Chapter 443: Rivals in Love

And Jiang Wanxiu frowned slightly, picked up a white piece between her slender fingers and landed on the chessboard, and said: "The son of the world is much more difficult than the endgame. "Bai Zi is on the plate, reborn in a dead end, and turns the tables again."

"This is already the hardest endgame I can find, containing the most difficult one hundred endgames since ancient times, I thought I could entertain the two of you for half a year, looking like this, it would be enough for you to play for a month." Gongsun Jin couldn't help but laugh.

Song Yuanxi looked at Jiang Wanxiu opposite, and raised his lips, "With Jiang Wanxiu, this chess can be played for a lifetime." ”

Jiang Wanxiu glared at him lightly, and her eyebrows flowed.

This bastard, play chess well and talk nonsense about love.

"Shizi is right, when the two chess opponents meet, they will meet good talents, and the princess is still the first person I have seen who can play chess with Shizi for so long." Gongsun Jin praised sincerely.

They are so tacitly compatible, outsiders are jealous and envious of Jiang Wanxiu's unique favor by Song Yuanxi, and a few people know that they are so compatible.

Jiang Wanxiu looked at him with a smile, "Childe is saying that you are not a human being?" ”

"Huh?" Gongsun Jin couldn't help laughing, "I'm sorry I missed it, but with the princess, I am only an object that needs to be placed in the eyes of the prince." ”

Jiang Wanxiu covered her mouth and chuckled, "Childe, are you jealous?" You've been playing chess for more than ten years, and I'm not jealous. ”

"The princess ......" Gongsun Jin could only stiffen her face and be embarrassed by her jokes.

Song Yuan snorted and said, "He complained that I threw him to Huiyue Palace to entertain the envoys." ”

"Envoy? I heard that the envoy of the Western Regions Si Yu Kingdom came to work, and it seems that she is still a princess. ”

Jiang Wanxiu raised her eyebrows and said, "Isn't the reception of envoys always presided over by the Minister of Rites?" How are you responsible? ”

Gongsun Jin explained: "The princess doesn't know, the two countries come to envoys, and every time they will compete with each other to promote the prestige of the country, and the countries of the Western Regions know that our southern country is full of talents, and it is difficult to win against us in the competition, so they asked them to come up with questions. And this topic is tricky, I guess the first emperor knows it, but I'm afraid that I will regret it. Jiang Wanxiu remembered.

In the previous life, there were also foreign envoys, and all the ministers were prevaricating in every way, and no one was willing to receive them.

Jiang Wanxiu was surprised, "Shizi has always disliked trouble, how could he take this errand?" ”

"It's not the last time the beauty shop opened, and the prince asked the emperor for a plaque...... At that time, Si Yuguo had already written to the southern country, indicating that he had sent envoys to Beijing, and the emperor saw that someone from Fanbang was coming, and he was having a headache about who would receive him, and someone changed a plaque in order to please his fiancΓ©e. Gongsun Jin said quietly.

Jiang Wanxiu sneered, understood what was going on, looked at Gongsun Jin and said earnestly: "Gongsun Gongzi is the first literati in a hundred years, and he is excellent in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, poetry and songs, and the art of war. With you, no matter what the envoys of the state want to compare, we will win. The prince let Gongsun Gongzi preside over the overall situation, which is really for the country and the people, and people make the best use of their talents and make good use of them. Childe, the important task of raising the prestige of my southern country will be handed over to you. ”

"Mrs. Xie compliments." Song Yuanxi's thin lips were slightly pursed, and his eyebrows and eyes were slightly curved.

Gongsun Jin looked at Jiang Wanxiu, and then at Song Yuanxi, dumbfounded.

is worthy of being a couple of people, this black and shameless style is exactly the same.

"The princess and the princess are really a match made in heaven." Gongsun Jin was silent.

Jiang Wanxiu's face blushed slightly, "Childe praised it falsely." ”

Gongsun Jin was completely convinced.

"What is wrong with the envoy of Si Yuguo this time?" Ghost doctor Guan Yan asked lively.

