Chapter 253: Candidates
In another place, Gongji also returned to the post house after the palace banquet, and he waved away the people who followed him, and then he looked at the figure that came from the depths of the dark night.
The man's skirt moved slightly, step by step to the light, and his appearance gradually appeared in front of him.
She was dressed in the costume of a Western maid, covered with light veil, revealing only a pair of eyes.
Gongji looked at her and raised his eyebrows slightly: "The princess hasn't rested yet?" ”
The man took off his veil, his face was like glass, his face was like a hibiscus, and he was the princess Yongmu who had fallen off the cliff and disappeared for a long time, and Mei's Mei Cen Niang.
Yongmu flicked his skirt and sat down at the table: "I haven't returned yet, and I don't know the situation of the palace banquet, how can I sleep peacefully?" ”
She looked sideways at Gongji: "I don't know that at today's banquet, Xiao Lingjiang can be seen in the prime minister?" ”
Gongi bowed his head and sat down across from her.
"What do you think of her?"
Gongji smiled and said, "The deeds of Princess Xiao Lingjiang of Yong'an, I heard a little about it when I was in Xifan. But when I saw it today, I didn't expect it to be just a delicate girl who was still young. If it weren't for what you said earlier, Princess, I would have thought that the deed was an exaggeration. ”
"I heard that there is such a saying in Da Zhou called 'people can't look good', and it is appropriate to apply this sentence to her."
He had previously proposed that Xifan wanted to marry the princess of the Great Zhou, and at today's palace banquet, he directly took out the treasures and jewelry from the Western Fan to the princesses of the Great Zhou.
suddenly made such a move, even if those princesses of the Great Zhou tried their best to remain calm and noble, they still had panic and worry in their eyes that could not be hidden.
After all, none of the princesses of Da Zhou, who were pampered and raised in the rich city, wanted to go to their west to make peace. If Xifan bites to death and asks one of them to make peace, no one can guess the emperor's intentions.
However, only Xiao Lingjiang, the princess of Yong'an, was still in a calm state when she took him to offer the treasure. It's just an ordinary courtier, offering carefully prepared treasures, just to make the princess smile.
Facing her noble and self-conscious appearance, even Gongji, who claims to be an old fox, can't help but tighten his face slightly.
Yong Mu snorted lightly when she heard this, she didn't hear Gongji come to praise Xiao Lingjiang for coming.
"In that case, the Prime Minister should know that what I said earlier was not an exaggeration. At the beginning, the Shengong and Xifan secretly plotted to use Nanzhao to capture Yaozhou, and at the same time unite the civil unrest in Rongqu and the two prefectures to completely disrupt the south of the Great Zhou. But the appearance of Xiao Lingjiang has ruined all this. ”
"Now Xifan is being invaded by both the Great Zhou and Nanzhao, which is due to Xiao Lingjiang."
Seeing that Gongji was in his mind, she continued: "Since the king of Xifan intends to use the matter of peace and relatives to temporarily win over the Great Zhou, in order to plan for the future. Then this candidate for harmony is set as Xiao Lingjiang is the best. ”
"For a person like Xiao Lingjiang, staying in Da Zhou is a great help. She was able to eliminate the Divine Palace and Pingyao Prefecture for the Great Zhou before, and then the Great Zhou really started a war with Xifan on another day, so what her next sword refers to is Xifan! ”
Gongji's eyes were slightly deep when he heard this: "What the princess said, I naturally know." It's just that a sharp weapon like Xiao Lingjiang is brought to Xifan, and it can't be used by me, but it will accidentally cut myself. Why should I bother with it? ”
Yongmu chuckled: "Daxiang still wants me to remind me?" The sharp weapon in the opponent's hand can either be snatched and used for his own use, otherwise, it is naturally the best to ruin. In Yingdu, you and I can't do anything to Xiao Lingjiang, but when we reach the realm of Xifan, without a family and country, she has great ability, and she can only wait to be killed, right? ”
Gongji shook his head slightly: "What the princess said is simple. But the Great Zhou Emperor is not stupid, a person like Xiao Lingjiang who can be used, even if he has a slight problem about his background, he can still let it go. It can be seen from this that compared to the thorn in his own heart, the emperor is more willing to keep someone by his side. ”
He glanced at Yongmu and said meaninglessly: "I see, there has never been another princess in the Great Zhou royal family who is as valued by the emperor as Xiao Lingjiang. It's the princess, as the eldest daughter of the Great Zhou Emperor, once lost its value, and now it's not ......"
Yongmu and Xiao Lingjiang both returned to the royal family one after another and entered the division, but the later encounters between these two people were very different.
When he led the delegation to the junction of the Great Zhou and Western Tibet, he met Yongmu, who took the initiative to find him.
The dignified princess of Da Zhou fell to the point of running around, and he was puzzled.
Yongmu said that he had been in the rivers and lakes since he was a child, worshiped under the gate of the Divine Palace, and later returned to the royal family, although he was in the position of a princess, he was also dedicated to the Divine Palace.
Gongji had been in contact with the people of the Divine Palace before, and Yongmu took out the certificate again, so he never doubted it.
Yongmu returned to Yingdu again with his heart, messed up the Great Zhou royal family, and revived the power of the Divine Palace. The so-called enemy of the enemy is a friend, and Gongji naturally doesn't mind taking her to this experience.
But now he sees that her words and deeds are deliberately aimed at Xiao Lingjiang.
Gongji smiled contemptuously in his heart, after all, he was a woman.
He admonished: "Princess, since you are here to return from the Divine Palace, then don't just focus on Xiao Lingjiang." ”
Yong Mu noticed the contempt in his eyes, and his heart was angry, but he still forcibly pressed it down, and said coldly: "I have my own reason for Xiao Lingjiang. The power of the Divine Palace was destroyed step by step, and the plans of Nanzhao and Beidi failed, which place was not more or less related to her? ”
"If you don't focus on the key points, no matter how much effort you put into the side details, it will be in vain."
"It doesn't matter if the prime minister looks down on me, but if you are blindly self-conscious, you will ignore Xiao Lingjiang like this, and it will be Xifan who will suffer at that time!"
Gongji heard that there was a thin layer of frost on his face, and this Yongmu was really sharp-toothed and sharp-tongued, and he was not easy to deal with. I can't complain that under the search of the Great Zhou Wude Division and the Buyuan Division, I can still escape.
The Divine Palace standing behind her has not completely fallen yet, and if Xifan wants to use troops against the Great Zhou in the future, it is the best choice to use the Divine Palace to act.
Now, I really have to be patient to discuss cooperation with her.
Gongji's heart turned slightly, and his expression gradually eased.
"I know the princess's painstaking efforts. But the question is still that one, how could the Great Zhou Emperor agree to Xifan's invitation and send Xiao Lingjiang to make peace? ”
When he sent out the envoy, the king of Xifan only asked him to maneuver and asked the emperor of the Great Zhou to allow peace and kinship, so as to stabilize the relationship between the two countries and free up his hands to deal with Nanzhao.
As for which princess it is, whether it is a real princess or not, the king of Xifan doesn't care, and Xifan doesn't care.
But after Yongmu knew about the invitation of his relatives, he insisted that he would choose Xiao Lingjiang. He saw Xiao Lingjiang himself today and knew that what she said made sense.
But the key is, how to get the Great Zhou Emperor to agree?
Don't wait for the time to arrive, and even mess up the matter of marrying relatives.
