"Nanqing is located on the border of Zhongzhou, bordering the Duo Kingdom and the Hostu Kingdom, with a vast area but a small population, and has had contact with Dayuan before but has not been able to maintain it for a long time, and it has broken off contact after the 'mixed' war of the Nine Kingdoms more than a hundred years ago. The monarch of Nanqing is still virtuous, but it is a pity that the luck is not good, the incense is not prosperous, and the more than 70 concubines in the harem only gave birth to six princes, three of whom died early, one was intellectually defective, and the remaining two were trapped by love and escaped into the empty 'door', and now only the prince can inherit the throne. ”

In the west side hall of the Leadhua Palace, which was shrouded in night, Yan Li sat at the table with her cheekbones propped up, listening carefully to Zhong Yue's answer to her questions.

Which are the five countries visiting? Who are the messengers? What is the relationship between these countries and the Yuan Kingdom? Yan Liwu, who has always been reluctant to think about boring politics, gave birth to a 'desire' for knowledge for the first time, and when he found that Zhong Yue knew these situations very well, he couldn't help but pull people to the table to explain.

Zhong Yue said with a dry mouth, drank a whole cup of tea, let out a sigh of pleasure, and continued to devote himself to a serious explanation: "Nanqing, the prince, is quite famous, but not because of his ability or how competent he is, but because he has a good wife. Miss Yan has never seen the prince of Nanqing, that person has a good face, how many 'female' children will blush at a glance, but the princess of Nanqing is a 'female' person who is not good-looking, at first some people said that the princess was not worthy of the prince, and within two years, her tone changed, and she became a prince who was not worthy of the princess. ”

"There are always some ignorant guys who like to judge people by their appearance, but in fact, the ones who can really focus on certain things are those who don't have a 'look'." Yan Li was worried and emotional, and casually 'inserted' a sentence.

"Yes, Miss Yan's words couldn't be more reasonable." Zhong Yue nodded vigorously, and his eyes were vaguely filled with reverence, "Prince Nanqing and the crown princess are like this. The good skin failed to give Prince Nanqing a good brain, that person likes 'women' and 'sex' and does not want to make progress, and does things absurdly and confused, but the crown princess who is not favored by others has been in the limelight in just two years, whether it is assisting the queen to take care of the harem or occasionally offering advice to maintain the stability of the previous dynasty, none of them is lagging behind, and even more 'colorful' than many men. ”

Yan Liwu chuckled: "This is interesting, a dignified man is not as good as a weak 'girl', where is Prince Nanqing's face going?" ”

"As long as you can share the worries and solve problems for the monarch, who cares whether Prince Nanqing's face is black or white? Anyway, it is rumored that the monarch of Nanqing is inseparable from the crown princess, and almost treats her as his own 'daughter'. ”

Yan Liwu has been yearning for the heroic heroes in the 'women' since she was a child, and she was very interested in hearing Zhong Yue talk about the princess of Nanqingguo, but at this time she didn't have the 'fine' strength to worship anyone, and there was still more important news to inquire about.

"Since there is only one prince left in Nanqingguo and there is already a concubine, it is unlikely that he will ask for a marriage. Zhong Yue, talk about the other four countries, do they have any marriages in urgent need? ”

Zhong Yue pinched his neck, only to feel that his throat was dry and astringent, as if he was about to smoke, and then looked at Yan Li's anxious gaze, and couldn't help grinning: "Miss Yan asked so much, is the relationship just to ask who wants to marry my Dayuan?" In the end, you still can't let go of the second prince and the young master, right? ”

"What does it have to do with me whether you young people want to marry or have children?" Yan Li's scalp tightened, and he denied it without thinking, "He himself said that he would marry if he had a suitable one, what is the use of others 'worrying' too much, maybe he will complain about being nosy in the end." I just want to know if the marriage is reliable, if there is really a need for a prince to marry......"

If Wen Moshu was really ordered by the emperor to marry, what should she do to change the status quo?

Zhong Yue saw that Yan Li was stunned, hesitated for a while, and asked cautiously: "Miss Yan didn't think about the young master at all?" ”

"Nope!" Yan Liwu turned around and answered categorically.

Who is Wen Moqing? Even if she racked her brains to think about him, would he make the choice she wanted? Rather than wasting his efforts in vain, it is better to pour 'essence' into Wen Moshu, after all, Wen Moshu is the person she wants to spend her life with, if she is really taken away by the princess of which country to become a 'door' and 'son-in-law', where will she go?

A look of annoyance appeared on his delicate and fair face, and after Zhong Yue had nothing to say, Chu Yang, a young man who was silent more than Wen Moqing, suddenly spoke: "There are also people from the Hosdu Kingdom. ”

"Hostus? I think I've heard of this name somewhere...... Is there anything special? "Searching for a moment in the chaotic memory fragments to no avail, I gave up my memories and asked questions directly.

Zhong Yue smiled bitterly: "Huo Si Duguo, Miss Yan really haven't heard of it?" I thought Miss Yan knew the young master very well. ”

"How can Wen Moqing have anything to do with the Horst Kingdom again-" Halfway through the words, Yan Liwu suddenly thought of something, and gasped deeply, "I remember, Helian Mingyan is a person from the Horst Kingdom, right?!" ”

"Ah, yes, that's the problem." Zhong Yue 'licked' his dry lips, and the expression on his face was a little unnatural, "Miss Helian...... Miss Helian and the young master's affairs should know about it, right? After the disappearance of Miss Helian, we secretly investigated behind the young master's back, and it turned out that Miss Helian was actually a famous family with the name of the country of Hosdu, and her father had a high status in the country, and had visited many small countries in Zhongzhou as an envoy. ”

