Chapter 1,033 The So-Called Dream Lover
"That Princess Yutao wants to marry this king?" Chu Liuchen also got the news and asked meaningfully, narrowing his eyes.
"Yes, it was not just the Princess Yutao who wanted to say it, but also the royal family of the country. That's why the credential went to the capital. Although our guards were watching, they were only watching the Prince of Qing and General Ningyuan. But I dare not stop the letter from the State of Ao!" Xiao Xuanzi explained cautiously.
He really had a headache when talking about this matter. How could the credentials be intercepted at will, especially at this time.
But something happened to this uninterruptible letter of credence, and Ao Guo's intention was clearly sent to the emperor, so much so that both the emperor and the Queen Mother were moved.
This was a plan to plot against the master. Xiao Xuanzi's vest felt cold. This master of his was not that easy to scheme. Is this Princess Jade Tao really looking for death and wanting to marry her?
"Of the three princesses of the Ao Kingdom, Princess Yutao is the eldest. There is another Princess Yuyan who is similar in age, and there is another one who is still younger!" Chu Liuchen said lazily, with a soft tone.
Xiao Xuanzi said hurriedly: "Master, there are indeed three princesses, but the only ones of the right age are Princess Yutao and Princess Yuyan. The one who is going to marry this time is Princess Yutao, but Princess Yuyan currently has a good relationship with Prince Qing. , I heard that he goes to see King Qing from time to time, and some people even saw the two of them going out together."
"Who are their biological mothers?" Chu Liuchen seemed to be a little interested and asked in detail.
"Princess Yutao's biological mother is from the country of Yao. She is the legitimate daughter of a large tribe in the country of Yao and the queen of the country of Yao. She has a distinguished status. However, it is said that the biological mother of Princess Yuyan is a stunning beauty and the favorite of Emperor Yao. My concubine is usually the most affectionate, and she seems to be a Han Chinese who came from our place, but what exactly is it? The country of Ao has a very tight seal on information."
Xiao Xuanzi thought for a while and said.
"This beloved concubine gave birth to a daughter?" Chu Liuchen asked.
"Not only is she a daughter, Emperor Ao's eldest prince was also born to her. The current Queen of Ao Kingdom also has a little prince who is still in his infancy. She has no ability to compete with the eldest prince for the throne. I heard that there are many people in Ao Kingdom Everyone is demanding that the eldest prince be made the crown prince of the Ao Kingdom. If the tribe of the Queen of the Ao Kingdom had not been so powerful, I would have made this beloved concubine the queen long ago!"
Xiao Xuanzi sorted out the news he had learned before reporting it.
From these directions, the current situation in the country of Ao is really similar to that of his own family. There is also no prince, and there are also open and covert fights for the position of the prince.
"I remember that women from the Ao Kingdom can also inherit the throne, right?" Chu Liuchen said lazily. His smile looked gentle, but when it fell in Xiao Xuanzi's eyes, there was a somewhat cold and almost substantial light. What do you think? No matter what, it makes people feel nervous, as if something gorgeous and evil is slowly sliding past.
"There is such a saying, so there is also a small number of people in Ao country who support Princess Yutao, but the number is too small. After all, Princess Yutao has brothers. If one of her princesses marries far away, there will be nothing. Now, let’s talk about inheriting the throne. If you want to be the crown princess, you must declare in front of the throne that you will never marry, but you can choose a husband in the country and bring your husband into the harem.”
Xiao Xuanzi said, this is the custom of Ao country.
Princesses also have the right to inherit, but after inheriting the throne, the princess cannot marry outside the family. The prince-in-law must also join the royal family, and the children born must of course bear the princess's surname.
As for marrying outside, that is definitely impossible.
"Contact Princess Yutao and tell me that I want to see her!" Chu Liuchen stretched out his slender fingers and tapped the table twice, then said.
He wanted to see how this Princess Yutao was determined. If she really wanted to marry her, he wouldn't be able to marry her, but he could help her and marry anyone she wanted, even if it was Chu from Beijing. There is nothing wrong with Liu Zhou.
But if Princess Yutao was forced to do so and had no intention of doing so, that would be just fine.
"Yes, Master, I will make arrangements now!" Xiao Xuanzi nodded understandingly, and stepped back with a smile, already having an idea in his mind.
The news from Princess Yutao came very quickly. Chu Liuchen only revealed the news here, and there was a reply from there. That night, Princess Yutao brought two confidants, came from the country of Ao, and sneaked in. To the city.
The city is now under Chu Liuchen's control. Although Princess Yutao came here in disguise, she got the news immediately.
"Princess, could it be a fake and someone from the eldest prince's side did it on purpose?" A maid dressed as a maid nervously pulled the clothes of Princess Yutao who was walking in front.
