Xiao Ruyu shook her head in a panic and denied it.

She swept her eyes over everyone, and except for a slight embarrassment on the queen's dignified countenance, everyone else looked at her with a smile.

They all believed that kind of expedient excuse!

This is not right, the whip of the queen mother still hurts her now, hasn't she always opposed marrying her precious daughter to that concubine?

"Queen Mother!" Xiao Ruyu's nose fluttered, and she shouted urgently.

I saw the Queen Mother lightly open her lips and persuade Wen Yan: "Yu'er, this is what you decided!" You are a princess, Chrysostom, how can you regret it? ”

It turned out that the queen mother had betrayed her.

She withdrew the hand that was being held by others, and glared at the old pious woman of the Xuguo Mansion with resentment.

Although Lu Tongzheng was annoyed in her heart, she didn't dare to make a mistake in the palace with her identity and status, and her hands stopped in mid-air without moving, and the smile was also fixed on her face.

"Hugh is messing around!"

The Queen Mother simply made her words clear: "Jiang Yue colluded with Taza to invade our country's territory, you know this." Since Emperor Taizu pacified the Quartet, only 20 years have passed since the peaceful and prosperous times. If it weren't for the painstaking management and hard work of your father Emperor Renming, and the more than a dozen elites in the Central Plains, we would have been eaten by them inside and outside to the bones, where would there be leisure to enjoy chrysanthemum drinking here!

"Do you know that the khan of the Taza country sent an envoy the day before yesterday, and he was extremely provocative and rampant, saying that if we refused to let him in the five cities of Longxi, he would ask to marry the princess of my Great Zhou in exchange for the stability of the frontier!"

Xiao Ruyu was shocked, and all she could think of in her mind was the ancestral precept engraved on the stone tablet.

When the Great Zhou Dynasty was founded, Emperor Taizu once made a rule that the descendants of the Xiao family would never cede the land and never get along. Taza's move put the imperial court in a dilemma, and it really directly deceived Emperor Taizu.

Therefore, under the current situation that the Central Plains is greatly insufficient, it is the best policy to encircle the former ministers of the founding of the country and stabilize the frontier.

But in any case, the eldest princess of Roujia is just the most useful chess piece in the hands of the queen mother, where she is, where she will be stable. This is a fate that cannot be escaped as the princess of Da Zhou.

The elite of the Central Plains in the mouth of the Queen Mother, among them is the Yongzhou Army, which is the old department of the Huaiyong Marquis Lu clan.

The words fell sonorously, and even the water pavilion over there was silent. The children stopped chasing and fighting, put down the novelty in their hands, and King Baohe led them to stand on the shore, looking at the Queen Mother, who had made a generous statement. Xiao Yizhi sat alone on the mahogany couch in the water pavilion, without saying a word, letting the ambergris mist linger around his body in a hazy manner.

Empress Qi saw that the Queen Mother's eyes were red and tears were pouring out, so she caressed the Queen Mother's heart and said to Xiao Ruyu slowly: "Princess, don't blame us!" It's not that my mother and I deliberately want to hide it from you, it's really the safety of the society is important, and we are not willing to let you go to Tazana and other wild and bitter cold places to suffer. In comparison, the Huaiyong Hou Lu family is the best choice, and we will still be able to take care of each other in the future! ”

"Since you all want me to marry into his family, I don't want to dismiss your intentions." Xiao Ruyu sneered, the corners of her mouth twitched, "It's just that I am a dignified princess of Zhou, and I will never marry a reckless husband, only those who have a knighthood can be worthy of being a captain!" ”

The name of the eldest princess of Roujia has long been spread all over the world, and today she will not mind making her wild words known to the whole world-

The person she wants to marry is Huaiyong Hou Lu Tongyi, the old man who is close to the sixtieth birthday!

The Queen Mother's eyes were closed, and her whole body was trembling, because she held the queen's arm tightly, so she didn't fall down.

