It is said that I was cannon fodder

Chapter 67 The Princess Who Was Cannon Fodder 14

Jin Guo, who was terrified by Qi Ran, handed over the peace agreement earlier, which is simply a letter of surrender.However, before the envoy of the Kingdom of Jin left the territory of the Kingdom of Jin, the news of Qi Ran's fall came, so the Kingdom of Jin began to move around again, and the originally agreed peace negotiation was delayed again and again.

Even after Qi Ran woke up, Jin Guo didn't make up his mind for a while.After all, the emperor of the Kingdom of Jin was not a fool. King Jing'an obviously had a quarrel with the Daxi royal family, and it was the most beneficial choice for the Kingdom of Jin to reap the benefits of the fisherman.

But they didn't expect that the always lonely and cold King Jing'an actually accepted the marriage gift from Emperor Daxi. No matter how powerful the Emperor Jin is, it would be impossible for them to find out the strange change of Gu Jinyu. Make a plan to send envoys to negotiate peace.

It's just that the time when the envoy arrived was several months late, and an extra princess was added to it. I don't know if the emperor of the Jin Kingdom wants to follow the example of Emperor Daxi and come up with a beauty trick.

When the envoy from the Kingdom of Jin arrived, he could clearly sense Daxi's negligence.Although the other party's superficial skills are very good, and there is no fault in the etiquette, but a kind of contempt and irony can be felt everywhere.

After Daxi's people arranged them to the embassy, ​​no one paid any attention to them. Whenever they mentioned that they wanted to meet the emperor, they were dismissed by the emperor as unwell.

"They bullied people too much! Do they really think that we Jin Kingdom are easy to bully?!" Guan Boyuan, the third prince of Jin Kingdom, smashed a teacup in anger.

"If we lose the war with Daxi, we will naturally have to bear the consequences." Princess Yuexi watched him go crazy, and said coldly, "It's just a show of power, why should the emperor get angry?"

Guan Boyuan said angrily: "But Daxi is too much, even a eunuch dares to belittle us!"

"If Daxi is defeated and goes to the Kingdom of Jin, the treatment will not be much better, and it may even be too much. Instead of getting angry about this matter, Brother Huang, why not think about how we can fulfill the expectations of our father."

Hearing Princess Yuexi's calm voice as always, Guan Boyuan was embarrassed.Although he is the elder brother, he is quite afraid of his younger sister.Moreover, the real caller of this trip is not him, but his imperial sister.With this in mind, he honestly explained the news he had inquired these days.

"The Princess Ninghua married by King Jing'an is quite popular among the people, she has done a lot in farming, and even founded a women's school on a whim.

But this princess's reputation within Daxi is not good, and almost everyone tacitly agrees that those reputations are manipulated by King Jing'an behind his back, and they deliberately create momentum for her, which shows that she is very popular with King Jing'an.Those who have opinions on her establishment of a women's school can only speak ill of her behind her back, and dare not speak out. "

Hearing the word "women's school", Princess Yuexi's heart moved slightly, and she quickly restrained her emotions and asked, "How has this princess been?"

"Beautiful as a flower, lonely and arrogant, this is the evaluation of her by outsiders. This princess rarely shows up, and every time she does, she is often accompanied by her friends and rarely communicates with other people. His two friends are not low-status. One One is Daxi's youngest sister of the prime minister, and the other is the daughter-in-law of the former Duke of Qi's mansion and now the marquis' mansion of Qi State.

But the princess is said to have changed after the engagement was made.There are rumors that the reason why she married King Jing'an was plotted by her elder brother, a compatriot of her mother, and now the two have completely broken up. "

Although Guan Boyuan's personality is a little irritable, he is actually quite knowledgeable about current affairs, and he is also good at inquiring about news. Even though he has been treated coldly in Daxi these days, he has not forgotten to collect information everywhere.

Princess Yuexi couldn't help but ponder when she heard the words.When King Jing'an was guarding the border, she also disguised herself as a man and went to the barracks. She had seen one or two wars, and she also knew something about King Jing'an.

To be honest, she didn't quite believe that King Jing'an would bow down for beauty.After learning that King Jing'an was awake, many people in the Kingdom of Jin speculated that King Jing'an would directly resist the order and refuse to marry, but the result was unexpected.

Unlike most people who think that King Jing'an has fallen headlong into Ruanxiang, she thinks that the princess must have some talent in order to attract King Jing'an, a cold-blooded weapon of war.

What the folks say is not untrue, and what the nobles think is not untrue.This world has a lot of restrictions on women, and people often want to put ignorant and short-sighted hats on women.

Especially those court nobles and court officials, when women have done more than them, they take it for granted that all this is done by the man who sheltered them, stupid and arrogant.

The same is true of herself, even if her father dotes on her and allows her to go to the battlefield to watch the battle, her father never thinks highly of her, just because she is a woman.

