The State of Yu has not been at peace recently. First, Emperor Yu asked Emperor Qi to find a good marriage for his eldest son Han Qianshang who is far away in Qi State. The eldest son of Guodi promised a male wife!

It is said that the husband and wife are an unfavored concubine in the prime minister's residence of Qiguo. The concubine works harder in studying and studying than the concubine, and is much better than the concubine in terms of knowledge.

Qi Huang mentioned in the court hall that he wanted to marry Han Qianshang, but Prime Minister Qi Guo took the initiative to stand up and said that he wanted to marry Han Qianshang by marriage, and assigned his concubine to him.

Han Qianshang was furious, but he could only bear it silently. He could ignore the royal family of Yu State, or his mother and younger brother in Yu State, so he could only silently accept the marriage.

This matter was so absurd that it spread to the ears of everyone in Yu's palace.

Han Qianzhui just passed his birthday this year.

In the state of Yu, men can marry wives and concubines at the age of 17. The fifth prince is one year younger than Han Qianzhui. On the day of the fifth prince’s 17th birthday, Emperor Yu promised to find him a good marriage. On the day of his birthday, he asked Emperor Yu to marry the daughter of the Minister of the Ministry of Officials to the Fifth Prince, but Emperor Yu graciously agreed.

Concubine Xiao Huang was not far behind, she told Yu Huang that Princess Huayang admired General Song Shiyu, and begged Yu Huang to marry Princess Huayang and Song Shiyu, Yu Huang only said that he thought about it, and did not refuse.

When Lan Luo learned that Imperial Concubine Xiao was asking for a marriage gift for Princess Huayang to Song Shiyu, she was stunned and ran all the way back to Qianyue Palace.

But when she arrived at Qianyue Palace, Lan Luo looked at the girl who was sitting on the verandah, leaning against the beauty and lowering her head to read the papers. She didn't dare to tell Han Qianzhui the news again.

Lan Yinglanluo, as Han Qianzhui's confidant, naturally knew that their princess was in love with General Song Shiyu, but because she was concerned that the two of them were actually men, even a wealthy family like the Song family had no choice but to marry a wife. Taking a daughter of a well-matched family, how can one look at a prince who is not favored and raised as a daughter?

Today's Han Qianzhui has already opened his face.His appearance followed his mother, Su Chengyi, who was a well-known beauty in Yu State back then.

Although Han Qianzhui was a man, his appearance was unparalleled, with starry eyes and bright teeth, and a slender figure, so he would not be recognized as a man among the crowd of daughters.

Han Qianzhui was reading a book when suddenly a gust of cold wind blew, he shivered for a while, and then coughed non-stop.

Lan Luo was startled, and hurried to Han Qianzhui, stroked his back lightly, and helped him into the house.

Lan Luo supported Han Qianzhui, and she could clearly feel how thin and thin the back was under her palms, even weaker than ordinary women.

This was caused by something wrong with Han Qianzhui after falling into the water in winter.

Physician Ding said that it is impossible for Han Qianzhui to live past 30 years old. I often wake up from nightmares at night and have trouble breathing.

Lan Yinglanluo was very worried about Han Qianzhui's body, but Han Qianzhui himself didn't care about it. He should eat and sleep every day, and take medicine when he was sick, as if he didn't worry about his body at all.

"Princess, although it's already spring, you still don't go outside to blow the wind. You are in poor health. If you catch a cold, you will suffer again." Lan Luo glanced at Lan Ying, who was carrying the black soup, and turned towards her. She winked for a while, implying that she also came to persuade Han Qianzhui.

Lan Ying smiled helplessly. She put the soup on the table and squatted beside Han Qianzhui. For the past three years, she had been amazed by Han Qianzhui's appearance. She looked up at Han Qianzhui's dark eyes , Said: "Princess, Lan Luo is right, you have to take good care of yourself to see the empress and the eldest prince."

"Lan Ying." Han Qianzhui called softly. During the five years of confinement in Qianyue Palace, Emperor Yu had never visited Han Qianzhui once, and he gradually became bolder, speaking with his original voice in front of Lan Yinglanluo.

