MTL - The Crown Prince Chases His Wife-Chapter 123 ask for marriage

The town on the northern border of Daxia was sacked and slaughtered by a group of Turkic bandits. The Turkic royal family denied any connection with the military, and only promised to try their best to hunt down the culprits.

After that, the anger of the troops stationed on the two sides of the border between Daxia and the Turks increased, and there were conflicts and fights from time to time.

On the 16th day of the first lunar month, Xie'an, Hou of Yongding, was appointed as the commander of the Shuobei Army.

Feng Subei originally planned to take people around Youzhou and send the first concubine An Yanxi back to Duanwangfu in Youzhou.

But in the early morning of the day of departure, the first concubine An Yanxi suddenly fell ill and continued to have a high fever.

And the day before, when Feng Subei informed An Yanxi of his arrangement, An Yanxi showed no sign of being sick at all.

If something goes wrong, there must be a demon. Based on Feng Subei's understanding of An Yanxi, An Yanxi is very likely to pretend to be sick and not leave.

But no matter if An Yanxi is in love with her family, or she doesn't want to go to the bitter cold Youzhou, or she wants to stay in Shangjing for what to do. In the current situation, Feng Subei has no reason to drag the sick An Yanxi on the road.

Wan Yanxi had an accident along the way, and he couldn't explain it to the scholar's office.

And the matter of Shuobei was urgent and could not be delayed, and there was no room for Feng Subei to wait.

Feng Subei could only leave a team behind, and after An Yanxi recovered, he would send her to Youzhou.

Thinking that An Yanxi had mentioned Qin Lin at the Yuanri Palace Banquet, in order to prevent An Yanxi from using tactics against Qin Lin behind her back, Feng Subei explained to his entourage Lin Shu:

"In addition, a few people will be sent to protect Miss Qin Fulin secretly. If there is a situation that cannot be dealt with, they will seek help from the Crown Princess's mansion as soon as possible."

Lin Shu had some understanding of the situation between his eldest son and Miss Qin Lin, he asked suspiciously:

"If the prince is interested in Miss Lin, why not ask the Holy Highness or His Royal Highness to give an decree, and the Qin Mansion has to obey."

Feng Subei raised his eyes and glanced at Lin Shu, then tugged at the corner of his lips.

First of all, not to mention that Feng Subei didn't want to force Qin Lin.

Besides, with that Crown Princess here, the Qin Mansion has no choice but to obey?

I'm afraid not really.

February 2, mid-spring.

There is a saying in Jingzhe: "Spring thunder starts a hundred insects."

With the first spring thunder blasting the sky this year, a shocking and sad news quickly spread in the capital city.

He Xiao, the eldest son of the Minister of War, He's House, was accidentally disabled while guarding the border of Shuobei, and his legs were amputated.

After Young Master He was sent back to Beijing, the palace immediately issued an imperial decree to send it to the He House.

He Xiao, the eldest son of the He family, was awarded the title of Xuanwu General from the Fourth Grade.

For He Xiao, who has disabled legs, although this is a false title of military officer, it is also the royal family's appeasement to the He family.

Thinking of Mr. He, who once lingered in the flowers, a few months ago, he showed off his skills while hunting in the western suburbs hunting ground, and he was full of high spirits.

The palace also sent a group of imperial physicians to the He House to treat the eldest son of He, but they were all turned away.

"Let them go, let them all go." He Xiao roared while lying on the bed.

He Yanming was heartbroken when he saw his son like this.

In fact, He Xiao tried to commit suicide several times when he learned that he had to amputate his limbs to save his life in Shuobei. Fortunately, the sergeant in the camp stopped him in time.

This is also the reason why He Xiao was sent back to Beijing so quickly after his injury stabilized.

If the eldest son of the Minister of Military Affairs committed suicide in the Shuobei military camp, would the Shuobei camp be held responsible for ineffective nursing care?

When He Yanming came out of He Xiao's room, he happened to meet Nan Xu, He Xiao's concubine who was slowly coming over with the help of a maid.

Nan Xu was about to salute He Yanming, but He Yanming raised his hand to stop him.

He Yanming's eyes moved down to Nan Xu's pregnant belly, and his heart was very complicated.

The imperial doctor said that He Xiao may not be able to have any more children, and this concubine who was brought into the mansion by He Xiao, may be He Xiao's only child in her belly.

And He Yanming also learned that He Xiao had begged to die several times. Maybe this child would make He Xiao change his mind.

Nan Xu was about to speak, but He Yanming spoke first:

"go in."

Nan Xu nodded, and then asked the maid to remove her hand and stay where she was. She supported her pregnant belly and walked slowly into the house.

He Yanming looked at Nan Xu's back, and had mixed feelings in his heart.

Nanxu, the second daughter of An Binghuai, the former Minister of the Household, although she lived in the dust, her character and cultivation can still see the shadow of the former daughter of an aristocratic family.

