Half a month passed, and when the Shen family and Ying Nantu were thinking about Shen Ning and Lu, Shen Ning ended her grounding. (Baidu search eight | zero | book | house to see the good-looking romance)

And the fifth prince, Shangguan Changzhi, also ended his closed thoughts and reappeared in the Jingzhao situation.

The reason is very simple, the Xiyan mission has visited Jingzhao! At about the same time as three years ago, the Xiyan delegation came to Jingzhao in the golden autumn and September, which was the peak time of Jingzhao's "flower stream gold".

Dayong and Xiyan have been in the honeymoon period for several years, in addition to sending envoys to each other to share friendship, the two sides have also carried out a series of trade moves-the mutual market located on the border of Xining Road, the scale is getting bigger and bigger, Dayong has transported a lot of tea, medicinal materials and silk and other things to Xiyan, and also obtained a large number of horses used by Xiyan to trade.

In general, Dayong was deeply satisfied with the benefits of the mutual market, and Jiang Chenghai, the head of the household department, thought of the annual tribute of the mutual market, smiled so much that he couldn't see his eyes, and looked at the Xiyan delegation that came to Jingzhao a lot more pleasantly.

Xiyan sent an envoy this time to make peace.

As early as the 35th year of Emperor Changtai, Xiyan expressed the meaning of harmony to Dayong, which was intended to consolidate the friendship between the two countries, deepen the friendship between the two countries, and of course, involve many other interest factors.

In the past three years, because of the internal power struggle in the upper echelons of Xiyan, the matter of harmony has not been mentioned again; Not to mention Dayong, the Empress Dowager, Prince Xue and other things are one after another, and of course no one pays attention to the matter of harmony.

When the internal power struggle in Xiyan subsided, the Xiyan Emperor Sima Zheng remembered the matter of harmony, and the candidate for harmony, also under the advice of Empress Xiyan and the ministers, decided to be Sima Zheng's fifth-ranked daughter, Princess Yancheng.

This time, the Xiyan delegation visited. Naturally, Princess Yancheng, who brought a kiss, also brought an extremely rich dowry, in order to express her sincerity to her relatives, Xiyan even sent Sima Hao, the most favored prince of Queen Xiyan, to marry.

When the envoys of Xiyan came to Dayong with the prince and princess of Xiyan and the cart of rich dowry. It also caused a concussion in the Dayong court.

Before the arrival of the Xiyan mission, Fang Congzhe, the envoy of the receiving mission, suggested to Emperor Changtai that the five princes should serve as the deputy envoy to assist in the reception of the mission.

Because the five princes had served as the Honglu Temple, they had also served as the deputy envoy of reception when Xiyan visited three years ago. He is very familiar with the reception affairs of Xiyan, and the envoy is accompanied by the prince and princess, so it is most suitable for the five princes to receive the deputy envoy.

After listening to Fang Congzhe's suggestion, Emperor Changtai dismissed Shangguan Changzhi from thinking about it, and appointed him as the deputy envoy of the reception to assist Fang Congzhe in handling the reception affairs this time.

Emperor Changtai allowed Shangguan Changzhi to leave the palace also had his own considerations, and Xiyan and his relatives had already decided on Sima Zheng's daughter, so correspondingly, the person who married Princess Yancheng was his own emperor's. The third child was imprisoned. There is only the fifth left. The fifth child is not yet married. He is the most suitable, and Emperor Changtai also wants Shangguan Changzhi to contact Princess Yancheng first, so as to lay the foundation for future marriage.

"Congratulations, Your Highness. The Emperor has appointed His Royal Highness as the Deputy Envoy for the Reception, and His Royal Highness can come and go freely. "Inside the Five Princes' Mansion. Fang Congzhe went to the official to rule the Daoxi.

This is indeed a happy event, His Royal Highness not only regained his freedom, but also conveyed a message to the Jingzhao officials: the emperor is very affectionate to the five princes, and even the scandal of the Qiyue Palace, the emperor has also lightly exposed it.

