A few days later, King Yong entered Beijing with his family. On the same day, Tang Shuyi gave a lecture to Li Jingyi in the palace, and the two inevitably talked about King Yong.

Li Jingyi said: "King Yong is the prince of the original Rouli Kingdom, and he came to Beijing this time to explore the water in Shangjing. ”

Tang Shuyi snorted, "What do you think?" ”

Li Jingyi thought for a while and said: "It is reasonable for him to do this, after all, he was not a big cadre in the first place, and if he wants to gain a firm foothold, it is inevitable to grasp the information of the court." ”

"Anything else?" Tang Shuyi asked again.

Li Jingyi thought about it again, and then said: "The country of Rouli has become a part of the Great Qian, and the Yong King must obey the Daqian, and he must let him know that he is now the Yong King of the Daqian, not the Yong King of Rouli." ”

Tang Shuyi nodded approvingly, but she said: "King Yong must obey the Great Qian, and the Great Qian must also be able to accommodate the King Yong and the original soft people." Only by embracing all rivers can the sea be broader. ”

Li Jingyi: "So we have to be gracious and powerful." ”

Tang Shuyi smiled, "That's right." ”

.......

King Yong came to Beijing in advance, Li Jingyi gave him a mansion early, and transferred some eunuchs and palace maids from the palace to send King Yong's family on the same day.

On the second day, King Yong entered the palace to meet the emperor. Entering the imperial study, he respectfully bowed, Li Jingyi walked in front of him, bent down to help the person up, and said: "I have long wanted to see Aiqing, and today I finally got my wish." ”

King Yong got up and looked at the young emperor in front of him without a trace. Fifteen or sixteen years old, but with a long build. His face was a little immature, but his speech and demeanor were calm.

Although he is far away in the northwest, he also has some spies in Shangjing. knew that the new emperor was supported by the Duke of Dingguo, and the Duchess of Dingguo was his teacher. It's just that I don't know if this little emperor is afraid of Dingguogong's family.

The two of them sat down and talked, talking about some family routines and some folk feelings in the northwest. It seems like a simple chat, but there are many temptations between words.

King Yong originally wanted to say directly today that he would let his daughter enter the palace. But after the conversation, he put the thought down for the time being. The little emperor in front of him, although he is young, is not easy to fool at all.

Moreover, regardless of whether the little emperor was jealous of Dingguo Gong, Dingguo Gong now has the ability to subvert the imperial court. So, he wants to look at the situation.

And Li Jingyi saw that he didn't mention his daughter, and while breathing a sigh of relief, he was thinking that there was anyone in the clan who was the same age as King Yong's daughter. Don't you just want to marry, find someone in the clan to marry.

When King Yong left the palace, he gave a post to the Guogong Mansion, saying that he was going to visit tomorrow. On the second day, he took his daughter to the Dingguo Mansion.

Xiao Huai and Xiao Yuming entertained King Yong, and Tang Shuyi and Xiao Yuzhu entertained King Yong's daughter Xia Dailan.

Xia Dailan is thirteen or fourteen years old, with a round face and big eyes, wearing a purple narrow-sleeved long dress, and she looks very heroic. Tang Shuyi talked to her for a while, and then asked Xiao Yuzhu to play with her.

The two went to Xiao Yuzhu's courtyard first, and after talking for a while, Xia Dailan asked Xiao Yuzhu: "Have you seen the emperor?" ”

Xiao Yuzhu was stunned for a moment, and then said quietly: "I've seen it." ”

Xia Dailan asked, "How does the emperor look?" ”

Xiao Yuzhu thought for a while, "Still... Yes. ”

What else could it mean? Does your second brother look good? Xia Dailan asked.

Xiao Yuzhu thought for a while, "Everyone's vision is different, in terms of appearance, the emperor and my second brother are equal." ”

Xia Dailan frowned and thought for a while and said, "My father wants me to marry the emperor, I think it is better to marry your second brother than to marry the emperor." ”

Xiao Yuzhu: "......"

Is it so direct?

"That..."Xiao Yuzhu pondered the language and said, "You may not be able to marry my second brother." ”

"Why?" Xia Dailan asked.

Xiao Yuzhu: "My second brother has already been married, and he will get married after the New Year." ”

Xia Dailan's brows furrowed, "Then do I have to marry the emperor?" ”

Xiao Yuzhu: "......"

She can see that this girl has a straight personality and has no heart. But even so, Xiao Yuzhu didn't say that she couldn't marry the emperor. She has a straight temperament, but the king is not.

However, except for the topic of who Xia Dailan married, the two chatted very speculatively. In the end, the two also made an appointment to go to the horse farm to ride horses together.

King Yong's father and daughter had lunch in the Dingguo Mansion before leaving. Back in the palace, King Yong asked Xia Dailan what he had done in the Dingguo Mansion today.

Xia Dailan said one by one, and finally said: "I asked Xiao Yuzhu, and he said that the emperor and Xiao Yuming are similar in appearance, so I said that it is better to marry the emperor than to marry Xiao Yuming." Xiao Yuzhu said that Xiao Yuming has already made a marriage and will get married in the next year, but I don't want to marry the emperor. ”

Yongwang: "......"

Don't you have a crooked brain?

"Then what did Xiao Yuzhu say?" King Yong asked.

Xia Dailan: "I didn't say anything! ”

King Yong took a deep breath, his daughter's brain was not of the same grade as others. It seems that the matter of letting her into the palace really has to be carefully calculated.

At this time, I heard Xia Dailan say again: "Father, why do you have to let me marry? Can't you use my eldest brother and second brother? If they can't, father, you can't marry yourself. ”

Yongwang: "......"

Pressing his aching temples, he waved his hand to let Xia Dailan out. You can't talk to her anymore or you'll be.

…………

After Xia Dailan left, Xiao Yuzhu wrote a letter to Li Jingyi and told her what Xia Dailan told her. Li Jingyi was nervous for a while after seeing the letter, and hurriedly replied to the letter as a guarantee.

Xiao Yuzhu received his reply at night, and when she saw the caution between his words, she lay on the bed and smiled. Actually, she didn't take Xia Dailan very seriously.

King Yong is a smart man, and after learning about the situation in Shangjing, he will make the wisest choice. He wants his daughter to enter the palace, which is nothing more than to stabilize his position in the court and in the northwest. But if his daughter is self-defeating, she will be beaten with chickens and eggs.

At the same time, Li Jingyi began to select people of the right age in the clan. So a few days later, when Xiao Yuzhu and Xia Dailan went to ride horses, several sons of the clan also followed. And Fan Dagongzi heard that Xiao Yuzhu went to the racecourse, and he also followed.

Today's racecourse can be described as very lively, and almost all the top powerful ladies in the capital have arrived. Xiao Yuzhu introduced Xie Xihua to Xia Dailan, "This is Miss Xie Er." ”

Then she whispered to Xia Dailan: "She is my future second sister-in-law." ”

Xia Dailan looked Xie Xihua up and down, and then said nothing. Although she felt that marrying the emperor was better than marrying Xiao Yuming, she didn't fall in love with Xiao Yuming.
