Chapter 56: Waiting

Zhou Ziyu said with a nervous face, "Yue'er, before today, Ziyu is sure that she doesn't know that Princess Selin, and it is impossible to have anything to do with her, you must not misunderstand." ”

Yan Lingyue choked at first, and then burst out laughing. Feelings: Zhou Ziyu thought that Princess Selin's target was him.

Seeing Zhou Ziyu's cautious appearance, Yan Lingyue hesitated for a moment, but still opened her mouth, "Don't worry, Princess Selin likes Duan Minghong." I don't know for what reason, Princess Selin pulled me and Duan Minghong together, not to say that Duan Minghong likes me. So I inexplicably became a stumbling block on Princess Selin's emotional path, and became her rival in love. That's why she asked me out to meet, and it has nothing to do with you. ”

Yan Lingyue was not afraid of Zhou Ziyu's cranky thoughts. There was nothing between her and Duan Minghong, and there was no need for her to hide it from Zhou Ziyu. Now she doesn't say it, in case she is yelled out by Princess Selin one day in the future, but it seems that she has a weak heart. It's better to tell the truth, and it seems that she is above board.

"So that's the case," Zhou Ziyu breathed a long sigh of relief, and said to Yan Lingyue happily, "Look, let's just say that Ziyu is the most honest and never messes with flowers outside." ”

Yan Lingyue was immediately amused, "Since you are so confident, what are you worried about?" ”

Zhou Ziyu pursed his mouth, "That's not worrying that Yue'er will be unhappy." Only when Yue'er is happy, Ziyu will be happy. ”

"It's sweet for you," Yan Lingyue glanced at Zhou Ziyu.

While the two were muttering quietly, King Zhou and Prince Bower had already talked about Selin's marriage.

If it were other women, they would definitely be shy when they heard that they were going to choose a husband for themselves. But it was different with Selin, not only was he not shy, but he also raised his hand to speak, "Your Majesty, Selin has long been in his heart." The reason why he rushed all the way from southern Xinjiang to Dazhou this time was for this favorite man. ”

"Oh? So which man was so lucky? King Zhou laughed out loud and looked around at the marriageable young people present.

Duan Minghong, who was drinking stuffy wine, jumped in his heart. Sure enough, the next moment, Princess Selin pointed at him in public, "Duan Minghong Duan Major General." This princess came all the way to Da Zhou just for General Duan. ”

Princess Selin's words fell, except for Yan Lingyue and Zhou Ziyu, everyone present had varying degrees of surprise on their faces.

Even King Zhou was stunned, and then laughed out loud, "Princess Selin is really good-looking, and Young General Duan is very popular in our Great Zhou." ”

Selin was not modest at all and said, "This princess is also very sought after in Southern Xinjiang, and anyone who wants to be my concubine can circle around the Imperial City of Southern Xinjiang twice." ”

Selin's true temperament made King Zhou laugh again. But if you like it, King Zhou is still very sensible. Duan Minghong is strong in martial arts, brave and good at fighting, among the younger generation, King Zhou is the most optimistic about him. In King Zhou's mind, Duan Minghong is the next old general Duan. While defending the homeland and the country, it is necessary to have heavy troops. As far as this situation is concerned, King Zhou really didn't want him to marry a foreign woman from the bottom of his heart.

Not to mention...... King Zhou looked at Zhou Xiangjun, who was sitting next to Queen Xiao, he originally wanted to marry Zhou Xiangjun to Duan Minghong. However, Concubine Hui was not very happy, saying that Duan Minghong was stationed at the border all the year round and went to the battlefield to kill the enemy. The sword has no eyes, and Concubine Hui is worried that Zhou Xiangjun will stay alone in the empty room.

As a royal princess, Zhou Xiangjun no longer needs to rely on others to give her wealth. In Concubine Hui's opinion, her daughter only needs to find an honest and obedient husband to live a stable life.

Because of Concubine Hui's opposition, King Zhou didn't mention Duan Minghong again, but he still thought in his heart that marrying Zhou Xiangjun to Duan Minghong was the best arrangement. His daughter should have married the most valiant general of the Great Zhou. And with Zhou Xiangjun here, he can reuse Duan Minghong more confidently!

No matter what aspect he considered, King Zhou was not very willing to marry Selin Xu to Duan Minghong. But Princess Selin confessed Duan Minghong in public, and King Zhou couldn't refuse in one go. The current plan can only be left to Duan Minghong.

"I don't know what Ming Hong wants?" King Zhou touched his beard, looked at Duan Minghong with a smile, and said directly, "Lonely, respect Minghong's meaning." ”

King Zhou's words can be regarded as giving Duan Minghong enough face. also made Duan Minghong more confident to express what he meant, that is, he was not happy!

"Minghong is afraid that he will live up to the princess's kindness." Duan Minghong arched his hand and said, "Minghong has made an oath since he was a child to protect his family and defend the country and fight in all directions. Nowadays, in the northwest, the rogue is still rampant. The people are worried all day long, and Minghong is also unable to sleep. ”

"As early as when my grandfather helped Minghong Zhang Luo's relatives, Minghong said that if the Northwest Liukou is not completely eliminated one day, Minghong will not consider starting a family."

