Vol 3 Chapter 646: Maiden

Qi Ning drank a cup of tea and calmed down, but the prince groaned slightly before asking: "Jin Yihou, it is not that this palace is against your speculation, it is just your speculation, is there any alarmist? The Northern Han is now with me How can a nation form an alliance and send troops to Qi State before it is written? "
Qi Ning said with a smile: "His Royal Highness, I also bluntly say that the strength of the Northern Han Dynasty is far above Qi's. His Royal Highness is clearer than me. Their plot to align with the country was not overnight. They had attacked Qi at that time. No longer aligning the country to use soldiers, it is not that their coveted heart has disappeared, it is just that Chu State has been consuming them. "
"You are not false." The crown prince saw Qi Ning speak frankly and nodded slightly: "This palace also admits that if there is no Chu State, the Northern Han will not be so honest."
Qi Ning smiled faintly: "Han Kingdom welcomes Princess Tianxiang, and he has already destroyed the alliance between Qi State and my Dachu. He turned back and recaptured Maling Mountain. What did His Highness think they would be worried about? The reputation makes the people of the world feel that they are fighting back in the Northern Han Dynasty? Your Highness, it is really easy to find an excuse to recapture Maling Mountain. When it is time for some mass murders of people in Maling Mountain County, do you think it will be difficult? "
"My generals have strict discipline and will never ...!" The prince cut the nail, but only said a few words, and seemed to understand, and did not continue.
The crown prince is a wise man, and what Qi Ning said, he instantly understood that before the Qi State has fully integrated the Malingshan counties into the Qi State system, there must be party members left by the Han people in these places. It is not difficult to create some horrifying incidents in the counties of Maling Mountain, and thus planting it on the Qi State. Once these things happen, the Han people will find an excuse to make a comeback.
Qi Ning knew that the prince had understood, and continued: "His Highness certainly does not think that the Northern Han people will care about me Chu." Qi Ning put down the tea cup and slowly said: "Once Qi and Han are married, you are yourself. People, if there is any misunderstanding between your two countries, my Chu State will certainly not be able to intervene. At least if the Han State only recaptures Maling Mountain and does not invade the Qi State, I certainly will not act lightly. "
Qi Ning has already said this very clearly.
At this time, the Qi State is greedy for the immediate profit. Because the Han State ceded Maling Mountain and married Tian Tianxiang to the Han State, then if it offended the Chu State, the Chu State will be humiliated. If the Han State turns back, it will retake the horse. In the Lingshan counties, the Chu State has just been humiliated, and naturally will not send troops to assist the Qi State.
The prince thought deeply, and after a moment, he finally sighed: "The people of the Qiyi family are really extraordinary." He shook his head and said, "It's a pity that I don't have a character like Hou Ye in Daqi. The heart technique was actually seen by Hou Ye at a glance. "
Qi Ning said with a smile: "His Royal Highness, I just guessed it and did not make it true. However, Ning Xinxin has its credibility and nothing. His Royal Highness still has to be careful to guard against the Han people coming here." Sighed and said: "His Royal Highness, Qi is also a person who knows the current affairs. I ca n’t hide from you that the conditions put forward by the Han Kingdom cannot be raised by the Chu State, so this time my hopes for a big marriage between Chu and Qi State are slim. Before leaving, the emperor There is a purpose, whether it is good news or bad news, we must send it back to Jianye Beijing City as soon as possible, so I am ready to write a discount today and send people to send it back non-stop. "
The prince said immediately: "How do you plan to say?"
"Naturally, it is necessary to play the current situation to the emperor." Qi Ning sighed: "Emperor Shengming, this time I failed to ask for a marriage, there is a reason for it, and Sheng Shang should be able to forgive."
The prince smiled and said: "Hou Ye shouldn't be so anxious. The father emperor hosted a banquet tonight to suppress Hou Ye. After that tonight, Hou Ye sent the emperor to your emperor no later."
Qi Ning said, "Oh," the prince said: "Hou Ye, there is something suspicious in this palace, and I have to ask you for advice."
"Your Highness has any advice but it's okay." Qi Ning said with a smile: "Everything you dare not dare to do."
The prince thought for a while before saying with a smile: "If your country and our country form an alliance, if my country wants to win Maling Mountain, I wonder if your country can send troops to respond?"
Qi Ning thought for a moment and shook his head: "His Royal Highness, I can't answer. This is not a trivial matter after all, I have to discuss it with China, and it will be decided by the Emperor. If I agree here, I'm afraid I will not believe it."
"Is the Qinhuai Army's 100,000 troops all under the Jinyi Qi family?" Prince said with a smile: "Your generations of the Jinyi Qi family have been fighting with the Northern Han Dynasty for death. If there is a chance, how can you let it go?"
Qi Ning said: "His Royal Highness should also know that the Qinhuai Legion will now be Yue Huanshan, and the Qi Family is a thing of the past." He smiled slightly and asked, "His Royal Highness, is Qi really prepared to use troops against the Han State?"
The prince said with a smile: "This palace is just casually. After all, if you are married, you will have to move forward and back together." He got up and said, "Hou Ye, someone will come to pick you up tonight, this palace still has on hand. Some things, leave first. "
Qi Ning said goodbye to the prince, Qi Feng had come together and asked, "Hou Ye, the prince came over in person, what do you mean?"
"The banquet in the palace, the monarch of Eastern Qi will be surprised for me." Qi Ning smiled faintly: "Qi Feng, are you saying that this monarch of Eastern Qi is too polite?"
