Fortunate Young Gentleman

Chu State Imperial Palace, Imperial Study Room.

Mr. Xu and others stood quietly below, Emperor Chu sat on the main seat, and Tang Ning sat on his left.

Although he didn't want to admit it, as the lord of Xiaowan and the lord of the Western Region, Tangning already had the qualifications to be on an equal footing with him.

It wasn't until this moment that he realized why this kid had angered him again and again when he pretended to let his daughter marry the Lord of Xiaowan...

Thinking of how he had almost deceived him by pretending to be sad just now, Emperor Chu felt an unknown fire in his heart.

If he really agreed to Xiaowan's marriage proposal, wouldn't he still be advantaged in vain?

What he couldn't accept even more was that his daughter actually joined forces with this boy to lie to him!

Emperor Chu looked at Tang Ning and said in a serious tone: "You have a good plan..."

Tang Ning smiled and said, "I am the leader of the Western Regions, and so is Tang Ning. No matter who I am, my feelings for Lan Lan will not change."

After hearing this, the expression on Emperor Chu's face softened slightly. He glanced at Tangning and said, "Don't think that since you are the leader of Xiaowan Kingdom, I will marry my daughter to you easily."

Although he said that, he felt much more comfortable after knowing Tangning's identity.

How unbecoming is it for a majestic princess of the Chu State to marry an official of the Chen State as a concubine?

However, if he were the Lord of the Western Region, the meaning would be different.

This is a real match, and it does not insult the majesty of the Chu royal family.

Tangning looked at him and said, "No matter what, I will never give up."

Thinking that his daughter's elbow had turned outwards and that the matter was irreversible, Emperor Chu looked at him and said, "It's okay to ask Lanlan to marry you, but she must be Xiaowan's mother."

Tangning was stunned for a moment, then shook her head and said, "This won't work."

Snapped!

Emperor Chu slapped the table and said, "Don't push yourself too far!"

Emperor Chu was undoubtedly much more difficult to deal with than Rich Man Tang, but on this matter, Tang Ning could not give in even a step.

Unable to reach an agreement on key issues, the negotiation ended unhappily. Tangning had been mentally prepared for this. After leaving the palace, he did not return to the Princess Mansion, nor did he make any arrangements for him at the Chu State Court. Instead of settling in his own place, he found a random inn in the city.

Not long after, Li Tianlan opened the door to his room, walked in from the outside, and said, "I will persuade my father..."

Tangning held her hand and said, "It's my fault for making you wait for so long..."

Li Tianlan sat down next to him and said, "Tell me, what has happened around you in the past two years."

Tangning thought for a while and said, "There are so many things that happened, I don't know where to start..."

Li Tianlan said: "You married the third wife and the fourth wife in the past two years. How many wives do you have now?"

…

All of her questions hit her heart. Tang Ning could imagine that after taking her back to Guizhou, with her temperament, she would definitely have a fierce conflict with Fairy Tang.

If Su Mei was added to the mix, even Tangning himself didn't know what kind of embarrassing situation he would face.

Fortunately, he has not improved much in other areas over the years, but his ability to coax girls has improved steadily after countless trials.

Even so, it took Tangning three full days to get rid of the last bit of resentment in her heart.

In the past few days, Emperor Chu did not look for him.

Because in recent days, the Chu court has been busy with a big event.

The original King Xin only had one daughter, which resulted in the current His Majesty having only one princess. The Queen was infertile and he had no idea of ​​having a concubine. Under such circumstances, the choice of the next emperor of the Chu Kingdom became very important. Big question.

The State of Chu was much more active than the State of Chen in establishing a crown prince.

In order to prevent the princes from fighting each other, the Chu State would establish a prince very early. Therefore, even if the current Chu Emperor is in his prime, he must implement the crown prince position as soon as possible.

The emperor has no heirs. This kind of thing has happened in history. The solution is to pass it on to his brothers or select an heir from the royal family.

The Emperor of Chu would be emperor for many more years. Naturally, the throne could not be passed on to his brothers. Instead, he chose one from among his nephews.

Tang Ning heard a lot of people talking about this matter these days. It was said that the one who was finally selected was Prince Xian. Prince Xian was the half-brother of Emperor Chu. He left Kyoto and went to the fiefdom decades ago. But he must have been... He would not have expected that he would not be destined for the throne, but would one day sit on the throne of the Supreme Emperor.

I heard that Prince Xian came to Kyoto yesterday, and if nothing unexpected happens, his canonization ceremony will be held within this year.

Who will inherit the throne of Chu Kingdom has nothing to do with Tang Ning. When the Emperor of Chu is finished with these things, he will probably think of him soon.

Tangning stayed in the inn, bored, so she went out with Xiaoxiao for a walk.

Halfway through the stroll, Tangning suddenly seemed to remember something. She turned to look at Lao Zheng behind her and asked, "Didn't you say that you met a master here and you wanted to get back on your feet this time? Have you beaten him yet?"

He didn't originally plan to ask Lao Zheng to come with him this time, but he took the initiative to ask for a companion, and Tang Ning did not refuse.

It's just that he is a little curious about Lao Zheng. Except for Wan Yanyan's master and the old beggar, he rarely takes others seriously, let alone admits that he is slightly inferior.

Lao Zheng shook his head and said, "I didn't find it."

Tang Ning felt that it was just an excuse. His purpose was just to come to Chu with them. It must be said that as a guard, Lao Zheng's diligence was enough to make most of his colleagues ashamed.

Xiao Xiao took Tang Ning's arm and said, "Let's go to the grandmother's place to eat noodles. The grandmother's noodles are delicious..."

Hearing their conversation, Lao Zheng, who was limping behind Tang Ning, couldn't help but frown.

Speaking of which, Tang Ning hadn't eaten the grandmother's noodles for four years. Hearing this, he was also tempted and said, "Let's go. I miss the grandmother's noodles..."

The three of them came to the noodle stall, but didn't see the grandmother outside. The owner of the nearby shop said that he had just fought with an old beggar. The grandmother cooked noodles well and had a bad temper. She was a bully in Beijing. The ruffians in the whole capital had to go around her when they saw her.

Although the two were disappointed, they could only go back to the inn first.

Tang Ning was about to leave when a commotion suddenly came from the street ahead.

The people ran to the sides of the street and stood against the wall, leaving the main street. A group of people walked on the street and slowly came here.

The leader was a few young people, dressed luxuriously and with extraordinary demeanor. They were from a powerful family.

The young man walking in front looked familiar to Tang Ning. After a little thought, he remembered that he was the young man who had a conflict with them in Xianzhou because he entangled Xiao Xiao.

Xiao Xiao obviously recognized this person, tugged at Tang Ning's sleeve, and whispered: "Why is it him..."

In the crowd, the young man listened to the flattery of the people around him, and his heart was floating. He glanced inadvertently and suddenly saw a few familiar figures in the crowd.

His footsteps paused, and his face seemed to be burning again. His face sank at first, and then he sneered: "What a coincidence..."
