Chapter 110: Political Marriage
Today's Limo Square has completely changed its appearance, adding a touch of different atmosphere.
Hundreds of Imperial Guards dressed in yellow suits and carrying long knives at their waists lined up around the square, their eyes shining brightly, looking at the crowd of onlookers.
The area around the square is still crowded, but the center is much more vacant, and it is no longer crowded.
Up to now, there are only more than 100 people left, and now more than 100 people are lined up in the center of the square, and their faces are solemn.
The high point of the general platform was already full of yellow curtains at this time, revealing a strong royal atmosphere. There were several people with special identities sitting on the stage, Emperor Qing, Zheng Sixiao, Hu Qiming, and the crown prince Gao Shengtian, dozens of officials stood behind them, with respectful expressions between their eyebrows.
This time it was at Hu Qiming's request to see what the strength of the young masters in the Central Plains was.
Taking a sip of tea, Hu Qiming smiled and said: "Your Majesty the Qing Emperor, there are countless outstanding descendants of the Central Plains, and they have far surpassed Mengluo, which really makes me feel ashamed." ”
Emperor Qing waved his hand, pointed to a soldier who was standing beside Hu Qiming, and said with a smile: "Master Hu Qi's words are wrong, look at the Mengluo Iron Armor Battalion you brought, all of them can be called the elite of the elite, if the two countries go to war, I'm afraid we will suffer a big loss, and then I will ask you to be merciful to Master Hu Qi's subordinates." ”
As soon as Emperor Qing said this, Hu Qiming immediately looked shocked, quickly stood up, bowed down and said in fear: "Your Majesty Emperor Qing, you are too serious, since the establishment of the dynasty, Dagao has always been friendly with us Mengluo, how can there be a war between the two countries." ”
I have to say that Hu Qiming's expression at the moment is very realistic, he is indeed a veteran of officialdom, and he is very skilled in various methods, and he deserves to be called the fox of Monro.
When Emperor Qing heard this, he smiled and said: "Master Hu Qi doesn't have to be too modest, before the Mengluo elite mastiff battalion and the correction battalion secretly sneaked into the western frontier of the Central Plains, fortunately they were discovered by the defenders of Zhongzhou in time, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable." If the two countries go to war, then this elite force lurking in the western frontier will become the most deadly sharp knife and plunge directly into the hinterland of the Central Plains! It will cooperate with the Mengluo Iron Cavalry on the outskirts of the Qinhe Grassland, and this will even threaten the safety of Tianjing! Could it be that Master Hu Qi still thinks at this time that there is no possibility of war between the Central Plains and Monroe?"
"Or maybe I don't have the will to fight, but I was forced to fight!" Emperor Qing looked at Hu Qiming with a smile on his face and sighed slightly.
The Qing Emperor's words did not give Hu Qiming the slightest face, mentioned what happened in Western Xinjiang, and ruthlessly exposed his false face.
The muscles on Hu Qiming's face trembled imperceptibly, Xijiang is a scar in his heart, his only son Hu Qimur died in Xijiang, if the murderer can be found, then he will definitely do his best to put him to death.
He himself knew that a war between the two countries was inevitable, so he rolled his eyes, smiled wryly, and said, "Your Majesty the Qing Emperor, you are really too worried. Everything that happened before was a misunderstanding, and before I came to Tianjing, our Emperor Monroe repeatedly told me not to clash with Dagao and to show our favor to His Majesty the Qing Emperor. ”
When Emperor Qing heard this, he shook his head and smiled, without words.
Seeing this, Hu Qiming continued: "My emperor confessed that in order to make friends between Da Gao and Meng Luo for generations, my Meng Luo royal family is willing to send a prince or princess to marry the Da Gao royal family. And after the marriage, the prince or daughter of Munro will remain in Tianjing forever. ”
When Hu Qiming said this, he deliberately stopped to see the reaction of Emperor Qing and Zheng Sixiao.
Marriage between the two countries!
In history, marriage has always been an effective means of maintaining peace, and this time it was Monroe who wanted to take the initiative to show goodwill, and Hu Qiming had no reason not to believe that the Qing Emperor would not be tempted. He believed that in order to prevent the Central Plains from being trampled on by the Monroe Iron Cavalry, what if he gave up a prince or princess? After all, in this way, the benefits were all from the Dagao Dynasty.
But contrary to his expectations, when Emperor Qing heard this, his face was still the same unfazed look, his eyes looked into the distance, and there was a faint smile between his eyebrows, without the slightest emotion.
Zheng Sixiao was the same, with a smile on his face, but he looked at Hu Qiming with an idiot look in his eyes, and the mockery became more and more obvious.
This made Hu Qiming wonder very much in his heart, could it be that the Central Plains people, who had always been not belligerent, had changed their temperament, or had already made other arrangements for the Qing Emperor?
Ignoring Zheng Sixiao's mocking eyes, Hu Qiming hurriedly said: "Your Majesty Emperor Qing, our Monroe has already put on such a posture, I don't know what you think?"
Emperor Qing turned his face and said with a faint smile: "This marriage is really a great benefit for Da Gao. I wonder if your Emperor Munro has any other requirements?"
Hu Qiming couldn't figure out the meaning expressed in the Qing Emperor's eyes at all, and replied: "Back to His Majesty the Qing Emperor, in order to make friends with the Da Gao generation, my emperor did not make any other requests except for marriage. ”
Zheng Sixiao interjected with a smile: "Emperor Meng Luo is really broad-minded, for the sake of peace between the two countries, he can even put his son as a hostage." ”
Hu Qiming's face was slightly stunned, and then his face showed a faint anger, in their impression, the people of the Central Plains were all weak like sheep, bullying at will, but today they didn't expect that Zheng Sixiao would say such sharp words, without leaving the slightest face for himself.
"What are these Central Plains people thinking in their hearts?" Hu Qiming's eyes narrowed slightly, and his mind turned rapidly.
"Haha, Master Hu Qi, please forgive the old man for being rude. Seeing that Hu Qiming's face was not very good-looking, Zheng Sixiao continued: "I wonder when Master Hu Qi thinks it is appropriate to arrange this marriage?"
"It's just early autumn, I wonder what His Majesty the Qing Emperor thinks?" replied Hu Qiming.
"Early autumn? It's already midsummer, and it's less than two months before early autumn, why is Emperor Monroe so anxious?" Zheng Sixiao frowned slightly.
"Si Xiao, I'm asking His Majesty the Qing Emperor's opinion, can you also speak for His Majesty the Qing Emperor in your capacity?"
"It doesn't matter. Emperor Qing said with a smile: "The prime minister has full authority to handle the affairs of the court and even the royal family." If Master Hu Qi has anything important, he can directly discuss it with Zheng Xiang in detail. With that, Emperor Qing turned his face directly and looked at the young talents in the audience.
The muscles on his face jumped fiercely, and Hu Qiming was really a little confused, why the Da Gao Dynasty had such an attitude towards him this time. I remember that thirty years ago, when I went to the former dynasty of Great Chu, all the officials of Great Chu were respectful to themselves, and even Chu Tianxi, the last emperor of Great Chu, respected him very much.
"Master Hu Qi. Zheng Sixiao opened his mouth and said: "As for the marriage, it is too important, we need to discuss it carefully, naturally we can't benefit all of us, let you Monroe suffer." ”
Unexpectedly, he touched a gray nose today, Hu Qi was obviously not very interested, and the light in his eyes was flowing, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
