Chapter 214 You can't rely on your princess for a lifetime
After some advice from Zhou Ya, Wu Tian finally understood.
Emotions themselves have become the victim of the prince's emotional growth. What a shame.
While lifting the iron, he shook his head and sighed,
"Well, it seems that our prince is worse than a child when it comes to relationships."
Wu Tian only dared to say this secretly and did not dare to say it too loudly.
After all, men who are in love are not emotionally stable. If the prince hears it, Wu Tian will not want his iron arms.
Just as Wu Tian and Zhou Ya were in the corner of the yard, whispering about a certain prince who was worried about gains and losses for love, a woman outside the yard shouted loudly,
"Excuse me, does Prince Xiao Li live here?"
Wu Tian and Zhou Ya looked at each other. Wu Tian was lifting the iron. He still had 9,000 more times left to lift, so Zhou Ya could only walk out of the yard.
Zhou Ya was heard standing outside the yard and asked roughly:
"Who is making such a noise here? Are they dying?"
Yesterday was the official entry of the Shence Army into this market town.
Although Li Yunqing had brought people to live in secretly before this, no one in the market town knew about it before.
Therefore, since yesterday, everyone in the small market town knew that there was a King Xiao Li living in their market town, and there was also a County Master Hou Pan.
The person who came was none other than the mother-in-law of County Lord Hou Pan.
When the woman saw Zhou Ya, a trace of contempt flashed in her eyes. She stood up straight, raised her chin, and said:
"Our county master knows that Uncle Wang Li lives here, so he specially asked me to come here to express his gratitude to the prince. Where is the prince?"
Zhou Ya yelled angrily and pulled out the knife.
"How outrageous! The prince is the one in charge of the army. Are you a spy sent by some force? How dare you ask about the prince's whereabouts!"
The moment the sharp blade was pulled out of the scabbard, Mommy was so frightened that she staggered back and fell to the ground.
She looked at Zhou Ya standing tall in front of her with a pale face, feeling like she was an iron man in front of her. Compared with ordinary soldiers, Zhou Ya was so different.
No, in fact, all Shence armies are different from other royal armies.
Because Zhou Ya had followed Princess Xiao Li and King Xiao Li for a long time, he also used the Shence Army's set of standards to strictly demand himself.
My mother had never seen such ferocious soldiers. She stumbled back to the best residence in the market town, found the county master Hou Pan, and shouted,
"It's incredible, County Lord. This old slave almost died tragically at the hands of King Xiao Li. This man, this man is so cruel."
County Lord Hou Pan was holding a round fan, leaning against the beauty sitting on the second floor of the pavilion and looking into the distance. Hearing this, he frowned and looked at his mother,
"What's wrong with Uncle Wang? Doesn't he want to see you?"
"Oh, County Lord, let's not provoke that murderous god."
Mother told County Lord Hou Pan that Zhou Ya had drawn the knife to scare her, and then looked at County Lord Hou Pan with a worried expression.
"My poor County Lord, tell me, what should we do next?"
Yesterday, they saved a life. After they hurriedly entered the market town, they were arranged by the people in the market town to live in the best place.
But all this is temporary. Hundreds of people from Prince Hou's palace were separated on the way to escape, some died of illness, and some were hacked to death by the palace soldiers who didn't know the truth. Now only Hou Pan is left.
There is only one county owner.
Along with a nanny and a groom.
County Princess Hou Pan was very frail. She tilted her head with a melancholy look and looked into the distance, feeling sorry for herself.
"What else can I do now? Uncle Wang also refuses to pay attention to me. Most of the palace's property was stolen by the soldiers when they were on the road. Now that I am living here, it is really that the sky is not responding and the earth is not working.
.”
Originally, County Lord Hou Pan wanted to join Prince Xiao Li for the sake of being in the same clan.
After all, in terms of seniority, Prince Xiao Li is considered her uncle.
But the mother-in-law was scared away by King Xiao Li's soldiers without even seeing him. Then, who should she seek refuge with as a woman in troubled times, so that she can settle down?
Regarding his future, County Master Hou Pan only felt confused and desperate.
Her mother was also worried about her,
"Our life in the Prince's Mansion was so good before. Although it is not as luxurious as Prince Ruan's Mansion, our Prince Hou's Mansion is also a noble family with no worries about food and clothing. Now, oh, County Lord, what do you think we should do?"
