Chapter 223 I already have a woman I like (4000 words)
Chen Lu was shocked when he saw Wa Qian.
He never thought that the person he met in the secret realm at that time would be the princess of the barbarian country!
When he remembered that the other party directly stuffed those smooth, delicate, and even slightly fragrant feet into his mouth, Chen Lu became furious!
Chen Lu felt that his dignity had been greatly insulted!
If she can, she will stuff it again!
I promise not to bite the other person’s feet this time!
When she noticed Chen Lu's gaze, the corners of Wa Zhen's mouth were slightly raised, and there was even a little bit of teasing in her eyes.
It feels more like you are eyeing prey.
It was as if Wa Qing's eyes were saying: "This time, you can't run away."
Princess Waqiang of the Man Kingdom and minister Huang Liang took their seats, with the maid serving beside Waqiang.
Chen Lu directly shifted his gaze and stopped looking.
Now Chen Lu is very confident.
Oh, Chen Lu and my sister have broken off their engagement, so that’s okay.
Mo Shuangshuang couldn't move or even say a word.
Lan Xue frowned, and her murderous intent was like thousands of spears pointing at Wa Jing's body.
And just as Chen Lu finished speaking, a blush flashed across Lan Ye's cheeks.
Our country needs to sell a man in exchange for short-term peace on the border?
If Wa Zhi tells the story about the baby's kiss, many people will definitely doubt the identity of Chen Lu's father.
After arriving at Qianguo Palace, Chen Lu went to the palace's library to find out what the nine-tailed fox's spiritual hair was.
Sure enough, when Chen Lu gave this tuft of hair to Li Sasa, Li Sasa said it was not the spirit hair of the nine-tailed fox.
Contained in the box are a pair of snake sloughs.
When Wa Zhi finished speaking, the whole place fell into silence.
Chen Lu has a woman he likes.
Lan Ye said with a smile.
But it would not be good for Lan Ye to refuse directly, so he could only ask Xiang Chen Lu.
And as long as Empress Lan granted marriage, Chen Lu would have to get married if he didn't want to, otherwise he would be disobeying the decree.
"Your country wants to recruit Chen Lu, the envoy of Qianguo Zhenyun, as your consort?"
Lan Xue looked directly into Wa Qian's eyes: "Chen Lu is the man I like!"
"It's really an honor for me to be able to come to Qian Country to celebrate my birthday."
Because people basically won’t give it to you.
However, this medicine to repair the appearance actually requires the spiritual hair of the female nine-tailed celestial fox, which is indeed a bit outrageous.
"Congratulations to Queen Qiu for entering the Ascension Realm, please take a seat." Queen Mother Lan said with a smile.
When he remembered that Chen Lu had pulled out a handful of his hair, Qiu Jiuli's heart felt like thousands of grass and mud horses galloping past.
In the Black Dragon Secret Realm, I can't defeat you, but in Qian Country, do you still dare to mess around?
"Kiuwei Kingdom, I wish Your Majesty and Her Royal Highness the Queen Mother to be as blessed as the East China Sea, live as long as the Nanshan Mountains, and wish the Qian Kingdom peace and prosperity."
And just when Chen Lu was about to refuse, Lan Xue stepped forward and stood beside Wa Qing.
Seeking marriage?
"minister"
The fifth batch is for civil and military officials to celebrate their birthdays. Officials of every rank congratulate their birthdays together, while cabinet members celebrate their birthdays under the leadership of the chief minister.
Mo Shuangshuang didn't expect that her husband would confess his love to her so secretly.
But Lan Ye was very unhappy. She felt that she had been underestimated.
Chen Lu will be in big trouble by then.
However, Waqian's father told her that she could not reveal the engagement yet in order to protect Chen Lu's identity.
Mo Shuangshuang looked at Chen Lu dreamingly.
After the meal is finished, it’s time to give gifts.
The sloughs of the Upper Cuban snakes are very precious and are worth a lot of money as elixirs. It is not a light gift.
And the same is true for Ghostland.
However, the offerings made by these small countries were only symbolic, indicating that they surrendered to the Qian Kingdom.
No! I have to find a way!
But then again, why would the other party want to ask Chen Lu to kiss him?
On the side of the ghost realm, Mo Shuangshuang was in an extremely unhappy mood and wanted to stand up and walk forward.
In fact, the things offered by these small countries are far less than the rewards from Qian Country.
The fourth batch is for the princes to celebrate their birthdays.
Qiu Qiu raised his eyebrows and was secretly anxious.
After his daughter finished the test, his son-in-law flew away.
The leader of the Sakura Kingdom came with his daughter to celebrate his birthday. They were wearing cherry clothes and wooden geta's with the classical cherry blossom pattern on them.
In the Qian Kingdom, there is a taboo, that is, you must not fall in love with a ghost.
A small town transport envoy can exchange for ten years of peace on the border and the other party's retreat of fifty miles. This is a very cost-effective thing.
It can be said that Yingguo is the most influenced vassal country by Qianguo, no other.
