Chapter 381: Court battle (repair)

12days ago traverse Novels 7
The banquet at Honglu Temple has been full of twists and turns, and it is both more like falling and arrows. If you are not careful, you will lose the face of the great power of Chen.

Fortunately, these twists and turns were all safely spent. The people who proposed the competition were the grassland people, and they were also the ones who were embarrassed.

It is indeed impossible for the grassland people to be at peace. A prince and a princess came to Wanyan's tribe. It is unlikely that they just want to seek peace.

Destroying the relationship between Chen and Chu should be one of their goals. The second goal should be to stir up this pool of water in Chu. If you are lucky, at this gate of emperors, one way will be wrong, and a great power will decline.

Not long after Tang Ning returned from Honglu Temple, news came from the palace, inviting them to go to court with Chu officials tomorrow.

I know, we'll go tomorrow

He Rui sent away the eunuch who was delivering the order and walked back and said: Lord Tang, Emperor Chu invites us to court tomorrow. Should we ask for marriage to Princess Changning?

Tang Ning did not answer immediately. He Rui looked up at him and hurriedly added: The official is also thinking about the Lord. After all, this is the job assigned by His Majesty to Lord Tang. If you ignore it, you may be criticized after you go back.

Lord He was still too anxious. Tang Ning looked at him and said: The situation in Chu State is not yet clear. Maybe we will take the princess back. If we act rashly, it will only make things worse.

He Rui's eyelids twitched and asked: "Secret Guan is dull, can Lord Tang explain it more clearly."

Tang Ning looked at him and whispered: Lord He thinks, can the prince really be the emperor?

He Rui was stunned for a moment, and after thinking about it carefully, he couldn't help but take a breath of cold air

His Majesty married the princess because he was attracted by the identity of the prince of Chu. If the prince could not become the emperor, then this marriage would have no meaning.

At that time, I am afraid that I will still get into evil with Chu.

Tang Ning asked again: Lord He thought, why did Your Majesty kill us to marry Princess Changning?

I naturally wanted to marry Princess Changning to deepen my relationship with Chu, but after he came to Chu, he discovered that the prince of Chu and Prince Xin were as powerful as water and fire. Princess Changning was the daughter of Prince Xin. If she married her, she would inevitably offend the prince. Marrying the princess to the prince would also offend the prince...

He Rui thought for a moment, and then a sudden look appeared on his face. He looked at Tang Ning and said: Lord Tang means that only one of them can be obtained by marrying a princess or a princess…

Tang Ning smiled unanimously, and He Rui immediately bowed: The official understands

After He Rui left, Tang Ning put his hands behind his head, lay on the bed, frowned, the complex situation of Chu State, even in his opinion, it was a headache.

The most important thing is that they are guests but not masters, and they cannot turn passive into initiative. They don’t know when they can break through the dilemma in front of them.

He rubbed his eyebrows, stretched out a pair of slender hands from the side, took his hands away, and gently rubbed and pressed them on his head. The massage movement was very stiff, far less than Xiaoru. Tang Ning opened his eyes and saw Zhao Man sitting by his bed

Tang Ning sat up from the bed and immediately said: Princess...

Zhao Man looked at him and said: When there are no outsiders, don’t call me princess. Lying down quickly, I’ll press it for you again…

Usually Xiaoru gave him a massage, which was a good way to relieve stress, but if Zhao Man had the same psychological pressure.

Tang Ning shook his head and said: No, no, no, it's not good to let others see it

Zijuan, close the door. Zhao Man turned around and ordered, and saw the palace maid closing the door, and turned around and said: No one would see it.

Tang Ning sat up and said: You are a princess, I am a minister, how can you serve your ministers?

I do... Zhao Man pressed him down on the bed and said: You lie down well, now I will help you press, and you will help me draw my thrush later, and we will be even...

Tang Ning lay on the bed, looking at her focused look with her eyes open

Sometimes girls' growth is so fast that it catches people off guard

Fang Xiaopang, who is addicted to eating as much as his life, grew up overnight and lost weight in half a year. The full moon turned into a new moon.

