Chapter 97 Women Fight for Husband
Looking at Leng Changxi's appearance without any hesitation, Sima Rui couldn't help sneering. He was still tricked. Leng Changxi is too popular in the court now. If he can't accept it for his own use, Sima Rui's principle is that he would rather destroy it than leave it to others.
When the two arrows leave the string, the sharp-eyed person can find that it is not going hand in hand. One slightly ahead, it looks a little frivolous and seems lighter. After one, the momentum is not small, which seems to be heavier. However, soon, the back one immediately catches up with the previous one, penetrates the arrow on the tail of the arrow, and accurately pushes the front. An arrow was divided into two halves, and the two arrows turned into three and plunged into the bullseye.
In the summer wind, the three arrow feathers firmly and fiercely rooted in the bullseye seem to have the same resolute, bold but light and lonely temperament as Leng Changxi and the fragrance of grass.
"Good!" Sima Xiu was so excited that he stood up directly from the dragon chair and took the lead to get up and applaud Leng Changxi. For a moment, the officials agreed. Even Qin Yunuan almost couldn't help standing up, but finally put up with it, but his face was unspeakable with joy.
However, Qin Yuzhao boldly applauded desperately and shouted out all the words Qin Yunuan wanted to say, "It's awesome! This big brother is awesome! The most powerful in the world!"
In the face of enthusiastic praise, Leng Changxi just calmly put down the long bow in his hand. The first thing he looked at was the direction of Qin Yunuan. The monotonous smile at the corners of his mouth seemed to report to Qin Yunuan. How others thought that he seemed to be so important, he cared It's just her attitude alone.
Qin Yunuan smiled so cheerfully for the first time, showing his white teeth. He has always been the best, and this time, it represents Da Qi's good face.
"I'm sorry," Leng Changxi stepped forward and nodded to Wanyan Su. "Prince Beidi, you lost."
Wanyan Su also praised cheerfully: "I lost convincingly." Two arrows turn into three arrows. If it is not enough strength and accuracy, coupled with years of experience and calm judgment, it is absolutely impossible for ordinary people to do it.
Sima Rui also catered to a sentence: "General Leng is really good."
Leng Changxi turned sideways slightly, and the bat-shaped mask happened to form a strange arc, facing Sima Rui coldly, as if it could absorb people's souls and see through people's hearts: "Thank you, Third Prince."
Thank you for changing the arrow in the arrow box. The hardness of the arrow is different to break the other arrow with one arrow.
Empress Chen's face was full of peace: "Sure enough, it's a hero, emperor, do you think?"
"Naturally, you should appreciate it!" Sima Xiu's mood was as smooth as a waterfall flying down 3,000 feet. "General Cold, do you directly say what reward do you want?"
Let people ask directly how honor it is.
Leng Changxi didn't have such a surprised expression as others, but arched his hand and said, "I have nothing else to ask for." This is true. Naturally, he can get what he wants, whether it's things or people.
"No," Sima Xiu said decisively, "In this way, I have a request from General Xu Leng. From now on, if General Leng wants anything, as long as the requirements are reasonable, I can afford it and I will definitely meet it."
Sima Xiu's words are resolute, but Queen Chen's face has changed. If she gives Tian Mu a treasure or adds an official to the title, she can accept even if she gives Leng Changxi a marquis for this arrow. What she is most afraid of is this situation. First, it is equivalent to giving Leng Changxi. A great authority, secondly, it is not obvious that the emperor's trust in this cold general has reached a very high level.
If it were another emperor, how dare he give such a wish to be a minister.
It seems that Leng Changxi, a hard nail, can't move now.
Looking at the thoughtful appearance of Empress Chen and Sima Rui, Leng Changxi did not refuse and arched his hand and said, "Thank you, your Majesty."
"It turns out that he is the cold general known as the god of war," suddenly a delicate and open-minded female voice sounded, with a strong Beidi accent. "It's really powerful, as powerful as our heavenly Khan."
It was the Beidi princess who spoke thousands of miles away from Beidi. According to say, Daqi women can't appear casually when discussing marriage, but Beidi's folk customs are open. A few years ago, there are even some habits left behind by the custom of marriage. Now a daughter-in-law who is waiting for her daughter It's nothing to come to hunt with a large army.
The Beidi woman has a low status and has no surname. The Beidi princess is named Sai Chun. She is tall and slender, and her face is quite characteristic of the Beidi people. Her eyes are deep, with a bright eye like a jewel. Her nose bridge is high and her mouth is small. She is a delicate beauty, and now she is close to Qin Yunuan. The seat of my daughter's house here is next to a nobleman.
