Chapter 49 The Three Princes of Liang Kingdom
Although I have never cared about these things, neither do the people in my family. But to say this to Your Highness even before my father was buried for seven days, I want Ning Yu to bear the name of unfilial piety."
"I know it, I know it."
Seeing that Ye Ningyu's tone was a little serious, King Yong said hurriedly, "It takes time to discuss with the elders. I won't force you. Don't be angry, Ayu, I just want to marry you home."
Ye Ningyu didn't want to continue this topic, so she walked towards the boat docked by the lake. The boatman was already waiting here. When Qinglian saw the eldest girl getting on the boat, she made a move to follow, but she was stopped by King Yong's entourage again.
Qinglian was so anxious, she thought that the eldest girl was injured, and she had to stay close to take care of her. The boat had already been rowed out of the shore. This boat was not a boat used by officials and ladies to travel, it was just a small boat not much bigger than a fishing boat.
It's enough to accommodate about five or six people. King Yong knew that Ye Ningyu didn't like ostentation, and the complicated paintings made her feel restrained. Although Ye Xiaozhou was simple, it was clean and elegant inside. There was a velvet white fox fur blanket on the seats.
There was a warm hand stove. Behind the seat, there was an open umbrella to protect Ye Ningyu from the sun. On the table in the middle of the seat, there was a pot of boiling tea, and a clear bottle on the side.
There were a few freshly picked flowers and a box of incense. I have to say that such a simple and elegant boat matched Ye Ningyu's temperament very well today. King Yong still had a way of guessing the girl's thoughts. It's just that
He didn't know that Ye Ningyu was different from ordinary girls. Once a person has been desperate, he will no longer have hope for anything. If it were in the previous life, Ye Ningyu might have been moved by King Yong's carefulness. But now, she
Heart as solid as stone. Ye Ningyu looked at the calm lake and said lightly, "There are beautiful mountains and rivers, and since there is already the fragrance of flowers, this incense seems superfluous."
"Then I will destroy it."
After King Yong said that, he quickly put out the incense and cut off the smoke. "Now that the prince has been deposed, what are your plans?"
"Ah Yu knows what my king's plans are. My father has four sons, and I am the least useful. Ah Yu has wronged you by marrying me."
Ye Ningyu ignored Prince Yong's belittlement and asked, "Did His Highness think carefully about what I said that day?"
King Yong was overjoyed, but his face still looked confused and guilty. "Which sentence did Ayu say?"
"Your Highness knows that I do not want the crown prince to ascend the throne. If Your Highness is interested in that supreme position, I am willing to help His Highness."
"Ayu, this... I have never thought about it like this, and I don't dare to think about it."
Ye Ningyu slightly raised the corners of her lips and showed her first smile today. "His Highness didn't dare to think about it before, but now that I'm here, His Highness can think about it."
King Yong's heartbeat quickened. Right now, the fight for the throne was not his own. It was Ye Ningyu who proposed it. She was willing to help him win the throne, and he couldn't refuse. She was the ambitious counselor, but he was still the loyal one.
Father, a simple prince who loves and respects his brother. What King Yong wants is such a beginning. From then on, Ye Ningyu was willing to plan for him for his own sake and her own. "Ayu, what do you think of me?
Can the king really compete for the position of crown prince?"
Ye Ningyu's expression became serious. "The prince is incompetent and the king is weak, let alone becoming the king. Your Highness, do you think there is anyone in the Great Yu Kingdom who is more suitable than Your Highness?"
King Yong straightened his back and looked at the open lake in front of him. He suddenly felt that the world was vast and the future was infinitely bright. "Since Ah Yu said so, I will give it a try. Whatever Ah Yu wants me to do, I will do it."
do what."
King Yong stretched out his hand to hold Ye Ningyu's hand holding the cup. Ye Ningyu suddenly frowned and covered her heart with her hand. King Yong's eyes changed, "Does the wound hurt again?"
Ye Ningyu shook his head, "No problem."
"Have you got any medicine?"
King Yong looked concerned. "There is it on the carriage. I just took medicine when I came here."
King Yong then nodded with relief, then thought of something, picked up the tea cup and sighed slightly. "Is there anything troublesome, Your Highness?"
King Yong put down his tea cup and said, "Ayu must have heard about the Liang delegation coming to Dadu a few days ago."
Ye Ningyu nodded and showed a smile. "I heard that His Highness was receiving the Liang State delegation, and His Majesty greatly praised His Highness for what he did."
King Yong waved his hand, "You don't know, I took them all around this place in this month. There is still more than a month before my father's birthday, so we can't leave them all in the post house..." He said for
This issue has been bothering me for many days, and the staff in the government have also put forward many ideas. Some people have suggested watching theater, singing and dancing, and some people have suggested taking the envoys to the cities around Dadu to learn about the customs. Some people have also suggested holding a poetry meeting.
Let the Liang State envoy see the style of Yu State students. There are many ideas, but it seems that the Liang State envoy is not very interested. "Who is the envoy coming this time?"
After hearing this, Ye Ningyu asked after thinking for a moment, "The third prince of the Liang Kingdom."
Ye Ningyu's hand holding the teacup paused for a moment before speaking slowly. "What are the hobbies of this third prince?"
Ye Ningyu actually knew this person. She had dealt with him in her previous life. The Liang State was a superior state. Regarding Yu State's diplomatic strategy, the Liang Dynasty was divided into two factions. One faction advocated war, and the other advocated peace.
The third prince belongs to the Zhuhe faction. In the last life, he and King Liang reached an agreement: the third prince helped King Yong ascend the throne, while King Yong promised to benefit the Liang Kingdom. In essence, what King Yong and the prince used was
The same method. This can explain why the special envoy of the Liang Kingdom came before the prince returned to the capital this time, because the people who dealt with the prince before were Liang people from the main war faction. Ye Ningyu had just figured this out.
"He..." King Yong seemed to be recalling what he had learned about the characteristics of the third prince of the Liang Kingdom. "He has no real power in the Liang Kingdom. He is an idle prince. He is said to be greedy for wine and sex, and is fond of antiques on weekdays."
Ye Ningyu raised her brows slightly, "Has Your Highness ever heard of the allusion about being reluctant to miss Shu?"
King Yong was startled, "You..." King Yong was also a smart man and seemed to have guessed the meaning of Ye Ning's words. "Actually, it's very simple. Whatever the third prince likes, just give him whatever he likes. An idle prince, let alone Yue Yu
, you can stay for a whole year.”
King Yong did not expect that Ye Ningyu would give him such a simple and crude trick. He understood what Ye Ningyu meant. If the third prince likes wine and sex, he should give him wine and sex. Needless to say, the fine wines of the Yu Kingdom, but this sex..."
I heard that in several elegant residences in Dadu, the girls are all outstanding and talented, so there is no need for Your Highness to worry about finding a suitable person."
King Yong was stunned again. If it were the girl next to him who would avoid him, he would not dare to say these words. But Ye Ningyu is different from ordinary women, she dares to say anything. "Ahem..." King Yong coughed a few times.
The voice seemed to be explaining, "I...I have never been to those places."
Ye Ningyu wiped the tip of his nose with a handkerchief and did not answer. "What do you think of this place, Your Highness?"
King Yong was already feeling refreshed at this moment, and he immediately said, "It's very good."