It took less than half a year for Zhao YīngYīng to transform into Princess Pingyang Zhao Man

He looked at her, her expression was focused, although her movements were awkward, but she was extremely serious

The feeling of being liked by others is always beautiful. Even if you encounter many difficulties in the future, at this moment, Zhao Man made him feel that everything he did before was worth it.

Zhao Man's face turned red when he saw it. He reached out to cover his eyes and said: Close your eyes, don't look.

……

Three days later, the Emperor Chu, who was ill in the dragon, came to the court again. This time, in addition to the officials in the capital, there were also envoys of Chen State and grassland envoys.

See Your Majesty the Emperor!

After the court officials of Chu State performed their rituals, they were envoys of the two countries.

Emperor Chu's face looked paler than the previous two days, and he said softly: The envoy is exempted from courtesy

Thank you Emperor

You guys come from afar, and work hard all the way

Every time the Emperor Chu said something, he would pause, look at the envoy of Chen State, and say: There are many trivial matters in the court, and there have been many neglects in the past few days. I have ordered the Ministry of Rites to find a good day to let Princess Pingyang and the Prince get married as soon as possible. You don’t need to worry...

After he finished speaking, he paused for a long time before looking at the grassland messenger and said: Although the grassland has many frictions with our Chu State, the Wanyan tribe has the idea of ​​seeking peace. Our Chu State should adhere to the principle of peace as the most important thing and not invade each other...

Thank you Your Majesty. The second prince bowed and said: We have something to ask for when we are here this time

Emperor Chu sat upright and asked: What's the matter?

The second prince took out a piece of cloth from his arms and said loudly: Xiao Wang admires Princess Changning of the Kingdom for a long time. He was ordered by the Khan to marry Princess Changning, and was willing to become a relative of Chu and make a love forever...

The second prince's voice was still echoing in the hall, and many people changed their faces

Although the Chu court officials knew that the grassland people had just arrived in Chu, they visited officials on a large scale, and revealed in their words that they wanted to marry Chu, but no one cared about it.

After all, the envoys of Chen State had a similar tone. Both Chen State and Caoyuan wanted to marry Princess Changning, but they didn't have to think about it and knew which one should I agree to.

But the problem is that if the second prince of the grassland said it was true, a marriage could be exchanged for peace between Chu and the grassland. This would be like helping Chu to eliminate the biggest threat, and the benefits brought by the princess would be much greater than that of marrying Chen State.

But obviously, even if you agree to the grassland, you reject the state of Chen. The grassland is not easy to mess with, and the state of Chen is not easy to deal with.

Except for Tang Ning, the envoys of Chen, who were present, all looked angry.

Proposing to marry Princess Changning is one of the two major tasks of their trip, second only to escorting the princess to get married, but was taken first by the grassland people who emerged from somewhere. If they lose to these grassland barbarians, how can they report to the court when they go back?

Without waiting for the Emperor of Chu or the court officials to react, the second prince continued: Although the grassland is barren, it is willing to give you three thousand war horses to your country every year. As the sincerity of marrying the princess, I hope your Majesty will agree...

Three thousand war horses born on the grassland every year are a great temptation for Chu State, and many people in the court have shown a touch of emotion on their faces.

He Rui's expression changed slightly. He looked up at Tang Ning, nodded, stood up and bowed: My Chen State mission was ordered by the emperor to marry Princess Changning...

The second prince smiled and looked at him and said: The State of Chen is a country of etiquette. I don’t know what it means to come first and then come, right?

The second prince's words are wrong

Tang Ning took a step forward and said: The princess is not married yet, anyone can ask for marriage. If anyone proposes to marry first, he will marry whom. The princess of your Wanyan tribe is not married yet. If I propose to marry your princess now, do you also agree?

Wanyan Yan looked at him, spat secretly, and said: You think beautifully!
