After the marriage, the sick and weak husband fell off the horse

36. Princess Liyang sends a marriage proposal

Nowadays, the emperor's heirs are not abundant, so let's ignore the prince for now. Except for Liyang, there are only two other princesses who are born from concubines.

but……

They all got married early, and Liyang was supposed to get married years ago.

However, her consort suddenly fell ill before the marriage. The queen was reluctant to let her daughter marry someone who was sick, so the marriage had to be abandoned.

The queen originally planned to choose another consort for her daughter to marry after the new year, but who could have expected that Qinger's man would suddenly ask to marry the princess? !
The queen couldn't hold on to the dignified smile on her face.

She was Liyang's biological mother, how could she bear to let her pampered daughter go to a bitter and cold place like Qing'er?

She quickly looked at the emperor, fearing that he would agree.

The emperor declined politely. Liyang was also his daughter. How could he push his daughter into a pit of fire?
"It is my wish to marry your country, but if I want to marry a princess, I am unable to do so."

"Several of the princesses under my knees have already been married. How can I be your darling?"

"How about this, how about I choose a noble girl from my clan to marry your khan tomorrow?"

Qing Geer's marriage proposal was well prepared. How could he be fooled by the emperor's few words?

He said bluntly, "All the princesses are married, but I heard that Princess Liyang is not betrothed to anyone else, so why not let Princess Liyang marry Qingger."

After he finished speaking, he bowed to the emperor and said, "This is also what the Khan meant. Please fulfill it, Emperor Chu."

A trace of disgust flashed in the emperor's eyes. Did these barbarians actually bully them?

Are a bunch of barbarians worthy of marrying his princess?

He was about to refuse, but he heard envoy Qing Geer say, "If the Emperor of Chu is unwilling to marry the princess to us, we will have no choice but to accept the princess from Dasheng."

The emperor was shocked. When did Qing Geer get involved with Sheng Guo?

If Qing Geer is really allowed to marry the princess of the Sheng Kingdom, wouldn't it be a disaster for the country to be destroyed if Da Sheng and Qing Geer attack from both sides and attack their Chu State at the same time?

But if they surrender to Qing Geer like this, where is the dignity of their great Chu?
The emperor narrowed his eyes and said, "Are you threatening me?"

Qing Geer's envoy lowered his head and said, "I don't dare, but I have heard for a long time that the princesses of the Central Plains countries are beautiful and virtuous. If we can get the princess to be our assistant, we will definitely keep Qing Geer safe."

"But if the Emperor of Chu refuses to marry the princess to Qing'er, we will have no choice but to accept Princess Sheng."

This year, Chu State just fought a war with its neighboring country, but won.

However, their financial resources, military strength and food have also been depleted, and they will definitely not be able to withstand the impact of another war.

What's more, it is still a prosperous country with strong national power. If the Xia Kingdom gets involved again at that time.

Then they, Dachu, will become sheep shared by wolves.

The Queen and the Emperor have slept together for many years and know a lot about the Emperor's temperament.

Looking at the emperor's expression, she knew that he was shaken.

But why should a woman take on important national affairs?
Why did she have to sacrifice her daughter?
Liyang cried and crawled out of his position, knelt in the hall and kowtowed.

"Father, please don't send me to get married."

"I don't want to marry Qinger!"

"Father, I will die in a place like that!"

A flash of unbearability flashed in Xie Chunchao's eyes, Liyang was too impulsive.

If she were Liyang, she would never come out and say such words when Qing Geer proposed.

Isn't this a clear sign of disdain for Qingger and a slap in Qingger's face?
What if she really gets married in the future?
Besides...

No need to worry, she will definitely marry Qinger.

"Shut up!" The emperor said sternly, "You are a princess after all. How can you be so arrogant and shouting and crying?!" "Someone, pull Liyang down."

The guards stationed on both sides heard the words and pulled the crying Princess Liyang down.

Liyang's cries gradually weakened until they could no longer be heard.

Qinger's envoy obviously had a bit of anger on his face, and said coldly,

"Since the Princess of Chu doesn't want to marry, then forget it."

"We have a princess from Sheng Kingdom to marry."

How could the emperor not hear the anger in their voices? After thinking about it for a while, he had already made a ruthless decision.

"The messenger must not be angry."

"Daughters are delicate and will inevitably miss home and fall in love with their family."

"Hey, Liyang is also spoiled by me, so he cried out of excitement. It's definitely not against Qing Geer."

"Speaking of which, our Chu State and Qinger Fang have been good neighbors for many years, and it is natural for our two families to marry together."

Qing Geer's envoy flashed a hint of pride in his eyes and asked, "This is natural, otherwise we would not have come to Chu State here, but directly accepted Sheng State's kindness."

"Liyang is the only daughter of the queen and I."

Qing Geer seemed to understand the implication of the emperor's words and said bluntly, "If the emperor is willing to marry Princess Liyang to Qing Geer."

"We are willing to offer you thousands of horses of blood, hundreds of beauties, and hundreds of boxes of gems to show our sincerity."

The emperor was not very interested in beauties or gems. The only thing he thought about was Qing Geer's BMW.

Due to the terrain of Qing'er, the horses there are all very powerful and fast, and one horse is worth as much as a hundred horses from Chu.

If the Chu army can obtain these [-] horses, their strength will surely rise to the next level.

"Okay!" The emperor laughed heartily, raised his wine glass, and said, "I wish the friendship between Da Chu and Qing Geer will last forever."

All the ministers raised their glasses and said, "I wish the friendship between Da Chu and Qing Geer will last forever."

Xie Chunchao just felt sad. It was true that she and Liyang were at odds, but it was also true that they grew up together.

Princesses with golden branches and jade leaves will also be sold as commodities to neighboring countries.

If the proud and arrogant Liyang knew that his father was so happy to sell her just for ten thousand horses of sweat and blood, he would probably be heartbroken.

The King of Liao looked unhappy. He was a rough man and could not stand such cowardly behavior.

If he said, it would be better to attack Qinger directly and beat them so that they would never dare to take the lead!
Princess Liao firmly held King Liao's hand and shook her head slightly.

King Liao glanced at Princess Liao, suppressed his anger, raised his head and drank the wine in one gulp.

Lin Jingrong chuckled, "Today I give up the princess, tomorrow I give up a city, and the next day I'm afraid I will have to pay for the entire country."

Lin Jingrong's voice was very low, so no one could hear him except Xie Chunchao.

She turned around in surprise. Although she did not agree with the emperor's actions, as a Chu State person and a Chu State royal family.

She did not think that Da Chu would perish in the future.

"What are you talking about? How could the Chu Kingdom perish?"

"Although the emperor's move is indeed weak and not strong enough, if he really refuses Qing Geer's marriage request and allows Qing Geer to form an alliance with Sheng State, our Chu State will be in real danger and face the threat of destruction."

"Qing'er and Dasheng are separated by the Chu Kingdom. Can they really form a reliable alliance because of a princess?"

"Even if it is possible, it is not up to us to decide whether the princess can reach Qingger safely or not?"
