Hard to be a good wife

"Zhao'er, the princess of Beiyue has chosen you to be her son-in-law, would you like it?" the King of Southern Jin asked jokingly.

Prince Zhao had no expression on his face, as if he wasn't the one who provoked the rotten love, he replied calmly: "Reporting to my father, my son already has a wife, and I don't want to let others down."

"Oh, you didn't hear that when you came here, that Princess Liyang is willing to condescend to be your concubine, and in your house...cough cough, she is a man after all, so there should be a decent woman for you Loose leaves are good."

Prince Zhao shook his head and said, "Your ministers don't need equal wives."

He spoke resolutely, and all the ministers present heard his resolute meaning. Some admired his dedication, while some shook their heads secretly, thinking that His Royal Highness is good at everything, but he is too confused about feelings.

It's nothing to like a man. In the future, he will be included in the harem, and he can pamper him as much as he wants, love him as much as he wants, why bother to offend Longyan for him at this time?

The King of Southern Jin agreed to Prince Zhao marrying a male wife just to balance his power, but he was more concerned about whether the son would be obedient or not.

When the old county king saw the Southern Jin king's face changed slightly, he stood up and said loudly: "This marriage between the north and the south is related to the peace of the two countries. As the crown prince of a country, even if he doesn't like it, he should do his best for the country. The old minister thinks that this matter can be settled by the king's bestowal of marriage."

It means: Why do children love each other for such a major national event? If a piece of imperial edict is issued, can Prince Zhao still resist the edict?

"Your Majesty, this marriage between the North and the South is indeed a major event, but because it is a major event, Your Majesty should be cautious. His Highness the Crown Prince is unwilling to marry the Princess of North Vietnam. If the Princess is treated badly in the future, won't it damage the relationship between the two countries even more?" I feel sorry for my grandson, and I don't want to force him on a woman he doesn't like.

What's more, the princess of North Vietnam is not a sweet bun. The conflict between the North and the South has always existed, and it is impossible to end it just because she married a princess, so the benefits that this Princess Liyang can bring are limited.

At best, she was just an excuse for the two countries to suspend the struggle. When North Vietnam regained its national strength, how could it care about her?

"It's a joke, how can my majestic Crown Prince of the Southern Jin Dynasty treat the princess of North Vietnam badly?" The old king had an expression of "you are talking nonsense".

An Guogong didn't answer him, but bent down to the king of Nanjin, who was the leader, and said, "Marriage is a big matter, naturally it is your love and I would like to be better."

It is said that twisted melons are not sweet, but don't in-laws fail to make it and become enemies instead, although the two countries are enemies in the first place.

"What does the Marquis of Liyang think? If the widow bestows marriage on the crown prince, will Aiqing have any complaints?"

Liyanghou kept his head down in Chaoshang today, sullen. Anyone can see that he is not happy, but everyone can understand his mood. Marrying a son is already a loss, and it is necessary to let his son be equal to a woman. Sharing a husband is of course even less cost-effective.

Hearing the question from the King of Southern Jin, Liyanghou finally raised his head, and replied sternly: "Of course I don't want His Highness the Crown Prince to marry any princess. It's been less than half a year since my dog's son married into the Crown Prince's mansion. too cruel."

Liyanghou's eyes were red as he spoke, and he glared at Prince Zhao in front of everyone. At this moment, everyone realized that when His Royal Highness wanted to marry Liyanghou's son, this person strongly opposed it.

Prince Zhao felt something in his heart, he only felt that his father-in-law was regretting marrying his only son to him, and thinking about what Tang Yue said, he felt depressed immediately.

He didn't want to give Liyang Hou a chance to get his son back, nor did he want to give Tang Yue a reason to abandon him.

"Father, this time it is the North Vietnam asking for peace, why should we agree to whatever request they make? What if my son refuses to agree?"

Prince Zhao's last words were addressed to the North Vietnamese envoy. His sharp eyes and cold expression made the civil envoy turn pale with fright.

However, North Vietnam is a big country that has been strong for a long time, so the envoy would not be too timid, and argued with force: "Does His Royal Highness want to continue to fight against our country?"

Before Prince Zhao could answer, several princes shouted: "If you want to fight, fight, if you want peace, don't ask for peace!"

Although the courtiers of the Southern Jin Dynasty also had those who were greedy for life and feared death, some who sought advantages and avoided disadvantages, and some selfish people who disrupted the government, they were generally able to maintain unity when dealing with the outside world.

All of a sudden, both generals and civil servants stood up and expressed their views, "Your Majesty, I think that if North Vietnam has such an attitude, it is better to go to war!"

