, the so-called soldiers will block the water and cover the earth." ”
In the main hall, An Nan was sitting upright, and with Mama Cui's beating and guidance behind her back, her foxy spirit weakened a lot.
As soon as he saw Ji Qiang appear, he immediately got up and stepped forward: "Princess Xiaoyang, I came to visit suddenly today, and I really bothered a lot." It was really my fault last time, and today I am here to apologize. ”
Xi'er and the others were all surprised, they secretly exchanged looks, and did not relax their guard.
"Sit." Ji Qiang walked past her, calmly sat on the upper seat, picked up the teacup and took a sip, "The side concubine has such an awareness, this princess is very pleased." ”
This light breeze made An Nan feel great pressure, and he unconsciously surrendered in his heart. More importantly, she mourned from the bottom of her heart, and spontaneously felt that this was the power of the princess!
Unwilling! An Nan secretly pinched her hand, the pain made her sober up a lot, and she smiled: "Yes." ”
"If you want to see this princess today, I'm afraid it's not you, the side concubine, it's this grandmother." Ji Qiang looked at Mama Cui and bowed her head lightly, "If you have something to say, you can just say it, you don't need to sell it." ”
Mama Cui admired it very much, and she sighed in her heart, even if she was the real princess of Luohui Kingdom, she couldn't compare with Ji Qiang. The person in front of him has peerless beauty, calm and wise, and is really a formidable opponent.
It's no wonder that An Nan is a fool and can't win. Zhuyu is in front, how can the king of Qi look at her more.
Mama Cui retracted her thoughts and said with a light smile: "Princess Xiaoyang doesn't have to worry too much about my master, after all, she has changed from a pheasant to a phoenix, and she can't compare with a real golden branch and jade leaf like you." ”
"Mama's serious." Ji Qiang took a sip of tea, and realized that this Cui Mama in front of her was a good person, "As long as people are safe, this princess will naturally not care too much." ”
Mama Cui nodded, and stepped forward to pour tea for Ji Qiang in person: "The princess is really generous, adults don't remember villains, if there is something to ask for in the future, it will definitely be a promise." ”
"Okay." Ji Qiang chuckled, a pair of good-looking eyes flowing with crystal light, like priceless amber, which was amazing.
On the way back to the palace, An Nan still had a breath in her heart, and she asked puzzledly: "Mama, you said before, even if the matter is revealed, it doesn't matter, why do you have to run to the princess's mansion today, giving gifts, apologies, and promises?" ”
