Hearing Changsun Wuji say this, Wan He thought about it. Is this really the case? Could it be that Comrade Lao Yang also saw that this young master is handsome and has a bright future, so he thought of marrying his daughter to this young master. Thinking of this Wan He couldn't help but feel a little secretly happy in his heart. It's a pity that Yang Guang didn't know what Wan He was thinking at this time. Otherwise, Long Yan would be so angry that Wan He would be knocked out.
But soon, the little bit of joy on Wan He's face disappeared. It was replaced by a look of sadness. He said: "The princess is not so easy to marry. Didn't you listen to what I just said? Even Pei Shiju is worried about him. My son petitioned me to marry the princess. In addition to Wang Shichong last time, there are many people who are eyeing the princess. How can I earn more than these big guys?"
Wan He said this. Changsun Wuji also calmed down. What Wan He said did not make sense. Neither Pei Shiju nor Wang Shichong could compare to Wan He now. Pei Shiju was a descendant of the Pei family in Hedong. The Pei family His reputation is not much worse than that of the Yuwen family. Pei Shiju now holds a high position in the court. He is also an important minister in the court. He is highly valued by Yang Guang. Although Wang Shichong is not from a noble family, he holds military power in his hands. Dominated Jiangdu, and is also the overlord of the party. Both of them are much more powerful than Wanhe. Although Wanhe spoiled Wang Shichong's proposal for his son last time, everyone knew in their hearts that Wanhe was nothing more than Wanhe. It's just taking advantage of the situation. It doesn't mean that Wan He is stronger than Wang Shichong. If Wan He really starts preparing to marry the princess, he will definitely have to do the right thing with Pei Shiju and Wang Shichong officially. Not to mention there are still things that have not surfaced. But he also peeps at the aristocratic family who holds the position of Prince Consort.
After pondering for a moment, Changsun Wuji couldn't think of any good solution. Then he turned to look at Fang Xuanling. Fang Xuanling also showed rare caution and said: "This matter is indeed a bit troublesome. But If you want to give up this rare opportunity, it will be too choked to stop eating. This position of consort is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for you, cousin. Marrying the princess and becoming the consort means that you have officially become a member of the royal family. By then, both the reputation and the power in your hands will be improved to a higher level. So, cousin, you must not give up on this matter."
"Yeah." In fact, even if Fang Xuanling didn't say it, Wan He was no longer planning to give up. Ever since Changsun Wuji explained the key, Wan He's mind has been filled with various images of Yuerong from time to time. All kinds of smiles. Wan He couldn't help clenching his fists. Damn it. If he doesn't dare to marry the woman he likes, then this young master can't be considered a man.
"That's right." Changsun Wuji's eyes suddenly lit up. He clapped his hands hard and turned to Fang Xuanling and asked: "Brother Fang Nian, do you think the emperor will choose the eldest young master as the person to marry the princess? In addition to the fact that the princess likes the eldest young master, there are other reasons."
"Other reasons." Fang Xuanling was also stunned. But after all, he was also a wise man no less than Changsun Wuji. He quickly understood what Changsun Wuji meant. He immediately said with a face of understanding: "What do you mean? The emperor intends..." As he said this, Fang Xuanling made a downward slashing motion with his palm.
"Not bad." Changsun Wuji stood up and walked back and forth in the room. As he walked, he muttered: "I'm afraid it can only be because of this. If this is really the case, maybe we can still do it. Profit from it and help the young master achieve good things."
Watching Changsun Wuji walking faster and faster, he and Fang Xuanling were talking to each other, saying things he couldn't understand. Finally, Wan He couldn't help it anymore. He directly spread his hands and said toward him. The two of them shouted: "Wait a minute. You guys, can you tell me something I can understand? What does it mean? How can I make something good happen?"
Interrupted by Wan He, Changsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling turned to look at Wanhe. Then they laughed at the same time. Changsun Wuji said with a smile: "Young master, don't be anxious. Just listen to me. Let's talk slowly. Brother Fang Nian and I just thought that this time the emperor will choose you as the person to marry the princess. I'm afraid there is another reason. The purpose is nothing more than not wanting the power of the family to increase. "
"Yes." Fang Xuanling continued: "Now the Yuwen family is the only one in the court. This may have caused the emperor's dissatisfaction. However, Yuwenshu is still aware of current affairs and does not interfere too much in the government affairs. .So the emperor can still tolerate the Yuwen family so far. But, this does not mean that the emperor will tolerate the emergence of another Yuwen family. Now, whether it is the Pei family, Wang Shichong, or some other aristocratic families, they are also very powerful. If they marry again Princess, you will definitely become the same as the Yuwen family. On the contrary, cousin, you were born in a merchant family, and you are an upstart promoted by the emperor. Marrying the princess to you will not pose any threat to the emperor's power. On the contrary, we can also use this incident to send a warning to those aristocratic families."
