The queen cried the whole harem

Chapter 412 I underestimated Uncle Jiang again 15
After seeing Qi Hengyuan, Uncle Jiang went to see Jiang Chengchi and felt that one was heaven and the other was earth.

Although Jiang Chengchi has changed a lot now, the weakness in his bones can never be compensated for.

Jiang Chengchi is many times stronger than others, but compared to Qi Hengyuan, he is completely no match.

If Jiang Chengchi was not inferior to others and the Mu family was no longer around, why would Uncle Jiang Wang negotiate?

With Uncle Jiang's warlike nature, he will fight to the end.

But now, he has no choice.

Although Uncle Jiang is a prince, after all, Jiang Chengchi is the king of a country. In front of the king and ministers of Qi, Uncle Jiang will not step out of line.

Uncle Jiang said hello to Qi Hengyuan and retreated to the second line.

Jiang Chengchi stood there, looking at Qi Hengyuan.

Qi Hengyuan did not look at Jiang Chengchi as he looked at Jiang Wangshu.

First of all, Jiang Chengchi is nothing in Qi Hengyuan's eyes.

Secondly, Qi Hengyuan met Jiang Chengchi in the battle of Yuling Pass.

If it weren't for Yu Biao fighting to the death to protect his master, Qi Hengyuan would have captured Jiang Chengchi alive that time.

Since he didn't take him seriously and had already seen him before, Qi Hengyuan had no interest in paying attention to Jiang Chengchi anymore.

This ceasefire agreement was also initiated by Uncle Jiang, and had nothing to do with Jiang Chengchi, even though he was the king of Jiang State.

Qi Hengyuan's nonchalant attitude towards Jiang Chengchi made Jiang Chengchi feel humiliated. There was anger on his face and he was about to lose his temper when Uncle Jiang Wang grabbed him.

Jiang Chengchi looked at Uncle Jiang Wang, and when he saw Uncle Jiang Wang's warning to him, he suppressed his anger.

He took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and said, "Your Majesty Qi, let's get started!"

Qi Hengyuan nodded, and the two parties sat at both ends of the negotiation table.

Many years later, Qi Hengyuan regretted it very much. He should have paid more attention to Jiang Chengchi at this time. He wanted to know what kind of person the man who betrayed Mu Huajia and caused her tragic death was.

But at that time, Qi Hengyuan had no interest in Jiang Chengchi, so much so that many years later, whenever Qi Hengyuan thought of this incident, he felt it was a regret.

He should have scolded Jiang Chengchi harshly at that time.

But at that time, he knew nothing and did nothing.

By the time he found out, Jiang Chengchi was already dead.

The negotiations went smoothly at the beginning. After all, Uncle King Jiang was sincere in returning the three passes and three cities. The soldiers and civilians of Jiang State had all evacuated, so why was he still being pretentious?

In less than an incense stick of time, the affairs of the three border passes were handed over. The two parties wrote letters to prove that the three passes had been returned to Qi, and the territories where the three passes were located were also returned intact to Zhao and given to Qi.

The two countries re-determined the border line, divided the territorial scope, and each affixed the imperial seal to show that it was effective.

After finishing this matter, Uncle Jiang made another request.

"As a token of friendship between our two countries, Jiang is willing to offer a princess to marry into Qi. Our two countries will have mutual marriages and no longer be divided between us."

Qi Hengyuan snorted inwardly, thinking, the old fox has finally revealed his tail.

Just as Yan Ning said, there was indeed something wrong with Jiang Guo coming to negotiate with such a big fuss.

See, here comes the problem.

The return of the three passes and three cities was fake; the real purpose was to send people into Qi.

When the princess of Jiang State arrived in Qi State, she certainly could not marry into an ordinary family.

Either marry into the palace or marry into the mansion of a powerful official. No matter which one, Jiang State has planted a spy in Qi State.

This spy was married in a legitimate way.

The armistice agreement had just been negotiated and the two sides had entered a period of peace. It was understandable that Uncle King Jiang wanted to use marriage to consolidate such a relationship.

Qi Hengyuan pointed his index finger at the table and did not respond for a while.

Of course he was unwilling to agree, but he would not speak rashly.

He winked at Liu Guoxiang.

Liu Guoxiang said with a smile: "Lord Jiang, you know that our emperor loves Concubine Yan deeply. Now that Concubine Yan is pregnant, she needs your emperor the most. If your emperor marries your princess, you will not be able to take care of Concubine Yan. No matter how capable Concubine Yan is, she is still a woman. If she gets jealous, it will affect the fetus in her belly."

"We all understand what Lord Jiang meant. You want the world to know that Jiang is sincere in establishing peace and is willing to marry to maintain friendship between the two countries. But if you hurt Concubine Yan and the prince in her belly, then you're doing something bad with good intentions."

"If Qi State really causes the prince to get into trouble because of a marriage, I'm afraid that the peace that has been established with great difficulty will be broken again. Lord Jiang, do you think I am sorry for what I said?"

Uncle Jiang glanced at Prime Minister Liu, then at Qi Hengyuan, and said with a smile: "Prince Liu is right, it was my fault for neglecting it."

He was so easy to talk to that Liu Guoxiang was slightly stunned, and Qi Hengyuan also frowned instantly.

Qi Hengyuan paused tapping his fingers on the table. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Uncle Jiang.

Uncle Jiang smiled and said, "Since it is not appropriate for our princess to marry there, how about letting our majesty marry a noble lady from Qi?"

"I know that Qi has no princess, and our Majesty will not marry your princess. Even if Qi has a princess, I'm sure you won't want her to marry far away."

"Since we are here to negotiate and maintain peace, I will not force anyone to do anything. However, I am here to maintain peace and friendship between our two countries. Since Qi is unwilling to marry our princess, I will shamelessly ask Qi to marry a noble lady."

"Of course, this lady is not requested for me, but for our country's Majesty. As you know, our Majesty does not have a queen yet. After the lady of Qi marries into Jiang, she will be the mother of the country."

Liu Guoxiang and Qi Hengyuan were both shocked.

Even Chen Dongyan, Chen Hong and Yan Lang, who were following behind, were startled.

The position of Queen is not just an ordinary marriage.

The three of them frowned, feeling that this was very strange.

Liu Guoxiang didn't dare to speak casually. At the negotiation table today, he acted according to Qi Hengyuan's instructions.

This matter needs Qi Hengyuan's approval.

Chen Dongyan, Chen Hong, Yan Lang, and even Liu Guoxiang, all noticed the unusualness here, let alone Qi Hengyuan.

Qi Hengyuan thought that he had underestimated Uncle Jiang again. He thought that his fox tail was hidden in the princess who was married off, but it turned out that it was hidden here.

Qi Hengyuan did not refuse immediately, but asked: "Uncle Jiang, which noble lady of Qi do you think is worthy of your Majesty and can be the mother of Jiang's harem?"

Uncle Jiang smiled and said, "That's something you'll have to ask your Majesty."

He threw this hot potato to Jiang Chengchi, but in fact, the grandfather and grandson had already discussed it, and now they were just cooperating.

Qi Hengyuan raised his head and looked at Jiang Chengchi, but didn't look at him carefully.

He despised Jiang Chengchi from the bottom of his heart.

"Your Majesty, do you have a noble lady from Qi that you like?"

Jiang Chengchi frowned and said, "No, I have never even met a noble lady from Qi State, how could I possibly like any of them?"

"So what kind of lady do you want?"

Jiang Chengchi thought for a moment and said, "He must be from a military family."
