Chapter 117: You Want Treason?
If you want to say that the Chu State is in turmoil, the internal affairs of the Jin State are even more chaotic than the Chu State.
If this is a kiss, I'm afraid that the life of the princess of the new city will have to be folded inside.
Meng Qing pondered for a while and said, "Dare to ask the second prince, the lord of the Great Jin Dynasty already has a queen, is it possible that my new city princess of Dachu married a concubine?" ”
She raised the word concubine very high, the country of Chu has the pride of the state of Chu, and there is no reason for the princess of a country to be a concubine.
Xiao Chuji Wan'er, "No, no, no!" My father is very old, and he has long been blessed, and this peace affair is only to match the marriage of the eldest brother Xiao Haochi and the princess of your new city. ”
Xiao Haochi?
Xiao Yan's eyes darkened.
"Xiao Haochi? But the eldest son of the emperor who came and went without a trace of the Jin Kingdom? ”
"Hey, I heard that this person often wears a mask and looks ugly, and the princess of the new city will be wronged if she marries him!"
Listening to the sound of discussion in the room, Meng Fei was even more worried, and even put his begging eyes on Meng Qing.
But Meng Qing turned a blind eye.
She shirked first: "This matter is very important, I can't give the second prince a reply for the time being, how about I inform after I discuss it with the hundred officials?" ”
"It's fine."
Xiao Chuji drank the osmanthus fragrant liquor, but looked at Xiao Yan who was sitting opposite him with his eyebrows and smiled.
"Presumably this is the famous Emperor Xiao, right? Look up for a long time, look up for a long time! ”
Xiao Yan looked at him coldly, and the blood under his eyes revealed a strange atmosphere.
Xiao Chuji saw that he ignored him, so he hooked his lips and drank with other courtiers.
After Meng Qing drank some spirits, he left the table first after being a little dizzy, and sat on the Luan car and fell asleep dizzily.
And the envoys of the Jin Kingdom were all entertained and arranged by the officials of Honglu Temple, and she just asked occasionally.
This Xiao Chuji came down the whole way, revealing a strangeness.
When he said that he wanted to marry the eldest princess of Xincheng for his eldest brother Xiao Haochi, the corners of his mouth were extremely disdainful, as if for him, it didn't matter if this matter was successful or not.
Maybe they are just using this pretext to find out the truth of Da Chu, but they don't know.
When Luan stopped at Xinuan Pavilion, Meng Fei also caught up.
"Your Majesty!"
Meng Qing stopped and looked back, "What are you doing?" ”
Meng Fei dragged a complicated palace suit, trotted in front of her, and said, "Your Majesty, the minister doesn't want to go to make peace, you must not promise him!" ”
The moonlight is hazy, and the white clouds are fragile and floating.
Meng Qing was dizzy, and only said: "Don't worry, I will think about it carefully, and naturally I won't ask you to marry Jin for no reason." ”
"What do you mean by gratuitous? You mean you're most likely to say yes? Meng Qing! Didn't you listen to what the courtiers were saying? They said that Xiao Haochi was a disfigured monster, how could my dignified princess of Chu State marry such an ugly alien? ”
Ling Yu said sharply: "Princess Xincheng, please pay attention to your words. ”
Meng Fei glanced at her, not taking her words to heart at all.
Meng Qing sighed, and could only comfort her, "Meng Fei, you are my only sister now, I naturally don't want you to marry to the Jin Kingdom, you can rest assured that I will push off this marriage for you." ”
"Are you serious?"
Meng Fei was skeptical.
"Really, you go back to the Purple Sandalwood Hall first and wait quietly, as long as I don't agree, they will naturally pack their bags and go back to the Jin Kingdom."
"Okay, the minister will go back to the palace first."
"Hmm."
Meng Fei turned around three times in one step, got into the princess sedan chair and drove back to the Rosewood Palace.
Meng Qing slowly walked up the steps with Lingyu's support.
