Long Dailan didn't understand why the little giant suddenly said this, but it was inconvenient for her to ask questions at the moment, because she saw the fourth uncle and the fifth aunt coming over, along with the fifth aunt's husband, Chen Mingyuan, the governor of Giant Hammer Province, and his two daughters. [Ran^Text^Library] [][For more exciting novels, please visit] Qin Shuo stood up and said hello, and then returned to his original position to find someone to drink.

"My dearest niece Dai Lan, I really want to congratulate you!" Long Shuntian, who was already in good health, stepped forward to congratulate with a smile. The king of Miancheng was wearing a wide gilded silk robe, with sparse eyebrows, a straight beard on his upper lip, and silver threads on his sideburns, but he was actually only thirty-eight years old.

Chen Mingyuan, known as the "Noble Gentleman", was dressed in a straight jacquard silk dress, although he was nearly fifty years old, but his eyebrows were clear, but he was not old at all, he had a signature smile on his face, "Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, Mu Xia knows that you are pregnant, she is really more excited than she was pregnant back then, I can't wait to put on my wings and fly to see you, no, I specially customized a pair of eagle wings for our carriage, otherwise we are afraid that it will take two days to arrive." ”

Long Muxia looks very much like her eldest brother, with high cheekbones and a slightly long face, she is not a beauty, but she was born in a royal family, and her temperament is extraordinary, she glanced at her husband with disgust, "You also know that Dai Lan is Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, and she speaks so improperly." She took one of her daughters by the hand and pulled them over. Long Dailan almost didn't know these two little sisters, the last time she saw them was at her wedding, when they were twelve years old and one eleven years old, three years later, the two little girls were a lot taller, fortunately, they inherited the appearance of their father instead of their mother, and now they are charming and cute beautiful girls.

"Thank you, Fourth Uncle, Fifth Uncle, and Fifth Aunt. My sisters are so cute, they're about to get married. The fourth uncle and the fifth uncle have to help them find a good family. Long Dailan held the hands of her sisters and smiled sweetly. Being with relatives makes her happiest the most.

"This problem shouldn't be given to me, aren't you making it clear that you're laughing at the fourth uncle, the fourth uncle has no one to marry, how can you have the ability to find a good son-in-law, so you won't delay my nieces!" Long Shuntian laughed heartily. It is true that he has remained single and has refused numerous aristocratic favors. Long Dailan heard a secret rumor that the fourth uncle didn't like women, only men. In another piece of news that she also couldn't confirm, the fourth uncle had a very close relationship with the national craftsman Qiu De, and Qiu De happened to be a bachelor.

"Shulan did have a vassal who came up to mention marriage, and I agreed to him. Shuju, not yet. The smiling Chen Mingyuan glanced at Qin Shuo's direction and whispered, "I think the third son of the Qin family is quite good, he is really a giant in my clan, heroic and powerful, and his aura is extraordinary." The age difference is six years, but it's nothing, or why don't Your Highnesses help you be a matchmaker?"

It's a good thing to get the door right. However, the little giant may have a marriage contract, and the object is the golden horse minister, the daughter of Mo Feng in the Long Fence City, but it has not been officially announced. "Fifth uncle, if you don't have a marriage contract, it's no problem, I can ask, if you have it, then you can't do it. But don't look at other people's tall horses, when it comes to marriage, he runs faster than a mouse. ”

Long Muxia covered her mouth and smiled: "I can't see this, but I like it more! Dai Lan, you must talk to him well!"

Long Shuntian interjected and said: "It's not common for such a simple young man to be in these years, fifth sister, you have picked up a baby, I see that you are in a hurry." ”

"You are also not serious, my daughter is going to marry, not me. Everyone laughed. Shuju blushed and hid in Long Dailan's arms.

Long Dailan's seventh uncle Long Qitian, sixth aunt Long Yiyu and eighth aunt Long Fengzhu also came over, and the family inevitably exchanged pleasantries. Finally waiting for them to disperse, Qin Shuo slipped over again.

Long Dailan said: "Chen Mingyuan plans to make you his son-in-law. ”

The little giant's eyes widened: "That's not good, sister-in-law, you have to politely decline for me." Just say I'm ......."

"Let's just say you already have someone you like, right?"

"I don't want to get married yet, and my second brother hasn't started a family yet...... There is no reason for me first. "The little giant is hesitant, just shirking.

Long Dailan remembered the previous conversation and stopped making fun of him, "It seems that you haven't finished what you said just now." ”

"But isn't it, sister-in-law, the current shepherd tide is rising, and Zedi is also making trouble, in fact, the kingdom is not at peace everywhere. You are not only my sister-in-law, but also the eldest daughter of Your Majesty, and there are some things that I think I should let you know. I don't usually see so many people coming, my brain, I don't necessarily want to think about it, but when I see it, I think I should tell you, after all, you will also be my mistress in the future, and you will lead our Qin family. Not to talk about marriage, Qin Shuo seemed to be much more energetic, and took a glass of rose dew wine from the plate handed over by the maid, "I know that my sister-in-law is the best, and you won't be surprised when you say this, and you won't be as villainous as some adults." In fact, our Qin family, if it weren't for His Majesty's grace and my father's ability, he might not be able to convince these adults. Of our three brothers, I am the worst, and my eldest brother is naturally the most powerful, but even if my eldest brother takes over the provincial governorship in the future, he may not be able to make the adults obey him!"