Simply ridiculous!
Not to mention Chen Lu!
Even if you come out of a city, I will not change it!
"The Man Kingdom congratulates Her Royal Highness the Queen Mother and Your Majesty."
Chen Lu looked at Mo Shuangshuang with mixed feelings in his heart.
In contrast, his daughter still wanted to test Chen Lu.
The corners of Wa Jing's lips raised, she put her hands in front of her and bowed: "Princess Wa Jing of the Man Kingdom, also known as the little girl, proposes marriage to Chen Lu, the transport envoy of Qian Kingdom."
Damn it!
Chen Lu is my brother-in-law!
Although we are not from the same country, love transcends borders.
Wa Zhi originally wanted to tell her about the engagement.
Lan Ye spoke from her heart.
Qiu Qiu nodded and walked with his daughter to the royal family of the Ten Thousand Monster Kingdom.
When the late emperor passed away, Bai Yiyi didn't even come.
It turned out to be nothing more than a birthday ceremony, and Bai Yiyi actually came in person, which was indeed beyond Lanye's expectation.
As the dancers entered the scene, dancing with light and graceful movements, the palace maids brought out the dishes one after another.
The third batch is for the princes of the Qian Kingdom to celebrate their birthdays.
Chen Lu didn't know what spiritual hair was, so he didn't care, he just grabbed a handful of hair first.
Lan Ye confirmed, suspecting that he heard wrongly.
What should I do? Someone is one step ahead of my daughter! And he is so proactive!
But they never realized that the ultimate goal of the barbarian country was to propose marriage?
Who in the barbarian country wants to propose marriage? And to whom should they propose marriage?
"What does marriage proposal in your country mean?" Lanye asked.
"You're welcome, princess. This gift is already extremely precious." Lan Ye smiled, but was secretly wary in her heart.
"Qiu Qiu, I have met Her Royal Highness the Princess."
While everyone was waiting for the first person to give a gift, Wa Zhi stepped forward and took out a 100-meter-long box from the storage bag.
Wa Zhi nodded.
He or something.
After all, Chen Lu wants my spiritual hair.
Wa Zhi wanted to make a deal between the Qian Kingdom and the Man Kingdom.
Lan Xue knew what Wa Qian meant.
Everyone suspected that they had heard wrongly.
After all, only in this way can Qian Guo protect them better.
But when Mo Shuangshuang had this thought, Bai Yiyi's spiritual pressure directly pressed on Mo Shuangshuang's body.
These small countries have to pay tribute every year.
Qiu Jiuli noticed Chen Lu's gaze and quietly waved his fist at Chen Lu.
"Hmph." Princess of the Ten Thousand Monster Kingdom turned her head and ignored Qiu Qiu.
"Wow."
Wa Zhi smiled.
Qiu Qiu was not annoyed, just nodded with a smile, and then sat down next to the Princess of Ten Thousand Monsters.
The scenes that happened in the ghost village reappeared in Chen Lu's mind.
Chen Lu was completely stunned.
The State of Qian treated these small affiliated countries with both benevolence and power, and had a very good reputation among the people of these small countries.
There are a total of five vassals of the Qian Kingdom.
Lanye advocated keeping everything simple and not wasting money or people, so there were no activities. Just one meal for everyone.
"Thank you, Your Highness, for your favor." Chen Lu bowed to Wa Qian, "But Chen cannot agree to Her Highness's request. Chen already has a woman he likes."
Bai Yiyi, the Lord of the Ghost Realm, brought Mo Shuangshuang to Lan Ye and Tang Zhejun.
Bai Yiyi bowed her head and walked to the cushion on the other side.
The second princess of Beihuang Kingdom also secretly made a secret promise to Chen Lufang?
After all, it is certainly not easy to find someone to marry the leader of a barbarian country.
Everyone needs to bring the gift in person and show it in front of everyone.
Wang Yan, who was sitting next to Prime Minister Fang Lin, was unhappy.
Qiu Jiuli's heart skipped a beat.
"This is the slough of a snake from Cuba. Please be careful and ask Her Majesty the Queen Mother and Your Majesty not to dislike it."
If you don’t check, you won’t know. If you check, you will be shocked.
Could it be that it's really me?
But I’m still unhappy!
How can the talented people from our country be able to become the prince-in-law of a barbarian country?
The barbarian country asked for marriage from the Qian country?
Is there any princess in Qian Kingdom?
I came here today because I want to take advantage of this happy day to marry Chen Lu and become the consort of our country."
The clothes they wear are called sakura clothes, which are adapted from the traditional clothes of the Qian Kingdom.
The handful of hair that was pulled out at that time was of no use at all, and Chen Lu threw it into the trash can.
Otherwise, it would be illegal, and Qian Guo could nominate other royal bloodlines to ascend the throne at any time.
When Lan Xue stood up, more people became even more confused.
"At that time in the Black Dragon Secret Realm, Chen Lu and I hit it off and we went through life and death together.
"Chen Lu, what do you think?"
