Chapter 775, no negotiation

It turned out that this princess Cheng came to see Yan Yan today mainly on the order of their Goryeo king, and wanted to marry Lu Jin for their son, and the other party promised that Lu Jin would definitely be the princess in the past and would be the queen in the future.

After the translator finished speaking, the two maids opened the two large boxes in front of Yan Yan, one box contained gold and silver jewelry, and the other box contained calligraphy and painting scrolls, and then the translator respectfully sent the gift list to Yan Yan.

Yan Yan didn't take the gift list, but smiled faintly, "I'm sorry, this matter is not negotiable, one, my daughter is still young and far from being a minor, and it is too early to talk about her marriage, and second, I will never let my daughter marry far away, let alone marry a foreign domain." ”

Princess Cheng listened to the translator's words, and said a paragraph again, to the effect that they were very sincere in asking to marry Lu Jin, and this time they just wanted to preliminarily set this intention, and they would definitely pick a good day to announce to the outside world, and the day of marriage would definitely be placed after Lu Jin's year.

Yan Yan still shook his head, and then picked up the tea bowl, but the other party didn't understand or deliberately ignored it, and had no intention of leaving, and wanted to persuade her.

"Our king promises, as long as Ling Qianjin agrees to marry our son, our king is willing to be a vassal of the Great Zhou, and will pay tribute to the eldest birthday every year in the future." The translator said.

"This has nothing to do with us, whether you want to be a vassal state of Liao or a vassal state of the Great Zhou is your own business, and it has nothing to do with my daughter. Yan Yan pulled down his face and opened his mouth directly.

The other party obviously didn't expect Yan Yan to suddenly turn his face and pick up people, and his face was a little unbearable, but he didn't leave with his sleeves up, but asked Yan Yan if all the foreign vassals didn't marry.

Yan Yan only then knew that it turned out that many of these foreign vassal countries who came to mourn the Queen Mother this time had the idea of landing on Lu Jin, but those people were blocked from the gate of Mingyuan, and she was greeted by Yan Yan as a distinguished guest standing at the door, so she mistakenly thought that Yan Yan also had this will, but she didn't know that she could enter this door today, completely relying on Zhou Lu's face, and had nothing to do with Goryeo.

Of course, before coming, this Xiao Ling also did some homework, knowing that the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty had sent a dragon pendant to Lu Jin, and also knew that Lu Jin had been the companion of the county lord Li Xi for two years, but she also knew that the law of the Great Zhou Dynasty stipulated that the prince would not marry the daughter of a military general's family, and she also knew that Yan Yan had encircled Lu Jin at home to teach him personally.

As for the Queen Mother's last words before her death, because Li Cong has not yet announced it to the public, it has not been circulated.

And this princess Cheng thought that it was too difficult for Lu Jin to marry Li Xi, and it was very likely that she would not be able to marry Li Xi and become a problem for Yan Yan, because if Li Xi did not marry, others would not dare to ask for marriage easily, so she wanted to gamble, maybe this was also an opportunity for Goryeo.

And she still has an important bargaining chip in her hand, that is, the vassal status of Goryeo, but unfortunately, she miscalculated the situation.

Because this has no meaning to Yan Yan, and she believes that it does not mean much to the Great Zhou, because at the beginning of the founding of the Great Zhou, Goryeo was originally a vassal state of the Great Zhou, but with the weakening of the national strength of the Great Zhou and the rise of the Liao State, Goryeo turned around and took refuge in the Liao State.

Seeing this, Yan Yan couldn't be moved, Xiao Ling realized his mistake, and changed to play the emotional card of Zhou Lu and Xiao Yu, and asked Yan Yan if he wanted to marry Liao, Yan Yan saw that the more she talked, the more unbearable she became, and directly ordered Qingyu to find a few mothers-in-law to pick people up.

"Our princess said, the lord of Baihui County, please calm his anger, we can be friends if we can't be in-laws, I heard that the Lord of Baihui and our Queen of Liao have a very good relationship, and Pingyan Marquis has also become our Emperor Liao's guest many times, so we can also be friends and business partners." The translator said.

But Yan Yan didn't want to be a partner with such a person, so she spoke again: "I'm sorry, I think the princess also knows that we shouldn't have guests during the state funeral, and I have been sick recently, and it is not suitable to see people. ”

The translator told their master what Yan Yan said, and after hearing this, Princess Cheng was not angry, but puzzled, "Why?" ”

"No, no, no why." After speaking, Yan Yan got up and instructed Qingyu: "You send the distinguished guest out of the door for me, remember, these two boxes of things are sent away together, and it will be useless." ”

"Don't worry, master." Qingyu hurriedly bowed down and agreed.

But this time Yan Yan obviously made the other party angry, the princess Cheng listened to the translator's words and immediately got up and walked out, Qingyu hurriedly led people to send the two big boxes to their carriage outside the gate.

"Who are these people? Why is it so thick-skinned? Yan Yan, who returned to the backyard, complained to Lu You.

"This is normal, who called me a lady famous? You think, marrying our daughter is equivalent to marrying a cornucopia, even if you can't bring back artillery technology, there are still many other benefits. Lu You hugged his wife.

"Wouldn't it be better to marry a princess?" Yan Yan said angrily.

Harmony should have been the princess's business, when will it be her daughter's turn to make sacrifices?

"The lady is also confused, you forgot, you yourself were almost sent to kiss, our princesses of Da Zhou rarely marry far away." Lu You smiled and pinched his wife's cheek.

Lu You's words reminded Yan Yan that Li Cong didn't just want to marry her to Liao, and wanted to use her to ease the relationship between the two countries.

However, at this time and that time, now that the Great Zhou has artillery and gunpowder to rely on, and at the same time defeated the Liao State and the Western Xia and the Jurchen Three Kingdoms Alliance, this strength is enough to make these neighboring countries who were once ready to move look sideways, therefore, Li Cong should not choose the road of peace again, let alone be willing to give Lu Jin to others.

It's just that it won't be easy to settle this family business, but this is not something Yan Yan can worry about.

It may be that Princess Cheng said something after she went out, or it may be that Qingyu led someone to chase the two boxes outside the door for outsiders to see, so there were rumors in the capital that Princess Cheng came to propose marriage and angered Yan Yan to be chased, and also said that Yan Yan would never let her daughter marry a foreign domain.

Although these remarks somewhat affected the mood of Yan Yan's family, there was also a little benefit, after that day, the gate of Mingyuan was much cleaner, and no one came to the door to ask to see him anymore.