"Lan Ying, I'm tired, don't say these words anymore, okay?" Han Qianzhui looked a little tired, his eyes drooped, his dark eyes were deep and deep, and he couldn't see the emotions clearly, "They said... ...Did Emperor Father entrust Qihuang to choose a husband and wife for my brother?"

Lan Ying didn't want to go into too much detail about this matter, but the fast-talking Lan Luo opened her mouth and finished everything: "Yes, princess, the wedding was completed last month. An unfavored concubine, his mother died early, but he studied hard and was very knowledgeable, but unfortunately he was not valued in the family, and was pushed out by his father to marry someone to please Emperor Qi, otherwise he would still be able to obtain fame of."

Originally, Han Qianzhui was a little displeased when he heard that his brother married a man, but when he heard Lan Luo say that the man was not favored by his family, he could have a bright future, but was forced by his father to marry a man, ruining his official career. For a while, he felt more distressed about his male sister-in-law.

"They're all poor people, alas..." Han Qianzhui sighed faintly.

Lan Ying gave Lan Luo a sad look, as if she was blaming her for saying such things in front of the princess.

In order to prevent Han Qianzhui from thinking wildly, Lan Ying hurriedly talked about the things that have given Emperor Yu a headache recently: "Princess, don't listen to what Lan Luo said, the slave has heard something these days, do you want to listen? "

"What's the matter?" Han Qian became interested, and slightly raised his eyes to look at Lan Ying.

"This year, the harvest in Yu State was not good, but the emperor increased the tax again. The people in the frontier had a hard time, and they frequently stole food from the people on the border of Yan State in the northern desert. As a result, Emperor Yan was angered, and Emperor Yan sent troops to capture several seats in the border area of ​​Yu State. It’s ironic to say that when the soldiers of the Yan State attacked the city, the people of the Yu State left the city and surrendered, saying that it was... that they could no longer bear such a heavy distribution of taxes and corvees.”

Han Qianzui was stunned for a moment when he heard the words. This matter sounds interesting, but it is interesting and after careful analysis, some conclusions can be drawn.

"Has the tax and corvee service in our Yu State become so serious?" Han Qianzhui asked, frowning.

Lan Ying pouted, she only heard the generalizations about these things, and she didn't know the details.The people in Qianyue Palace are all orphans and have no relatives or friends outside the palace. They are isolated from the outside of the palace and don't know the outside situation. Many interesting things are told by others.

"Your servant doesn't know either." Lan Ying shook her head and said.

Han Qianzhui didn't ask any more questions, but felt sorry for the people of Yu State, who had fallen to the point of surrendering to the enemy country to avoid taxation and corvee.

After a few days, the female officials of Ningshou Palace don't come to Qianyue Palace very often. The Empress Dowager Su can only control the House of Internal Affairs and treat people outside of Qianyue Palace seriously. Only Shen Zhaoyuan occasionally secretly sends someone to give him something at night. , to prevent him from being bored in Qianyue Palace.

That night, for the first time ever, Emperor Yu called Eunuch Zhao An to invite Han Qianzhui to the Hall of Mental Cultivation for a talk, and also brought a blue men's suit for him to dress up and put on.

Lan Yinglanluo was very worried, for fear that Emperor Yu had something bad in mind, but Han Qianzhui knew that it must be the father who raised him as his daughter for 18 years and suddenly wanted to meet him as the prince. It has something to do with the affairs of the Yan Kingdom in Beimo.

Han Qianzhui had never worn men's clothing since he was born, and in the end Xiaoquanzi served Han Qianzhui to dress neatly. Surrounded by eunuchs and imperial guards, he made a sedan chair for the first time and came to the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

"I pay homage to my father." Han Qianzhui, who was dressed in men's clothes, didn't know what kind of gift he should give to Emperor Yu. He stood there for a while before half-kneeling on the ground and bowed to the emperor.

Emperor Yu was approving memorials in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, and the person studying ink for him beside the desk was none other than Concubine Xiao Huang, who was the most beloved of the Sixth Palace.

"Well, here we come." Emperor Yu raised his head and glanced at Han Qianzhui. It was the first time he saw his son in men's clothes, and he was a little surprised for a while. He cleared his throat and pointed to the chair beside him. ,"sit down."

Han Qianzhui sat down in response, neither humble nor overbearing. After sitting down, he looked at Emperor Yu, and asked in his original male voice, "What do you want to tell my father to call my minister late at night?"

