After a long time, Chen Shiyi finally said: "Princess, you don't have to be upset. Chen Shiyi's life was given by you. Chen Shiyi will only be loyal to you in this life!"
Hearing Chen Shiyi's words, Qing Ning couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth, but on the surface she pretended to be calm and calm: "Who is irritating you because of this guy? I just don't like Qingyu~~ ~”
Chen Shi nodded and continued to remain silent.
Seeing Chen Shiyi say something and then remain silent, Qing Ning couldn't help but grind her teeth several times: "This piece of wood!"
Ten minutes later, Chen Shiyi and Qingning returned to the princess mansion.
"Your Highness Princess, Eleven!"
Leer had been waiting at the door of the princess mansion. When she saw Chen Shiyi and Qingning coming back together, Leer breathed a heavy sigh of relief, with a warm smile on her face: "Brother Shiyi, I thought you weren't coming back! "
When Chen Shiyi saw Leer, a faint smile appeared on his face: "This is my home. Where can I go if I don't come back?"
Hearing Chen Shiyi's words, Leer and Qingning were slightly startled, and their eyes immediately turned red.
Yes, Chen Shiyi's three clans were wiped out, his relatives and clan members died tragically, Chenjia Village was littered with corpses, and he no longer had a home.
"Stop talking about this, let's go home. Today is a big day. I have already prepared a sumptuous banquet. Let's celebrate!"
Le'er smiled and spoke.
Chen Shiyi and Qing Ning looked at each other, and then smiled at the same time.
"Your Highness Princess, stay behind, Chen Shiyi stays behind!"
At this moment, a sharp sound sounded, and a man galloped over on a fast horse.
Seeing the person dressed as a eunuch, Qingning couldn't help but frown.
The old eunuch came to the front and immediately dismounted, and then said: "Her Royal Highness Princess Qingning, Chen Shiyi, by the decree of the Queen Mother, Chen Shiyi is here to see you!"
After hearing the old eunuch's words, Qing Ning and Chen Shishi looked at each other and couldn't help but frown slightly.
"My father-in-law, I wonder what the Queen wants to do with Shi Yi?" Qing Ning asked.
"Your Highness, this servant doesn't know. He just conveyed the Queen's decree!"
The eunuch smiled softly.
"Chen Shiyi, let's go!"
The eunuch looked at Chen Shiyi, and Chen Shiyi looked at Qingning. Qingning nodded: "Go and go home early. We will wait for you to eat again!"
Chen Shiyi trembled slightly, then nodded slightly, turned around and headed towards the palace with the eunuch again.
Soon, Chen Shiyi and the eunuch arrived at Fengluan Hall.
"Your Majesty, Chen Shiyi is here!" The eunuch shouted respectfully at the door of the hall.
"Recently!" A clear and slightly charming voice sounded.
The eunuch turned to look at Chen Shiyi and said with a smile: "Chen Shiyi, the Queen is letting you in, go in, remember, this is the palace, be polite and respectful to the Queen!"
Chen Shiyi nodded slightly and then walked into the palace.
Looking up, I saw a woman wearing a phoenix robe and a rosy crown sitting on the main seat. Her dignity was mixed with all kinds of charm. This person was the current queen of Emperor Qian of the Daqian Kingdom. Next to the queen, Sitting there was a woman whose face was similar to the woman's, but even more charming. This person was Qingcheng.
"Chen Shiyi pays homage to the Queen!" Chen Shiyi bent down slightly and spoke calmly.
"Are you Chen Shiyi? The Chen Shiyi who caused the bell of literature to ring eight times?" As soon as Chen Shiyi finished speaking, he felt a gust of fragrant wind blowing against his face.
Chen Shiyi looked up, but it was Qingcheng who looked at Chen Shiyi with a curious face. The white snow on his chest was exposed in front of Chen Shiyi's eyes, and the fragrance of his body went straight into Chen Shiyi's nose.
Chen Shiyi immediately took a step back without looking away.
"This girl please respect yourself!"
Hearing Chen Shiyi's words, Qingcheng was stunned, and then his face immediately turned cold: "It's so boring!"
"Chen Shiyi, do you know who I am?"
Chen Shiyi looked at him calmly, with a black question mark on his head.
"Chen Shiyi, I am Your Royal Highness Princess Daqian Qingcheng!" Qingcheng couldn't help but speak. When she spoke, she had a touch of arrogance on her face, looking down at Chen Shiyi.
"Meet Her Royal Highness the Princess!" Chen Shiyi said,
A flash of anger flashed in Qingcheng's eyes: "It's Her Royal Highness the eldest princess!"