Lingyu said: "Your Majesty, this Jin Kingdom is only here for the sake of harmony, which is quite strange. ”
Meng Qing paid attention to his feet, his brows furrowed.
"Yes, that Xiao Chuji has been very strange since he entered the palace, as if this matter of harmony is dispensable, and it is just a casual mention, it doesn't matter if we agree or not."
"Indeed, it stands to reason that this second prince shouldn't really want the princess of Xincheng to marry Xiao Haochi."
Meng Qing held his forehead, "He naturally doesn't want to, the queen of the Jin Kingdom only has two sons-in-law, one is the eldest son Xiao Haochi, and the other is him, and the two of them are the most likely to inherit the throne." And I heard that the queen of the Jin Kingdom favors the younger son, ignores the eldest son, and is very estranged, and now the emperor of the Jin State wants to marry the daughter of the royal family of the Chu State for the eldest son, so it is equivalent to saying that Xiao Haochi has the support of our Chu State, which is extremely beneficial for Xiao Haochi to ascend to the throne of the crown prince. This Xiao Chuji doesn't want Xincheng to marry him, and it's also reasonable, after all, who doesn't want to be the emperor? ”
"What the emperor said is that I don't know what kind of wishful thinking they are making. But it doesn't matter, we have adults here, don't worry about any conspiracy and tricks played by the Jin Kingdom! ”
Meng Qing smiled and did not speak.
Does she care about how her wishful thinking goes? What she cares about is whether Xiao Yan will have any connection with the Jin royal family!
If Xiao Yan has anything to do with the royal family of the Jin Kingdom...... Meng Qing didn't dare to imagine what would happen next. As long as there is one Xiao Yan, there will be countless Xiao Yan, and now she can only beg that Xiao Yan is a real Chu person.
After the dinner, Xiao Yan left the palace.
……
Shaw House.
The night is as cool as washing, floating and hazy.
A green tent car with long eaves stopped in front of the Xiao Mansion, and Steward Li hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.
Xiao Yan got out of the car, and Steward Li whispered in his ear.
I saw that his eyes were deep and hidden, so he raised his feet and went to the house.
Zhong Xuan held this ever-bright lamp in front of him, and the light pierced the night and illuminated the bluestone path.
It wasn't until they came to a gazebo that everyone stopped.
The pavilion bucket arch cornices are extremely exquisite under the moonlight, there are several dim lights hanging at the corner of the eaves, and there is a man in a snowcoat lying on the side of the pavilion, with a little red mole in the center of his eyebrows, and earrings, which makes him extremely eyebrow-clear.
"It's back......"
Xiao Yan clenched the red sandalwood Buddha beads and asked Zhong Xuan and the others to go down.
He stepped into the gazebo, his eyes projected on the glass of wine on the low desk, and the wine reflected the crescent moon.
"What are you going to do?"
Pei Jiuzhi tossed the wine in his glass, tilted his head and said, "Why, don't let me come." Well? Xiao Haochi? ”
Xiao Yan had a calm face, "That's not what I meant. The letter does not say that you will come too. ”
He got up with a smile and drank the spirits.
"Although the letter does not say, I will come. My aunt asked me to come here to bring Xie Yunzhi back, and let me warn you, don't have any undeserved feelings with the people of Chu State, after all...... The royal family of the Jin Kingdom is your home. ”
Xiao Yan clenched the Buddha beads, his face was still cold, "Xie Yunzhi, not with me." ”
Pei Jiuzhi's face changed, "Not with you?" So where did he go? ”
"I don't know, I haven't seen him in half a year."
"Damn! Hou Ye and the eldest princess are already dying! My aunt gave a death order this time, if I can't bring Xie Yunzhi back, I have to stay in Chu State! ”
He looked at his cousin, whom he hadn't seen for more than ten years, when they were young, they used to read and play together, Xiao Haochi was still a little shorter than him, and his appearance didn't inherit half of his aunt's appearance.
