Chapter 31
Nan Borong sat at the top of the main hall, looking at Yan Guogong opposite, frowning slightly. It stands to reason that he is a prince of the royal family, and Yan Guogong is just a minister, although Yan Guogong is older, but above the court, he has never been judged by age. Yan Guogong came to visit, and he should have sat first on the left, but sitting directly next to Nan Borong like this today can't help but make people doubt his motives.
"His Royal Highness King De returned to the imperial capital this time, and the old minister should have come to visit as soon as possible, but because there were many miscellaneous things at home, he didn't come until now. His Royal Highness won't be surprised, right? Yan Guogong asked with a smile.
Nan Borong remained silent: "Grandpa Guo is serious. The king entered the city yesterday afternoon, and you have come to visit you early this morning. How can it be called late? "Looking at the time, Yan Guogong should have just come back from the next dynasty. The emperor only condemned him yesterday, and as soon as he got to court today, this old fox hurried to his house, what was the idea of fighting?
Although Nan Borong thought so in his heart, he stopped speaking after the words fell. He didn't speak, and Yan Guogong didn't speak when he sat there. The two of them sat on the main hall of the Dewang Mansion. For a moment, a pin drop could be heard in the hall. Unconsciously, the two of them sat like this for half an hour, and neither of them spoke a word first. Finally, the arrival of Youning broke the eerie silence here.
"Master......" You Ning looked at Nan Borong and then at Yan Guogong, and stopped talking.
Nan Borong turned his head to look at Yan Guogong's expression, but found that the old fox was smiling with a determined face, and couldn't help frowning slightly: "What's the matter?" Speak. ”
You Ning looked at Yan Guogong and hesitated: "Master...... This ......"
Nan Borong also guessed that the matter that You Ning was going to say was related to the purpose of Yan Guogong's visit today, so he said: "But it doesn't hurt to talk about it." ”
You Ning looked at Yan Guogong again, a little hesitant, but still stubbornly said: "Master, there are rumors of ...... outside."
"Pass what?" Nan Borong frowned, and a sense of foreboding suddenly surged in his heart.
Sure enough, Youning's next words made him feel bad! He never dreamed that Yan Guogong, the father of General Yan Sheng, a legend in the imperial military, would do such a thing!
"It's all out there, you...... When you entered the city yesterday, you fell in love with Yan Jingshu, the concubine of the Yan Guo Mansion. Miss Jingshu fell in love with you at first sight, and because you fell in love with her, so early this morning, the people who originally intended to marry the Yan Guogong Mansion handed over the letters one after another, saying that they were unwilling to destroy the relationship between you and Miss Yan......"
The more Nan Borong listened to You Ning's words, the more gloomy his face became. Who said that what did he watch yesterday Yan Jingshu, the young lady of the Yan Guo Mansion? What he saw was clearly flowers like snow! It's the girl who makes him feel so affectionate! What Yan Jingshu? He hadn't even heard of it.
"Yan Guogong, what do you mean by this?" Nan Borong's face was gloomy, as if a layer of frost was hanging.
Yan Guogong laughed like an old fox who had succeeded in his conspiracy: "His Royal Highness King De is angry. The old minister has just returned from the palace. I used the military power of my Yan family in exchange for a marriage from His Majesty. ”
"Yan Guogong, what do you mean...... This king's lifelong event is your bargaining chip for the Yan family's self-protection? Nan Borong was angry. He is the king of Longtang De, how can he allow others to calculate his life's events? What's more, this woman is still a woman he has never even met? This is kidnapping! The kidnapping of the red fruit!
Yan Guogong laughed: "His Royal Highness King De, things are not as you think. From now on, we will only look forward to you. Yan Guogong almost had an almost confident attitude towards this matter. He felt that as soon as King De returned to the imperial capital, he was coldly regarded by the emperor, and now was the time to lose power. Although their Yan Guo Mansion had no military power, he believed that as long as the Yan family stood up and raised their arms, the imperial army would inevitably respond en masse. Their Yan family is the biggest soldier in the empire. Those two iron lumps are just decorations. Their Yanguo Mansion defected to King De at this time, which was simply a relief in the snow for King De!
After listening to Yan Guogong's words, Nan Borong couldn't help but sneer: "Yan Guogong thinks that he has sent charcoal in the snow?" But in the eyes of this king, this is just icing on the cake. Does Yan Guogong really think that this king has lost power now? Or do you think that this king has now sunk to the bottom and can't break free? ”
Yan Guogong squinted his eyes and looked at Nan Borong. As if things weren't as he thought. Yan Jingshu may have said that King De liked her just to marry King De. Could it be that it was just a misunderstanding? What else did the king see? Yan Jingshu just misunderstood? If that's the case...... That's a problem!
