Chapter 460: Extremely ugly
In the splendid imperial city, the emperor's anger has not subsided, but only because one wants to marry a daughter, and the other does not want to marry!
However, they did not know that three thousand miles away, outside the Dynasty Sai, it was a good time for the sun to set over the long river, and at the end of the ancient trade road with withered grass, a long marching army set up camp in the hinterland near the river valley.
In a luxurious carriage with many brocade-clothed guards, the warm fire was burning brightly, exuding a strong warmth. A woman in a white brocade robe was leaning lazily on a wide rattan chair, draped in a red neon cloud brocade robe, and the elegant window screen cast a thin afterglow, reflecting on the girl's pretty face that was enough to overwhelm all beings, showing that she was quiet and smiling.
This woman is naturally the princess of the dynasty who returned from the Western Jin Dynasty, Ji Ling.
"Princess, there is a letter from the court, would you like to take a look at it now?" a woman's voice sounded outside the carriage.
Princess Ji Ling rubbed her somewhat stiff arm, which was due to the soreness and numbness caused by holding one position for a long time. She lightly lifted her lips and said lightly, "Take it in......"
The heavy curtain was lifted, and a well-dressed woman stepped in and carefully handed the letterhead in her hand to Princess Ji Ling.
Princess Ji Ling let out a long sigh and finally took the letterhead.
The beautiful woman stood aside respectfully, she carefully observed Princess Ji Ling's expression, she knew that whenever the princess received this kind of letter from the court, she was reluctant, after all, the content of this kind of letter was some boring political affairs in the court, and the scholars of the Hanlin Academy recorded what happened in the court every more than half a month, and sent it to the princess by fast horses.
Princess Ji Ling opened the letterhead, slowly read the contents of the letter, and shook her head from time to time, there was indeed no difference from usual, it was all trivial things in the court, boring and boring.
When the princess of the dynasty was halfway through it, she completely lost interest, threw the letter aside, and said in a low voice: "It's all boring things, Yan'er, take it and burn it!"
"Yes, master!" The handsome woman known as Yan'er placed the letterhead above the fire, ready to burn it, but just as the letterhead was about to touch the flames, Princess Ji Ling's gaze suddenly swept to the line at the back of the letterhead!
"In the Dynasty Young Instrument Master Competition, Beigong Yu, the young master of the Instrument God Temple, was defeated, and the champion was lost!"
"Next to the champion?" Princess Ji Ling's beautiful face flashed with a hint of surprise, and she hurriedly called Yan'er and motioned her to take the letter back!
Yan'er and Princess Ji Ling stayed for a long time, so she naturally understood what she meant, so she handed the letterhead back into Princess Ji Ling's hands. Scanning the letterhead again, Princess Ji Ling was obviously a little disappointed, but her unstretched eyebrows showed that she seemed to be thinking about something!
It's a pity that this letter didn't introduce much about this year's Young Instrument Competition, just a few words, and didn't even explain who won Beigong Yu, maybe in the eyes of those scholars in the ivory tower, the champion of a young artist competition may not be as important as a township show, after all, there is a difference between civil and military, and different ambitions!
Although she was a little disappointed, it was obvious that Princess Ji Ling's mood had improved a little, and she wondered in her heart that the only person who could win Beigong Yu on the Nanchuan Continent was Murong Yan, the seventh prince of the Western Jin Kingdom!
This time when she went to the Western Jin Kingdom in person, Princess Ji Ling really realized the status of this genius prince in the hearts of the people of the entire Western Jin Kingdom!
"I didn't expect him to be so good, even Beigong Yu could win? It seems that my father's vision is still very good!" Princess Ji Ling said in a low voice, but she didn't know that he had confused the identity of the person who won the championship.
Yan'er, who was standing beside her, glanced at the princess's stretched willow eyebrows, knowing that she was in a much better mood, so she dared to ask: "Princess, Yan'er is bold, I don't know who the princess is referring to?"
Princess Ji Ling's beautiful eyes swept over Yan'er, and a smile suddenly bloomed on her face, as holy as the snow lotus stuffed here!
"We just went to his country, I didn't expect this Murong Yan to be so good, it seems that what my father said is right, this Murong Yan is really the first-class person today!" Ji Ling said this, but she couldn't remember Murong Yan's appearance in her mind, and they had only met three years ago.
Two flowers, one for each!
In the splendid imperial city, the atmosphere in the imperial study is still a little depressing, the emperor has never lost face like today, but the young man in His Royal Highness is as stubborn as an old ox pulling a plow, and he can't eat oil and salt at all!
After a long confrontation, the emperor still sighed after all, if he really wanted to order the head of this young man, Ji Wenchang at this time was really reluctant, you must know that in addition to this young man in this world, how can there be a young talent who can win Beigong Yu!
"Okay, you Danxuan, you are really bold, do you want to resist and disobey?" Li Zhongxian was angry, and his sharp voice was like that of a woman.
In the face of such a rebellious hat, even Dan Xuan was inevitably a little apprehensive in his heart, but he was used to being tenacious, and once he decided, it would be difficult to correct it!
"Don't dare!" Dan Xuan bowed again, his tone still full of stubbornness.
The palace maid who served the emperor in the corner of the imperial study, looked at the young man who fell to the ground, but the little heart had already jumped to her throat, this palace maid was the woman wearing a pendant who had discussed Danxuan in the side hall before, she had been in the palace for a long time, and she had never seen someone who dared not buy the emperor's account like this, this young man was too bold, this was obviously joking with his own life! is talented, and she is also a princess of the dynasty, it is difficult for ordinary people to see each other, let alone marry home as a wife, but this young man seems to be reluctant, and he is still pushing out!
"Don't you dare......?" Li Zhongxian wanted to question, but Ji Wenchang's voice rang out.
"Okay......" The emperor's face finally softened, he glanced at the stubborn young man below, finally sighed, and said slowly: "If it weren't for the fact that you won the Temple of the Instrument for me, do you think I really wouldn't dare to cut off your pig's head?" Since you are reluctant, put this aside for the time being, maybe in a while, you will come to ask me to marry Ji Ling to you!"
Dan Xuan hurriedly bowed again: "The Holy Sage, the Virtuous and the Sage, is really a generation of Mingjun!"
Dan Xuan's words are not flattery at all, but words from the heart, just ask which emperor in the past dynasties can be so generous!
When he left the palace, it was already evening, outside the south gate of the palace, Dan Xuan looked back at the tall palace wall behind him, but he still had some palpitations, fortunately, this emperor is still reasonable, and his bearing and mind are commendable, otherwise with his attitude just now, it would be enough to be cut off three heads!
It's just that this Princess Ji Ling can't get married, this Emperor Wenchang is so anxious to marry her, I'm afraid that this Princess Ji Ling's appearance must be extremely ugly, otherwise how can it become a dead stock!
If she hadn't been extremely ugly, how could she not dare to show her true face with a veil every day!
The more Dan Xuan thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible, and he was very glad in his heart for his previous insistence, otherwise marrying such an ugly wife and going home, even if he was a princess of the dynasty, it would be a terrible thing!
Dan Xuan is getting more and more intelligent and powerful, otherwise the happiness of his life will really be ruined in the hands of that ugly princess! In the future, he will stay away from this splendid imperial city, it is too terrible here, there are always some people who want to marry a girl and want to go crazy to force themselves to obey, it is simply a sheep into a wolf's den!
Dan Xuan thought about it like this, but he didn't know how Princess Ji Ling, who was far away from the edge of the dynasty, would feel if she heard Dan Xuan's voice and called her a "unsalable goods"!