"If you don't have evidence, you can't talk nonsense. Long Dailan suddenly felt a little inexplicably nervous. "They were all courtiers loyal to the kingdom. ”

The little giant took a big sip of wine, and whispered a little vaguely, "It's superficial." His Majesty is seriously ill in bed, and many people are making small calculations. Just like this Lord Zhao in Guangming Harbor, it is not once or twice that he secretly conceals taxes, he uses this money to raise a lot of soldiers, my father knows it very well, but at present, he has to start trading from Moro Country at a low price, and he is indispensable to build a bridge from it, so he opens one eye and closes one eye. As long as he's not too out of line, Daddy won't touch him. But what Lord Zhao wants to do, who of us can say for sure, is he secretly expanding his power just to protect Guangming Harbor? ”

"Shhhh Long Dailan looked around, but fortunately no one paid attention to what they said. In fact, the little giant has been keeping his voice down, but he is afraid that the listener will have a heart.

In the past three years, Long Dailan had never thought about these aspects, because she didn't want to know more about these noble vassals in the local area. Why didn't she do this? In the future, she would assist the husband in ruling the golden horse, instead of sitting in the Qingfeng Hall as a carefree little princess like before.

In the nine provinces of Xianglong, the provincial governors are directly appointed by Long Jun, but the local positions in each province are in charge of the provincial governors, and under normal circumstances, Long Jun will not interfere in them. This is an ancient system. A thousand years ago, in the era of city-states, the predecessor of the Xianglong Kingdom was an alliance formed by various large city-states, united in order to fight against foreign enemies. The influence of the major families is extremely great, each has its own territory, and it is deeply rooted in the local area, and after the founding of the first Dragon Monarch Saint King Yugu, he relied on the belief of the boxers in the dragon god to establish his authority. On the first day of January in the first year of the Xianglong era, the god of the earth, the spirit dragon, showed his true face to the believers on the top of the holy mountain, and gave the family name "dragon" to Yugu, and then every 100 years on the day of the dragon's face, the dragon god would accept the bow of the dragon king and the believers on the top of the holy mountain, and bless the Xianglong Kingdom. Therefore, the wealthy families in various places were willing to bow down to Long Jun's knees and accept his leadership.

The governors of all provinces have strict control over the vassals, and the same is true for the Qin family, such as the number of soldiers under the vassals, there is a clear number control. A port city like Guangming Port, which is open to the outside world and relatively wealthy economically, belongs to the front line of the kingdom and is allowed to have a maximum of 20,000 soldiers, which cannot be exceeded. According to what the little giant said, Zhao Liancheng was afraid that he had stolen an excess of the number of people. This is indeed something worth paying attention to, Qin Wei knows about this matter, Qin Shuo knows, and Qin Ming must also know, but she doesn't know yet. She felt ashamed.

Suddenly, she felt that the celebration had become a little sour, and the joy that had filled her heart was suddenly gone. She sat on a high wooden platform, glanced at the guests she knew and did not know, and could not help but ask herself, did she really know all those people who looked familiar, how well did she know them? Not to mention the princes of various places, even the important ministers of the court and the cabinet, did she really know everyone?

Just when she was in a trance, Mu Rong returned, and the little giant changed back to its original position. "Son, let me introduce you to this distinguished guest. ”

Only then did Long Dailan find that her mother-in-law was followed by a strange man. The man was only a little taller than her, but rather handsome, with a small bun on his head, dressed with silver pins, a long bun of hair tied in a braid at the back of his head, a fair complexion, a bearded upper lip, and a mustache on the lower lip. He was wearing a thin silk robe with a collar and a green waist, and the ** white wooden shoes on his feet were quite eye-catching, which was not like a boxer, but the attire of an overseas islander.

"This is the third prince of the kingdom of Moro, Zaima, on behalf of his father, King Tanyuko, and the country to say hello. It's the first time he's been to the Golden Castle. Mu Rong said.

Long Dailan was a little surprised, and hurriedly smiled and greeted, this was the first time she had seen the prince of the Moro Kingdom. She should have thought that the kingdom of Moro might send an emissary.

The handsome prince bent his left knee in front of her, and said in the proficient lingua franca of the dragon: "The god of the sea blesses you, Your Highness." Your beauty is amazing, and in my country, you have never seen it. ”

The prince knelt, which was unimaginable among the boxers. But Long Dailan heard Gu Sheng say that when the men of the Moro Kingdom saw the woman they liked, they used this to show their love. Thinking of this, she blushed, and hurriedly went to help Zayima, but the prince stood up, but took her hand, and said, "My father has heard of your happy event, and has ordered me to come and congratulate you." You are a fairy blessed by the god of the sea, and I regret I didn't meet you earlier. ”

Long Dailan withdrew her hands, Zayimo was still a little reluctant, and a pair of eyes stared straight at her. Mu Rong heard that something was wrong with this, and hurriedly said, "Prince Zaima, my son and daughter over there, I'll introduce you to you." ”

Zaima nodded politely, "Very good, Mrs. Law." As he said this, his eyes were still fixed on Long Dailan, and it was not until he took a few steps that he withdrew the fiery gaze that made Long Dailan blush.

It's really rude, but fortunately he wasn't encountered earlier. Long Dailan secretly breathed a sigh of relief
