Chapter 197: The Prince
Xiao Huan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he looked at it, and said, "You seem to be quite happy to see the second prince unlucky?" ”
"No, no." Xiahou Yu didn't want Xiao Huan to discover her secret, she smiled, "I was thinking that we should be able to go back sooner." ”
Xiao Huan nodded, and suddenly said, "Do you want to go with me to meet the second prince?" ”
"Huh?!" Xiahou Yu was surprised.
Xiao Huan liked the expression on her face, and felt more and more that her idea was good, and encouraged her: "Go ahead!" Just with me, we can go to the grassland to run horses. ”
It is impossible for the second prince to really come to Chang'an City, and most of the places where they meet are in the grassland, so they don't have to worry about being surrounded and suppressed after being discovered.
Just enough to achieve Xiahou Yu's wish.
If it weren't for Xiahou Yu, he wouldn't have thought of meeting the second prince.
After all, more is better than less.
Xiahou Yu was not interested in meeting the second prince, but it would be interesting to go to the grassland with Xiao Huan.
She gladly agreed.
Xiao Huan went back and began to pack up.
The envoy of the second prince could only hurry up and rush back to the imperial capital day and night to tell the second prince the news.
This time Xiao Huan took the initiative, he and Xiahou Yu rode horses and met the second prince outside the gate leisurely.
The second prince is in his thirties, tall and strong, with yellow beard and yellow hair, black eyes, smiling, and very kind, a bit like Hu Shang that Xiahou Yu has seen.
He greeted Xiao Huan in Chinese.
Xiao Huan can actually speak nonsense.
He greeted the second prince in Hu language.
Xiahou Yu's eyes widened.
But the two of them spoke their own words, and spoke without any obstacles.
It's just that the scene is a little funny.
Han people speak Hu language, and Hu people speak Chinese language...... Xiahou Yu felt as if he was in the wrong place.
When the second prince and Xiao Huan sat down, the second prince's entourage walked in carrying boxes one by one.
The second prince bowed slightly.
A man next to him stepped forward and opened the box, revealing a golden jewel.
"This is my gift to the Governor." The second prince smiled, looked up at Xiao Huan, but the corner of his eyes was unintentionally sweeping to Xiahou Yu, who was dressed as a little maid and kneeling behind Xiao Huan.
His eyes widened sharply, and he quickly returned to smiling.
But Xiao Huan, who has been paying attention to him, still sees it clearly.
He accepted the gift from the second prince with a smile and said a few words of gratitude, but his body moved in the direction of Xiahou Yu, as if in this way, he could block Xiahou Yu behind him.
The second prince's gaze couldn't help but fall on Xiahou Yu again, and he was a little absent-mindedly talking to Xiao Huan about his intentions: "...... Our Beiliang is known as the Left Virtuous King and the Right Virtuous King, and I think the Governor can support me in chasing one of them. ”
The Beiliang royal family has these two princes to be crowned, but it is usually the prince who assists the young emperor to get such a reward.
The current Emperor of Beiliang is only two or three years younger than the second prince, which is obviously inappropriate.
Xiao Huan regretted a little that he had brought Xiahou Yu over.
Before, he thought that Xiahou Yu was very curious about this meeting, thinking that he would not make any big mistakes by her side, so he didn't think much about it.
Now it seems that he made a mistake.
However, the second prince is known as a virtuous man. Did he stare at Xiahou Yu like this and find out that she was the eldest princess of Jinling? Or do you just think she's pretty?
Xiao Huan coughed coldly, and then said, "I'm afraid I won't be able to help with the affairs of the Beiliang Imperial Court." ”
"How could it not help?" The second prince finally glanced back at Xiao Huan, but soon glanced at Xiahou Yu again, "As long as there are no five princes, how can this Zuoxian King and the Right Xian King also belong to me and the eldest imperial brother!" ”
The implication is to unite with the eldest prince to kill the five princes.
Xiao Huan especially hated the gaze of the second prince, his face became colder, and he spoke more directly: "What does the eldest prince mean?" I don't know if I can help the second prince? ”
Only then did the second prince retract his eyes and said to Xiao Huan with a smile: "The eldest prince said that he only believes in the governor. I happened to persuade the emperor and asked the five princes to send the Empress Dowager Gu and the King of Qin to the vassal. ”
That is, he wanted to borrow Xiao Huan's hand to take this opportunity to kill the five princes.
Xiahou Yu laughed.
No wonder Tuoba Shou only believes in Xiao Huan.
Because only Xiao Huan's subordinates can kill the five princes.
It's like he can kill the Nine Emperors.
Xiahou Yu guessed that the relationship between the Gu family and the Xiao family should not be a secret in the upper echelons of Beiliang, and asked Xiao Huan to clean up the five princes, and most of the people sent by the Gu family to protect the Empress Dowager Gu and the King of Qin would stand by and watch. That's just half the battle.
Xiao Huan obviously also knew that he was afraid that Beiliang would not be chaotic, so he smiled and turned the golden cup with buttermilk in his hand and smiled at the corner of his mouth, and said: "It's rare that the eldest prince and the second prince trust me, but I am ready to go back to Xiangyang after seeing the second prince, I am afraid it will be difficult to take on this important task." ”
The second prince smiled and said: "If the governor is still in Chang'an City, who dares to do anything under the nose of the governor." Naturally, after the governor left Chang'an City, those Xiaoxiao dared to do it! After speaking, he pointed to the truth, "Bei Liang has always been unruly. It's because of the governor that this year's New Year's tribute will be sent, who knows what will happen to next year's New Year's tribute? I don't think it's better for the governor to send someone to take over! ”
The implication is that Xiao Huan killed the five princes, and half of the annual tribute next year will still belong to Xiao Huan.
Xiao Huan thought of the second prince's gaze just now, and couldn't help sneering, and said: "The second prince also said, Beiliang has always been unruly, and he has given the New Year's tribute this year, who knows what it will be like next year." I think I'd be realistic. ”
The implication is that they will be given money immediately.
Xiahou Yu looked sideways.
What's the difference between this and banditry?!
Xiao Huan...... It really impressed her.
The second prince was a little annoyed.
They can't bring out so much gold and silver.
The war has consumed too much of their money.
However, the fifth prince was appointed by the emperor as the middle secretary, assisted Gu Xia in taking charge of the imperial court, and stayed in the imperial city. If he doesn't die, he and the eldest prince will only get farther and farther away from the throne.
In case Xiao Huan wants to collect the money first and then do things, the money cannot be paid by him alone.
The eldest prince drew at least half.
The second prince quickly made up his mind, but he still had to contact the eldest prince, so there was no way to continue to talk about this matter, so he could only talk about it for the time being, and wait for tomorrow.
The second prince laughed and said, "What the governor said is extremely true, and let me discuss with the eldest brother what to do?" It's not an easy thing for the governor to bring back so much gold and silver at once! As he spoke, Xiahou Yu's beautiful face appeared in his mind, and he couldn't help but point to Xiahou Yu and said, "Dudu, I don't know what this girl is called?" Would I have the pleasure of asking her to dance for me? ”
Although Xiahou Yu was dressed as a small servant, she relied on following Xiao Huan, and she was not dressed so strictly, and those who were interested knew at a glance that she was a woman dressed as a man.
The royal family of Beiliang is a grassland tribe and still retains the habits of the grassland tribe. Praise which girl is good-looking, and invite that girl to dance at the banquet. But Xiao Huan is a native of Wuzhong, and only the family's kabuki or maiko will perform at banquets.
