Chapter 404: Worthy of being a hero

At this point, Zhu Feng said, he didn't go on, he just glanced at Heyi next to him from the corner of his eye. At this moment, Zhongshu Sheng Zuo Cheng, who had been silent, stepped forward and said respectfully: "Special Envoy, Since the establishment of the emperor, our country has set a rule."
"What rules?"
"The harem concubine can only be a good family from the country, and must never come from a foreign country."
"Oh?"
Ajislan frowned.
He Yi said, "This is an ancestral precept and a national gift."
"..."
"The emperor is the fourth son of Emperor Gao, since he was a child, he is respectful and benevolent.
"..."
"So, the emperor accepted the two gifts from Princess Baoyin. As for the princess--"
When he said this, he smiled apologetically: "I hope your envoy will forgive me."
The latter words are difficult to say in terms of diplomatic rhetoric.
After all, it is one thing to refuse good intentions, but it is another thing to refuse a woman, especially a princess. This can easily lead to antagonism between the two countries and even war again.
After hearing these words, the expressions of the palace concubines, who were originally gloomy, became slightly calmer.
When Lian Nan Yan heard this, his eyes flashed with joy.
Is it really unnecessary to marry that Baoyin Princess?
She opened her eyes wide and looked at Zhu Feng expectantly.
Even with a thick layer of dragon robe, Zhu Feng could feel the eager gaze behind him, and he was about to burn a hole in his robe, but his face remained calm, only holding a little. Looking at Ajislan with a faint smile.
Ajislan's face was naturally a little unsightly.
However, the rejected Princess Baoyin showed no anger on that dark and gorgeous face. She tilted her head and looked at Zhu Feng and asked, "Your Majesty, is this really the case?"
Zhu Feng glanced at her and said calmly: "You have no jokes."
"That's fine."
She laughed, showing her white teeth, looking very fit and brilliant, and said, "I don't want to stay anyway. Although your place is good, I still prefer the grassland."
"..."
"The vastness of the grassland is what I like."
Everyone looked at her in surprise.
If according to the customs of the Central Plains, a woman is rejected by others, it is a very shameful thing, and it can even be said to be fatal. Some girls are retired by the married person in the boudoir, and even need to die.
However, she can be so free and easy, telling everyone straightforwardly, it doesn't matter if you don't want me, because I still have a better place to go.
Although Nan Yan didn't like her since she appeared, or she resisted such a person, she couldn't help feeling a little bit of affection when she heard her words and saw her free and easy performance.
Even Zhu Feng looked at her and found it interesting.
He smiled and said: "The princess deserves to be a hero of the female middle school. I respect you a cup."
After speaking, he raised the wine glass on the table.
Immediately, a maid offered a glass of wine to Princess Baoyin, and she also took the glass and drank it heroically.
As a result, the originally awkward atmosphere immediately eased down.
Ajislan looked at Zhu Feng for a while, and finally showed a little relief, and said, "If this is the case, that's fine."
"..."
"May your two countries be friendly for generations."
As soon as the voice fell, Zhu Feng and he both raised their wine glasses at the same time, and everyone in the Nuan Pavilion also toasted to drink together.
Nan Yan smiled so that his eyes were bent.
When the cup was drunk, He Yi stepped forward and respectfully said: "This time the special envoy has come from afar, please forgive the sin of losing welcome."