Gongsun Jin shook his head, "Not yet, the main purpose of their coming this time is to marry the princess of Si Yuguo, and for the time being, I haven't said anything about the competition, the marriage is important, and the competition should be ranked behind." ”

"Princess Si Yuguo? Isn't Concubine Yin Guifei in the harem the eldest princess of Si Yu? Jiang Wanxiu raised her eyebrows and said in surprise.

Gongsun Jin bowed slightly, "The princess who is going to marry this time is Yin Guifei's sister-in-law, more than ten years younger than the concubine Niangniang, it is twenty-eight years to be married, the emperor treats Si Yanguo and the two princesses well, and he also attaches great importance to this marriage, it is estimated that it will not be long before he will find His Royal Highness the prince." ”

As soon as the words fell, Leng Ze walked in and reported, "Master, the emperor announced that you have entered the palace." ”

"Gongsun Gongzi is really like a god." Jiang Wanxiu said with a smile, "The prince of the world is about to enter the palace, I'll go back first." ”

Song Yuanxi rubbed his eyebrows, "Jin, you enter the palace with me." ”

"Yes."

……

The Royal Palace, the Imperial Study.

A map of the territory of the Western Regions was hung on the easel, and the emperor stood in front of the map, his deep gaze fell on the position of Si Yuguo, thoughtful.

"Your Majesty, the prince is here." The eunuch reported.

The emperor turned around and frowned when he looked at Song Yuanxi's lazy appearance, "Let you entertain the envoys, but you haven't even met the people of Si Yuguo, and you are not afraid that I will punish you for a crime of dereliction of duty." ”

"Please ask the emperor to condemn the crime." Song Yuanxi said calmly.

The emperor was choked by him and glared at him, "If it's just a small country, I don't have to ask you to come forward." Si Yu is indispensable for us to control the Western Regions. This time, Si Yu Guo came to make an envoy, and he wanted to marry with the southern country, which was exactly what I wanted, and this matter was very important to my southern country and needed to be treated carefully. ”

The Western Regions is behind the desert, the terrain is complex, the terrain is precipitous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, there are hundreds of countries, if it is forcibly attacked, the gains outweigh the losses.

But if left unchecked, the countries of the Western Regions will have the scourge of invading the southern country.

Therefore, as long as the Southern Dynasty submitted to the hundred countries of the Western Regions, it did not interfere in internal affairs, supported the local kingdoms, and strengthened its control over the Western Regions.

"I don't want the princess of Si Yu Kingdom to marry my princes, so as to avoid some unnecessary trouble." The emperor said, "You should know which of the sons of the powerful are suitable. Choose a good match for the princess, and it's up to you. ”

If you marry the prince, you will easily get involved in the battle for succession.

In case the prince she married finally failed to win the heir, she would also be implicated, and it would affect the relationship with Si Yuguo at that time.

Therefore, the emperor favored the children of the nobility of the neutral party.

Song Yuan shook his head, "The minister obeys the order." ”

"A few days ago, the Queen Mother was still nagging in front of me, saying that her old man's baby nephew has not been married so far, and she wants me to choose a daughter with a superior identity and temperament, and I think the princess of Si Yuguo is very suitable."

The emperor looked at Song Yuanxi and said, "You go back and arrange for them to meet." ”

Song Yuanxi raised his eyebrows, "The emperor doesn't give marriage directly?" ”

"Hahaha, I thought. But the princess wants to personally test the future colt, and if she can't win her, she won't marry. I've already agreed to her request, so I can't go back on it. ”

The emperor looked at Song Yuanxi and said in a serious tone, "I am a dignified southern country, if no one can win a little girl, it will be too embarrassing, so you have to worry about this matter." ”

"Obey."

The emperor laughed, "Although this matter is a little difficult, but leave it to you, I can rest assured!" ”

Gongsun Jin on the side twitched the corners of his mouth, Lord Shizi, you promised so happily, it's not embarrassing for you to dare to love.

……

"Your Royal Highness, why did you slip out again. If Lord Yin Sai finds out, he will ...... again," the maid said worriedly.

"Shut up, it's noisy." Princess Si Yuguo waved her hand impatiently, "Do you think your tongue is in the way, do you want this princess to cut it for you?" ”

The maid had to shut up aggrievedly, "But princess, you are taking the lane......"

"The lane is spacious, and this princess is willing to take the lane!"

