Chapter 178: Princess: The Attempt of the King of Shunan

Concubine Yu blinked, Qin Shou's other hand was still wrapped in white gauze, the small bowl of lotus leaves was crooked, and Concubine Yu's unused porridge was sprinkled all over his palm.

Fortunately, the porridge is not hot, otherwise Qin Shoufei's injury will be added to the injury.

Concubine Yu coughed lightly, she sat firmly, lifted the curtain, and called Shouyang to come in and clean up.

She was also full of eight points, so she simply didn't eat it, and when Shouyang cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, the carriage was finally spacious.

She glanced at Qin Shou and saw that he had removed the gauze on his hand and was changing it by himself.

Xu is hand is not flexible, the long strip of gauze is not very good to wrap on, Concubine Yu didn't say anything to help, she glanced at Shouyang as a matter of course.

Shouyang paused, and then said to Qin Shou, "Don't you, do you need a hand?" ”

Qin Shou looked up at Concubine Yu, and saw that she was playing with the multicolored silk silk white jade pendant around her waist, so he nodded.

After getting the answer, Shouyang leaned over, and it was wrapped in three or two strokes.

After Shouyang retreated, only Concubine Yu and Qin Shou remained in the entire carriage, quiet and silent, only hearing the gurgling sound of the wooden wheels of the carriage, and a strange and uncomfortable atmosphere was spreading and stretching.

Concubine Yu didn't raise her eyelids, from beginning to end, he didn't even give Qin Shou an afterglow, Qin Shou naturally too, either closed his eyes to recuperate, or lifted the curtain of the car, turned his head to look outside, and the two of them never looked at each other.

When it was noon, the whole convoy stopped in front of it, and the carriage in which the concubine was sitting also stopped.

Qin Shou lifted the curtain and looked out, and Shouyang brought a little lady with a face.

The little lady lowered her eyebrows and saluted Concubine Yu and Qin Shou, and then said timidly, "Princess Qiyu, concubine, the prince invited the two of you to come over with some snacks." ”

Concubine Yu raised her chin expressionlessly, and a mottled shadow fell on her face, making her more and more unapproachable, "Since the king of Shunan is invited, the palace and the horse should go freely." ”

Bringing himself to her assertiveness, Qin Shou only glanced at her lightly, and didn't say much on the side.

The two got out of the carriage one after the other, and Concubine Yu took Shouyang with her, followed by Qin Shou, and under the leadership of the little lady, she slowly moved forward.

Not far away, Nanqing, the king of Shunan, was sitting at the table with a black lacquered pear blossom wood four-cornered Luo bent legs, holding the best purple sand tea cup in his hand.

When he saw Concubine Yu and Qin Shou coming together, he immediately got up, his sleeves flicked, and he stretched out his hand, "I've seen the princess and the concubine." ”

Concubine Yu's eyes slipped around the set of tables and chairs, and then fell to the purple sand teapot on the table, and then looked up at the shaded black blue tassel canopy.

"King Shunan, I really will enjoy it." Concubine Yu waved her sleeves and sat down, with a distant smile on the corner of her mouth.

The unsmiling face of the king of Shunan softened, he rolled up his sleeves, and poured tea with Concubine Yu and Qin Shou before saying, "The princess doesn't know, the weather in Shunan is uncertain, this is out of the house, if you don't do it properly, you will definitely be drenched, and the minister thinks that since he is going to pick up the princess, it must be even more proper." ”

What she said was reasonable, if Concubine Yu hadn't been used to hearing such nonsense in the deep palace, maybe she would have really believed it.

Concubine Yu stroked her palms and smiled, "The king of Shunan is thoughtful, otherwise where would he run into the remnants of the Shangguan family, and let them go?" ”

In this last sentence, there was a sudden cold coldness, and the concubine couldn't even bloom ice flowers on the tips of her eyebrows.

King Shunan paused, he put down the purple sand teacup in his hand, pondered for a moment and said, "Princess Qiyu, it's not that the minister doesn't want to catch the official, but the minister can't at the moment." ”

"Hmph, why not?" The concubine is domineering.

The king of Shunan sighed and said, "The Shangguan brothers have 50,000 horses and horses in the hands of the rebellious Suzaku army, which is half of the Suzaku army guarding Shunan, these 50,000 horses and horses now occupy Longshan in southern Shu as the king, and Longshan, located in the middle of Shunan, can directly kill Rurong City when going down the mountain from the west, and the winter side is near the southern barbarian dense forest, the south is by the sea, and the north along the way, it is out of Dayin." ”

"The minister will settle the account for the princess again," the king of Shunan twisted his fingers, dipped it in the tea, and wrote lightly on the table, "Under the minister, full of calculations, there are only 30,000 Shu troops, the people on the Nanban side, no edict, the minister can't move, these 30,000 people against 50,000 horses, even if they win, about the entire southern Shu will be destroyed, but the southern barbarians who are not subject to the jurisdiction of the ministers will invade Dayin." ”

Speaking of this, the King of Shunan looked at Concubine Yu with a cold face, "Princess, it's not that the minister doesn't want to arrest Shangguan, but if Shangguan is damaged, the minister dares to assert that in less than half a day, the 50,000 Vermilion Bird Army can enter Rongcheng." ”

Concubine Yu pursed her lips, she believed what King Shunan said, but she didn't believe that he had no way at all.

Therefore, she said, "You are wrong King Shunan, you have never allowed others to snore on the side of the couch, today you do not remove the remnants of the Shangguan family, it means that tomorrow, this Shunan will still change hands." ”

Hearing this, King Shunan frowned.

