Chapter 358: Receiving gifts by order
The fourth prince of Xirong left in a hurry, not giving Luo Xing a chance to refuse, but in the corridor at the door, he took a look at Qingyi, who came to find Luo Xing, and saw that Qingyi was so beautiful.
The fourth prince, Singa, couldn't help but tease.
Qingyi didn't know the fourth prince, but he also recognized the other party's identity from the other party's clothes, especially the unique Xijon dirty braid hairstyle.
Just one word in return: Get out!
If this is on the street, I am afraid that Qingyi will fan it with a big ear scraper.
The fourth prince of Xirong also seems to know that this is not his own territory, if he is really entangled, he is only afraid of suffering, the one in the house can easily win even the second-grade martial sect, and he himself is only a second-grade martial sect cultivator.
"Xiao Qi, who is the person who went out just now, so rude?" Qingyi is in the yamen, and she is directly called by name. Calling "husband" is a bit too indiscriminate.
"Fourth Prince Xirong, did he harass you just now?" Luo Xing's six senses are keen, although he didn't see what happened outside the door just now, but he heard it, and naturally understood what was going on, of course he was angry.
"It's fine, it's just a bedbug."
"Hehe, it does stink." Luo Xing was amused by Qingyi's metaphor, and the smell of the Xirong people was indeed a little rushing.
"Is this a gift from him?" Qingyi saw a gift list on the bookcase, took it curiously, and was surprised, "Why are there four little girls from Xirong?" ”
"What?" Luo Xing didn't take the gift list seriously, anyway, he wouldn't accept the things given by the fourth prince, let alone bring them back.
Unexpectedly, this guy actually sent four people to him.
This Xijon people are too ...... to give gifts
"Quick, Chanjuan, chase after the four princes of Xirong and return all the gifts on it to me!" Luo Xing hurriedly called out to Xu Chanjuan.
If it is ordinary property, he will not accept it, and hand it over to the governor to deal with, whether to return or stay, it is not his own business, but this person is different, Xirong's little girl can never be accepted, accept it, can it still be kept at home?
After a while, Xu Chanjuan came in to report that the person had already gone far away and couldn't catch up.
"Don't move any of these gifts, all of them will be sent to the Xirong Embassy, just say that it is the duty of the official to save him, such a heavy gift, I dare not accept it!" Luo Xing commanded.
"No!" Xu Chanjuan took the order and left.
"This fourth prince of Xijon, what does he want to do?" Qingyi asked curiously, "This is another wooing, another threat, and sending you back, is his brain broken?" ”
"Xirong is not like us, the battle for the throne is more bloody and cruel, this fourth prince can stand out among many princes, by no means an ordinary person, his move must have a deep meaning, but we still can't figure it out for a while." Luo Xing Road.
"Uncle Meng said, are you going to the ghost market tonight?"
"Yes, go see the mysterious ghost woman, and by the way, buy some maids and servants to come back, the inner courtyard and the outer courtyard are separated, and you must always cultivate some caring people!" Luo Xing said.
"Well, I'll go with you, right?" Qingyi's eyes flickered a few times.
"Okay, I originally wanted to call Brother Tieniu, since you want to go, let's go together." Luo Xing naturally didn't mind bringing Qingyi, he estimated that he rarely cared about the people in this house.
"Call the Red Shadow, right?"
"Okay."
The red shadow is bored at home, and it really needs to come out to relax, and after coming back, he will practice, that is called a hard work, if you want to hurry, you can't reach it, but you also have to combine work and rest, and go out to the ghost market together to relax.
"Qingfan, they won't go, it's an unbearable memory for them." Luo Xing said.
……
"Your Majesty, early this morning, the fourth prince of Xirong went to Nanya to see Luo Xing with gifts."
"Oh, is he going to thank Luo Xing for saving his life at the Anyang Ferry Inn?" Emperor Yongxi, who was on the throne, put down the scroll in his hand and asked with interest.
"It should be, but the gifts have been returned by Lord Luo, and now they are stacked at the gate of the Xirong Embassy, and there are four young ladies from Xirong."
"The Xijon people are still consistently barbaric and uncivilized, and even people are used for gifts?" Emperor Yongxi smiled.
"Your Majesty, the things sent out by the Xirong people will not be taken back, but Lord Luo returned the gifts again, and those belongings are just fine, easy to deal with, but what about the four little Xirong ladies, you can't ignore it, starve to death, freeze to death, isn't it the benevolence that hurts my Great Zhou?"
"Toothless, what do you think should be done?"
"The old slave thinks that it is okay to let Lord Luo accept this gift, anyway, isn't there a woman named Hongying by his side?"
