Chapter 391: Dedication to the Northern Spirit

After a lively day, the palace held a wedding banquet in the evening to entertain guests. Hanbei Eagle was in a good mood, and he was actually drinking to a dry glass. After a hundred glasses, he was not drunk at all, but the more he drank, the more energetic he became, and later he even exchanged a big bowl of wine with Xiahou Shuojie, and after a while, even Nan Guying and Guo Zidi were pulled into the wine game by them.

The men drank and the women chatted, and they made trouble until the third watch, and they didn't see the intention of dispersing.

The ministers had gradually taken their leave and returned home, and only those who lived in the palace remained at the feast. Sima Hongyan sent people to send the two pregnant women back to the palace to rest, and also asked the sisters to go back, and she stayed here to accompany Nan Guying.

Han Beiying saw that the dignified phoenix lord did not have the frame of the queen of a country at this moment, and the supple and quiet companion behind her husband was very virtuous and sensible, and she admired Sima Hongyan for knowing how to behave in the world and knowing how to give face to men. can advance and retreat, both rigid and soft, no wonder Xiahou Shuojie, the king of Yanxi, can assist her so willingly.

In the end, everyone was full of wine and food, and they were all satisfied and reluctantly dispersed.

On the way back to Fengming Palace, Nan Guying held Sima Hongyan's hand tightly, and his heart was excited. I drank so happily today that everyone talked about it, got carried away, and couldn't get enough of it. And his wife didn't have the slightest emperor's frame, she stayed by her side like a little woman, didn't say much, and gave him enough face. has such a sensible and sensible wife, I really don't know how many lifetimes it is a good blessing.

Husbands and wives have a heart-to-heart connection, and there is no need to say those polite words of thanks. After the two returned to the palace, Nan Guying showed his might and comforted his wife well, until his wife repeatedly told him to forgive. The room is full of spring, and the tenderness and sweetness are no weaker than their wedding night.

After Li Siyu and Han Miaoqi got married, they were like glue and loved each other. Hanbei Ying saw that her daughter was happy, and her son-in-law cared for her, and she felt content.

On this day, Hanbeiying came to see Sima Hongyan, and after the two sides sat down, Hanbeiying once again expressed his gratitude to Sima Hongyan. Sima Hongyan even said politely, Li Siyu and Han Miaoqi are in love, and she naturally wants to fulfill it.

After a few polite words, Hanbei Ying stopped talking, and looked at the people waiting around him. Sima Hongyan understood and sent people out, and only Sima Hongyan and Han Beiying were left in the house.

Han Beiying said at this time: "Lord Feng is young and promising, and he governs the country well, and the old man admires it very much." I talked with King Yanxi for a long time that day, and he also praised Lord Feng. The old man has been thinking about it for a long time these days, and he knows that Lord Feng is a person who does great things, so the old man has a reluctant request! ”

Sima Hongyan smiled lightly and said, "You are the Emperor of the Northern Spirit, and you are many years older than me, so I will call you Uncle Han." Today we have a marriage friendship between us, such a close relationship, if you have something to say, please say it directly, as long as I can do it, I will never refuse. ”

Hanbei Ying said: "Lord Meng Feng doesn't dislike it, let my nine daughters marry Prime Minister Zuo, I heard that Lord Feng treats Miaoqi like a sister." Now Beiling has lived a better life through trade with Yanling, and all of this is thanks to the kindness of the Phoenix Lord. The old man also heard that since Xiyue became the western capital of Yanling, the Feng lord has made great efforts to govern the western capital and develop industrial and commercial trade. Today's Western Capital is also economically prosperous, the people are rich, and all hearts are one. The old man thinks that the future development of Beiling is inseparable from the support of Yanling, rather than being alone in the snowy mountains and isolated, it is better to simply include it in the territory of Yanling, and it will all be governed by the Phoenix Lord, I don't know if the Phoenix Lord is willing? ”

