Chapter 167: Quarrel
His Majesty Liu Jingkang, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, granted permission to marry the Great Jin Dynasty for the royal family, and the selected candidate was the youngest son of the third prince, King Zhongshan!
Marrying the youngest son of the King of Zhongshan with the eldest princess of the Great Jin Dynasty! This incident itself carries the arrogance of the Great Han Dynasty itself, compared to the Great Zhou Dynasty, which is much more formal, and this time the object of the proposal is Li Jiannan, the second son of Emperor Li Che! It is rumored that the crown prince is frail and sickly, and the second son Li Jiannan will soon become the king of a country!
Princess Yunhua's cultivation appearance, the envoys of the two countries have been exploring for a long time, and now they are even seen at the Peony Flower Meeting, which is really the appearance of the country and the fragrance of the country, graceful and luxurious! Therefore, the envoys of the Great Zhou Dynasty are still quite satisfied with this eldest princess, and it is possible for this princess to be the mother of a country in the future.
In contrast, the envoys of the Great Han Kingdom don't seem to care too much! But this involves the young concubine of the King of Zhongshan, although the King of Zhongshan is powerful in the country, but the old emperor Liu Jingkang is very wise, and it is impossible for the King of Zhongshan to take another step, so it is not necessarily arrogant not to care, of course, the previous meticulous work still has to be done.
Proposing marriage is an important thing, first of all, the two horses have eight characters on their birthdays, white portraits, brief introductions, poetry and martial arts, plus a large number of gifts to be prepared for this marriage will be presented along with the gift list!
Sima Yu has to pretend to take a look at these things, the focus is still on the ministers of the three princes and nine secretaries in the court, and the Empress Dowager Xie, and after reading it, you can ask the envoys, such as the character and physical condition of these two people, as well as their situation in the country.
This matter seems to be just a royal family matter, but it is a process of mutual game between various political forces, and the ministers have a say in which family to choose as the husband of the eldest princess, but Princess Yunhua herself has no right to speak.
Among the ministers, a large part of the people, led by the great general Sima Lie, all agreed with Liu Gulai of the Han Dynasty as the eldest princess's concubine! Because the power of the King of Zhongshan in the Han Dynasty was very large, not only did he have many fields and many customers, but even his sons and nephews also occupied very important official positions in the Han Dynasty!
What's more, the iron cavalry of the northeastern frontier army of the Han Dynasty was controlled by the King of Zhongshan, and this iron cavalry has always been the biggest enemy of the Great Jin Dynasty in the Zhongnan Fortress! The greatest advantage of marrying the King of Zhongshan is that the Great Jin Dynasty can have a strategic buffer in the confrontation with the Great Han.
You must know that the two countries of the Great Jin and the Han Dynasty have been in a state of war for decades, that is, the situation has only eased in the past few years! The Great Jin has exquisite craftsmen in the country, and a large number of cultivators in the army, guarding thousands of large bows and crossbows and bed crossbows on the Zhongnan Fortress, which is the nightmare of the Great Khan's iron horsemen, and both sides have nothing to do with each other, so they are at peace with each other for the time being.
But who knows when this balance will be broken? With a strategic buffer, the princess's marriage has been elevated to the level of national security.
However, some ministers led by Yu Guozhong were in favor of the eldest princess marrying Li Jiannan, the second son of the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and Yu Guozhong was indeed thinking about Sima Xun'er's future!
Yu Guozhong looks handsome, his face is sinking like water, and he has a long beautiful beard!
Yu Guozhong is the head of the ministers, his opinion is very influential, at this time he stroked his long hair lightly and said: "Li Jiannan, the second son of the Great Zhou Dynasty, is quite favored by his father, because the prince's health is not good, so Li Jiannan is recognized as the second successor to the throne, and the eldest princess marries, it is very likely that she will become the queen of the Great Zhou!"
Sima Lie snorted coldly and said, "Do I have to completely ignore the safety of the western part of the Great Jin?"
"My Great Jin Zhongnan Fortress is solid, all the soldiers are very hard-working, the last time Situ Jin played the chapter, because of the use of my giant bed crossbow, the current cavalry of the Han Dynasty did not dare to appear in the fortress ten miles away, from this point of view, we don't need to be afraid of them at all! Besides, he proposed to kiss my eldest princess of the Great Jin Dynasty as the youngest son of the prince, this matter seems to be not very worthy of my Great Jin, and the dignity of the royal family is damaged Chinese!"
"Yes, yes!" Someone below agreed, but was stunned by Sima Lie's angry glare.
Taichangqing Xie An said: "Although my Great Jin army is strong, but it is always short of horses, and I heard that the King of Zhongshan is willing to add two thousand war horses to the dowry, the old minister thinks that he can take this opportunity to conduct normal horse trade with the Great Han Kingdom!
Xie An is the clansman of the Empress Dowager Xie, and this person has obviously been bought by Sima Lie, so his opinion is to choose the Han Dynasty to marry, and put forward the reason for trade, but some people also echoed it!
"The Han Dynasty has been blocking our way to obtain horses, and the two thousand war horses are all retired old horses, this matter is already harboring evil intentions, and I will not mention it again in the future, the matter of horses is the sore spot of my Great Jin Dynasty that has been subject to people, and it is simply ...... It's unreasonable!" Yu Guozhong said hesitantly.
"The prime minister's words are wrong, the old horse is also a horse after all!" Xie An was naturally unconvinced.
There was a person next to him: "Lord Taichangqing Xie, if it's really because of the horses, then Da Zhou also produces military horses, but you can talk to them, if you can get married, won't our horses in Dajin be found in the future?"
"You can't say that......!"
“......!”
The ministers here have already begun to quarrel, and they are obviously divided into two factions, both sides have their own opinions, but behind them are the general Sima Lie and the prime minister Yu Guozhong!
Sima Xun'er's face was like a blank piece of paper, she vaguely heard these words in her ears from afar, and she couldn't help but feel a little confused, raised her head and looked in the direction of Emperor Sima Yu, but she didn't see Yang Yu pretending to be a eunuch!
This made Sima Xun'er = feel anxious!
"This hard-hearted dead man, don't you know that people are so upset about this?
In fact, Yang Yu was indeed there, Emperor Sima Yu's honor guard was the biggest, he was hiding in the shadows, of course, he didn't really wear a yellow eunuch uniform, but was dressed in black.
At this time, Yang Yu was quite hesitant to show his face in public, but Solin handed him a mask, and he didn't speak, just nodded at him, and after putting on the mask, Yang Yu and Solin all hid in the shadow of Sima Yu's guard of honor.
They are cultivators, and after Yang Yu released his aura, under the illusion, his figure had long been blurred, and no one could notice them.
The ministers quarreled endlessly, but the little emperor Sima Yu couldn't help it, he shouted: "Don't quarrel with you! This matter needs to be decided by the mother, go, call the two envoys over!"
