Chapter 40: To add insult to injury
According to the rules, Sun Cheng handed over the post of the intersection of the two countries, which was regarded as the completion of the meeting. Sun Cheng's face was super bad, as if he had been wronged. After handing over the post, Sun Cheng gave up his hand and began to speak.
"Your Majesty the Emperor of the Celestial Empire, do you have any objections to the peace between the two countries?"
Sun Cheng's words made Emperor Tianwei unreasonable. This matter of harmony is something that the emperor of Western Xia personally agreed with him, for this matter, the two emperors frequently exchange letters between the two countries, and now, the princesses of Western Xia have arrived in the Celestial Empire, what objection does he have?
What did the messenger say? I'm quite satisfied with the matter of getting along. Emperor Tianwei put down the post and asked.
Sun Cheng said coldly: "Your Majesty, if you are quite satisfied with the matter of harmony, how can you connive at your prince and rob my Xixia princess's carriage in the middle of the night, wanting to be rude?" Excuse me, where does such satisfaction come from? I, the Western Xia Kingdom, really can't see the sincerity of the Celestial Empire for this peace. Isn't this a blatant deception that there is no one in the Western Xia Kingdom? ”
As soon as Sun Cheng's words came out, when he landed, above the court, hundreds of officials turned their heads and ears.
Emperor Tianwei's face was as black as a pig's liver. The envoys of the Western Xia kept saying that their prince was insulting the princess of the family, can this matter be small? This is a major matter of friendship between the two countries.
"What the hell is going on?" Emperor Tianwei's anger was extremely corrupt.
"Yesterday, my princess of Xixia went to the Zhongjin Guogong Mansion to mourn the Zhongjin Guogong, and on the way back to the palace late at night, I met the Duan Wang Ye of the Celestial Empire. Duan Wang Ye couldn't help but say, hijacked the princess's carriage, and forcibly took the princess to Duanwang's mansion to live, but the princess refused to obey and resisted to the death, so Duan Wang let the princess go...... The princess was frightened, did not dare to go back to the palace, fled to the post station late at night, to hang herself to die, if it was not for the timely discovery of the subordinates, my Xixia princess would have died on the land of the Celestial Empire. The emperor of the Celestial Empire, this matter is not trivial, please ask the emperor to be the master of my Xixia princess. Sun Cheng explained the cause and effect of the matter in one breath.
Everyone's eyes completely noticed King Duan's face. The sweat on Duanwang's face is getting more and more.
He would never have thought that Dugu Dieyi would dare to tear his face like this. She knew that when the court said that he was rude to her, it would not only bring right and wrong to King Duan, but also tarnish her name.
This woman is ruthless in the end, she would rather not have her own name, and she has to press King Duan in the water. She chose this time to let the Western Xia envoys come to see her, isn't this obviously to make things worse?
At this moment, he remembered what she said last night when he started to carry Dugu Dieyi: "You have the hat of the prince at the top, I'm afraid you can't wear it......"
Emperor Tianwei's face darkened, completely blackened. At this moment, he couldn't wait to slap the king hard.
Is he a pig-brain? Don't you know the significance of this harmony? It was originally right to win the favor of the princess of Xixia, but how could she use such an indiscriminate method?
"Father, the son just admired the princess of Xixia, and when he saw the princess returning to the palace alone, he was worried about the safety of the princess, so he stopped the princess's carriage and wanted to send the princess back to the palace. Duanwang's exculpation is still good. "The sons and daughters are right, they are sitting upright, as a prince, they will never do such a thing."
Do you sit upright? It's good to touch your conscience before you speak.
On the other hand, Zhou Mingjing's face was a little unbearable. King Duan and Empress Sun frequently threw olive branches to the princess of Western Xia, and he was not unheard of. It's just that in his opinion, his daughter is already a concubine, and it is not a big deal to pull the Xixia Kingdom as a backer and fight for the dragon throne for King Duan. So, I turned a blind eye.
Now, if something like this happens, then his eyes can't be closed.
"Lord Duan, if you treat each other politely and want to escort our princess back to the palace, the princess will definitely not cut your arm with a short knife. Duanwang's ability to reverse the female yellow is really good. Sun Cheng pressed forward step by step.
Emperor Tianwei gave Gonggong Cao a look, Gonggong Cao quickly stepped off the high platform, tore open King Duan's arm, and sure enough, a bloody wound was simply bandaged, and at this time, there were still blood stains oozing outside.
Emperor Tianwei's face really can't be hung up, it is obvious that King Duan must be telling a lie.
"My father didn't know, the son has always admired the princess of Xixia, when the Xixia Kingdom and the Celestial Empire agreed to make peace, the son of the minister and the third princess have a correspondence, I two in the letter of affection, early heart to heart. Last night's incident, the sons were abrupt, but they were just extremely admiring the third princess, and it was difficult to control their own ...... "King Duan is also extremely shrewd.
As soon as he said this, he instantly turned the matter into a small one. When it comes to state affairs, it is his insult to the Western Xia Kingdom, and when it comes down to the love of children, it is difficult for him to control himself.
"Lord Duan, at this time, do you still want to insult my Western Xia Kingdom like this? It's true that I'm no one in the Western Xia Kingdom, isn't it? Sun Cheng's voice suddenly increased a few points. My third princess of Western Xia, when did you receive a letter from you? ”
"......" Duanwang was speechless. If Sun Cheng wants to deny this, what else can he say?
King Qing looked surprised, and he arched his hand and said: "Father, since Brother Duan Wang said that he had a correspondence with the third princess, then, if you take the letters that have been exchanged, won't it prove Brother Duanwang's innocence?" ”
"If there are really these letters, then it just confirms the words of Brother Duanwang, he and Princess Xixia are just happy with each other, where is the insult?"
King Qing's words greatly exonerated King Duan. King Duan cast his grateful eyes on King Qing.
After listening to King Qing's words, Sun Cheng actually laughed: "It's good to get the letter, not only can it prove that Prince Duan is here, but it can also return the name of my third princess......
Everyone was in an uproar again, do these three princesses still have a concubine?
"The emperor of the Heavenly Dynasty doesn't know, in my Xixia, there are three three princesses, one of them is the one who came to make peace, and there are two, one is the third princess of the righteous daughter received by my Xixia ancestor emperor back then, she has been over fifty years ago, widowed for many years, and in the early years, she was admitted to the Xixia palace for the elderly, and she was called the three princesses of righteousness. There is another one, the third princess of the current emperor of Western Xia, who is still in infancy, and it is impossible to exchange letters with King Duan. Duanwang's letter, I'm afraid it hasn't been delivered to the hands of the third princess, and the only one who can communicate with Duanwang's letter is the third princess Yisan......" Sun Cheng's words made it clear that Dugu Dieyi could exchange letters with Duanwang.
King Qing held back a smile and said lukewarmly: "Second brother, did you send the letter to the third princess by mistake?" ”
Duanwang's face darkened, and it was completely darkened.
