He Yao sighed slightly: "The twenty-one swordsmen of Ailao Mountain were killed by the Ice Rakshasa twenty-three years ago on the Yuanjiang River in western Hunan. After seventeen swordsmen were killed in one fell swoop, their status in the world was declining day by day. Although they were still in Dali, It barely maintains its aloof status, but in fact, in the minds of all the forces in Dali, it has been replaced by the rising Diancangshan Golden Knife Sect."
"Brother? With your ability, of the remaining four swords from the twenty-one swords of Ailao Mountain, which one is qualified to accept you as a disciple? You know the skills of the Thirteen Wolves of Mobei. I am afraid that all the twenty-one swords that were in full bloom back then have arrived. , it may not be possible to kill them all. But you and I joined forces to kill them on the Dongshan Mountain outside Taiyuan Mansion. In that battle, I gained the reputation of the Plain Female Sword."
"But I still know what my own abilities are. Although my master is a first-rate master, I am limited by my own qualifications. Apart from Qinggong, I am only a second-rate middle-to-upper level. If I am like Mobei Thirteen One or two of the wolves may be able to barely compete. But in that battle, we encountered all thirteen wolves. So that time, you were the one who really took action."
"Although we are the same age, you are only two months older than me. But you have saved my life, so now I still call you Sister Duan. No matter from which aspect, I hope you can Get happiness. Here, as long as he is here, no one can force you to do things you don’t like."
Duan Jin's answer to He Yao's persuasion was just silence. Looking at Duan Jin, who had a good face and a plump figure in front of her, He Yao sighed slightly in her heart. There is also that woman who would like to have one more woman by her man's side. But since He Yao followed Huang Qiong wholeheartedly, she has always had a hidden worry in her heart.
At present, Huang Qiong has not chosen a concubine, and it is not yet known what kind of person the future concubine will be. But one thing was known to He Yao: the concubine's family background would definitely be extraordinary. How can the status and status of a woman who can marry into the prince's palace be low? Even Lin Hanyan from the inner house, wasn't his father also a high-ranking official when he married Prince Jing?
He, Lin Wanqing and his daughters are all from the world of martial arts. In the eyes of those high-ranking officials, the status of Jianghu people is not as good as that of ordinary people. My daughters are from humble backgrounds. If the concubine cannot accommodate them, what will they do in the future? Is it really going to cause the entire British Prince's Palace to be in uproar, just like his biological father?
Although He Yao knew that Huang Qiong would never give up herself and Wanqing for a royal concubine. But my man is a person who does big things, and the restlessness at home will definitely affect him. And his identity can only bring him a burden. He Yao didn't even know what kind of criticism Huang Qiong would cause after taking her and his group back to Beijing.
And how much trouble these criticisms will bring him. Although Lin Hanyan once told her that as long as the emperor didn't object, there should be no problem. After all, what they were fighting for was not the concubine, and generally these points were not touched upon, and the emperor generally would not go too far. After all, the emperor also had to consider the King of England's thoughts.
But He Yao didn't know what the emperor's attitude was towards these people. She didn't want Ai Lang to bear too much pressure because of herself. Although Huang Qiong repeatedly told her that he didn't care what the emperor thought. But to He Yao, Huang Qiong is the prince after all. What is an emperor? He is the person who can decide the life and death of everyone in the Qi Dynasty.
If the emperor firmly disagrees, what can Huang Qiong, his son, do? Is it possible to imitate King Jing and rebel? Duan Jin was born in the Dali royal family. She was the direct aunt of the current emperor of Dali and the eldest princess of Dali. Although Duan Jin and he hadn't seen each other for several years, He Yao still knew who Duan Jin was.
As long as Duan Jin can be persuaded, I believe that with her here, the emperor may not object so firmly. Moreover, with Duan Jin's identity, if he could really follow Huang Qiong, he would also be of great help to his lover. Although Dali is small and far inferior to Daqi in terms of territory and strength, it is also a powerful country in the southwest.
If Duan Jin can stay by Ai Lang's side, it will definitely increase Ai Lang's strength. And with the protection of Ai Lang, the King of Ying of Da Qi, Duan Jin's nephew of the Emperor of Dali would certainly not dare to force her to marry. You must know that although he, the Emperor of Dali, is also an emperor, he is just a loner at home after closing the door.
The official title of Dali Kingdom in Daqi is Taishi Jiaxiao, Yunnan Jiedushi, and King of Dali, not the Emperor of Dali. Although he is the king of a country, the weight of the king of a country may not be as important as a prince of Daqi. If Duan Jin really followed Huang Qiong, he would not dare to force her to marry him again even if he had the guts to do so.
If I can really facilitate this, it can be said to be a killing of two birds with one stone. It's just that He Yao's mind is very complicated and she has a lot on her mind. But she couldn't tell Huang Qiong or Duan Jinming what she was thinking. What she can do now is to make Duan Jin follow her lover wholeheartedly.
Huang Qiong, who had returned to the study at this time and was reading the letters between King Yong and Jia Quan, naturally did not know that He Yao would have so many thoughts after meeting Duan Jin. In Jia Quan's letter, in addition to reporting that Fan Jian's injury has generally recovered, he has now returned to the mansion to recuperate. He also made a very detailed report on what happened in the capital during this period.
In the letter, Jia Quan told Huang Qiong that after the rebellion of the two kings of Jingrui became public, the emperor would summon all the princes in Beijing to the palace and put them under house arrest to study. After King Jing's coffin arrived in Beijing and news of King Rui's death came, the emperor returned the kings to their respective mansions, but they were also imprisoned in their respective mansions and were strictly prohibited from leaving the mansion.
