Chapter 172 Xuzhou Jiao cuts off Da Yan's idea of ​​marriage

Hearing Xu Zhoujiao asking about the whereabouts of the third prince, Yu Yong, Xia Maoze was dazed for a moment.

Under Xu Zhoujiao's relentless pursuit, Xia Maoze was so panicked that he didn't know how to respond for a moment.

He knew in his heart that it was an indisputable fact that the Third Prince had disappeared in the Great Hidden Land for no reason.

At this moment, unless the Third Prince could show up at the posthouse immediately, no matter how much he explained, it would be a pretext for criticism.

It might even cause the Great Hermit Monarch to become furious and order a nationwide search for the Third Prince!

By then, the situation of the entire Dazhen delegation became passive.

"Master Xia keeps saying that you are here for a marriage, so where is the groom?"

"You didn't run away, did you?"

Xu Zhoujiao looked at Xia Maoze, who was unable to defend himself, and blocked all his escape routes:

"Master Xia, you should know that there are many kinds of escape."

"Either your royal family of Dayin is plotting something bad against my Dayin. Your third prince just sneaked into my Dayin city with the diplomatic envoys under the guise of marriage. He left privately and deliberately did something unjust!"

"Or maybe your Third Prince didn't really come to marry our Princess Beining. He eloped with some maid or singing girl halfway through!"

"Or maybe you are just making fun of us and making fun of our Lord and Princess!"

There was no emotion in Xuzhou Jiao's words, which were clear and cold. With a fierce momentum, she oppressed Xia Maoze and made him say no.

"There are so many ways to run. Lord Xia, please choose one on behalf of Da Yan!"

Under Xuzhou Jiao's icy gaze.

Xia Maoze became anxious and looked at Gu Jiahua lying lifeless not far away, feeling full of regret.

Sigh: The other party died too early...

If she were still alive, such a difficult problem would never have fallen on my head.

Xia Maoze, who had no choice but to face the questions raised by Xu Zhoujiao, had a headache: because among these three options, no matter which one he chose, it would be wrong.

If the lightest punishment is chosen, not only will the Third Prince's marriage to Dayin be hopeless, but he will also be branded as a womanizer and unworthy of important positions.

At that time, he will withdraw from the competition for the crown prince and will have no chance of becoming emperor.

However, the remaining two were more treacherous than the other. They all concealed the signal that Da Yan was going to declare war on Da Yin.

But right now, the demon child has not grown up yet, so it is not the best time to start a war...

Xu Zhoujiao looked at Xia Maoze's indecisive look and urged him, "Why? Is it so difficult for Lord Xia to choose such a simple and clear matter?"

Hearing the impatience in Xu Zhoujiao's tone, Xia Maoze had no other choice to escape from the predicament.

He could only grit his teeth and sacrifice the reputation of the Third Prince.

"Many things in this world really cannot escape the discerning eyes of you, Lord City God. The purpose of Dazhen's trip is indeed to establish a lasting friendship between the two countries."

"But our Third Prince was so disobedient that he was bewitched by a maid and committed such a shameful act."

"We originally wanted to replace another prince, but we didn't expect that you would find out before we could do so!"

Seeing this, it was successfully acknowledged by 'Xia Maoze'.

Xu Zhoujiao leaned back on the chair and said in a teasing tone, "The Third Prince is impatient and lustful, this is understandable."

"Young people! It's normal to be a little impulsive."

"Since Lord Xia has said this, I, the City God, have something to say to you. The Third Prince is behaving so unbecomingly, and you, his subjects, should at least give him some words of advice!"

"Your Daxie has such a foolish prince. If the news gets out, won't it be your Daxie who will lose face?"

Under Xuzhou Jiao's series of humiliation.

The third prince now has completely lost his power in Dayin.

Forget about asking to marry the princess.

In Kyoto, any daughter of a minister with some power would not consider him. After all, no one would be so desperate as to lower their status and marry far away just to compete for favor with a group of maids and singing girls.

Seeing that the Third Prince had no way out, Xia Maoze, who was unwilling to give up, planned to find another way.

He took the initiative to recommend other princes from the same faction as himself to Xu Zhoujiao.

"Mr. City God is right. Our Third Prince is indeed a little confused. But the other princes of our dynasty are all outstanding and have extraordinary looks."

"Especially the Fourth Prince. Although he and the Third Prince are brothers from the same mother, his personality is much calmer than that of the Third Prince."

"He is indeed a good husband..."

But before he finished speaking, Xu Zhoujiao burst into laughter:

"How come Lord Xia is also confused? I, Xuzhou Jiao, am just a small city god of Kyoto. How can I be the master of the royal princess?"

"I was just worried about the safety of your country's third prince. I was afraid that he might encounter an accident, so I just asked a few more questions."

"Master Xia, why are you still discussing with me, the City God, who is more suitable to be your husband?"

Ever since Xia Maoze started recommending the prince, Chilong beside him kept rolling his eyes at him.

Now is the chance.

He sarcastically said to the confused Xia Maoze:

"Who says it's not true? The City God is talking to you about safety, and you're talking to him about marriage. Just tell me, what's wrong with your brain?"

"You are someone like me who doesn't even know how to worship God, and yet you want to learn how to be a matchmaker? If you don't become an official, you will starve to death!"

Hearing Chi Long's blunt words, Xu Zhoujiao frowned and shouted, "That's just nonsense!"

"Master Xia, as an official, can he understand it?"

"Look at the delegation today. The prince has run away and the saint is dead!"

"Mr. Xia, as the minister of the diplomatic corps, is so incompetent. If he returns to Dazhen, he will be dead! It's ok that you don't sympathize with him, but how can you gloat over his misfortune!"

As she spoke, Xu Zhoujiao made a sympathetic expression towards Xia Maoze, and comforted him: "This is the bad thing about being a subject. If the king wants the subject to die, you must die immediately. Hey, Lord Xia, please accept my condolences!"

Even if Xia Maoze was slow, he understood what was going on when he saw Xu Zhoujiao and Chi Long singing the same tune:

I fell into Xu Zhoujiao's trap!

The reason why she inquired about the whereabouts of the third prince was not to directly interfere in the marriage between the two countries.

Instead, he had to take the initiative to admit that the Third Prince had flaws in character and was not a qualified husband, thus cutting off Da Yan's idea of ​​marriage.

This method not only prevents Da Yin from being criticized, but also throws all the dirty laundry on Da Yan's head.

Not only will Da Yan's mission become a joke, but he will also face the situation of being held accountable by Dayin.

At the same time, the authority of the national teacher was completely destroyed.

It can be said that it accomplishes multiple things with one stone!

Thinking of how Xuzhou had played him around, Xia Maoze became angry and his face flushed red, and his emotions were completely out of control.

He pointed at the smug Xu Zhoujiao standing opposite him and roared, "Xu Zhoujiao, how dare you plot against me!"

"Master Xia, what you said is really harsh. How can it be considered shady? Wasn't this your own choice?"

Suddenly, a gust of sword wind rushed towards Xia Maoze's face, whistling. He hurriedly dodged and barely avoided this fatal blow.

Xia Maoze, who had just been through the gates of hell, touched his bleeding cheek and his face instantly turned blue with anger.

He glared at Chen Yuanlin who was drawing his sword against him, and Yinshan Beining who was standing aside watching the show.

He clenched his hands into fists again, trying his best to suppress his emotions: "What does Princess Beining mean by this!"

"Are you trying to kill people to silence them?"
