In the Guangning County Prince's Mansion, facing the crying of Princess Guangning, although the Guangning County Prince's face was calm and there was no sign of worry or anger in his heart, his face was gloomy, and the tea cup in his hand was trembling slightly, and the tea steam was thick. , making the prince's eyes even more confused and blurry.
The princess wiped away her tears and raised her eyes to look at the prince of Guangning County,
"Your Majesty, there are so many noble girls of the right age in the capital, why did you choose my family's Zili? Speaking of which, she can be regarded as the emperor's niece! What can the emperor do if he just makes a county head? Why should we sacrifice our family's Zili? To the regent?"
The Prince of Guangning County said in a deep voice,
"The regent's goal is very clear. If she is that kind of noble girl with no family background and no background, let alone the princess of the county, she will not be in the eyes of the regent! If it is possible, wouldn't it be Princess Tong'an of Concubine Shangguan Shu? More suitable? Why not choose Princess Tong'an? Is it because Princess Tong'an's uncle and grandfather have no say in the court! Concubine Shangguan Shu's natal family has declined, and Princess Tong'an doesn't even have a brother who can support her appearance. People regard this What's the use of marrying off a tablet and having to maintain it and offer it to others? Do you think the regent is stupid? Or do you think the regent is an ancestor?"
The prince of Guangning County secretly resented that this fierce regent was retreating in order to advance. He must have come here knowing that the emperor would definitely agree and must give in to him!
Hearing this, tears instantly filled the eyes of the princess. The princess said with tears in her eyes,
"Why do we, the Great Zhou Dynasty, have to accommodate Liao Rong so much? In a real fight, Liao Rong's troops can't defeat Bei Liao at all. Although we have not started a war with Bei Liao at the moment, in the past, the Li family's army has always won less and lost more. Isn’t it easy to exterminate Bei Liao and Liao Rong?”
The Prince of Guangling County glared at the princess with a bit of hatred,
"It's nonsense! The two countries are going to be destroyed at the drop of a hat? Can you send troops to destroy other people just because you don't marry your daughter? Do you have the right to have troops? Besides, what reason is there to send troops now? The regent Liao Rong has good intentions. I came here to propose marriage, to bring good fortune between two families and two countries! If you don’t want to marry, just say you don’t want to marry. Why do you want to destroy someone else’s family? Could it be that someone is proposing marriage to our Biao’er, and you don’t like it? Just take action to wipe out the family? How can I have such a domineering mother like you? No wonder you taught me that I don’t know everything, I don’t think about everything, and I have no plans. If I am a little roundabout, I don’t have so much in my mind. The water will not be taken into consideration by the regent!"
The Guangning County Prince and his wife have always been harmonious and loving. When has the Princess ever been reprimanded like this by the County Prince?
For a moment, I couldn't help but feel filled with grief and anger, full of grievances, and my voice suddenly rose several times.
"You still say that I spoil Zuili? How could I spoil her if you weren't there to support her? She doesn't even look down on Princess Tong'an, so who gives her the confidence? Zuili makes trouble everywhere, and... Who wiped her butt? Isn’t it because you and Biaoer were behind her to embolden her and support her, and that’s why she got used to being so lawless, and she’s only tall but not smart!”
The Prince of Guangning County placed the tea cup heavily and said sternly,
"Kui Li has been wronged outside, of course I have to protect her! However, she will get married eventually, and as a mother, you did not teach her how to manage the middle-income family or how to deal with disputes in the back house. As a result, she is now unruly. I am willful and have become a famous stupid eldest sister. Even a aunt like Su Jin who is not on the stage can play her around. Is this also my fault? "
The princess suddenly stood up and pointed at the prince with trembling slender fingers.
"Did you once say that even if Zuili marries into the royal family, as long as the son-in-law dares to touch a hair of Zuili, you and Biao'er will beat him to pieces, is that what you said? Now you have Come complain to me again, do you have the responsibilities of a father? Do you have the heart to be a father? Do you have the magnanimity of a head of the family!"
The Prince of Guangning was speechless when asked by the princess.
For a long time, although the Prince of Guangning County was an idle prince on the surface, he was mostly like an idle cloud and wild crane.
In fact, secretly, I dare not relax at all.
As a member of the royal family, he is actually walking on thin ice. If he is not careful, it is not impossible that his family will decline, he will live on the street, and his body may even be in a different place.
Therefore, Prince Guangning and Zhou Biao worked hard to manage and maintain their own power. The purpose was to make themselves useful in the eyes of the emperor, so that they would not be easily marginalized, wiped out, or underestimated by the civil servants and generals in the court.
Zhou Biao was in the light, but he was in the dark, helping the emperor to do many things that the emperor was not sure to leave to Dongchang and Xichang.
For example, the secret of the Duke of Li Kingdom.
For example, the mystery of the prince's disappearance.
For example, how much does Chen Zhuoxin know about secrets.
The purpose of Prince Guangning was to keep his wife and children safe, but he did not expect that such a move by Liao Rong would put him in a dilemma.
When the Prince of Guangning County saw the princess crying miserably, his heart was as sharp as a knife, so he said softly,
"Don't cry yet. The imperial edict has not been issued yet, and there is still room for relaxation. Alas, it's just a coincidence. In the past, the small Liaorong clan would not have been so bold as to ask anyone by name to marry me. Qili!"
