My Beloved Concubine Only Wants to Eat Melons - Chapter 86

I don’t know if the quarrel with his sister-in-law Princess Ruyang in the Palace of Rouyi hurt her vitality that day. For a while, Princess Shou’an didn’t show up in front of everyone.

However, Yan Shu was fed a wave of melons, and it took several days to slowly digest them.

Except that Princess Shouan is a ruthless person from the bottom of her heart, she has no other views on the matter of Nanzhao, she just hopes that this ruthless Sea King will stay away from her idol.

Fortunately, the emperor personally spoke that day, Songhe Academy was closed and no visitors were seen, her idol Qi Xueshi was able to teach in the academy quietly, and was not harassed by Princess Shouan anymore.

As the days went by, Yan Shu’s pregnancy reaction finally improved, she was not so lethargic, and her appetite recovered a bit, and she was finally able to eat some meat such as beef in sauce and roast chicken.

However, the weather is hot nowadays, and her favorite is all kinds of ice bowls made of fruits.

What honeydew melon, watermelon, Sydney, grapes, in order to please her, Yushanfang also tried its best to make her in different ways, eat one every day, not only the body is comfortable, but the mood is also good.

At first, Lonicera was a little worried, but it wasn’t until Doctor Jiang personally said that pregnant women can also eat ice in moderation, so she let her go.

On this day, Yan Shu was enjoying her honeydew melon ice bowl when she suddenly heard the system say, [The latest news from Nanzhao, King Mu Mu Zhengping received a letter saying that the current heir in the mansion is not his flesh and blood, so Immediately imprisoned all the maids close to Princess Pu, and after some severe torture, the truth was found out. 】

Yan Shu’s eyes lit up, and she hurriedly said, 【He knows that the child is not his? 】

The system hummed, 【The ins and outs have been found out, of course I know. 】

Yan Shu hurriedly asked again, 【Then how did he deal with the princess? 】

The system, [Give Bai Ling directly, the main members of Pu’s natal family, including her parents and brothers, have also been accused of crimes, and they are all locked up in Nanzhao’s death row. 】

Yan Shu sighed silently when she heard the words, the Pu family is really courageous enough, but they have kept it a secret for more than ten years, and it seems that the day has come to be exposed.

But having said that, this secret letter…

Could it be that the emperor asked someone to do it?

It must be, after all, she only told the emperor when she knew about it, and Nanzhao has been peaceful in the past few decades, so who else could do it except the emperor?

But she heard the system authenticate her, [That’s right, after the emperor heard about it from you, he sent someone to rush to Nanzhao the next day. The Napu family is a big force in the local area, if there is no outside help, Mu Zhengping may not be able to solve them smoothly this time. 】

I see.

Yan Shu thought about it, and suddenly understood——

As a result, only the son of Princess Shou’an who is the true blood of the Mu family is left in the Palace of King Mu of Nanzhao. When Mu Zhengping grows old in the future, he will definitely take over as King Mu.

And it has half of the blood of the Yuwen family. It is believed that the relationship between Nanzhao and Daliang will become closer in the future.

The system said, [That’s the reason. 】

Yan Shu couldn’t help sighing, as expected, eating melons is of great use!

Looking forward to the friendship between the two countries in the future, she is also indispensable!

But having said that, things have developed to the present, Princess Shouan is really a winner in life!

Thinking that people travel around the mountains and rivers all day to enjoy life, and they talk about love, and now the throne has returned to their children.

Tsk, it’s really enviable.

Of course, Nanzhao is far away from the capital, and Princess Shouan must not know the good news at this time. It will be even more enjoyable to know the fate of the rival siblings in a few days.

~~

Seeing that a few more days passed, Yan Shu’s appetite recovered a bit, and the palace became busy again.

Just because the emperor’s birthday is about to come.

Of course, at the age of the emperor, if it was released to the people, it would not be time to celebrate.

But after all, it is the emperor of the Ninth Five-Year Plan. Compared with the country, the birthday of the king is also an important day.

Not to mention anything else, it is also one of the most important matters to take advantage of this opportunity to contact and exchange foreign policies with various countries.

Therefore, from the day Yu Wenlan ascended the throne, the Ministry of Rites designated his birthday as the Changning Festival in Daliang, and held it every three years, inviting envoys from various countries to come to Beijing for a gathering.

