Rebirth of Wu Ba Spring and Autumn

Chapter 259 Love Over Time
"Quilt, Ji Mi can marry. It's just that Ji Mi is the princess of Chu State, and marrying Wu State is a big event. Can Quilt give me some time to allow Chu State to prepare the dowry?"

"The country is too ordered, but the foreign ministers are all obedient."

After getting Meng Ying's promise, Beli left the Chu palace contentedly.

After coming down to court, when there was no one around, the suppressed King of Chu, Xiong Zhen, finally couldn't help saying bitterly: "Queen, why did you agree to marry Jimei to Qingji?"

"The feud between Chu and Wu cannot be resolved. Sooner or later, there will be a big battle with Wu Yue, and then there will be endless death! Doesn't the queen mother push Jimei into the fire pit?"

Hearing this, Meng Ying, who walked out of the screen, glanced at Xiong Zhen who was furious, and said indifferently: "Zhen'er, why can't you understand the queen mother's intention?"

"As a king, you should not be tied down by personal feelings. Everything must be based on the interests of the country!"

"The Kingdom of Wu has already risen, and the momentum of its rise is unstoppable. In the north of our Chu Kingdom, there are big countries like Jin and Qi, and now there are tigers sleeping soundly beside the couch. How can we be safe?"

"If you marry a Ji Mi, wouldn't it be worth it if you can exchange Chu and Wu for several years, or even more than ten years of peace?"

When Xiong Zhen heard this, he just clenched his fists secretly, wanting to refute, but he didn't know where to start.

Meng Ying shook his head again, with a look of disappointment on his face, and said slowly: "Zhen'er, it's not the queen mother talking about you. Such a person is bound by personal feelings, and can't restrain himself and work hard. How can the mother rest assured that Chu The huge family business of the country is entrusted to you?"

Xiong Zhen still looked unconvinced.

For Xiong Zhen's son, Meng Ying was more or less dissatisfied.

Of course, looking at it now, Xiong Zhen, who has been cultivated by her, Nangwa and Zixi, is not a faint king, nor is it an ordinary mediocre person.

It's just that compared with Wu Wang Qingji, who counterattacked and became king, Xiong Zhen was not even a little bit worse.

Xiong Zhen is the king of Chu, too young and unstable, but fortunately he is smart enough to become a master in time!

No matter how bad it is, Xiong Zhen can become the successor of the Chu Kingdom.

After leaving the Palace of Political Affairs, Meng Ying came to the harem again, summoned his daughter Ji Mi and told me about the marriage between Wu and Chu.

"what?"

When I heard that I was going to be married to Wu, Ji Mi made me unhappy.

Like a bolt from the blue, Ji Mi, who has always been spoiled by me, blushed with anger and said: "Mother, my daughter won't marry!"

"Chu and Wu have been at war for years, and Qingji is an enemy of Chu, how can he treat his daughter well? Aren't you pushing her into the fire pit?"

Hearing this, Meng Ying could only appease Ji Mi's feelings of being hurt by me, and said softly: "Ji Mi, how could the queen mother harm you?"

"Wu Wang Qingji is a man, and the empress mother knows that. Qingji is a great hero who stands up to heaven and earth, a hero of a generation, with a dignified appearance and extraordinary heroism. If you marry him, you will never be wronged."

"Hmph! Empress, no matter what, if my daughter doesn't marry, I want to marry you!"

Ji Mi made me feel aggrieved.

"What did you say? How can the Queen Mother marry the King of Wu?"

Meng Ying wanted to marry by Qingji's side and be with him all his life, but he couldn't do it because his identity was too sensitive.

"Ji Mi, don't be willful. Your marriage contract with the King of Wu has already been set, and now you have reached the age of Ji. As the saying goes, the male college should marry, and the female college should marry. If you don't marry such a good match as the King of Wu, you will marry Yu who?"

Ji Mi still gave me a look of indebtedness.

Seeing this, Meng Ying was a little angry, so he stared at his beautiful eyes, and said with brows: "Ji Mi, you are the princess of my Chu country, with golden branches and jade leaves, how can you act rashly?"

"Mother, can't you make up your own mind about your daughter's marriage?"

"Born in an emperor's family, marriage is a big deal, how can it be trifling? Is there any princess in the world who is not married?"

Meng Ying said dumbfoundedly: "Like the mother's queen, there was a marriage between Qin and Chu in the early years. The mother's queen and Ji were married to Chu State according to the marriage contract. Originally married to Prince Jian, I never thought it was the mother's mother of the first king."

"But, so what? The queen mother is so unfortunate, why don't you just let it go?"

Speaking of this past event, Meng Ying felt extremely sad.

Meng Ying was originally the princess of Qin State, and had a marriage contract with the prince of Chu State in her early years.

When Meng Ying married Ji, King Ping of Chu sent his minister Fei Wuji to Qin to marry Meng Ying.

However, Fei Wuji instigated King Ping of Chu, exaggerated Meng Ying's peerless beauty, and suggested that King Ping of Chu marry her himself. The lecherous King Ping of Chu readily accepted this suggestion, and exiled Prince Jian and Wu She.

This led to the final tragedy!

Isn't Meng Ying's fate sad?

Wouldn't it be better to marry a younger prince than the old King Ping of Chu?

But what about Meng Ying, who has already married to the state of Chu?
She could only smile at King Ping of Chu every day in order to win his favor, and finally she has the status she has today.

"Mother, that's your misfortune, you can't force it on your daughter."

Ji Mi made me very dissatisfied.

"Okay. Ji Mi, tell the queen mother, do you have someone you like?"

"This...no."

Ji Mi asked me to answer honestly.

"Since there is no one you like, why can't you marry Wu Wang Qingji?"

"My daughter doesn't like him!"

"Like it? Hahahaha, the silly girl of the queen mother, it is not uncommon for men and women to love each other, but how many people get married because of mutual love?"

Meng Ying persuaded her earnestly: "Ji Mi, there may be love at first sight in this world, but the queen mother believes in love over time."

"You say you don't like King Wu now, but if you get along with him day and night in the future, how can you not have mutual affection if you get along well?"

"..."

Ji Mi left me speechless for a while.

Anyway, no matter what Meng Ying says, I just don't want to marry Ji Mi.

Meng Ying was so angry that in a fit of rage, he asked someone to put Ji Mi under house arrest. He prepared the dowry by himself and planned to hand it over to the welcoming team in Wu who was waiting for him in three days!

However, Meng Ying underestimated his daughter after all.

Ji Mi asked me to escape the marriage that was imposed on me. After knocking out a court lady who delivered food, I changed into her clothes and got out of the palace of Chu.

Meng Ying felt helpless when he heard the news, but he didn't dare to speak out.

It's about to get married, she can't tell the belied, Wu Wang's marriage partner, Ji Mi let me run away, right?

In a hurry, Meng Ying could only ask Ji Yuling Yin Nangwa and Zuo Tu Zixi.

As expected of the think tank of Chu State, Zixi was full of resourcefulness, and immediately came up with a plan.

So, on the day of seeing off the relatives, Meng Ying let a woman who looked similar to Ji Mi and me get into the carriage.

But, how can this be hidden from the eyes of Wu Guoheibingtai?

After learning that the woman in the carriage was not given to me by Ji Mi, Li Li was furious, but he had no choice but to leave Yingdu and return to Wu Kingdom with the originally festive welcoming team.