Emperor Yu didn't speak, but Concubine Xiao Huanggui who was on the side spoke first: "Sui Sui, it's like this, your father has been troubled by border wars recently, and can't sleep at night. As his son, you are the second son of the royal family of Yu Kingdom. , you always have to solve problems for your father."

Hearing this, Han Qianzhui thought it was extremely ridiculous. He curled the corners of his mouth slightly, pretending to be astonished, and his voice changed into a female voice again: "What? Am I the son of the emperor? The imperial concubine, the imperial concubine, the national teacher To say that my son is in bad luck, only a daughter can suppress my son's evil spirit, you are going against God's will by saying that!"

"Presumptuous!" Yu Huang only felt a burst of burning on his face, he shouted, and even felt that he should have thrown Han Qianzhui into the well or buried him alive, "now that the country of Yu is in trouble, if you don't help I have to help too! Otherwise, how can I be worthy of Yu Guo, who gave birth to you and raised you!"

Han Qianzhui sneered secretly in his heart, and with a frightened look on his face, he said in a trembling voice, "But... But Emperor Father... Didn't Qiguo promise to help us? Why...won't you help us now? Let Qiguo Wouldn't it be good to help us fight against the country of Yan? What can a daughter's family do?"

"Han Qianzhui, Qiguo is in chaos now. Qihuang died, and Qiguo's princes and grandchildren are fighting for the throne. Now... we can only solve the problem by ourselves." Yuhuang let out a few deep breaths , he tried his best to suppress the anger in his chest, and talked to Han Qianzhui calmly.

Han Qianzhui was taken aback when he heard the words, and he gradually frowned, feeling that something was wrong.

Emperor Yu threw a bundle of sheepskin scrolls in front of Han Qianzhui, and said, "This is the letter of truce and marriage letter from the Kingdom of Yan. You can read it yourself."

Han Qianzhui's right eyelid kept twitching, and he felt more and more uneasy. He hesitated for a while, and finally picked up the thick sheepskin scroll from the ground with trembling hands, opened it and looked at it.

Those two are two sheepskin scrolls rolled together, Yan Guo usually uses sheepskin scrolls to write on formal occasions.

The sheepskin scroll said that the people on the frontiers of Yu State harassed the towns on the frontiers of Yan State. The way to understand the grievances between the two countries is to ask for the best-looking prince of Yu to marry the best-looking prince.

It would be an insult to any country to ask the royal family of a country to present a good-looking prince and relatives, and the selected prince would most likely choose to commit suicide or die in battle.

Han Qianzhui understood now that Emperor Yu actually wanted to dedicate himself to some holy son of Yan State in order to seek peace between the two countries.

Han Qianzhui's eyes turned red all of a sudden, he suddenly raised his head, waiting angrily for a man and a woman in front of him.

"Do you want me to marry you?" Han Qianzhui's voice changed back to the original, slightly hoarse, but with strong anger, "Father, do you still think I am your child!"

For some reason, Emperor Yu felt a little guilty. He coughed a few times, and said in a calm voice: "You are my second son! Didn't you read what Yan Guo said? The first son is the best, and the new king of Qi Kingdom has not yet been decided. Yu State is weak, if it does not attach itself to a big country, it will be annexed sooner or later! Do you want your mother and elder brother to die tragically at the hands of the enemy!"

Speaking of mother and elder brother, Han Qianzhui regained a little bit of reason. His eyes were red, and he stared at Concubine Xiao Huanggui and Emperor Yu angrily.

Concubine Xiao Huanggui said: "Sui Sui, you are the most handsome and handsome among our princes of the Yu Kingdom. After that, you will be your elder brother. If you don't go... then you have to let your elder brother go."

"Shut up!" Emperor Yu suddenly said harshly to Concubine Xiao Huang.

Concubine Xiao Huang was stunned for a moment, knowing that she had made a slip of the tongue, she hurriedly retreated, leaving Emperor Yu and Han Qianzhui alone in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, facing each other in silence.

After a long time, Emperor Yu broke the silence: "Emperor Xiao's words just now made sense. You and your elder brother must go to the country of Yan to marry each other. The country of Yan is so powerful that even Qi country can't move him a bit. It would be a good marriage for you to marry into the country of Yan."

