225. Another wave
Now, the words are clear, and the agreement has been signed. The rest is just waiting for things to ferment.
Although Liu Xinning is closed, Xiao Muze is still active outside to find out the news.
And because the marriage between the two of them was already a certainty, the eldest princess did not prevent them from meeting, and the king of war was even more happy to see it.
"Now, everyone outside says that you have annoyed the Holy One by going to intercede, and the Holy One has asked you to think about it behind closed doors at home."
Liu Xinning sat on the chair, and Xiao Muze took an orange and peeled it.
"From this point of view, the matter of the imperial study that day really didn't reveal the slightest rumor."
"Nope. When we went that day, we asked the saint to retire from the palace, leaving only the eunuch Tai guarding the door. So the person in the know is let's add Tai Dajian. Tai Dajian is a holy person, so naturally he didn't reveal it. ”
Xiao Muze handed the peeled orange to Liu Xinning.
"Didn't those people suspect anything about you? After all, you were in the study that day. ”
Liu Xinning took the orange and asked suspiciously.
"Nope. Our two families have always been closely connected. Our relationship is also known to many people. So, it's normal for us to intercede for you, so no one doubts what we're doing. ”
"So? However, you haven't been able to come all the time lately. In case it is seen by others, it will arouse suspicion again. ”
"Oh."
Xiao Muze responded, but there was a feeling of grievance in his voice.
Liu Xinning stopped eating oranges and glanced at Xiao Muze, suspecting that she had heard it wrong.
"Every time I come, I sneak in over the wall, and no one sees me." Xiao Muze saw Liu Xinning looking at him, and quickly explained.
"......, our family's guards are useless?"
"That ......," Xiao Muze stood up, "When I came in, I asked the secret guard to lead them away." ”
Looking at Liu Xinning's expressionless face, Xiao Muze hurriedly picked up a plate and handed it to Liu Xinning.
"I ate too many oranges and got angry. You eat this, this is your favorite treasure cake. ”
Liu Xinning looked at the pastry in front of her.
This Duobao cake is the town shop pastry of the century-old pastry shop 'Zhen Yu Shop'. The daily sales are limited and there are a lot of people in line.
And she never bought it, but she ate it every day.
At first, she thought that Xiao Muze asked her subordinates to line up to buy it.
However, after they decided on the family affair, when Chun Nuan inquired about Xiao Muze's news, he learned from Ling Yi that Xiao Muze himself went to queue up to buy this pastry every day.
Things are not precious, but the heart is very sincere.
"Let the next person buy pastries in the future. Where is it worth when you go to the queue? Liu Xinning broke it directly.
"I didn't have anything to do, so I bought it by the way." Xiao Muze said with a smile.
"You're helping Cousin Nine with things, what's okay? Speaking of which, Cousin Nine's side ......"
Liu Xinning's words were interrupted by Ling Yi, who came to see him with a cold face.
"The prince, the county lord, the envoy of the Wu Dynasty has come out again."
"What moth? Do you urge the Holy God to make peace with me? Liu Xinning sneered.
In the past few days, not only the court, but also the people have been divided into two camps to quarrel over whether the Qing Dynasty should have a noble daughter and relatives.
The envoys of the Wu Dynasty watched the debate of the ministers and generals in the court of the Qing Dynasty, and only watched it as a joke.
Now that you've seen enough of the jokes, you want to rush to settle it?
"It's not. In the recent peace talks, when the princess of the Wu Dynasty was decided to whom the princess of Chaoxia was given, the envoys of the Wu Dynasty said that their princess was the princess of the Wu Dynasty. They didn't dare to marry any prince, so they wanted to marry the prince. Ling Yi hurriedly said.
"Marrying ...... The Son? Liu Xinning's head slowly turned to Xiao Muze, "Marry him?" ”
"Yes."
"What's going on? When did it happen? Xiao Muze was also shocked. He didn't know the news.
"At today's court meeting, the envoy of the Wu Dynasty mentioned it. The prince has just returned to the house and asked his subordinates to pass the news to you so that you can go back and discuss. ”
Xiao Muze does not have an official position now, so he is not qualified to go to the court.
"......, why are we here in Huohuo? Is my relationship with my cousin getting out? ”
Liu Xinning was puzzled.
first asked her to marry the prince of the Wu Dynasty, and now let Xiao Muze marry the princess of the Wu Dynasty.
She had a very reasonable suspicion that their marriage had been spread, so someone had deliberately blocked the two of them.
Seeing that she couldn't kill her, she changed her mind directly?
Liu Xinning's doubts, Ling Yi naturally couldn't answer.
Fortunately, Liu Xinning was talking to herself, but she didn't need an answer.
"What's the reaction of the court?" Xiao Muze then asked.
"The prince directly said that you have already made a marriage, and you can't marry the princess of the Wu Dynasty. The people in the court didn't believe it, but when they saw that the saint didn't say anything, they didn't say anything in front of the court. And the Holy One is still noncommittal. ”
Isn't that noncommittal?
Originally, Emperor Qingping wanted to see who the lord and the people were, but he came out again and asked the royal ministers to marry the princess of the enemy country.
Presumably, Emperor Qingping has to observe the dynamics carefully.
Xiao Muze and Liu Xinning were silent.
I don't know if this is the idea of the envoys of the Wu Dynasty themselves? Or is someone bewitching them something?
Xiao Muze left in a hurry, ready to go back to the house to discuss with the King of War.
However, Chun Nuan looked at Xiao Muze who left, and at Liu Xinning, who was frowning and thinking, and opened her mouth hesitantly.
"County Lord, you said before that everything is a matter of state. In this world, the prince will not really marry the princess of the Wu Dynasty, right? ”
"How so? My relationship with my cousin was personally approved by the emperor's uncle, how could I let him marry the princess of the Wu Dynasty? ”
Liu Xinning said disappreciatively.
"If so, what about marrying both?" Chun Nuan hesitated and said cautiously.
"What do you mean?"
"Let the county lord be your wife, and let the princess of the Wu Dynasty be your wife......" Chun Nuan didn't dare to continue.
The Qing Dynasty and the Wu Dynasty have been at war all the time, and there is rarely anything to make peace.
However, the Qing Dynasty had good relations with other border countries, but there were things of harmony.
This princess of another country is a flat wife, which not only reflects the importance of women in this dynasty, but also treats women from other countries well.
This is also an option in the case of necessity. Therefore, Chun Nuan thought of this aspect.
And listening to Chun Nuan's words, Liu Xinning was stunned. She'd never thought about it before.
She only thought that she was a wife, and agreed with Xiao Muze not to accept concubines, but she didn't expect that there would be a flat wife......
Most of the wives are businessmen, because it is inconvenient to take their families around.
Therefore, in the place of business, a woman who marries in the way that the media is marrying.
The flat wife will also be called a wife, and she can also be a director of the house, and she is known as the eldest wife of the main room.
The wife of an official is naturally not allowed to do such a ridiculous thing because she wants to make a decree or an edict.
Thus, a flat wife is recognized by secular rules, but not by the law.
Xiao Muze is the son of the war king, and it stands to reason that there can only be one main room. However, there are exceptions to everything.
Especially, when it comes to national affairs.
Not serving a husband with her is her bottom line; Rather for the broken jade, not for the whole tile, it is her heart.
So, if Emperor Qingping really made an order, what should she do?