Although Sima Hongyan had this plan, he was still taken aback by Han Beiying's direct proposal. She hurriedly said: "I can't afford Uncle Han's words, how can Beiling's hundreds of years of inheritance be easily let go of me, a young woman?" If Uncle Han has any concerns, you don't have to, please think twice about this matter! ”

Han Beiying said: "Since Lord Feng calls me 'uncle' today, then I don't need to be polite, let alone beat around the bush." I know that Lord Feng is concerned about the overall situation of the world, and the five countries stood side by side before, restrained each other, guarded against each other, and used all their energy on open and secret fighting, how can it develop like this today? Beiling originally belonged to Yanling, and it was only because of the danger of the snow-capped mountains that it became another vein of Beiling. The old man had no other wishes, only hoped that the people of Beiling could live a stable life. Beiling has a harsh climate and declining resources, and if it continues to be maverick, it will face the disaster of destroying the country. ”

Sima Hongyan said: "Uncle Han's words are serious, now that the road under the ice has been smooth, and he will no longer suffer from the heavy snow sealing the mountain, Yanling will increase trade with Beiling more in the future, and Beiling will be fine." ”

Hanbei Ying said: "Lord Feng is benevolent and righteous, the old man is impressed." But after all, if the name is not right, it is not good, Yanling has given Beiling too much help over the years, if it were not for Yanling, Beiling would have existed in name only. The old man is not a person who does not know the times, Beiling can only survive by relying on Yanling, why should the old man be obsessed with the false name of the emperor? Take the Western Capital as an example, isn't the current King of Yanxi living with more status and dignity than the original Emperor of Xiyue? ”

Han Beiying's language is sincere, and his feelings are born from the heart, Sima Hongyan can hear that Han Beiying is not testing himself. This old man was so open-minded that Sima Hongyan secretly admired him. She is not a person who is good at hypocrisy, and Hanbei Ying's proposal is exactly what she wants. So at the moment, he is no longer hypocritical, let alone polite words of hypocrisy and wrongdoing.

Sima Hongyan said bluntly: "Uncle Han understands righteousness and admires it. Then, according to Uncle Han's words, I accept Beiling as the territory of Yanling. In the future, it will be the same as the Western Capital, Beiling will be the northern capital of Yanling, and Uncle Han will be the 'King of Yanbei', and he will still be in charge of all matters in the Northern Capital. Since then, the northern capital and the central capital have supported each other, so that the people can live a stable and stable life. ”

Hanbei Ying was relieved, his face was happy, and he was about to bow down to Sima Hongyan.

Sima Hongyan hurriedly got up and hugged Hanbei Ying, and said, "Since Uncle Han has become the king of Yanbei, then we must follow the rules of Yanling, and we will not bow down in the future." ”

Han Beiying smiled and said continuously: "Lord Feng is friendly and treats people equally. The old man obeys orders, obeys! ”

Seeing Han Beiying's happiness from the bottom of his heart, Sima Hongyan was also very pleased, it seemed that the move of marrying relatives really played an unexpected role.

The next day, Sima Hongyan convened hundreds of officials to open a grand court meeting and invited Hanbei Ying to participate. At this time, Xiahou Shuojie, the king of Yanxi, was also still in the capital of Yanling and was also invited to participate.

At the court meeting, Sima Hongyan solemnly announced that Beiling would be officially included in the territory of Yanling from today, and would be renamed Yanling Northern Capital, and appointed Hanbei Ying as the first king of Yanbei and the general leader of the government affairs of the Northern Capital.

As soon as these words came out, they shocked the government and the opposition. No one expected that a marriage would make the Emperor of Beiling give the entire Beiling Kingdom to Yanling as a dowry, and the political methods of the Feng lord were really unfathomable and extremely clever.

