Chapter 284: Intending to Get Married
"Come on, Concubine Ning is drunk, send Concubine Ning back to the palace to rest, without my will, you are not allowed to take half a step out of the door." Situ Lei's voice was as cold as iron, and the green tendons on his forehead rioted.
The atmosphere in the hall instantly condensed. Although those harem concubines didn't dare to say a word, their eyes looking at Concubine Ning all showed a gloating look.
Shui Ningyan saw everything in his eyes, and the corners of his lips hooked up a very faint arc of irony. Unexpectedly, this Concubine Ning is pampered and proud in the palace on weekdays, and it seems that she has made a lot of enemies.
"Your Majesty, the concubine is not drunk, the emperor ......" Concubine Ning originally wanted to continue, but suddenly met the eyes of her boss Tu Lei, who were colder than Xuan Bing, and was so frightened that Concubine Ning suddenly didn't dare to say anything more.
At that moment, Mama Gui hurriedly helped Concubine Ning get up.
"The concubine retired." Concubine Ning blessed her body, and before leaving, she glared at Shui Ningyan fiercely, with an unwilling look on her face.
Unexpectedly, she did all the tricks, not only did she not let Shui Ningyan lose her reputation today, but she stole chickens and rice, but she definitely won't give up.
After Concubine Ning left, Situ Shaogong couldn't help but come over, and said with some curiosity: "Girl, tell me, how did you make that bird make a call just now?" Hearing this, Shui Ningyan smiled, and a sly star flashed in his eyes.
Unexpectedly, this time she actually deceived Situ Shaogong.
"What? Isn't it the bird's call? Just now, Situ Shaogong noticed that Shui Ningyan hypnotized the bird.
"Of course not." The corners of the water condensation smoke lips raised slightly,
"The only sound I used in ventriloquism."
"Ventriloquism?" Situ Shaogong raised his eyebrows slightly, although he didn't understand what ventriloquism was, but his mouth didn't move when Shui Ningyan made a sound just now, and this ventriloquism is a little different from the pronunciation of ordinary people on weekdays.
At that moment, he shook his head slightly, and the corners of his lips couldn't help but hook up a light smile. He really wanted to know what this girl had in her head, otherwise why she was always so full of tricks.
Concubine Ning had been away for a long time, and Situ Lei's gloomy face had not eased for a long time. There was silence in the hall.
Concubine Ning's misdemeanor just now was undoubtedly a heavy slap on the royal family. So Situ Lei was no longer interested in feasting, a touch of tiredness appeared between his eyebrows, and he said in a deep voice: "I am a little tired, go down to rest first, you can drink freely." ”
"Congratulations to the emperor." The people present immediately stood up and said respectfully.
"Your Majesty, wait a minute!" At this moment, an out of place voice suddenly sounded. Seeing that it was Duan Yihong who spoke, Situ Shaogong and Shui Ningyan glanced at each other, and both of them saw curiosity in each other's eyes, what tricks did this Duan Yihong want to play.
Situ Lei had no choice but to continue to stay on the dragon chair and waved his hand to signal everyone to sit down. He pondered for a moment and said in a loud voice: "I don't know what is wrong with the envoy of the Xichi Kingdom?" Duan Yihong stood there with his chest straight, with a touch of cold arrogance at the corners of his eyes and eyebrows, and arched his hand: "Your Majesty, Dai Lan and Prince Situ were married from a young finger, and now that Dai Lan has reached the right age, I don't know when the Stygian Moon Kingdom plans to marry Dai Lan?" As soon as these words came out, the hall was silent at first, and then it was boiling.
Especially those daughters of official families, they couldn't help whispering.
"Ah, I didn't expect Princess Dailan to have a marriage contract with our Prince Situ! Is it possible that Princess Dailan will be the crown princess in the future? ”
"What if there is a marriage contract? Don't you see that the prince already has a crush? ”
"It is rumored that Princess Dailan is amazingly talented, but the dance skills she performed just now are only slightly better than ours, compared with Miss Shui, it is definitely a difference of 108,000 miles, if I want to see Miss Shui, she is more worthy of Prince Situ."
"But Princess Dailan is the most noble princess in Xichi Kingdom, she and Prince Situ are in the right place, and that Shui Ningyan is just the daughter of a general in Dongli Kingdom, and her identity is a big difference."
"Prince Situ values people, not identity, although Miss Ben doesn't like Shui Ningyan, but it is even more unpleasant to look at that Princess Dailan, so Miss Ben thinks that Shui Ningyan is worthy of Prince Situ after all." …… At this moment, all kinds of voices sounded in the hall like a tide.
Shui Ningyan's expression was indifferent, but Princess Dai Lan had already lost her breath, and her pretty face was so uncertain that she almost crushed a mouthful of steel teeth.
Damn, she really wondered if Shui Ningyan was her nemesis, otherwise why would she always end up in failure, but Shui Ningyan was out of the limelight?
At this moment, Situ Lei on the dragon chair tightened his brows, and was in a dilemma for a while, so he could only be silent. At the beginning, he was friendly with the emperor of Xichi Kingdom, so he set this family affair, but who knew that his son had been rebellious since he was a child, and he didn't admit that there was such a family affair at all, and because he had always been sorry for his son and unwilling to persecute, this family affair has been stranded.
Now that he was suddenly taken out to talk about things, Situ Lei really didn't know what to do.
