Chapter 56 @056
While Jing Yi and Xiao Ting were resting in the camp, Emperor Yanqing invited Jili to have tea in the imperial tent and said with a smile: "The second princess is gentle and virtuous, and he is the oldest. I intend to betroth the second princess to Shanyu. What does the Shanyu mean to do?"
Geely liked the Fourth Princess, but although he was not ashamed of Emperor Yanqing from the bottom of his heart, at this critical moment, Geely had to worry about his relationship with the Great Zhou and openly forced the Fourth Princess to force the Xiao family and the Great Zhou, which prompted the Great Zhou and Wuqu to join forces to attack his tribe, which was not worth the loss.
It’s not the fourth princess, so the remaining three princesses will marry each other. They will sleep in the royal court for a few years. When he dealt with the young boy Wuqu, the princess of Dazhou, he will kill him if he wants to kill him, and if he wants to reward his ministers, he will reward his ministers if he wants to. It is estimated that Emperor Yanqing dared not let go of a single fart.
"The second princess is very good. Thank you for your love. But my royal court has lost the Yan family and no one presided over many things. If the emperor can choose an auspicious day to send the second princess to get married this year, I will be even more grateful. Alas, it is really troublesome to have no women in this inner court." As if thinking of some trouble, Geely picked up the tea bowl and drank it in one sip like drinking.
Things went as smoothly as I imagined. The big stone that had been hanging in Emperor Yanqing's heart was put down and he was devoted to chatting with Jili.
There will still be a banquet at night.
The princesses were all staying in the tent, and Jing Yi accompanied Emperor Yanqing to the banquet.
Halfway through the banquet, King Gong's clothes were stained with wine, and he left first, and his figure disappeared into the night.
Patton snorted coldly, glared at Emperor Yanqing and said, "Emperor, Prince Gong is not able to drink enough, so he deliberately found an excuse to escape?"
Emperor Yanqing continued to talk to Geely, pretending not to hear it.
"There is not even a person who fights for alcohol. This wine is boring. I might as well go back to sleep!" Patton suddenly slapped the table and left. Before leaving, he glared at the prince-consort opposite him.
Jing Yi lowered her eyes and sat quietly. At the beginning of the meal, Patton wanted to fight with her, but she refused directly. The jar of wine during the day told Patton that she was not afraid of fighting with her. Now she had no meaning to fight with her. She would not be with her so-called face.
"They are all barbarians who are not educated, so Tingsheng doesn't have to care." King Zhao turned his head and whispered to get in touch with her.
Jing Yi smiled faintly and did it perfunctorily.
After leaving the mat, Patton walked towards the north. The darkness enveloped the vast grassland, and the lights could only illuminate a small area. When you walked a little further, you could not see anything. Patton looked back, turned around, walked about a cup of tea, and met with King Gong under a tree.
"The eldest prince asked me to come here at the table. I wonder what the hell is there?" King Gong asked in a low voice.
He was very literary, and Patton was very displeased and said straight to the point: "I heard that something happened in the palace during the Lantern Festival this year. The emperor seems to be willing to sign your royal brother as the crown prince?"
King Gong's face immediately pulled down.
On the night of the Yuan Dynasty, King Zhao used some methods to hide a snake on him. He thought it was poisonous and snaked, so scared that he fainted and incontinent. King Zhao was determined and certainly would not miss the opportunity to take advantage of the situation. He sent people to the public for a walk, which made almost everyone in the Zhou Dynasty know that King Gong was timid and incontinent, which completely ruined his reputation for his lifetime. His father originally favored him the most, but because of this, he was obviously biased towards King Zhao. After all, let a prince who had been incontinent ascend the throne, how could the royal family of the Zhou Dynasty remain?
Silence means admitting that, relying on Ye Hei's invisibility, Patton did not hide his sarcasm at all, but said, "The father needs the help of the prince if he has something to do. As long as the prince is willing to do something, the prince will trust him in the future. In any case, I, the Huns, will do my best to help him. This is a token."
As he said that, he stuffed something similar to a jade pendant into King Gong's hand.
King Gong found out the eagle pattern on it, which was indeed the totem of the Jili tribe. Holding the jade pendant, King Gong said in a deep voice: "What does the Shanyu want me to do?"
Patton smiled, leaned over to King Gong, blocked his face with one hand, and whispered a few words.
King Gong was shocked and subconsciously returned the jade pendant. He wanted to win over the Xiongnu, but he did not want to offend the Xiao family. The Xiao family held military power. No matter how strong the Xiongnu was, it would not be able to relieve the immediate worries.
Patton did not take the jade pendant and bewitched: "The Xiao family has always been loyal to the emperor. Will the Xiao family stand on the side of the prince if he doesn't offend the Xiao family? According to the current situation, without our help, the prince will be more difficult than to reach the sky! I know what the prince is worried about. Don't worry, as long as you get the person over, the father will have his own way to make her keep her mouth shut and will never tell the prince."
King Gong still hesitated.
Patton held his hand tightly, patted his shoulder, and said in a lower voice: "Prince thinks carefully, what would happen if King Zhao ascended the throne?"
King Gong's shoulders suddenly tense. When he looked at Patton, he gritted his teeth, "Okay, here tomorrow night, Shanyu is waiting."
Patton smiled and raised his hand.
King Gong understood, and sweared to him as a vow, and then left separately.
