Chapter 487: Audience (II)
The sudden announcement stunned everyone, and immediately caused a buzzing discussion.
King Zhan personally withdrew from the marriage, the reason is very sufficient, although no one really believes in the eight characters or something, but it is a fact that Feng Zhiping has indeed suffered disasters since the date of his engagement.
First the brothers turned against each other, Feng Zhiyou was forced to leave home, and then Feng Zhiping was kidnapped by people around him and almost died, wandering outside for more than a year before being found.
Having said that, how could King Zhan's expression not be right?
There is also Feng Moxiu's attitude, and at this moment, in addition to "the eight characters do not match", "climbing another high branch" seems to be a very reasonable reason.
As for why this "high branch" emperor is willing to give, it is not difficult to guess after careful consideration.
Feng Moxiu and other figures, the emperor naturally wants to hold it firmly in his hands, and this is the reason why he has been doubly favored by Feng Moxiu and Jianhou Mansion over the years, but Feng Moxiu is too close to King Zhan, so close that Feng Moxiu himself is simply supported by King Zhan, without King Zhan, there would be no him and Jianhou Mansion today, so the emperor can only make strange moves if he wants to alienate this pair of courtiers.
This trick is a colt.
According to Tianyuan's practice, the eldest son is the natural heir, as the son of the Jianhou Mansion, under normal circumstances, it is impossible for Feng Moxiu to let Feng Zhiping still be the master, but the world is impermanent, Feng Zhiping is not normal, he is a heavenly cripple who can't cultivate internal strength, and he is a "waste" in the eyes of the Wuhou family.
In order for his precious son to sit firmly in the position of "Red Sword Marquis" in the future, he did not hesitate to pull down his old face and ask for the family affairs of King Zhan's mansion, and King Zhan's side married one of the only two remaining concubines to a waste, no matter what he said, he must be a little reluctant in his heart.
The emperor saw the opportunity and agreed to the marriage, but the real purpose was to withdraw from the marriage now.
Feng Zhiping was kidnapped in the inner courtyard of the Jianhou Mansion, saying that Huang Quan did it, but how many years has Huang Quan been destroyed, can the remnants have such a means?
The only one in the entire Tianyuan who has this kind of means is the Heavenly Hearing Supervisor, who knows if the remnants of Huangquan are substituted for the dead ghosts, the real "culprit" is actually the one on the dragon chair, and the whole thing was concocted by him!
Originally, the emperor wanted to mess up the marriage, and then marry the weak little princess to Feng Zhiping, a waste son, the sick ghost and waste complement each other, and he is not afraid that the baby girl will be bullied by her husband's family, so that he can not only separate the feelings between King Zhan and Feng Moxiu, but also show favor to Feng Moxiu, killing three birds with one stone.
As a result, I never expected that Feng Zhiping was rescued by the masters, not only survived, but also cured, the news had already spread, many people knew, how could King Zhan not know?
The original reluctance was gone, King Zhan didn't want to let go, the emperor had no choice but to put pressure on the matter of harmony, and Feng Moxiu figured out the emperor's meaning and cooperated without hesitation, which made King Zhan angry but couldn't get angry, so today's party is for one person, and the emperor's favorite concubine is Feng Zhiping, and the others, including Taishi and Kongxuan's two princes, are all foils.
Figure out the joints, some people are happy and some are worried.
Zhao Wei stood behind his father, happy, worried, angry and depressed.
He is happy that Zhan Qianqiong doesn't have to get married, but he is worried that this matter will greatly affect his reputation, and he is angry that Feng Zhiping deceived him and really gave up his good match to climb the high branches, and the stuffy thing is that Feng Zhiping has no chance even if he gives up Zhan Qianqiong, King Zhan will not approve of him, and his father will not be able to sell his old face for him to climb this impossible family business.
After struggling for a long time, he suddenly remembered the rumor, and his body shook to see Zhan Qianwu.
Many people present, like him, also thought of the rumor, and looked at Zhan Qianwu's expression openly or secretly.
Zhan Qianwu felt something in her heart, and she didn't want to deal with it at first, but some of her eyes were too presumptuous, she couldn't help but raise her head, and her cold gaze stabbed back one by one, and the world was suddenly clear.