"Yes, Your Highness the Princess!" Chen Shiyi remained calm, but there was a flash of ridicule in his eyes. The eldest princess only has Qingning. As for the Qingcheng in front of her, what is this?
"You......" Qingcheng was angry.
"Okay, Qingcheng!" At this moment, the queen on the throne interrupted Qingcheng.
"Eleven, can I call you this?"
The queen looked at Chen Shiyi with a smile as bright as a flower. Although he was already over forty years old, his face did not look older at all. Instead, he looked just like the sisters from Qingcheng.
"As long as the Queen likes it!" Chen Shiyi looked calm. He had not forgotten that the Queen in front of him had used herself as an excuse to reprimand Qing Ning countless times in the past month or so, causing Qing Ning to lose face. .
"Eleven, I summoned you here today. The first reason is because there is a genius from Daqian who has caused the eight bells of the bell of literature. As the mother of Daqian and the master of the harem, I should take a good look at you, the genius of Daqian!
The second is my eldest son, the current Daqian Crown Prince Qingyu and the second princess Qingcheng. They are always hungry for talents, but the prince is busy with political affairs and can't spare time, so he asked me to recruit eleven for him... ....
I know that Eleven was wronged in Daqing, and that three tribes were exterminated by the empress of Daqing. The hatred between Eleven and the royal family of Daqing is overwhelming.
If Shiyi can assist Qingyu, when Qingyu inherits the throne in the future, he will definitely be able to send troops south to seek justice for you from the Daqing Kingdom and justice for the three tribes who died tragically! "
As the queen spoke, she looked at Chen Shiyi with burning eyes. She believed that Chen Shiyi had no reason to refuse her conditions. She also believed that Chen Shiyi was a smart person who knew how to make smart choices.
When he mentioned Daqing Kingdom, Feng Si, and his three clans, Chen Shiyi's heart was indeed fluctuating, but his appearance remained calm.
The Queen speaks better than she sings, but Daqian is much weaker than Daqing. In addition, Daqian is backed by the Demon Kingdom. As a barrier between humans and the Demon Kingdom, Daqian has to fight in the battle with the Demon Kingdom every year. Many soldiers died, so even self-protection was sometimes a problem, let alone sending troops south.
So just listen to the Queen's words as a fairy tale.
Thinking of this, Chen Shiyi shook his head slightly and said: "Chen Shiyi may have to live up to the queen's kindness. Chen Shiyi does not want to borrow the revenge of genocide from others,"
Hearing Chen Shiyi's refusal, the queen and Qingcheng were stunned for a moment, and then their faces darkened at the same time.
"Chen Shiyi, you are so brave, how dare you reject the queen?" Before the queen could speak, Qingcheng was the first to roar.
"Qingcheng!"
The queen stopped Qingcheng, then looked at Chen Shiyi, took a deep breath to adjust her emotions, forced a smile and said: "Shiyi, I haven't finished speaking yet. As long as you are willing to join the East Palace to assist the prince, you can practice in the future All the required resources from the East Palace are available.
Moreover, you can borrow the authentic books of the great sages and saints from the royal family at your own leisure, and I can even betroth you the city of Qing! How about it? "
After the queen finished speaking, she looked at Chen Shiyi with a sincere face. Qingcheng frowned slightly, and then relaxed. Although Chen Shiyi was of low blood and just a humble commoner, as a genius who caused the bell of literature to ring eight times, A great sage and powerful man in the future is barely qualified to be her consort.
Hearing the Queen's words, Chen Shiyi raised his head and glanced at Qingcheng. Seeing Chen Shiyi's eyes looking over, the pride on Qingcheng's face became even more obvious: "Chen Shiyi, if you can agree to assist my elder brother, I will marry you." It’s not impossible!”
As she spoke, she straightened up her figure.
Chen Shiyi calmly withdrew his gaze. If there was no problem with his sense of smell, when Qingcheng approached, in addition to the fragrance, there was also a smell of erosion, plus the faint scratches on the snow peak. ,
Chen Shiyi knew that Qingcheng might have been discussing software hardening and steel bar softening projects with a certain man not long ago, but in the blink of an eye she could face him without blinking or blushing, and looked at him with a proud expression. , as if to say that it would be an honor for Chen Shiyi to become her.
"Fuck!" Chen Shiyi couldn't help but cursed in his heart, feeling extremely insulted, but on the outside he remained calm.
"I'm sorry, Queen, I haven't avenged my revenge, so I don't dare to indulge in the love between children!"
After hearing Chen Shiyi's words, the faces of the queen and Qingcheng instantly darkened.
Chen Shiyi rejected Qingcheng, which meant that Chen Shiyi also rejected the queen and prince's wooing.
