Chapter 197: Pie in the Sky

Since the midwinter of the month of Layue, the capital can see the bright and warm sunshine every day, the festive atmosphere of yesterday's Lantern Festival is still left in the streets and alleys of the capital, the pile of flowers does not see the accumulation of flowers, but you can see a lot of lanterns blown down by the spring breeze last night scattered on the road, a carriage slowly passed, there are several lanterns are flattened.

On both sides of Duihua Street are the houses of the wealthier families in the capital, because few people will come here because of the remoteness, when the snowstorm last year, a shop opened at the end of the street, the shop is rarely opened, and there are few customers to visit.

But today, this shop with a wide open door ushered in a sedan chair first, and then a sedan chair.

The back hall of the shop is a patio that does not cover the sky, the patio is covered with moss between the cracks of the gravel because no one cleans it up, and where no one has stepped on the corner, there is green grass and one or two small red flowers.

The patio is surrounded by a bluestone slab for walking, and the bluestone slab is connected to the corridor, which is a small courtyard house.

In the sunlit hallway, two people stood.

There was a distance of one meter between the two, and their faces were calm.

Early this morning, King Chao left the Zuojun Governor's Mansion, which was busy with affairs, and came here directly, and the old lady who came out of King Chao's Mansion and entered King Rui's Mansion invited Du Yiyi here with his order.

This is the private residence of King Chao.

"The envoy of Tubo said in the palace today that Dahe and Tubo are a hundred years of brotherly alliance, although Tubo is weak and Dahe is strong, but this is a covenant signed by the Holy Ancestor of Dahe, for many years Tubo and Dahe are like brothers, friendly and harmonious coexistence, Tubo is even more obedient to Dahe, the king of Tubo wants to marry with Dahe's heavenly family and repair for another hundred years, this is for the sake of the stability of the people of Tubo Dahe, I hope the emperor can choose to set a good date with the princess as soon as possible."

Ning Chaoge stared at Du Yiyi beside her without concealment, seeing that her brows were slightly lowered, her eyebrows were slightly frowned, and the smile on the corner of her mouth became more and more happy and comfortable.

She remained silent, waiting for the angler's agitation after he threw the bait and waited for the fish to take the bait.

Ning Chaoge invited her to come, of course, not to talk about national affairs with her, a woman, and the two countries had diplomatic relations.

Unable to wait for an answer, unable to wait for the frowning brow to furrow again, Ning Chaoge opened his mouth again. "It's still the father's wisdom to set Ning Xiao's marriage date, the courtiers proposed to Feng Ning Yi as the princess on behalf of Dahe and his relatives, but he was also vetoed by his father and gave a holy decree to Ning Yi to marry, Tubo was slapped in the face like this, of course he was angry, but he didn't know, Ning Yi's marriage with the fourth child could be successful?"

Whether he can succeed or not is naturally not that he has doubts, he is just watching Du Yiyi's reaction.

"The emperor's golden mouth and jade words, since the holy decree has been issued, what can Tubo do if he is resentful?"

Jiang Taigong fished, the wisher took the bait, Du Yiyi had a heart of hope, and could only break the silence.

Ning Chaoge's stagnant smile gradually thickened, but the corners of his eyes narrowed in contraction, and Du Yiyi gave an answer that he wanted or didn't want.

"Although the decree has been given, it is not irrevocable." He threw the bait again.

"As far as I know, the only marriage edicts that have been issued and revoked are the eldest princess and Yang Yi."

Yang Yi is guilty of rebellion, this is a special situation, but this special situation will never occur between Ning Yi and Ning Zhiyuan.

"Father is Mingjun."

"No one said that the emperor was a faint king."

"If Ning Yi's life is bloody, and he can't get married, the marriage edict can naturally be canceled and withdrawn!"

Ning Chaoge kept throwing the bait, but he didn't lead the topic to himself, watching Du Yiyi's delicate face gradually gloomy, the smile on the corner of his mouth became more and more cheerful.

Having grasped the most critical point, he has already won himself a bargaining chip.

"What does it have to do with you?" Du Yiyi turned her head and glared, these two gazes made her very angry.

Although King Ning is only a vassal king, he has no cronies in the court, but his relationship with the emperor is quite unusual, marrying Ning Yi is only good for Ning Zhiyuan, and there is no harm to Ning Zhiyuan, and the benefit to Ning Zhiyuan is naturally a disadvantage for Brother Ning Chao.

Facing these two cold gazes, Ning Chao Ge Li looked at the sleeve of the white middle shirt with the sleeves through and said, "If it wasn't for the fourth child's intervention, I think you should be my princess now!" At the beginning, the fourth child said, you will not marry in this life, but now you are married one after another, he said that he is sincere to you, but I know that you have not yet performed the gift of Zhou Gong, I just want you to know that the fourth child is a liar with a honey belly! ”

It's ridiculous and unbelievable.

Du Yiyi frowned coldly, and her lips, which had only been smeared with a layer of lip protection and clear oil, were very dazzling in the sun: "What does that have to do with you?" ”

Regardless of whether Ning Zhiyuan is a liar who will not give up until the goal is achieved, this has nothing to do with Ning Chaoge, a person who formulates a circle based on interests, she doesn't believe that his motives and goals are just so simple.