"That woman has been abandoned by Sijon, what do you want to say?" Emperor Yongxi asked.
"These four little ladies from Xirong will be handed over to this red shadow for cultivation, if they can be used well in the future, it will be a good move for the imperial court." Wei Wuya said.
"Well, it makes sense, I think about it, Luo Qing didn't accept the gift of the fourth prince of Xirong, it was his reason, but I asked him to accept it, this is different." Emperor Yongxi nodded.
"Seven Joys, Message ......"
……
"Father-in-law, is this really what His Majesty said?" Luo Xing received the holy decree, and he was also in a daze, this Emperor Yongxi was idle every day and had nothing to do, so he still cared about it?
The rites are all returned, and then they are taken back, isn't this child's play, what is this?
However, since the emperor has given an edict, he has to accept this gift, but the four little girls from Xirong are clearly the eyeliner of the Xirong people.
Don't look at their young age, but their parents and family are all in Xirong, as long as they take care of it a little, they can't be obedient?
This is an immature little she-wolf cub.
"Which turtle son came up with this bad idea?"
"Void, Seventh Brother, you have to be quiet, it was suggested by Gonggong Wei of the Imperial City." Qixi hurriedly covered his mouth and whispered.
"Wei Wuya, I gave him no grievances and no hatred, why harm me?"
Qixi doesn't know what to say, Luo Xing is from Nanya, and he has this relationship with him, and behind him is Wang Haifeng, and the relationship with Wei Wuyan is quite subtle, and several items are superimposed, isn't it related?
"Joy ...... Father-in-law"
"Seventh brother, you and I are still so angry, called Qixi, Xiaoxizi is okay." Seven Joys said with a resentful glance.
"Brother Qixi, although Your Majesty's holy will is unpredictable, but as the person closest to Your Majesty, you can see some of this, this time Your Majesty asked me to accept the gift of the fourth prince of Xirong, what is the deep meaning?" Luo Xing humbly asked.
"Seventh brother, I don't dare to guess Your Majesty's thoughts, but now it is the case of the mastermind behind the assassination of the fourth prince of Xirong, do you understand?"
"Does Your Majesty want the truth, or does you want the truth about Your Majesty?"
Qixi smiled and did not answer.
Luo Xing still doesn't understand that Emperor Yongxi just wants to detain the mastermind on Ye Liuli, and when the time comes, she will have to accept and kiss.
Exchanging the daughter of a former prince for a few years on the northwest frontier is decades of peace, so that he can free up his hands to deal with Southern Chu, which is a very good deal.
……
"Your Majesty wants to exchange the happiness of His Highness's life for the tranquility of the Northwest Frontier." Luo Xing sent Qixi away, and when he came back, he sighed and said to Qingyi.
"Then what should I do, even if you find out the truth, I'm afraid that Your Majesty won't accept it, and you won't be allowed to announce it." Qingyi said urgently.
"Yes, this is the will of the superior, if you don't obey, then you can only replace it with an obedient person." Luo Xing said.
The truth is not worth mentioning in the face of the so-called big picture.
Unless he can change Emperor Yongxi's mind, or if there is a stronger force that can change the overall situation, otherwise, even if the truth is found out, he can't change anything.
"Women are just bargaining chips, and interests are the most important thing." Luo Xing continued, "Your Majesty now needs a stable Xirong and a business path that can bring wealth, and His Highness is a key chess piece. ”
"Then what should I do, really let His Highness marry the wolf lord of Xirong, a man bigger than His Majesty, and ruin her life?"
"I want to help too, but what can you and I do?" Don't blame Luo Xing for being selfish, in fact, he is not a person from this world, and he doesn't have too much sense of belonging to this world.
Even if he had a relationship with Ye Liuli when he was a child, it was not something he owed Ye Liuli, not to mention that it was just a brief encounter as a child.
Yes, Ye Liuli helped him a lot, and he really should help, but he has to do what he can to help, his current power and status are all given by Emperor Yongxi.
Yes, he doesn't care about that, but his current identity is this, can he say get rid of it?
People, alone, can be carefree, when there is a lover, relatives, he can no longer be careless.
This world will not necessarily progress because he has come, but it will definitely leave traces of his own and different wonderful.
He has always wanted to leave Nanya and live the free life he wants, but the reality has connected him more and more closely with Nanya.
Even if he has accumulated enough merit points to break away from Nanya now, I'm afraid it will be difficult to pat his ass and leave.
A person lives, in addition to survival, there is also responsibility.
As for what he is pursuing, he does not have a clear goal in his heart, he can only say that what he wants to do and what he wants to get at this stage, as for the further afield, he can't imagine it yet.
