Lord, don't be afraid, the princess is not angry

Chapter 286 With Her Without Me
After the Xiyue Rebellion, the two sides began a tug-of-war on the border.The Holy Majesty didn't want to abandon Xiyue who was about to get it before, but now he has changed his mind.Xiyue has swamp miasma as a natural barrier, it is really not easy to attack, and the people of Xiyue are aggressive, even girls who are less than ten years old dare to fight people with stones. The army of the Kang Dynasty suffered a lot. Unfortunately, it is impossible to slaughter all the people of Xiyue.

The last time Xiyue surrendered was to take advantage of the signing of the covenant between the two countries, and let many Xiyue people mix into the city of Dakang. Most of them were women, children and the elderly. The inside should be combined with the outside and the city will be lost.In the future, if the other party still said that they would surrender, the soldiers of the Kang Dynasty might not believe it.

Now that the two sides are working like this, no one can get a bargain, and no one is willing to bow first.However, this situation will definitely not last long, even if it is for the suffering people, there will be a compromise first.

The Holy Majesty is not willing to be a party to compromise. Thinking back to when he was young, he never bowed his head to anyone. Who knew that by chance, when he became emperor, he had to bow his head to old man Zhang, and also to Yushi, and even now he had to bow to Yue Manzi Bow your head, this is too much of a slap in the face for him.Fortunately, God helped him. This summer, Xiyue was hit by a hurricane, and then a plague broke out, and the people in the territory suffered unspeakably.A few years ago, Xiyue also encountered similar things. At that time, it was Kang Chao who extended a helping hand to donate medicine and food. Now that the two sides are fighting, it is impossible for Kang Chao to help. It is polite enough not to add trouble.

In order to appease the people and restore the people's livelihood, the ruler of Xiyue had to submit a letter of surrender to the Kang Dynasty.

The Holy Majesty was greatly relieved when he received the news, but he couldn't just let them go so simply, besides, what if they pretended to surrender again?As a condition and to see their sincerity, Kang Chao's first thing was to ask them to give up the coach who had planned to feign surrender before, and this coach was not someone else but the prince of Xiyue.

The prince of Xiyue was also a man with a heart for the common people. After hearing Kang Chao's request, he came to the border between the two countries, knelt down towards the closed gate, and then pulled out his dagger and killed himself.The soldiers in the city thought it was another trick of Xiyue, so they didn't dare to go down to collect the corpse.It wasn't until the minister of Xiyue came to the gate of the city the next day to explain that the general guarding the city let people put down the hanging basket and brought up the body of Prince Xiyue.

The soldiers in the city knew that the two sides were negotiating peace, so they immediately sent someone to send the body to Chang'an.

A few years ago, Xiyue Kingdom also came to the Grand Court Meeting to present gifts to the Holy One on the first day of the Lunar New Year. Many people in Honglu Temple had seen the prince, but the body was a little decomposed after it arrived in Chang'an. Poor ministers wanted to confirm the body. Was it the prince of Xiyue? I was forced to look and look again and again. After that, I couldn't eat for several months.

After confirming his identity, the Holy Majesty agreed to the peace talks, and asked someone to send a batch of food and medicinal materials to show his sincerity.Not long after, Xiyue sent a 50-member mission to Beijing for peace talks, accompanied by a Xiyue princess, who was said to be the youngest sister of the prince, who was only 13 years old.It is common for women in Xiyue to get married at the age of thirteen or fourteen, and this treasure and princess made it clear that they came to make a marriage.

When Zhuhua heard about it, she murmured to the people below, not knowing whether the princess really came to make a marriage or a fake marriage to get revenge.Besides, this girl is still so young, who can tell her what to say, and she is not raising a child and a daughter-in-law.If the Holy Majesty lets this princess enter the palace, it will be a relationship between grandpa and grandson instead of father and daughter.Although the Holy Majesty can still assign her to the nobles, who would dare to take her with such an identity and the vicious reputation of a Xiyue girl?If this is really given to the minister, wouldn't it be a hindrance to the minister.So when King Ping said that Jia Jia might be the candidate for marriage, she couldn't laugh at all.

"Even if my family has become a monk, they will not marry this girl." She pulled the veil angrily, and said to King Ping, "Go to the palace quickly, and just say that I don't agree."

"Even though she is bad in every way, there is one good thing. As long as you marry her, it means that your family has no destiny for the throne." King Ping persuaded helplessly.

"Every family has become a monk, which can also show that they are not destined for the throne."

King Ping knew that Zhuhua would definitely object, so he talked to Jiajia first. Fortunately, Jiajia had agreed first, which also gave King Ping the confidence to dare to mention this matter to Zhuhua.

"I've already asked Jiajia, and he is willing."

Zhuhua was so angry that tears came out, "Who are you kidding, you really think I'm a fool?"

"No, this is to discuss with you. If it doesn't work, ask the Holy One to find someone else." King Ping coaxed.

"What kind of discussion? If you hadn't made up your mind, how could everyone know before I do." Zhuhua said, she went out and called Qiu Chu to pack her clothes. He went out with a few pieces of clothes that he hastily arranged in early autumn. "Don't think that if my father is gone, you can bully me. This family has her without me."

