The Crown Prince Chases His Wife

Night falls, Shanglin Yuyuan Hanxiang Hall, the side hall holds seats for the three armies participating today, and the main hall entertains the princes and nobles who are watching the game today, including Xie Changyuan, the prince of Yongding Houfu, Xie Zhao, the eldest son of Yongdinghoufu, Shen Guo Gongfu. The resignation and the commander of the Nanya Forbidden Army, Lu Shen, were present as non-voting delegates.

Qin Yan's seat was tied with the two princesses, and Jiang Mu was also in her position.

The seats of the two brothers in Xiehou Mansion happened to be directly opposite Qin Yan.

At that time, Xie Hou suddenly appeared in a room for him to have a son and a daughter. Xie Hou also recognized the two concubines back to the Hou residence, causing Princess Anyang to die in depression. It stands to reason that this greatly offended the royal family's face, but instead of being angry, the Tian family acquiesced to this fact.

The reason for this is still the imperial power and balance method of Emperor Hui today. In the year when this incident just happened, the border affairs were unstable, Xie Hou made military exploits and was seriously injured. The Tian family can't just chill the hearts of the soldiers for the face of the royal family.

Now, it's the same balance of power. Daxia's current military strength is four-pointed, and this is not even counting the 200,000 private soldiers of the prince. The head coaches are the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion in the northwest, Yongding Hou in Shuobei, Guannei Hou in the east, and Ping Nanbo in the south.

Emperor Hui is a qualified emperor, always dominated by power, and rationally makes people feel terrible. I don't know if there has been a time when I have been on the throne, in the balance of power and personal affection, I have tended to have an affair once.

The eldest princess of Anyang was born in an imperial family, and her marriage was traded to consolidate the royal power. After Qu's death, she could not get the royal family to seek justice for her, and everything had to make way for the consolidation of imperial power.

------

Thinking of this, Qin Yan sighed very much, and she raised her eyes to look at the prince Feng Zhan who was seated next to the throne.

The Crown Prince will also be like Emperor Hui!

Feng Zhan raised his eyes sharply, touching Qin Yan's slightly regretful eyes, Feng Zhan frowned slightly, why did he make her feel pitiful?

At this time, Emperor Hui on the throne suddenly said:

"Zhang Yuan, I heard that you have a little girl in the house, and it is quite satisfactory to you. Do you need me to decree marriage? I am very enlightened. I have lovers who are married in the end, and several of my princes are always Hold on, there have been no happy events in the palace for a long time."

Xie Changyuan was about to refuse, when he raised his eyes and saw what Qin Yan was saying with the boy next to him, Qin Yan smiled.

Xie Changyuan's eyes suddenly turned cold. Although they didn't care about the engagement, Qin Yan's almost indifferent attitude towards him made him feel disgraced.

What's more, there is the matter of thanking photos.

The words of refusal came to his lips, but Xie Changyuan changed his mouth:

"I thank you, Your Majesty."

After speaking, he looked at Qin Yan, who was sitting opposite him. At this time, Qin Yan took his eyes away from the adjacent table, and his expression was light. look.

Xie Chang Yuan's heart was cold, and she didn't care so much.

The whole audience was shocked. Everyone in the audience knew about the marriage contract between the Prince of Yongding Hou's Mansion and Qin Yan, the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and heard of Qin Yan's rumors a few days ago, and Xie Shizi's denial of the marriage contract at the city gate.

But in front of Qin Yan, the sage offered marriage to Xie Shizi. Isn't this action a slap in the face of Qin Yan?

The three generations of the Shen family were all displeased, and Qin Xiang frowned. No matter how bad the father-daughter relationship was, she was still his daughter and represented his face outside.

------

Emperor Hui spoke again:

"Today's game is very exciting, whether it's the battle between Shen Cejun and Longwujun, or the hand-to-hand combat between the three armies and soldiers, it's exciting! Exciting!"

The following Xie Changyuan, Xie Zhao, Shen Ci and Lu Chen had their backs tense and came.

At that time, they were enthusiastic on the field, but they didn't care that it was still at the Royal Stadium, ignoring military discipline, ignoring the royal dignity, and sooner or later they would be held accountable.

"Prince, how do you say the punishment?" Emperor Hui looked at the prince Feng Zhan.

Feng Zhan picked up the wine glass in front of him and took a sip without saying a word.

This is a difficult matter, and the Pingxi Army should have been rewarded.

Before Feng Zhan could speak, Emperor Hui continued:

"I thought that you young people are too energetic and have nowhere to vent. I heard that Zhaoren County's main mansion has recently been renovating the pond and forest garden in the mansion. I have found a chance for you. Every day, I go to the Zhaoren County Lord's Mansion to work as a coolie, and I can only leave after two hours of hard work."

