Traveling through Tianlong: Starting from the Zhenlong chess game

Chapter 251 The Strongest “Wingman” Song Zhezong

After Zhao Mu heard Mu Wanqing's words, he couldn't ask any more questions.

Then Zhao Mu sat back and said: "In that case, Wan'er will stay in my house temporarily during this period. Just don't run around, this is a serious crime of deceiving the emperor. If we are discovered, then we will be punished It's a small matter. It's a big deal that the newly eased relationship between Dali and Song Dynasty is affected. If the war breaks out again and all lives are devastated, neither you nor I can bear this responsibility."

Although Zhao Mu's chattering made Mu Wanqing a little annoying. But Mu Wanqing also knew the seriousness of this matter. She held her face and said, "I know! I will pay attention to it in the future."

"Yes! Wan'er is also a sensible and good girl. There are countless pairs of eyes staring at me in the capital now, and marriage with a foreign country is very sensitive in itself. From now on, everyone should try to be as low-key as possible." Zhao Mu sighed after finishing speaking. Take a breath.

Looking at the affectionate expressions of the two of them, Hu Yanjin said, "Why don't you ask me?"

Zhao Mu turned around and asked, "What are you asking?"

Hu Yanjin said with a dark face: "Why don't you ask me why I am in the capital and not in the valley of deafness and muteness to accompany Master!"

Zhao Mu heard this and asked, "Oh! Why?"

Faced with Zhao Mu's extremely perfunctory attitude, Hu Yanjin couldn't help but gritted her teeth and complained: "You are too perfunctory!"

Zhao Mu smiled and said: "This is not me being perfunctory. But Princess Huyan, you are free. I am introducing you to my senior brother as a disciple, and I am not selling you. You can come and go freely. Not to mention you and me. We all live in this capital city, why is it so strange for you to go home? If I even ask about this kind of thing, don’t you think I’m in trouble like an old lady? Hahaha.”

Hu Yanjin couldn't help but snort when she heard Zhao Mu's laughter. She was about to say that Zhao Mu's personality would not please girls, but seeing the group around him, she had to swallow her words.

Mu Wanqing smiled at this moment and said, "Sister Huyan is here for a 'blind date' when she returns to Beijing."

Zhao Mu pretended to say: "Then Xiao Wang congratulates Princess Huyan on finding a good son-in-law!"

Hu Yanjin frowned and said, "Are you sincerely angry with me?" But then Hu Yanjin said with a smile, "But with the emperor's grace, the marriage that my father arranged for me was rejected."

"Oh?" Zhao Mu became interested when he heard this, and asked: "What's going on? The emperor has so many things to do, but he still cares about such a trivial matter?"

Hu Yanjin replied: "That's the case. Originally, I learned the art well from my master in the Heavenly Deafness and Earthly Dumb Valley, but because you have been missing for too long, Long Wei once went to the Heavenly Deafness and Earthly Dumb Valley to look for you. Although they didn't find you, they found me. Later, my father personally sent someone to lie to me, saying that my mother was too worried and couldn't afford to fall ill, so he deceived me back. Only after I returned home did I know that my father had arranged for me There’s a marriage.”

Zhao Mu asked: "Oh? I don't know which family the young master is from? Back then, even the second son of Chai had never made the Lord Huyan smile. I don't know which family's young master is lucky enough to be the husband of the Princess Huyan."

Hu Yanjin spread her hands and replied: "Of course it belongs to the Tianbo Yang Mansion. Yang Huaixin, the young master of the Yang family, is about to get married, so my father is willing to pay a thousand gold as a dowry for me to marry into the Tianbo Yang Mansion. But I am older than Young Master Yang is five or six years older. I have already passed the peach and plum years, and even rushed to send flowers and letters, and he is just a kid who wants to learn. How can this be appropriate!"

Zhao Mu said with a bad smile: "It's nothing. When my father was still alive, he married my mother in her prime when she was over fifty. You are a perfect match!" But seeing Hu Yanjin's expression, Zhao Mu had no choice but to shut up. Mouth.