The princess sat down slowly and sighed,
"Why this time? I heard that the deep regent of Liao Rong has countless concubines, and they are also very old, much older than us Qili. How can he have the nerve to ask for marriage so arrogantly?"
Guangning County Wangdao,
"It's not because Bei Liao poisoned Mr. Li and his son. The emperor was afraid in his heart. He didn't expect Bei Liao's hand to stretch out so long. He didn't know that the emperor's relatives in Beijing, or some noble families, had any To some extent, they were tricked by Bei Liao, or bribed by Bei Liao. If there is a war with Bei Liao, and someone in the capital acts as an insider, and Liao Rong stabs him in the back, the Great Zhou Dynasty will be in danger!"
The Prince of Guangning County clenched his fists, feeling very anxious inside.
The timing of Liao Rong's arrest was too coincidental, and he wanted to marry the noble daughter of Zhou Dynasty with such a "low" figure. The emperor gave up a "noble daughter" who was not even a daughter in exchange for Liao Rong's getting closer, why not?
But, why did Regent Liaorong focus on him?
Is there no one in the entire capital who can replace Zuili?
Does Prince Liaorong have a grudge against him?
Didn't he and Biao'er offend Regent Liao Rong at some point?
The Yuelao Temple on the outskirts of Beijing is located on a low mountain. Although the scenery is beautiful, the steps leading up the mountain are in disrepair. Although the temple is popular, there are too many places in the temple that need to be repaired, and there is no time to repair the steps. There have been fewer pilgrims recently.
On the mountain behind the Yuelao Temple, Liao Rong Regent Diici Cangshu was dressed in a bamboo-green brocade robe, with sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes. He was dressed like a scholar from the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Aunt Dan is wearing a snow-white gauze dress, and her hairpins are simple but crystal clear. The pearls sparkle as she walks.
"More than ten years have passed in the blink of an eye, and Danzhu's niece is still as charming as ever!" Dieci Cangshu politely praised.
Aunt Dan was slightly blessed.
"Uncle, thank you!"
The "poisoning" of Duke Li and his son by Bei Liao Xizuo caused an uproar in Bei Liao and the Liao Rong royal family!
Everyone speculated who was behind it, and in the end, they all agreed that it was the great master who was planning the plan.
In the end, it was naturally determined that it was the work of Duici Danzhu who had been lurking in Dazhou for many years.
However, Die Ci Danzhu left the palace since he was a child and was sent away to learn martial arts.
Even if the members of Bei Liao's royal family have seen Duici Danzhu, very few of them can still recognize Duici Danzhu now.
Otherwise, Duici Danzhu would have been exposed long ago.
However, Liao Rong stabbed Cang Shu repeatedly and found her.
"How did uncle know that my niece is here?" After receiving the letter from Dieci Cangshu, Dieci Danzhu did not dare to miss her.
Dieci Cangshu smiled slightly,
"Since you left the palace more than ten years ago, I have been sending people to keep an eye on you!"
Knowing yourself and your enemy, before Duici Cangshu became the regent, he made great efforts to spy on Bei Liao's military situation.
He knew that he was a small country with few people, so he could only seek a balance between Da Zhou and Bei Liao, but the prerequisite was that he had to understand the dynamics of the two countries.
The Zhou Dynasty had a vast territory and a large number of people, and the personnel affairs in the court became more complicated, so he did not put too much energy into it.
However, it is much easier to understand Bei Liao, who has the same clan and clan.
Dieci Danzhu's "contribution" this time brought a lot of benefits to his brother Wang. His father Khan gave his brother a lot of troops and a good territory.
Die Ci Danzhu herself was also named "Princess Protecting the Country" by her father Khan.
The "Princess Protecting the Country" has a prominent position in Liao Rong and can participate in political affairs. Although she is not as powerful as the regent, she has a great say!
Moreover, regardless of whether Brother Wang can inherit the throne of Khan, Duici Danzhu has her own scope of power!
"Congratulations to my niece for becoming the Protector Princess! I also want to thank my niece for recommending to me the county head of Jili from the Wang family in Guangning County! This Jili has a big chest and no brains, and is inextricably linked to Duke Li's palace. It's really great. Choose the right one! Otherwise, I might be misled into seeking to marry someone who is attractive but not useful. Wouldn’t it be a waste of effort!”
"Uncle worked so hard to find the Danzhu, isn't it just for congratulations and thanks?"
Dieci Cangshu took out a bronze medal and handed it to Aunt Dan.
"How about our cooperation? If it works out, you will also be my Liao Rong Princess Protector!"
Aunt Dan lowered her head and smiled.
"Danzhu doesn't have that big ambition!"
I'm crazy. What's the use of being Bei Liao's protector princess and then yours?
If not, will I be considered "colluding with foreign enemies"?
Dieci Cangshu was not in a hurry, took out another piece of paper and handed it to Aunt Dan,
"This is the antidote to suppress your inner strength, but the last step of the antidote requires the thousand-year-old blood ginseng in the private treasury of the Liaorong Palace. There are only three. One each for the King Khan, the Prince Regent and the Princess Protector."
When Aunt Dan heard this, her eyebrows moved slightly.
The elder brother said that the formula in the hands of the Great Master can detoxify, but the medicinal materials for the last step require the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty!
He couldn't even enter the palace, so naturally he no longer had any delusions.
Now, right in front of you, at your fingertips...
