An Empire as a Betrothal Gift

Chapter 122: bride price

Views:

Royal study.

Sitting in front of the desk, Wei Lian glanced at the book handed over, without exception, persuading him to think twice.

The rhetoric has been repeated over and over again, such as "the marriage of a monarch of a country, it is really inappropriate to slip the world's big jokes" and so on.

After seeing another letter of advice, Wei Lian threw it away and rubbed his temples: "There are so many important things to deal with, so I'll keep an eye on this one."

Xiaodian was hugged by him on his lap, his dark eyes stared curiously at the folds that had been dropped, and he picked up a roll and opened it.

Wei Lian lowered his head and asked, "Little one, are you literate?"

The little guy blinked, as if he didn't understand.

Wei Lian said in disgust, "You can write poetry at the age of three, how come you don't even know a word?"

The little one was still confused.

He's a bona fide three-year-old and can't count on much.

"You're stupid." Wei Lian poked his head, "I overestimate you, it seems that someone is teaching you."

He was only halfway through when he saw this little guy playing on the side of the road, and when he saw him, he rushed over and threw himself into his arms, holding onto his legs.

Such an obvious way of touching porcelain immediately reminded Wei Lian that he also deliberately collided with Concubine Yan when he was a child, and since then he has earned a distinguished identity for himself. However, his collision method is much more subtle, and it looks like an accident.

At the age of six, he did it on purpose and was quite scheming.

And this little boy is three years old, if he knows how to make a career for himself, he is really a genius.

However, seeing Xiaobudian's naive appearance, Wei Lian retracted the idea.

Not everyone can be as smart as him.

Xiao Budian didn't quite understand what Wei Lian meant, but he could vaguely feel that he was being despised.

He felt a little angry.

The angry little bit angrily "hum", and the little short hand waved vigorously, sweeping all the memorials on the table petitioning His Majesty to give up the marriage to the ground.

It has the power of a king.

After doing the bad things, Xiao Budian raised his head and looked at Wei Lian in protest.

Wei Lian touched his head gently, and said in a pleasant tone, "Nice job." Xiaodian did what he wanted but couldn't do. After all, he had to give some face to the ministers who helped him a lot.

little guy:"… "

Qiao Hongfei, who saw this scene as soon as he came in: "..."

Well, he knew that His Majesty was very resentful about these folds.

Qiao Hongfei came in and was about to salute when Wei Lian interrupted him: "No need to salute."

He raised his chin slightly: "If you are here to persuade orphans, turn around and the door is over there."

Qiao Hongfei: "..."

"Your Majesty has his own measure." Qiao Hongfei raised his eyebrows, "But should Your Majesty be prepared? You haven't made any arrangements for the army, in case the King of Qin comes in..."

"He won't." Wei Lian was very determined.

Qiao Hongfei disagreed: "The Qin people are treacherous, how dare Your Majesty believe him. You give up resistance and wait for him to occupy the Chu State?"

"Gu is waiting for him to come..." Letter.

Before he could finish speaking, an eunuch entered the study and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, the envoy of the Qin state is asking to see you."

Wei Lian sat up a little more upright: "Xuan."

The messenger from the Qin State came, and after the ceremony, he presented the King Qin's reply.

Wei Lian opened the document and read it, the original unpleasant mood was swept away, and he became more cheerful.

Little Budian sat on his lap, leaned his head over his head, and recited word by word, "With Jiangshan... I ask for a marriage... I want my beloved to stay with you..."

He still didn't know many words and skipped a lot. But the information revealed is enough for Qiao Hongfei to make up the complete content.

Wei Lian smiled and looked down at Xiao Budian: "So it's not that you don't know the words, you just say something that you love to listen to."

"Master Taiwei, can you hear me?" Wei Lian closed the document and lowered his voice.

"I'm waiting for him to marry me."

Frost Moon Palace.

The name of this palace sounds desolate, and it is not very auspicious. The scene in the hall is just like its name, like the moon is cold and cold, the ground is covered with frost, and no one is seen for a long time.

A woman coughed once or twice from the bedroom.

"Madam." An elderly palace maid sat on the bed with a medicine bowl and whispered, "It's time to drink the medicine."

It was the maid who took care of the little Wangsun last time.

Mrs. Du's health is not good, and she has been lingering on the bed for many years. Her only son, Gongzi Su, is not filial, and has always been alone in this palace. She was unhappy, and simply dismissed all the palace servants in the inner court, leaving only a trusted palace maid.

The woman sat up with support, her face was pale and haggard, she was only thirty-nine years old, but like a woman in her fifties and vicissitudes.

There are many women like her in the deep palace. She still has a son by her side, and a grandson to relieve her boredom, which is much better than those concubines who don't even have children.

Madam Du took a sip of the medicine weakly and asked, "Xingyuan, how is Lin'er?"

Xing Yuan hurriedly replied: "His Royal Highness Wangsun is very obedient, so he threw himself straight into His Majesty's arms, and was carried back to the imperial study by His Majesty."

Mrs. Du nodded slightly, and was about to speak, when she looked up and caught a glimpse of the corner of the purple clothes, her face was even whiter.

Xing Yuan noticed something was wrong, and when she looked back, her expression changed drastically, and she knelt down quickly: "My maid, see Your Majesty! Your Majesty, what the maid just said, it's just..." How can she take the blame on herself without implicated Mrs.

Wei Lian hugged Xiao Budian, lowered his head and asked, "What did you just say?"

"..." Xing Yuan was at a loss for words.

Didn't your majesty hear that

Seeing that Xingyuan was in a dilemma, Mrs. Du wanted to stay in the hotel to greet her, but Wei Lian stopped her and said, "Mrs. Tai is in an ill health, so you don't need to see outsiders."

Mrs. Du froze: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your understanding."

"Grandma!" Little Budian struggled to get off Wei Lian and threw himself on the head of the bed.

Mrs. Du touched him gently, and the grandparents and grandchildren seemed to be in a good relationship.

After all, Little Budian grew up in the Frost Moon Palace as soon as he was born, and his relationship with his grandmother is far better than his father's.

Wei Lian picked up a chair and sat down. Madam Du smiled slightly and instructed Xing Yuan, "Xing Yuan, go serve tea."

His Majesty will definitely not visit for no reason, and if there is something to discuss, it is necessary to support the maid.

Xing Yuan understood and silently withdrew.

Wei Lianfang opened his mouth and said, "Mrs. Tai pointed out Wang Sun's collision with Gu, is she trying to make a future for him?"