"The minister knows the crime, and the minister accepts the punishment." Shen Ci, Lu Chen, Xie Changyuan and Xie Zhao all kneeled and said gracefully.

"Zhaoren County Master, what do you think?" Emperor Hui asked Qin Yan.

… can I say bad? Qin Yan could only say that he would listen to His Majesty's arrangement.

Everyone was puzzled. If the marriage to Xie Shizi did not care about Zhaoren County Lord's face in public, then the punishment method of the three soldiers would be extremely embarrassing for the Zhaoren County Lord.

Your Majesty is this?

"I and the prince are scheduled to hold an award ceremony for the victorious soldiers of the Pingxi army in the western suburbs of the Pingxi army three days later. Today, you all feast to your heart's content. We are not physically fit and need to retire early. The prince will then preside over it." Hui Di Qing After a few coughs, Li Fuquan helped him leave.

"Respectfully send your majesty." Everyone's mind was different. Although speculating on the holy will is a taboo, but no one wants to be able to understand the holy heart.

------

Xie Chang Yuan looked at Qin Yan who was drinking slowly, suppressed the anger in his heart, raised his head and drank a glass.

Xie Zhao's eyelids drooped slightly beside him, covering up the dim light that flashed in his eyes.

He knew from a young age that he had a younger brother who was like a son of heaven, but his father did not let him show himself in front of others.

That day Princess Anyang returned to the ancestral house. He didn't know it, but the uncle deceived him because his mother had an accident at the ancestral house, and happened to meet the surprised Princess Anyang.

Anyang eldest princess, that is a woman who can see the tenderness between the eyebrows. He saw that woman's expression from doubt, to shock, to anger, to sadness. He didn't care about anything else, he was anxious to find his mother, but it turned out that this farce was just a drama arranged by his mother and cousin. Just so that they can enter the Hou Mansion with integrity.

He was angry and ashamed, but what followed was the hanging of his mother. He was frightened and helpless. He blamed the injustice of heaven. Why didn't he let his mother have a noble identity? He could have a noble background and allow them to stand upright and bright in the sun.

He hated his younger brother whom he had never met, and envied him. He had such a noble family background, and he was able to make military exploits with his father on the battlefield with integrity, and I heard that he also had a prominent fiancée.

Yes, Xie Changyuan's fiancée was in the northwest, the camp of the Pingxi army. If he can enter the Pingxi Army, he can make military contributions on his own.

If Xie Changyuan's fiancee chooses him instead, then...

Today's Xie Zhao despises the nasty thoughts he once had. But today, he can compete with Xie Changyuan in a fair and open manner, whether it is military merit, fame or women.

------

Qin Yan didn't know what happened in the hearts of the Xie brothers, she turned her head to Jiang Mu, and said softly and jokingly:

"That one just wanted to see you? You're so frightened, if you don't have the guts, how can you dare to face your subjects in the future? Face your sly and cunning uncle? Face your father, queen and mother under Jiuquan? "

Jiang Mu was embarrassed and angry. He knew what this woman was saying, but how could she experience it firsthand, that under the enemy's camp, it was Jiang Mu, not her Qin Yan, who looked up to others.

Jiang Mu took a sip of wine and coughed.

"Who is the young man beside Zhaoren County Master?" Prince Feng Zhan said the longest sentence so far today, which is really rare.

Everyone present held their breath and held their breaths, and those who did not know were also curious about the identity of this young man.

Qin Yan looked directly at Feng Zhan, she was too lazy to make up another identity for Jiang Mu.

"Back to His Royal Highness, this is the younger brother adopted by the minister's daughter, Jiang Mu."

Feng Zhan's eyes narrowed slightly, Jiang? ginger? Is it...

"His Royal Highness, the minister and daughter have an unkind request." Qin Yan spoke again.

Feng Zhan raised his eyes, his voice was deep,

"speak."

"His Royal Highness, there are no literate people in the palace of the ministers and daughters, and they know that they are not good at teaching their younger brothers. The ministers and daughters want to ask for a position as a student in the Imperial College for the younger brother Jiang Mu, and I hope His Royal Highness The Prince's permission."

Everyone was amazed. To enter the Imperial College, candidates had to pass five levels and behead six generals, and even the officials’ children had to look at their identities.

Qin Yan is so arrogant?

Saying that there are no literate people in your house? Does that make sense? Even a military commander has to get some calligraphy and painting to decorate the facade, and talk about elegance when he speaks. How can anyone say that he has no culture or is a woman?

Qin Xiang was even more shocked. This is impossible. When he sent Qin Ming to the Imperial College Prison, it was because he was only a concubine, and it took a lot of trouble. Qin Yan is just a princess, adopted brother? Where did such an identity come from?