Even if she has shown her talent and resourcefulness, the most important task she gets is to go to Daxi as an envoy, to be in charge of peace talks and marriage. Her whole life can only be entrusted to a person who is enough to be her father or that person's son, forever Make a vassal.

She was unwilling and resented, but it was of no avail. In the end, she could only silently accept her own ending.

But at the moment when she was almost resigned to her fate, she found a woman who might be as unwilling as her, and a flame ignited in her heart again. Even if the result could not be changed, it at least proved that she was not alone.

Seeing that she was silent, Guan Boyuan didn't dare to disturb her, so he sat down silently at the side until the girl whispered.

"Do you know how to meet that Princess Ninghua?"

"Ah?" Guan Boyuan didn't react for a moment, and he was stunned for a while before he said, "Three days later, Princess Ning'an of Daxi will hold a plum appreciation feast, and she also handed us a post. Princess Ninghua should also go."

"En." Princess Yuexi responded softly, and fell into silence again.

Guan Boyuan, who was left out in the cold, didn't know what she meant, wanted to ask but didn't dare to ask, looking restless.

Princess Yuexi didn't know if she noticed his appearance, and said lightly: "It's getting late, Brother Huang, let's go to rest earlier."

The corner of Guan Boyuan's mouth twitched, feeling like he would throw it away after being used up, but he didn't say anything, and left honestly.

Compared with Gu Jinyu and Princess Shou'an, Princess Ning'an is not favored, but the emperor will not lose face when he marries his daughter.

In particular, Princess Ning'an was the first princess of the royal family to marry, and the emperor specially rewarded Princess Ning'an with a plum garden to show her favor.

In winter, Princess Ning'an will post a post to hold a plum appreciation banquet, and young men and women can meet each other at this time, and ordinary noble ladies and sons will not touch her face.

The original owner had also been there in previous years, mostly because of Meng Wan. This year, Gu Jinyu didn't want to go out. He was not a real princess, and he didn't want to be among the ladies and listen to their boudoir talk.

Originally, he had made a decision, but when he found out that Princess Yuexi, who was sent by the Kingdom of Jin, was deliberately inquiring about him, he was a little curious, so he changed his mind.

After the two arrived at Qinfang Garden, someone led the way, and the male and female seats were temporarily separated. Originally, the two of them should have separated halfway, but Qi Ran insisted on sending him there first.

In front of everyone, Qi Ran tidied up the snow-white fox fur on his body very carefully, leaned close to him and whispered: "Call me if you have anything to do."

Gu Jinyu knew that he wanted to make face for herself, so she didn't care about him, so she straightened his collar for him, naturally and intimately.

The interaction between the two fell in the eyes of outsiders, and everyone looked different.

Princess Ning'an greeted her with a smile, said some polite words to Qi Ran, and didn't care about his indifference. After he left, she joked to Gu Jinyu: "Fifth sister was born with good fortune, and she has a deep relationship with the prince. See how the prince treats you." Like pearls and treasures, it is really enviable."

The noble ladies who followed along also joined in the fun, some with good intentions, and some jealous. Gu Jinyu only kept a shy smile and did not answer.

Chu Liuli found an opportunity to take him out of the crowd, to meet up with Meng Wan who was waiting at the side.

The three of them got together to chat about the recent situation, both Chu Liuli and Meng Wan were happy for him, although they had heard rumors that King Jing'an treated him very well before, but it would be better to confirm it personally for peace of mind.

After a while, a servant girl announced the arrival of the princess from the Kingdom of Jin, and the surrounding atmosphere fell silent.

The princess Yuexi was dressed in a lake-green jacket and skirt, with a string of beads on her forehead, her bright eyes were like a bay spring in the cold winter, with a bit of alienation and coldness.

The surroundings were quiet for a long time before I heard Princess Ning'an's smiling voice: "It's really a distinguished guest. In the past, I only heard that Princess Yuexi is the number one beauty in the Kingdom of Jin. Today, seeing her is even more rumored."

"Yuexi's face is so plain, she can't be praised by Princess Ning'an." Princess Yuexi's bright eyes were lightly closed, and she searched the venue for half a circle without any trace.

Hearing the two talking, the surroundings resumed being lively again, but I don't know whether it was intentional or not, except for Princess Ning'an, the host, no one came forward to chat with Princess Yuexi.

"This princess Yuexi is indeed as beautiful as a flower and jade, but she is still not as beautiful as Sister Jin." Chu Liuli looked between the two for a while, and finally concluded, "Besides, I haven't seen you for a long time, Sister Jin It's getting better and better."

Gu Jinyu raised her eyebrows, "Your mouth is getting sweeter, I'm afraid you wiped it with honey before going out."

Chu Liuli took his arm and said with a smile: "I'm telling the truth, if you don't believe me, you can ask Sister Wan."

Meng Wan smiled softly, her apricot eyes curved, and agreed: "Ah Jin is indeed looking better."

