The next day.

The bright sun is shining with golden rays, and the warm wind is blowing on the earth, creating a scene of vitality.

A group of more than a hundred Western Chu envoys, led by officials from Honglu Temple, slowly entered Luoyang City.

The people of Luoyang stopped one after another and gathered around the streets to watch, with curious expressions on their faces.

As ordinary people who don't have many entertainment programs, of course they like to watch the excitement.

Their gossip hearts have already risen high. Even if they are crowded and shoulder to shoulder, they stand on tiptoes desperately, trying to see what this Jade Princess from Western Chu looks like.

Thinking back to the year before last...

Princess Qiuyue of Western Chu married the late emperor as his concubine, but was ruined by the famous Duke Wu An at the Xinke Banquet!

Oh no, at that time Li Zian had not yet reached the title of Duke Wu An, he was just the top scholar in the new department!

No matter what the truth of the matter is, Li Zian was deprived of his title of No. 1 Scholar and demoted to the rank of jailer. And Princess Qiuyue was relegated to the cold palace.

But the final ending was so unexpected.

Is Li Zi'an going to be very prosperous, soaring through the ranks, and finally becoming a great minister?

And that Princess Qiuyue... I heard that the Yeting Palace was flooded last year and the fire was raging. The poor princess was unable to escape and was eventually buried in the sea of ​​​​fire.

Time flies... I didn't expect that it would already be more than two years ago.

now.

Western Chu finally bowed its head and proclaimed itself a vassal, and was willing to marry Dayin forever in the Qin and Jin Dynasties, so he married a princess again.

It is said that this Princess Jade is the younger sister of the former Moon Princess, but she was exiled among the people due to an accident and was only found recently.

But this time, Princess Jade is no longer marrying His Majesty as his concubine...

Your Majesty announced to the world yesterday afternoon that all good sons and daughters of Dayin, as long as they are unmarried, can come to Luoyang to witness the beauty of Princess Jade.

As long as he can be favored by Princess Jade and recruited as her consort, he will skyrocket to ninety thousand miles - reaching the sky in one step!

Everyone was looking forward to it and wanted to see the face of this jade princess with their own eyes.

They have all heard that the former Princess Qiuyue was the third most stunning beauty on the Beauty List!

Then the appearance of Princess Jade, who is from the same mother, is definitely not much different!

But it's a pity.

They do not have this blessing.

How could little people like them be qualified to look up to Princess Jade's face?

They were sitting in a carriage, guarded by dozens of guards at the front and on the left and right, and they had no chance to appreciate it.

Sister, do you really want to marry Li Zian with Princess Qingyang of Dayin?

In the carriage.

Ashina, who was dressed as a maid, showed off a really bright smile, and her eyes flashed with excitement.

Jiang Qiuyue held her chin, her eyes dull, and sighed: You have asked me this no less than thirty times along the way.

Hehe, I'm just curious! Li Zian is actually quite a good person. You won't suffer any loss when you marry him. Why do you look so depressed?

Ashina stuck out her tongue.

She doesn't understand why Sister Li doesn't want to marry Brother Li, who is such a good person?

If it were her, hmm... she would also be willing to marry Brother Li! In this way, she can bully that bad girl Qiluo openly!

Jiang Qiuyue didn't know that this cousin's innocent appearance hid a sinister heart!

She expressed her dissatisfaction with Li Nuo in a nasal voice: Humph! Don't be deceived by Li Zian. He has a lot of confidantes around him!

Ashina said with a smile: Hehe, with your ability, sister, you should be able to catch him! Use both soft and hard tactics, coercion and inducement, and drive away all his confidante!

Jiang Qiuyue rolled her eyes angrily: Let's not mention that hateful guy. Besides, there is no guarantee whether this matter can be done, and it's not something I can say!

Ashina's big dark brown eyes were full of doubts: Could the Dayin court still oppose this?

After all, she was just a young girl of fifteen or sixteen years old, how could she know the dangers of the imperial court.

It is not so easy to reach an agreement when it concerns Dayin's face and Potian's interests!

Jiang Qiuyue's thoughts started to wander a little, and there was a complicated look in her eyes.

She didn’t know whether the Dayin court would object to it or not, but this hateful guy Li Zian would definitely object!

She couldn't help but recall the several confrontations she had with Li Zian. She never took advantage of him!

Especially the time she escaped from the Da Chu coup. I met Li Zian at the Longmen Inn, and then went with him to Daqing Mountain. Along the way, this hateful villain treated her like a cow and never showed any pity to her!

snort!

She is a majestic princess of Chu, with both talent and beauty, and is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. Is she still afraid that she will not be able to get married?

Why should she fall in love with Li Zian, who is already married?

Marry and be a child?

Why!

She refuses to accept it!

