Chapter 94: Ignorance of Current Affairs
The queen of the country does not seem to be as old as Xiao Ye imagined, about forty, with a gorgeous face, a pair of charming eyes that are natural, but awe-inspiring, and a green silk combed into a Chinese bun, beautiful and graceful. If he has Zhu Dan in his mouth, his fingers are like peeling onions, and he sits in the high hall with a bit of laziness on his face.
For Xiao Ye's salute, the slightly squinted eyes slowly opened, and Xiao Ye was looked at from top to bottom, and the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked: "Are you Xiao Ye, the youngest daughter of General Xiao's family?" ”
"It's the courtier." Xiao Ye replied solemnly.
"Sure enough, it's the same as rumored, the appearance is outstanding, and the aura is compelling." With a meaningful expression, the queen waved her hand: "Give a seat." ”
After the words fell, on the left and right sides of the main hall, the attendants opened a seat.
At this move, everyone present glanced at each other slightly.
Obviously, this move of the queen of the country is to let Xiao Ye choose a side by herself, and the people on the left are the people of the queen of the country, if Xiao Ye sits in the position on the left, he naturally means that he is on the side of the queen. And if you sit on the right, the side of the prince's faction is on the side of the prince.
It is really straightforward enough to let Xiao Ye choose a side in public. No matter who Xiao Ye chooses, he will offend people from the other faction. If it's anyone, you have to be scared to the point of trembling at this time!
And Xiao Ye was different, almost without any hesitation, and after thanking the country, he directly sat in the position of the prince's faction on the right.
Suddenly, the entire Qingyu Xuan was filled with the sound of inhaling cold air.
Or no one thought that Xiao Ye would be so crisp and unhesitating. Imagine the current situation, everyone knows that the Kunashir faction is powerful and powerful. Although Duan Yunya is the crown prince, his power is completely suppressed in front of the queen of the country, and smart people should all choose the queen faction, and those who choose the prince's faction are obviously looking for death.
Seeing that Xiao Ye sat on his side so without hesitation, Duan Yunya had a trace of worries in his heart that immediately dissipated completely, and a smile involuntarily appeared on his face. The other old ministers who followed Duan Yunya also smiled, like Duan Yunya, they all had concerns in their hearts before Xiao Ye came, and even when Duan Yunya told them that they wanted to join forces with Xiao Ye, they still strongly objected, after all, Xiao Ye was Xiao Zhan's daughter, and Xiao Zhan was a member of the queen faction.
Now it seems that it is time for them to change their minds, at least Xiao Ye's decision at this time is like a direct slap in the face to the queen, which will make the queen lose face.
Today's banquet of Qingyuxuan, the shame caused by the gap in the lineup, was brought back by Xiao Ye's move.
The prince's side was happy, but the people on the queen side began to be uneasy, and their faces were gloomy and uneasy. After all, they didn't expect Xiao Ye to make such a decision, especially Xiao Zhan, who was even more embarrassed and gloomy.
One by one, their eyes peeked at the queen of the country.
At this time, the most embarrassing person should be Kunashir! was commanded by Xiao Ye on the spot, and his face was disgraced.
But surprisingly, they didn't see half of the anger and embarrassment on the face of the queen of the country, the queen of the country was still sitting there, with an indifferent face, and there seemed to be a smile on the corner of her mouth, as if she didn't care about Xiao Ye's choice.
Lang Yu, who was in the chief position, was the same, holding a wine glass and drinking a small wine, this little episode was completely ignored.
"General Xiao's daughter really has the demeanor of after the battle, and she is straightforward." The queen said with a smile, her eyes glancing at Xiao Zhan.
Xiao Zhan looked embarrassed, and fine beads of sweat appeared on his brows. The roll call of the queen of the country was only an embarrassing smile.
At this time, he should have scolded Xiao Ye thousands of times in his heart, and he didn't know the current affairs.
"Thank you for your appreciation." Xiao Ye couldn't hear the meaning of the Empress Guohou's words, but she was really polite, and took the Empress Guohou's words as a kind of appreciation. Since she came here, she had already decided to take a stand, even if she decided to join forces with Duan Yunya, she naturally wanted to show her value.
It's just that Xiao Ye also has a lot of thoughts about this country in his heart.
The more such a quiet person is, the more dangerous it is. Such as the queen of the country, such as Langyu! It seems that everything is better to be careful, and now is just the beginning.
"Today's banquet, this palace just wants to inform everyone of one thing in advance." The queen of the country slowly got up and looked at Duan Yunya, "The monarch's body is getting worse day by day, I'm afraid that he has caused something filthy." Master Lang Yu offered advice, and the dynasty needed happy events to rush the evil. Therefore, the monarch discussed with the palace and decided to choose a date for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to take a concubine. The choice of the crown princess is Zhong Liyan, the righteous daughter of Master Langyu. ”
Zhongli Smoke!
Xiao Ye looked at Zhong Liyan, who was sitting next to Duan Yunya, even after hearing such news, Zhong Liyan was still as quiet as water, and he looked quite reserved like a lady. I'm afraid that only a few people, including her Xiao Ye, know that it's just a corpse.
Thinking that Duan Yunya was going to marry a woman who was full of insects, Xiao Ye really couldn't help but sympathize with Duan Yunya.
