Make peace with the Lord of the Prairie

"Tuobahong is looking at you."

Emperor Qianyuan's words made Ming Heng stunned for a long time, unable to return to his senses.

"Father, what are you talking about... Tuobahong..."

"Tuobahong and I want you, and I want to marry you back to be the queen." Emperor Qianyuan walked out of the imperial case, helped him up himself, and took the initiative to add the second half of the sentence that Mingheng couldn't say.

Mingheng stared blankly at Emperor Qianyuan, trying to find clues from his face that it was just a joke.However, in the end he only saw seriousness and helplessness on his face.

Emperor Qianyuan reckoned that he was also in a complicated mood at this time, and he had already sighed no less than five times after seeing Mingheng.

Emperor Qianyuan sighed heavily for the sixth time, Mingheng blushed as if waking up from a dream, pointed at himself and squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth: "Keerchen is a man!"

"I don't know, so how can Tuobahong not know." Emperor Qianyuan said depressedly, "But that guy Tuobahong wants you—His Royal Highness King Hui of Anling."

"Why is this..." Ming Heng was puzzled, "I have never heard that Tuoba Hong likes a man."

Emperor Qianyuan took a deep look at him, with a look of scrutiny: "Do you know Tuobahong?"

"No!" Ming Heng shook his head violently, "I have never seen Tuoba Hong before, and I don't even know what he looks like."

"That's strange, why does that guy Tuobahong have to be you?" Emperor Qianyuan teased half-jokingly, "Could it be possible that you have taken a fancy to your face?"

"..."

Emperor Qianyuan turned Mingheng's face over and over three times, and guessed: "Your face is more like your mother than your sister, maybe it's because of this face that Tuobahong missed it." gone."

"..." For a moment, Ming Heng didn't know that his father was only joking and was serious.

Emperor Qianyuan got back to the topic again: "What do you think about the marriage?"

Mingheng lowered his head and remained silent for a long time: "My son... I don't want to." After speaking, he closed his eyes, waiting for Emperor Qianyuan to shout like a storm.

However, the expected emperor's wrath did not come, instead a short hearty chuckle was heard.

Mingheng opened his eyes in doubt, only to see that Emperor Qianyuan, who usually had a majestic face, was smiling slightly at this moment, and even his eyebrows and eyes were stretched.He nodded to Mingheng with satisfaction, and rarely praised directly: "It does have the backbone of being the prince of Anling."

Ming Heng thought about these words of Emperor Qian Yuan, and he was overjoyed, and quickly asked: "Father, did you refuse to marry him?"

However, Emperor Qianyuan's answer made his hope that had just risen up suddenly shattered again.

"No." Emperor Qianyuan said, "Tuobahong wants you very strongly. Not only is he willing to hire ten thousand horses, he even agrees to cede the north of Taze."

"Ceded Taze!"

Ming Heng was shocked.Taze is located at the border of Yerun and Anling.The complex topography of the half-grassland and half-mountain made its ownership a great controversy. Both Anling and Yerun wanted to divide this place into their own boundaries, but they failed to reach an agreement after several discussions. As a last resort, they only It can be divided and ruled with the Wangyue Mountain in the center of the Taze Basin as the dividing line.

Since Taze goes straight to the hinterland of Yerou in the north, and is close to the important border town of Anling in the south, losing Taze means opening the country to the other side, so for many years, neither party is willing to discuss the issue of Taze Make a step back.

However, this time, Tuobahong actually wanted to give up Taze for himself.How could Mingheng not be shocked.He had only seen such a deep friendship in the book of lingering and sentimental stories.A king of a country who has never met in person actually has a deep-rooted affection for him, which Ming Heng never dared to think about before.

What's going on here?

Wouldn't she become a demon concubine who would bring disaster to the country and the people?

Ming Heng never expected that things would turn out like this.I came here obviously to persuade my father not to let Jiu'er go to Yerou to get married, but who would have thought that in the end I would plead for myself.

