Chapter 176: To each his own heart

Helan Mingyue, the lord of Shangyang County, and his father, Helan Jiuzhen, the king of Changshan, saw that Tuoba Jun tried his best to prevent Gu Chengcheng from becoming the future princess of the King of Nan'an, and they knew that Tuoba Jun had a deep affection for Gu Chengcheng.

After the banquet, King Changshan took Helan Mingyue and Helan Min directly to the prince's mansion to find the crown princess.

"Crown Princess Niangniang, what clues do you have to detect for Jun'er to prevent Gu Qingcheng from becoming the princess of Nan'an today?" King Changshan got straight to the point and asked the crown princess straightforwardly.

The crown princess clenched her fists tightly, and the corners of her mouth twitched slightly, making it difficult to speak.

Moreover, King Changshan's tone is quite aggressive, which she doesn't like.

King Changshan noticed that his tone seemed to make the crown princess dissatisfied, so he was busy and slowed down, and said with a worried face:

"Don't misunderstand, the crown princess and the two children came overnight for fear that King Gaoyang would accidentally wade into troubled waters, get into trouble, and repeat the prince's mistakes."

The crown princess saw that King Changshan was worried, and she was indeed concerned, but the so-called concern was chaotic, and her tone was heavier.

She was relieved: "Repeating the mistakes of the past? What does King Changshan mean by this? ”

"Niangniang, the people of today's birthday banquet, as long as they pay a little attention, they will see Your Majesty's deep affection for that Gu Qingcheng.

The prisoners of war were reduced to slavery, and the ancestors of the Great Wei Dynasty have been established for a long time, what a big deal.

King Gaoyang played before, and tried to show the pros and cons, but His Majesty didn't take it to heart and refuted it.

Gu Qingcheng was relaxed, in a few words, with only her three-inch incorruptible tongue, without court discussion, His Majesty ignored the opposition of the courtiers, and actually agreed, and immediately issued an order to release the slave. ”

"It's such a big deal to release slaves, I didn't expect it to be done by Gu Tingcheng." The crown princess also groaned.

"At that time, the king of Nan'an and Lu Zuo Zhaoyi asked His Majesty to admit that Gu Tingcheng was the future princess of the king of Nan'an, which was justified and well-founded, and Gu Zhongnian became a jade from it.

In such a situation, His Majesty was reluctant to announce that Gu Tingcheng was the future princess of King Nan'an.

That's Sima Zhao's heart, everyone knows it.

Later, the ancestor decreed that no one should force Gu Qingcheng's marriage, and His Majesty also took advantage of the situation to dissolve their marriage contract.

That's just a last resort, forced by the situation, otherwise this king will look at His Majesty, and he would be eager to take care of Allure as a concubine on the spot. King Changshan said again.

"Jun'er really tried her best to prevent His Majesty from recognizing the future princess of King Nan'an, and the palace felt very inappropriate at that time." The crown princess sighed carelessly.

King Changshan said again:

"Who can predict the future, now that the covenant between Gu Tingcheng and Nan'an Wang Doll has been dissolved, Your Majesty is probably an expedient measure, and it will definitely leave Gu Tingcheng in the palace and slowly plan it.

And King Nan'an couldn't wait for His Majesty to confirm his marriage contract with Gu Tingcheng at that time, which shows that King Nan'an also has a deep love for that Gu Tingcheng, and he is determined to win.

Although His Royal Highness King Gaoyang did not say anything out of the ordinary, he only obstructed this matter by saying that Xianbei did not have a doll parent.

But according to this king's view, His Royal Highness King Gaoyang is not so simple about Gu Qingcheng. ”

The crown princess's face was a little unbearable, and of course, she was also full of worries.

"This king is worried that King Gaoyang will also be bewitched by that Gu Chengcheng.

Offending a king of Nan'an will outweigh the losses, and will only make others enjoy the benefits of the fisherman.

What's more, will it offend Your Majesty? Faced with enemies on all sides, how can we gain a foothold in the power struggle of deceit? King Chang Shan shook his head with a worried face.

Seeing that the crown princess's eyebrows were getting tighter and tighter, he said earnestly:

"Everything in the world belongs to Your Majesty. The people and things that His Majesty has taken a fancy to him will not allow others to touch.

Your Majesty is iron-blooded and resolute, and others are secretly rumoring that the death of the crown prince was related to Your Majesty.

