"The emperor wants Huluner to send the princess to make peace with this side, but Huluner has only one sister, Princess Naren felt that this was an opportunity, so she made a promise in front of Hulun'er, and replaced the dark clouds with her, and at the same time, she persuaded Hulun'er's mother to follow the peace envoy to the northern Xinjiang Pass and met me secretly."

"Well, but—"

Emperor Yongchang's turning words made Prince Ren even more frightened, he immediately stood up, bowed down and said: "The emperor forgives the sin, Princess Naren Gaowa saw me in men's clothes at that time, Weichen, Weichen didn't recognize it, and later she was misunderstood as Princess Heqin, I still couldn't recognize it, please ask the emperor to punish the crime." ”

"Go on."

"Yes, I still found out later, but at that time, Weichen was bent on including the Great Black Mountain Racecourse into the territory of Jurong, so he vaguely let Princess Naren Gaowa come to Shangjing. Your Majesty, please punish the crimes of the ministers. ”

Emperor Yongchang couldn't help but chuckle before he said, "What is the prince's crime? Please be seated. ”

Yes, how the emperor wished that Jurong could also have a huge horse farm, providing a steady stream of high-quality war horses. Jurong was due to the lack of horses, and both northern and western Xinjiang had to be defended by infantry, and suffered a lot in the confrontation with the Tartars.

The Great Black Mountain Racecourse is between Huluner and Maodun Defense, because Huluner has to climb over the mountain to fight, it is really not good to take it back for Princess Naren Gaova, but it is easy to attack from Jurong. But Jurong's soldiers and horses are okay in defense, fighting assault battles and storms, but they are not Tartar opponents. If you fight together with Huluner, Jurong will pay money and food, give up the road, Huluner will send troops and horses, and then the benefits will be divided equally......

Emperor Yongchang was wishful thinking, the smile on his face gradually bloomed, if Princess Naren Gaowa stayed in Jurong, it would be better, suddenly remembered that Princess Naren was the aunt of Mao Dun and Hulun'er, Emperor Yongchang was irritable again, he asked Emperor Yongchang: "How old is Princess Naren?" ”

"Around thirty, Weichen didn't ask much." Prince Ren knew it clearly, but he wanted to say this, so that the emperor would think that what he had taken a fancy to was Princess Naren Gaowa's horse farm.

Emperor Yongchang was silent, although Princess Naren was younger than himself, but he really didn't want to get a widowed woman into the palace because of a horse farm, not to mention that he was already thirty years old, if it was ten, even if he was twenty-three or four, and his appearance was beautiful, it would be reasonable.

"Shen Mingxi, Lord Shen asks to see——"

"Xuan!" As soon as Emperor Yongchang encountered an intractable problem, he always wanted Shen Mingxi to help, but this time, Shen Mingxi came at the right time, and he motioned for people to come in without thinking about it.

Emperor Yongchang was also greedy at this time, forgetting why Gao Tingfeng didn't come for a long time, in fact, Shen Mingxi had been here for a while, and he asked Gao Tingfeng to wait outside, and he estimated that Prince Ren should tell the emperor about it, and he had almost talked about it, so he asked for an audience.

"Why did Shen Aiqing come here when she asked to see me?"

"Your Majesty, because of the matter of the Tartar envoy, Weichen heard a rumor in the morning, saying that the princess who is close to him is a widow, and this Huluner is dead."

Emperor Yongchang didn't care about how the news leaked out, he nodded along with Shen Mingxi's words: "Princess Naren is indeed a widow, there is a hidden secret, and listen to Prince Ren." ”

So Prince Ren repeated what he just said, although he emphasized that the horse farm was better than telling about Princess Naren, but Shen Mingxi saw the clue, with Prince Ren's character, only women would be so attentive, they must have reached some tacit understanding at the border, otherwise, where would he be willing to run around for Naren Gaowa like this now?

The plan worked, Shen Mingxi let go of half of his heart, and then pretended to be surprised and sighed: "Horse farm? Great Black Mountain Horse Farm? ”

"yes." Emperor Yongchang's voice couldn't help but bring joy: "It would be great if we could have a horse farm with a large number of high-quality stallions and wranglers." ”

"Well, yes, yes, but-" Shen Mingxi was secretly happy in his heart, but he remained silent on the surface, frowning and thinking hard, "Your Majesty, what can I do about this?" Naren Gaowa is a widow, and she is absolutely not allowed to enter the palace, but if she is sent back, the situation of friendship between the two countries will be affected again. ”

Prince Ren hurriedly chimed in: "Yes, Your Majesty, Princess Naren Gaowa can't enter the palace, but she can't be sent back either, what should I do?" ”

Emperor Yongchang was also embarrassed, frowning and looking at Shen Mingxi: "Shen Aiqing, do you have a way?" This problem must be solved, and we must take the Great Black Mountain Racecourse. ”

"Let me think about it." Shen Mingxi pretended to pace back and forth in front of the emperor, he liked this when he thought about problems, the emperor was used to it, Prince Ren was in his throat at this moment, and he didn't have the heart to find fault with Shen Mingxi if it was a little disrespectful.

Shen Mingxi suddenly raised his head, took two steps forward, blocked Prince Ren's sight, and crooked his mouth at the emperor.

Emperor Yongchang misunderstood, he seemed to have just seen Prince Ren holding his knees and kneading quietly, and said in a fuss: "Ah, Uncle Wang has a leg disease?" Let Wang Lun and them help you massage it, and then come back to the discussion later. After saying that, he beckoned, and two little eunuchs immediately came up and helped Prince Ren to the next room.

Emperor Yongchang asked all the attendants in the house to withdraw, and then looked at Shen Mingxi with blazing eyes: "Shen Aiqing, can you talk about it now?" ”

"Your Majesty, the minister sees that this Prince Ren has a deep heart for Princess Naren Gaowa, what do you think?"

"Huh?"

"Your Majesty, Prince Ren's Mansion is blind because of the heroine, and the prince has been more than a year, but he is much older, and his hair is half white."

"Hmm!"

"Your Majesty, although since the previous dynasty, there are no longer three wives and four concubines, but the old prince has a secret, so he can't let the palace be controlled by the side concubines, right? And I heard that the prince and his wife are going to the south on business again, and they can't take care of the affairs of the house, and the palace doesn't have a competent hostess, what should I do? Naturally, he couldn't say that Prince Ren interfered and did not allow the princess to meddle in family affairs.

Emperor Yongchang frowned: "How can this be done?" ”

"Your Majesty, who is the envoy to the peace mission sent by Huluner?"

Emperor Yongchang was stunned for a moment, picked up the fold next to him and looked at it again: "What kind of words are written, I can't recognize it." ”

"Ouch, long live, this is a new character made by Huluner himself, he added some strokes to the Chinese characters, or subtracted some of them, and turned them into their characters, and there is a book with Chinese characters written on it."

"Actually, what a barbarian!" Emperor Yongchang smiled, then took out another fold, opened it, and couldn't help nodding, "Sure enough, this can be understood, I am also going to be in the court the day after tomorrow, and let their envoy read it to me." ”

"Hehehe," Shen Mingxi echoed and laughed twice.

"Oh, sure enough, this Princess Naren is a special envoy of Heqin, not a princess who was married to Heqin." "In that case, things will be easier." Emperor Yongchang smiled: "This matter will be handed over to Shen Aiqing." ”
