sick princess

The rumors of the palace people soon spread to the sixth princess, Ji Changle.

Ever since Bei Rong proposed a marriage proposal, the sixth princess has been anxious.

Ji Changle comes from a humble background and has a cowardly personality. She has no extraordinary talent, appearance, or grace.Over the years, she has been in this palace like a transparent person.

When the fifth princess Ji Qinghan bullied her, she didn't dare to say a word; when the third princess Ji Mingmo ordered her, she didn't dare to say "no"; abnormal.

Ji Changle lives so cautiously and endures day after day, just so that one day she can leave this suffocating palace and live a more comfortable life.

Ji Changle can tolerate and give in to other things, but she is absolutely unwilling to accept this matter.If she was really sent to Beirong to get married, her life would be ruined!Not to mention the harsh climate, barren and desolate land, and tough folk customs in Beirong. This generation of Beirong royal family is brave and aggressive, and ambitious. If she really married Beirong, it would be fine for Beirong and Daxia to live in peace in the future. , once the two sides go to war, she will immediately become an abandoned child!

Ji Changle bit her lower lip, thinking viciously in her heart, why!Why, when there were good things in the past, it was others who got them, and when bad luck happened, she was the first to think of her?Ji Baoluo and Ji Qinghan are the daughters of their father, could it be that she just picked them up?

Ji Changle, who had something in mind, was inattentive and almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, the maid beside her helped her, otherwise, she might suffer now.

Ji Changle had just stepped into the courtyard where her mother Liang Shunyi lived, when she saw Liang Shunyi pounced on her, pulling her and crying, "My miserable son, why are you so miserable! I heard that the emperor is already thinking about getting married." What happened... Those Beirong people drink blood, they are barbaric and rude, you, a delicate princess, went to Beibei, where is there a way to survive!"

This timid and cowardly woman who was promoted from a court lady cried very sadly, as if she was about to say goodbye to the daughter she raised with one hand.

Although Ji Changle was upset, she had always had a very good relationship with Liang Shunyi's mother and daughter. Seeing that Liang Shunyi was so worried about her own affairs, she comforted Liang Shunyi: "Mother and concubine, don't worry, this matter is still uncertain. If you want to get married, it may not be me - there are precedents for choosing a woman from the clan or ordinary official family, making her a princess, and sending her to the border for a marriage."

Liang Shunyi didn't believe Ji Changle's words at all, and cried even more sadly: "But the situation is different this time. The Beirong people are coming so fiercely that even the northern garrison can't stop them. The Beirong king has already I have made a request, if you want them to retreat, you must present the real princess of the royal family, a girl from an offshoot of the clan or a girl from an ordinary official family, even if they get the title of princess, they will not recognize it!"

"The real royal princess... the real royal princess is only the fifth princess, the seventh princess and you. Concubine Zhou will never let her daughter get married, and Queen Xu and the crown prince will not just watch the seventh princess go to get married. , only our mother and son, alone in the palace, with no one to rely on..." Liang Shunyi became more and more sad as she thought about it: "They are both the emperor's children, why should my daughter be sent to be ruined? Although I am useless Yes, but you are a real golden branch and jade leaf!"

When Ji Changle heard this, she smiled miserably: "Golden branches and jade leaves? Who in this palace really treats me as a golden branch and jade leaf? When it's okay, I'm the follower of the other sisters. When things happen, they push me out to top the vat. Although I'm nominally She is a princess, but in the eyes of those women in the harem, she is probably not as good as a slave."

"Why are slaves not slaves? You are a princess of gold and jade, how can you be compared with slaves? If you say these words again, you will goug out the heart of your mother and concubine." Liang Shunyi covered Ji Changle's mouth.Xu Shi was ridiculed by slaves and maids a lot on weekdays, and she couldn't hear the word slaves, especially when it was said from the mouth of a daughter.

Ji Changle shook her head, and did not continue this topic: "No matter what, I will never go for a kiss."

Liang Shunyi had an intuition that something was about to happen, and asked tremblingly, "You... what are you going to do?"

"Mother, concubine, tell me, if I lie on the bed and become unconscious, can my father still send me to marry? Will Beirong accept such a princess?" Ji Changle stared at the high steps under her feet , a flash of determination flashed in his eyes.

……

It was only a few days after Beirong sent the intention to marry Daxia, the sixth princess, Ji Changle, rolled down the steps because of being overly frightened and in a daze.

It is said that the sixth princess was seriously injured this time. Although she managed to save her life with difficulty, if she is not raised for three to five years, the injury on her body will not recover.Even if it is cured, there is a high possibility that she will have scars on her body.

Some people in the palace praised the sixth princess for being smart. If she fell like this, even if Emperor Zhaode really intended to send the princess to Beirong for marriage, he would not choose the sixth princess.Although the skin and flesh suffered a little, but in exchange for An Sheng for the rest of his life, this deal is worthwhile.