The prince was slandered and greedy for ink, but before he could find out, he was poisoned.

That Gu Qingcheng is His Majesty's heart, if others covet it, do you say Your Majesty, will you show mercy?

Although King Gaoyang has made great achievements in war and is deeply favored by His Majesty, there are more than a dozen princes of His Majesty, and there are countless emperors and grandchildren.

And Gu Qingcheng is only one person.

The crown prince is still not tolerated, let alone the eldest grandson of the emperor?

While King Gaoyang has not yet fallen into the mud and is charmed by that demon, the crown princess should remind His Royal Highness King Gaoyang as soon as possible, everything is important for the future foundation! ”

"What King Changshan is worried about is really what this palace is worried about." The crown princess bowed.

She often made such a thorough analysis by the king of the mountain even more worried.

After a pause, she added:

"It's just that Jun'er has always been an assertive person, and if he thinks about it, even ten horses won't be able to pull it back."

"That's why I want to take advantage of the fact that King Gaoyang has not yet fallen into the mud, and ask him to restrain himself from the precipice." Changshan King Road.

“…… Reined? The crown princess muttered.

King Chang Shan's face was nervous:

"In this current situation, it's too late to send a beauty to Your Majesty and please Your Majesty.

How can you covet the person Your Majesty likes, isn't that asking for hardships and killing yourself? ”

"Brother-in-law's words, are they too much?" The crown princess's face sank and she was slightly displeased.

Fang Cai Chang Mountain King's sentence killed himself, but it touched her scales.

How can her son tolerate disrespect!

"Oops...... Look at your brother-in-law's mouth, as soon as he is nervous, he will be incoherent. King Changshan hurriedly slapped his mouth.

"That's it." The crown princess also understood.

"Auntie, although His Royal Highness Cousin is an assertive person, he is also a filial person." Helan Mingyue approached Princess Lu, took the princess's hand and said coquettishly.

Helan Mingyue's move gave the crown princess a little comfort.

Helan Mingyue continued: "Aunt is his mother's concubine, His Royal Highness cousin doesn't listen to other people's words, but he doesn't dare to disobey his own mother's words." ”

"If your cousin were a docile horse, your aunt wouldn't be so worried." The crown princess sighed, "But he is an unrestrained wild horse! ”

"No matter how wild the horse is, it will listen to its mother." Helan Mingyue said with a smile.

The crown princess shook her head slightly: "And he seems to have said that he needs a princess who is all over the country to be worthy of him."

Now that Liu Song's Princess Shanyin and Khotan's Princess Xianji are both in Great Wei, does Jun'er fall in love with Liu Song or Khotan's princess? ”

"Oh, my princess, aunt, Liu Song has a bad heart and has been sending people to hunt down His Royal Highness King Gaoyang.

His Royal Highness almost lost his life at the hands of the assassins several times, but His Royal Highness King Gaoyang has been hiding from you and not daring to let you know, for fear that you will worry.

You must not be nostalgic for Princess Liu Song, that is not a person with the same heart as us. King Changshan said bitterly.

"What King Changshan said is extremely true, he Liu Song sent someone to assassinate the palace Jun'er, that is, to pay the city to me Jun'er, and the palace is not uncommon!" The crown princess said angrily.

"Even the princess of Khotan is ill-intentioned, and she may not really love Her Highness cousin." Helan Mingyue also pouted.

The crown princess said worriedly:

"It's just that Jun'er has always done his own thing, and even the side concubine refused to accept it in the early years, but now he wants to defend his father's system, so he has even more excuses to shirk."

"How's that okay?" King Changshan said with a sad face.

"Father, don't worry, you can always think of a solution." He Lanmin persuaded on the side.

King Chang Shan still shook his head worriedly:

"The king of Nan'an has Lu Zuo Zhaoyi, the king of Dongping is the adopted son of the queen's mother, and the queen has no parents and sons, so she can only rely on the king of Dongping.

The crown prince is gone, and His Royal Highness King Gaoyang does not like to associate with courtiers privately.

In recent years, he has been assassinated repeatedly, in case there is any trouble, His Royal Highness King Gaoyang is a lonely palm. ”

"Father, isn't Your Highness secretly taking care of you behind?" Helan Min said again.

"That's natural, we are a family, your aunt and your mother are sisters, breaking bones and tendons." King Changshan said first.

