"Where's Wanfu?"

When Emperor Hongwen asked the question, the people around him all turned to look at Lu Yaoyao.

"Duke Zhen is right. They are indeed bluffing. In fact, their purpose of coming here this time is very simple."

"It's just to get married, but we are very clear about their current situation."

"If it's an ordinary marriage request, it will definitely not work, so they came to this scene out of their own cleverness."

Everyone thought about it and nodded.

It is definitely impossible to make a conventional marriage. After all, they are the ones who come to ask for peace. It is absolutely impossible for Dongzhou to marry a woman.

And they themselves were reluctant to send the girl over. Speaking of Xirong's arrogance, it was really engraved in his bones.

Especially in the past few years, they have killed people and set fires at the border. In fact, in their hearts, they don't look down on Dongzhou at all.

So even in such a situation, if they wanted to ask for peace, they would have to ask Gao Dongzhou.

But such a summation is definitely not acceptable, so they played this trick, bluffing.

As long as Dong Zhou was intimidated, he would be forced to agree to their request.

You must know that their initial request was to ask Princess Wanfu to marry him, and to return a large amount of property.

If Dongzhou agreed, it would be a great thing for them.

But it didn't work out in the end, so just now, they retreated to the next best thing and lowered their requirements, which was their real goal - to get married.

It's a bit like haggling when buying something. First ask for the price, and then scare it. If it can be the best, if it can't, then they will settle for the second best, and their second is the real goal.

Often under such circumstances, the chances of the other party agreeing are relatively high.

But they still underestimated Lu Yaoyao's status in Emperor Hongwen's heart too much.

"However, for the sake of safety, I still feel that it is necessary to send spies into Xirong to find out the situation. If it is really a bluff, maybe we can use this opportunity to get a share."

"If not, we can also make preparations in advance."

Everyone nodded.

They didn't want to start a war earlier, they had the intention of doing more than doing less, let Xi Rong and Bei Chu fight, they just watch the show.

But after Xi Rong made such a fuss, since you are ruthless, don't blame them for being ruthless.

"Leave this matter to the veterans. If Xirong is really bluffing, the veterans must lead the troops to teach them a lesson."

"Well, so be it."

"It's getting late, everyone, go back first."

Everyone bowed their hands and said goodbye.

After leaving the imperial study, Wen Songtao said, "Master, can I ask the old man to take you back?"

"Wenxiang, let me come, I will follow the way."

Hearing this, Wen Songtao looked at King Jin and nodded.

Soon several people left the palace in a carriage. Wen Songtao, Dong Xiang and Zhen Guogong were all on the way, and they separated after leaving the palace.

"Princess, wait."

After the carriage walked for a while, King Jin's voice suddenly came from outside.

Lu Yaoyao frowned, and said coldly, "It's getting late, so there's no need for King Jin to see you off, the servants can go back on their own."…

After all, she let the carriage speed up.

However, he was soon overtaken by King Jin.

Qiu Yu and Qiu Shuang, who were in the same car with Lu Yaoyao, were a little puzzled and looked at each other, not understanding what was going on.

Although they all came to the palace together, as servants, they are not qualified to enter the main banquet hall and can only wait in the side hall.

So they didn't know about King Jin's public proposal for marriage.

At this time, seeing their young lady like this, both of them were thinking, could it be that the two had a quarrel?

"Princess, please stop the car and listen to the king's explanation."

Lu Yaoyao ignored him.

Let the carriage speed up again, but the third time, since King Jin directly forced their carriage to stop.

There was no other way, Lu Yaoyao had no choice but to get out of the car.

"Your Highness, if you have anything to say, hurry up, and the courtiers are still working and go back to rest."

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't ask His Majesty for a marriage at the banquet. I didn't mean to force you, but I just heard about Qingyun and felt uncomfortable, so I recklessly asked His Majesty for grace."

Hearing this, Lu Yaoyao frowned slightly.

"What does your proposal have to do with Princess Qingyun?"

King Jin didn't hide it either, and spoke out exactly what he was thinking at the time.

"My king was just thinking at the time, since those guys don't like your background, then this king will let you improve."

"."

She really didn't expect King Jin's idea to be so naive?
It's kind of funny though.

"This explanation makes sense."

Although this reason is idiotic, but sometimes, no matter how smart a person is, there will be a moment of stupidity.

Especially when it comes to someone you like, otherwise there would be no such saying that IQ will drop after falling in love.

"Can you forgive me this time?"

"Well, forget it, it's nothing anyway."

Lu Yaoyao smiled and waved his hands.

"Then can you think about it?"

"Hey, don't push yourself too hard."

This King Jin really knows how to climb along the pole. She said she forgives it just now, and this guy is thinking about it again.

"It's not that this king is taking an inch. I really think that it is a good thing for you to agree to it."

"Fuck off, what kind of good thing is it to me? How dare you say such shameless things?"

Why didn't this guy see it before, so shameless?

"Listen to what I have to say."

"Let's just talk about Xirong's marriage today. How do they know you exist? And they call you for marriage?"

"It stands to reason that the first request for a marriage is to be a princess, but no one asks for the princess as soon as they come up. After all, this marriage is a contract between the two royal families."

"Your identity is clearly stated in the credential, so you don't feel anything wrong?"

Hearing this, Lu Yaoyao frowned tightly.

Something is really wrong.

"Judging from Xirong's attitude this time, I'm afraid you are already being targeted."

"This time it's Xirong, what about next time? Will it be Southern Xinjiang, or Northern Chu?"

"Your Majesty may disagree this time, but next time, what about the next time? Today you also saw the attitude of those courtiers. Faced with such conditions, there are still so many people who stand up and have such intentions. After that, What if the conditions given by the other party are very generous?"

"At that time, what will happen to the courtiers? What will happen to His Majesty?"

Hearing this, Lu Yaoyao fell silent.

She has never felt that Dongzhou can't do without her, especially in the emperor's heart, as long as the interests reach a certain level, who can't give up?
"Are you asking me to promise you, and then use this to prevent future troubles?"

Lu Yaoyao raised his eyebrows and looked at King Jin. This guy was really a bit of a thief, and he almost let her in.

"I have this idea. Of course, this king also knows that you haven't thought about it yet."

"Just now, this king thought of a way. You agreed to the marriage contract, but we are not in a hurry to get married. If you have a good choice in the future, how about this king willing to withdraw?"
