At the same time, Qi Songhui and Li Qing had also reached them.
Qi Songhui only glanced at the woman with pigtails and recognized who she was. He said: "Jiang Yi--"
This woman is the princess of Xiyao Kingdom they are looking for - Jiang Yi.
Jiang Yi turned around, looked at Qi Songhui, condensed his eyes coldly, and said with a smile: "Ha! Should I call you Fuyao Qingyu, the ninth prince of Fuyao Kingdom, or Qi Songhui, the national master of the realm of life and death?"
Although there are wars between countries, they will often hold state banquets, gathering kings, princes, and princesses from neighboring countries to sit together to eat and drink.
It seems peaceful on the surface, but in reality there is a turbulent undercurrent.
There are actually two purposes for holding such a state banquet. One is to take this opportunity to form an alliance between the two countries through marriage, thereby strengthening one's own power.
The other is to take the opportunity to hold a competition, with princes and princesses from various countries participating. The events include competitions in archery, chess skills, etc. The purpose is to use this gentle method to win the opponent's city without spending a single soldier. .
When Qi Songhui was still the ninth prince of Fuyao Kingdom, his father took him to such a state banquet. There was a competition at the state banquet. There are two competitions that were selected for competition, one is dancing and the other is hunting.
When he was still Fuyao Qingyu, he participated in one of the dancing competitions, and the one he passed by was Princess Jiang Yi of Xiyao.
Jiang Yi laughed at him: "I didn't expect that you, a prince, would actually go to dance! If you didn't say you were a man, I would have thought you were a princess! Hahahaha!"
Facing Princess Jiang Yi's ridicule, Fuyao Qingyu was not angry. People from their Fuyao country were not good at martial arts, but they were good at dancing. Even if he was a man, he was confident that he could outshine those princesses and win the first place in the dancing competition.
He glanced sideways at the bow and arrow in Jiang Yi's hand, then looked at Jiang Yi's skin color, which was slightly darker than the other princesses, and sneered: "I didn't expect that you, a majestic princess, like to wield swords. You're actually going to participate in a hunting competition! Tsk tsk tsk! No wonder, you don't look good dancing in all black!"
"You! You mean guy! Why are you so mouthy!" Jiang Yi was furious and wanted to reach out and hit him.
Fuyao Qingyu ducked to one side lightly and said with a smile: "What? Are you going to use your fists if you can't keep your words? This princess! I'm afraid that no prince from any country will want to marry you in the future. What do you mean? What will we do then?”
Fuyao Qingyu was too young at the time and didn't know the dangers of the world. Once he danced, he was indeed the most beautiful and won the first place in the dance competition. However, he was coveted by Emperor Xi Yao because of this, and he actually wanted to Marriage plan.
After all, the princess of their Xiyao Kingdom is really strong. As the saying goes, the harmony of yin and yang emphasizes complementarity. He is very satisfied with this ninth prince who can dance, is weak and elegant, and if such a prince marries the princess of their Xiyao Kingdom, at least You can also give birth to a gentle and gentle little prince! The thought of this made him very happy.
As for the champion of that hunting competition, Fuyao Qingyu never expected that she would fall into the hands of Jiang Yi. He really underestimated this Princess Xi Yao. She was really not a talkative person. When she started to fight, Really not inferior to men.
After that, Fuyao Kingdom and Xiyao Kingdom both won several cities from other countries through competitive competitions, and both sides felt very satisfied.
After three rounds of drinking, Emperor Xiyao expressed his love for his ninth prince to Emperor Fuyao without hesitation, and even said that if Fuyao Qingyu could marry into their country of Xiyao, then Xiyao and Fuyao would be together from now on. Form an alliance to fight against the forces of other countries.
Faced with the situation that some other small countries are growing stronger through alliances, Emperor Fuyao has not never thought about getting married.
However, he was good at strategizing. He did not agree to such a big deal in person. Instead, he said that the matter was of great importance. He had drunk too much and his mind was not clear. He needed to go back and think carefully. He expressed his interest in the matter and would reply the next morning. he.
Emperor Xiyao was also a cheerful person. Seeing that the other party was so interested in this matter and that he really couldn't make a random decision when the other party was drunk, he agreed to wait until the next morning, hoping to wait for good news.
So Emperor Fuyao called Fuyao Qingyu over that night and told him to marry Princess Xiyao. When Fuyao Qingyu heard that he wanted to marry the black princess of Xiyao Kingdom, he refused on the spot.
Emperor Fuyao was furious and said: "Although the Xiyao Kingdom has few citizens, they are good at poisoning. If our Fuyao Kingdom has an ally like the Xiyao Kingdom, , your power can grow, and you don’t have to worry about being embezzled by others. My father has already made the decision for you, and I can’t tolerate you not agreeing!”
Fuyao Qingyu was unhappy, but she didn't dare to say anything for fear of angering Emperor Fuyao.
He was shrewd and quickly thought of the Princess Xiyao who disliked him. He thought that his father would not listen to his words, but the Princess Xiyao looked brave enough. As long as she was unwilling to marry me, then this matter would not matter. It can be voided.