Just stop talking and we'll be at the Honglu Temple Embassy soon! Remember, no matter who tries to get close to you, just ignore it. The people here are very bad. Don't be betrayed and help count them. Where’s the silver?”

Jiang Qiuyue warned.

Don't worry, princess, I will take good care of Miss Ashina!

Jiang Qiuyue's real personal maid, the foxy girl who once took her place in the cold palace, had a flirtatious look on her face.

Ashina glanced at the foxy girl and said aggrievedly: Sister, I will be very good.

Jiang Qiuyue couldn't help but scratched Ashina's nose, and smiled: You! Okay, okay, after you settle down, I will take you out to visit the head office. The Central Plains is rich in resources and picturesque, there is enough for you to enjoy For life.

The grievance in Ashina's eyes disappeared instantly, and she said with excitement: Sister, I want to go to Chang'an!

Why are you going to Chang'an?

Jiang Qiuyue frowned slightly, feeling a dull pain in her heart.

Chang'an has not so good memories for her!

Ashina rolled her eyes and said mysteriously: I have a very good friend who lives in Chang'an. I want to visit her.

When did you make friends from the Central Plains?

Jiang Qiuyue's eyes narrowed and she said warily.

Ashina lied without batting an eyelid and said: Hehe, I met you when we were in Jiangnan before. Don't worry, sister, I'm not stupid and won't be deceived. This friend of mine is a girl, so she is better than me. He’s only three or four years older.”

Just be a girl.

Jiang Qiuyue breathed a sigh of relief, nodded slightly and said, After I meet Emperor Dayin in court, I will take you to visit Chang'an City.

In fact, Chang'an City is so majestic that it is not an exaggeration to call it the most majestic city in the world.

That majestic atmosphere was not created overnight. It is the accumulation of thousands of years of history!

Thank you, sister!

Ashina burst into laughter.

Hum!

This time, we must decide the outcome with that girl!

She couldn't help but tighten her fists!

She, Ashina, will not lose to a bratty girl who only knows how to use a sword!

Chang'an.

Qingyang Palace, Chrysanthemum Appreciation Pavilion.

Chunju weaves the afternoon sunshine into golden gauze, showing a bright smile.

What are you going to do?

Qingyang sat on the stone bench, brewing a pot of chrysanthemum tea leisurely, looking at his lover lazily through the fragrant mist.

Li Nuo's eyelids twitched and he said calmly: What to do?

Qingyangnu pushed the purple clay pot tea cup in front of Li Nuo and said with a smile: Your old sweetheart should have entered Luoyang City by now, but His Majesty does not want her to marry you. The meat that was put into your mouth flew away like this. Yes, can you swallow this breath?

Li Nuo picked up the tea cup and took a sip of the cow drink, but couldn't taste anything. He smashed it and said, Why are you teasing me? Don't you still understand what I mean? In fact, I am very grateful to Your Majesty for doing this.

Qingyang pursed her red lips and said worriedly: Actually, I also know what your Majesty means... If the Jade Princess of Xichu marries you with me, it will invisibly elevate her status. But then again , Princess Jade’s brother is Jiang Jingcan, the leader of the Western Chu Kingdom, and he and you also have the same friendship. If Princess Yu marries a child from another aristocratic family, I’m afraid Jiang Jingcan will have a hard time explaining it.

Li Nuo sighed: Then do you think there is a way to get the best of both worlds?

Just get married, if you can't get over this hurdle in your heart.

Don't get married. It's hard to explain Ren Tianxing's side. If one move affects the whole body, it is very likely that this political alliance will be ruined.

have!

Qingyang nodded silently.

Li Nuo asked hurriedly: What can I do?

Qingyang chuckled: Actually, it's very simple. You marry me first, and the momentum should be louder. It's best to make the whole world celebrate. After that, marry the Jade Princess of Xi Chu.

In this way, while fulfilling Jiang Jingcan's request, the face of Dayin Dynasty was saved.

And Li Zian also earned a beauty.

this……

Li Nuo was speechless.

Doesn’t this still treat him as a stallion for political marriage?

For others, this is a blessing.

But he...it's not that he's being pretentious, it's just that he feels like he has too many women. Niangzi, Ziyuan, Qingyang, and Ji Xiyao, who is living outside and raising a baby alone...

He is already too busy, what about another Jiang Qiuyue with a bad temper?

He was really afraid that the women at home would start a fight!

You are getting the advantage and being nice. Others who want to marry the Jade Princess have no chance. Now it is offered to you, and you don't want it!

Qingyang joked with a smile.

Li Nuo said: Let's not talk about her anymore. Let the court worry about this matter. I have already taken care of Prince Rui's side. He will not object. When do you think it is better for us to get married?

Qingyang gave Li Nuo an angry look: You are a man, you decide.

Then...after the mansion is renovated, we can choose an auspicious day?

Li Nuo said happily.

Qingyang blushed and nodded gently.