She is clean, some people can't be clean, Feng Zhiping is about to vomit blood.
It's good to get out of the marriage, but it shouldn't be said in this tone by Prince Zhan on this occasion and at this time, which is completely out of all the situations he expected.
Stinky old man, you're addicted to pit son, don't you, you really want to kill me?!
You will join forces with King Zhan to shake off the words now, what should Zhan Qianwu do?
In the future, if Shuang'er agrees to Zhan Qianwu to pass through the door, how can you let me go to King Zhan to propose marriage?
I have this face, and King Zhan can't agree with it!
Feng Zhiping looked at Zhan Qianwu opposite, the latter obviously felt it, but he didn't look at him, and after frightening away the inquiring gaze, he lowered his gaze again and looked at his feet, and continued to play deeply.
Feng Zhiping wanted to stare at her until she saw her eyes that were mixed with surprise and guilt, but there were too many people staring at him, and he didn't dare or want to cause more trouble for Yiren, so he could only look away and look at Feng Moxiu hatefully.
Feng Moxiu did not shy away, looking at his son happily, with an expression of "you are still tender", so angry that Feng Zhiping clenched his fists and gritted his teeth.
"I..."
Feng Zhiping wanted to clarify once again that he was undoubtedly a horse, but Sheng Zhongzhang suddenly moved to block him, turned his back and patted him lightly twice.
"Rest easy. ”
Calm down?
Feng Zhiping was overjoyed in his heart, and looked at his great-grandfather with anticipation.
The old man is so shameless, the great-great-grandfather must not be used to it, as long as the great-great-grandfather is willing to help, even if he does not retreat before marriage, it is good to be able to avoid the choice of the horse.
At this time, the smiling tiger young man surnamed Zhuge looked over, arched his hand and said: "Master Sheng, Xiao Kesu asks you to be respectable and upright, the prince of the Red Sword Marquis is the son of the Sword Marquis, and also your great-grandson, Xiao Ke wants to ask, the marriage between the dignified prince and your princess and daughter will be retreated, such a child's play, do you think it is appropriate as an elder?"
In Feng Zhiping's expectant gaze, Sheng Zhongzhang returned the salute and said lightly: "The old man thinks it's very suitable. ”
As soon as this remark came out, the audience was in an uproar.
Everyone in the world knows that Sheng Zhongzhang and Feng Moxiu are mortal enemies, and he will never approve of anything that Feng Moxiu approves of, and he will never approve of it, and vice versa, but today the two of them are in unison, what does this mean?61
This shows that the previous sinister speculation has come true, except for the emperor, no one can persuade Sheng Lao to be stubborn, plus the relationship between Feng Zhiping and him, Sheng Zhongzhang has changed his ordinary and Feng Moxiu's "double sword combination", which together contributed to this situation.
The most shocked person present was Feng Zhiping, who looked at each other in amazement, his expression becoming more and more sad and angry.
Not only the old man, but also the great-great-grandfather, a few old men joined forces to trap people!
Why!
I'm a little kid, and my dad is not my own awesome, so why don't you put your own taels of meat on the fire!
The young man surnamed Zhuge was stunned, stared at Sheng Zhongzhang's expression and studied it for a long time, then looked at You Wanli, King Zhan and Feng Moxiu, gradually pondered it, and nodded slowly.
"I see, you..."
"Needless to say, it's useless to say more!" Chao Heming interrupted with a wave of his hand, and looked at Feng Zhiping with a sneer, "What's the harm of having one more of you, it's useless to have more people! There is only one winner of the choice of horses, and that is me, no one else! If you want to get in the way, you can try, remind you, my Taishi martial arts is not like you Tianyuan, this palace is in the sword mountain and the sea of fire to practice this ability, this palace does not leave a hand in the dictionary, you are not afraid of death, you come!"
Threat!
Naked|Naked, Naked Threat!
Feng Zhiping quickly glanced at a few "old men", turned his heart sideways, piled up his face full of fear, and waved his hand in a panic: "No, no, I don't participate, I don't want to be a colt!"
