At dusk.
Xiao Chonghua knelt on the cold floor of the imperial study: "Father, I do not agree to the marriage!"
Emperor Jingxuan has been very angry recently, and his temper is a little unbearable: "Is it your turn to agree to what I do? Don't think that you can ignore me because you have accomplished the task of wiping out the White Lotus Sect? I am the emperor! Everything I do is...
For the sake of the country, the country, and the common people!"
"Then do you have to sacrifice your daughter?"
Xiao Chonghua was not as excited as him, but the sadness in his eyes was like a sharp sword piercing Emperor Jingxuan's organs.
Emperor Jingxuan said angrily: "This is her mission as a princess! Besides, the Western Jin Dynasty is a powerful country, why would she be wronged by marrying to the Western Jin Dynasty?"
The two of them did not mention at all which princess they were marrying, but they already knew each other well.
In terms of appearance, Princess Hui'an is undoubtedly the most beautiful woman in the royal family.
Princess Jingning's beauty is too mediocre. It is true that if the Zhou Dynasty was willing to give away the destiny of a country, the Western Jin Dynasty would not mind that Princess Jingning's beauty is not enough.
But was Emperor Xuan Jing willing to bear it?
Xiao Chonghua looked straight into Emperor Jing Xuan's eyes: "Then I dare to ask my father, who do you want Hui'an to marry? Is it the old emperor of the Western Jin Dynasty, or the eldest prince of the Western Jin Dynasty who already has a concubine? It will definitely not be given to the Western Jin Dynasty.
Princess, I have never heard that the princess likes women."
Listen, what nonsense did this kid say?
Emperor Jingxuan said angrily: "This is none of your business."
Xiao Chonghua said: "Hui'an is Erchen's sister."
Emperor Jingxuan was furious: "I only remember that she is your sister, but you also remember that I am your father!"
Xiao Chonghua said: "Hui'an has done nothing wrong."
Emperor Jingxuan was even more angry. Why was this son so unrighteous?
The son who was once the most obedient and the best at making him happy is now increasingly good at poking his lungs!
Emperor Jingxuan looked at Xiao Chonghua with a heavy look: "You imply that I am wrong? Do you know that Bei Yan's marriage team is already on the way to the Western Jin Dynasty. Once Bei Yan marries the Western Jin Dynasty, I, the Zhou Dynasty, will be attacked from both sides!"
Xiao Chonghua said calmly: "Then my father should also send a smart person over. Hui'an is so stupid that he can't blow the pillow wind, nor can he provoke the relationship between Beiyan and the Western Jin Dynasty."
"You——" Emperor Jingxuan gritted his teeth, "did you say that about your sister?"
Could he not know that his daughter is stupid?
He didn't just send Hui'an to the Western Jin Dynasty.
There are many powerful counselors in Hui'an's dowry group. Hui'an will also be surrounded by maids with both sexual and artistic skills. Dazhou will also take the opportunity to deploy a group of secret guards and agents into the Western Jin Dynasty capital.
Hui'an just needs to make a vase quietly.
Xiao Chonghua said sternly: "Father, the White Lotus Sect has been eliminated, and there are no internal worries. I, the Great Zhou Dynasty, can fully deal with foreign aggression."
Emperor Jingxuan said coldly: "Is her life more important, or the lives of the army officers and the common people? You still want to be the emperor, what do you think the emperor is? Let alone a princess, even if you sacrifice a prince, as long as
If I can avoid war, I will not hesitate!"
Coming out of the imperial study room, Xiao Chonghua saw Jing Yi who had been waiting for a long time.
"Jing Yi."
He spoke softly.
Jing Yi stepped forward: "What did your Majesty say?"
Xiao Chonghua said calmly: "He has made up his mind and wants to send Hui'an to get married."
Jing Yi's handsome little brow furrowed.
Although he didn't have deep feelings for this cousin, he didn't want her to marry far away in the Western Jin Dynasty.