It's too far.
Some people aspire to be the first person in the world, some people want to become the richest man, and some people want to create their own sect and so on.
And Luo Xing, he just wants to be able to live freely and unfettered with his beloved one day under this blue sky until the day when dust returns to dust and dust returns to earth.
What kind of king wants to dominate the industry, it is all empty, illusory, and in the end it is not a handful of loess?
Who in this world has ever heard of a spirit beast that can live forever, a powerful spirit beast like the Dragon Mother of the South China Sea, and there is also a lifespan limit, and as for the legendary Spirit Venerable, it seems that he has finally sat down.
"Actually, Your Majesty has also entered a misunderstanding, this is not necessarily the best way, on the contrary, it may be the worst." Luo Xing said.
"Huh?"
"Think about it, His Royal Highness is the daughter of the former prince, yes, that's right, the former prince rebelled and couldn't commit suicide, but no one is a fool, the body of the first emperor may go west at any time, the prince is the prince, is it necessary for him to rebel and seize the throne? What's more, he is still young, and he can't afford to wait, that is, three or five years, but if he is not charged with this crime, then His Majesty will not be right to take the throne immediately, and people in the future may not understand, but who does not understand the ministers in this court, they are all pretending to be confused, he held back and sent His Royal Highness to Xirong and his relatives, it seems that he can't see it, but in fact, it is a faint trick, this His Highness was forced to marry Xirong, and went with hatred, and Xirong and Da Zhou will really coexist peacefully because of this, is it possible? Luo Xing smiled, "Anyway, I don't believe it, and His Royal Highness enters Xirong, once the wolf lord of Xirong starts an army to attack Zhou, then there will be an excuse, if it is not good, this Great Zhou Dynasty will be destroyed in the hands of His Majesty!" ”
Qingyi listened, and her heart was "bang" straight jumping, this is not impossible, with her understanding of Ye Liuli, this princess is by no means the kind of woman who is obedient, if there is revenge, she will definitely not let go of Emperor Yongxi to force herself and her relatives.
"Also, if His Royal Highness is forced to marry the wolf lord of Xirong, he will really give birth to a son for the wolf lord of Xirong, then this son will be the son of the world, and when the time comes, civil strife in Xirong will definitely be indispensable, this must also be what our majesty wants to see, but it is not what the wolf lord of Xirong wants to see, His Highness has Tianlan Sect behind him, if Tianlan Sect really wants to enter Xirong, this is a golden opportunity, this is not just a two-party game, a three-party, or even a four-party game." Roshing continued.
"Actually, if His Royal Highness is really behind the assassination of the fourth prince, then if the wolf lord of Xirong knows, he may not necessarily have to marry her, right?"
"The ability of the wolf lord of Xirong is considered to be among the top monarchs in Xirong in the past, and kings like this have a problem, that is, they are quite confident, with his cultivation and control ability, he feels that he can control everything, this competition is bloody and cruel, as long as it is within the controllable range, he will not feel that there is any problem, and this kind of man also has a common problem, that is, the more you can't get it, you want to get it, and conquest is a belief in Xirong's bones!" Luo Xing said, "If His Highness succeeds in arousing the desire of the Xijon Wolf Lord to conquer, then it will be troublesome. ”
"Will it?"
"Qingyi, if you study what Xinli, the wolf lord of Xirong, has done over the years, you will understand that there are many women in his harem, and many of them are snatched from other tribes, and even directly exterminate people and turn other people's women into their own."
"But this is the tradition of their Xijon tribe to attack, and the victor gets the loser woman and wealth?" Qingyi said.
"This is indeed their tradition, but once this practice penetrates into their blood, and as a wolf master, Xin Li will unconsciously take this behavior for granted, which is why we always feel that the Xijon people are barbaric and uncivilized, and aggressive." Luo Xing said, "Of course, this is just our discussion and speculation, how we will choose, it depends on the development of the situation, Your Highness is not completely hopeless, until the last moment, you can turn the tables at any time." ”
Qingyi nodded.
In fact, anything is valuable, as long as the benefits are big enough, it is not impossible for the Xirong wolf lord to give up his bid to marry Ye Liuli.
After all, Ye Liuli is just a woman, even if she is a princess, in the eyes of the Xirong wolf lord, she may just be a tool for fertility, at most, she can give birth to a descendant with a better bloodline, and he has to pay a lot for this.
Liuli Temple didn't know what to think, why did it allow Tianlan Sect to reach into Xirong with one hand, and it wasn't worried that Tianlan Sect would replace it?
