[Comprehensive] The Giant of the Red Chamber

Sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai, the emperor easily waited for the fish that voluntarily took the bait, secretly happy in his heart, but put on a gesture of indifference on his face, and did not take Nangong Yan into his eyes at all.

"Gu heard that Princess Zhaohe is of the right age, and she is currently choosing a husband. Today, she came here to ask the Emperor Daqi for marriage. Nanjiang is willing to marry the two surnames. From now on, there will be no more wars, and the prosperity of the world will benefit the people of the two dynasties. .”

"The son of Nangong's words are wrong. Daqi has strong soldiers and horses, no strong enemies outside, and the ability to educate and rule the people. The people live and work in peace and contentment. They don't pick up things on the road, so naturally they are not afraid of war. Just like the Beimu back then, when he was hungry, Always thinking of grabbing other people's things, bloodthirsty, extremely barbaric. But after becoming Daqi's vassal, His Majesty is merciful and treats them equally. Now under Daqi's governance, everyone can have enough food and clothing, and they can also share with Daqi Qi has been trading, and these years have been surplus every year. Now they are not happy to let them burn, kill and plunder." The prince opened his mouth first with a smile.

Is this implying that Nangong Yan and Da Qi are not afraid of southern Xinjiang at all, and will rely on marriage to achieve peaceful purposes?Beimu, the number one enemy back then, is now subdued, not to mention your sparsely populated southern Xinjiang, you are not even an enemy in the eyes of Da Qi.If you are sensible and recognize the reality as soon as possible, you will naturally be able to drink soup and eat meat like Beifan. This is the way to create a prosperous world together.If you don't know the situation, you will be wiped out every minute, and it will be difficult to say what position is good at that time.Although His Majesty can be merciful once, there is no guarantee that there will be a second time.

As soon as these words came out, Nangong Yan's face darkened a little, but the crown prince changed his subject: "If you say that the relationship between Daqi and Southern Xinjiang is not as good as that with Northern Fan, although there have been many frictions in the borderlands these years, they are all considered It's a small fight, and it's right for the soldiers to train, so as not to be too comfortable and lose the bloodiness that the soldiers should have. This time, Nangong Shizi came to exchange and study with the Daqi scholars. Further plans."

"Naturally, Nanjiang never intended to offend, and everything he said and did was for the sake of the people. Presumably, this is also the principle adhered to by Emperor Daqi." Nan Gongyan's face improved a little, implying that Nanjiang is not a soft persimmon. Bullying, the wars in the past were also to protect the people and defend the integrity of the southern border territory, not for aggression.Although these years have always been under the deterrence of artillery, Daqi has never really taken large-scale actions. mean.Unlike the Northern Fan who had a history of deep hatred, there were relatively fewer conflicts between Daqi and Southern Xinjiang.

They are all smart people, so they naturally understand that Da Qi is showing that if the southern border voluntarily obeys, the living status will be much better than that of the northern domain, and the benefits will naturally be more.The prince suppressed first and then raised, firmly occupying the dominant position from time to time.The enemy is strong and we are weak, Nangong Yan can't turn the situation around even if his tongue shines brightly, so he can only suffer aggrievedly.

The emperor, who had seen enough drama, opened his mouth at this time: "A king should put the people first. The son of Nangong cares about the people. He is the blessing of the southern border and the people. If the son is so talented, if he is recruited as a son-in-law, I am very happy. It’s just that the mountains in southern Xinjiang are high and the water is long. Showa was weak since he was a child, and it was difficult for him to adapt to the climate in the distance. My heart aches. The climate in southern Xinjiang is even more different from that of the capital, and the Showa era may be even more difficult to adapt to. If I choose a woman from the clan who is both talented and beautiful, and in good health, canonize her as a princess, and marry Nanjiang with two surnames, What do you think, Your Majesty?" The emperor who opened his eyes and told nonsense didn't take a breath, and Daiyu, who was strong enough to kill a cow, suddenly turned into a delicate flower who panted every three steps and coughed every five steps.

The emperor said the truth, and he looked like he loved his precious daughter, and he and the prince sang bad faces and the other bad faces, and cooperated with each other tacitly.In fact, these words were also for the purpose of testing Nangong Yan, to see how much he wanted to marry Showa. The emperor naturally hoped that the higher the better, the higher his initiative, the more he could obtain.