He originally thought that Yan Jingshu would not talk nonsense about this matter. Marriage events, how can it be child's play? Maybe she insisted so much, and it is not known if King De really took a fancy to her. Therefore, he will take this opportunity to hand over the military talisman and exchange the military power for marriage. If King De has a heart for Yan Jingshu, he will inevitably borrow the slope to get off the donkey and achieve good things. In this way, the Yan family can be kept from being eliminated by the emperor; Second, it can also fulfill Yan Jingshu's wish. If this thing really happens, then from the dragon's work, there will definitely be no loss of the Yan family! Their Yan family will also have a queen because of this.
However, many things in the world backfire. His Royal Highness King De doesn't seem to have Yan Jingshu in his heart at all. What he is doing today seems to be giving face to King De, but in fact he is forcing King De to accept his concubine. He knows very well how arrogant King De's temperament is, even if King De is forced to marry Yan Jingshu even if he drives ducks to the shelves, then according to King De's temperament, Yan Jingshu will not have any good results after marrying into King De's mansion.
Thinking of this, Yan Guogong suddenly smiled: "His Royal Highness King De doesn't need to be so angry. The marriage is just old wishful thinking. The marriage of His Royal Highness King De should be decided by the emperor and the pure concubine! However, our Yanguo Mansion will still be your vassals in the future, and this will never change! ”
Nan Borong knew that this old fox was looking for a step for himself, and since this was the case, he didn't want to force Yan Guogong to be anxious: "Grandpa Guo is serious." You and I are both His Majesty's courtiers, why do you say that you are a vassal of this king? However, you are always a pillar of the military, and there are many problems, and this king will still ask you more questions in the future. ”
Yan Guogong was relieved, he was really afraid that Nan Borong would be angry this time and directly turned Yan Guogong's mansion away. In this way, they will lose their wives and soldiers. Without military power, if they can't get on the big ship of King De, then they are toothless tigers. The emperor and the crown prince will never let them go! But now, Nan Borong agreed to his defection in disguise. It's not too much of a loss this time. Shu'er's affairs can be found slowly. After all, they are all young people, and if they have more opportunities to contact in the future, they will naturally be able to have feelings. As long as King De does not dislike his family's sister-in-law, then in order to win over the Yan family, King De will inevitably marry Yan Jingshu as his wife.
It's just that Yan Guogong didn't realize that he originally thought that he could take Nan Borong into an army, but now the situation is reversed! He was obviously led by Nan Borong's nose and left! Nan Borong did accept his defection according to his wishes. But this is what he is sure of. Now how did he become so grateful after Nan Borong accepted his defection?
This problem was not realized until Yan Guogong returned home. So he slapped the table and laughed three times: "Old man! Yan Sheng, who was on the side, looked confused, and he didn't know what kind of nerves his father had.
"Master, Yan Guogong this time...... Some, right? Han Fei stood behind Nan Borong, very unhappy. He Yan Guogong is just the title of a duke, how dare he go to the Dewang Mansion to show off his might? Dare to threaten his master? What the hell is that Yan Jingshu? How could a girl worthy of his master be her? When Han Fei just heard the gossip on the street, he went to check this Yan Jingshu. A woman who is looking for death and life for a man is just a porcelain vase raised in the depths of the boudoir, which is useless! The girl who can be worthy of his master must be the most perfect girl in the world!
Nan Borong looked ahead with a smile: "This old fox, calculated on the head of this king...... Wishful thinking is too good! How can you do it if you don't let him pay a price? ”
Han Fei thought so: "The master is right! What Yan Jingshu is, she should also be taught a lesson! Let her know that the master is not worthy of any girl! ”
"Not necessarily!" Nan Borong didn't care about these things, "Let those words go!" If she is not afraid of becoming the public enemy of the women of the imperial capital, she will naturally not care about these small words, maybe this king will look down on her. If she cares about this, she won't need us, and she will find a way to stop the news from spreading. ”
Han Fei's eyes lit up: "The master is clever!" For you to say this, your subordinates also want to see what this Miss Yan is going to do. ”
……
Hua Ruxue was sitting in the house with the soles of her shoes, and it happened that Hua Jiumo came back from going out and sat next to her.
"Sister Ruxue, what do you think I heard on the street today?" Hua Jiumo asked mysteriously.
Hua Ruxue asked while holding the soles of her shoes, "What?" ”
His Royal Highness King De entered the city yesterday and looked at Yan Jingshu, the young lady of the Yan Guo Mansion, affectionately. Miss Yan is about to be given marriage by His Majesty, marry King De, and become Princess De! ”
Hua Ruxue's hand holding the needle paused: "Presumably that Miss Yan is also an infatuated lover." ”
Hua Jiumo leaned over to see Hua Ruxue's face: "Sister, aren't you jealous?" How can I clearly think that His Royal Highness King De is looking at you! And last night at the night market, His Royal Highness King De touched your hand! ”
Hua Ruxueqiao blushed and scolded: "What nonsense! Let's fight! ”