However, he is no better than Jiu'er, and his father's affection for him has always been superficial.If it was Jiu'er, Emperor Qianyuan cherished her, and might refuse to marry because he was reluctant to let his daughter marry and suffer in the past, but if it was Ming Heng, I'm afraid he would not refuse easily.What's more, the other party's conditions are indeed very attractive, especially the ceding of Taze can be worth everything.

A large piece of land north of Taze can be exchanged for a prince who is not reused. This is a business that is sure to make money and not lose money. I am afraid that any king will not refuse to agree.And the hesitation of Emperor Qianyuan just proved this point.

In fact, after Mingheng heard that Ye Ruan was willing to cede the north of Taze just to make peace with himself, his heart suddenly fell to the lowest point, and he knew his end well.

He saw the hesitation and struggle in Emperor Qianyuan's eyes, but he couldn't hide his heartbeat.Perhaps, the only reason that prevents him from making an immediate choice at this time is that the prince's marriage is no better than the princess's marriage, not to mention that it is in the form of marriage, which somewhat damages the dignity of the royal family.

"Royal Father." Seeing that Emperor Qianyuan remained silent for a long time, Mingheng reminded him aloud.

Emperor Qianyuan came back to his senses, looking at Mingheng's calm gaze, he felt a little guilty for a moment, and his usual tough tone turned into a discussion: "We will discuss this matter later. Tuobahong will come to Beijing in person in three days, just to see you Yes. Why don't you spend a few days with him before making a decision."

Mingheng agreed.

At least for a while.We can only take one step at a time in the future.

The fact that Ye Ruo Da Khan took a fancy to the sixth prince of Anling and sent envoys to marry him quickly spread to every corner of the capital.The reaction of the common people was the same as that of Mingheng at the beginning, and they once suspected that they had heard it wrong.

The beautiful and charming Ninth Princess should not even fall in love with a man, there may be something wrong with this profuse sweating.

However, no matter how high the doubts from the outside world remained, Ye Ruan still unswervingly chose His Highness the Sixth Highness. In order to bring the future queen back to Ye Ruan as soon as possible, he even ran to the palace three times a day, tirelessly urging Emperor Qianyuan to hurry up. I promised, if that posture hadn't taken into account the relationship between the two countries, I would have grabbed it directly.

Emperor Qianyuan couldn't bear to be harassed, and was so annoyed by the harassment several times that he almost nodded in response.

Just when Emperor Qianyuan was about to let go, Tuobahong finally entered Beijing.

Tuobahong entered Beijing in the evening. Duke Wei led the imperial guards to greet him at the gate of the city, and Emperor Qianyuan also personally led officials to meet him at the gate of the palace.

As the sun was setting, under the escort of the imperial guards, a group of people slowly entered the palace gate.The person riding at the front was dressed in a tucked-in traditional costume, elegant and luxurious, with a gilded machete pinned to his waist; his head was braided, and the end of the braid was dotted with emeralds. He has a different kind of beauty; his figure is slightly thinner, which is somewhat different from the mighty and brave prairie man in the traditional impression, but his eyes hidden under a gilded mask are sharp and indifferent, with a wolf-like aura, full of danger and wildness.

Among the crowd, some officials whispered:

"This is Tuobahong, he doesn't look like a prairie man."

"Why doesn't it look like it? I think it looks very similar. Those eyes are so scary, they look like wolves."

"I heard that Tuobahong has a violent temperament and kills people without blinking an eye. You should pay attention to what you say. If you offend him, you may lose your life."

"I don't know what the face looks like under this mask. Although our Sixth Highness is a little mediocre in talent, he has the best looks. It's a pity to deserve such a disfigured face."

"Shh, stop talking, he is coming, be careful not to be heard!"

