Chapter 40: The Emperor's Intentions

Su Yuqing smiled lightly and performed the usual salute, as if her face was shy and happy, which made Xue Yihan's fist hidden under her sleeve clench. Su Ho'er's eyes drooped slightly, looking at the obviously protruding white knuckles, and the silver teeth in her mouth almost wanted to be crushed.

"Sister, you are about to marry in the Western Regions, He'er is still coming and congratulate you, today, with the blessing of His Royal Highness the Third Prince, He'er wishes you a deep love with the ancient Khotanese prince Floice, and Qin Se Yonghe." Su He'er's eyes were a little ruthless, she took a step forward, her eyes were like a soft whisper, and the words she said were sharp and piercing, and the pupils of everyone present shrank.

Su Yuqing was angry in her heart, she asked herself if she treated this blood-related sister well on weekdays, why did she have to force each other so much? Didn't she get what she wanted? Why do you have to hold on to it?

The third prince, Xuanyuan Jinghao, heard Su He'er's implied provocation, looked at Su Yuqing faintly on his face, and said: "The prince is so sincere and sincere, accept his auspicious words, Yuqing will definitely turn evil into good fortune, and everything will go well." ”

A fluttering sentence relieved Su Yuqing, but Su Yuqing didn't appreciate it, she frowned, what is this talking about? Isn't this a curse for her?

Xue Yihan narrowed his eyes slightly, glaring at the third prince fiercely, how could he not know the meaning of the third prince's words? Su Yuqing is a weak female stream, marrying in that kind of place, it is really dangerous, not to mention that I heard that the prince of Khotan is not interested in marrying the princess at all, but the king of Khotan insists on this, probably to promote the prestige of the country, no matter what, his son is married to the daughter of Emperor Wuqian, but he can show off in the surrounding small countries, if he learns that his daughter-in-law is just a county lord who marries on behalf of him, what will happen?

"This time, Your Majesty ordered me to personally escort the county lord of Jingyue to Khotan and relatives." After thinking about it, Xue Yihan still said it.

Su Yuqing lowered her eyes, her long eyelashes covered her emotions, and her heart was full of dust, making it difficult for her to adapt. The rumors and slander that have been surging in the capital for more than a month, she didn't believe that the emperor hadn't heard of it, in this case, he also sent Xue Yihan to escort her, and the deep meaning of this made her feel cold to the bone when she thought about it.

The three princes were surprised and also understood what the emperor meant, the Xue family has always been in a high position, Xue Yihan's father is a king with a different surname, and was given the title of Jing by the first emperor, hereditary three generations, Xue Yihan as the son of King Jing, became the general of Zhenbei at a young age, holding an army of 300,000 in his hands, although he handed over the military talisman, but his name has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the army. This is good or bad for the emperor, both to use and to prevent. King Jing has always been sent by the emperor to guard the frontier, and he is not allowed to return to the dynasty without an edict, and Xue Yihan grew up in the capital since he was a child, as the son of King Jing, he also has the intention of house arrest, but what everyone didn't expect was that Xue Yihan was unusually obedient and was the most qualified hostage under the emperor's nose.

It's just that the emperor's heart is too unpredictable, last year there was chaos in northern Xinjiang, and the emperor ordered Xue Yihan to take command, and he didn't have any good intentions, who knew that Xue Yihan actually returned with a big victory, and the emperor had no choice but to make him the general of Zhenbei. This time, the emperor ordered him to escort Su Yuqing, and the danger of his intentions was even worse than going out to take command.

Moreover, in addition to this layer, there is a second meaning for the emperor to send Xue Yihan to send his relatives. It is rumored that the Khotanese prince is ruthless, although the Khotanese king wants to make peace, the prince doesn't seem to want to, but he is afraid that he will secretly attack. And the only person who can stop it seems to be Xue Yihan.