The Western Jin Dynasty and the Great Zhou Dynasty once kept pace with each other, but with the continuous wars in the Great Zhou Dynasty, the treasury was depleted and the national power was weakened, and it was no longer as powerful as the Western Jin Dynasty.
If you marry Hui'an, it is obvious that you will be teased by others.
Xiao Chonghua said coldly: "Now there is only one way to stop my father. Find the imperial edict that Mo Guiyuan said. Use it as a threat to force my father to take back his life."
Mentioning this, a strange look flashed across Jing Yi's handsome face: "But, we searched all over the peach forest and couldn't find the imperial edict. Could it be that the imperial edict doesn't exist at all and Mo Guiyuan was just trying to scare us?"
"No, I am sure there is an imperial edict."
Xiao Chonghua believed in his own judgment.
Jing Yi asked: "Is there another place we haven't found?"
The peach forest is so big, it's not impossible.
Maybe the imperial edict is not in Taolin at all... Xiao Chonghua said thoughtfully, "Have you caught Zhang Feng next to Mo Guiyuan?"
Jing Yi shook his head: "No, let him escape. Could it be that he took the imperial edict away?"
Xiao Chonghua said solemnly: "We must find this person, do it in private, and don't alert others."
Jing Yi responded: "I understand, cousin."
In Su Xiaoxiao's boudoir in the Protector's Mansion, Princess Hui'an was unusually quiet. She didn't cry or make a fuss, nor did she complain about others. She was as calm as a different person.
Others always say she is stupid, but actually she is not stupid.
In the past, she was able to dominate in the palace because her father supported her.
Now, the man who personally sent her to the point of no return was his father.
Her support is gone, and no one will spoil her no matter how troublesome she is.
Princess Jingning gave her a rare word of comfort: "Don't be downcast. I haven't told the world yet. Maybe my father has changed his mind."
"Two princesses, it's getting late, it's time to return to the palace."
Outside the door, the little eunuch urged.
"Let's go." Princess Jingning said.
Princess Hui'an stood up glumly and left the house with her.
"Jingning, can you tell your father and let me set off later?"
Princess Jingning asked understandingly: "After Miss Qin's wedding?"
Princess Hui'an nodded slowly: "I want to send my little follower to get married, so that Brother Ting will know that she is the person I protect, and he is not allowed to bully her! In fact, marrying to the Western Jin Dynasty is not completely useless. She loves to cause trouble so much.
, half of the people in the capital have been offended by her, and when I become the favored concubine of the king of the Western Jin Dynasty, no one will dare to seek revenge from her."
"She..." Princess Jingning wanted to say that since she was so capable, it would be better to seek revenge on others.
Also, you became the favorite concubine of the old emperor of the Western Jin Dynasty just to protect your little follower?
Princess Jingning said softly: "I understand, go back to the palace."
"Princess Hui'an." Su Xiaoxiao chased her out.
"What are you doing?" Princess Hui'an wiped away her tears and turned back, looking at her arrogantly.
Su Xiaoxiao looked at her steadily: "You won't get married."
Royal study room.
Just after Xiao Chonghua left, Prime Minister Guo came to see him again.
Emperor Jingxuan left him alone for a while before having someone call him in.
"It's so late, why did Guo Aiqing come to the palace?"
Prime Minister Guo raised his hands and saluted: "Your Majesty, I am here for the sake of marriage."
Emperor Jingxuan said calmly: "You also want to persuade me not to send the princess to get married?"
Prime Minister Guo said sincerely: "No, I support your majesty's decision. With the current national strength of our country, we really need to recuperate and recuperate. The marriage can bring several years of peace. The people of the world will be grateful to your majesty for your kindness."
Emperor Jingxuan sighed: "Guo Aiqing still understands my difficulties."
Prime Minister Guo continued: "But it is really not what I want for Your Majesty to lose his beloved daughter."
When Emperor Jingxuan heard this, he paused and finally looked at him seriously: "Oh?"
Prime Minister Guo said: "I am willing to let my granddaughter Lingxi go and get married instead of the princess!"
Is it so early?