In fact, after being surprised and thinking about it carefully, Beiling's move today is also in line with public opinion and wise. Everyone in the world knows that Beiling is poor, lacks resources, and although it is an independent country, it is miserable to survive. Now that it is included in Yanling, it will definitely be taken care of by the Phoenix Lord, just like today's Western Capital, but it can gain new vitality.

When I think about it, everyone is relieved. Looking at the current King of Yanxi, his life was much more nourishing than that of the original Xiyue Emperor, and Hanbeiying's doing this can be called "old and calculating".

Sima Hongyan saw that when the order was announced, the people of Beiling did not show much surprise, it seems that the meaning of Hanbei Ying's induction was early on. It's just that this time he came to discuss this matter with him through his daughter's marriage, Sima Hongyan secretly thought that Jiang was still old and spicy, and he saw it longer than others.

The big thing must be, and Sima Hongyan issued a phoenix decree to the whole world to inform him of the matter. This time, it was inevitable that it would cause an uproar in the world.

Everything has been decided, Hanbei Ying proposed to go back, Beiling has become the northern capital of Yanling, and many things have to be dealt with back. However, before leaving, Han Beiying made another request, that is, to let the children who came to Yanling with him this time stay in Yanling to learn some skills.

In fact, Sima Hongyan knew that Hanbei Ying was leaving protons in Yanling in disguise, so as to reassure her. However, Sima Hongyan didn't like to do this kind of thing to blackmail others, so he said to Han Beiying: "If the princes are willing to go back to the Northern Capital, let them go back." If you voluntarily stay in Yanling Zhongdu, it is also arbitrary. In short, it is completely voluntary, not forced. ”

For this reason, Hanbei Eagle was moved again. Unexpectedly, when Han Beiying asked his children if they were willing to stay in Yanling to learn some knowledge, everyone chose to stay.

Since the sons and daughters of Hanbei Eagle have seen the reborn ninth sister Han Miaoqi, who is not envious and yearning, as soon as they heard that they could stay in Yanling to study, they all danced with their eyebrows, and they were extremely happy. They all know that Yanling Zhongdu is rich and prosperous, and compared with the ice and snow of the northern capital, it is simply a day and a place.

However, Sima Hongyan reminded them: "Staying in Yanling is just to teach you knowledge and skills, so that you can go back to contribute to the Northern Capital in the future, if you think that staying in Zhongdu will be able to live a good life without worrying about food and clothing, it is a miscalculation." And the study time will never exceed three years, and you will have to go back to the northern capital to learn whatever you do. ”

Sima Hongyan knew that these sons of the world came from the bitter land and longed for the life of Yanling, so they must not be allowed to become a bunch of parasites in Yanling. They can stay in Yanling for only one purpose, which is to study, and other than that, they are no different from ordinary people, and they do not have any special treatment. And as soon as the semester is over, I have to go back.

Han Beiying left very satisfied, he believed that his children would definitely bring valuable knowledge and skills back to Beidu after studying in Yanling Zhongdu for a few years.

Sima Hongyan arranged the children of King Yanbei in a mansion in the capital, assigned special people to take care of them, and arranged to study in the school in Yanling on weekdays. Beiling's cultural background is not high, and many things these people have to learn from scratch.

Not letting them live in the palace is not to ignore them, but a disguised urge, requiring them to live and study independently. Since they want to contribute to the northern capital in the future, they must put down their status as princes and princesses from now on, and start everything from scratch. The so-called ten years of cold windows out of students, there is a certain truth. Food and clothing are worry-free, and you will only enjoy the real skills that you can learn.

Sima Hongyan's arrangement of these princes in the northern capital made Li Siyu feel a little harsh, and he wanted to intercede with Lord Feng, but he was stopped by his wife Han Miaoqi and persuaded Li Siyu not to doubt Lord Feng's arrangement, she believed that Lord Feng did this for the good of her brothers and sisters. When Sima Hongyan heard this, he couldn't help but glance at his wife Han Miaoqi.