Except for Princess Shou’an who came a month earlier to see Bachelor Qi, the rest of the countries are only now starting to arrive in Beijing one after another.

And the first one to arrive turned out to be Tubo, who had never had a good relationship with Daliang.

As we all know, Tubo is located in the southwest of Daliang, and it has been eyeing Daliang for decades, and wars have occurred from time to time.

If it weren’t for the buffer of Nanzhao Kingdom in the middle, the war would have been even more intense.

Everyone knew that they had always been ambitious towards Daliang, but they didn’t expect that they would propose to make peace with Daliang this time.

As soon as the news came out, it immediately aroused a lot of discussion among the ruling and opposition parties.

Some ministers opposed it very much, thinking that this matter must not be agreed, because Tubo is a land of barbarians with high mountains and far away rivers, and it is not a country that has been friendly to Daliang for generations like Nanzhao.

Once a woman from Daliang is married, she will suffer, not to mention the torture, and the other party may not abide by the agreement and promise not to invade Daliang’s land in the future.

Especially with the marriage, Daliang will definitely give a generous dowry, and the Tubo people are very likely to swallow the dowry first and then turn around and make trouble, telling Daliang to fetch water from the bamboo basket in vain.

But there are also ministers who are very much in favor of this. They believe that war is a waste of people and money, and consumes a lot of national power. If the two countries can get along with each other in a peaceful way, and can also strengthen exchanges and integration between each other, why not do it?

Therefore, for several days in a row, there were endless arguments in the court.

However, before the ministers could reach a conclusion, Princess Ruyang came to the queen mother full of worries.

Coincidentally, on that day, the cook in the palace of Princess Shou’an made Nanzhao’s special flower shortcakes, and Princess Shou’an personally sent them to the palace for the Queen Mother to taste.

And the queen mother was concerned about Yan Shu, and called her to Ci’an Palace together.

So, when the three of them were enjoying the snacks, they heard the report from the palace man, “Princess Ruyang asks to see you.”

Yan Shu, who was indulging in the sweetness of the flower cake, was taken aback for a moment, wondering why Princess Ruyang came here now?

—Could it be that she heard that my sister-in-law Princess Shou’an was entering the palace today, and she came here to quarrel?

Tsk tsk, in that case, maybe I can get another wave of melons today.

Thinking of this, she quietly glanced at Princess Shou’an, but saw that she didn’t care.

The queen mother nodded and said, “Please come in.”

The palace servants should be, and after a while, they saw Princess Ruyang enter the palace.

Seeing the little girl was there, Princess Ruyang also had a meal at first, but she didn’t care about the quarrel anymore, she just kowtowed to the queen mother with a sad face, “I beg your mother to save my wife, save Axiu!”

As he spoke, he still shed tears.

This caused the three people in the palace to look surprised. The Queen Mother hurriedly said, “What happened? Get up and talk.”

As he spoke, he asked the palace servants to help her up.

Princess Ruyang then said, “I heard that the Tubo envoys came to Beijing a few days ago and proposed marriage to His Majesty. Many ministers in the court agreed, but looking at our Yuwen family, only the minister’s wife, Axiu, is not yet married. If we marry her to Tubo, wouldn’t it be my wife’s life…”

Said and cried again.

Only then did everyone understand.

—Princess Ruyang is right. After the **** storm when the emperor came to power, Yuwen’s family has never been very prosperous.

Looking at the current clan, there is only one unmarried girl of the right age in their Ruyang Palace, who is Yu Wenxiu, the daughter of King Ruyang.

She is the only daughter of Princess Ruyang, who has been doted on by her since she was a child.

As for King Ruyang’s other two concubine daughters, both are under ten years old, obviously they are not considered.

So when this incident happened, Princess Ruyang was extremely nervous, seeing that she couldn’t eat for several days and couldn’t sleep at night, for fear that her daughter would be sent to marry her.

As she spoke, she couldn’t help crying to the Queen Mother, “Your Majesty also knows that Axiu was pampered and raised by her servants since she was a child. How can she bear the barbaric land of Tubo? Besides, I heard that those people can marry their sons after their father dies.” Concubine, my brother is dead and my younger brother still wants to marry his sister-in-law… Wuwuwu, how can I ask Axiu to marry me in such a barbaric place…”

The voice fell, and before the Queen Mother could say anything, Princess Shou’an said while eating flower cakes, “Most of those foreign countries are like this, what’s the fuss? If sister-in-law is not willing to part with Axiu, I have an idea.”