In order to prevent people from recognizing Princess Yutao, she wore simple clothes of a Han woman, with her face half covered with a gauze scarf, only revealing her bright eyes. Liangcai looks like an ordinary Han lady.
The two maids were also dressed in the same way, but from their clothes they looked like serving maids.
This is the border, and the wind and sand are strong. The veil is not to prevent people from seeing the face, but to block the wind and sand. Especially on such windy days, there are many Han women in the city dressed like this.
"No!" Princess Yutao shook her head. She was very beautiful, not the kind of weak beauty, with a somewhat vigorous appearance, and she was much taller than other women of the same age.
"Why not? If you think about it, before the envoy came, he had no such intention. Unexpectedly, just after the envoy came, these words came out, and he also said that you were devoted to this King Chen, that you admired him wholeheartedly. But in fact, you have never met this King Chen, so how can you admire him!"
The maid said angrily.
My princess has never thought about getting married, let alone marrying to the other country one day. The princess's ambition has never been here.
But the news spread like this, and many people believed it. Even the emperor came to ask the princess. In the past, the princess had repeatedly expressed to the emperor that she would not marry.
"Isn't there a painting? After I saw it, the princess naturally spread the word." Princess Yutao sneered.
Her eldest brother and second sister deliberately tried to make people think that they were attracted to King Chen, and even encouraged their father to issue a letter of credence. They actually hinted that the emperor of Dongcang Kingdom wanted to marry the two families to determine the relationship between Qin and Jin. , from now on, the two families can live in peace, and if anything happens, the two families can handle it together.
Thinking of that painting, Princess Yutao's face became more and more sinister. She was also curious at the time and took another look. It was this glance that stunned her for a moment, so that Yuyan caught the handle. When she saw this There were many ministers in the scene, and even more nodded when Yu Yan said this.
Some of them really saw that they were absent-minded, and some of them were originally from Yuyan's side. The purpose was of course to let themselves marry far away and give up the throne.
How could she be willing to do so? Every time she saw her mother's tears, she would not be willing to do so.
A woman who fled from the Han region actually robbed her mother of everything she owned, and also wanted to seize the throne that belonged to her mother's heirs. What on earth could she do with that?
She promised her mother that she would never marry, or that she would never marry before her younger brother came of age, and that she would not give up the throne to the eldest prince.
The queen mother said that she originally had a real royal brother before her, but the queen mother who was harmed by that bitch had a miscarriage. This made the eldest brother occupy the position of the eldest prince. This position was not recognized by the queen mother. He would not admit it. Even if his father wanted to push him to the throne again, it would still depend on whether he would agree.
After those people knew that they didn't want to get married, they actually did such a thing, and even sent King Chen's portrait in front of them.
That one is exactly what Princess Yutao likes most on weekdays.
She has been the eldest princess since she was a child, and her father liked her when she was a child. He specially invited some gentlemen from the Han family to teach her, treating her as a little prince, and doing everything on par with the eldest prince.
Princess Yutao has always longed for this elegant scholar from Dongcang Kingdom.
There are often such beautiful words and phrases in the Four Books and Five Classics that she has studied, which makes Princess Yutao yearn for them, but only for a moment. After all, she must have her own ambitions. If there is a fate in the future, after the position is decided, she can When recruiting a Han man as a husband, the best choice is someone who looks as gentle as jade.
It could be said that His Highness King Chen of Dongcang Kingdom looked exactly as she had imagined, and was the most perfect look she could have dreamed of, so she was stunned for a moment.
But just like that, he fell into dire straits. He was in a hurry to deal with it for a while. He has not calmed down yet. There are even great hidden dangers. If the emperor of Dongcang Kingdom really agrees to marry, how can he marry? The most likely thing in the past is yourself.
If he marries far away, he won't be able to protect his mother and younger brother.
The queen mother has always been weak in the harem, she seems to be a domineering one, but she has no control over the emperor's father's thoughts. As for the little emperor's brother who is still young, it is not certain whether he will grow up. No one knows what kind of methods the woman will use. Princess Yutao was really worried, so even if this King Chen met all her imagination, she couldn't marry him.
She came here today to meet this King Chen, hoping that this King Chen would not have this ambition, otherwise she would have no choice but to return disappointed.
Following the person who led the way, we came to an ordinary courtyard. There are the most such courtyards in this border city. The buildings are very simple. There is no close connection between the surrounding courtyards and other courtyards, leaving a small alley. On the side, looking at the door, a man who looked like a boy stood at the door, looking at Princess Yutao and his party with a smile, his expression was extremely kind.
Princess Yutao and her entourage stepped forward.
Xiao Xuanzi came over with a smile and saluted, then stepped back, pulled his hand back, and said with a smile on his face: "Dear guest, please come with me, I am already waiting inside!"