The two of them are telling the truth. After seeing each other for more than half a year, Gu Jinyu's appearance has grown a bit, with a sharp beauty.Especially a pair of phoenix eyes, which seem to be full of broken stars, mysterious and quiet, occasionally revealing a little smile, which makes people reluctant to look away.

The three gathered together to laugh and laugh, and when the late Princess Shou'an arrived, Princess Ning'an called everyone to join the men's table, and Gu Jinyu and the three fell behind.

"Princess Ninghua, can I take a moment to speak?" Princess Yuexi, who had been quietly staying aside, took the initiative to keep her. Chu Liuli and Meng Wan were surprised and wary.

Only Gu Jinyu looked at it quietly for a while, and then said: "You two go there first, I will look for you later."

"Ajin..."

"If you are really worried, when you see King Jing'an, send a message for me and tell him that I am here."

Hearing this, Meng Wan looked at the two of them, stopped persuading them, and took Chu Liuli away.

The two asked the maid to guard around, seeing no outsiders, Princess Yuexi saluted him: "I heard that the princess founded a women's school to strive for a place for women all over the world. Yuexi admires it very much."

Seeing that her eyes were full of sincerity, Gu Jinyu didn't seem to be faking, and she already had some guesses about the princess's intentions.

There are not many descriptions of her in the plot, but seeing that she dared to poison Emperor Daxi in the future, she would be benevolent if she failed, so it can be seen that she is also a ruthless character, but now she is touched by his casual actions.

"Princess Yuexi praised her absurdly. Ninghua has also heard about what the princess did in the Kingdom of Jin. The princess has a benevolent heart, and the common people have suffered a lot."

Princess Yuexi didn't seem to understand the alienation in his words, and smiled wryly: "There are many people like me in the world, but only the princess dares to start a women's school. I am not as brave as the princess."

Gu Jinyu chuckled, the princess wanted to find comfort and approval from him, but unfortunately she found the wrong one.

"The women's school in Ninghua's hands is just a flash in the pan. Why should Princess Yuexi deceive herself? Ninghua relied on King Jing'an's power to achieve this, but if she wanted it to last for a long time, she had to control the power herself. It’s still far away, as for what Ninghua did before, it’s nothing more than nothing.”

After saying this, Gu Jinyu turned and left without waiting for anyone to answer. As for what the princess could understand from his words, it was none of his business.

After leaving the sight of the princess, he found a pavilion to rest. After finding out the purpose of the princess Yuexi, he lost interest and didn't want to face the second prince's temptation.

On the other side, Meng Wan and the two brought the conversation, and Qi Ran came to look for Gu Jinyu without delay, and happened to be on the same road as Guan Boyuan who was looking for his sister.

Feeling the bitter cold around him, Guan Boyuan groaned secretly in his heart. He hated, feared and respected Qi Ran, and didn't dare to provoke him at this time. After walking for a while, he took the initiative to turn into another fork in the road. Take a long breath.

After passing a corner and continuing to move forward, he saw a pavilion shaded by plum blossoms. Among them was a woman in a white fox fur, with a little red under the snow-white fur. Like a bright sea of ​​stars, red lips like delicate petals, like a fairy in a painting.

Guan Boyuan's heart was beating violently for a moment, and he felt the woman's long eyelashes caressing his chest like feathers, making his heart itchy.

He couldn't help but stepped forward, and there was another person in the perfect picture in front of him. He had seen that person before, and it was Da Xi's famous young prime minister.

Guan Boyuan stopped in his tracks, suspicious in his heart, but saw that the prime minister was holding a red plum, intending to adorn the fairy's hair, but the fairy didn't dodge or evade, as if acquiescing to this intimacy.

He just felt his heart shatter into several petals with a "click", and then he received the prime minister's ostentatious and warning smile, he couldn't help but clenched his fists, and finally left angrily.

After he left, Chu Yechen smiled and said, "Look, I cut off a rotten peach blossom for you, you have to thank me very much."

Gu Jinyu brushed away the plum blossom with no expression of joy or anger: "The prime minister's so-called help is at the price of my reputation?"

Chu Yechen was startled for a moment, and then regret rose in his heart. He was also temporarily impulsive just now, seeing that man's eyes were not pure, it was rare for him to act impulsively.

"Sorry, it's me, Meng Lang, today."

"What's the use of a verbal apology?"

"What does the princess think?"

"If the prime minister sincerely apologizes, it's better to rescue my unsatisfactory brother, so that he won't suffer from confinement. In addition, it will also give him a chance to see the demeanor of the most beautiful woman in the Kingdom of Jin."

Chu Yechen's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said meaningfully: "The princess really misses your brother all the time."

"Shouldn't I miss him?"

"Yes, of course." Chu Yechen smiled, "But the princess has created a big problem for me."

"The prime minister doesn't have to agree, after all I'm just a weak woman, how can I handle you, prime minister?"