Others felt that the sixth princess really wanted to die in order not to get married.On such a high step, she dares to "stumble", isn't she afraid of any accident?This move seems clever, but in fact it is extremely stupid.Not to mention whether this fall will leave any sequelae for the sixth princess, let's just talk about the incident itself, the intention of getting married was only heard from Beirong, and the sixth princess had an accident immediately, did Emperor Zhaode Still can't think of why?

Even if the sixth princess did stay in the palace as she wished, I'm afraid she would be rejected by Emperor Zhaode in the future.

In Changchun Palace, Concubine Zhou Gui and Mo Zhu's master and servant were quite satisfied when they heard the news.

"It's still the master who is wise. First, he sent someone to inform the sixth princess that King Beirong wanted to marry Princess Daxia, and then sent someone to Liang Shunyi's ear, telling Liang Shunyi how terrible King Beirong was, scaring Liang Shunyi enough... otherwise , this mother and daughter, I'm afraid they can't make up their minds so quickly."

Falling down the stairs by oneself is a kind of death after all.If she hadn't been forced to have nowhere to go, how could the sixth princess have chosen such a path?

"Without the Sixth Princess, the best marriage candidates are our princess and Longevity Princess."

Concubine Zhou sighed, she looked at Dan Kou on her finger, and said: "I want to share the worries of the country and the emperor, but Han'er's temper has become more and more unpredictable recently, and she is crazy all day long. How can she take on the important task of marriage with her like this? If she is really allowed to marry Beirong, I don't know whether it is marriage or hatred. "

"What the master said is that in this case, we have to bother Princess Changshou. Princess Changshou has always been extremely intelligent, and even the emperor is full of praise. She will definitely fulfill the important task of marrying. Besides, she is the younger sister of the current prince. Precious, only by her coming forward to make a marriage can we show how much my Great Xia attaches importance to the diplomatic relations between the two countries."

Mo Zhu glanced at Concubine Zhou Gui, and the master and servant showed a tacit smile.

Soon, these words reached Emperor Zhaode's ears.

In the past few days, because of the Beirong's invasion, Emperor Zhaode was in a state of desperation, and naturally he was not in a good mood.

He was also thinking about whether to reject Bei Rong's proposal and fight to the end with him, or to negotiate peace with Bei Rong immediately.

This assault of Beirong really caught Daxia off guard. Because the coach was killed, food, grass and weapons were in short supply due to the occupation of several cities and the robbing of supplies.Seeing that Daxia's losses were getting bigger and bigger, Emperor Zhaode's heart gradually shifted from the side of the main station to the side of the main peace faction.

What those peacemakers said was also reasonable. If the fight continues like this, I'm afraid the situation will become more difficult to control.It's better to take advantage of the present and stop the loss in time.

Now Daxia hasn't lost too badly, and at this time to make peace, there can be more room for Daxia.If you really wait until Daxia has suffered a crushing defeat before making peace with Beirong, you will have to be slaughtered.

To be forced into such a situation by a small country whose land area is less than one-tenth of Daxia's is naturally a shame for Emperor Zhaode.But if you keep the green hills, you don't have to worry about no firewood.It's the same when the Daxia army regroups in the future, and then fights over to teach the Beirong people a lesson.

Now that the possibility of a marriage has been considered, the candidate for the marriage is naturally the first thing to consider.

Originally, according to Emperor Zhaode's idea, it was most appropriate to send the sixth princess to marry.This daughter has always been cautious, if she is the one to make the marriage, although she is not expected to do anything, at least there will be no trouble.

Baoluo is Emperor Zhaode's beloved daughter and lucky star, so she can't let Baoluo go to marry. Ji Qinghan is Zhou Guifei's beloved daughter, and she is currently sick, so she is not suitable for marriage. Of course, there are only six princesses left. Ji Changle.

However, at this juncture, Ji Changle rolled down the steps, was seriously injured and passed out, and is still lingering on the sick bed!

Emperor Zhaode's dissatisfaction with Liang Shunyi and the sixth princess reached its peak.But now, it's not the time to attack, the most important thing is to solve the problem.

Emperor Zhaode was just thinking about whether to let the fifth princess, Ji Qinghan, go to marry him, but when he arrived at the Changchun Palace, he saw that the fifth princess was gloomy and crazy, and couldn't help frowning.

Concubine Zhou wiped her tears and repeated to Emperor Zhaode what she had said to Mo Zhu: "...As a royal princess, Han'er has enjoyed the support of the people since birth. Now that the people are in trouble, Han'er is naturally obliged Although the concubine does not want to marry Han'er away, she is even more reluctant to embarrass the emperor..." The words were righteous and awe-inspiring.

"It's just..." Concubine Zhou carefully observed Emperor Zhaode's face: "The emperor has seen Han'er's current appearance. If she goes to Beirong, I am afraid that not only will she not be able to improve the relationship between Daxia and Beirong, but she will also go to Beirong. It will add chaos to the emperor... Beirong people will not accept such a princess of Daxia as their queen."

"The concubine knows that the emperor is reluctant to part with Princess Longevity, but for the present plan, I can only ask Princess Longevity to make some sacrifices for the sake of the people of the world and the peace of our Great Xia border."
