Chapter 270: Forced to marry an old man 3
Zhu Lin also received a gift, which was not expensive, but exquisite, it was rouge gouache from the Chu State, silk and satin. The person who gave the gift was, of course, the king of Chuzhuang.
Xia Ji spread out the silk book and saw the strong handwriting of King Chuzhuang.
After reading it, she gently put the silk silk aside.
The eight new maids were separated on both sides, but Bi Tao and the others were excluded, and they didn't dare to make a sound. The leader is a particularly sharp and toothy palace maid of Chu State, she smiled and respectfully: "Congratulations to Niangniang, congratulations to Niangniang, my king intends to accept Niangniang as a concubine, this is a great blessing for Niangniang......"
Natsuhime smiled faintly.
It is indeed a blessing for a woman who has died in a country, the wife of a king in a dead country, to be accepted as a concubine by the king of an enemy country - at least, unlike other concubines who have become servants, or simply become official prostitutes, and sink into a dormitory for the rest of their lives, never to turn over. And she, Xia Ji, still has a concubine to do.
Although she was demoted from a queen to a concubine, it was enough to make many women with the same fate envious.
She understood this, but smiled silently.
"Please go back and report to the King of Chu, Xia Ji thanks the King of Chu for his love, and he will definitely live up to the king's heart. ”
The palace maid who said that the matchmaker didn't expect her to agree so happily, but she was a little unaccustomed to it, and she was stunned, but she was quickly relieved, thinking, women are all water-based poplars, plus this woman looks so charming, so amazing and beautiful, she is desperate, and now she is listening to the king of Chu who wants to marry her, so she is naturally happy, and she no longer dares to take a shelf.
She already had contempt in her heart, but when she thought about it, Xia Ji was so beautiful and amazing, she had already made King Chuzhuang fascinated, and this time, she would definitely be favored, and if she offended her, there was no good fruit to eat, so she immediately put away her contempt, extra politeness, and extra enthusiasm.
Xia Ji made a look, and Bi Tao held a brocade box, which was full of jewelry: "This little meaning is given to you by my mother." ”
The matchmaker was so surprised, but she was overjoyed: "Thank you Niangniang! ”
Xia Ji said lightly: "Please give this letter to your king." Xia Ji is a woman, and she only has a heartfelt guard by Jia Xin. He also begged the king to show mercy and forgive Jiaxin once. ”
"Okay, the slave and maid will go back and reply to the king. Niangniang, you are so well prepared, the king has chosen an auspicious day, and will officially marry Niangniang. ”
"Please also thank the king for his grace for Xia Ji. ”
The maids left, Bi Tao was anxious, and quietly: "Niangniang, do you really want to marry the King of Chu?"
She smiled slightly, subconsciously looking at the sky outside the window.
The glazed tiles above the head are so brilliant, so bright, like a mirror, the blue sky and white clouds can be seen clearly. Bi Tao, she was captured on the road, she had never seen Prince Chen in the army again - she had no idea that King Chen, who was extremely affectionate in the past, had already broken off with Queen Eun......
In my heart, I only know that King Chen, who was extremely fond of the queen in the past. Now, the country is ruined, the queen is remarried, and Chen Wangquan knows how to grief?
Natsuki was silent.
Bi Tao knew that she was speechless, and she sneered: "Alas...... In fact, the king of Chu is really a righteous gentleman, much better than many men, and marrying him is not disgraceful...... Moreover, if the country is ruined, we must always find a place to live. If you disobey the king of Chu, no one will survive......"