And Duan Yunya, when he announced this after the country, his face was already like a dark cloud, and it was darkened.
"The queen of the country." Su Lu, the old minister who sat at the head of the prince's faction, got up, "Rong Laochen said that it is a good thing for the prince to accept the princess, but it is the choice of the crown princess." Rong Laochen has his own discussion. ”
Su Qingjia said. The queen of the country looked indifferent, and she expected that someone had objections.
"Lord Langyu is highly meritorious and noble in the Eastern Jin Kingdom, but Zhong Liyan is just the righteous daughter of Lord Langyu in the final analysis, her status is not noble, and her status is far from the status of the prince, how can she be the crown princess?" For the queen faction to arbitrarily designate the crown princess, Su Luzi was very dissatisfied.
As for what he said about the results of the discussions with the monarch, it is simply nonsense. Everyone knows that the monarch has long been delirious, and whatever the queen says is what he says. All affairs are in the hands of the queen of the country alone.
"So, what Su Qing's family means is that the crown princess appointed by the monarch, do you think that the status is not noble enough, that is, you think that the monarch's eyes are not good, and you are messing around?" The queen smiled at the corner of her mouth, and her words were not hurried.
The words of the queen of the country, Su Lu was speechless at the moment.
This is simply brutal! There is no need for any reason, just move the monarch out and suppress it. This obviously means that no matter how much you have opinions, it is useless, and this is the decision of the king.
Su Lu looked at Duan Yunya, who was sitting on top of him, with a sad face. Duan Yunya's gloomy face was in stark contrast to Zhong Liyan, who was sitting beside him, who was as quiet as water.
Duan Yunya knew that even if he resisted, it would be useless.
Because of Xiao Ye's incident before, he had already seen the monarch, and the monarch was no longer the monarch he used to be, but more like a puppet at the mercy of others.
Now that Zhong Liyan is set to be the crown princess, he can't do anything.
"Your Royal Highness the Prince, do you have any opinions?" The queen turned her gaze to Duan Yunya.
Qingyuxuan, eerily quiet, everyone's eyes were on Duan Yunya's body. The aggressiveness of the queen of the country, the freedom of the queen faction of the queen of the country is refreshing. The prince's face was sad, but he didn't know why he was right.
Duan Yunya suddenly laughed, laughing so much that everyone felt inexplicable.
After a long while, Duan Yunya stopped smiling and said, "Since it is the crown princess arranged by the father and the queen, how can the sons and daughters have opinions. Erchen is just afraid that he will disappoint the monarch and the queen of the country, and he will not be able to take care of the future crown princess. ”
"You are the crown prince, the crown princess will take good care of you, how can she bother you to take care of her?" The queen of the country had already arranged everything, so that Duan Yunya would not even have a chance to refuse.
Duan Yunya pursed his lips and secretly swallowed that anger into his stomach.
"Someone." As soon as the queen gave an order, someone immediately came forward to listen to the order. The queen of the country said solemnly, "Spread the holy oracle, immediately announce the world, the crown prince will accept the princess, and the wedding ceremony will be held on the day to celebrate with the country." ”
"Yes." After receiving the order, the steward left in a hurry.
Duan Yunya's face was already extremely dark, and the hand holding the wine glass was so angry that he was about to crush the glass. And the rest of the prince's faction also looked extremely ugly one by one. In the face of this kind of move that makes them have no power to fight back, they are indeed very frustrated.
They didn't expect that the queen of the country would magnify their moves so quickly and beat them to the bottom of the pitch-black valley.
And when the prince and his faction were all in a depressed mood, there was only one person, but he looked indifferent from usual, drinking a little wine, as if listening to stories that had nothing to do with him, and watching open and secret battles that had nothing to do with him.
This person is Xiao Ye.
For a long time after the crown princess's decision, everyone was silent, the low continued to be low, and the proud continued to be proud. When Xiao Ye suddenly got up, everyone's eyes focused on Xiao Ye's body.
"Since the matter of the crown prince and the crown princess has been decided, and the whole country celebrates with it, why don't we celebrate it now?" Xiao Ye said.
When Xiao Ye said this, Duan Yunya's face became even more ugly.
Xiao Ye really wants to celebrate? Isn't this guy really here to provoke him? was forced to marry Langyu's righteous daughter, this kind of thing was already a big blow to him, and this Xiao Ye actually ran out with a leisurely face to celebrate?
"Oh?" The queen looked at Xiao Ye meaningfully, "What do you think?" ”
Xiao Ye was looked up to by the prince and was given the title of Wu Yueji. Now that the prince is having a big day, Xiao Ye should celebrate the prince with his own ability, why don't he borrow the treasure land of Qingyu and the blessing of the queen of the country, and let Xiao Ye dance a song here, for the prince, and also for everyone's entertainment? Xiao Ye smiled, that smile looked so intriguing at this time.
The people sitting in the queen faction immediately showed a look of vigilance and defense. The prince's faction also showed doubts one by one, they didn't know what Xiao Ye was going to do. Similarly, Duan Yunya didn't know Xiao Ye's actions. But unlike his ministers, he had expectations for Xiao Ye. Xiao Ye has always been an ordinary person in his eyes, especially after the Fatian Prison incident, he was even more impressed with Xiao Ye.