Lu Tongzheng stretched out his hand and pointed at Xiao Ruyu's nose, and he didn't care if he was respectful or disrespectful at the moment, "You, you...... This ......"

"What's the matter, ma'am? As far as I know, although Lu Hou's deceased wife was born in the royal family of the previous dynasty, she only occupies a national surname, and she doesn't even have the title of a little countryman! This princess is now going to be your brother-in-law, which adds supreme glory to the lintel of your Lu family! Are you still upset about that? ”

Xiao Ruyu looks straightforward, but she doesn't know how to play tricks. With just a few soft words, he pushed back Lu Tongzheng, who was tense and gritted his teeth.

In the entire Lingbo Palace, only Xiao Yizhi laughed loudly when he heard this, and threw all the majesty of the king into the pool to feed the fish.

-

The news from the palace spread to Jinling overnight, and it became a joke for a while.

Xie Shuying was annoyed by last night's incident again, and at this moment she also fell on the pillow and "giggled" and laughed, and the freshly pulled hanging bun was rubbed into a mess. An Yue was angry and laughing, pushing each other with her, but she couldn't hold her stomach and felt a pain, so she knelt down on the edge of the bed and shouted "sigh".

It is said that Liluo was injured and was the most unintentional joke, but early in the morning, she saw the two little girls at the gate of the courtyard interpreting the story that happened in the palace, and she had to cover her mouth and hold her face red. Shuying asked her why she was like this, and she told her truthfully, and finally couldn't help but laugh.

The Hou Mansion had already fried the pot in front of it. All the clansmen were half worried, half ridiculed, and rushed to give advice to the old marquis one by one, but they were all blasted out unexpectedly.

It's cheaper to act on the shadows. Hou Ye was furious, he beat people when he saw them, Feng Jiuyuan served by Hou Ye's side, and now he didn't dare to go in; Riro took the opportunity to call him to the backyard so that Shuying could interrogate.

It's still on the plank road covered with stumps and leaves.

Shuying asked Feng Jiu how well Hou Ye was doing, Feng Jiu was obviously a little uncomfortable, his eyes were wandering, and he was hiding his words.

Liluo intentionally or unintentionally showed his injured hand, teaching Feng Jiu to be concerned and distressed.

"Brother Jiu, don't twist like this in front of me. Our girl is kind and kind, you don't know it. The girl will not embarrass you, so she will ask you anything, and you can tell you what you know. ”

Shuying nodded at Feng Jiu with a light smile.

Feng Jiu replied with a smile, "What does the girl want to ask when she is looking for a little one?" ”

"Little brother serves Hou Ye hard, then I won't go around in circles with you, and I will directly say it thoroughly. Not long after I came to the Hou Mansion, I didn't know what taboo and estrangement there was between the Hou Ye and the ancestors, and I asked the little brother to make it clear, lest I do something wrong in the future and offend his old man. ”

"Well, this ...... Where to start......" Feng Jiu touched the back of his head and hesitated for a long time before he said, "The ancestor is the only son of Mrs. Xianhou, and he is also a very kind and gentle son, and the Hou Ye naturally likes him very much. But Hou Ye wants his son to become a dragon, and he usually treats him very harshly, and his school homework is conducted, as long as the ancestor has some ungood things, he will be beaten and scolded at every turn. There is another matter, I am afraid that the Hou Ye will know about it in the future, and I will tell the girl about it, and he will ask me to blame, so please keep it in my heart and don't pass it on to the ears of others! ”

"Okay, little brother, don't worry, I'll keep my mouth shut." Shuying clutched his cuffs, and a layer of sticky hot sweat appeared in his palms.

"A little guy next to the ancestor of the world, named Ding You, since the death of the ancestor of the son, the Hou Ye locked him in a small room in the backyard and never let him out. We...... I don't know what Hou Ye did to him, just guess...... Hou Ye likes him......"

Ding You, "Ding You"......
