Chapter 209 Penalty
"Grandfather!"

Seeing that she was being stared at by the emperor, Princess Roujia was shocked and burst into tears. She carefully pulled the prince's clothes and said in a low voice: "Father, my daughter doesn't like Xiao Sanlang, don't marry him." He, Father, save me..."

The crown prince naturally understands what is on the mind of Princess Roujia, isn't it because Wei Wuqi has suddenly recovered recently and returned to a normal person, so he still wants to marry Wei Wuqi!

Although Wei Wuqi is inexplicably good, and has been stupid for so many years, and has no future, the prince doesn't like it.But relatively speaking, Xiao Qian is not a good match either.

The current situation in the Northwest is unclear, and it is not known who will win the battle between Xiao Qian and King Zhenbei in the future?The crown prince is not as powerful as the emperor, so he can't guarantee that Xiao Qian will win, so naturally he is reluctant to let his daughter take risks.

And with the temper of the eighth princess, if she knew that the man she liked was given to Roujia, she would definitely hate the entire East Palace indiscriminately.

The prince thought for a moment, didn't dare to hesitate, and quickly got up and said: "Father, Xiao Qian is only 15 years old. It is too early for a man to propose marriage at this age. Even if he gets engaged first, it is easy to change. It is better to wait two years." Reconsideration."

Sitting high above, the emperor naturally saw the situation between the prince and his daughter clearly. Seeing that Princess Roujia was unwilling to marry Xiao Qian, and even voluntarily refused the marriage, the emperor was a little surprised.

But when he thought of the domineering of the eighth princess, the emperor thought that Princess Roujia was afraid of the eighth princess and didn't dare to rob her aunt for a man!At the moment, his mind turned to hating his daughter for losing face, and his anger towards Xiao Qian also subsided by three points.

Besides, what the crown prince said is right, Xiao Qian is only fifteen now, the marriage is indeed a bit early, why not wait another three to five years, by then not only the nine princesses and ten princesses will have reached the age of marriage, but there will also be girls of the right age in the clan , a wide range of options.

If Xiao Qian dared to evade at that time, he would be really arrogant, and there would be no need to stay.

Thinking of this, the emperor took a deep breath, his anger still remained, and he followed the prince's words: "Forget it, the prince's words are somewhat reasonable. However, Xiao Qian is indeed disrespectful to the royal family, so he can't do without punishment. Well, let's fine him a salary." In three years, go to clean the imperial tomb for a month, and leave immediately after the banquet without delay."

Xiao Qian served in the Northwest Army. Although there is a clear law that the feudal king is not allowed to support private soldiers, and the military pay of the feudal land is distributed by the imperial court, the imperial court has never paid out the money in the Northwest in full and on time.This three-year fine is the same as no fine, anyway, there is no such thing.

Sweeping the imperial mausoleum for a month means that Xiao Qian will spend a month on Beiwang Mountain in the suburbs of Beijing.In November, the roads in the Northwest are frozen and difficult to walk on. Xiao Qian's trip to Beijing this time will allow him to stay in the capital until October.Basically, when his punishment is over, he should go back to the northwest, cutting off his chance to contact any senior officials in the court.

But what is this punishment?

Those who should be contacted, Xiao Qian has already secretly sent someone to contact them, and those who should not be contacted, he had no intention of meeting them.Going to the imperial mausoleum in such a grand manner gave Xiao Qian a sense of cleanliness.

A lively state banquet ended with Xiao Qian being fined.Before leaving, King Wan wanted to talk to Xiao Qian, but Xiao Qian didn't give him a chance at all.Only let Azheluo pass on a sentence: "I just found a little girl and learned some lost ancient books from her mouth. My cousin hurriedly sent someone to follow that girl day and night, and even got murderous. mean?"

"Cousin is blaming the king! He has had his own ideas since he was a child, and he attaches great importance to what belongs to him. The matter of Xin Changning is something that the king has overstepped."

King Wan was silent for a long time after hearing this, and then he returned to the palace and said: "At first he didn't say anything, but this king thought that he trusted me and regarded him as a relative. Today, he openly talked to me about the eighth princess. The king is playing against the tune! He is determined to this point, and this king is no longer able to shake him, alas—”

He let out a long sigh, and ordered Mu Changyi to say: "Call Mu San back. If a little girl ruins the friendship between my king and my cousin, it will be more harm than good."

"Yes!"

Although Mu Changyi felt that Xin Changning was not like an ordinary woman, if he kept Mu San by his side, he might be able to benefit the Prince Wan's mansion in the future, but since the King of Wan said so, he did not dare to disobey the order, so he called Mu San immediately. went back.

As soon as Mu San left, another coachman arrived. It was Xiao Shiba, the secret guard arranged by Xiao Qian.

Xiao Shiba had a long dry and thin face, slightly dark and rough skin, a low-brow and pleasing smile on his face, and he habitually nodded and bowed.That appearance is really an ordinary image of ordinary people, and it is really shameful that you can't find it in the crowd.

"To be able to teach the dark guards like this, the leader of the dark guards of your Zhenbei Prince's Mansion is really talented!"

Seeing this, Xin Changning had to give a word of admiration.

"That is, otherwise, how could the prince be afraid of my young master for many years, but there is nothing he can do!"

Xiao Ling proudly raised her neck, stepped forward and shouted enthusiastically: "Brother Eighteen, from now on, the girl's driving and travel safety will be entrusted to you."

"That's natural, girl, don't worry, I will ensure the girl's safety even if my body is smashed to pieces." Xiao Shiba bowed to Xin Changning and whispered.

"I'm a businessman, and you're going to do business everywhere, so there's no such danger! Well, Mr. Su from Zhenbao Building just sent a message to ask me to talk about something, you go prepare the car!"

Since he is Xiao Qian's person, Xin Changning doesn't need to try to win over anything, and said with a natural attitude.

"Yes!" Xiao Shiba immediately went to prepare the car.

Since today besides seeing Mr. Su, he also wanted to meet a relative of Mr. Su's family who is familiar with buying and selling land, so Xin Changning dressed up a little.As a result, she was just about to get into the car wearing a veiled hat, when there was a sudden noise outside, and it turned out that Azzello brought someone again.

This guy is really curious.

With such perseverance, depending on the situation, if he doesn't see each other, he might come to block the door every day.

Thinking of this, Xin Changning waved his hands helplessly, signaling to Xiao Shiba and Xiao Ling not to be impulsive, and ordered Zhu accountant to invite Azheluo into the backyard.

"Your Highness, we haven't opened here yet. If you come here again and again in such a grand manner, it will attract the attention of some people, which is not good for my shopkeeper."

"Your shopkeeper, is that beauty? Oh, it's okay, the prince can let the word out, just say that he saw a shop here that was vacant, and wanted to sell Ximan's specialties. That's okay, right?"

Seeing that he was able to see people, Azheluo was very happy, and danced and said: "If you don't believe me, Xiao Wang will order people to bring some fur gems and other things to sell."

"There are furs and gems?"

Xin Changning's heart skipped a beat immediately.

She had heard that Ximan is rich in all kinds of gemstones, and they are of high quality. Now that she is making high-quality jewelry, she is worried that the gemstones sold outside are expensive and expensive. The ones brought by the prince of Ximan are naturally the best.

"Your Highness, since that's the case, can you sell some of the gems to the daughter of the people?"

Xin Changning greeted him in front of the door, looking at Azhe Luo from afar.