"Chen Shiyi, who gave you the courage to reject my queen mother? Who gave you the courage to reject me? Are you looking down on me?" Qingcheng's face was gloomy, and he was filled with anger.
She didn't expect that she would be rejected by a humble commoner.
"Chen Shiyi doesn't dare. Madam Queen, Her Royal Highness the Princess, if there is nothing else, Chen Shiyi will leave first!"
After saying that, Chen Shiyi turned around and left.
"Chen Shiyi, you are so brave, you..."
"That's enough!" Qingcheng wanted to say something more, but the queen interrupted Qingcheng herself, and then watched Chen Shiyi leave the palace step by step without moving.
It wasn't until Chen Shiyi's back disappeared outside the palace gate that Qingcheng turned to look at the queen, his face full of anger: "Mother, this Chen Shiyi is too ignorant of praise. She actually dares to reject you several times. Shouldn't we Just let him go?"
"Then what can you do?" The queen suddenly turned to look at Qingcheng, with a hint of anger on her face.
"I..." Seeing his mother angry, Qingcheng was startled and quickly lowered his head.
"Chen Shiyi has caused the eight bells of civility to ring. Your father has already summoned Chen Shiyi. Now you are going to attack Chen Shiyi, unless you think you have had enough!"
The queen spoke coldly.
Qingcheng looked unwilling: "Then let Chen Shiyi insult our mother and son like this?"
"You don't need to worry about this matter, go down!" The queen sat on the chair tiredly, rubbing her brows, and then said impatiently.
Qingcheng hesitated for a moment, then turned and left.
On the other side, Chen Shiyi also returned to the princess mansion.
When Chen Shiyi just arrived at the street in front of the princess's house, Le'er suddenly shouted in surprise: "Your Highness, Brother Shiyi is back!"
"I'm not blind, I saw it! Can you calm down?" Qingning couldn't help but rolled her eyes cutely, and then looked at Chen Shiyi: "Are you back?"
"Back!" Chen Shixi nodded.
"Why so fast?"
"Didn't you say you would wait for me to come back for dinner? I'm hungry!" Chen Shiyi said calmly.
Hearing Chen Shiyi's words, Qingning couldn't help but curl up the corners of her mouth: "I'm hungry too, let's go! Eat!"
"Oh yeah, I can finally eat~~" Leer jumped up excitedly.
Two days passed in the blink of an eye. Daqian's craze for triggering the eight bells of the Literary Bell due to Chen Shiyi was still continuing. At this time in Daqing, the court meeting ended early in the morning, and Feng Si returned to the Imperial Garden with a spring breeze on her face.
"Your Majesty!" The old monk stood up.
"Master Imperial Master, there is no need to be polite!" Feng Si showed a rare smile.
"Your Majesty, is there any happy event today?" The old monk glanced at Feng Si in surprise.
"The emperor's master is unaware that the Five Surnames and Qiwang have compromised with me. Three clans have voluntarily handed over half of their military power, and each family of the Five Surnames and Qiwangs has donated one million taels of silver to the national treasury.
The late emperor made many expeditions to the east and west, and went north to fight against the demon kingdom many times. The treasury was already empty, and the taxes collected could not make ends meet. Winter will come in a few months or two. Every winter, there will be snow disasters in the north of Daqing. Now the five surnames and seven hopes The donation can just meet the urgent need! "
Feng Si smiled.
The old monk was stunned for a moment, subconsciously feeling that something was wrong, but now that Feng Si was in high spirits, he could only echo: "Congratulations, Your Majesty!"
Feng Si nodded. Congratulations for being able to be relied upon by the late emperor as an imperial master. Her vanity was greatly satisfied. Feng Si smiled and said: "Speaking of which, there is one person who should be thanked for all this.
If he, a young man from a poor family, had not suddenly emerged and won the first prize among hundreds of noble families, Qi Wang would not be afraid that he, a poor man, would set a precedent, so he would compromise with me!
Although this compromise comes at the expense of Chen Shiyi and his three clans, as long as I can secure the throne, what does a little sacrifice mean? "
Hearing Feng Si's words, the old monk couldn't help but recite the Buddha's name: "Your Majesty, God has the virtue of a good life..."
"Master Emperor, I am not a Buddhist, so I don't believe this. I am the Emperor of Daqing. A qualified emperor must be cold-blooded. What does it matter if a few people die?"
Feng Si interrupted the old monk directly. The old monk sighed softly and stopped talking immediately.
At this moment, Manager Wu hurried in from outside, his face full of panic.
"What's the matter?" Feng Si didn't even raise her head.
"There is news from Daqian, it's about Chen Shiyi!"
