——
Prince Qing's Mansion.
In the lobby.
"No! Impossible! I will never go to the Southern Barbarians!" Jin Changge looked angry and shouted at his father.
Prince Qing sat upright in his chair. He had already expected his daughter's attitude, so he looked indifferent and just chuckled:
"Haha, Yongning, my father knows that you are arrogant and arrogant, and most people look down upon you."
"It's just that this Nanman warrior family is not an ordinary person. The Wu family is the master of the Southern Barbarians. Their leader Wu Kui is also a well-known hero. He is quite as brave as his father. It is said that when he was sixteen, he went into the mountains alone to fight with tigers. Courage that no man deserves!"
"Now that he is in charge of the Southern Barbarians, he has many soldiers and brave generals. If you go to the Southern Barbarians, it will not be considered as an insult to the princess' status."
After saying this, Jin Changge shook his head like a rattle.
The delicate face was already tinged with a hint of crimson due to anger.
"No, I know who the Southern Barbarians are. Wukui's father led the Southern Barbarians to invade my Dagan territory. If General Huwei hadn't gone to defeat him, they would still be in rebellion now."
"Like father, like son. I don't believe this Wu Kui is a good person."
"Besides, I don't want to get married. What's the benefit of getting married? Staying at home and raising your husband and children? I can't sit still!"
Having said this, she sat in her chair angrily.
Prince Qing picked up the tea cup and took a sip, and said calmly: "You can't say that. Now that the Southern Barbarians have surrendered to me, it's not like back then."
"Not to mention that Wu Kuinai is a well-known hero. You can't be wronged by marrying him. Besides, after you marry him, this southern barbarian will have a closer relationship with me in the future, and there will be no dissent in the future. , which is a good thing for the country and the people."
"This is the best of both worlds, why wouldn't you want to?"
After saying this, Jin Changge was startled, then she raised her eyebrows and said in a deep voice:
"Dad, according to what you said, the Southern Barbarians have surrendered, so why let me marry them?"
"Besides, for so many years, the Southern Barbarians have not had any dissent. Why do you want me to marry you at this time?"
"Could it be that Dad, you..."
Before Jin Changge finished speaking, Prince Qing's face darkened and he said:
"You talk about going into battle to kill the enemy every day, but you are a girl. What can you do if you are with the men in the army? Who will obey you? Just because of your status as a princess?"
"Without this title of princess, who will listen to you?"
"By marrying Wukui, firstly, the relationship between the Nanman and us will be closer, and you will be more loyal to us in the future. Secondly, you went to the Nanman. What do you want to do? With your status as the wife of the Nanman King, then... Or is it a matter of blowing pillow air?"
"The Southern Barbarians are fond of martial arts. Talk to Na Wukui. It's not a big deal even if I give you a troop of soldiers and horses to lead. Isn't it just what you want?"
After the words fell, Jin Changge frowned:
"I don't want this. A daughter can also achieve great things."
"Why do I have to rely on others? I can start from scratch."
"Anyway, I won't get married, let alone go to Nanman. It's useless what you say, dad."
"If you force me to go, then I will make trouble, huh, I will never marry you."
As soon as he said this, King Qing slapped the table and said with a trace of anger on his face:
"Yongning! Listen!"
"The world is not peaceful now. In the East China Sea some time ago, Fuso has begun to harass fishermen, and it seems likely that they will land in the East China Sea to cause trouble."
"But in Xijing, Qin Ze respected his own troops and used war to support the war under the guise of war with Tuyuan Kingdom. All the people sent by His Majesty to convey the imperial edict were killed by him! Everyone knows his treasonous intentions!"
"There are people from the Crimson Tide Alliance who are causing trouble behind the scenes and deceiving the people!"
"With such chaos happening frequently, if the Southern Barbarians have other ideas, Daqian will be in chaos! How can the people live and work in peace and contentment? Then the lives of all people will inevitably be ruined!"
"Letting you marry a Nanman is a good thing for you and the people of the world!"
"You talk about doing this and that for the people every day at home. Is it possible that you are just paying lip service?"
After finishing speaking, Jin Changge's face suddenly turned pale, and her voice trembled:
"But...I really..."
Before he finished speaking, Prince Qing narrowed his eyes and interrupted:
"You have to remember! You are the daughter of my King Qing, not a commoner. If you really want to serve the people of the world, then marry the Nanman and do something practical for the people of the world!"
"Public or private, you should marry a Nanman!"