From seven o'clock in the morning to twelve noon, the birthday celebration lasted for five hours in total, and then everyone took their seats.
Chen Lu kept looking at Qiu Jiuli.
"Yes."
"Chen Lu, what do you think?" Lan Ye looked at Chen Lu with a smile and asked for Chen Lu's opinion.
"The Ghost World congratulates Her Majesty and the Queen Mother."
Wa Zhi waved her big hand, and streaks of light flew out from the storage bag, and the rare treasures filled the large open space: "This is the gift of marriage."
In fact, Chen Lu felt that he had something to say about this matter.
The Queen of the Nine-Tail Kingdom came forward with her envoys and bowed.
"If Her Royal Highness the Queen Mother can grant a marriage, the barbarian country is willing to withdraw fifty miles from the border and not invade again for at least ten years."
So even though Mo Shuangshuang had millions of words in her heart that she wanted to say to Chen Lu, she still endured it.
On the Nine-Tail Kingdom side, Qiu Jiuli frowned, thinking about what the other party's purpose was.
So under normal circumstances, everyone gives the best gift they can.
Even Lan Ye himself was stunned for a moment.
No wonder Li SaSa was so shy and didn't answer herself.
It turns out that the spirit hair of the nine-tailed fox is
All in all, Chen Lu felt that it would be impossible for him to obtain the nine-tailed fox's spiritual hair without using some special means.
What's going on?
Lan Ye smiled and nodded: "Please invite the ghost master to take a seat."
The Sakura Kingdom envoys took their seats.
"Oh? I wonder what the courtesy is?" Lanye thought to himself that the other party finally showed his purpose.
The Black Dragon Secret Realm was shattered. After the little girl returned, all that appeared in her mind was the figure of Chen Lu.
"Chen Lu, do you want to be this woman's consort?" Lan Xue didn't want to talk nonsense to Wa Tie, so she asked Chen Lu directly.
Looking at the girl who was following her father, her long bun had already reached her bangs, giving her a rather Yamato Nadeshiko vibe.
Of course, Qian Guo generally would not use this right.
But Chen Lu knew that he couldn't show it.
Chen Lu asked again what Lingmao was, but Li Sasa blushed with embarrassment and ran away.
No wonder the spirit hair of the nine-tailed fox is so precious, especially the spirit hair of the female nine-tailed sky fox.
Qiu Qiu bowed to the princess of the Ten Thousand Monster Kingdom. No matter what, he still gave some face to the royal family of the Ten Thousand Monster Kingdom.
Lanye once had a long discussion with the cabinet about the gift from the barbarian country, and speculated on countless barbarian countries' purposes.
Before Chen Lu could answer, Wa Zhi directly gave the conditions.
These five small countries basically border on Qian Country.
Waqian just smiled and waved her hand, and the maid closed the box: "Actually, in addition to sending it to Your Majesty and the Queen Mother, Manguo has another gift today."
The size of the Ghost Realm is comparable to that of Qian Country, and to some extent, it is even more transcendent than Qian Country.
If it is a normal person in power, this transaction will definitely make a profit without losing any money, and the other party will definitely agree to it if nothing happens.
This huge square was packed with people.
In Waqian's view, the possibility of the other party's rejection is unlikely.
As Wa Xing's voice fell to the ground, the whole place fell into a commotion and discussion.
What do you, a barbarian from a barbarian country, want to do?!
"I don't agree!"
These vassal states are actually almost like vassal states. Whenever these small states want to change their emperors, they need to be recognized by the state of Qian.
Lan Ye felt that the other party must have something going on.
This envoy from a subordinate country reminded Chen Lu of the island country in his previous life.
The second group that entered the palace were the vassal states of Qian State.
Have they known each other before?
"What's the use if General Lan doesn't agree?" Wa Zhi smiled and said, "Chen Lu and I are in love. Why, does Her Highness the Second Princess still want to break us up?"
Countless pairs of eyes looked at Chen Lu, who was standing next to the little emperor.
Mo Shuangshuang kept looking at Chen Lu, who was standing next to Tang Zhejun, without shifting her gaze at all.
"Thank you, Queen Mother."
Do you even steal men?
Chen Lu is engaged to my sister!
These five small countries all regard Qianguo as the true emperor.
This may seem like a loss-making transaction, but it's actually not.
Lan Ye did not answer Wa Qian, but looked at Chen Lu beside him with a smile.
No wonder Qiu Jiuli reacted so strongly when he asked for the other party's spiritual hair.
Among these five small countries, the one that Chen Lu cared about the most was a dependent country called Ying Country.
"Your Majesty, you're welcome." Bai Yiyi smiled slightly.
See you soon.
At this moment, Mo Shuangshuang wanted to rush forward immediately.
"Oh, I didn't expect that Luo Hua wanted to be ruthless. If that's the case, then I won't force it."
Wa Zhi sighed softly, looking disappointed.
"It's just that I have a gift here, which represents a little bit of my thoughts. I hope Mr. Chen can accept it."