Good marriage?

Han Qianzhui laughed out loud, and he laughed louder and more presumptuously in front of Emperor Yu.

"Father, have you ever heard that the Holy Son of Yan Kingdom marries a wife every three years, and the whereabouts of each wife are unknown?" Han Qianzhui asked with a sneer, and now he is no longer afraid of Emperor Yu.

A look of dodge flashed in Yuhuang's eyes, he coughed a few times, and said: "That's just a rumor, how can people live for thousands or hundreds of years."

"But what if it's true?" Han Qian chased after him incessantly.

Emperor Yu stopped talking, and Han Qianzhui shook his head mockingly, with a bitter smile on his lips.

Han Qianzui paused, a thought crossed his mind, he slowly raised the corner of his mouth, and then quickly lowered it, with a sad expression on his face.

"Father, if my son is willing to marry me, can you fulfill my three wishes?" Han Qian asked.

Emperor Yu stretched his brows and eyes, and asked, "What wish?"

"The first wish is that I want my mother and elder brother to return to the palace to take care of themselves. After all, you also said that the prince of Qiguo is vying for the throne. Now Qiguo is in danger, so...brother must come back." Han Qianzhui He said unhurriedly, "As for the empress mother, she left the palace to practice for the sake of my son. Now that my son is going to marry far away, it's time for the empress mother to come back. After all, the imperial grandmother misses her very much."

Emperor Yu frowned, he thought for a while, and when he thought it was feasible, he nodded and agreed to the first wish.

"Second wish, I hope that after marrying Qiguo, the queen mother and elder brother can live well in the palace, and the palace people of Qianyue Palace can be properly accommodated." Han Qianzhui continued.

This wish was also simple for Emperor Yu, so he agreed with a nod.

Han Qianzhui hooked the corners of his mouth, showed a bright smile, and expressed his third wish: "The third wish, I request that I thoroughly investigate the incident of my son falling into the water, and severely punish all those who participated in it according to the rules of the palace. people."

Speaking of this wish, Emperor Yu's expression turned ugly. He waved his hand and said, "This matter has been going on for too long. How can you investigate thoroughly? You can change it."

Han Qianzhui shook his head, his voice was as gentle as jade, and he sounded a little weak because of years of illness, but at this moment he was very firm and fearless: "Father, you and I know each other. You are omnipotent King Yu, why would you shrink back because this matter is too long?"

"Han Qianzhui. Don't go too far!" Emperor Yu became furious, "It's because I gave you face by changing your wish. Believe it or not, I will have your tendons cut off and sent to Yan Kingdom? Anyway, Yan Guosheng What the son wants is probably just a tool to vent! He doesn't care if you are okay or not."

"Really?" Han Qianzhui smiled, "Royal Father, you want the Kingdom of Yu to attach itself to the more powerful Kingdom of Yan. If you fulfill my son's wish, the son will remember that there is still a queen mother and elder brother in the palace, and will try every means Ingratiate yourself with the Holy Son, and do your best to benefit the country of Yu and your father."

Weird.

"Father, think about it carefully, my son...will lie to you." With a faint smile on Han Qianzhui's face, he got up and half-kneeled to salute, "My son will step back first, my father has thought about it, Please make a decision that will allow your minister to marry away with peace of mind."

After finishing speaking, Han Qianzhui slowly exited the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

After leaving the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Eunuch Zhao An prepared the palanquin and sent Han Qianzhui back to Qianyue Palace.

"Princess! You're back!" Lan Yinglanluo led the palace people from Qianyue Palace to greet her at the gate of the palace. They rushed forward and welcomed Han Qian back to Qianyue Palace.

Back at Qianyue Palace, Lan Yinglanluo had prepared hot water for Han Qianzhui to take a bath and rest.

Soaking in the warm bathroom, Han Qianzhui felt extremely refreshed, and felt that this was the happiest day he had ever remembered.

After bathing, Han Qianzhui told Lan Ying and Lan Luo about the matter, but both girls burst into tears on the spot.

Han Qianzhui held the hands of the two girls tightly, pondered for a moment, and said, "Lan Yinglanluo, I have already figured out a way out for you, if my royal father keeps his promise, then you still have Xiaocui and the others." Just follow my mother, I believe that my mother will treat you well."

