At the small tea stall in Zhilu Town, all the pedestrians in the town chose to give in.
One way is the remnant of the New Tang Dynasty, and the other is the Tubo princess.
No matter who it is, it seems that they are not easy to offend.
"We sincerely want to marry the Tubo Kingdom." Li Changkun was the first to break the calm.
At this time, another man from Tubo came up to speak on behalf of the princess: "We believe in the sincerity of the new His Highness Tang San, otherwise there would be no appointment today."
"But what Her Royal Highness the Princess said about taking concubines just now is really unacceptable. I believe that whether it was in the Tang Dynasty or Tubo, apart from men taking concubines, how could women behave like this?"
The team from the Tubo Kingdom actually knew in their hearts that even in the Tubo Kingdom, there was no such thing as a woman taking concubines.
But this is no ordinary woman, this is Her Royal Highness the Princess.
The other party seemed a little embarrassed when he wanted to explain.
But the princess was not embarrassed at all and said directly: "Why can only you men have three wives and four concubines, but not women? I tell you, either marry me as a concubine, or get out of here! Anyway, I don't like men. .”
"Pfft!" Li Changkun squirted. He didn't expect Her Royal Highness to say such words...
Don't like men!
Li Changkun was a little embarrassed, and even more embarrassed were the Tubo soldiers. Even the mage shook his head helplessly after hearing this.
The Tubo Kingdom had just been established, and Songtsen Gampo, who unified the plateau region, had just such a daughter. However, this daughter had some strange habits that she couldn't control.
"In short, ours is a political marriage. My purpose is to give my father a child to inherit the throne. After the child is born, we will live our own lives. I will not affect you in finding a woman, and you should not affect me in finding a woman. Conditions It's as simple as that, if you can stand it, just join me and patrol the city, if you can't stand it, let's not waste time now."
Li Changkun frowned, and the other party looked like he couldn't get enough of it.
Someone behind him whispered: "Your Highness, you must not agree to this matter. You are an orthodox bloodline of the Tang Dynasty royal family. How can you marry a foreigner as a concubine like a woman? If the matter spreads, even if the Tang Dynasty is conquered, the people will also I won’t recognize it.”
Li Changkun took a deep breath, stood up and said, "In that case, let's say goodbye. The Tang Dynasty has the customs of the Tang Dynasty, and we cannot respect them."
Her Royal Highness the Princess just smiled contemptuously: "Then go ahead."
Xintang and his party left the tea stall after cleaning up. The woman in gray asked in a low voice: "Your Highness, we have traveled thousands of miles to come here and are we really giving up like this?"
"Yes, now that Tubo has the advantage, it is a rare opportunity to capture Chang'an. When that time comes, Tubo will definitely need His Highness to stabilize the people, and our long-cherished wish will be realized."
Li Changkun said in a deep voice: "How could I not know this, but looking at it now, it is a complete waste of time for a little girl. You must know what your parents ordered the matchmaker to say. If you want to marry a Tibetan princess, you have to get the Tubo King's permission. Okay, as long as there are orders from Songtsan Gampo, then the little princess will only have to be obedient?"
"Your Highness, you mean that we go find Songtsen Gampo now?"
"Exactly."
After everyone put it all together, they all felt that this plan was good.
At the same time, the mage at the small tea stall was also trying to persuade her: "Your Highness, it's a matter of national concern, so you don't have to be so conspicuous. If Zanpu finds out, Her Highness will be blamed."
"Just blame it, I don't care."
"Zanpu has no children. The princess is responsible for carrying on the family lineage of the country. Sooner or later, she will have children with a man. I guess no man is willing to accept a concubine. Not to mention the men of the Tang Dynasty, even the men of the Tubo Kingdom will not be willing. Please, Your Highness the Princess, think twice..."
"Think twice? Do you think that this princess is a child? If you had not thought twice, I would have asked you to kill them all. You men have seen that this princess said that she wanted to take a concubine, but who of you knows what this princess is thinking? ? As a girl, I know that women need to be coaxed, and I really don’t like anyone who is scared to death at the mere mention of taking a concubine.”
…
Bai Song woke up from his dream, and Liu'er blushed with excitement after looking at the mountains of potatoes.
But soon he looked melancholy again.
"There are so many. It wouldn't be good if someone discovered them."
Bai Song stretched; "So we need to transport the things quickly. I just don't know how Xiaoqing is doing?"
"Young master, don't worry. Xiaoqing is under the influence of love. No matter what happens, she will do her best."
"It's not that I'm worried that she's careless, I just think that she used to be a great leader and was respected by others, so how could she ever do such a small thing? With her character, it would be bad if something happened in the city. "
Just as he was talking, Liu'er suddenly pointed to the lake beside him and said, "Master, be careful!"
There was sudden movement on the calm lake surface, and something quickly moved towards the two of them.
Bai Song was stunned, and subconsciously took two steps back, but a thought suddenly flashed in his heart, and he felt that the underwater things seemed very familiar to him.
Then, a splash of water exploded in the water, and Xiaoqing jumped out of the water naked.
Bai Song and Liu'er were both shocked. Never thought that Xiao Qing would appear in front of everyone in this way?
But Bai Song noticed that Xiao Qing didn't look well, so he quickly reached out to catch her, and then held her in his arms.
"How could it be?" Bai Song asked.
Xiaoqing shrank a little, coughed twice, and whispered: "There are masters in Tubo, there is one... a mage..."
Seeing that Xiaoqing was out of breath, Bai Song patted her smooth back and comforted her: "Don't worry, let's rest for a while."
With that said, Bai Song took off his coat, put it on Xiaoqing, and then hugged him again.
Xiao Qing narrowed her eyes in comfort. She felt that she had an indescribable sense of stability as long as she was in this man's arms. When she ran away, her breath was chaotic, but now she suddenly calmed down. She felt that this man was the holy medicine for her healing. As long as you rest peacefully in his arms, all injuries will naturally get better.
Xiaoqing lay in Bai Song's arms, feeling the tenderness but also feeling a strong sense of guilt deep in her heart.
Because she did not complete the task assigned by her master and did not need the master's scolding, she would continue to condemn herself in her heart.
Xiaoqing's eyes were red, and she felt like she had changed, and she didn't recognize herself less and less.
But she had no control over this change.
"Why are you crying?" Bai Song found Xiao Qing's expression a little strange.
Xiaoqing quickly wiped the corners of her eyes, pretending to be indifferent and said with a smile: "No, it's just a little bit of sand. I...I met the Tubo Princess in Zhilu Town. There was a very powerful mage beside the princess! I'm afraid the mage's true energy was Comparable to the great master Xu Hua back then!"