So he hurried to find Princess Jiang Yi of Xiyao and told her about the two emperors' private decision to marry them.
Jiang Yi was really frightened. She was one of the hundred people who looked down upon the little prince in front of her who relied on dancing to get ahead. How could she, the majestic Princess Xiyao, a woman who advocated martial arts, marry a dancing prince? Wouldn't it make people laugh if it spread out! It's really embarrassing.
After hearing this, she angrily snapped the comb in her hand, frowned and said angrily: "I don't know what my father thinks? He would actually take a fancy to a guy like you who has no power to restrain a chicken!"
Fuyao Qingyu was secretly happy in her heart. She looked at the comb that was broken by the black princess, and then looked at her half-combed hair. She couldn't help but swallow her saliva, thinking that this princess really has a bad temper, but fortunately she Stand on the same front as yourself.
He said: "Xiyao...Princess, you see that you don't like me either, and I don't like you either. If we are really tied together in the future, we will definitely get tired of each other. Why bother?"
】
Jiang Yi glared at him, and then said, "What did your father say?"
Fuyao Qingyu said: "Among the princes, I am the one who is least valued. I finally won the championship through the dance competition this time. I expected to make my father feel honored for me. Unexpectedly, it happened again like this." I have refused, but my refusal is of no use. My father still wants to marry the Xi Yao Kingdom!"
The thought of sleeping with Fuyao Qingyu made Jiang Yi's hair stand on end.
Her husband should be a powerful man. Even if this guy grows up, he will still look like a sick man. In the future, he will have to rely on himself to lead the army in battles for her. Nothing can be relied on. How can he just watch him dance for her every day? To survive?
"No!" Jiang Yi stood up angrily.
Seeing that Princess Xi Yao was angry, Fuyao Qingyu thought it was funny and continued to fan the flames: "Princess Xi Yao, since neither of us are willing, and you are so highly regarded by your father, why don't you fight to the death with your father? Otherwise, in the future, The two of us are tied together, I'm afraid it will be a nightmare!"
Jiang Yi rolled her eyes at him and said: "Fuyao Qingyu, you don't look down on me, and I, Jiang Yi, don't look down on you! I'll go tell my father right now! Huh--"
Seeing the black princess Jiang Yi kicking the door open, Fuyao Qingyun felt relieved in her heart.
The next day, Emperor Fuyao excitedly went to see Emperor Xiyao to discuss the marriage. Unexpectedly, before he could speak, Emperor Xiyao said awkwardly that his precious princess was really stubborn and would not marry the ninth prince Fuyao Qingyu at all. , otherwise we will seek death and survival, and this matter can only be dropped.
After that, the marriage between Fuyao Qingyu and Jiang Yi was stopped. This budding marriage was stopped in the cradle in time. However, after this incident, the two disdainful enemies began to have a good impression of each other.
It's not a relationship between a man and a woman, but he feels that the other person is indeed pretty good, and he has admiration in his heart. Later, he met several times at state banquets and had a good relationship. We met several times.
Once, Jiang Yi was drunkenly molested by a prince of Dongpeng Kingdom, but it was Fuyao Qingyu who stopped him. When the other prince saw that the teasing failed, he actually said evil words, saying that no princess could be so dark-looking!
When Fuyao Qingyu got angry, she threw wine in the other person's face.
Princess Xiyao behind her was furious: "Why did you steal my job? Damn it!" She went up and slapped the prince of Dongpeng Kingdom.
Putting his hands on his hips, he cursed in a loud voice: "You are a pretty boy, you are a guy who never sees the sun all day long, you only think about men stealing and women being prostitutes. Let me tell you, don't let me, Jiang Yi, see you again next time. I will punish you once I see you." I’ll beat you once!”
After Jiang Yi finished speaking, he angrily pulled Fuyao Qingyu and ran out. When the two came to a deserted place, Jiang Yi let go and looked back at him and said, "You are looking for death! How dare you throw wine in his face? He is also the prince of Dongpeng Kingdom, aren't you afraid of being punished by your father?"
Fuyao Qingyu frowned slightly and said: "I...I didn't think too much at the time. I really can't stand him bullying you like this! He just did it for no reason..."
"Hmph! I don't see that you've grown up a bit and have become a little more chivalrous. Didn't you tease me before and say I'm a scumbag?"
"Uh... I was too young at the time... not sensible yet..." Fuyao Qingyu choked at what she said, lowered her head and blushed.
Jiang Yi was generous. Seeing his embarrassment, he held his stomach and laughed, then pointed at his nose and said, "Look at your blushing face, you look like a little daughter-in-law!"
"Tsk! I'm serious. Just be careful that no one will want you in the future with your cheerful appearance!"
"Tch! No one wants me. That's because you have no vision. I, Jiang Yi, am the most beautiful princess in Xiyao country. I don't know how many warriors in Xiyao like me. In the future, I will find a sweetheart who is stronger than you and will make you mad! "
Fuyao Qingyu smiled in her heart and said, "Let's wait and see!"
Looking at the now grown-up Jiang Yi, her eyebrows and eyes are somewhat similar to those she had when she was a child, and her skin is still slightly darker than before, but I have to say that she is indeed a stunning black beauty.