"You ask me, how do I know?"
Hou Pan also had no idea. He and his mother were staying on the second floor worrying when they heard the groom at the bottom of the yard say:
"County Lord, Madam Yao is here."
"Ms. Yao?"
Mother looked like her nostrils were turned upward,
"Who is that? Now, what kind of cats and dogs are brave enough to come to see the people of our Prince Hou's Mansion?"
Although Hou Pan is the only orphan left in Prince Hou's mansion, her identity lies here. Hou Pan is the daughter of a clan, and her body is filled with royal blood. No matter how homeless she is, she will not get mixed up with a commoner woman.
The groom replied:
"It's said that Madam Yao, the commander of this town, arranged our residence."
Upon hearing this, Mother looked at Hou Pan and said with a smile:
"County Lord, what do you think? After all, she is the commander's wife, so it's not good to see her."
County Lord Hou Pan nodded without any idea and walked down from the attic with his mother's support.
Because the whole small building is quite large, but only three people live in it, the master and servants of the county master Hou Pan, so the groom acted as a multi-role. After returning the message to the county master, he went to open the door for Mrs. Yao.
Mrs. Yao was quite nervous. It was her first time to meet such a big shot as the county magistrate. Her hands holding the child were shaking.
When she entered the courtyard and saw Hou Pan being helped out, Mrs. Yao didn't know what to do, so she just knelt down on the ground.
"County Lord, a civilian woman has met the County Lord."
"Get up."
Hou Pan raised his hand weakly, covered his lower lip with the silk handkerchief between his fingers, coughed weakly, and ordered the groom to show Lady Yao a seat in the main room.
"I don't see many outsiders. Normally, these favors are handled by the palace's servants, so I didn't thank Madam Yao yesterday. It was really hard for Madam Yao to arrange such a good place for me."
After sitting down, Hou Pan coughed lightly and began to speak with a slight breath.
The tight little brows, the delicate body, and the nobility in every gesture made Madam Yao feel both distressed and happy at the same time.
She held the iron head in her arms and said very grandly:
"No matter how big the deal is, it doesn't matter. From now on, if the county master needs anything, he can just talk to the women."
After a pause, she looked at Hou Pan with distressed eyes and asked:
"Princess, are you not feeling well? Have you seen a doctor?"
These words seemed to touch on Hou Pan's pain point, and the expression on her face became more melancholy, and I felt even more pity for her.
Before she could speak, Mu Ma, who was standing next to Hou Pan, complained:
"Our county master is already weak. In recent years, the world has been bad, and Sun Guogong has caused chaos everywhere. The county master lives a homeless and frightened life every day. Doesn't this mean he is ill? Alas, our county master is also a miserable person.
Woolen cloth."
After hearing this, Lady Yao felt even more pity for Hou Pan.
"This disease cannot be delayed. We still need to find a doctor to take a look. Although our town is small, there are many good doctors. Otherwise, you can also ask the military doctor of King Xiao Li. I heard that the military doctor of Shence Army can
They are all disciples of Tianyugu."
"Let's forget it. This little Prince Li is so vicious and doesn't care about the family ties at all."
Mother chattered, and repeated what she had said to Hou Pan before, to Mrs. Yao again, and the more she spoke, the more her words became biased towards her.
In Mrs. Yao's ears, it turned out that Li Yunqing was unkind, ignored blood and family ties, and refused to save anyone.
Mrs. Yao angrily echoed her mother,
"I thought this little Prince Li was a good man at first, but I didn't expect him to be so hard-hearted. My niece is even sick, and I don't know how to help him in troubled times. Alas, people's hearts are really as iron as iron."
"Isn't that right?"
Mother and Mrs. Yao were talking enthusiastically. Hou Pan, who was sitting in the chair, lowered his head and said nothing, with a look of weakness on his face.
After Mrs. Yao went back angrily, she went to Hua Jin to chat with her iron head in her arms.
Anyway, she has nothing to do all day long, except taking care of the children and taking care of the Yao family's iron shop.
Nowadays, all the men in the Yao family's iron shop are working on blacksmithing, and Hua Jin has found someone to do all the chores, so Mrs. Yao is completely free.