"It's still thanks to Lord Fang's suggestion, His Highness has just finished thinking about it so early. What are the details of the visit of the Xiyan Mission? "In the past half month, in order to make a gesture of sincerity, Shangguan Changzhi did not pass on news to the outside during the closure of the palace, and besides, he knew that the mission was coming, so he was not in a hurry at all.

It was only at this point that he regained his freedom and asked for details of the mission.

"And pro? Princess Yancheng? Listening to Fang Congzhe's words, Shangguan Changzhi's face was a little solemn, he only knew that the envoy came to discuss the matter of peace and kinship, but he didn't know that the candidate was actually the daughter of Emperor Xiyan, which made him a little flustered.

has always been kind, most of them choose the daughter of the clan and the son of the clan, and rarely declare the princess and prince of the emperor, so he didn't think too much about it. Now that Xiyan has decided on Princess Yan Cheng, who will be the one who will marry her? Shangguan Changzhi didn't even have to think about it to know that person was himself!

Marrying a foreign princess seems to be honorable, but in fact, it is not beneficial to him in the battle for succession, but harmful!

How much power can a foreign princess have? Moreover, most of the courtiers will think that "if they are not of my race, their hearts will be different", and they will definitely respect the princess of the foreign race from afar without close friends, how can they win over the power of the dynasty for themselves?

Such a concubine is really useless for him!

At this time, Shangguan Changzhi began to regret that Shangguan Yongping had reached that point, otherwise, he would have blocked in front.

"What kind of person is this Princess Yancheng?" Shangguan Changzhi quickly figured out the key. If it is not my race, its heart will be different, unless this Princess Yancheng can bring him great benefits, otherwise he must find a way to reject this matter of harmony, this first depends on who she is, whether she is favored in Xiyan or not.

"This Princess Yancheng is ranked fifth, not from the queen; It is said that the beauty is unparalleled, and Weichen only knows so much. Fang Congzhe was a little ashamed, for Princess Yancheng, Honglu Temple really knew very little.

This shows that Princess Yan Cheng is a dispensable person in the Xiyan pattern, and she was never mentioned in the spy reports sent back from Xiyan, otherwise, how could Fang Congzhe not know about this person?

"Not from the Queen?" Shangguan Changzhi's brows furrowed, he had also heard a little about the power struggle in the upper echelons of Xiyan, and the biggest beneficiary of this struggle was Empress Xiyan.

is not from the queen, and was sent to make peace, this Princess Yancheng can imagine that she is by no means favored, let alone bring him benefits? It's good not to drag him down!

What is the use of beauty matchless? What he needs right now is a force that can help him! After he ascends to the big treasure, what kind of woman do you want! No, this marriage must be pushed away, otherwise it will be a big trouble!

"Lord Fang, pay close attention to Princess Yan Cheng, what hobbies and personality she has, you have to figure it out as soon as possible. His Royal Highness has his own way to deal with this. Shangguan Changzhi said. Seemingly. I'm going to gather my staff to discuss how to deal with it.

At the same time, Shen Huashan, Shen Zejing, Shen Ning and others were also discussing the matter of making peace.

Shen Zeyuan had already returned from Xining Dao, and he was traveling day and night, bringing back the latest news from Shen Yuyi and their return from Xiyan. This news is about the reaction of the upper echelons of Xiyan to Heqin.

"Princess Yancheng was born by a lowly palace maid, and she was disliked by Sima Zheng and the queen, so she was chosen to be a friend; Its beauty is unparalleled. His personality is timid and introverted, and he has nothing to worry about...... Sima Hao is arrogant, violent and violent, is the queen's favorite youngest son, and his brother and brother, the prince of Xiyan, have always been at odds, this time it was the prince of Xiyan who facilitated his coming to Xiyan, for fear that the prince of Xiyan would take the opportunity to die. ”

Shen Yuhong interpreted the content of the secret letter, and began to analyze the information conveyed by the secret letter in his mind.