Hu Yanjin continued: "The Yang family and my father both attach great importance to this marriage, and even asked my sister-in-law and sister Zi to discuss it!"

"Oh? Are the eldest sister and the second sister a matchmaker? Then there is a high possibility that this marriage will happen." Zhao Mu said.

Hu Yanjin said: "Yes, and the Yang family and my father have already reached an agreement. My father was afraid that I would escape again, so he petitioned the emperor to grant a marriage between Zhongxiao Prince and Tianbo Mansion. Originally, this kind of Most of the consensual matters, the emperor would take a look at, and then approve them accordingly. However, the result this time was far beyond everyone's expectations." Hu Yanjin spread out his fan at this time, covered his face and said with a smile: "Then The emperor's reply to my father was 'No, I have other arrangements for Jinzhi's marriage'. Because of this incident, none of the princes in the capital dared to propose marriage to my Prince Zhongxiao. And neither did my father. Don’t force me again.”

Zhao Mu understood what Zhe Zong meant. He didn't expect that his nephew, the emperor, would actually do things. He had just told him that he liked Hu Yanjin. And he used the imperial power in his hands to directly keep Hu Yanjin here. He is simply the strongest wingman!

However, Zhao Mu still smiled deliberately and said: "Oh! Then Xiao Wang congratulates Princess Huyan."

Looking at Zhao Mu's malicious look, Hu Yanjin narrowed his eyes and asked, "Congratulations! What are you congratulating me for?"

Zhao Mu smiled and said: "Of course I would like to congratulate Princess Huyan on entering the palace and becoming the empress. Since the emperor does not allow Princess Huyan to marry, I am afraid he is not interested in you."

It's not that Hu Yanjin has never thought of this level, but no one dares to say these words. It is taboo to speculate on the holy will. But when Zhao Mu said it now, it really sent shivers down Hu Yanjin's spine.

In Hu Yanjin's eyes, Zhezong, like Yang Huaixin, was a little kid of fifteen or sixteen years old. She doesn't like men who are much younger than herself. Besides, what's the good thing about being a queen? You have to be locked up in a deep palace compound for the rest of your life.

Hu Yanjin's dream is to become a female general fighting for the Song Dynasty like Yang Yanqi and Mu Guiying. Not a canary in a cage.

Just as Hu Yanjin was thinking about the terrible consequences that Zhao Mu said, Mu Wanqing gave her a big "last strike" at an inappropriate time.

Mu Wanqing murmured: "It's possible that I want to send Sister Huyan to get married. Aren't I sent to the Song Dynasty by my father and uncle? Sister Huyan is also a princess. Although she is not a royal family, she has the same blood. Noble. Perhaps the emperor of the Song Dynasty wanted to send Sister Huyan to make peace with Xixia or Liao, in order to achieve the goal of peace between the two countries."

When Hu Yanjin heard this, his pupils trembled and his heart trembled.

Seeing Hu Yanjin like this, Zhao Mu smiled and said: "Don't worry, Princess Huyan. Although our Song Dynasty is a bit cowardly to the outside world, we can't rely on a woman to protect it. There is still no precedent for marriage in our Song Dynasty since Taizu. . Today’s emperor is a sage, and he will naturally not do such a thing.”

Mu Wanqing smiled and said: "Since you won't get married, then maybe as Zhao Lang said, the Emperor of the Song Dynasty fell in love with you, Sister Huyan."

"This" Hu Yanjin really didn't know what to say right now.

Although Zhao Mu knew the whole story, he couldn't tell them yet.

One was Mu Wanqing, who was jealous. Although she had persuaded Zhao Mu to marry Hu Yanjin, women were fickle.

She advises you to marry ≠ she really agrees. Maybe it was just a kind word from her.

The marriage to Mu Wanqing is only about ten days away now, so it's better not to cause any complications. After marriage, Zhao Mu naturally had his own way of making Mu Wanqing cry and beg him to have more wives and concubines.

The two are the "deal" between myself and Zhe Zong, so it's better not to tell others. If Hu Yanjin knew that she was just a gift from Zhe Zong to satisfy Zhao Mu's desires, I don't know what she would think.
