Chapter 77: Marriage between the two countries
The exhaustion that was full of her body disappeared in her gentle whispers, Mu Jiechen's face softened a little, grabbed the soft hands on his shoulders, pulled her in front of him, hugged her to his thighs and placed her, looked at her and said, "Xi'er, don't have a situation like today in the future, okay?" ”
"Hmm!" Liu Fengxi replied softly. "Dust, why did you come back so early today? What have you been busy with for the past half month? She asked casually, clearly feeling the tightening of his arm around her waist, his slender sword eyebrows furrowed, pursed his lips, and remained silent.
Mu Jiechen quietly hugged Liu Fengxi, tightly, tightly refusing to let go, as if he was afraid of something, the sexy thin lips were pursed tightly, his eyebrows were frowning, as if there was some knot that could not be untied, and he was getting tighter and tighter in his heart.
Seeing that he was silent, Liu Fengxi furrowed her eyebrows, and there was something hidden in her heart, she tried hard to catch it, but she couldn't catch anything. She raised her hand to soothe his frowning brow......
"Xi'er......" Mu Jiechen grabbed her slender and graceful jade fingers, enclosed her hand in his palm, and held it tightly. The day of the hunt is getting closer and closer......" At this point, he paused, and when he spoke again, the conversation had already changed.
"The Three Sages King and the Liwang of the Dongling Kingdom have come to the Huang Dynasty in recent days and will participate in the hunt with the emperor. At that time, the crown prince and I will compete with them on behalf of the emperor, Xi'er ......, I don't want you to participate in the hunt, but the queen has personally named you to accompany you earlier, what should I do? ”
There was a slight distress in Mu Jiechen's tone, as a courtier, could he refuse the queen?
If, only the Queen's will, he can refuse. With his character, when did he care about the eyes of others. But what if you add the emperor? The emperor can be said to be obedient to the queen and responds to all requests.
Sixteen years ago, the annual hunt of the royal hunt ended, on the way back to the palace, the emperor picked up the unconscious roadside, seriously injured woman, brought back to the palace for treatment, and finally was attracted by the woman's stunning appearance, regardless of the opposition of the courtiers, she was accepted as a concubine, the world is speculating, the woman does not know what means, but only the holy favor, the harem of the favored crown.
Three years later, Empress Yuwen died of congenital heart disease, the emperor ignored the opposition of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, and canonized Bai Qianwei, who was still a concubine at the time, that is, the current queen, she has been in the harem for 16 years, although the harem is full of newcomers, but no one can take away the emperor's favor from her!
Since the canonization of Bai Qianwei, the emperor's harem is equivalent to a fictitious, although there are still continuous show girls filling the harem every year, but no one can be favored by the emperor. Even if there are one or two occasionally, they fall out of favor in just three days.
Regardless of how to play the military officials, asking the emperor to clear the king's side, every time it will provoke the emperor's anger, and the words of the Qingjun side have been stranded again and again, and over time, no one dares to play the emperor's abolition.
"Dust ......!" Liu Fengxi frowned slightly, raised her hand and shook it in front of Mu Jiechen. He was actually distracted while talking to her, which had never happened before, what happened? It made him so out of shape and absent-minded.
Mu Juechen's distant thoughts were pulled back by her shallow voice, he looked at her and said apologetically: "Xi'er, what did you just say, can you say it again?" "I was secretly annoyed in my heart, he was actually distracted when talking to Xi'er, it's really damn good.
With the emperor's favor for the queen, how could he refuse?
Originally, with Xi'er's martial arts cultivation, he didn't need to worry about her. It's just that he doesn't say why, he just has an inexplicable uneasiness in his heart, and he always feels as if something is going to happen. And he, afraid that something like that would happen, was definitely not what he wanted to see.
And he couldn't say what it was, but he had an inexplicable uneasiness in his heart.
"Dust. You're thinking too much! Actually, you don't have to worry, don't you still believe that I can't protect myself? It's just to go hunting, it's okay if I don't go, I'll accompany the queen in the palace, so you can rest assured. ”
With the queen here, will anything else happen? The queen's safety will definitely be very important, the emperor and his courtiers go to the hunting ground to hunt, and the concubines stay in the palace, nothing should happen, right? Safety is definitely no problem!
Moreover, ordinary people can't enter the royal hunting ground, so there is no need to worry about personal safety.
"Chen, you are responsible for the safety of the hunting ground, don't you still believe in the people you have cultivated yourself?" She asked with a shallow smile and a soft voice.
Mu Jiechen's eyebrows gradually stretched, and his magnetic voice chuckled: "Yes! The safety of the entire imperial capital is under my control, what else do I have to worry about. Although he was smiling, the smile on his lips was bitter.
Still, he was worried.
As long as it is something related to Xi'er, he can't be calm and calm. He would not allow anything to happen to her within his jurisdiction, and he would not allow it.
"Chen, you said that the Three Sages King and the Liwang of Dongling Kingdom will also participate in the hunt after half a moon, is this true?" Why hadn't she heard of other princes from other countries participating in the royal hunt of the Phoenix Dynasty before? What's going on here?
Liu Fengxi's mind couldn't help but flash the picture of today's Emperor Sacred Lake, the handsome and elegant man in moon-white brocade and the young man in ice blue dress, they looked noble and extraordinary, and they didn't seem to be from the Huang Dynasty. Will they be......
"Hmmm! They are secret envoys on behalf of Dongling, negotiating with the emperor about the marriage between Princess Dongling and the crown prince of the Huang Dynasty, and signing a peace treaty with the Huang Dynasty! Mu Jiechen said in a low voice.
When he said these words, there was no emotion on his handsome face, but in fact, his heart was not as calm and calm as it seemed. If it weren't necessary, those two words, he really didn't want to mention. Every time I mention it, my heart throbs.
His mother's tragic death was the pain of his eternal life. He wanted to kill that man immediately, and to kill that person's life and scatter his bones to ashes, in order to repay his mother's suffering during her lifetime, and make him pay for the mistakes he had committed to her.
"Oh!" Liu Fengxi raised her eyebrows and said mockingly: "Emperor Dongling is really sincere, and sent two princes over to negotiate the marriage between the princess and the prince. How formal the marriage was, he secretly sent his two sons over! Is this to hide people's eyes and ears, and not to let other countries take the lead? ”
The shallow voice implied a hint of sarcasm, Dongling Emperor was really a cunning old fox, but it could be seen from his actions that he was scheming and difficult to deal with.
"Do you think the marriage between Dongling and the Huang Dynasty can be successful?" Mu Jiechen said with a smile, and a sharp light flashed in obsidian's eyes.
"Heh......" Liu Fengxi smiled silently. If the marriage between Dongling and the Huang Dynasty is successful, it is not a good thing for them, and with Mu Juechen's hatred for Dongling Kingdom, how can they watch the marriage between the two countries succeed?
Mu Jiechen looked at the smile on her lips and said, "Xi'er, what do you think of this matter?" Do you hope that the marriage between the two countries of the Donglinghuang Dynasty will be successful, or will you ......?"
Liu Fengxi intercepted: "If I stand in your position, I don't want to see the marriage of the two countries of the Dongling Huang Dynasty. ”
"What about your own position?"
"There is no such possibility!" Liu Fengxi sank her face and said coldly.