The streets of the southern country were full of people, busy with traffic, and the princess of Si Yuguo, Da Lalama, walked in the lane reserved for carriages, so that a carriage that had just turned almost did not brake and almost crashed into her.

"Bang dang." Stumbled, Jiang Wanxiu was sitting upright reading a book and almost fell.

"Su Mo, what's going on?" Jiang Wanxiu lifted the curtain and asked.

Su Mo said: "Master, a woman appeared in front of her, occupying the lane and blocking the way of the carriage. ”

"Miss in front, please let me go." Xi Ling frowned, but he still had a good upbringing.

The woman snorted coldly, "Why didn't you give it to me, why did you want me to give it to you." ”

"This is the lane, there are people on both sides, we can't let it, Miss Gui is going the wrong way, it should be you who let it." Xiling said reasonably.

In the middle of the southern road is a lane, and on both sides are the trails of the common people, even the princes and nobles also abide by the etiquette of travel.

When the surrounding people saw this scene, they pointed at the woman.

"How can this person occupy the driveway, block other people's roads and refuse to let go."

"At first glance, it is a Fanbang Hu person, and he doesn't know how to pay respects, but none of the gentlemen in our capital are so rude."

"That's it, that young lady, you occupy other people's roads, hurry up and let go! It's a blockage! ”

……

Seeing that so many people were speaking disrespectfully to her, the princess of the country was furious, and shot a dart in her hand at the innocent people who were talking about her.

"Su Mo!" Jiang Wanxiu exclaimed.

Su Mo's eyes were quick, his toes were a little bit, and he used his cloak as a shield to catch those darts in a few circles.

"Ahh Murder! The people exploded and fled in all directions.

Jiang Wanxiu stepped down from the carriage, her face was cold, "Arrest her and send her to the official." ”

"Dare to arrest me, do you know who my brother-in-law is?" The two sides took a look at each other.

"It's you!" Princess Si Yuguo glared at Jiang Wanxiu.

Jiang Wanxiu also looked at her, and the picture of Jingzhou two years ago instantly appeared in her mind, her eyes were cold, "Yin Xin'er." ”

At the Show Girls Conference, a woman wanted to compete with Jiang Wanxiu for the Moyue Dagger, and later bribed the flower thief Moon Ghost to attack Jiang Wanxiu.

It's the woman in front of you.

"I didn't expect to meet you here. If you want to arrest me, you arrest me, but I will see which of you dares. Yin Xin'er sneered.

Jiang Wanxiu frowned.

The maidservant fox pretended to be a tiger and said: "Our princess is a distinguished guest that your southern emperor must treat as a guest, and you don't want to arrest our princess." ”

It turned out that she was the princess of Si Yuguo, Yin Xin'er.

"What's going on? Stuck in a road? A clear voice came from behind him, and Mo Zixuan, who was wearing a gorgeous brocade robe, walked over.

"Princess, what's the matter?" Mo Zixuan asked, looked at Yin Xin'er and said in surprise, "Isn't this Princess Xin'er?" You guys...... Know? ”

Today, the princess was visited, the emperor held a banquet to celebrate, and Mo Zixuan also attended the palace banquet, and Song Yuanxi was absent.

"Not only acquaintance, but also rival in love." Yin Xin'er stared at Jiang Wanxiu and asked directly, "What about the person who was with you the year before last?" What is his name, where does he live, since you are in the capital, he should be here, who is he! ”

Jiang Wanxiu's eyes were cold, "It has nothing to do with you, Zixuan, I'll go first." ”

Yin Xin'er stretched out her hand to stop and forced, "If you don't hand him over, you are not allowed to leave." I'm telling you, you're not qualified to fight with me. I came to the south to marry, my emperor's brother-in-law has opened the golden mouth, the civil and military magnates of the Manchu Dynasty, as long as there is something I can see, I will be a concubine. ”

She was reluctant to marry, so she deliberately proposed to take a test for a future colt, making it difficult for others to marry.

And the emperor generously said that she would choose a hundred civil and military officials.

Of course, this is just a scene, if the person who seizes the imperial party is chosen, it is time for Song Yuanxi to use some means to sabotage it.

"Tell me who he is!" Yin Xin'er is aggressive.
