Chapter 198: Nanfeng Yi Proposes Marriage
I saw a red-robed man who was also handsome and extraordinary, holding a folding fan in his hand on a cold day, and slowly walked in while fanning the wind.
When Wang Jibao saw the visitor, he couldn't help but wonder: This guy has been waiting at the door for so long, is it for this kind of appearance effect?
Nanfeng Yi felt a little uncomfortable as he walked.
He sniffed and said secretly: Not good. The snot is about to come out.
So, he immediately put away the folding fan, took out a white handkerchief from his arms, and wiped his nose as if at random.
Then, he walked to the charcoal stove in front of Wang Xibao very chicly, and threw the handkerchief used to wipe his nose into it very chicly.
Burn the bun!
Seeing Wang Jibao staring at Nanfeng Yi, Zhu Linxi stretched out his hand to cover her eyes, put his ear to her and said, "Don't look at other men." β
Wang Jibao muttered in a low voice: "Stingy." β
Look at how handsome guys are so eye-catching! I only look at Lin Xi alone every day, what if I get aesthetic fatigue?
"I'm just stingy!" After Zhu Linxi said this, he said very seriously: "You don't have to ask me, I won't stare at other women." β
All right. Consciousness is quite high.
Nanfeng Yi was not in a hurry to salute Emperor Yongsheng. He followed Zhu Linxi's example and went to greet the people he was most familiar with first.
The first thing he came to was, of course, the table in Prince Jing's Mansion where the prince and the prince were sitting.
After seeing Prince Jing, Nanfeng greeted Prince Jing respectfully and said, "Grandfather! β
This grandfather made the mouths of many people in the hall open into an "O" shape.
What's going on here?
The king of Shaojun of Shaoguo, who had just come in, had already surprised them.
Unexpectedly, he was the fiancΓ© of Princess Bao, the son of the former idle king.
Why did this newcomer call Prince Jing "grandfather" again.
Grandfather? Jing Boyu, the son of Prince Jing and the current eldest princess Xia Yiping's concubine, couldn't help but stand up from Prince Jing's side.
He slowly walked up to Nanfeng Yi, looked him up and down, and then said very excitedly: "Are you Brother Yi?" β
When Prince Jing celebrated his 60th birthday the year before last, Nanfeng Yi secretly came to Yongdu and met Prince Jing, but he did not see Jing Boyu. Therefore, strictly speaking, this time it was the first time that they had met as father and son after Nanfeng left Yongdu that year.
Although Jing Boyu knew that this son's actual identity was the fifth prince of Dingguo. But when Nan Fengyi came in just now, he didn't let the chamberlain report, so he didn't dare to confirm that this person was the former Jing Yi.
After Nanfeng greeted Jing Boyu briefly, he said lightly: "Hello uncle!" β
For his former father, Nan Fengyi's impression of him was quite bad. But in fact, this person is not his biological father after all, so the requirements for him in my heart are not as high as before.
Now Jing Boyu can only be a person who is not much stronger than a stranger to Nanfeng Yi. But no matter what, he is still the husband of his own aunt, so the respect he should have can still be had.
"Good. I didn't expect you to grow so big. Looking at his former son-in-law, Jing Boyu also had mixed feelings in his heart. But he also knew that he had done a lot of things to be sorry for him and his aunt, so he didn't have the face to stay here any longer. I had to nod my head and sit back in my seat.
Xia Yiping asked Jing Boyu quietly: "Who is he?" β
After Jing Boyu calmed down a little, he replied: "I have decided the five princes." I used to be the sister-in-law Jing Yi. No, it should be called Nanfeng Yi now. β
Although she had already guessed who this person was, after it was really confirmed, Xia Yiping still felt quite surprised.
Nanfeng Yi's iconic red clothes, Xia Yiping could guess. The rest of the people present could naturally guess a lot.
The envoys who followed Nanfeng Yi then also met with Emperor Yongsheng on behalf of Dingguo and the etiquette of diplomatic relations.
After the salute, the leader of them spoke: "We have also come to your country to make a request for peace with your country, also by the order of His Majesty the Emperor. I hope that the Emperor of Yongguo can marry the princess of your country's Heshun Marquis Mansion and Zhenguo to me and make the five princes of the country concubines. β
Although she knew that the purpose of Nanfeng's trip was for Bao Mei, this Bao Mei had already made a marriage with Brother Xi. This made Emperor Yongsheng feel quite embarrassed.
