Chapter 507 Worry
In any case, they are the ones who put themselves in the current situation. As long as the prince fights a bit, he will not be used everywhere and end up in the current situation.

Xiao Lingjiang lowered his eyes, picked up the wine glass and took a sip.

Yongle, who was sitting beside her, quietly came over, poked her arm and said in a low voice: "Yong'an, you know the purpose of the Xifan envoy's visit to Zhou, right?"

Xiao Lingjiang didn't raise his eyelids, and said in a low voice, "Isn't it because you want to cultivate a good relationship between the two countries?"

Yong Le frowned: "Don't pretend you don't know. I don't go out of the palace very much recently, but I heard some rumors that the envoys of Xifan mentioned the matter of marriage, but the emperor has not agreed to it."

"He Zhongcheng should be in the hall that day, how could you not know about this?"

"Oh..." Xiao Lingjiang was stunned, "I know about this. But Miss Huang also said it just now, and the Uncle Huang has not agreed to it yet, so I will talk about this matter or not."

"I don't think the Xifan envoys are easy to dismiss." Yongle's face was slightly sad, "Didn't you see how they secretly looked at them in the name of presenting gifts?"

There are many daughters of the emperor, but there are not many unmarried daughters of the right age.Apart from Princess Yongle, there are only Yongchun under Concubine An Shu's knee and Yonghe under Cao Xiuyi's knee.

If we say that in the past, Yongle would not have worried that the emperor would send him to marry him.

Not to mention that Xifan did not explicitly ask for a candidate for marriage, even if Xifan had his eyes on her alone, relying on the emperor's love and the queen's dealings with the prince, this candidate would not fall on her.

But now, in just a short time, Yongle has already recognized the reality.

The empress prince was grounded, but she was ordered by the emperor to honestly choose a son-in-law in the mansion despite her refusal to intercede. Isn't this grounded in disguise?

There is also the important life event of choosing a son-in-law. The emperor clearly knows her intentions, but Cui Shishilang is excluded from it alone.Although the princes of the noble families under Beixia had extraordinary backgrounds, few of them were in Yingdu.

Yongle is a bit more innocent, but she is not stupid, she thought about it for a while, and knew that the emperor was going to send her away from afar.

She was unwilling in her heart, but she had no choice but to seek help from the empress and prince as usual, and secretly sent a letter to her mother's Li family, but there was nothing she could do to help.

Yongle had no choice but to procrastinate and circle around to see if he could find another way to change the emperor's mind.

Unexpectedly, after this delay, the envoys from Xifan came again.

Yongle lowered his voice, and said softly: "You are also the princess now. Xi Fan didn't say which princess he wants to marry, so you are not in a hurry?"

Xiao Lingjiang raised his eyebrows slightly, poured a glass of fruit wine and handed it to her: "What's the use of being anxious? Huang Jie, whether the marriage can be done is another matter."

"Why?" Yongle asked puzzled.

Xiao Lingjiang heard the words, but did not immediately respond to her.

Western Tibet's wolfish ambitions are now only due to Nanzhao's invasion of its southwest border, and the other party has a lot of friction with the Great Zhou, so they want to make friends with the Great Zhou and avoid enemies from left and right.

Da Zhou thought about internal and external troubles at this time, and was not stable. He wanted to use this to win a few years of peace on the frontier. How could he know that it would give Xifan a breathing space in turn?
Once the two countries make good friends, there is no reason to turn their faces at once, especially the Great Zhou is a big country in the Central Plains. Once an alliance agreement is signed, how can it be easily overturned?
But if it is really a good relationship with Xi Fan, Xi Fan will no longer have to worry about the Great Zhou, and gather troops to completely beat Nanzhao to the ground. Next, the sword will be aimed at the territory of the Great Zhou.

Xiao Lingjiang said, don't say that marriage is not necessary, even the current friendship is meaningless, it's just a trick by Xifan to lure Da Zhou with rare treasures.

Now the plan of the remnants of the Eastern Shrine has been smashed by the master, and the bandits of the Fusang Kingdom have also been repelled by the officials and the people, and their vitality has been severely injured, and they will not be able to make a comeback in a short time.

Although the Di people in Beidi were eyeing, they had completely pacified the barren tribe before. Whether it was the new barren leader or the witch, their relationship with Da Zhou became closer and more stable.With the Zhenbei Army intimidating, and with the help of the barren people, the Di people in the north did not dare to make any big moves.

According to Xiao Lingjiang's thinking, making friends with Xifan is just to give it a chance to breathe.It's fine if Xifan doesn't fight, and if it takes the initiative to provoke a war, Da Zhou doesn't need to be more patient.

Taking advantage of Nanzhao being manipulated by the Great Zhou, General Yaozhou led his troops through Nanzhao to jointly attack Xifan on the border between Nanzhao and Xifan.At the same time, at the junction of Dazhou and Xifan, there were also heavy troops directly.With the cooperation of the two, it will definitely hurt Xifan's vitality, make him retreat for a hundred miles, and dare not commit another crime in ten years.

In this way, Nanzhao's desire to move closer to Xifan can be completely cut off.

It's just that her thoughts are probably not what the emperor thinks, or even what many courtiers and aristocratic families wish.

The Great Zhou Dynasty has been in power for more than fifty years. Although it has never been completely free from worries, there has not been a major battle for many years.

These people either sit high in the court hall or enjoy themselves in the courtyard. Have they ever seen the suffering of border people being harassed?

People who are immersed in the peaceful and prosperous world always don't want wars to invade their dreams.Whether it is the imperial power or the aristocratic family, they are unwilling to cause troubles in their lives.At that time, there was no immediate response to Xifan, but it was just weighing in many ways.

Xiao Lingjiang secretly sighed in her heart, it is not that there are courtiers who think the same as her, but they are only a minority.

They thought that they could not be confined to the temporary stability and forget the long-term troubles, but who would be willing to resolutely refuse when Xi Fan took the initiative to hand over the repaired signal?
The two sides have been arguing over this, and it is hard to decide for a while.

She looked in the direction of the Xifan envoys, and Gongji talked and laughed Yanyan between several cups of wine, as if he looked like a fish in water, the legendary master Tuochi still hadn't appeared.

Xiao Lingjiang narrowed his eyes slightly, but he was only going on an envoy to the Great Zhou Dynasty, so why did he need a national teacher who seldom involved in political affairs to accompany him?

Although the Buddhist Dharma Assembly in Yingdu was at its peak, it might not really be able to attract the Living Buddha Shenggen, who was worshiped by many people, to travel thousands of miles to come here.

It is said that Tuo Chi is the No.1 of the Western Tantric School, and his skills are unmatched by anyone...

Her thoughts drifted further and further away, and Yong Le, who hadn't gotten a response for a long time, pulled her sleeve impatiently: "Yong'an, why?"

Right now is not the time to discuss this matter, what's more, for Yu Yongle, it is not beneficial to know so much now, it is better not to know.

Xiao Lingjiang flicked her hand and pulled out his sleeve: "Sister Huang, this matter is up to the emperor's uncle to decide, it is not something you and I can interfere with. What's more, even if we want to get married, Xifan is still undecided." Appoint the candidate. You and I are in a hurry, but we are just in a hurry."

She leaned slightly, and said to Yongle: "I heard that Huang Jie visited Lang Jun in the mansion recently, if she is really worried about the marriage, why not find a beloved man and ask the emperor's uncle to marry him. Then Xifan naturally has nothing to do."

Yongle almost jumped when he heard this: "What nonsense are you talking about!"