The gestures make people feel like a spring breeze, neither flattering nor arrogant.

At this moment, Nan Xu could not be separated from the servant girl's service without relying on her own pregnancy. She did not show He Xiao's embarrassed side to others, she was saving face for He Xiao.

Unfortunately, she is only a concubine.

On the other hand, He Xiao's wife, Qin Nian, the second daughter of the Right Prime Minister's Mansion, went to the Right Prime Minister's Mansion immediately after learning that He Xiao had an accident, and has not returned yet.

Qin Xiang is a good person, but although Qin Nian is the first daughter, his biological mother is a concubine who was carried as a flat wife. Now that Mrs. Qin, Song Shi, I heard that she used means to force Qin Xiang's original wife away. His first wife Shen Shiying.

Based on the virtues of the mother and daughter, I am afraid that at the moment they are discussing the plan to let Qin Nian He Xiao reconcile.

He Yanming knows how He Xiao and Qin Nian's unsatisfactory marriage came about.

Qin Nian hurt He Xiao. If you are ready to leave at this time, don't even think about it.

------

Qin Xiangfu, the main hall.

Song Mei held Qin Nian's hand with worry on her face. She turned to look at Qin Wenzheng, who was in the first seat.

"Master Xiang..." was interrupted by Qin Wenzheng's cold voice.

"Impossible, you are dead with this heart!"

Song Mei and Qin Nian shuddered when they heard the words, and then the mother and daughter hugged and sobbed softly.

Qin Wenzheng looked at the two people in the hall very upset, crying and crying.

Qin Wenzheng said angrily:

"He Xiao just had an accident. Qin Nian, what if you didn't stay in the He Mansion to take care of your husband, and ran back to your mother's house?"

"He Li? You really can figure it out!"

"When disaster strikes, let's fly separately? Where do you let me, Qin Wenzheng, put this old face?"

Qin Wenzheng's chest was heaving and he was gasping for breath, as if he was very angry.

Song Mei turned her head and cried:

"But Master Xiang, how will Nian Nian live the rest of his life..."

Qin Wenzheng frowned and sighed deeply.

How's it going?

How can I get through?

Are they playing a family when they are married?

"Hurry up and go back to He's House, and don't let me hear rumors that my daughter Qin Wenzheng is ruthless and unjust."

"The matter of Heli, don't mention it again."

After speaking, Qin Wenzheng threw his sleeves and left.

Song Mei hugged Qin Nian, exhausted both physically and mentally at the moment.

She hadn't come out of the pain of Qin Ming's departure to Shuobei, and Qin Nian's husband had this trouble again.

Why is she so miserable...

But Qin Nian stopped sobbing.

Crying is just for others to see, it does nothing.

Since her father didn't care about her for the sake of the family's face, he had to figure out a way by himself.

-------

At the same time, the major families in the capital city successively received invitations from the government of the town.

Ten days later, the government of Zhenguo held a birthday banquet for Shen Changshan in the mansion, and feasted the guests.

This news caused quite a stir among the aristocratic families in Beijing.

It is well known in the world that the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion is extremely low-key, not to mention holding banquets, that is, banquets held by other families in Beijing on weekdays, and few people from the mansion of the Duke of Zhenguo show up.

And a little insider made a calculation, it seems that the birth date of Shen Changshan, the Duke of Zhen Guo, does not seem to be in this month, and this year is not a full birthday.

Then, is there any other purpose for the government to hold a banquet with great fanfare?

And another person in the know came back to it. Didn't I hear that Qin Tong's original wife, once the first beauty in Beijing, Shen Shiying, the first lady of the town's government, had left?

There are also rumors that it seems that Miss Shen is indeed still alive and may want to return to Beijing.

So, is it possible that the birthday banquet in this town's government's mansion is also a reception banquet for Shen Shiying, the lady of the state's mansion?

This is indeed the case.

Shen Shiying wrote in a letter saying that she had left from Jiangnan and would arrive in Beijing in about ten days.

The Duke of Zhen Guo, Shen Changshan, wanted his daughter to return to the capital in an upright manner, so Shen Shiying reappeared in front of people through a birthday banquet.

------

As for the news that the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion was going to hold a birthday banquet, Qin Xiang heard it from his colleagues.

What made Qin Wenzheng a little embarrassed was that Qin Xiangfu did not receive the invitation from the Zhenguo Gongfu.

Looking at the powerful family in Shangjing, the only person who may not have received the invitation from the Zhenguo Gongfu is the former uncle Qin Wenzheng of the Zhenguo Gongfu.

Qin Wenzheng also immediately thought whether Shen Shiying was really still alive, and whether she was really coming back.

The news spread quickly throughout the capital, and the popularity even surpassed the fact that the eldest son of He Fu lost his leg.

She used to be the number one beauty in Shangjing, but now she is divorced and returned to the Duke's Mansion to be her concubine.

