Chapter 207 Must be Princess Anle
Chapter 207 Must be Princess Anle
The two imagined the future together, and the more they talked, the more they yearned for it. In the end, Zhang Qiong even held Yun Yido's hand and refused to let go. He wanted to hold her in his arms, but there were annoying silver needles stuck in her body.
Finally, when the needle was pulled out, Zhang Qiong hugged her without hesitation. Yun Yido did not refuse, and told herself not to refuse because they would be husband and wife.
But for no apparent reason, she felt that the good mood she had just had while chatting was gone, and her heart instead felt empty and lost.
Zhang Qiong hugged Yun Yiduo, and her unique orchid fragrance filled his nose, which made him feel very satisfied. Although he couldn't see her face clearly now, he believed that they would be able to meet officially soon.
In the evening, Zhang Qiong said goodbye and left. According to the customs of the Central Plains, the two could not meet again before getting married. Although this made Zhang Qiong feel a little tortured, she was also very much looking forward to it.
As he left happily, he didn't know that in the distant Da Chong, there was an injured man who was plotting to steal his bride.
A few days later, Ji Yuan led the advance army back to the coastal town, and the Poison King began to treat Ji Cheng's internal injuries and strengthen his meridians. The pain during this period was unbearable for ordinary people, but the Poison King told Ji Cheng that Duoduo had endured such pain almost every day.
This not only made Ji Cheng feel extremely distressed, but also made him more determined to recover as soon as possible.
In April, Chunming City was full of flowers and people were coming and going on the streets. The busiest place was the city gate. At this time, civil and military officials knelt on the ground, reverently welcoming their emperor who had returned from his ordeal.
Speaking of this experience, everyone knows that Prince Jing rebelled and pointed a red cannon at the king. Everyone also knows that this king is very skilled and not only fought off the assassin but also defeated Prince Jing, but unfortunately he was ambushed and seriously injured. Now, he is sitting in the imperial carriage and slowly returns to the Ming Palace amid the cheers of the ministers, and everyone bows down to him.
Outside Chunming City, the Poison King looked angrily at the person who was riding in the imperial carriage into the city, his face full of anger.
"You bastard, you want to go back before you get well. I don't care whether he lives or dies!"
Yun Feiyang almost rolled his eyes standing behind the Poison King. You didn't care about him and he followed me here. Your self-deceiving words are too weak.
"Humph!"
The Poison King was angry, and when he turned around, he saw Yun Feiyang's eyes were not rolled yet, and he could see the attitude at a glance. He flicked his sleeves and rode away directly. Whatever happens, he will not care about anything about Ji Cheng anymore, even if he asks him for help in the future, he will not care.
Therefore, a large sign was erected at the entrance of Youlan Valley soon after: Ji Cheng and dogs are not allowed to enter.
Yun Feiyang rode his horse to catch up with the Poison King, but he felt that his grandfather was becoming more and more like a child. No one could provoke his temper. No wonder he and Aji had a harmonious relationship. It turned out that their minds were the same.
As for what exactly happened between Grandpa and Ji Cheng, he didn't know, and at the moment it was impossible to find out from Grandpa.
Ji Cheng returned to the Ming Palace and started the court session without delay. In the hall, the ministers talked about the affairs of various places. At the same time, an official raised the issue of establishing a queen without fear of death.
Ji Cheng closed his eyes after hearing this, his eyes were deep. He remembered that at this time in his previous life, King Jing did not dare to take action, because he had been diligent in those years in his previous life and did not run around everywhere. And this spring, his old illness relapsed, and it took more than two months to stabilize the condition.
When his condition stabilized, this censor said that the heir to the throne was the foundation of the country and asked him to establish a queen. Later, he investigated and found that many officials had taken care of women of marriageable age at home, and just because of this censor's words, they sent their daughters to the palace to ascend to heaven.
It turned out that things were still developing along the trajectory of the previous life, so was it the Central Plains... Just when Ji Cheng was hoping, the voice of a palace servant delivering an imperial decree came from outside the door.
"Your Majesty, an envoy from the Central Plains requests an audience."
Sure enough, at this moment, the same thing as in the previous life must have happened in the Central Plains. Although the battle in the north was a great victory, the Central Plains was weakened after the war, and there was a natural disaster and no food. Presumably, the eldest princess Zhao Zijun would also ask for marriage to Da Chong like in the previous life.
The envoy from the Central Plains came to the palace, and it was indeed the same envoy from the previous life. He spoke eloquently about the Central Plains' sincerity in wanting to form a friendly relationship with Qin and Jin, and even handed the eldest princess' handwritten letter to Ji Cheng.
Ji Cheng unfolded the letter, and the smile on his lips grew wider and wider. The princess's kindness was sincere, and he could not disappoint a good princess who loved her country and her people. So, amid the extremely resentful eyes of the civil and military officials in the court, Ji Cheng laughed and agreed to the marriage, and asked the Imperial Observatory to calculate an auspicious time.
Of course, the auspicious time must be the same as in the previous life, May 28th.
Suddenly, Ji Cheng felt that everything would develop as it did in his previous life, and he would still get to marry the queen he wanted.
The ministers looked at Ji Cheng's beaming face after the Imperial Astronomical Observatory announced the auspicious time, and some of them did not understand the king's thoughts. He was so happy to give away so much food.
However, being able to form an alliance with a big country is indeed the best way to achieve political harmony between the two countries. If the king and the queen can get along well with each other in the future, there will be more and more friendly exchanges between the two countries, which will also be conducive to the development and growth of the two countries.
Thus, the court meeting ended in a peaceful atmosphere, and after the meeting, Ji Cheng called several of his trusted ministers to his side. They all knew what he was thinking, so he did not hide his calculations.
"Your Majesty, will our actions affect the friendship and peace between our two countries?"
Finally, Tong Lu couldn't help but tell Ji Cheng about his uneasiness. Ji Cheng glared at him, but he knew that this was a national issue and it was not the time for him to act on his own.
"My thoughts are clear to everyone from the Emperor to the little queen. What if I had made it clear to Emperor Zhangde before submitting the letter? I want to let Emperor Zhangde know that the queen I want is Princess Anle. It must be Princess Anle."
When Ji Cheng said this, the smile on his lips became even wider.
He wanted to tell the little queen his feelings in another form. He wanted to see what she would do when faced with such a marriage that involved national affairs.
It has to be said that he wanted to take revenge on Yun Yiduo. He could sense Yun Yiduo's ambivalence towards him. Since she had risked everything for him, why couldn't she just marry him?
Ji Cheng's letter was delivered to the dragon desk of Emperor Zhangde of the Central Plains at the fastest speed, even a few days earlier than the news brought back by the returning envoy.
When Emperor Zhangde saw Ji Cheng's letter, his brows furrowed. His beloved, gentle and generous daughter was so good, why did the great King Chongming want to snatch a married woman?
Thinking of Liuyun Sect's recent moves, Emperor Zhangde felt that he was too ashamed to tell the old Duke and Liuyun Sect about this matter.
"Alas! Great King Chongming has given me a big problem!"
