Chapter 389: A Generous Dowry

Luo Ling originally thought that she would just come out and walk casually to understand the current situation in the palace, but who knows, she accidentally saw that Concubine Zhu's face had some problems, so she secretly calculated a hexagram, but it showed pregnancy.

It seems that most of the time, anyway, Concubine Zheng left early, so she seized this opportunity to remind Concubine Zhu, which can be regarded as making friends with Concubine Zhu. In this palace in the future, maybe she can help somewhat.

"Niangniang herself is careful, if it is, tell the emperor as soon as possible, if not, Niangniang should not be discouraged. Niangniang is still young, and there will be opportunities in the future! ”

Luo Ling was pregnant for the first time, so he was afraid that he would not be accurate, so he added a sentence. lest Concubine Zhu hate her in the future.

Concubine Zhu is actually half-convinced, and she is not disgusted by Luo Ling's words, but feels that she is not as annoying as rumored.

"Good! Then the main palace is one step ahead, and if there is a chance, Miss Luo Ling will go to the main palace to sit there! ”

Luo Ling nodded slightly, "Okay!" Slow walking! ”

After sending Concubine Zhu away, Luo Ling looked up at the sky, at this time, Xiahou Yan must still be discussing his marriage with Xiyue in the main hall. Although he explained, she believed him.

But she was still a little sad in her heart, and she really wanted to stand by his side one day.

The situation in the main hall has long been unbearable, and Xiyue sat in the seat below the queen and kept staring at Xiahou Yan and Liu Caidie. If it weren't for the county lord Linying who was doing it next to her at the moment holding her hand, she really couldn't help it.

Emperor Chu Yu is the emperor, and he is not unhappy to see Xiahou Yan with his princess appearing here, as a capable man, three wives and four concubines are normal in the eyes of Emperor Chu Yu.

What's more, Xiahou Yan has only had a genuine princess by his side for so many years.

The ministers speculated about Xiahou Yan's sincerity this time, and the queen squinted her eyes and looked in the direction of Xiahou Yan and Liu Caidie with some dissatisfaction.

Xiahou Yan came for a long time, but he didn't say a word about the marriage. The queen is very upset, how can there be a reason for the princess to put forward it first?

After some greetings, the queen was afraid that Xiyue would be sick at the banquet, so she spoke,

"The nine kings of the Great Xun Kingdom came to marry Daliang this time, and Yue'er is the only princess of my Daliang. The status of the princess is extremely noble, and she is reluctant to marry the emperor and the palace of another country, not to mention marrying the princess of the Great Lord. But... Since the princess is interested in the nine kings, for the happiness of the princess, the emperor and the palace have to reluctantly cut their love and let the princess marry far away! The nine kings don't snub the princess because they are lucky to be concubines. ”

The queen's words were tepid, and they were just right. not only raised Xiyue's identity, but also secretly reminded Xiahou Yan not to be ignorant, at least to restrain himself in front of so many people.

The queen's words made Liu Caidie in Xiahou Yan's arms only angry, did the queen mean that she was a concubine?

Liu Caidie leaned into Xiahou Yan's arms, and the corners of her mouth hooked up a hint of provocation.

"I'm afraid the queen has misunderstood, the concubine is not the concubine next to the prince, the concubine is the princess of our country's first emperor who officially decreed marriage to His Royal Highness the Nine Kings!"

Xiahou Yan did not answer, Liu Caidie's words were regarded as acquiescence.

The queen's face was a little stiff, but those who stayed in the deep palace for a long time naturally wore a mask that was moody and temperamental.

The news that Xiahou Yan brought Liu Caidie to Liang Guo has long been spread, and it is not unusual. Among those ministers, there is also Hongling's father, who is naturally dissatisfied with the queen and Xiyue, and at this moment, he can't wait to see the queen and Xiyue embarrassed.

"Oh?" The queen pretended to be surprised, and cast her eyes on Xiahou Yan,

"Nine kings, Yue'er's status is extremely noble, and she is the pearl of the emperor's palm. In order to promote the friendship between the two countries, Yue'er married Daxun is a well-deserved princess of the Ninth Princess, so... The original Nine Princesses, how do the Nine Kings plan to be placed? ”

As soon as this remark came out, Liu Caidie wanted to mention that she was the ninth princess, that is, she wanted to destroy the friendly marriage between the two countries, which is not something that Liu Caidie can afford.

Liu Caidie's face froze, no matter how stupid she was at the moment, she could only stare dryly, and she couldn't say a word of rebuttal.

Xiahou Yan just said lightly, "The marriage with Daliang is a bit sudden, this king has already reported to my emperor, and Caidie is the princess given to this king by the emperor's brother before his death, how can this king treat him lightly?" Doesn't it chill the royal brother's heart? Princess Xiyue has a noble status, and she is the princess of your country. This king already has a wife, and marrying this king is indeed a little wronged! ”

After saying this, he looked embarrassed and took a sip of wine.

Although Liu Caidie knew that Xiahou Yan was just acting, she still couldn't help but show joy.

Everyone held their breath and looked at Xiahou Yan in unison.

In this main hall, there seems to be a very bad aura surging undercurrent, and if you are not careful, you will be involved in this whirlpool.

So, no one dared to speak.

Emperor Chu Yu's face was slightly angry, and his dangerous eyes shone towards Xiahou Yan.

"Nine Kings, do you want to regret your promise to marry Liang Guo? Don't forget, you have also been in Liang Country for ten years, Yue'er knows how you are doing, don't go too far, otherwise don't blame me for being polite! ”

Now in Emperor Chu Yu's territory, no matter how powerful Xiahou Yan is, he is invincible with two fists and four hands, and there is a certain coercion in his words.