Qin Shou, who had been silent, chuckled, and he turned the purple sand teacup in his hand, "What the princess said is very true, King Shunan, you should think about it more, after all, a jackal like Shangguan Mi, if you turn back, it will either be revenge or revenge." ”

Speaking of this, the king of Shunan also heard the determination of the concubine, and he immediately waved his hand with his wide sleeves and said to the concubine, "Minister, but according to the princess's orders!" ”

This means that everything is up to her.

Concubine Yu glanced at Qin Shou lightly, and Qin Shou said coldly, "The king of Shunan doesn't have to be like this, the princess came by order this time, but it was just for the Vermilion Bird Army, where does she understand the next things." ”

"Yes," Concubine Yu continued, "Before leaving, the emperor's brother also told the palace that this place in Shunan Prefecture has been under the governance of the king of Shunan for many years, and it is prosperous and prosperous, that is, even the Nanban is a lot more settled, so that the palace can learn more than the king of Shunan." ”

Hearing this, the king of Shunan immediately became reserved and small, and he touched the blue and gray stubble on his chin, "It is the sage who looks at the minister, and he is willing to give the minister this opportunity, otherwise where would the minister have today." ”

After all, everyone can say such high-sounding words, and if they say something good, they will not lose a piece of meat.

Concubine Yu nodded and pulled the conversation back, "Yes, this matter of the remnants of the Shangguan family, when the palace thinks of a plan, it still needs the cooperation of the king of Shunan." ”

"Nature, nature." The king of Shunan responded in one bite.

At this time, at first, the little lady led the servant to bring up a number of snacks, which were the size of copper coins, and could clearly see the various flowers hidden in them.

The king of Shunan smiled and explained to the concubine, "This is a famous flower cake in the land of Shunan, the princess and the horse can taste it?" ”

Qin Shou didn't like these sweet and greasy pastries, but he naturally took a clean small plate over, sandwiched a small piece of each with Concubine Yu, and sent it to her.

Concubine Yu was accustomed to this kind of service, her little finger twisted up the block, and the sleeve of her dress was half-concealed delicately and took a small bite, and her peach blossom eyes immediately lit up.

"Yes, you can still eat the fresh fragrance of flowers." Concubine Yu didn't use much, she only picked up roses and peonies to bite a small gap.

The king of Shunan only drank tea, but seeing that the concubine liked it, he immediately instructed the maid who was waiting behind him, "Go, find the cook, copy a copy of this secret recipe and send it to the princess's palace." ”

Concubine Yu was not polite, she took something from the king of Shunan, that was to look at him, on the contrary, if she resigned, the king of Shunan would think more.

An hour later, the whole team continued to hurry, and the concubine looked at the flower cake on the carriage case with dark eyes, and she cursed in a low voice, "Another old fox, hum!" ”

Qin Shou, who heard her say this, turned his head to look at her, and when he saw her frowning, he said, "When you stand up, the elder and the princess are naturally old foxes." ”

Concubine Yu raised her eyes, and she unconsciously said what she thought in her heart, "Bengong always feels that he is not sincere in helping Bengong deal with Shangguan Yi's brothers, although what he said is good." ”

Qin Shou nodded approvingly, "The princess is still smart, and she doesn't believe in King Shunan too much." ”

Concubine Yu was bored, she knew that in Shunan, if there was no support from the king of Shunan, it would be quite difficult for her to deal with Shangguan Mi, but she couldn't understand where the weakness of the king of Shunan was.

As if knowing what Concubine Yu was thinking, Qin Shoutan pinched a piece of flower cake, tried to sip a little, and said lightly, "In the eyes of the princess, what does this Kyushu vassal king want to do?" ”

Concubine Yu's moist peach blossom eyes glanced at him, and said angrily, "What else do you want to do, don't you want to do what you did at the beginning?" ”

Qin Shou agreed, "Yes, what about the King of Shunan?" ”

Concubine Yu continued, "He should know better than anyone else that with half of the Nanban bloodline, anyone can do that position, but he can't. ”

Qin Shou saw that she began to think in that direction, so he said again, "The princess can think of it, and the king of Shunan naturally understands it, so Kyushu asked the princess again, what is the identity of the king of Shunan before being recruited by the imperial court?" ”

Concubine Yu rubbed the skirt lines on her knees a few times, "The king of the Southern Barbarians, the leader of the Southern Barbarians." ”

The corners of Qin Shou's mouth hooked a sneer, "The leader of the Southern Barbarians, he is not subject to the control of the imperial court, he is not bound by the Great Yin Rites, he can do whatever he wants, compared to now, he is really free." ”

He only threw the diamond to lead the jade here, but the rest was for the concubine to think for herself.

At that moment, Concubine Yu seemed to have caught a trace of enlightenment, she felt that she was just a little bit away, she could sort out everything, but the difference was always bad, she couldn't break the layer of paper alive or dead.

Qin Shou sighed secretly, Concubine Yu is not unsmart, she is just pampered by the Queen Mother and the saint, and she will not talk to her about any court affairs in the past, so the pattern is too small, and where can she consider the problem from the perspective of the overall situation.

He finally said, "People live a lifetime, there is always a plan, some people are ambitious, some people are loved, and some people are free ......"

Like lightning in the night, this sentence made Concubine Yu completely realize, she looked at Qin Shou, and said word by word, "King Shunan, he wants to stand on his own!" ”

Seeing that she finally figured it out, Qin Shou nodded affirmatively, "Yes, he did this in his previous life, the king of Shunan doesn't want to become a king, he just wants to support Shu to stand on his own, and Nanban is just a country!" ”

In this way, he did not have to compete with the king of the Kyushu domain, and he was able to achieve a dynasty.