"The fifth prince is the deputy envoy of the reception, if there is no accident. The candidate to marry Princess Yancheng will be the fifth prince. Princess Yancheng has such a character identity. The fifth prince marrying her is harmful. The marriage will be denied. And we're going to make it happen anyway. Shen Zejing spoke first.

Since the banquet in Heyuan, he was worried that the Five Princes' side would fight back desperately, but who knew that the Five Princes' Mansion was calm. But it made him even more worried, which showed that the Five Princes' Mansion was waiting for the opportunity. Go without saying. At that time, it is the time for the daughter to be married.

Now, the matter of harmony is really a godsend, as long as the fifth prince marries Princess Yancheng, then the daughter can escape this catastrophe for the time being.

"Ning'er, go to the palace once in the past two days, and talk to Rong Guifei about this matter, so that the emperor will make an order as soon as possible, and there will be changes later." Shen Huashan said that he agreed with Shen Zejing's meaning, and it was best to use Princess Yancheng to let the five princes enter the game.

In fact, the emperor's preference for the fifth prince to marry Princess Yancheng can be seen by anyone with a discerning eye, the Shen family knows, Shangguan Changzhi knows, and even the second prince knows. There must be some wrestling, and whether you can get your wish depends on who is more capable1

"Ning'er knows. Ning Er and the second brother will also order Ruliu to keep an eye on every move of the Five Princes' Mansion. Let's look at the actions of the five princes, and then discuss the countermeasures. Shen Ning replied to Shen Huashan's words.

Princess Yancheng came to Jingzhao, and it was rumored that her beauty was unparalleled, which caused the girls of Jingzhao's official family to discuss more than once, and even the county lord of Rongping was quite interested, and asked Shen Ning, Zheng Shaoyi and others to enter the palace to gossip, and happened to talk about it with Rong Guifei.

"Judging from Yi'er's meaning, Prince Xiyan strongly approves of Sima Hao's coming to Dayong, he should want to take the opportunity to take Sima Hao's life, and it is very likely that he will put the blame on Dayong's side, could it be that Prince Xiyan wants to provoke discord between the two countries?" After agreeing on the direction of the affinity, Shen Huashan talked about something else.

If his conjecture is correct, then it will be troublesome, Sima Hao must not be allowed to have an accident in Dayong, once he has an accident, there will be a big war between the two countries, how many people will suffer!

After a while, Shen Zejing spoke, his thoughts were the same as his father's, Dayong and Xiyan finally avoided war and peace, and there must be no more disputes, and he soon said what he was going to do.

"Two years ago, Yi'er reported that there had been a great famine in the area of West Yanman Mountain, which had a profound impact; In the past two years, there has been a power struggle in Xiyan, and the situation has just stabilized, it stands to reason that Xiyan now wants to keep peace with Dayong, which should be the intention of Prince Xiyan himself; Hong'er, immediately give Yi'er a letter of repair, asking him to spread this matter in Xiyan, and it must reach the ears of Queen Xiyan, I believe that she will definitely stop Prince Xiyan if she knows this matter; In addition, find a way to arouse the vigilance of the Jingzhao Mansion Guards, so that they can strengthen the protection of Sima Hao. ”

"The child knows. In addition, the child has already thought of a way to arouse the wariness of the Jingzhao guards. After listening to Shen Zejing's words, Shen Yuhong replied. As soon as this method comes out, I believe that the Jingzhao guards will not dare to be careless, and they will definitely target that Sima Hao to death, and it is not so easy for Prince Xiyan to start.

"Oh?" Shen Huashan was very relieved by Shen Yuhong's quick response, and he was also a little curious, what method did his grandson come up with?

"That's ......" Shen Yuhong elaborated on his method, and the other three also nodded: Yes, although it is a little risky, it is also a good way to attack it unprepared!
