Мой первый муж после переселения душ - Глава 35

Глава 35

I took a sip of tea and pushed the chairs together. I moved a bright yellow quilt from Qianqing's resting place and spread it on the wooden chair. Hehe, sofa.

Grandpa Hai stared at me with his mouth wide open, but closed it in vain. Wu Yongkang and Bianpian completely ignored me.

Zi Mo looked awkwardly at the ministers and said, "My brother prefers soft chairs, please forgive him."

"Not at all, Lord Shen, you're overthinking it," said Wu Yongkang, a pretty boy.

Qianqing sat solemnly on a couch that was wider than four of my chairs placed together, her eyes darting about like stars, and said in a low voice, "Besides Lord Mu, Xifeng has also sent the Sixteenth Princess, who wishes to form a marriage alliance with our country."

"Your Majesty, we are willing to share your burdens." Bianpian, Wu Yongkang, and Zimo all knelt down. Damn, knees are worthless; I hadn't even warmed up before I had to get down again. I lamented the injustice of fate; why wasn't I the one sitting there?

Following the mainstream, I also jumped off the chair and knelt down.

"Rise, my dear subject." I patted my knees and sat back down.

Zi Mo, Bian Pian, and Wu Yongkang stood before Qian Qing to discuss matters of state.

Damn, getting married is like you're trying to commit suicide.

Qianqing swept her sharp eyes across the crowd and said, "If Dongqing and Xifeng form an alliance through marriage, then Xifeng's ambition will not be limited to currying favor with our country. I'm afraid their ultimate goal will be to conquer the entire world."

I glanced at him and felt that this person was really hypocritical: "Why is it called ambition? That's called aspiration." I gave him my advice in good conscience.

Qianqing looked at me dangerously, a turbulent undercurrent swirling beneath the night sky. I cowered under the covers, terrified; I'd said the wrong thing again.

"Minister Shen is right!" Qianqing's pronunciation was clear. I covered my face, leaving only my eyes showing.

Seeing this, the flat-faced man continued, "Whether it's ambition or aspiration, as long as it harms our national character, Dongqing will absolutely retaliate to demonstrate the majesty of our great nation. Even if it means mutual destruction, we will not hesitate."

"That serious!" I looked at him dismissively. "You can talk about something so trivial as if it's happening right on our doorstep."

"Eunuch Hai, see Minister Shen out!" Qian Qing stood up, his tall figure like a mountain, exuding strength. Unfortunately, his petty nature kicked in, and he was displeased.

"Lord Shen, please come with me." Xiao Hai stood beside me, bowing, his handsome square face filled with worry.

"Fine, I'm leaving. I don't even care about you guys." "Okay!" I tidied up my makeup and followed Xiao Hai, leisurely making my way out first.

I'm totally against meetings.

"Lord Shen, please sit here for a while. Perhaps the Emperor will calm down and summon you in!" Xiao Hai said, trying to comfort me because he thought I had been upset.

"I know, you can go inside and wait there, lest that petty person cause you trouble later." I let him in, and he opened his mouth wide, sweat beading on his forehead: "You...you're..."

"Alright, what are you saying! Just go in." I urged him to hurry up. He stopped his long lecture and turned to go inside.

I'm enjoying this place all by myself. Ah! It's so beautiful.

Even after Zi Mo came out, the petty Qian Qing still wouldn't let me in.

I dusted myself off and went home.

Zi Mo helped me into the carriage and said worriedly, "Besides Lord Mu, the Ninth Prince, known as the God of War Xi Feng, is also escorting the Sixteenth Princess this time."

"What did you say?" I jumped up (why didn't my head hit the roof?): "What's he doing here!"

Zi Mo's mind raced: "There's a suspicion of coercion and enticement involved."

"I thought everything was fine. I didn't expect such a difficult person to come." It is a bit worrying. Xi Lingchi's influence in Xifeng is equivalent to that of Xi Lingfeng. His arrival brings a lot of variables. Perhaps based solely on his own likes and dislikes, it is possible that a war will break out.

“If it weren’t for that, why would His Majesty be worried! His Majesty wants to betroth the Sixteenth Princess to Qian.” Zi Mo finished speaking and stared at me intently.

I looked at him impatiently: "Why are you looking at me like that! Fine, I'll point. But will the West Wind agree?"

“Sikong Qian’s status transcends national boundaries among the four kingdoms. You may not understand this, but Xifeng will certainly not refuse, and may even be delighted.” Zi Mo’s tone was certain.

"And you say I don't understand! That's not fair." "What does Chou Qian mean? Isn't he going to marry Princess Sheng'an?" Besides, there's Xiao Cao at home. I really can't believe that ugly freak is so popular.

“The daughter of the Prince of Jian’an can be a concubine.”

"Won't that enrage Prince Jian'an to death?" His precious daughter is quite famous.

"Won't."

"Why?" He doesn't love his daughter anymore!

Zi Mo gave me a strange look: "Do you even know the value of Si Kongqian's existence!"

I nodded: "Of course, no one would dare to take it even if it cost one tael of silver per pound."

Zi Mo tapped my poor forehead: "I also want to throw you out."

What are you saying! I stood angrily in front of him: "Go ahead and throw it! Throw it! If you throw it, you won't see such a cute and smart me anymore."

Zi Mo chuckled and pulled me close to comfort me: "Don't be angry, Fourth Brother misspoke just now."

"You were wrong to begin with." I wouldn't let it go.

"Don't hold a grudge. His Majesty has been in a bad mood lately, and as his subjects, we should be understanding."

"Understand? Understand what?" It seems better to let his harem handle this kind of thing.

"With the Minister of Works absent and the Emperor busy with affairs, we must be more accommodating and relieve his worries," Zi Mo earnestly admonished.

I winked at him slyly: "So it's because the bottom isn't here, and the top isn't having fun, ha! Ha!"