"So what? Are you doubting that the person who sent the envoy on behalf of the country of Hostur this time may have something to do with Helian Mingan? Yan Li smiled sadly, shaking his head indifferently, "Helian Mingyan looks the same age as Wen Moqing, so her father's age should be about the same age as King Dingyuan, they are all old men, and the possibility of traveling thousands of miles away is very small." Besides, even if the visiting envoy is really a person who has a relationship with Helian Mingyan, what can he do, he will not forcibly take Wen Moqing away and go back to be the husband of the village, right? ”

Zhong Yue, who dared to joke about Wen Moqing, was still seeing it for the first time, and after crying and laughing and distracting the strange imaginary picture of Wen Moqing as a crushing village husband in his mind, Zhong Yue was 'lustful' and said: "Miss Yan has underestimated that Helian girl." The visit of the envoys of the five countries was of great significance, not only the imperial court paid attention, but also the rivers and lakes were shaken, and many people, including our Junzilou, tried all kinds of means to find out the relevant news, and one of the news as a result was that it was Miss Helian herself who sent the envoy on behalf of the country of Hosdu. ”

"Helian Ming? She's an emissary of the kingdom of Hostus? "If it's really her, then it can explain why she will appear in front of Wen Moqing again after many years, but doing so is undoubtedly causing a second injury to Wen Moqing - Wen Moqing finally decided to give up that relationship, how could she bear to appear in this form, how could she bear to tear Wen Moqing's wound that had not healed?" Did she think about Wen Moqing? ”

Zhong Yue didn't answer, his meaningful eyes quietly looked at Yan Liwu, and there was a smile on his face: "Miss Yan, isn't she very concerned about the young master?" ”

"I ......" Yan was speechless, dumbfounded for a long time, picked up the teacup and poured a big mouthful, "Don't make trouble, talk about business." Tonight's banquet will be attended by the envoys of the five countries, and Wen Moqing was specially called by the emperor to participate, so wouldn't he want to meet with Helian Mingyan? Did Wen Moqing know that Helian Mingyan was the envoy of the Hostur? ”

Taking a deep breath and glancing at Chu Yang, Zhong Yue shook his head in annoyance: "I received the news too late, and I haven't had time to tell the young master - in fact, even if I knew it earlier, I would hesitate to say it, the young master, as soon as he heard the name of Miss Helian, his mood would deteriorate, and he always drank alone, and the children in the building tried their best to pretend that there had never been a person like Miss Helian." After a little hesitation, Zhong Yue swallowed his saliva and looked at Yan Liwu cautiously: "Miss Yan, according to the instructions of the young master, Chu Yang and I should not have had more contact with you, but today's situation is special, and the two of us ...... The two of us came to you just to let you accompany the young master after the banquet tonight, otherwise the young master will drink again. ”

Wen Moqing's alcohol consumption is not good, this is what Yan Liwu has known for a long time, and he remembers that his face is always very bad after a hangover, but is it useful for her to explain Wen Moqing? After so many years of love-hate entanglement, there may be no room for outsiders to interfere between Wen Moqing and Helian Mingyan, and besides, she wanted to inquire about Wen Moshu's situation after the banquet.

"Miss Yan, can I ask Chu Yang and I to ask you? We really don't want to see the young master like that......" Seeing that Yan was still hesitant, Zhong Yue was a little anxious, and his tone couldn't help but be much more hurried, "Maybe Miss Yan and the young master don't think so, but those of us who have followed the young master for many years can see it clearly, after getting to know Miss Yan, the young master has changed a lot, he loves to laugh, and he doesn't often drink alcohol, only Miss Yan can make the young master forget Miss Helian!" ”

"How is that possible?" Yan Liwu was 'confused' by the sudden request, and his heart was mixed.

Isn't it a fantasy to say that she can affect Wen Moqing's mood? That way, people who do their own thing will not be influenced by anyone and change, right? The only one who can change him is probably Helian Mingyan.

There was a muffled sound, and he was so frightened that he trembled with anxiety, and looked up at Zhong Yue in unison, it was Chu Yang who threw the short knife he was wearing on the table, and the young man's face was faintly anxious and annoyed: "Give it to you, give it to you, you go to the young master!" ”

Yan Liwu was completely stunned.

What's going on here?

"Chu Yang means that as long as Miss Yan is willing to help, he can give the most precious thing to Miss Yan as a reward." Zhong Yue, who was also frightened by Chu Yang's actions, smiled bitterly, "Miss Yan is not strange, Chu Yang has not been in contact with people for many years and rarely speaks, and he always fails to express his words, he is just too worried about the young master, and hopes that Miss Yan can help with this." This short knife was given to him by the young master, and he has always regarded it as the most important treasure, for the young master's words-"

"I know, I know, don't you just persuade him to make him want to open some? I'll go, you better put away this murder weapon. Without waiting for Zhong Yue to finish speaking, Yan Li shook his head helplessly, sighing.

Seeing Zhong Yue turn his worries into joy, Chu Yang also 'revealed' a faint and jerky smile, and smiled bitterly, and a strange feeling welled up in his heart.

She had planned to sneak out quietly to the Tianque Palace after the birthday banquet, although she had a rather cold and hard attitude when she left that day, and still had doubts about whether Wen Moshu was hiding the marriage, but Yan Liwu was worried about him after all, and she was eager to know if there was any progress in the emperor's marriage; But when he heard that Helian Ming would appear in front of Wen Moqing as the envoy of the Hosdu Kingdom, and Wen Moqing was also one of the candidates for the emperor's intention to marry, the scale in Yan Li's heart was biased towards Wen Moqing.

I can't tell why, she hopes to see the intact warmth and ink, and she hopes that her appearance can really dispel the 'yin' shadow left by Helian Ming as Zhong Yue said, and make him happy.