Jin Changge was speechless after what she said. She wanted to speak out to argue, but she was speechless for a moment.
As his father said, marrying himself to the Southern Barbarians is indeed a good thing for the people of the world.
After all, the Nanman people are loyal to Daqian and cannot have any dissent, so the people will not be disturbed by the war.
only....
Was she really going to be married off to the Southern Barbarians like this and become the so-called wife of the Southern Barbarian King?
At this moment, Jin Changge's heart was spinning a thousand times, and his face became increasingly pale.
It is true that for the sake of peace in Daqian and to make the world less chaotic, even if I am unwilling to do so, what does it mean in front of the people in this world?
Jin Changge could no longer find a reason to say "no", but her heart dropped to the bottom, as if a stone was stuck in her chest, weighing her down so much that she couldn't breathe.
The hands were clasped together helplessly, and the fingertips were already cold.
At this time, King Qing stood up and said word by word:
"Daqian was devastated by war, and I don't know how many people died in the war. Isn't it rare that white-haired people send black-haired people away?"
"It took several years, but under the leadership of His Majesty, no, under the leadership of all of us in the Jin family, we have come to where we are today, and only then can Daqian be as prosperous as it is today!"
"How much effort do you think we have put in? Now we see that Daqian is in trouble again. Fusang rebels, Qin Ze rebels, these people have poisoned so many people, and the people are living in dire straits!"
"Can you turn a blind eye? If your mother was still alive, she would definitely say the same thing as me."
"Speak for yourself, will you marry or not?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Prince Qing looked straight at Jin Changge with his stern eyes.
Looking at his father's sharp eyes, Jin Changge opened his mouth, and it took him a long while to tremble and utter a single word.
"marry."
After receiving the answer, Prince Qing's expression softened slightly. Seeing that his daughter's face was pale, he walked to Jin Changge, patted her on the shoulder and said:
"Yongning, my father knows what you are thinking. You have been in the capital since you were a child and have never traveled far. You have never shown disdain towards men. Naturally, you are afraid of getting married."
"But you don't have to worry too much. You are my daughter, and as a father, I will naturally think about you. As the princess, you represent my Daqian royal family. Marrying Wu Kui is his blessing. He I don’t dare to slack off on you.”
"If you suffer even a little bit of grievance in Nanman, just tell me and see if I don't give this Wukui any shame! Haha."
Jin Changge no longer cared about these words. She bit her lip and forced a smile. She said:
"Dad, then... then, when will I get married?" Jin Changge's voice trembled badly.
Prince Qing squinted his eyes and thought in his heart.
Before the Southern Barbarians conquered the Northern Liang, they would definitely not be able to let their daughters marry.
After all, there is no merit, so what's the use of marrying Yongning?
The southern barbarians are also far away from Beiliang. These barbarians have strong bodies and are different from ordinary large-scale soldiers. When they set out for the expedition, they asked the cities along the way to prepare food, grass and fast horses for them to rush all the way to Beiliang. , that will still take about a month.
Although it requires providing them with these logistical assistance, it is worth it.
After all, the reason why they chose to use force to send the Southern Barbarians to attack Beiliang was also to split the Southern Barbarians' power into two.
If soldiers and horses are gathered together in one place, if the soldiers and horses are strong in the future, disaster will inevitably occur.
This trip is going to Beiliang. The southern barbarians will have to send out a large number of soldiers and horses. It will not be a bad thing to let them station in Beiliang in the future. As long as they disperse, it will be much easier to rule in the future.
Of course, since he chose to let his daughter marry the Nanman, he would not just send her to the Nanman alone.
After all, Yongning was a member of the Jin family, and he knew the general situation. When he got married, he brought some of his own people there. As time went by, he slowly assimilated these barbarians from within and allowed them to be used for his own purposes. They would also become a fighting force in the future.
Thinking of this, Prince Qing smiled lightly and said, "Don't worry, it may still take a few months."
"What? Your father said this today, and you are anxious?"
"That Wukui I have seen is a tall, powerful man. Although his appearance is not very good, he is also a hero. You said at the beginning that you would never choose anyone who can't beat you as your husband, haha. "
"This Wu Kui, you are definitely no match for him."
Hearing this answer, Jin Changge bit the corner of his lip and sighed in his heart.
"Yongning, don't think too much. It's a good time to stay at home during this period. When you get married, your father will make your wedding a success! Haha."
Listening to his father's laughter, Jin Changsong pinched his palms tightly with his fingers and couldn't say another word.