Even if Shen Shiying was married and had children, some people still moved their minds.

It also includes Emperor Hui in the palace.

When Emperor Hui heard the news, his hands trembled with excitement, and he almost didn't hold the tea cup.

He had confirmed from Qin Yan that Shen Shiying was still alive, but now, she is really coming back...

Shen Shiying has reconciled, whether...

Emperor Hui ordered the chief **** Li Fuquan to send people to focus on the Duke Zhenguo Mansion and the mansion of Zhaoren County. As soon as there was news of Shen Shiying, he immediately reported it.

------

Chengqian Palace.

Concubine Shu listened to the reports from the people below:

"Niangniang, the people of His Royal Highness, it seems that they have checked the files of all the palace people in Xiyuan for more than ten years."

"Could it be because the Crown Princess fell into the water in Taiye Pond?"

Concubine Shu put down the tea cup, raised her eyes, and sneered.

"Check? Everyone is dead, what can you find?"

Oh, the prince is investigating the old case, and Shen Shiying may have to go back to Beijing.

Do these people want to settle old accounts?

I'm afraid it's not that easy.

------

Shou'an Palace.

The Empress Dowager Xiao is closing her eyes and crossing the Canaan bracelet in her hands.

After hearing the news reported by Xia Ying, the Queen Mother Xiao slowly opened her eyes.

Is Shen Shiying still alive?

She is really big.

------

Xishan Prince's Mansion, Chenghua Hall's study.

Qin Yan and Feng Zhan sat on two opposite chairs, each looking at the book in his hand.

The two in their hands were the credentials submitted by the countries that were going to Daxia to attend the Queen Mother's birthday banquet and the prince's wedding, while the one in Qin Yan's hand was from Beiliang.

Qin Yan's brows moved slightly after reading it quickly.

"Emperor Bei Liang really dares."

Feng Zhan raised his eyes to look at Qin Yan, he knew what Qin Yan was talking about.

In Beiliang's national book, it was written that the Beiliang Emperor wanted to marry Daxia and asked to marry Shen Shiying, the young lady of the Duke's Mansion in Daxia Town, as the Queen of Beiliang.

Feng Zhan was slightly surprised when he first saw it.

However, Miss Shen is really capable.

------

Feng Zhan looked at Qin Yan and said:

"The document from Nanjiang said that the current regent princess from Nanjiang will be in the mission to Daxia this time."

"The princess of Nanjiang is more ruthless than her father, the previous king of Nanjiang. On the Lingnan side, Ping Nanbo often struggled to deal with it."

"The two assassinations in Jiangnan were written by the Dongyi people. Maybe it has something to do with the Dongyi royal family. It's not impossible."

"King Ning's biological mother, Concubine Li, came from the royal clan of the Goryeo Kingdom."

"Back then, Empress Dowager Xiao insisted on sending Concubine Li to be buried for the late emperor, because she felt that the small country of Goryeo couldn't make waves."

"In those days, although it was announced that Concubine Li volunteered to be buried, it is hard to guarantee that the Kingdom of Korea did not record this."

"Xirong and Turks have only had a truce with Daxia for a few years, and in the past few years, Xirong and Turks are still in frequent exchanges, it is not difficult for people to think about it."

"Around Daxia is indeed surrounded by wolves."

"And in the actions of Emperor Bei Liang and his relatives, there may also be an intention to deal with the Turks together after marrying with Da Xia."

Qin Yan looked at Feng Zhan, her phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, and her voice was cold:

"His Royal Highness, are you planning to use your relatives to make the cooperative relationship more stable?"

Feng Zhan immediately understood that the tone of the woman opposite was a little hesitant, and said in a deep voice:

"Daxia doesn't need marriage."

"Whether you agree with Beiliang's request for a marriage depends only on Miss Shen's own wishes."

"If Miss Shen volunteers to marry into the Beiliang royal family, Daxia will give Miss Shen the highest honor and honor, and Daxia will be Miss Shen's most solid backing."

"If Miss Shen is unwilling to kiss, no one can force her."

Feng Zhan got up and walked in front of Qin Yan, stretched out a big hand with sharp joints, lifted Qin Yan's delicate chin, and printed a handsome face with sharp edges and corners.

After the kiss, Feng Zhan did not leave Qin Yan, still with water-colored red lips, and spoke in a low and mellow voice:

"Are you satisfied, lonely princess?"

Qin Yan curled her lips into a small smile, the Crown Prince really didn't have any dissatisfaction with her.

Qin Yan stretched out an arm and hooked Feng Zhan's neck, red lips took the initiative to imprint Feng Zhan's thin lips, another deep kiss.

The atmosphere in the study gradually changed from ambiguous to warm…

but…

Both Feng Zhan and Qin Yan knew in their hearts that Emperor Beiliang's request to marry Miss Shen's relative might still be an obstacle that could not be overcome.

The one on the throne.