"Your Majesty, Dai Lan is the most noble princess of our Xichi Kingdom, Xichi Kingdom and the Stygian Moon Kingdom have always been good friends, and now that Dai Lan is not young, should the Stygian Moon Kingdom always give us an explanation?" Seeing that Situ Lei didn't speak for a long time, Duan Yihong suddenly became a little aggressive.
Duan Yihong's rude attitude instantly angered Situ Lei. Situ Lei's big hands gripped the armrests of the dragon chair tightly, and because he was too hard, the bone joints had already turned slightly blue and white.
But in the end, it was the Stygian Moon Kingdom that was at fault, so he had to hold back his anger and look at Situ Shaogong below with complicated eyes.
For many years, his son has always been worried about not being close to women, and his son is now finally finding his love, if he comes out to obstruct it now, he is afraid that the estrangement between father and son will become deeper and deeper, not to mention that he also hopes that his son can get true love.
"Hey, everyone here today also sees that the prince already has a heart, as the saying goes, it is better to demolish ten temples than destroy a family. Emotional matters are reluctant. But back then, the two countries did have a finger for marriage, it is better to do this, in addition to the crown prince, Princess Dailan can choose one of my other sons, although the other princes are not as good as the prince, but they are also dragons and phoenixes among the people, if Princess Dailan marries into our Underworld Moon Kingdom, I hereby promise that I will never let Princess Dailan suffer half of the grievances. Situ Lei said with an extremely serious expression.
As soon as the words fell, the princes of the Stygian Moon Kingdom, led by Situ Huoqing, buried their heads very low, and they really wanted to flee incognito immediately, for fear that Princess Dailan would take a fancy to her.
It was rumored that Princess Dailan was beautiful, proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but who would have thought that she would be so high-flying and pampered when she saw it today, if she married such a woman into their palace, wouldn't it be guilty in the future.
For a while, several people secretly slandered in their hearts: If they were Situ Shaogong, they would definitely choose Shui Ningyan, not only are they more beautiful than Princess Dailan, but they are also very dignified and elegant, and they are amazingly beautiful, I don't know how many times better than Princess Dailan.
I think only people with abnormal brains would choose Princess Dailan. Princess Dailan saw that those princes of the Dark Moon Kingdom avoided her like a snake and scorpion, and faintly heard the mocking laughter of those official daughters, Princess Dailan suddenly felt that her face was like being slapped a few times, and it was so hot that it hurt.
She was annoyed and angry, and just as she was about to open her lips, she was stopped by Duan Yihong with her eyes. Princess Dai Lan could only hold back the anger in her heart and looked at Duan Yihong for help, hoping that the other party could get back this evil breath for her.
At this moment, Duan Yihong also felt very dull, and at that moment he gritted his teeth, and said in a cold voice: "Your Majesty, what is the reason?" At the beginning, the object of marriage with Dai Lan was Prince Situ, how can he be someone else now? The Dark Moon Country is a big country, and if you do such a discredited thing, aren't you afraid that the people of the world will laugh at it? As soon as these words came out, Situ Lei's chest immediately rose and fell in anger, and a sullen breath blocked his chest so that he couldn't say a word for a long time.
Although it was the Dark Moon Kingdom that was the first to lose, he had already said it very sincerely, but he didn't expect the other party to be unforgiving, and it was okay not to marry such a person.
"Duan Yihong, don't deceive people too much. The prince never admitted the marriage. Who the prince wants to marry is naturally up to the prince. If Princess Dailan doesn't want to marry other princes of the Underworld Kingdom, how much benefit does the Xichi Kingdom want, as long as it is reasonable, this prince will definitely agree. But if there are some people who don't know what to do, then the Stygian Moon Kingdom will definitely not allow people to speak out again and again! Situ Shaogong's words were sonorous and powerful, not angry and arrogant, and his whole body exuded a domineering aura exclusive to the superior, which was not inferior to Situ Lei, who was the emperor.
Seeing this, Situ Lei was very relieved in his heart. His son has always done things in a measured manner, neither humble nor arrogant, and he is indeed the material for being an emperor.
When he returns to old age in a hundred years, the Jiangshan Sheji of the Dark Moon Country is handed over to his son, and he can rest assured.
"Situ Shaogong, you Immortal Moon Kingdom don't talk about credibility first, and now you still want to threaten this prince. Okay, then today I'm going to see how you Stygian Moon Kingdom is going to deal with our brother and sister! Duan Yihong was furious, Huo Di got up from his seat all of a sudden, and Princess Dailan immediately stood up, looking at Situ Shaogong with a pair of slightly tearful eyes.
She didn't expect this man to treat her so ruthlessly, but she didn't get what Princess Dailan wanted or who she wanted.
Brother Shaogong will be hers sooner or later. Thinking of this, Princess Dailan tightened her palm fiercely. Although Duan Yihong was furious at the moment, he was not so bad that he lost his mind.
Now that he is in the territory of the Dark Moon Country, it is very unfavorable to him, if he really provokes the other party, maybe Situ Shaogong will really kill him.
As the so-called heroes don't eat the losses in front of them, he snorted coldly at the moment and said angrily: "Situ Shaogong, our Xichi Kingdom is not a soft persimmon for people to knead at will, since you don't give us a satisfactory result, let's see." Leave! After the words fell, he took Princess Dailan's hand and left.
When such a thing happened, the people present naturally had no intention of feasting, so the birthday feast ended quickly.
