However, it was precisely because it was small and easy to control that he agreed to Wuhuangmei's suggestion.
However, their previous target was the Ninth Prince Xiao Mingxuan. If the Fifth Emperor's Sister could enter the Ninth Prince's Mansion, given time, the defense map of the Changning Dynasty would be obtained sooner or later.
Once the defense map is obtained, commanding Chang Ning to expand the territory of Sangnan Kingdom is what he dreams of.
But the appearance of King Zhao made him suddenly interested in the position of crown prince of the Changning Dynasty. If he could help King Zhao ascend to the throne, he would get everything he wanted without spending a single soldier.
Just like what my father said, since the winner cannot be determined on the battlefield, then we should compete with the Changning Dynasty in strategy.
Shan Baoxiong thought this, but he didn't know that the fifth princess's eyes were extremely hot since she saw Xiao Mingxuan again.
She once had a relationship with Xiao Mingxuan, and it was precisely because of that relationship that she was obsessed with this man.
She thought that one day, she would either enter this man's mansion and become his woman, or make this man surrender to her and become her guest.
Tonight, she also tried her best to dress up. Even the red flame between her eyebrows was tattooed carefully for half an hour!
She wants to amaze him! Amaze all men!
She is still very confident about her appearance.
She didn't believe that Xiao Mingxuan would not be tempted by her!
Men all like beautiful women, and men in high positions are no exception!
As for the woman beside him, with jet-black hair flowing smoothly down her shoulders and a jade-encrusted ruby hairpin inserted diagonally on her head, she had an exquisite figure and a pure and refined face.
Luo Jiuli?
She sneered in her heart.
Since she entered the capital, she has often heard rumors about Luo Jiuli.
However, she doesn't care.
If she can have a male favorite by her side, she naturally doesn't care how many women are around Xiao Mingxuan.
What she wanted was never status, power, or the position of concubine.
Those are just passing smoke to her.
What she wants is Xiao Mingxuan, to be precise, Xiao Mingxuan's body.
Thinking like this, the fifth princess's eyes became extremely hot.
Luo Jiuli had been paying attention to the expression of the fifth princess. When he saw it, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
This fifth princess had a strange attitude towards Xiao Mingxuan.
Especially the look in his eyes just now was not simply like seeing the man he liked, it was a bit complicated.
She is proud, excited, even excited.
And when his eyes met with hers, he didn't even have the jealousy of those women. Instead, he looked at her extremely calmly.
It was as if she was looking at a woman who was not worth her efforts to deal with.
Right, that is it.
The fifth princess liked Xiao Mingxuan, but she ignored her.
This discovery instantly made Luo Jiuli's morale rise.
On the opposite side, Shan Baoxiong also saw that his Fifth Emperor's sister had always focused her eyes on Xiao Mingxuan, but Xiao Mingxuan didn't even look over except picking up food for the woman next to her from time to time.
As for that woman?
Shan Baoxiong smiled coldly.
The royal family of the Changning Dynasty is really interesting.
However, Xiao Mingxuan, the majestic God of War Prince of the Changning Dynasty, was not a womanizer in the past, but now he has a deep love for his niece-in-law who has divorced him.
Could this woman named Luo Jiuli be Xiao Mingxuan's most untouchable weakness?
"emperor."
Thinking like this, Shan Baoxiong bowed slightly.
"This time I came with my father's will to express my eternal friendship with the Changning Dynasty. From now on, we will form an in-law alliance and coexist peacefully, so that the people of the two countries can stay away from the war and enjoy peace and prosperity forever. I am also willing to give my sister-in-law's treasure to me."
Princess Cicada presents--"
"Nine Princes."
The fifth princess was waiting for the prince's words, so naturally she couldn't miss the opportunity.
She had tasted Xiao Zhumo, and she had already lost interest in all the male favorites around her, except for the very special one.
Xiao Mingxuan, on the other hand, is still the same as before, handsome in appearance, noble and domineering. She expects to conquer such a man more than all the men in the past.
"Bao Chan, the marriage is related to the peace between the two countries and the stability of the world. How can I allow you to talk nonsense and act willfully?"
Shan Baoxiong frowned, his face was as gloomy as ink, and his tone was stern.
They had discussed it well on the way, but she dared to betray them temporarily.
When Xiao Zhumo heard the fifth princess say the words Ninth Prince, he clenched his fists subconsciously, and looked at the fifth princess with an unkind look.
This bitch, when we went to Wushan in bed with him last night, she said that she would marry him and help him ascend to the position of prince.
Unexpectedly, he would dare to break the covenant between them tonight.
Taking his seat, the emperor slowly scanned the people at the table and did not respond in a hurry.
When the Duke and his wife, who had always been at the top of the court, heard this, their faces became gloomy. The Duke even tried to speak out of anger, but was stopped by his wife.
As for other clan members and courtiers, they all whispered to each other.
After all, in the Changning Dynasty, no woman was so bold and took such initiative for her marriage in public.
Some people even looked at Xiao Mingxuan and Luo Jiuli, wanting to see their reactions.
Those two people seemed to have turned a deaf ear to what the crown prince and fifth princess of Sangnan Kingdom had just said.
One brings food to the other, and one pours the wine to the other.
He is tender and affectionate, completely ignoring everyone's gaze.
Taking the seat, the Queen Mother looked at Xiao Mingxuan with a half-smile, while playing with the empty wine glass in her hand, with a meaningful color in her eyes.
Although she hated the five princesses for scheming with King Zhao, it seemed that the five princesses still didn't know the importance of Luo Jiuli to Xiao Mingxuan.
Tonight, she wanted to see what Xiao Mingxuan would do.
Is it because of Luo Jiuli's "declined rejection" of the fifth princess, or is it because of the in-law alliance, peaceful coexistence, and keeping the people of the two countries away from the flames of war?
Ha! She is really curious!
I wonder how the emperor would feel if the Nine Kings angered the crown prince and the fifth princess of Sangnan Kingdom?
"Nine Kings."
The Queen Mother, who wanted to disrupt the war situation, took advantage of her elder status and spoke.
Xiao Mingxuan stopped the chopsticks in his hand and pinched Luo Jiuli's fingers to reassure her.
"What are your orders from the Queen Mother?"
"Prince Shan just said that in order to forever be friends with the Changning Dynasty and enjoy peace and prosperity forever, he is willing to offer the five princesses to the nine kings. I wonder what the nine kings want?"
A false smile appeared on the corner of the Queen Mother's mouth. As she spoke, she paid attention to Luo Jiuli's actions.
Under such circumstances, Luo Jiuli sat silently, saying nothing from beginning to end, and obviously had no intention of paying attention to her.
Like an outsider who had nothing to do with him, he had no reaction to the Queen Mother's obviously intentional words and had no intention of giving her any face.
The author has something to say:
I can't stop reading this. The fifth princess came all the way to the Changning Dynasty. Why must people be interested in the Ninth Prince? Otherwise, I can't live up to the Ninth Prince's handsome and otherworldly appearance.
!!!Hahaha! In fact, Xiaoyao felt that it would be a bit blunt if he went straight to the Queen Mother's conspiracy, and the plot would be better if it was foreshadowed and foreshadowed.