"Uh." Wan He thought about it carefully and finally understood what Fang Xuanling meant. His face also became a little ugly. He muttered: "In other words, I am being treated by the old, uh, emperor. I am I was used as a weapon by the emperor." Wan He felt unhappy. He almost opened his mouth and an old guy came out. Fortunately, he changed his words quickly. Otherwise, he would have frightened Changsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling.
Changsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling also heard the grievances in Wan He's heart. They both smiled helplessly. Changsun Wuji said: "There is no way. Is the whole world not the land of the king? Isn't the shore of the land the land of the king? Wang Chen. In the eyes of the emperor, everyone is a pawn that can be used. What we have to do is to seize every opportunity and strive for the greatest benefit."
"Okay." Wan He was not the kind of person who only felt sorry for himself. He quickly put all the grievances behind him. He clenched his fist hard and waved it in the air. He hummed, "Wuji, you will send it later." He is a steady person. Go to the palace to discuss tomorrow's trip with Zhang Huaian. Also, send someone to Brother Li and Yang Gongqing to ask them to send more people over. Huh, I will marry this princess. Since she has Carrying the banner of the Emperor, I will step on anyone who dares to block the way."
"Your Highness, the sedan chair is ready. Your Highness, please get on the sedan chair." The palace maid's voice came from outside the room, revealing humility and respect.
"I know." After hearing this, Yuerong, who was still dressing up in front of the bronze mirror, immediately jumped up from the stool. She held up her skirt with both hands and ran out of the door jumping up and down. But she was so anxious that everyone around her jumped up. That’s when the palace maids chased her and shouted one by one: “Princess, princess, your hair has not been combed yet. This hairpin has not been put on yet.”
Yuerong couldn't wait any longer. She had already reached the door without stopping at her feet. Without looking back, she shouted: "Let's talk about it in the sedan chair. Let's go. Let's go. We can't keep him waiting any longer." She said yes. Before he finished speaking, Yuerong jumped onto the sedan. This time, the sedan Yuerong was riding was different from those ordinary sedans. Instead, there were more than thirty sedan bearers carrying the underground palace in a large sedan. The space is very large. It can accommodate five or six people. It is covered with golden gauze, making it look even more wealthy and luxurious.
Seeing Yuerong and several personal palace maids boarding the sedan chair, the chamberlain waiting nearby immediately shouted in a high voice: "Princess is leaving the palace. Get up the sedan chair."
"Haha." More than 30 bearers shouted in unison and lifted the sedan up in one breath. The huge sedan was actually smooth and stable on the shoulders of more than 30 bearers. There was no shaking. There were another forty or fifty guards on the front, back, left and right opening the way. Such a large group of people walked towards the palace gate in a mighty manner.
On the sedan chair, the palace ladies were not idle either. They were busy helping Yuerong continue to dress up. However, Yuerong was not in a hurry. Instead, she cooperated very well and let the palace ladies help her comb her hair and draw eyebrows. I learned yesterday that her father had given her permission to do so. Going to the countryside with Wan He, Yuerong was so happy that she almost didn't sleep all night. She got up early this morning to dress up. She was afraid that she was not beautiful enough. She wanted to look her most beautiful to see Wan He.
When she thought that she would see Wan He later and go on an outing with Wan He, Yuerong's face suddenly turned red. Looking at the palace ladies, they were also panicking. One of the personal palace ladies even said She said with a sad face: "Princess, if you are like this, how can you ask the slaves to dress you up? If the makeup doesn't look good when you meet that person, princess, don't blame the slaves."
These palace maids were all close friends of Yuerong, so they spoke much more boldly. They all burst out laughing. But Yuerong was even more shy when the palace maids said this. He glared at the palace maid who was speaking. She snorted, "Damn girl. I eat so much every day and I still can't stop your mouth."
"Princess. Princess." On the other side, a younger palace maid was combing Yue Rong's hair and said briskly: "The servants of Wan Master have also seen it. She looks extremely weak. You can hear the father-in-law in the palace. He said that Mr. Wan was on the battlefield before. He killed everyone in all directions and even killed a thief chieftain with his own hands. Is this true? No matter how you look at it, Mr. Wan doesn’t want to be that powerful."
"You don't know." Yuerong has not yet answered. A palace maid on the other side has an expression that says, "I know the inside story." She said proudly: "My Lord Wan looks weak on the surface. In fact... Wan The adults have all practiced advanced internal martial arts. This kind of internal martial arts is not like those reckless men. Whoever is bigger is more powerful. On the contrary, the thinner and weaker the person is, the more powerful his skills are. Master Wan's martial arts has reached the state of returning to his original nature. He can break such a big stone with just one finger." As she said that, the palace maid also used her two hands to make a shape that was bigger than her. .
