Chapter 555: Imperial Concubine
Soon, Chi Miao, who was pretending to be an attendant, quickly lowered her head, and without waiting to hear what Jin Yantang said next, she quietly left here and walked towards the harem.
She wants to see what kind of holiness the woman who makes her brother treat her like this, whether she is more beautiful than her or how good her personality is!
At this time, in the Jinluan Palace, no one noticed the departure of an attendant, and Jin Yantang's words brought a short silence to the main hall for a long time before anyone spoke.
Chi Yuan looked at Jin Yantang with inexplicable meaning, folded his hands in front of his chest, and got up and replied, "Is this the result of His Majesty's careful consideration?" Although our Loulan country is small, we specially sent the princess and relatives, originally to let the princess live in the Great Zhou Dynasty as the queen, so as to promote the development of friendship between the two countries. ”
"If the queen canonized by His Majesty is not our princess, then how do you plan to place our princess?"
His tone is unhurried, giving people a sense of calm and power, but it cannot be ignored.
Without waiting for Jin Yantang to answer him, he saw another Loulan envoy slapping the table and standing up, and saluted Jin Yantang with righteous indignation: "Your Majesty of the Great Zhou Dynasty, you are the king of the Great Zhou Dynasty, although our country is small, but the princess is the daughter of the queen of the Eight Classics, Your Majesty must not treat our princess so ruthlessly for the sake of your queen mother." ”
"If Your Majesty can't give us Loulan a satisfactory answer, it's a big deal that we will return to China with the princess!"
Chi Yuan glanced at the envoy lightly and didn't say anything.
And the words of this envoy were like a drop of water falling close to the oil pot, which made the courtiers of the Jinluan Hall explode.
I saw that everyone was surprised and angry and said:
"This envoy from Lou Lan is too bold to dare to threaten Your Majesty with such a tone!"
"Exactly, it seems that the etiquette of the Hu people is nothing more than that, it can be seen that His Majesty's decision is correct, and Miss Nalan should be canonized as the queen!"
"I think so, too."
After their voices gradually became quieter, Chen Shilang got up and saluted the Loulan envoy who spoke, and then said: "Your Excellency, our Great Zhou Dynasty has always paid attention to the inheritance of bloodline, and has never hastily decided on the choice of this wife. ”
"Even though the princess of your country has a noble bloodline, since Loulan Kingdom has chosen to send the princess to kiss her, why does this lord ridicule our majesty everywhere in his words? If you don't want to send the princess to make peace, please also tell the official, and the official will personally send you and the princess back to Loulan safely. ”
This is a war between civilians and officials without gunpowder, and Shang Kelin sat on the sidelines, happy to watch the excitement.
But after Chen Shilang finished speaking, he also got up and said: "Envoys, I am the general of the Great Zhou Dynasty, if Loulan decides to send Princess Heqin back to China, then General Ben will definitely escort you personally." ”
It's good that the two of them didn't speak, but when they spoke, they choked up the envoy who had just spoken.
The reason why he said this was just to test Jin Yantang.
As the king of the Great Zhou Dynasty, if he is a weak and bullying person, then Loulan can call on elite soldiers and unite with the Jin State to annex the Great Zhou Dynasty.
It's just that he didn't expect this Jin Yantang to be a soft person, and these ministers under him don't look like incompetent people.
Suddenly, this made the minister's face a little difficult to look at. Jushuku
Seeing this, Chi Yuan glanced at him lightly, and after he sat down unwillingly, Chi Yuan saluted Chen Shilang and Shang Kelin with their hands folded, and then didn't even look at the two of them.
Then, he looked at Jin Yantang on the dragon chair and said: "Your Majesty, you don't have to doubt our Loulan's loyalty to the Great Zhou Dynasty, we just want to do our duty for the princess, and listen to how Your Majesty arranges our princess, since Your Majesty has decided to crown another woman as the queen, then what position should our princess live in the palace?" ”
Under Chi Yuan's meaningful gaze, Jin Yantang's fingers in his sleeve clenched slightly, and then he replied calmly: "According to the envoy's wishes, how should I arrange Princess Loulan properly?" ”
Pushing this problem back to his master can also see his master's ambitions.
Chi Yuan seemed to have expected Jin Yantang to be like this, he was not surprised at all, he just glanced at Jin Yantang lightly, and then replied: "The division of women's positions in the Great Zhou Dynasty is very clear, and I also know what Your Majesty thinks in his heart, isn't the position of the imperial concubine of the Great Zhou Dynasty just vacant?" ”
"If Your Majesty is unwilling to be wronged, the woman in your heart who is about to be canonized as the queen, then only the position of the imperial concubine in your palace will not be wronged by Her Royal Highness the princess of Loulan Kingdom."
Imperial Concubine? What a lion's mouth!
Chen Shilang glanced at Chi Yuan with a sneer, but he restrained his expression very well, if people who were not familiar with him saw him, they would not be able to detect the meaning of his smile at all.
At this moment, not only Jin Yantang in the main hall, but almost all the ministers were silent, staring at Chi Yuan tightly.
This Loulan is just a country, the Great Zhou Dynasty can destroy them with a touch of a finger, but these people have repeatedly provoked the Great Zhou, which is simply shameless!
In their opinion, provoking Jin Yantang's behavior was tantamount to provoking the majesty of the Great Zhou Dynasty in front of them.
A minister was about to stand up and speak, but Jin Yantang raised his hand and stopped him.
I saw Jin Yantang's eyes turn, looking at Chi Yuan, and suddenly hooked his lips and smiled, and the indifference in his voice dissipated a little: "This is natural, since the envoy has made such a request, then everything will be done according to what the envoy said." ”
For a while, Chen Shilang and Shang Kelin looked at him in surprise, as if they didn't expect him to really agree with what Chi Yuan said.
As soon as these words came out, Chi Yuan's expression remained unchanged, and his eyes only moved slightly, as if he had expected that Jin Yantang would agree to him.
Then, I saw him holding a wine glass and smiling at Jin Yantang: "Your Majesty understands the righteousness, I believe that Loulan will definitely become the most loyal friend of the Great Zhou Dynasty in the future, come, Your Majesty, I respect you!" ”
As he spoke, he drank the wine inside.
Jin Yantang was not bad, and after lifting the cup to him, he raised his head and drank the wine inside.
This welcome banquet was like a Hongmen banquet, some ministers didn't know what was going on, Loulan Guo had already negotiated the conditions with Jin Yantang, and when a palace banquet was over and everyone dispersed, some people slowly reacted to what was going on.
After the two sides decided how to properly arrange Chi Miao, Loulan Guo asked that the canonization ceremony of the queen and the imperial concubine be held separately, and in order to show the noble status of the princess.
Chen Shilang wanted to refuse at first, but Jin Yantang agreed before him, and didn't seem to care what Princess Loulan thought in her heart.
At this time, the sky outside was clear, and a small figure was wandering outside the door, as if hesitating to enter the dormitory.
At this moment, the door was opened, and a good smell of orchids came into Jin Qilan's nose, subconsciously, Jin Qilan raised his eyes, but saw Shang Kelan looking at him with a smile, and said, "Why didn't you go in when you came?" ”