Qi Feng sneered: "The old guy sees the benefits and forgets what he is looking for, and he wants to walk with the Northern Han people. Hou Ye, he will let you enter the palace, will there be no conspiracy?"
Qi Ning said with a smile: "We are in Dongqi now. If he really wants to do harm to me, he doesn't need to be so troublesome. And he doesn't need to do anything to me." Wei Yi pondered, only to say: "Let Leader Wu stay at night In the post house, you brought a few people from the Hou Mansion with me into the palace. Since the princes of the Eastern Qi all sent the prince to come and invite him in person, this face must be given. "
At dusk, the palace really sent a carriage to greet him, and Tao Gan, the clerk of the court, invited Qi Ning personally and looked very respectful.
Qi Feng led the people who came out of the Hou Mansion with the guards. Outside the gate of the palace, the carriage stopped. A deacon was waiting in front of the door. When he saw Qi Ning, he came with a smile on his face and said, "Hou Ye, Your Majesty has a purpose, please ask Hou Ye to go to Juxian Temple and wait. "After looking at Qi Ning and others, he said:" Hou Ye, no attendants are allowed to enter. "
Qi Ning frowned slightly, and Tao Gan said: "Hou Ye, Your Majesty has given a special account. Tonight only Hou Ye is going to the banquet, there are no other people, and the Xiaguan can't take a step. Hou Ye rest assured, these few The brothers were waiting outside the palace gate, and the lower officials accompanied them. "
Qi Ning saw the purpose of the Eastern Qi monarch. Since he arrived here, he would not be able to look back, hesitating, said: "Lead the way!"
After entering the palace, turning east and west, the shapes of the palaces are quite the same. Qi Ning suddenly thought of Chi Danmei that the layout of the Qi palace was designed by the owner of Baiyun Island, like a maze. The maze of gossip and the like are quite proficient, and all the palaces are burning the mountain of flames without exception, the fragrance is lingering, and the heart is refreshing.
Qi Ning thought that although Qi was a small country, he was far more extravagant than Chu. He followed the deacon to a palace and entered a room with a court house attendant in the house, which was considered comfortable. The deacon said : "Your Majesty will soon summon Hou Ye. Hou Ye will wait here for a while."
Qi Ning nodded slightly, some people brought tea snacks up, very particular, Qi Ning thought that this is in the palace, or reserved, wait patiently, after a while, suddenly heard a soft footsteps stopped at the door , Qi Ning looked up and saw a lady outside the door looking inside.
Qi Ning looked around, there were three or four palace people nearby, but they were all like stone carvings, lifeless. The maid looked at Qi Ning, her eyes shone brightly, beckoned to Qi Ning, Qi Ning froze, raised her finger. Pointing at his chest, the maiden nodded. Qi Ning was a little puzzled, hesitated, got up and went outside, and saw the maiden in her early twenties, with a beautiful face and a full body, and asked, "Is the girl looking for me?"
"You are Jinyihou?" Asked the court girl.
Qi Ning nodded slightly, the maid looked at Qi Ning, smiled softly, and said softly: "Hou Ye, someone wants to see you, please come with your slave."
Qi Ning suspiciously said: "Someone wants to see me? Who? I'm waiting for Jun to summon, is it because Jun wants to see me?"
The lady of the palace "chucked" with a smile, she was charming and whispered: "In addition to your majesty, there are many nobles in the palace." He lowered his voice and said: "The princess wants to see the embassy of Chu. Her majesty has a moment to summon, Lord Hou, please follow me. "
Qi Ning shook his head and said: "Without the will of the monarch, how can I see a princess as a foreign envoy? The girl went to the princess and said that the chief minister summoned him, and he could only ask your majesty to give his order."
The court lady frowned: "Jin Yihou, the princess is kind, you don't know what's wrong. The slave-servant asks you, have you and the embassy of the Han Dynasty ever attended a banquet in the state government?"
"It does happen."
"Did that Master Xianggu give you exam questions?" The pair of eyes in the palace were watery, quite a bit of charm: "The princess heard that these questions were solved by you, so she was very happy and praised Chu. The envoy was cleverly abnormal,
said her voice in a low voice:
The princess did not want to go to the Han Kingdom. She said that the envoys of the Chu Kingdom were so clever. The emperor of the Chu Kingdom was at least knowledgeable. ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Qi Ning smiled and said: "The princess is so green, and I am naturally happy in Chu Kingdom. "
The court lady smiled charmingly and said, "The princess heard that you are in trouble. She said that there is a way for your majesty to agree to her going to the Chu Kingdom, but you are required to cooperate with Jin Yi, so this allows the slave-servant to come and find Hou Ye. "Your eyes whispered," he whispered: "Your Majesty will be summoned soon. There is not much time. If Hou Ye wants to, he will go now, otherwise the slave-servant can only retreat."
Qi Ning thought that the whereabouts of Yu Yu and Bei Tangfeng were unknown, plus what he said to the prince today, the current situation is favorable to Chu Guoda, but if Qi Guo will marry the princess to Chu Guo, then However, there are still variables. For example, Princess Xiang even sent someone to find herself in the past to face the opportunity. Some suspiciously pondered and asked, "What's the girl's name? You came here to summon and did not know your name."
The maid said softly: "The slave-servant is called Hanxiang. They said that as soon as the slave-servant sweats, the fragrance will come out, so the princess gave the slave-servant the name."
She was a little bit pretty, and even a little more romantic. At the moment, there was a trace of sweat on her forehead, but Qi Ning did not smell a special scent. She smiled slightly and said: "So it is, girl with fragrance, where is the princess now?" ? "
