Yun Hanqing was a little nervous, so she opened the curtain with her bare hands and looked out.
I don't know where Duan Xuanyi got the news. He knew that Duan Ruoge left the palace and went directly to the Imperial Prefect's Palace after leaving the court without returning to the palace.
Duan Ruoge came out of the house sadly without finding anyone, and Duan Xuanyi eagerly tried to coax him, his movements careful and gentle, completely different from the way he ignored trivial matters in the house.
"The prince said that the princess was kind to him. He should take care of her."
There was a trace of disappointment in Yun Hanqing's eyes, but he still said generously.
On the night of the Peach Blossom Festival, when she returned to the house, Duan Xuanyi told her the past events of her childhood.
Yun Hanqing knew what it felt like to be treated harshly, so she naturally wouldn't blame her husband for taking care of her niece.
Moreover, with her simple thoughts, she probably wouldn't be able to think of that.
Since she doesn't understand, Feng Liuyun doesn't have to be a villain.
What's more, the person in front of me is so fragile. If he exposes it directly, I'm afraid he won't be able to bear it.
"Nothing. I'm leaving. Thank you Princess for your hospitality."
When Feng Liuyun saw Duan Ruoge being coaxed away by Duan Xuanyi, the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion returned to calm, he casually said goodbye, got off the carriage without hesitation, and returned to the mansion.
Duan Ruoge was not restricted from leaving the palace, and things like today happened more than once.
Sometimes they broke into the mansion, sometimes they met by chance in the city, and even when they were enjoying the scenery on the lake in spring, Yun Hanqing had seen him several times.
I don't know why, but Feng Liuyun, who looks bored and wants to get rid of Duan Ruoge, can always find him accurately, whether he is drinking tea in a tea house or watching the scenery on a boat.
Then they stayed together. Neither of them were talkative, and the quiet atmosphere was quite comfortable.
After getting along with each other for a long time, Yun Hanqing became a little relaxed and regarded the highest-ranking national preceptor in the dynasty as a good friend.
Feng Liuyun doesn't know how to make friends with anyone, but he doesn't mind her "self-confidence" much. Although he doesn't like Yun Hanqing's weak and bully character, she has helped him several times.
Not long after such a "lively" day, the little princess, who was always arrogant and fearless, was sanctioned - other countries came to the DPRK and asked for marriage.
Initially, the war situation was chaotic and many small countries were torn apart. However, since Feng Liuyun came and the Duan family fulfilled their agreement, the war situation gradually stabilized and several relatively stable countries were formed.
Among them, the Duan dynasty was the most powerful and the country was named Linyue.
This time we came to the most powerful country besides our own country, Beiming Country.
Beiming Kingdom is located in the far north, with a vast area, flocks of cattle and sheep, fat horses and strong soldiers, and its combat power is particularly high.
However, due to the geographical environment, food is not abundant, and the country has been coveting the Linyue Kingdom with the most superior terrain and rich products for a long time.
It's just that Linyue Kingdom has been developing for a long time, and its military strength is not weak and there are capable people to protect it, but it has never succeeded. On the contrary, it has suffered heavy losses.
Now that they heard that the ten-year period of the Linyue Kingdom's national division was approaching, and losing a big support, their country would have a higher chance of success, their hearts were ready to move again.
Now, it's just a test.
Beiming State sent an envoy to marry the princess, saying that he admired the culture of Linyue State and asked the princess to come and educate the people.
These words sounded high-sounding, but in fact, they had already inquired about the situation of several princesses of Linyue Kingdom when they came.
There is only one princess who is of marriageable age, and that is the thirteenth princess Duan Ruoge.
Duan Ruoge is the queen's only daughter and a young girl. Her elder brother has been established as the prince. She can be said to be the most noble woman in Linyue Kingdom besides the queen, and is favored by many.
Their request will definitely make things difficult for the emperor.
If they don't marry, Beiming Country can use the excuse that Linyue Country looks down on its own country to express dissatisfaction, and once Feng Liuyun leaves Linyue Country, they can start a war to compete for resources.
It's justifiable and won't harm your own reputation, so why not do it.
If they get married, it won't be a bad thing for them.
When a favored princess marries, the emperor and queen should express something to their beloved daughter. A generous dowry is also a good benefit.
And they will definitely not make it difficult for their daughter, nor will they make it difficult for the country where the princess is.
Even when the prince succeeds to the throne, the sister of the same mother is still somewhat important.
All in all, no matter what, they won't lose.
Wuyang Hall.
"No, I won't marry. Queen mother..."
Duan Ruoge hugged the queen's knees and cried heartbrokenly. The queen touched her little daughter's head, her eyes filled with distress and unbearability.
"My mother doesn't want you to marry either."
The queen choked with sobs and told Duan Ruoge all about Beimingguo's marriage intentions.
She doesn't feel sorry for her daughter, but she can't control such a major court matter that affects the fate of the country.
Duan Ruoge cried until his eyes were swollen like walnuts. Hearing his mother's helpless words, he felt even more desperate and sad.
"Then...then what should I do? Beiming Country is as cold as an ice cellar all year round, the environment is terrible, and the quality of the people is even lower. How can I live on? If I am asked to marry, I might as well die."
"Don't talk nonsense."
The queen scolded her daughter.
But Duan Ruoge's piercing cry made her heart feel like a knife. She frowned and pondered, and finally came up with an idea.
"Beiming Kingdom is just testing this time, rather than attacking directly. They must be afraid of the ability of the Imperial Preceptor. If the Imperial Preceptor can be persuaded to come forward, things may turn around."
"It's just..." the queen paused for a moment and continued, "I just don't know if he is willing to come forward."
When Duan Ruoge heard this, his heart gradually became clear.
Yes, as long as Feng Liuyun is willing to come forward to help her, Beiming Kingdom will never dare to have delusional thoughts about her again.
As for whether he would come forward, Duan Ruoge was still somewhat confident.
Ever since she fell in love with Feng Liuyun, she had deliberately observed that almost no woman could get close to him, except herself who never gave up.
It is said that a virtuous girl is afraid of stalking a man. She thought that men should also be afraid of stalking a woman. She had been chasing him for several years, and even if she didn't feel love yet, she still had some pity.
Feng Liuyun would definitely not be willing to marry him far away, so he said that he could still get closer to him with gratitude.
"Mother, I'm going to find the Imperial Preceptor."
Thinking of this, Duan Ruoge's sad mood completely disappeared, and he excitedly left the palace to find the imperial master.
The guards at the entrance of the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion still did not stop the princess. After all, there was such a woman coming and going around the master, so they had guessed something in their minds.
Duan Ruoge rushed directly into the room where Feng Liuyun was and cried to him for help.
Feng Liuyun glanced at her lightly, his voice sounding like winter frost.
"Why should I help you?"
"This matter is related to the exchanges between the two countries. I can help you at this time. If I leave later, I will not be able to prevent what will happen next."
Duan Ruoge blurted out.
"Can't you just leave?"
Feng Liuyun said nothing, looking at her like an insignificant grain of dust.
A grain of dust, will you change your long-standing thoughts because of her?
The answer is of course no.
Feng Liuyun had no intention of helping him when he was approached, but there was a man who eagerly approached the emperor and offered to change the outcome of the marriage.