Lan Yinglanluo kept shaking her head, they knelt at Han Qianzhui's feet, Lan Luo was out of breath from crying, and said in a hoarse voice: "No... this servant will not leave, this servant will die Follow the princess, how can the princess go to the country of Yan alone! Lan Ying stayed behind to take care of the empress, and the slaves followed the princess to the country of Yan!"

"I don't!" Lan Ying also cried and said, "The princess is going to the distant imperial capital of Yan Kingdom. How good is it that she doesn't have a caring person by her side, and the slaves are going too?"

The two fought back and forth, and they wanted to go to the country of Yan with Han Qianzhui. Han Qianzhui couldn't persuade Lan Yinglanluo to stay in the country of Yu, and finally agreed to the two of them to go with him.

Early the next morning, Eunuch Zhao An, the chief eunuch, issued an imperial decree to punish the fifth prince, Princess Huayang and the servants around them, and asked them to solemnly apologize to Han Qianzhui.

I don't know what Emperor Yu said to the fifth prince and Princess Huayang, which made the two people who hated Han Qianzhui go to Qianyue Palace to plead guilty.

Han Qianzhui was in a good mood, and he didn't say he didn't forgive Fifth Prince and Princess Huayang, and closed the gate of Qianyue Palace in front of them.

A few days later, the Fifth Prince and Princess Huayang were forced by the Emperor Yu to take the blame every day. Everyone inside and outside the palace knew that it was the two of them who caused Han Qian to fall into the water.

Han Qian chased the fifth prince and Princess Huayang for a few days, and finally agreed to marry Yan.

When the Yan State heard the news, it immediately returned the frontier city of the Yu State, and sent troops to the border to wait for the guard of honor to deliver the Prince He and the Prince, saying that the army would escort the Prince and the Prince to the imperial capital of the Yan State.

In order to allow Han Qianzhui to better fulfill his promise, Emperor Yu sent someone to take Queen Su Chengyi back to the palace early, and Qiguo also agreed to let Han Qianshang go back to Yuguo, and he is now on his way back home.

Knowing that the Empress returned to the palace and was currently living with the Empress Dowager in Ningshou Palace, Han Qianzhui trotted all the way to Ningshou Palace wearing the men's new clothes he just made.

He ran so out of breath that even Lan Yinglanluo almost missed him.

"Princess! Princess! Run slowly! Watch out for your body!" Lan Yinglano reminded Han Qianzhui after catching up.

Han Qianzhui nodded. He glanced at the Ningshou Palace in front of him. When he thought that his mother was inside, how could he calm down.

Han Qianzhui walked into Ningshou Palace cautiously, and asked the maid to inform, and then he saw a beautiful woman running out.

"Mother's queen!" Han Qianzhui has never met his mother's queen, Su Chengyi. After all, when he was a baby, Su Chengyi went out of the palace to practice in order to protect him, but the beautiful woman in front of him looked somewhat similar to him. Miss you deeply.

"Sui Sui! Is that you?" Su Chengyi looked much older, her hair had been mixed with a few strands of white hair, and her dark eyes were full of vicissitudes.

Empress Dowager Su saw everything outside the house through the window, she waved her hand and said to Ci Yuan: "Ci Yuan, take them to the side hall to rest, their mother and son need to be alone and have a good talk."

Su Chengyi and Han Qianzhui came to the side hall and sat down. Both of them had teary eyes, not knowing whether to cry or laugh.

"Sui Sui, mother misses you so much, misses your brother." Su Chengyi hugged Han Qianzhui tenderly. Mother and child were separated by 18 years. This was the second time she hugged her child, "Let mother see that you have suffered, It's all my mother's fault for leaving you alone in this palace, I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."

Hearing his mother's apology, Han Qianzhui couldn't bear it anymore. He threw himself into Su Chengyi's arms and burst into tears, venting all the grievances he had suffered in the past 18 years.

"Mother..." I really don't want to go to Yan Country, I don't want to get married, mother save me!help me!I am afraid!

Han Qianzhui's silent cry was not heard, he could only endure all this in silence, and only hoped that his mother and brother could get together in the palace and be cared for.

"My son also misses you very much. You look exactly like the one in my dream."