So every day I would hold my baby and walk around here or there.
She especially likes to go to Hua Jin for gossip, because Hua Jin often does her own thing and doesn't respond much to Lady Yao.
So Mrs. Yao started talking to Hua Jin about the shortcomings of the family in the east and the west, as if she were looking for a tree hole, telling Hua Jin everything.
At this time, Hua Jin was sitting in the yard, playing with the iron piece in her hand, listening to Mrs. Yao talking about how unkind Li Yunqing was.
Hua Jin couldn't help it anymore and said:
"You can't say that about this matter. The clan is different from what you think. Especially the royal affairs are very complicated and not what you think."
"The emperor also has several poor relatives, why is it different?"
Lady Yao didn’t quite understand that her birth limited her thinking.
"Mother-in-law, I'm not saying that the clan members are all blood relatives. It is necessary to help each other. Otherwise, in such a cannibalistic world, without the help of the clan, you will be bullied to death by others."
The Yao family also had a clan, but the people in the clan were just like the Hou Wangfu, either getting separated on the road of wandering, or died on the road.
In the end, the only ones who came here were the Yao Jun lineage.
But there is only one branch, and including the assistants, there are about twenty people.
Hua Jin's eyes moved from the iron block at her fingertips to Madam Yao's face.
"That's a folk clan. It's true that folk clans help each other, but the royal family can eat people."
At first, Hua Jin didn't know much about the royal family. She didn't understand the difference between the royal family and ordinary clans.
However, after following Li Yunqing and being his royal wife for so long, she gradually realized that the royal family was so big that she could not even count how many people there were in the clan.
The current emperor has dozens of princes and princesses. Some of the princes have been crowned kings, some have not been crowned kings. Those who have been crowned kings have several princes, and each prince has several princes.
There is a wall between the prince and the prince. Even those who are far apart in age may not necessarily know each other.
Because princes have to leave the palace when they reach old age, those who are crowned kings have their own separate residences, and those who have fiefs go to the fiefs early to enjoy it. Before going to the fiefdoms, the emperor's concubines were still giving birth to the prince.
This is still based on the fact that Li Yunqing's lineage was passed down alone for several generations, and the throne was finally stolen.
If every generation of emperors behaves like this, it is estimated that the territory of Tianjing Kingdom is not enough to be crowned king.
So having said that, how can the royal family help each other? The royal family only cares about interests. When they agree with their interests, they are a family. When they don't agree with their interests, they will fight harder than anyone else.
"The county master Hou Pan is just a county master. Her mother-in-law wants to see King Xiao Li, and she is not qualified to do so. Everything must be viewed from the overall situation. King Xiao Li has a lot of troops, and any servant can see him.
How many people does he meet in a day? Among these people, who can guarantee that they will not assassinate him? After all, he is so powerful and there are many people who want his life, especially members of the royal family."
"The mother-in-law of County Master Hou Pan said that King Xiao Li's lackey used a knife to scare her. First of all, I strongly disagree with the word 'running dog'. He is a world-class soldier who protects his family and country, bravely kills the enemy, and saves you from fire and water."
, called ‘running dogs’? Then what are you who were rescued?”
It was rare for Hua Jin to talk so much, so she explained it to Mrs. Yao sharply, and then said:
"Although King Xiaoli is fierce, he is not bad in nature. Compared with many fiefdom lords, he is responsible for the people in his fiefdom. He resisted the Beirong and guarded the land of Tianjing Kingdom conscientiously. You guys really
You cannot slander King Xiao Li just based on a few unfair words between women."
Mrs. Yao was so ashamed by what she said, she smiled hard and said,
"Well, as a woman who has never seen the world, I don't know such a big truth."
"So don't follow what others say. You have to have your own judgment. In my opinion, a slave who can stir up trouble will definitely disturb the family. You should stay away from such people."
Hua Jin warned Mrs. Yao, but Mrs. Yao was too confused to understand what Hua Jin said.
Just as Mrs. Yao left, a tall figure appeared behind Hua Jin.
She was startled, and when she quickly looked back, it was Li Yunqing standing behind her.
I saw a smile on Li Yunqing's lips,
"It's rare that I, the king, think so highly of me in your mind."