Duan Minghong's oath echoed loudly in everyone's ears. Such a young general who serves the country and the people can't help but be in awe. Even Princess Selin, who was rejected, was not only not angry, but also loudly supported with a nymphomaniac, "That's good! He is worthy of the man I Celin has a crush on. ”

The crowd was speechless.

Some even have some doubts about whether this Princess Selin has something wrong with her brain. They were all rejected, why are you still so excited?

Who would have thought that Selin would clench his fists and say to Duan Minghong, "Just for your heroism, this princess is waiting for you!" ”

Wait...... Wait for Duan Minghong? When everyone heard this, they were shocked again. It's okay for a man to get married late, especially if he is a young general with real power, even if he waits until middle age to get married, there will still be a group of sixteen or seventeen girls waiting to line up behind him. But it's not okay to be a woman, no matter how high the status is, as long as you pass the marriageable age, you will be called an old girl.

Therefore, as soon as Princess Selin's words came out, how could she not attract everyone's attention.

Of course, there are also people who laugh at Princess Selin's stupidity behind her back. Regardless of whether Duan Minghong's oath came from the bottom of his heart or not, it proved one thing, that is, Duan Minghong didn't like Princess Selin at all. But Princess Selin is good, and she is still cheeky.

Selin is bent on marrying Duan Minghong, she doesn't care about these, but Prince Xuan'er cares. They came to Da Zhou as guests, after all, they represent southern Xinjiang. Every word and deed is related to the face of southern Xinjiang. And Selin's actions tonight can be regarded as losing the face of the southern Xinjiang royal family.

Prince Ballist glared at Serin fiercely, got up and said to King Zhou, "It really made the king laugh." As the youngest princess of the southern Xinjiang royal family, Selin has been spoiled by everyone since she was a child, and she is used to lawlessness. In addition, the folk customs of our southern Xinjiang are relatively open, and if there is anything wrong with Selin's words and deeds, I hope the king will not mind. ”

Although Duan Minghong's oath that he would not marry if he didn't get rid of the rogue made King Zhou more shocked, at least for now, he rejected Princess Selin, and King Zhou was still in a better mood, and laughed at the moment, "Princess Selin has such a true temperament, she really deserves to be a heroine among women." When the words fell, King Zhou raised his glass.

The prince of Ballist also raised his glass, tilted his head, and drank it all. Then he sat back in his seat. From beginning to end, he didn't look at Duan Minghong, let alone say a word to him. In the eyes of the prince of Ballar, the bullshit rogue is not married, which is clearly used to prevaricate the serin. But his sister is a heartless person, and she is still shouting that she wants to wait for others, and the prince of Balbow is about to be blown up.

On the contrary, it was Zhou Xiangjun, from indifference at the beginning, to surprise, and then to Duan Minghong's eyes that showed admiration that even she didn't notice.

A major general who defends his home and country! With such a title, how can a girl not like it. What's more, before, King Zhou also deliberately mentioned Duan Minghong to her and asked her if she wanted to be the general's wife, but before she could think about it, her mother refused for her.

First, Zhou Xiangjun had only heard of Duan Minghong, but had not really seen him. Second, Concubine Hui was opposed. Therefore, she didn't think much about it, and the matter was over. What's funny is that before today's banquet started, Duan Nianyun actually casually matched her and Duan Minghong. No matter what, anyway, Zhou Xiangjun remembered Duan Minghong. Of course, it's just memorization.

But the glimpse at the banquet, and when Princess Selin confessed, Duan Minghong's oath to protect the family and defend the country made the unemployed Zhou Xiangjun's heart move. At that moment, she suddenly felt a little moved by her father's proposal.

Perhaps, being the general's wife is not as bad as her mother said, Zhou Xiangjun looked at Duan Minghong again with a deep look.

Looking at the audience, only Zhou Ziyu and Yan Lingyue were the most calm. From beginning to end, the two of them were eating snacks and watching songs and dances, and they were talking in a low voice, which was not good.

A reception banquet ended dramatically.

By the time Zhou Ziyu and Yan Lingyue held hands and returned to Ming Hanxuan in a leisurely manner, it was already late at night. Zhou Ziyu didn't rest well because he drank too much wine last night, so he slept on the bed tonight.

However, Yan Lingyue couldn't sleep.

Thinking of King Zhou's happy and laughing appearance at the banquet, Yan Lingyue hated it. Her father and queen mother are sleeping in the cold ground at this moment, why can King Zhou enjoy all this with such peace of mind?!

She hates King Zhou, but every time she sees King Zhou, she not only has to smile very happily, but even shouts her father with Zhou Ziyu. Sometimes, Yan Lingyue really hated her powerlessness.

Otherwise, why don't you just break the kettle and kill King Zhou directly? But the premise is that she must also be able to get close to King Zhou. From the time she married Zhou Ziyu to the present, in addition to seeing King Zhou when she was serving tea, today is the second time she has seen King Zhou, and she has seen it from afar. She didn't even have a chance to get close to King Zhou. With such a she, how can she kill King Zhou.

After thinking about it, she had nothing but to wait. Even if you are unwilling, you have to wait patiently.