In this way, Nangong Yan naturally refused to agree, he came here to marry his sweetheart, how could he marry other women.I'm worried that if I don't explain it clearly, it will be bad for Emperor Daqi to mess up the mandarin ducks according to his own wishes.As for what Emperor Daqi said about being weak and sickly, even though the two meetings were a quick glance, it can be seen that his complexion is rosy, his breathing is orderly, and he does not look like a weak person.Mostly it was a hidden illness, or it was an excuse deliberately made by the Emperor Daqi who was reluctant to marry the princess far away.Nangong Yan believed that it was the latter, even if it was the former, there are many secret medicines that are not handed down in the Southern Border Good Medicine, which can alleviate some hidden diseases.

So he said with a bit of embarrassment: "To tell you the truth, when I went to the Yuelao Temple to offer incense a few days ago, I ran into a woman who offered incense together. She was the Princess of Zhaohe. Just now, for the sake of the princess’s reputation, Gu did not mention this matter, and never wanted the emperor to misunderstand her.”

"Meeting in Yuelao Temple by chance, so it is fate." The emperor looked interested, and then regretted. "This princess of mine has been favored by me like a pearl since she was a child. I can't stand her being too far away from me. The princess mansion is given to the edge of the imperial city. I just want to see her from time to time even if we get married. It's a pity for this good marriage."

Before Nangongyan could speak, the prince cut off the conversation first, and sang again with a red face, "Senior Nangong, to tell you the truth, my younger sister has been pampered by the emperor since she was born, and she is afraid of dying if she holds it in her mouth." Hold it in your hand for fear of falling. This time, the emperor has decided to choose a son-in-law from among the young talents in Daqi. He must choose a son-in-law who can pamper Zhaohe, let Zhaohe, and treasure Zhaohe. If the son-in-law A few days ago, we had to discuss it, but now everyone in the capital knows about the choice of son-in-law, and every family is making preparations, so it is really difficult to explain to each family if we cancel it hastily." The prince looked embarrassed.

As soon as the words came out, Nangong Yan couldn't say anything before he opened his mouth. Originally, he wanted to throw some chips out first, so as to delay the selection of the son-in-law first, and then make the next step.As a result, the father and son had an old fox and a young fox, and they didn't pick up on each other at all.The two pretended to be confused, pretending to be ignorant, but they didn't talk about bargaining chips, as if they were simply helping their daughter and sister choose a good husband-in-law.After this operation, Nangong Yan, who has always been mild-tempered, couldn't help but get angry, but he still had to hold back.

"Okay, the son of Nangong is sincere, and the matter has come to an end. If the sons come to participate in the competition three days later, the top ten sons will be left at that time, and Zhaohe will personally select the son-in-law from them. The son of Nangong is a dragon and a phoenix, I believe it will be settled." If you can be among them, if you have a real destiny with Showa, you will naturally have a good relationship." The rules set by the emperor, an old fox, are full of tricks, and he will be elected as the son-in-law without doing anything. The possibility of the beauty returning.Pick out ten people first, and there is still a lot of room for maneuvering who will be chosen at that time.If Nangong Yanzhen wants to get what he wants, he still has to pay a bargaining chip. What kind of fate, fate also has to be at the right time, place and people.

In this way, Nangong Yan's only chance is to participate in the "Husband Selection Contest", otherwise the Emperor has already made it very clear before that he would not consider such a distant consort.

"As expected of a person who can be an emperor, he has a lot of heart. Nangongyan alone can't beat two foxes, big and small." 738 watched with great interest, and did not forget to comment.

"However, little Rong'er, you don't have to worry about choosing a son-in-law now. Even if Nangong Yan doesn't succeed, there will always be a son-in-law after the grand princess husband-selection contest is over. I really want the three days to pass quickly!" Can't wait to watch the lively 738.

"Even if Nangongyan is not good at everything, the emperor will probably find a way to put him in the top ten. Whether he can successfully squeeze out the other nine depends on how much Nangongyan is willing to pay." Jiang Yingrong shook her head, feeling a little sympathetic, it was not easy for this daughter-in-law to marry.Not only do you have to pass five levels and kill six generals, but you also need to give a generous "betrothal gift". You have to hold on, Mr. Nangong, and you must not fall down.