She defended him in front of outsiders, which made Li Yunqing, who was originally unhappy, feel very comfortable.
In Hua Jin's eyes, these ups and downs of emotions made her feel that Li Yunqing might be suffering from some serious illness.
Some people will have some psychological changes after suffering a major blow.
Hua Jin narrowed her eyes and observed Li Yunqing carefully.
Li Yunqing, however, threw her a bunch of coupons.
"These are the general affairs of the Northern Territory that have accumulated after my wife ran away from home. I have already asked the concubine of King Qi of Guqi Prefecture to send over the documents from Guqi Prefecture. You must approve them all."
There was really a lot in my pocket, and it was poured all over Hua Jin's body so unceremoniously that Hua Jin was almost buried in these folds.
She pulled a book off her head, looked at Li Yunqing and said angrily:
"This is your fiefdom. Could it be that after your princess leaves, you won't care about anything?"
There are so many discounts, so many, so many, what does Li Yunqing do for a living?
etc!
Hua Jin suddenly reacted, sitting among the mountains of folding papers, and looked up at Li Yunqing, what did he just say? That his princess ran away from home?
It means that Li Yunqing has no memory loss at all. He still remembers that he has a princess?
"This king is used to eating soft food and is not familiar with general affairs."
Li Yunqing's eyes flashed with malice, and the words coming out of his mouth almost made Hua Jin angry to death.
She was choked and said angrily:
"After all, you are also the Lord of the North. If you don't understand these general affairs, who can? You can't rely on your princess for the rest of your life, Li Yunqing, you have to support yourself. With her gone, could it be that you don't care about your fief anymore?"
After saying this, Hua Jin intuitively felt that Li Yunqing would retaliate, and they might even fight again.
The two guards, two women, and two girls standing at the edge of the yard all looked at Li Yunqing and Hua Jin nervously.
The fight has started, the fight has started, and looking at the atmosphere, I'm afraid it will be a life-and-death situation again.
The result was abnormal. Li Yunqing did not turn on the taunting mode. His eyes were deep and unpredictable, and he looked at Hua Jin who was furious. His Adam's apple slid.
"I don't want to take care of it anymore. Without her, I don't want to take care of anything."
"you!"
Hua Jin stood up suddenly, her heart pounding heavily in her heart. She frowned and looked at Li Yunqing, threw a few notebooks in her hand into Li Yunqing's arms, turned around and left.
As she walked, tears couldn't stop flowing out. Damn it, I finally convinced myself that I wanted to end my love for this man and forget about him forever, but he came out and said these words to seduce her again!
No, she should be more awake. Li Yunqing's words were in memory of the beautiful little Princess Li, not the silver-haired mother-in-law she has now.
Hua Jin flew all the way out of the market town, feeling confused and not knowing what to do.
Finally she stopped, sat by a pool of ground fat, and took out the marriage decree from her sleeve.
It seems that only by reading the words in this imperial edict can I strengthen my Taoist heart a little bit and stop myself from desperately jumping into Li Yunqing's arms.
The cold wind blew, and beside the black sticky natural pool, the black gauze on Hua Jin's body flew with the wind, and the black gauze on her face fell down, revealing her silver hair and a world-famous face.
Yao Jun ran over with a squeak, and happened to see Hua Jin sitting on the edge of a black sticky swamp, holding the bright yellow holy letter in his hand and looking at it.
He walked over and stood behind Hua Jin, looking at Hua Jin's silver hair with complicated eyes.
"Master, Prince Xiao Li probably doesn't know about this imperial edict yet."
Should you tell him?
The imperial capital already knew about the disappearance of Princess Xiao Li, so they took advantage of this opportunity to marry Princess Biyue to Li Yunqing.
It was the emperor who offered the marriage, and Li Yunqing had no way to refuse.
Hua Jin put away the imperial edict in her hand and looked back at Yao Jun.
In the dim light, in the vast sky and earth, this glance looking back at the world seems to be able to turn all living beings upside down.
It's so beautiful that I don't even know what adjectives to use to describe this glimpse.
Just when Yao Jun fell head over heels for Hua Jin, she threw up her hand, and the bright yellow imperial edict in her hand fell into the swamp.
If you don't have excellent Qinggong, you won't be able to pick up this imperial edict at all.