After thinking about it for a while, he said: "That, Princess Zhenguo had a marriage contract with the king of Shaojun in Shaoguo in her early years. If the five princes of your country want to get along, it's best to choose someone else. β
Nanfeng immediately opened his mouth and said, "No." This prince came this time for Princess Bao alone. β
Emperor Yongsheng continued: "The matter of the marriage between Sister Kebao and Brother Xi'er is probably something that everyone knows and knows about in Dayong. β
Nanfeng Yi didn't care, and smiled slightly: "How can that marriage contract be counted?" If this prince is not mistaken, Bao Mei was an oral marriage contract with the prince of your country. Now this person is the king of Shaojun in Shaoguo, and his identity has changed, so naturally the marriage contract should not be counted. What's more, the parties still have a verbal marriage contract. β
Zhu Linxi smiled unconsciously after hearing this, and then slowly stood up and said, "Who said that this king was just a relative to Bao Mei as the son of the original idle king?" After Zhu Linxi finished speaking, he said respectfully to the prince: "Father-in-law, do you have to make this matter clear in front of everyone?" β
Hearing Zhu Linxi say this, Wang Ziyi had no choice but to stand up and say aloud to everyone: "Indeed, Brother Xi didn't just make a verbal marriage contract with Bao Mei as the son of the original idle king. His father, the general of Shaoguo Pingxi, who is now the regent of Shaoguo, then officially wrote a formal letter of appointment to us and the Shunhou Mansion, and the two sides also exchanged relatives and tokens. Therefore, Bao Mei and Brother Xi have indeed married with Brother Xi'er's true identity. This marriage is already a sure thing, and it must not be changed. β
When Nanfeng heard it, he knew that he might be out of play. After all, Zhu Linxi had lived in the Marquis Heshun Mansion for so long, and he was Wang Ziyi's apprentice, so the relationship between them was very deep. However, he was not willing to be eliminated like this.
So he turned to Emperor Yongsheng and said: "Emperor Yong, if Yongguo and I will marry, I will guarantee that I will never go to war with Yongguo within ten years." "This is a bargaining chip given to him by his father before he comes.
In the past few years, Dingguo has destroyed several small countries around it. Land and population are increasing year by year. I am afraid that in a few years, it will surpass the current Dayong and become the largest country in the Hongwu Continent.
A discerning person knows at a glance that the purpose of the country is definitely not just a few small countries. Their next target is either the neighboring country of Shao or the country of Yong.
They are like a leopard snooping for food, waiting for a perfect moment to make a move.
Today, Nanfeng Yi is so arrogant to announce their ambitions to the world, what is its purpose? Is this a declaration of war on the world?
Seeing the people below talking and talking, Emperor Yongsheng's brows were also furrowed deeply.
This is a demonstration of the red fruit to them!
Zhu Linxi stood up with a slight smile, stared at Nanfeng Yi tightly with his eyes, and said, "Ten years without a war?" Then he sneered and said, "What about ten years from now?" β
Nanfeng Yi didn't think about it for so long, and no one knew what would happen ten years later. But as long as he can marry Wang Jibao, he doesn't care what will happen in the future.
Seeing that he didn't say anything more, Zhu Linxi continued to say coldly: "If you really marry Baomei, where are you going to put her in ten years?" Can you make her watch you Dingguo attack Yongguo and ignore it? Do you allow an enemy princess who may betray her country at any time and contribute to her own country? Zhu Linxi paused, and said in an accentuated tone: "Nanfeng Yi!" You are so selfish! β
After Zhu Linxi finished speaking, he turned his head to look at Wang Jibao, and then took her hand, his ten fingers clasped.
After smiling, he turned to face Nanfeng Yi again. He raised his voice a little more and said, "What's more, what I said just now is all hypothesis. Do you treat our Shaoguo as an ornament? Do you treat me Zhu Linxi as a dead man? After saying this, Zhu Linxi swept the people present with his eyes coldly, and said loudly: "Today, I, Zhu Linxi, will leave my words here." Whoever wants to snatch Bao Mei from me must be ready to die. Remember, don't even think about it! Baomei can only be my Zhu Linxi's, and it will always be my alone. I'm born! She's born! I'm dead! She's dead! β
Domineering!
But the question is, why didn't she give birth! I'm born! She's dead! What about me dying? Why should she be the one who was martyred? Don't you think that Zhu Linxi children's shoes, don't you think that saying this is more affectionate?
Although Zhu Linxi's previous words were awe-inspiring, as long as he thought about Wang Jibao marrying someone else, his heart hurt a lot. If Emperor Yongsheng agreed with a twitch of his head, he would have to wash here in blood, and then take Wang Xibao's family and him to Shaoguo.
Emperor Yongsheng and others were stunned by Zhu Linxi's words. Oh, yes! This continent is not only Dingguo, but only one can threaten Dayong. Although this Shaoguo is temporarily ranked third, who can say for sure what will happen in the future?
Zhu Linxi saw that what he said before had already worked. So he continued to explain to everyone what was the real purpose of Dingguo's trip?
"Now the entire Hongwu Continent is the strongest in Yongguo, Dingguo and our Shaoguo. But the real ambition is Dingguo, which is temporarily in second place. Their goal is not to catch up with Yongguo and rank first. Their real purpose is to wipe out all of us so that he can be left alone. This is also something that my father and I admire very much about Emperor Dingguo. People are really upright and upright, and they don't lose their atmosphere. But admiration is admiration, and it is simply impossible to make us sit back and be captured. It is still unknown who will kill the deer in the future. But ......"
