my wife is queen

Chapter 139 Grassland Reply Letter
Based on Qian Dongjian's family background, his father Qian Shiyang served as the Minister of the Temple in Taipu Temple, one of the most lucrative yamen, and the family was not short of money.

After King Ding rewarded Qian Dongjian with a jade pendant, he immediately left Chalou with Yiwei.

Qian Dongjian sent King Ding to the gate of Chalou, turned back, and cupped his hands at Soni: "Let's agree that all fifty top-class horses are stallions that have not been castrated, so you are not allowed to deceive Qian." .”

Sony said affirmatively: "Young Master Qian, please rest assured, since it has already been said that this batch of high-quality horses are all stallions, we will never send second-class horses as good ones."

Hearing Sony's promise, Qian Dongjian went back with peace of mind: "The one who paid the silver this time is King Ding. Although I added [-]% to the original silver price, as long as I can help King Ding complete this matter , It’s still meritorious. All the high-quality horses bought this time are stallions, and in a few years, a large number of BMW horses will be born.”

Humming a little tune, Qian Dongjian stepped into the cloisonne official sedan and rushed towards the house.

After more than half a month, the envoy from Horqin Grassland came back and sent a letter to Li Mian.

Li Mian was sitting in the study in Dongshaojian, without even reading the letter, he had already guessed the contents of the letter.

He handed it directly to the pheasant slave next to him: "Go and hand the letter to Hongqiao, and tell her that the horses from the Horqin Grassland should be arriving soon."

The pheasant slave rested his face on his small hands, and watched the uncle practicing calligraphy in a daze. Hearing the uncle's order, he immediately stood up, took the letter, and turned to go to the embroidery room.

Before the pheasant slave entered the embroidery room, she came across the red bridge at the door of the embroidery room, and put the letter in her hand: "Young master said, the letter is about the war horse sent by the Horqin Grassland."

Hongqiao has been tossed about by the Horqin Grassland during this period of time, and often cannot sleep, thinking over and over again whether the Horqin Grassland will send war horses.

Until now, the news from the Horqin Grassland finally arrived.

Hongqiao hurriedly opened the letter in his hand, and read it impatiently: "Young master is so powerful, not only did Horqin Grassland send war horses, but also a whole hundred high-quality horses."

When Hongqiao got the good news, his first reaction was to quickly tell Princess Changping and help the uncle to say more good things.

She was also worried that the joy would be empty, and that this letter might be playing tricks on her aunt, so she waited patiently no matter how anxious she was.

Hongqiao was going to wait until one hundred top-grade horses came to the capital and handed them over to the uncle before going to tell Princess Changping the good news.

In the next few days, Hongqiao couldn't sleep anymore, and he didn't feel in the mood to eat.

Often I can't eat, and the whole person is in a trance.

Princess Changping put down the lake pen in her hand, looked at the distraught Hongqiao, and asked, "Are you homesick? If you want to go back and have a look, I will arrange a carriage to take you back."

Hongqiao looked at Princess Changping in a daze, and immediately woke up when she heard the words "go home".

She shook her bun, and said listlessly: "This servant is not homesick, but just has a surprise... Ah... Don't ask the princess, you will find out after a few days."

Princess Changping looked at Hongqiao, who was selling officials, and continued to deal with the various account books in her hand without further questioning.

If she had been an official lady, she would have sternly reprimanded her if she heard that the personal servant girl at home had inquired about the gossip, but refused to speak out.

Princess Changping didn't care, the gossip might make the wives and ladies of officials flock to her, and when they came across the gossip that they wanted to hear but couldn't hear, they would just stop thinking about food and tea all day long.

Princess Changping didn't seem to hear it, Hongqiao didn't want to say it, so she didn't listen.

When she wants to say it, she will say it.

Hongqiao waited left and right, and finally waited for the day mentioned in the letter, and hurried to the study room in Dongshaojian, dragged my uncle to Chongwenmen immediately.

Li Mian took three maids, Hongqiao, Pheasant, and Yunniang, to the busy Chongwenmen, and bumped into an unexpected person.

The relationship can't be said to be bad, but it is also Qian Dongjian who gets tired of seeing him.

With Qian Dongjian's identity and status, he humbly accompanied him and said some kind words: "The fifty high-quality horses sent this time are all uncastrated stallions. Although it is a bit more, as long as you can buy a stallion, it is worth it."

After finishing the decision, he nodded, agreed with Qian Dongjian's words, and gave the reward in advance: "I didn't expect it to be fifty high-quality horse stallions. This matter was handled well. When the stallions are delivered, I will give them a reward." There is a reward."

Li Mian vaguely heard the conversation between the two, and as the eldest son of Taipusi Siqing, he still had to speak respectfully next to that person, it seemed that the identity of that person was not simple.

Seeing that Li Mian was interested in that person's identity, Yunniang murmured in a low voice, and directly pointed out the person's identity: "Young master, please don't conflict with the person next to Qian Dongjian, he is the fourth rich vassal. One of the King Ding is also the only surviving vassal among the Nine Great Fortress Kings, and His Majesty is still his brother."

Li Mian had read many palace newspapers in the imperial court, and knew that when the Dazhu Dynasty was established, Emperor Taizu arranged nine sons to lead the frontier army at the northern border, known as the Nine Great Sailors.

It's just that because Emperor Taizong changed the national policy of Emperor Taizu, the nine great fortress kings gradually declined, and finally only the vassal kings of Dingwang still held the military power in the northern border.

The status of King Ding of this generation is quite special. When the first emperor was still alive, King Ding of the previous generation died out and had no sons to inherit the position of King Ding.

The first emperor adopted one of his sons to King Ding, who became the next generation King Ding, the brother of Emperor Jiazhen.

King Ding, as one of the four rich vassals, is also one of the most promising vassals to inherit the throne.

Li Mian knew in his heart that Prince Ding was not a vassal he could provoke, and he would not take the initiative to provoke Prince Ding.

Even if Sun Chuanting was here, he would not dare to provoke King Ding.

Sun Chuanting was not afraid of the military power in King Ding's hands, nor would he provoke him. After all, King Ding was the late emperor's own son.

As long as Sun Chuanting dared to offend King Ding in the slightest, not to mention causing all the courtiers in the court to attack, he would not even be able to pass the test in his heart.

Fallen a dishonorable infamy.

Yunniang was worried that my son-in-law didn't know the stakes here, so she said a few words: "If Sun Chuanting goes to the border with King Ding, and the two of them lead troops to fight the enemy together, King Ding has the slightest mistake, and Sun Chuanting They were all able to die to apologize. This involves loyalty and filial piety, Sun Chuanting is still a true loyal minister in the court, and he dare not and will not provoke King Ding."