Tuoba Hong rode to the palace gate and led his followers to dismount and walk forward.Walking in front of Emperor Qianyuan, Tuobahong stopped, stretched his right hand in front of him, clenched his fist against his chest, bowed slightly and performed a tucking ceremony.

"His Majesty Emperor Qianyuan."

Emperor Qianyuan stretched out his hand to help him: "King Yerou doesn't need to be too polite, the boat and the car are exhausting. I have prepared a banquet for you, why don't you go to the Hall of Qinghe, let's chat while eating?"

The man with the gilt mask nodded, his indifferent eyes swept behind Emperor Qianyuan, staring at a certain place for a long time, then suddenly showed displeasure, and asked bluntly, "Why didn't you see the sixth prince?"

"Ah!"

In Chonghua Palace, Mingheng sneezed without warning, startled the little fan who was dozing off beside him, and even ran away after dozing off.

"Your Highness, did you catch a cold?"

Ming Heng rubbed his nose and shook his head: "No, it's just a little itchy. What time is it?"

"It's three o'clock in Youshi, King Yerou is probably here." Little Fan replied.

Mingheng gave a cold oh, but didn't continue to ask, and then looked down at the book again.

Today is the day for Tuoba Hong to enter Beijing.Even though it had been three days since the wedding, Mingheng still couldn't accept this absurd fact, so today when Tuobahong entered the capital, Emperor Qianyuan asked all the officials to welcome him, so he hid in the Chonghua Palace under the pretext of being sick.

Ming Heng is usually a gossip person, in the past, when encountering today's incident, even if he was absent for some reason, he would send a small fan to the scene to inquire about it, and then listen to him, in the end, he must not miss the important matter.But this time, he wished to get better and better with Tuoba Hong, so he didn't send his little fan out to inquire.

However, the more you don't want to know about some things, the more people rush to let you know.

Ming Heng hid well in his Chonghua Palace, when Ming Qianqian came to find him suddenly.

"Brother!" The lively and pleasant girl ran in hurriedly, holding the hem of her skirt.

Mingheng told helplessly: "Slow down, be careful not to fall."

Ming Qianqian ran to sit down opposite Ming Heng, and couldn't wait to ask: "Brother, why didn't you go to greet Tuoba Hong when he came to Beijing today?"

"I'm not feeling well, so I asked my father for leave." Mingheng asked his sister, "Have you visited?"

"I went secretly. I hid in the corner and no one noticed." Ming Qianqian shook her head triumphantly.

"What's there to see?" Ming Heng was disgusted, but couldn't help asking, "Did you see Tuobahong?"

"I saw it."

"What does Tuoba Hong look like?" Ming Heng asked curiously.

Ming Qianqian held his chin and recalled: "Well, he's quite tall, not particularly strong, and he can't see his face clearly with a mask on, but his voice is pretty nice. By the way, that person doesn't like to laugh, and he can't even talk to his father." It’s sullen, as if it’s about to turn against me the next moment.”

Mingheng was not surprised: "The legendary Tuoba Hong has a temperament of uncertainty, he is decisive in killing, and his relatives do not recognize him. In order to regain the throne, he beheaded his uncle with his own hands, and then threw his uncle's body into the wolf pile. There are no bones left.”

"Hey - so cruel." Ming Qianqian rubbed his arms violently, and then looked at his brother worriedly, "Brother, do you really want to make peace with such a person?"

Ming Heng's expression froze, these days Ming Qianqian came to him many times, but he never mentioned the matter of getting married, this was the first time he mentioned it.

"Everything has not yet been settled, and the marriage may not be possible," Mingheng thought optimistically, "Maybe Tuobahong himself will regret it first."

Ming Qianqian didn't take it seriously: "Just now, as soon as Tuobahong entered the palace gate, he asked where you were without saying a word."

"..."

"Brother, I think Tuobahong really likes you. If you regret it, it's probably suspended."

The author has something to say: Ming Heng: Tsk, bad luck!