Feng Yuyao looked at Qin Yan admiringly, yes, Xiao Yanyan was so mad that she was impressed. Thinking about the soft, waxy and fragrant little ball Qin Yan when he was a child, Feng Yuyao really felt that Qin Yan was really changed from his bones.

Feng Zhan was silent for a moment, if the old man acquiesced to someone with such a sensitive identity, he would follow Qin Yan. That…

Whether it's Qin Yan or this kid, you can rest assured when you put it under your own eyes.

"That's right. Song Zhi, let the Guozijian make arrangements for the sacrificial wine."

"My minister thanked His Highness the Crown Prince." Qin Yan turned to look at Jiang Mu, "Jiang Mu, thank you."

Jiang Mu frowned slightly, but stood up and bowed:

"Xiaomin thanked His Royal Highness the Prince."

------

Everyone was shocked, Qin Yan's unreasonable request, His Royal Highness agreed so readily.

Then think about the Zhaoren County Master's Mansion, which is next to the Prince's Mansion. Your Majesty bestowed the marriage of the Zhaoren County Master's ex-fiancé in public, and Your Majesty ordered the soldiers of the three armies to renovate the mansion of the Zhaoren County Master's Mansion...

I don't dare to think, I dare not think about it, Zhaoren County Master is going to...

Xie Changyuan felt a tightness in his heart. His marriage with Qin Yan was not just a joke. The two also had tokens exchanged between their mother and Mrs. Qin. He only verbally denied it, and only just agreed that His Majesty's marriage was just a matter of urgency.

But if a prince is involved, his cousin, the prince's cousin, is famous for his decision to kill. For Qin Yan, if it is only His Majesty's thoughts, it's fine, if the prince has this intention...

Xie Zhao was also stunned. If it was Xie Changyuan, he would still be able to compete, but the prince?

People's minds are different.

Jiang Mu said to Qin Yan with a little dissatisfaction:

"Have you asked me if I would like to go?"

Qin Yan pressed his throat, his tone was neither salty nor light,

"I arranged it for you before, have I asked you again? Wu, the people in the Guogong's mansion taught you, Wen, you have to have a wide range of different ideas, rather than being one-sided by one or a few masters. teaching."

"If you want to be a king, you need to be able to calmly accept all kinds of conflicting opinions. You should go to Guozijian to see the master's teaching, the views of your classmates, and go to the tea house restaurant to listen to the debates of the masters. Don't be cheap and be good."

Jiang Mu was speechless, yes, Qin Yan had never asked his opinion about the courses that Qin Yan arranged for him, but he knew that those were for his own good.

But he just had an instinctive repulsion. He rejected being taught, arranged and protected by a woman who was only a few months older than him. He is eager to become stronger and stand alone, and he is eager to protect himself and the people he values.

Thinking of this, Jiang Mu couldn't help but glanced at Qin Yan, the heartless woman who held up her wine glass and clinked glasses with Princess Jingyi next to her, raised her slender neck and drank the wine in her hand.

Is she really not afraid to meet me on the battlefield?

At this time, Jiang Mu really couldn't imagine that the real powerhouses were not afraid that their opponents were stronger than themselves, which would arouse their fighting spirit even more.

Moreover, Qin Yan and Emperor Hui needed Jiang Mu to be able to resist his uncle who killed the monarch and seized the throne, instead of raising a puppet who was useless.

The crowd ended the banquet in the midst of many thoughts.

------

When leaving the table, Prime Minister Qin stopped Qin Yan, Jiang Mu immediately protected Qin Yan, and looked at Prime Minister Qin eagerly. The people from the Duke's Mansion also came one after another, blocking between Qin Xiang and Qin Yan.

Qin Xiang was dumbfounded, and the people in the Duke's Mansion actually regarded him as a beast. No matter what, Qin Yan was also his daughter, and the tiger's poison did not eat its children.

"Father-in-law..." Qin Xiang wanted to bow to Duke Zhen Guo's Shen Changshan, but was interrupted sharply by the other party.

"I heard that our Duke Zhenguo's mansion is used to overpowering people, so it's better for Prime Minister Qin to call me a title." Shen Changshan's voice was cold and severe.

"..." Qin Xiang froze in place, was he trying to draw a line with him?

Qin Yan smiled, "What does Qin Xiang want to say?"

"Qin Yan, Xiyuan, it has been restored to its original state according to your request. You can come back and see it another day. Let's move back in. After all, we are a family." Qin Xiang spoke carefully, he already knew the violence of his eldest daughter. Temper, do not want to provoke her again.

"Yanyan has a family, so Qin Xiangxian doesn't need to worry about it." Shen Ci said sarcastically.

Qin Yan just glanced at Qin Xiang indifferently and left first with the group of the Duke of Zhenguo.

Qin Xiang looked at the resolute back of the eldest daughter, and only sighed.