Seeing that she was angrily going back to the Marquis of Zhongguo's mansion, King Ping immediately stopped her and didn't allow the coachman to harness her a carriage. Zhuhua ignored him, went to the stable and took a horse without even a saddle on it and rode away.Seeing her sitting reclined on the horse, King Ping was so frightened that he quickly drove the carriage to follow, but he didn't dare to follow too closely, for fear that she would speed up and fall off the horse in order to shake him off.

Prince Ping didn't feel at ease until she arrived in front of Zhongguo Hou's mansion.The gatekeeper was a little surprised to see Zhuhua come back in a hurry.Zhuhua didn't say much, and as soon as she entered the side gate, she pointed to the gatekeeper who was following King Ping.

"Don't let him in."

"Yes." They replied cautiously, and stopped Prince Ping who wanted to enter the mansion in embarrassment.

King Ping stopped in his tracks, heaved a long sigh, and had no choice but to return to the carriage and wait in front of Zhongguohou's mansion.After a while, Qiu Chu also rushed to the Zhongguo Hou's mansion, and after saluting to him, she quickly entered the Hou's mansion.The gatekeeper didn't stop her. They didn't know what happened, but they kept looking at each other.

When Qiuchu entered the courtyard reserved for Zhuhua in the Marquis of Zhongguo's mansion, the servants inside were exiting.There are all necessities in the house, and they only need to make the bed and deliver water.Zhuhua entered the room and didn't give any orders. After freshening up, she lay on the bed with her clothes on. When she entered the room at the beginning of autumn, she didn't dare to go up to ask her, so she silently retreated and went to the front to talk to Xiao Lin. Said.

King Ping heard that Zhuhua had fallen asleep, so he sat outside the mansion for a while before returning to Prince Ping's mansion.

On the second day, he asked the Hanlin Academy for leave, went directly to the Zhongguo Hou's mansion, and asked the guard at the gate to pass the news and asked him if he could go in.Zhuhua was still angry, so naturally she refused to let him in.He waited outside from morning to night, and he didn't return to the house until it was almost curfew.

King Ping's actions immediately spread to the ears of troublemakers in the city, and even Zhuhua's words "There is her but not me" were also heard by them.They felt that they had already learned the whole story. It was Prince Ping who entered the flower bush and was stopped by the tigress again, tsk tsk, what a pity.

Yinhua didn't believe the news, but she went back to Zhongguohou's mansion to find out the situation.When she arrived, King Ping came to stand outside Zhongguo Hou's mansion again, which made Yinhua feel a little bit unbearable, but thinking that if King Ping really wanted to take a concubine and broke his leg, he deserved it, so she went in with a cold face.

After entering the mansion, she heard that Zhuhua was feeding the fish in the garden, so she abducted to the garden.

Zhuhua sat in the pavilion by the lake, and sprinkled a handful of fish food into the lake expressionlessly, a group of fish rushed out to grab the food, Zhuhua pointed to the silver carp that ate the most among them, The servant woman waiting nearby knew it, and immediately fished it up, and sent it to the kitchen to add vegetables to Zhuhua.Yinhua watched people rush past her with fish in their hands, and then rolled her eyes at Zhuhua in the pavilion in front.

"You are in good spirits."

"Food is always something to eat." Zhuhua said lightly.

Seeing that the two were about to talk, the servants saw the opportunity and retreated, leaving only the two sitting in the pavilion.

Seeing that Zhuhua was listless, Yinhua was puzzled and asked, "You and your brother-in-law really fell out because of other women?"

Zhuhua nodded.

"Which lady is so bold?"

Zhuhua didn't speak, she took Yinhua's hand and wrote the word "Yue" on her palm.Yinhua frowned, why didn't she remember that there was a family named Yue in the capital, could it be that low-ranking official?Speaking of it, only those petty officials would be so bold in order to climb up.

Seeing that she didn't understand, Zhuhua lowered her voice and said, "Xiyue."

Yinhua was stunned, and said involuntarily: "That girl is probably old enough to call King Ping a grandfather!"

Zhuhua curled her lips and added helplessly, "For Jiajia."

Yinhua understood now, she clicked her tongue, patted Zhuhua's shoulder, and said nicely: "You can live in Zhongguohou's mansion with peace of mind."

Zhuhua breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at Yinhua with emotion, "Don't you think so? No one would want such a girl."

"That's right, I'm making trouble too, so I can't harm my son."

Zhuhua glanced at her and asked: "It's you, can you really make trouble?"

Over the years, Yinhua has gradually lost her temper, and many things follow Xu Mu's wishes, acting like a good wife and mother.Hearing Zhuhua's question, Yinhua was still a little bit unconvinced, and after thinking about it for a while, she said: "The big deal is to let the child take some good concubines."

When Zhuhua heard this, she frowned dissatisfied.

Yinhua knew it, but smiled and said: "I know you don't like men taking concubines, but there are always times when you can't help it. Besides, a son is a son, if the son is willing, what about how many concubines?"

Zhuhua responded, even if it was her son, she didn't want him to take a concubine, she wanted him to be a couple for life.