This made everyone startled, and hurriedly looked at her.

Princess Ruyang also tentatively asked, “What’s your idea?”

But Princess Shou’an said, “Isn’t your niece from the natal family worried about not leaving home? You might as well marry her, anyway, she doesn’t have to be the daughter of the clan, as long as the eldest brother recognizes her as a daughter-in-law. “

puff…

As soon as the words fell, Yan Shu almost spit out the cake that she just ate.

Or if this is a ruthless person, he still didn’t forget to stab his opponent with a knife at this time.

But Princess Ruyang was taken aback, and immediately said, “How is that possible, she is already that age…”

Princess Shou’an continued to speak leisurely, “What’s the matter? Anyway, the Tubo people don’t care about those things, as long as they can have children.”

After the words fell, Princess Ruyang was stunned, but the queen mother couldn’t help but said to Princess Shou’an, “At this time, don’t make fun of your sister-in-law anymore.”

Then he said to Princess Ruyang, “You are too impatient. This matter is still in the discussion stage, and His Majesty hasn’t spoken yet. Why are you so anxious?”

Princess Ruyang still cried, “Axiu is my wife’s own flesh and blood, can my wife not worry?”

Princess Shou’an then said seriously, “Sister-in-law can’t do anything in a hurry. If it really comes to that point, this matter will really fall on Axiu’s head. Sister-in-law has to be willing if she doesn’t want to. This is a share of Yuwen’s daughter.” Responsibility, you have always cared about enjoying the country and rich food and clothing brought down by your ancestors, so when it is time to fulfill your responsibilities, will you not be exhausted?”

Um?

As soon as these words came out, Yan Shu couldn’t help but respect Princess Shou’an in awe.

Speaking of which, when she took the initiative to ask Ying to marry to Nanzhao, didn’t she also have such ambitions?

But to be honest, the marriage is actually very cruel.

This era is not a thousand years later, and the transportation is very underdeveloped. How many of the married women throughout the ages can still return to their hometown to meet their relatives?

And as Princess Ruyang said just now, it is not uncommon for the sons of foreign countries to marry their concubines and their younger brothers to marry their sisters-in-law. The women who married in the past are not only humiliated, but also sometimes die in political struggles in other countries if they are not careful.

The actions that benefit the country and the people that the ministers said were all based on the women who never returned.

Yan Shu sighed silently, thinking that this matter can only be decided by the emperor.

Tsk, so it’s not easy to be a royal woman.

The Empress Dowager thought the same way, so she could only say to Princess Ruyang, “Shou’an’s words are not unreasonable. Although Ai’s family is not willing to bear Axiu’s hardship, this is a major matter for the family and the country, and Ai’s family can’t intervene. I can advise you to be prepared, if this matter really happens to Axiu, you have to be willing if you don’t want to.”

As soon as these words came out, Princess Ruyang paused and began to cry again.

The Queen Mother also had no choice but to comfort her while sending people to the court to inquire about the news and see when the matter would come to fruition.

Coincidentally, not long after, the person sent out came back in a hurry to report, “I want to tell you, my lord, just after the unanimous discussion between the ministers of the DPRK and China, Tubo’s marriage proposal has been rejected.”

Oh?

Everyone was taken aback for a moment, and their eyes lit up.

The Empress Dowager Guan asked, “Why did the ministers agree again?”

But I heard the other party say, “Because I just got the news that there was a coup d’état in the Nanzhao Kingdom, and Princess Mu Pu’s family actually hugged the son of a commoner and pretended to be the prince to deceive King Mu. His mother’s family appointed a nephew as the eldest son. In this way, Nanzhao and our dynasty will become closer and unite against Tubo, so we won’t be afraid that Tubo will take the opportunity to make trouble again.”

“what?”

After the words fell, everyone in the hall was surprised except Yan Shu.

And Yan Shu heaved a sigh of relief.

Damn, the news finally came, and I can eat melons with the big guys.

After so many days, she almost suffocated to death!
