Chapter 842 Breaking into the Dragon City
A month later, news finally came from Prince Shun. The Northern Jin court sent envoys to Longcheng to discuss the marriage.
"Can it be a trap?" Wei Tian said with some concern.
Longcheng is located at the southernmost point of the Northern Jin Dynasty, guarding Zhennan Pass, which is the location of the garrison in the border south. Most of the people in the city are military households. When they arrive here, they will fall into the siege of the Northern Jin Dynasty. If it is a trap, they will never escape.
"I don't think so." Liu Yunxiang thought for a while, and then said, "If the marriage is done, it will be done. If it is not done, it will always be negotiated. Beijin will not want to have conflicts with Darong now. Even if Prince Shun wants to kill me, he will not dare to disobey the court. If a disaster occurs, he will not be able to bear it."
Qin Feishi nodded in agreement, "And Prince Shun is not a despicable person."
Wei Tian was still worried and wanted to send a team of personal soldiers to protect Liu Yunxiang.
"If there is really danger, no matter how many personal soldiers there are, it will be useless. King Qing and I will take Zijin and Feng Zheng with us, and we will go there four of us."
There was no delay. The next day, the four of them set out to Longcheng. After taking it, they didn't go far. The tenth princess caught up with her and insisted on following her. It was useless to persuade her, so she had to take her with her.
After coming out of Zhennan Pass, the Tenth Princess turned around and looked at the pass and suddenly asked, "The Ninth Princess is leaving here to get married, right?"
When talking about the Ninth Princess, Liu Yunxiang felt sad, "Yes, she was standing on the city tower in a wedding dress that day. Whenever she remembered that scene, it was still so vivid."
The Ninth Princess at that time was so beautiful that the world was faded.
Although she knew that stepping out of here was a foreign land, and even though she knew that this marriage would never be restored, she had no regrets or regrets.
In the end, she died in Yunjing Lake, in such a tragic way. Darong lost her and Beijin harmed her. The marriage was a woman's sacrifice, but what she received was not necessarily worth it.
"My mother told me about the Ninth Princess, and she said she was very glad to escape from the palace with me, but unfortunately we couldn't escape." Speaking of this, the Tenth Princess smiled and shrugged again, "But I'm not afraid. I know how to kung fu, so no one can hurt me."
Liu Yunxiang looked at Princess Ten and felt sad, "If you refuse, let your seventh brother think of a solution."
The marriage was decided by the emperor and was related to the alliance between the two countries. If the ten princess refused, it would indeed make Yan Mu feel embarrassed, but she really couldn't bear to let such a good girl become a victim.
"Oh, Seventh Sister, I'm really not afraid. If the dog emperor dares to bully me, I'll beat him up!" As he said that, the Tenth Princess lit up her fists.
Liu Yunxiang burst out laughing, but remembered it. Ruobeijin agreed to marry her. The tenth princess was Leng Yuxian. This person is indeed a bit cold-blooded, but not despicable and will not bully a girl.
Unless this woman deceives her, she will end up like Princess Ying.
"He, you will know after you contact him."
He is not a dirty villain, and of course he is not a kind person. But he may not be the same in the eyes of others.
To go to Longcheng, you must first pass through Zhennan Pass, where Prince Shun welcomed him. They did not go to Longcheng directly. Prince Shun took them to the military camp stationed here first, watching them train troops, the fortifications they made, and the military pay they stored.
"Princess, Bei Jinruo and Darong fight, how likely do you have to win?" Prince Shun said sarcastically.
The Northern Jin Dynasty had strong soldiers and strong horses. Since Leng Yuxian ascended the throne, he has repeatedly increased his military strength. However, Darong has been in trouble with internal and external troubles, and his military strength has gradually weakened. If it were just a match between the North Jin Dynasty and the North of Darong Town, he could win or lose 50 points, but if the whole country is used to fight, Darong is definitely not a match between the Northern Jin Dynasty. In fact, Darong can't even beat the Western Yue at present.
Prince Shun walked around while taking her and Qin Fei, so that they could first slash their confidence and let them consciously lower their posture during negotiations.
Liu Yunxiang's thoughts changed and probably guessed that the Beijin might have to put forward excessive conditions in this negotiation.
It was dark and finally arrived at the inn in Longcheng.
The postmaster held a banquet, but Liu Yunxiang did not attend on the grounds of being exhausted, and Qin Feishi was invited alone.
Liu Yunxiang is really tired. After all, she is four months pregnant. With the drive these few days, she wants to lie down and rest and have a good sleep.
Zi Jin fed hot water, served Liu Yunxiang to take a shower, and then took a short rest after a little supper.
The place to discuss was set up in the front hall of the inn. The next morning, Liu Yunxiang was dressed up. As soon as he walked out of the door, news came from there, saying that he would talk about it tomorrow.
"Is something wrong?" Liu Yunxiang asked.
The postmaster laughed dryly, "Last night's banquet, King Qing drank all our envoys and was not awake yet."
Liu Yunxiang twitched the corners of her mouth. Qin Fei had a good alcohol tolerance, but he didn't drink the six or seven envoys alone. He probably used some tricks. Since that was the case, the two sides would give up today.
"Let's go for a walk on the street." Liu Yunxiang said, he was out anyway.
Zi Jin nodded quickly, and the Tenth Princess was going to go too, so Feng Zheng became lazy, "What's the point of visiting?"
Zi Jin went up and kicked him, "You haven't been to Beijin, have you?"
"oh."
“Beijin has a lot of delicious food and fun.”
“Not interested.”
"Let's go, I'll invite you to eat their mutton soup buns, it's so delicious." Zijin pulled Feng Zheng up as he said that.
Feng Zhengyuan refused, but when he saw Zijin holding his hand, his face turned red, and then his feet unconsciously followed.
Liu Yunxiang smiled and then walked out with the Tenth Princess.
"Sister-in-law Qi has been to Beijin?"
"Well, I've been here for two years, to save your seventh brother."
Liu Yunxiang talked about what happened before and told Princess Ten that Yan Mu came to Beijin as a hostage, and when she found him, she was like a trapped beast and struggling. Later, she cooperated with the King of England to help the King of England ascend the throne, and finally broke free from the cage and left Beijin.
Speaking of that, Liu Yunxiang felt it was very magical, and they actually escaped.
There is no way out when you are at the end of your life, and there is another village with dark willows and flowers.
"So the Northern Jin Emperor is grateful to you for helping him at that time, so he named you the eldest princess?"
"Well, we are indeed friends in distress."
"Then he is still a person who keeps his promises."
"People, especially people like him, are often very complicated. With my friendship, I dare not say that I really understand him."
Zi Jin had found the bun shop and asked Feng Zheng to taste it as if he was offering treasures.
The Tenth Princess stumbling on Liu Yunxiang's arm, "Seventh Sister-in-law, it seems that someone is following us."
Liu Yunxiang responded calmly, "Don't panic, this is Longcheng, the territory of Beijin, and you must have a few pairs of eyes."
"Let's go back to the station early."
"Um."
After buying buns, they walked around for a while, and then they went back to the inn. There was nothing to do for a day and when they were about to rest at night, the Tenth Princess was still worried and went to Liu Yunxiang's courtyard in the dark.