Hehe, then it's settled! I'll ask the etiquette department to make arrangements immediately. When the hibiscus flowers bloom in this pond, I will marry you!

Li Nuo reached out and grabbed Qingyang...

Hibiscus comes out of clear water, and the carvings are naturally removed.

It turns out that this bad guy still remembers this love poem!

A happy smile flashed in Qingyang's eyes.

I've said it all, you make the decision.

Qingyang smiled and ran away, so as not to let this bad guy succeed.

Li Nuo took a chance but didn't take it seriously.

Seeing Qingyang Miaoman's figure looking like an elf under the sun, he laughed: Then I will go back and prepare well now. I will definitely decorate a new home that satisfies you!

Out of Qingyang Palace.

Li Nuo then went straight to Prince Xiaoyao's Mansion.

Of course, Xiaoyao Palace has become history.

A brand new door plaque - Wu'an Gongfu written by Emperor Jingtai himself has been hung up.

The door of the mansion opened, and the busy figures of dozens of craftsmen in the mansion came into Li Nuo's sight.

Although the craftsmen are all experts from the Ministry of Industry, after all, it is the palace that needs to be renovated, and Li Nuo's requirements are very high, and even some of his little thoughts are mixed in. Such a large project will take at least three months to complete.

As for Qiluo, who volunteered to be a supervisor, there was nothing to do after the novelty wore off.

Master Li!

Lu Jiadi, the head of the Battalion and Maintenance Department of the Ministry of Industry, greeted him flatteringly.

When Li Nuo saw it, he smiled, cupped his hands and said, Master Lu is here in person.

Lu Jiadi returned the gift: Don't worry if I personally supervise it.

Master Lu is very determined. According to this progress, when will it be completed?

Li Nuo asked.

Lu Jiadi made an estimate in his mind and replied: It will take about three or four months.

It's been too long. I wonder if I can speed it up?

Li Nuo frowned.

Seeing that Lu Jiadi looked a little embarrassed, Li Nuo added: With a big reward, there must be a brave man. I won't let the craftsmen complain. As long as it can be completed within two months, I will definitely get a big reward!

Lu Jiadi gritted his teeth and said: Xia Guan can guarantee that the work will be completed in two months. Please rest assured, Lord Li, it will definitely not delay your marriage to Princess Qingyang!

Then thank you, Mr. Lu, for taking care of me.

Li Nuo smiled heartily.

Later, after explaining his renovation plan to Lu Jiadi, Li Nuo returned to the west city residence.

In the courtyard, bursts of laughter could be heard.

elder brother!

Seeing Li Nuo coming back, Jiang Ran'er immediately opened her arms and ran towards him.

Li Nuo hurriedly pointed at Jiang Ran'er's forehead, dumbfounded: Girls should be more reserved.

Hehe! Don't you miss your brother?

Jiang Ran'er made a face playfully.

when did you come?

Li Nuo felt a little emotional.

Jiang Bodhisattva, who has become famous in the world, is just a young girl in the final analysis.

Hehe, we came here with the Western Chu envoys. We just arrived in Chang'an half an hour ago.

Jiang Ran'er said extremely excitedly.

Ye Qingyu said with a smile on her face: Husband, sister Ran'er is lively and cute, and she gets along very well with the slave family.

Jiang Ran'er also responded with a sweet smile: Brother, you really found a good sister-in-law for me!

Li Nuo smiled and said, Where's mother? She's not with you?

Jiang Ran'er curled her lips: Mother said that you haven't officially met her yet, so it's not convenient for her to come. She's staying at the Qingfeng Inn in front of you.

Is she still polite?

Li Nuo was a little surprised.

This strong mother seems to have undergone some changes.

Ye Qingyu said helplessly: Husband, I immediately went to invite my mother-in-law, but she stayed behind closed doors...

It seems that I have to take action myself. Just wait, I will go and bring my mother back.

Li Nuo understood in his heart that it was not Jiang Rou who was deliberately trying to intimidate him, but that the knot in her heart had not yet been untied.

And this knot can only be solved by him himself.

Well, husband, go and come back quickly. You can catch up on dinner just in time. I'll make some steamed seabass...

Ye Qingyu urged.

A quarter of an hour later.

Li Nuo appeared at Qingfeng Inn.

He took a deep breath, opened the guest room door, and saw the slightly lonely figure.

The simple woman trembled slightly when she heard the sound of the door opening.

Mom, I'm here.

Li Nuo didn't have any emotions brewing and shouted directly.

And at the same time.

The memory of his childhood instantly occupied his entire mind.

In my memory, the vague figure slowly merged with the woman in front of me...

Blood is thicker than water.

There is nothing that cannot be said.

At this moment, Li Nuo understood that he had forgiven the mother who had abandoned him.

Jiang Rou turned around tremblingly, tears already streaming down her face...