The fish has no bait and no baiting, and people have no profit to fight, she will not forget that this incident was originally caused by Ning Chaoge.

"If the fourth child can really live happily with you, I will be very angry, and if you will be sad because of this, I will also feel angry, so I demolished the east wall and made up the west wall, and I am willing to be a good person."

"You conspired with the crown prince to let the emperor marry Ning Yi and him, just to watch Shen Ke break with him and make him lose a big help? And now you say you're going to ruin your plan for me? As soon as she raised the corners of her mouth, her sparkling lips became more dazzling.

"So, I called you here! Instead of Chao Wangfu, if you can beg me! I should have made an exception! "Let Ning Yi marry Ning Zhiyuan, it was the prince's first idea, this is a move that seems to be detrimental to interests, but in fact it can be played with unexpected effects, and now that the effect has been achieved, it doesn't matter how this move is played.

The emperor has sent a signal to the civil and military officials, and has issued a warning to Shen Ke, who has won the sacred heart step by step, he has never been able to understand the emperor's attitude towards Shen Ke, and now he already knows. Although the emperor trusts Shen Ke very much, but the bottom line is not allowed to be crossed, Shen Ke is Ning Zhiyuan's help, but how much can he help, the emperor has already reminded him with his attitude.

It is no longer in his interest whether he will follow the prince to destroy Ning Zhiyuan's love to the end or stop playing the role of a good person.

Since it is not about interests, you can choose at will.

He chose the latter.

"Suddenly I feel that Ning Yi is really a little innocent!"

A harmless little girl, first was kidnapped by the country's stability and was asked to make peace with Tubo, and then was used as a tool to test the emperor's attitude, and now it is useless, but she has to be ruined like this, think about it from another angle, she feels that she, the county lord, has done more aggrieved than herself, the princess Rui.

"Born in the heavenly family, you have to give up everything for the stability of Dahe, survival of the fittest, and being used by others can only be because she has no ability to fight back, besides, she doesn't think it's a use and hasn't thought about fighting back!"

"You and Ning Zhiyuan are really brothers."

"Huh?"

"The same shamelessness!"

Ning Chaoge smiled and said, "Shameless must also have the ability to be shameless, you beg me, I will consider solving this matter for you!" ”

Du Yiyi didn't think about it, and stepped firmly on the bluestone slab and walked towards the patio. She had already confirmed that Ning Chaoge called her just to humiliate her to make up for the trauma left by Ning Zhiyuan's intervention that day, and there was still nearly a month to go, and she didn't need to say this word, because the cabinet hadn't spoken yet!

"You really don't think about it?"

The resolute and decisive departure of the back made Ning Chaoge a little surprised, he underestimated Du Yiyi's fortitude when he was stubborn, he thought that a woman, even if she had no love with her husband, should be the most angry person when she was provoked by other women again and again to her self-esteem, such anger would stun the mind of any shrewd woman, make them panic and lose their minds, and they would hold on tightly when they saw the straw on the water, but Du Yiyi seemed to be an exception.

He saw the anger in her, but not her panic.

The distant back gave an answer.

Ning Chaoge snorted coldly, pushed open the door behind him, and the sunlight poured in, and in the room, there was a richly dressed young woman, the young woman's hands were caressing on the slightly bulging lower abdomen.

Looking at the young woman who was constantly stroking her slightly bulging lower abdomen, Ning Chaoge's cold expression dissipated in an instant.

If you fall in one place, you can get up in another.

Du Yiyi's sedan chair was stopped on the street outside King Rui's mansion, and Xu's mother took the silver and a letter stuffed by this person, and handed it to Du Yiyi.

Such a letter has been received by Du Yiyi every time she faces a crisis.

The Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Sixth Ministry both spoke, but the cabinet did not speak, she knew the reason why Ning Zhiyuan couldn't speak, but there was someone who would speak for her.

After reading the letter quickly, the breath she had held in her chest for a night and a day finally spit it out, and her cold heart, which had just been pierced by Ning Chaoge's words, gradually warmed up, and the cabinet, which had been silent on this matter, spoke today, and Ning Zhiyuan, who she thought would be silent to the end, didn't know if it was because she was too afraid of Ning Yi or for other reasons, but she actually spoke today.

Although it is said that the marriage is the willingness of the Son of Heaven Chrysostom and Yuyan, it is not important whether the two are willing or not, but if the person who is given the marriage expresses his reluctance in front of the Manchu Dynasty civil and military and submits the holy decree, it is somewhat important.

The emperor is a Ming monarch, although he likes to mess with mandarin ducks, but no one has shown his reluctance after he messes with mandarin ducks over the years, Ning Zhiyuan said these words to embarrass the emperor in front of the civil and military officials is harmful, but if the emperor does not take into account the wishes of his courtiers, he may be said that the emperor is not benevolent when he is small, and he may rise to the level of mediocrity when he is big, which is also a certain advantage.

But how much risk should the person who said this take? If this person was not Ning Zhiyuan, maybe the emperor would be put in prison when he was annoyed and embarrassed in court, but even if it was Ning Zhiyuan, he said these words in the early dynasty, and the emperor's breath was difficult to swallow, Du Yiyi picked up the corner of the curtain and asked the palanquin man to go to the palace, the letter did not mention Ning Zhiyuan's current situation, she was a little worried!