During this period, the troops who carried out blockades outside the royal palaces were all troops transferred from Guoyi Camp, one of the four major battalions. It was not until the King of Shu returned to Beijing that the blockade on the palaces of the princes was lifted, but the kings were also strictly prohibited from moving around at will. In the letter, Jia Quan also told Huang Qiong that the king of Guilin had arrived in Beijing with his son and the princess. As for the purpose of the Guilin County Prince's visit to Beijing, it is currently unknown.
As for King Yong's letter, although it is the same as his own, it is half-vernacular and half-spoken, which is quite out of tune. The general content of the letter, apart from complaining about the miserable life of being trapped in the palace, the rest of the content is roughly the same as Jia Quan's. But after all, he is a prince or a prince, and there are many sources of information.
Although the general content is similar, King Yong's letter revealed things that were not found or could not be identified in Jia Quan's letter. King Yong told Huang Qiong in the letter that the emperor had handed over the aftermath of Ruzhou to other people, and the King of Shu had returned to Beijing with orders. As for Ruijianying, who followed the King of Shu, he had already received the imperial decree to return to the capital before the King of Shu returned to the capital.
The King of Shu was not only deprived of military power, but also his people were immediately transferred back to the capital. The deputy envoy he recommended at the beginning was even directly transferred to Fujian Road as the deputy envoy of Jiedu. As soon as the King of Shu himself arrived in Beijing, he was imprisoned in his own courtyard, and no one was allowed to see him. The personal guards, attendants, and eunuchs of the King of Shu, including the servants in the King of Shu's courtyard, were all locked up.
The original guards of the King of Shu were all disarmed and transferred away. All the officials of the Guards were also locked up. The people who locked up the people around the King of Shu were neither Jingzhao Mansion, the Ministry of Punishment, nor the Dali Temple, but people from the North and South Zhenfusi came forward. In addition to the people from the North and South Town Fusi, both inside and outside the King of Shu's Courtyard were monitored by people transferred from Guoyi Camp.
Let alone outsiders, it was impossible for them to enter the King of Shu's Courtyard, and even the people of the King of Shu's Courtyard were not allowed to make purchases. The items needed by the King of Shu every day are all purchased by people from the North and South Town Fusi and sent to the King of Shu's courtyard. Even after he was released from the confinement, he was blocked from going to see the King of Shu.
In addition to these, King Yong also told Huang Qiong a very shocking news in the letter, that is, the story that King Duan and his family committed suicide originally reported by King Shu was false. Before Princess Duan was burned to death, she was snatched away and revived by people from the North and South Town of Fusi. Now she has returned to Beijing with the Ruijian Camp.
It's just that this third sister-in-law was not only extremely weak because her front and back parts had been raped many times, but her mind was also a little unclear at the moment. After waking up, he said everything except "let me go, he is your third brother and I am your third sister-in-law." When she sees any man, even the father-in-law in the palace, she will be extremely frightened.
Among all the princes, he is the only one who knows that Princess Duan is still alive. The emperor has been keeping this news tightly sealed. No one in the palace, let alone the court, knows about it. He learned this news from the female official who was secretly sent by his father to examine Princess Duan.
As for why the female official told him such an intimate thing in private, King Yong did not say anything in the letter. However, between King Yong's words, Huang Qiong could tell that the relationship between the female officer and King Yong was obviously unusual. If this guy is not a confidant placed in the palace, he should have some other relationship with this guy.
In addition to the fact that Princess Duan is still alive, King Yong also revealed an equally shocking news. The Prince of Guilin came to Beijing this time to ask the emperor to arrange a marriage between the crown prince and the princess. I hope to choose a husband for the princess of Guilin from among the princes who have not yet been married. The emperor has already agreed to this request.
In the letter, King Yong told Huang Qiong in a very envious tone that among the princes, he was the only one who was about the same age but not yet engaged, namely King Ying, King Shen and King Song. Although the possibility of marrying him is only 30%, with his talent, he has a much greater chance of success than King Shen and King Song.
As the seventh brother, he first congratulated Huang Qiong. If he got such a father-in-law, he would have inexhaustible money from now on. With his father-in-law's wealth, it would be easy to make him a rich man. After all, this is the legitimate princess of the Guilin County Prince. Whoever the Guilin County Prince is close to cannot treat his legitimate daughter badly.
In the last paragraph of the letter, King Yong also told him that the emperor was already aware of the matter of five Jianghu women as concubines that he had done in Zhengzhou and was very dissatisfied. According to the eunuch beside the emperor, after receiving the news, although the emperor did not get angry, his face remained dark the whole day.
In the letter, King Yong laughed at Huang Qiong, saying that he had not noticed before that his ninth brother was so romantic. It's normal to take in concubines, but you can actually take in five concubines. Moreover, these five are all women from the martial arts world, and one of them is even the master of several others. That means they are extraordinary, let alone worthy of learning by themselves.
Seeing the rather gloating tone in the last paragraph of King Yong's letter, Huang Qiong shook his head and said nothing. He took in He Yao's daughters and had no intention of hiding it from the emperor. He also knew that there must be the emperor's informants around him. For Huang Qiong, his emperor will know it once he knows it. In this way, he can better fight for status with Yao and his girls.
The emperor himself was dissatisfied with the background of He Yao's five daughters, and Huang Qiong had already been mentally prepared. In this era, the status of Jianghu people is the lowest. In the eyes of most powerful families, she is only slightly higher than a good prostitute. It is normal for the emperor to be dissatisfied with the daughters of He Yao that he has taken in now.