As soon as Sai Chun spoke, she immediately attracted a lot of attention. She stood up directly and said to Sima Xiu cheerfully, "The emperor of Daqi, you Daqi actually have such a capable person who is good at archery. I have decided that I don't want to marry the eldest prince of you. I want to marry such a warrior." Chun shouted to Leng Changxi, "Hey, what's your name?"
Leng Changxi looked at her coldly and didn't seem to answer her meaning. Sai Chun also didn't care and replied, "Forget, the name doesn't matter. The key is that I like the way he shoots arrows. The emperor of Daqi, I have decided that I will marry him."
Before Sima Xiu's face changed slightly to react, Wanyansu immediately motioned the maidservant beside Sai Chun to sit down and shouted softly, "Sister, this is in front of Emperor Daqi. Don't always talk about 'marry or not' and lose your etiquette."
"Why am I messing around?" Saichun was still angry and shouted, "When I went out of the grassland, didn't Khan mean that I was going to get married? I didn't want to do it at first, but now I do. Isn't it good?"
The atmosphere was a little awkward, and Sima Xiu immediately laughed loudly and said, "The daughter on the grassland is indeed more straightforward and cheerful than our daughters in the Central Plains."
"The emperor of Daqi, did you agree?"
Sima Xiu took a sip of Xueshan Maojian: "Marriage needs to be discussed in the long-term."
"I don't understand. If you like it, you can be together. What else do you want to discuss?" Saichun is a straightforward person.
Leng Changxi looked at Qin Yunuan silently. He imagined a lot of Qin Yunuan's jealous appearance and pouting? Frown? Lose your temper? But at this time, Qin Yunuan just smiled faintly, and the time seemed to be fixed. Qin Yunuan's quiet but bright smile once again hooked Leng Changxi's heart.
He understands what she is thinking, because she believes in him and never doubts it. Why should she be angry?
It's just Saichun's side...
"I said why the princess didn't pay much attention to Ruo'er these days. It turned out that the princess had someone in her heart." Concubine Yun seized the opportunity and made no effort to secretly contribute to the flames. She didn't like the emperor's arrangement in the first place. Why did she let her good son marry a northern barbarian daughter-in-law who did not know etiquette? Now that the northern barbarian princess herself said that she would marry Leng Changxi, she would simply let Leng Changxi take the blame.
Sima Ruo didn't say anything all the way. He kept silent like a sculpture, as if Princess Saichun married him or not had nothing to do with him. No one knew what he was thinking in his heart. I'm afraid even Concubine Yun didn't understand her son's mind now.
Empress Chen followed and took a sip of light tea: "Hasn't the Empress Dowager begun to worry about General Leng's marriage?" This sentence kills two birds with one stone, which not only relieves the siege for Sima Xiu, but also reminds Concubine Yun that her small calculation will eventually fail.
One is an orphan girl adopted by the empress dowager, who can barely be awarded the title of princess by virtue of the merits of the family. The other is the beloved serious princess of Beidi. Behind her are countless opportunities and vast land. Queen Chen naturally understands that preventing the enemy from becoming stronger is to enhance her strength.
"Yes," Sima Rui echoed, "the imperial grandmother has been leading the red line for General Leng and Princess Shuhua. I'm afraid that Princess Sai Chun's request..."
Sai Chun suddenly turned his head: "Aren't you Han people who pay attention to three wives and four concubines? Let her do it small."
As soon as this sentence came out, Wanyan Su's eyes had become extremely cold. He even made a silent gesture behind his back, which made the maids directly cover Sai Chun's mouth. These maids were brought by Wanyansu from Beidi, and all of them directly obeyed him, so they didn't have so many scruples.
Although Qin Yunuan was still smiling faintly on the surface, it was absolutely impossible to say that she didn't care. A group of people talked about the marriage of the man in her heart in front of her. Suddenly, her heart seemed to be pulled in pain, twitching and uncomfortable. His fingertips trembled, and the tea cup at hand was knocked over, and the hot tea poured out.
"Three girls, get up quickly, be careful that it's hot." Man'er lost her voice and shouted a little louder.
However, Qin Yunuan only looked at Leng Changxi and looked at each other. At that moment, Leng Changxi suddenly stepped forward and said the first sentence on this topic: "Princess Jin Zhiyuye, Princess Shuhua is also the favorite of the Empress Dowager, but neither of these two will marry Changxi."
"General Leng, what are you talking about?" Empress Chen picked her phoenix eyes and said, "Is General Leng really hard-hearted? These two are both rare beauties. Is General Leng really not moved at all?
"Changxi's heart has been moved for a long time," Leng Changxi raised his resolute but cold pupil. "It's just Changxi's heart. It can only move once in his life. He can only love one person at a time. One love is a lifetime. Changxi's heart already has someone else, and he can no longer tolerate others."