"Yes, how can my father look at His Highness My Cousin and make any mistakes." Helan Mingyue also said.

"Aunt knows you all have your cousin's heart." The crown princess patted Helan Mingyue's hand and smiled.

Although Helan Mingyue was rude outside, in front of the crown princess, she was docile and well-behaved like a kitten, for fear that the crown princess and King Gaoyang would not like her.

King Changshan thought about it for a moment and said:

"For today's plan, in order to prevent His Majesty from being suspicious of His Royal Highness King Gaoyang, the crown princess Niangniang should take the initiative to ask for a decree to choose a princess for King Gaoyang.

In this way, His Majesty's doubts about King Gaoyang's performance today will be relieved. ”

Princess Lu looked at Helan Mingyue, she had always regarded her as her daughter, and she had always had the heart to let her be the princess of Jun'er.

It's just that Jun'er has been shirking.

"Why doesn't this palace want Mingyue to marry as soon as possible and add a few princes and grandchildren to the prince's mansion, but Jun'er has always refused." The crown princess said.

After a pause, he said, "Besides, Jun'er still has to abide by the system." ”

"Niangniang, the current situation is not whether King Gaoyang is willing or not.

Niangniang only needs to ask His Majesty for a decree to determine the title of the princess first.

Reassuring His Majesty is the best policy. "Changshan Wang Road.

The crown princess also bowed her head and said: "Brother-in-law is reasonable, this palace will ask Your Majesty for advice as soon as possible." ”

"Father, my son has been in love with Princess Shanggu for a long time, why don't my father and the princess and aunt ask Your Majesty for advice." Helan Min said.

The crown princess frowned slightly, remembering that Prince Liu Song was in Great Wei.

Helan Mindu continued:

"In this way, my sister will marry King Gaoyang, and I will marry Princess Shanggu, and our relationship will become tighter and tighter, and Your Majesty will entrust His Royal Highness King Gaoyang with important responsibilities."

"Crown Princess Niangniang, what do you think of Mindu's opinion?" King Changshan did not reply to his son, but asked the crown princess first.

"Didn't Liu Ziye, the crown prince of Liu Song, come to Pingcheng and ask to marry Princess Shanggu?" The crown princess frowned.

"Your Majesty talked about this matter in the court, but listening to Your Majesty's tone, you don't want to marry Princess Shanggu to Liu Song.

can accept him Liu Song's princess to marry.

As for which prince to marry Princess San'in, His Majesty has not decided. King Changshan pouted slightly.

The crown princess thought for a moment and said:

"In terms of talent and family background, Min is considered to be the best choice.

But the sons of other vassal kings are also young talents, and there are many talents.

King Changshan may wish to ask His Majesty, and no one can surprise whether His Majesty can agree.

But if His Majesty can agree, everyone will be happy, and in the Changshan Palace, the Prince's Mansion, they will all benefit and no harm. ”

"Okay, then recently, this king will enter the palace with the crown princess?" Changshan King Road.

"Okay." The crown princess agreed, after all, this is a good thing for her and her sister.

Her sister has been bedridden, and she, as a younger sister, has to help watch over her sister's children.

Helan Mingyue and Helan Min both left the Prince's Mansion with smiles on their faces.

"You two, you have to cheer up your father, but your father's mouth is dry, so he persuaded your princess and aunt to take the initiative to ask for orders." King Changshan told his children again.

"Got it, Father......" Helan Mingyue and Helan Min both said with a smile.

Li Jun and Li Shuang'er returned to the Li Mansion, and Li Jun was naturally full of spring breeze.

As soon as he arrived at the mansion, he looked at the plaque at the door of the mansion and said to the housekeeper: "Tomorrow, I will immediately order someone to repair the mansion, and this plaque should also be replaced with the Dunqiu Palace." ”

"No, my lord." The housekeeper smiled and said respectfully.

Li Shuang'er was happy when she was sealed, and in an instant, she thought that Gu Tingcheng's reward was much more glorious than her, and she was a green leaf at best.

It's some small favors from His Majesty!

She was silent all the way back, and when she returned to the house, she also had a black face.

Li Jun's wife, Xu, suddenly jumped from the general's wife to the princess, and she was naturally happy.

Even the status of those concubines jumped all at once, and naturally all of them were dancing with their eyebrows.

The Xu family led Li Jun's concubines and greeted each other with a smile, in addition to congratulating Li Jun respectfully, he also did not forget to congratulate Li Shuang'er.

