A long time after Feng Ruozhao and Shen Meizhuang left Jingren Palace, Yi Xiu was still sitting there, as if he had made up his mind to go to the Yangxin Palace.

"Your Majesty, the Queen is here and waiting outside the door."

Listening to what Su Peisheng said, Yinzhen raised his head and looked up in frustration, wondering what Yi Xiu was doing here at this time, and finally asked Su Peisheng to call the person in.

"My concubine pays your respects to the Emperor."

"Get up, the Queen is here this time..."

"Your Majesty, I'm here for the marriage of Princess Chaogui. Princess Chaogui is now the right age and is the most suitable candidate. But I heard that Yingge Khan is already old and can be the princess's grandfather. If If we really marry off the princess in this matter, I'm afraid those border tribes will look down on our Qing Dynasty in the future.

Moreover, I heard that there is a custom in Zhungeer. If the Khan dies suddenly, his concubine will marry the new Khan. If our princess gets married not long ago, and the character Khan dies suddenly, I am afraid that our Qing Dynasty The legitimate princess has long been reduced from the title of princess to someone else’s concubine. When the time comes, should we fight or not?

If we talk about fighting, our princess is already married. Because of customs, I'm afraid they will say that our Qing Dynasty is dishonest. But if we don't fight, then in the future those border tribes will think that our Qing Dynasty is easy to bully, and they will become The move threatens us. "

After Yi Xiu finished speaking, Yi Xiu did not answer for a long time, but looked at Yi Xiu with squinted eyes. However, Yi Xiu's words were reasonable. If there was no suitable candidate to lead the army, how could he possibly Agreeing to such a request, if Nian Gengyao goes, I am afraid that his achievements will be even greater.

"It's not like I don't know. It's just that the current situation is not suitable for war. Since the Queen says so, is there any good solution?"

Yixiu was overjoyed when he heard what Yinzhen said. He seemed to be in a good mood, so he hurriedly answered.

"Your Majesty, why don't you delay this matter for a month or two, and then take this opportunity to inquire about Inge Khan's current physical condition. If his health is about to fail, when the new Khan succeeds to the throne, our princess will marry him She is still the queen of the princess, and the new Khan must be young, so he and our princess will have a good relationship."

After hearing this, Yinzhen did not answer, but said that he would think about it carefully, and then asked Yixiu to go back.

Naturally, Yi Xiu knew that there was no room for change in this matter, but when he thought about Princess Chaogui, he couldn't help but think of the infant Qing Huan. What would she do if she also embarked on the road to marriage in the future? .

As soon as Yi Xiu returned to Jingren Palace, he saw Princess Chaogui standing at the door waiting. He couldn't help being shocked. He was looking for Yinzhen, completely forgetting that in his previous life, Princess Chaogui came to cry today. Something happened.

"Greetings to the royal sister-in-law."

"Get up and go in and talk."

Yi Xiu looked at the wonderful person in front of him and couldn't help but feel a little sorry for her.

"Royal sister-in-law."

After the two of them entered, Yi Xiu sat down and Princess Chaogui knelt down directly.

"You should get up first. I know why you came here this time."

At Yi Xiu's signal, Jianqiu hurriedly stepped forward to help Princess Chaogui up and let her sit down again.

"You come here this time probably because you want me to persuade the emperor to withdraw from asking you to get married, right?"

"Imperial sister-in-law, I don't understand. There are so many capable warriors in our Qing Dynasty, why do we use the marriage of women as the basis for peace? Is it true that the princess of the Tian family is only used for marriage? Just like objects, any Human decoration?”

Chao Gei, who was sitting aside, was extremely uncomfortable. She was originally not favored in the palace, because her biological mother was just an unfavored nobleman. Naturally, she was not favored as well, and the slaves in the harem were used to paying homage to her. High and low, she no longer remembers how much she suffered since she was a child. Later, when Emperor Kangxi passed away, she was taken to Shoukang Palace by Wu Yachengbi to raise her and her life became better. Now, not long after the good days, she will marry far away. Zhun Geer, everyone wanted her to come and go as soon as she was called, but no one ever asked her if she was willing. How could she swallow this tone of voice?

"shut up!"

Yi Xiu listened to Princess Chaogui's words becoming more and more erratic, and hurriedly interrupted to avoid being overheard by anyone interested and then passed on to Yinzhen's ears.

Chao Gui knew she had said the wrong thing and quickly shut her mouth, but the tears in her eyes could not deceive others. She must be feeling desperate now.

"I know the grievances you feel, and I don't want you to get married. You are the emperor's youngest sister, and the emperor is reluctant to part with you. But the emperor is the emperor, and he has to consider the people. If we are going to fight at this time, , Not to mention whether we can win or not, even if we fight, no one can lead the troops in the war. I know what you are thinking, but, princess, have you ever heard of the saying that superior merit surpasses the master?"

"My dear sister, I understand, but is there really no room for change?"

Princess Chaogui had lived in the harem for many years and was forced to grow up. How could she not understand what Yi Xiu meant? Yes, she also knew something about Nian Gengyao's outstanding military achievements. If he was allowed to go again, she was afraid that the whole country would be in trouble. Qing Zhen is about to change her surname to Nian, but she still refuses to give up and holds on to her last glimmer of hope.

Yi Xiu shook his head, and the light in Princess Chao Gei's eyes dimmed instantly, and she just sat on the stool blankly.

"I have inquired that Yingge Khan is old and not in good health. What should you do if Yingge Khan dies suddenly not long after you get married?"

"The worst thing is to be buried in a grave."

Listening to Yi Xiu's words, Princess Chao Gui shook her head, thinking that the worst case could only be a life.

"You are thinking too simply. According to Zhungeer custom, if the old khan passes away, the new khan who succeeds can take the old khan's concubine as a concubine."

"What! What! This!"

Chao Gui stood up immediately after hearing this. It was obvious that she was frightened. It was obvious that the princess in the deep palace did not know about her son marrying her stepmother.

"Sister-in-law, please save my sister. If this is really going to happen, it would be better for me to die!"

"I have tried my best to persuade the emperor to postpone your wedding for a month or two. I just pray that Inge Khan can live up to expectations for a while, so that even if you are married, you will still be marrying the new Khan who succeeds the throne. , and you are the best solution, now it depends on whether the emperor will agree or not."

Chao Gei sat on the stool in despair. She had already made preparations for the marriage before she came, but she didn't want to be manipulated like this. She also wanted to see if there was still hope of not getting married. Now she knew Zhun Ge's According to custom, it can only be said that her imperial sister-in-law Yi Xiu has tried her best. This is the best way now.

"My dear sister, thank you very much, Sister-in-law."

With the current situation, Princess Chaogui also understood that marriage was the only way for her. She knelt on the ground and bowed to Yi Xiu before leaving Jingren Palace.

Looking at Princess Chao Gei's retreating figure, Yi Xiu felt very uncomfortable. At the moment, he just hoped that Yinzhen could really consider what she said.
