Luodu, North City Gate.
The main street leading to the city gate is wide and flat. There are many shops on both sides of the street, and endless teahouses and restaurants. There were shouts and noises, and it was very lively.
In a private room on the second floor of a restaurant, the windows facing the street were ajar, and someone seemed to be visiting inside.
"Princess, we are here on the third day. I don't know when the young master will arrive. Do you have to wait for another day?" A palace maid walked up to the veiled woman sitting on the bedside and whispered softly. asked.
In his tone, there was a complaint about the woman's injustice.
"If you don't want to be here, you can leave." Qin Yiyao's cold voice came, like the wind blowing from the snow-capped mountains.
The palace maid hurriedly knelt under her blue dress and apologized: "I was wrong, princess. Please forgive me. I just feel sorry for the princess. Why don't you send someone to Mu Mansion to find out the specific time of the young master's return."
"No need." Qin Yiyao quickly refused, with a hint of panic in her tone.
It seemed that she didn't want Mu Qingge to know about everything she did.
The maid bit her lip and knelt on the ground, looking up at Qin Yiyao's beautiful and cold profile, her eyes filled with distress. She really didn't understand, their princess was so good and the best woman in the world, why did the young lord break off the engagement
It was okay to break off the engagement, but after so long, the princess still couldn't let go.
During these days, the princess' whole body seemed to be wrapped in ice, and no strangers were allowed to enter.
It seemed that only about the young lord, could one see a hint of hidden emotion on her face.
The princess is like this, and the concubine and Prince Rui in the palace don't care.
The more she thought about it, the more the maid felt aggrieved for her master, and her eyes suddenly became slightly red and moist.
Suddenly, Qin Yiyao's voice came again, seeming to be asking but not asking: "The envoys from Tu Guo arrived three days ago. I heard that they have proposed marriage to my father."
The maid raised her head and looked at her master in astonishment.
She understood this. However, it is because I understand that I feel scared.
Seeking marriage
That means asking Qin to marry a princess to slaughter the country
However, the marriageable princess in Qin is the only princess of her own family!
Wouldn't that mean that Princess Changle would be married off to Tu Guo
"Princess, I have heard that the climate of Tugu is harsh and the people are as tough as uncivilized savages. Most of the land is barren and the people are poor. Even among the noble families, most of them are ignorant of ethics. You are the pride of heaven. Girl, how can you go to that kind of place? Why don't we go to the Imperial Concubine or His Highness Prince Rui... They are your mother and brother, and they will definitely not let you suffer." The palace maid said eagerly.
"Begging them?" Qin Yiyao murmured bitterly.
I am afraid that at this moment, they are wishing that they would be married off by Tu Guo. In this way, wouldn't it be possible to have the soldiers and horses that the emperor's brother has been praying for
The battle between the emperor's brother and the prince has become more and more fierce. If Tu Guo's powerful troops come to help, the chances of winning will not increase by one or two points.
What's more, if she really marries Tugu and becomes the prince's concubine. A hundred years after the killing of the emperor, she can sit on the throne of the queen, which will be a deterrent to the entire Qin State. Her mother's good brother will make the position more stable.
Qin Yiyao has a clear mind. Although he does not participate in these battles, he sees everything clearly.
He knew even more clearly that he was just a chess piece.
For her mother and brother's desire for power, her role was only to sacrifice for their great cause.