But who is Xiahou Yan?

Although it is only the identity of a king, everyone knows that the person who really obeys the orders of the Great Lords is not the emperor Xiahou Jie. It's the Nine Kings of this high-ranking master, even Xiahou Jie gave him three points of courtesy, and obeyed his orders!

The identity is comparable to that of the Dark Emperor, so even if he appears in the Liang State as a foreign minister, his aura is not inferior to that of the emperor, let alone the Emperor of Liang.

He was not afraid of Emperor Chu Yu's threat at all, and only Luo Ling could threaten him.

"Hehe..."Xiahou Yan suddenly smiled, some demonic smiles were difficult to see, "This king has a better proposal, which can not only not wronged Princess Xiyue, but also live up to this king's beloved concubine Caidie..."

The hall was silent, Emperor Chu Yu's brows furrowed, and his face was dark.

Xiahou Yan ignored Emperor Chu Yu's expression and continued,

"This king promised the marriage of Daxunguo and Liang before that, but after thinking about it, it is inappropriate. Princess Xiyue has a noble status, and she grew up with this king since she was a child. Instead of committing herself to being the side concubine of this king, it is better to be the queen of our country! My emperor also has this intention, the position of the queen of our country has been vacant for a long time, and only the princess of your country is qualified to be the queen! ”

As soon as Xiahou Yan's words came out, it immediately caused a shock and commotion in the hall.

The ministers exchanged heads and talked about each other.

"The Nine Kings are here to marry the Great Emperor?"

"But before that, it was obviously the marriage of the Nine Kings and Princess Xiyue, but now how did it become the emperor of the Great Xun Kingdom to marry the queen?"

"The Empress of the Great Lord? It is indeed more glorious than the position of the princess! ”

"Daxun is also a big country, how many people want to send their daughters to the harem and don't have that chance? Some time ago, the princess Heqin who was sent by the defeat of the Zhou State was just a concubine! ”

"Well, the Queen's Throne..."

“......”

Emperor Chu Yu and the empress were also stunned and shocked. When he reacted, the anger on Chu Yudi's face was not there, and he even had some joy that could not be concealed.

That's the queen of a country, even if Xiahou Jie is incompetent, but the queen is the one who leads the harem and the world. Xiahou Yan didn't seem to have the idea of seizing the throne, otherwise he would have taken the throne of Xiahou Jie a long time ago.

Thinking about it this way, Emperor Chu Yu felt that Xiahou Yan's proposal was very good.

This made him not entangled, on the one hand, he was worried that Xiahou Yan would seize the throne in the future, and on the other hand, he was thinking about the glory of the royal family...

"But before, I promised you Xiahou Yan, but now you say that you are asking for the princess for your emperor, isn't it too child's play?"

Emperor Chu Yu still maintained the majesty of the emperor on his face, but in fact, he already had a vague idea in his heart.

Xiahou Yan seemed to be smiling even more evilly, of course he knew that this alone was not enough to satisfy Emperor Chu Yu's appetite, so he decided to give it a boost,

"Of course, as long as Princess Xiyue can become the queen of our country, my emperor is willing to use the five cities north of the Wujiang River as one of the dowry. The rest of the gold, silver and jewelry are innumerable, and there are thousands of silk and satin horses, and the emperor can bring up the wedding if he feels that it is insufficient. My emperor must meet the emperor's requirements to do it, I don't know what the emperor wants? ”

How about the wedding, Emperor Chu Yu felt that it was nothing, mainly because of the five cities! Generally, the marriage between the two countries will not take out the city as a dowry at all, and Xiahou Yan offered such a generous condition, which really makes people a little unbearable.

The queen is a smart person, and she is also quite satisfied with this condition, and the current position of the queen of the Great Monarch has been vacant for a long time, which is indeed a good opportunity, not to mention the rich dowry.

Generally, the marriage between the two countries is gold, silver, jewelry or something, just looking at Xiahou Yan's attitude towards Xiyue, you know that he doesn't like Xiyue, even if he marries back, I'm afraid he will be used as an ornament.

No matter how the setting moon is rampant in the Liang Palace, it is different when it comes to Daxun.

What's more, looking at Xiahou Yan's appearance, he seems to care about the princess beside him, and the queen expects that Xiyue will not be pleased.

At this moment, the queen was also relieved, and there was no displeasure, she lowered her voice in the ear of Emperor Chu Yu and said,

"Your Majesty, the concubines see that this matter is feasible, our Yue'er is much better than the princess to be the queen of Daxun!"

The queen thought that Xiyue would become the queen of Daxun, and she and the crown prince would have a more stable position in this Liang country in the future.

As soon as the words fell, an abrupt female voice broke the original harmony that had not been easy to appear, and the setting moon slapped the table angrily.

"No way!"

Lin Ying hurriedly whispered persuasion beside her, pulling Xiyue to let her sit down first. Who knew that Xiyue couldn't help it at this moment, and she couldn't control the anger in her heart anymore when she lost her mind.

"Brother Yan, you said you were going to marry me! I don't want to be a queen, I don't want to! How can you talk without words? Yue'er will not marry you in this life, even if it is a side concubine and a concubine, I am willing! ”

These words shocked everyone in the palace again, Princess Xiyue was so shameless? Upside down?

The queen's face suddenly turned pale, is Xiyue sick again? actually said in this public that he wanted to be a concubine for Xiahou Yan?