Bah!
Many people present took a sip, not afraid of being heard at all, with a look of disdain.
I have long heard that the prince of Jianhou is a mud that can't support the wall, but when I saw it today, it was better than mud.
"Oh, you said you didn't want to be a colt?"
You Wanli suddenly spoke, and the venue was instantly quiet.
He looked at Feng Zhiping with a smile, and that smile was cold.
"Why are you here today?"
Feng Zhiping swallowed his saliva, opened his mouth to answer, but heard Sheng Zhongzhang cough lightly, reacted and hurriedly knelt down, and saluted and said: "Back to Your Majesty, the grass people were called by their father, and they didn't know what to do today before they came.
"I see. You Wanli nodded, "What I said is true, since that's the case, why don't you take advantage of the situation and participate in this selection of horses?" King Zhan has personally testified that you have no marriage contract, but you still refrain in every possible way, do you look down on me Yuehuang, or look down on me?"
Feng Zhiping almost wanted to vomit blood, his head was covered with cold sweat, and he kowtowed again and again like pounding garlic.
"The grass people don't dare, how dare the grass people! It's really that the grass people don't have a little ink and martial arts, even if they participate, they have no chance of winning, and they will be embarrassed, the grass people have self-knowledge, in order to protect my Sword Marquis Mansion and protect my Tianyuan face, the grass people resolutely refused, not to underestimate you and His Royal Highness Yuehuang!"
"You haven't even tried, how do you know you're going to lose, and besides, when did I say that the ultimate winner is the colt?"
As soon as this remark came out, many people in the field changed color.
The "foils" who thought they had no chance rekindled a glimmer of hope, and Chao Heming, who was arrogant, had an ugly face, he didn't expect Emperor Yuan to be so cunning.
Don't forget that the real purpose of this selection is to form an alliance between the two countries, and peace is the proof of the alliance.
Kong Xuanren secretly breathed a sigh of relief, it doesn't matter whether she marries a princess or not, the point is not to let Taishi people succeed, as long as Yuehuang doesn't marry Chao Heming, she has no opinion on marrying a pig and marrying a dog Kong Xuan.
You Wanli ignored Chao Heming's inquiring gaze, looked at Feng Zhiping for a moment, and said lightly: "Yuehuang is my youngest daughter, and she is my most distressed treasure, I have found the best man in the world for her to choose, who she wants to marry is up to her to choose, I don't interfere, my Yuehuang must marry the person she wants to marry." The competition between the horses is just a process to show your talents, and the result of the competition is not the final result, in the final analysis, it is up to Yuehuang to choose herself. I've made it all clear, and now I'm asking you again, do you really want to quit?"
"I..."
Feng Zhiping hesitated, his scalp was numb, and his brain was in a mess.
To say yes is to look down on the emperor and princess, and it is disrespectful.
The emperors of other people have said so openly, and their words are full of praise for themselves, and they still want to refuse, isn't it disrespectful?
But to say no, he is too disobedient to say it.
He has enough troubles, what happened just now has completely disrupted his plan, Zhan Qianwu doesn't know how to remedy it, and if he wades into the troubled waters of the horse again, then Zhan Qianwu will really say goodbye to him, and from then on, his reputation will be completely stinky, and the names of "disliking the poor and loving the rich" and "climbing the dragon and attaching the phoenix" must be indispensable, and he was no less than the second Meng Yuqing at that time.
Refuse?
Submissive?
Feng Zhiping turned his head slightly and looked at Zhan Qianwu with his spare eyes.
The girl still kept her head down, and did not look at him, as if she had heard nothing, as if what had happened had nothing to do with her.
Grandma's man is going to be forced to death, and you are still like a person who has nothing to do, with no heart or heart!
Feng Zhiping retracted his gaze hatefully, pondered it repeatedly in his heart, gritted his teeth when the emperor showed an impatient look, knelt straight and kowtowed heavily.
"Your Majesty raises love, and the grass people are very fortunate, but the grass people have their hearts, and they can't bear it. Please forgive your Majesty for the sin of disrespect to the grass people, grass people, refuse!"