This sister-in-law is different from other people's sisters-in-law, in the house, the sisters-in-law have to look at her face.

Li Shuang'er had a cold face and said indifferently: "It's just a little county lord, people are not only county lords but also princesses, what is there to congratulate!" ”

The sisters-in-law looked at each other.

After Li Shuang'er finished speaking, she went back to the room angrily.

"Shuang'er didn't eat anything today, you can make her some food that she likes to eat on weekdays." Li Jun looked at Li Shuang'er's angry back and said.

He knew that Gu Tingcheng and the king of Nan'an had withdrawn from each other, and eighty percent of it was because of Tuoba Jun, and he knew his sister's thoughts, so he asked his wife to make her some favorite food on weekdays.

Who knew that Li Shuang'er saw those sumptuous suppers and scolded angrily: "Do you still think that your aunt and grandmother are not fat enough and ugly enough?" ”

"Where is Shuang'er sister ugly and fat?" Li Jun's wife, Xu, said with a smile.

"Yes, we are petite and delicate, heroic heroines." Li Jun's concubine also complimented.

"Heroines? That is to say, I don't have the tenderness of my daughter's family anymore? Li Shuang'er looked gloomy again, and said with neither yin nor yang, "The implication is that no one likes me." Can't I get married? ”

The sisters-in-law glanced at each other, and when they saw Li Shuang'er messing around, it was really difficult to serve.

"My little aunt and grandmother, this good majesty has been rewarded, who else dares to make my aunt and grandmother unhappy?" Li Jun's wife asked softly.

Li Shuang'er didn't answer her sister-in-law's words, but only glared at them through gritted teeth.

Li Jun's wife and concubine had to swallow their anger and withdraw the supper.

And Li Shuang'er lay on the bed, sleepless all night, eager to shave Gu Allure's head in the middle of the night, ruining her appearance.

Imagining that Gu Qingcheng was ruined by himself, the corners of his mouth curled, and finally fell asleep sweetly.

Of course, Anlingtina returned to the Summer Palace and lay on the bed, also tossing and turning.

Thinking that Gu Qingcheng resolutely retreated from Tuoba Yu, the biggest possibility was that he had a relationship with Tuoba Yu.

Could it be that I really never have a chance to come out again?

In the middle of the night, when I had an unbearable headache, the masked ghost king came to the dark again.

At night, the ghost king generally did not speak, but only lit the acupuncture points of Anlingtina, so that she could not speak.

The ghost king lingered with her tonight, but he seemed to be very excited and enthusiastic......

But eventually, her headache was relieved.

Leaving the palace, Tuoba Jun and Yi Hun returned to Dongping Wangfu overnight, and the two discussed in secret.

"Your Highness, I didn't expect this Gu Qingcheng to be a demon girl, and even Your Majesty was so fascinated by her that she obeyed her words." Yihun said fiercely: "Not except for her, it's really a stumbling block for His Highness!" ”

Tuoba Han also gritted his teeth and said: "I didn't expect this king to be punished by the ancestor again and again for that demon girl, and I have to go to the temple tomorrow to think about it, how can this king easily spare her!" ”

"This demon girl is now protected by His Majesty and the Ancestors, and it is not easy to attack her." Yi Hun was a little helpless.

"Don't worry, if you can escape the first day of junior high school, you can't hide from the fifteenth, there will always be a chance!" Tuoba Han Road.

Yihun groaned for a long time before gritting his teeth and saying:

"That Gu Tingcheng is in the countryside, raised by her nurse, you have to find out the old bottom of Gu Tingcheng again, and see what kind of people she is in the countryside who can cultivate her into a fine!"

"Yes, as long as you find out Gu Qingcheng's weakness, you can cure her well!" Tuoba Han is also evil.

Tuoba Han and Yi Hun's poisonous plan was discovered by Gu Tingcheng, and she was even awarded the title of the county lord of Anping, and she also released the slaves, how could she swallow this breath.

This night, they were in a very bad mood, and they beat the female slaves with a lot of abuse, venting their ferocious animal desires, and venting all the suffocation in their hearts to them.

After the banquet, those who had damaged the interests of the Xianbei nobles gathered in groups to discuss and see if there was any way to turn the tide.

The news of the release of slaves spread like a plague......

On this night, no one in the entire capital seemed to be able to sleep peacefully......