The King of Southern Jin was very satisfied with this situation. He waved his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and then cheerfully said to the Beiyue envoy, "Why don't the ambassador go back and ask to see if the Beiyue King wants to continue the war, or... to renegotiate the terms?" .”

Without waiting for the other party to answer, the King of Nanjin stood up, swept his clothes, and walked away with his hands behind his back. Only a sharp voice echoed in the hall: "Back to the court..."

Prince Zhao walked out of the hall first, followed by Duke An trotting after him.

"Your Highness...Your Highness...you are too impulsive today." The old Duke criticized with disapproval.

He is Prince Zhao's pro-grandfather, so naturally everything is for him, so even if he is a lesson to Prince Zhao, he will listen to him.

"Grandfather doesn't have to worry, he insists on this matter alone, and he will never nod for fame and profit."

"If the king orders the marriage, don't be confused." An Guogong did not have any objections to this marriage at the beginning, but firstly, he could not control Prince Zhao's marriage, and secondly, Tang Yue did save Prince Zhao. For his fate, the Marquis of Liyang has strong financial resources and has something to rely on.

Prince Zhao replied as if he had nothing to do with the matter: "Then wait for the father to make an order."

Seeing that he couldn't be persuaded, An Guogong had no choice but to retreat, but another person chased after him, half a step behind Prince Zhao, and said with a smile: "I haven't seen my son for a long time, I wonder if he is okay?"

It turned out to be Duke Heng who always loved his son.

Prince Zhao nodded: "Your son is willing to endure hardships, and possesses extraordinary powers, so he is a man who can be made."

After receiving Prince Zhao's comment, Heng Guogong Lao Huai comforted him, stroked his beard and was very happy, so he euphemistically expressed his support for His Highness the Prince's decision.

It is not unreasonable for Duke Heng to prefer the Marquis of Liyang. He is optimistic about Tang Yue, a young man, and he is [-]% satisfied with his new daughter-in-law. Naturally, he does not want any unstable factors to destroy this triangular relationship.

Prince Zhao was also kind to him. In the court, it is not easy for An Guogong to stand up and speak for him. Often the first person to defend him is the one in front of him. Naturally, the relationship between the two families is firmly bound together.

Moreover, Prince Zhao also appreciates Duke Heng's efforts to protect his son. Compared with Duke Zhen, Duke Heng's emphasis on love and righteousness is commendable.

Said that Cao Cao arrived, and as soon as Duke Heng walked away, the Duke of Zhen who had just been despised by him approached.

A series of blows made Lord Zhen Guo aged several years, and his hair was mostly gray, showing his old appearance.

Prince Zhao didn't wait to see him, so his expression paled naturally, and he stood aside, waiting for him to speak first.

Lord Zhen hesitated for a moment, and asked tentatively, "I wonder if Your Highness has seen my rebellious son recently?"

The corner of Prince Zhao's mouth ticked slightly, and he said harshly, "I heard that the Duke has already kicked your son out of the house, and he will open the ancestral hall soon to remove him. What's the point of asking him at this time?"

"This...that's just a moment of anger. As long as the rebellious son is willing to bow his head and admit his mistake, the matter will be exposed."

Prince Zhao couldn't help looking at him a few more times, and thought: Years of comfortable life have worn away all the vigor of this former great general, leaving only decay and stupidity.

I really don't know why he has such a naive idea, does he think that Zhao Sanying will go back and forth?

"You can say this to your son yourself, I am not responsible for passing on the message." After finishing speaking, he stopped looking at Duke Zhen, got on his horse, and went back to the mansion.

When he went home and told Tang Yue about this, Tang Yue was really very angry, "How did this old man grow his heart? Can he do whatever he wants if he is an elder?"

"He will reap the consequences." Prince Zhao reassured.

Tang Yue sneered: "It's inevitable, we'll just wait and see if his beloved eldest son can give him a peaceful and prosperous old age."

Tang Yue didn't tell Zhao Sanyun about this little episode, but even if he wanted to say it, he couldn't meet his people. Since Mrs. Zhen Guogong's wife's condition stabilized, Tang Yue never saw him again.

"Is Princess Liyang beautiful?" Tang Yue asked suddenly.

Prince Zhao raised his brows, and his forehead suddenly ached, and he knew that it was not so easy to turn the page.

"I don't know, and I haven't seen it."

"Oh... I heard that she is the number one beauty in North Vietnam. I want to see how beautiful it is." Tang Yue lived in the 21st century. What kind of beauty has he never seen?I really can't imagine what kind of beauty that Lao Shizi's number one beauty can be.

After coming here, the most beautiful woman he has ever seen should be Princess Tangxi, and the most attractive woman should be Princess Huizhu. I don't know which one this Princess Liyang prefers.
