Chapter 840: Huo'er's Guidance
"Did I lose?" Shangguan Jianjia looked at Xin Ruyan in disbelief, and then at the envoy.
But these people didn't dare to look at her at all until now.
Looking at everyone in Dawu, from the emperor to the officials, they were all in high spirits.
Shangguan Jianjia stumbled and almost fell. He couldn't believe that he really lost?
But the fact is that, although no one judged her and Wu Yuan's music just now, no matter in terms of artistic conception or lyrics and music, there is no doubt that Wu Yuan's music has aroused more resonance and is a head above her level.
But even so, let her accept the ending of failure.
What she thought was a sure-win situation would be defeat at the hands of the deposed prince Wu Yuan.
Thinking of this, there was a hint of resentment in his originally fiery eyes.
But at this time, Emperor Wu spoke slowly, "Princess Shangguan, it seems that I, Dawu, won today's competition."
Shangguan Jianjia was unwilling to give up. He took a deep breath and said with a gloomy face: "I didn't expect that His Highness Wu Yuan of your country gave me a big surprise."
"However, what is even more unexpected is that a talented person like His Highness Wu Yuan can be deposed. It seems that the Great Wu Kingdom is nothing more than this."
Shangguan Jianjia's words can be said to have slapped the face of all the civil and military dynasties of the Great Wu Kingdom, including Emperor Wu.
Wu Yuan was snickering, and suddenly felt that this Shangguan princess was quite cute and easy to deal with.
But Wu Yuan didn't understand either. What was the purpose of Shangguan Jianjia's words at this moment?
Not only Wu Yuan, but also those literary scholars were puzzled.
But someone immediately stood up and said, "Your Majesty, in His Highness Wu Yuan's poems and lyrics, one can hear the ambition and the melancholy of being ambitious. I would like to ask Your Majesty to give His Highness Wu Yuan another chance."
"I second the proposal!" The prime minister of the dynasty also stood up and spoke.
"I second the proposal." The ministers followed closely.
At this moment, no matter how one stood in the past, now it is time to assess the situation and the restoration of Prince Wu Yuan is already unstoppable.
However, Emperor Wu's face was not as happy as before.
Seeing that all the ministers were speaking for Wu Yuan, I felt extremely uncomfortable.
He glanced at Wu Yuan again, but what he was thinking about was, Wu Yuan was hiding so deeply, was he planning something?
The moment Wu Yuan met Emperor Wu's eyes, his heart suddenly skipped a beat.
Since ancient times, the emperor's heart has been unpredictable, and there was nothing wrong with it. However, after Shangguan Jianjia made such a fuss, the ministers had to take a stand at this time.
This is bad.
He immediately glared at Shangguan Jianjia, thinking that this woman was speaking for him, but he didn't expect that she was so clever at killing people and killing people.
Shangguan Jianjia looked back and smiled, with deep meaning.
Wu Yuan had no time to pay attention to this girl, so he stepped out and shouted loudly: "Father, please listen to my words."
Emperor Wu still greeted him with a smile on his face, and said with a smile: "Yuan'er, tell me."
"Father, I have already figured it out. A capable person will get the position of crown prince. Although I am the eldest son, I also know that all the younger brothers are dissatisfied. I am willing to set an example and ask my father to use his merits.
Reserve and coordinate with virtue."
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.
Some people think that Wu Yuan is still Wu Yuan and is still stupid.
But there are a few smart people who immediately saw the secret, and looked at Wu Yuan with a hint of admiration.
Emperor Wu laughed unconsciously, "Yuan'er really impressed my father. Well, since you are determined, I will help you. But you are the eldest son after all, so you can continue to stay in the East Palace."
Hearing this, Wu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.
Although it was different from what was expected, as long as he was still in the East Palace, no one would dare to blatantly touch him.
At least life was saved for the time being.
All the princes, including the second prince Wu Zheng, had different expressions at this time. They could not tell whether they were happy, angry or sad, but they probably felt very depressed.
Everyone knows that Wu Yuan only needs an opportunity to restore his position as crown prince.
After Wu Yuan resolved Emperor Wu's suspicion, he did not forget to give Shangguan Jianjia a provocative look.
Shangguan Jianjia didn't succeed, so he was still filled with resentment.
Seeing Wu Yuan's provocation, and seeing ministers like Da Wu smiling from ear to ear because of the victory, they couldn't bear it anymore.
"Emperor Wu, it's just a small competition, not fun at all. I would like to ask Emperor Wu if you dare to play something big with me, Dayu."
Emperor Wu, who was in a good mood, also became interested and said, "Let's talk and listen."
Shangguan Jianjia seemed to have made up his mind and said: "Three days later, our two countries will compete again. If I, Dayu, lose, when I fight against Tianli Kingdom, I, Dayu, are willing to take the lead and give me a thousand
Yashen Machine Crossbow."
"But I, Dayu, have won. In addition to returning the three cities to me, Dayu, I also want him to be my consort."
There was an uproar in the hall.
Simply speaking, the conditions put forward by Shangguan Jianjia were something that Dawu could not refuse. Dayu was powerful because of the existence of the divine machine crossbow, not to mention that he was willing to take the lead in the fight against Tianli Kingdom. This was self-evident to Dawu's benefit.
What Dawu lost was nothing more than three dilapidated cities that had been fighting for years, and a deposed prince who only knew how to live in debauchery.
What a bargain!
It's just that now, Emperor Wu might not be willing to let go of this deposed prince.
At this time, the most happy one was the second prince Wu Zheng and other princes. They immediately began to concentrate their firepower and talked about the benefits of the competition.
Wu Yuan smacked his lips, also thinking about the pros and cons.
It seems that he is not at a loss either. Although Shangguan Jianjia has a strong personality, she is really beautiful.
But he doesn't want to be a door-to-door son-in-law, but this opportunity is what he wants. If he can make a difference again, he feels that he can't escape the position of prince.
I knew in my heart that this matter was a foregone conclusion and Emperor Wu would not refuse.
In this case, it is better to maximize your own interests.
Shangguan Jianjia probably regarded him as a thorn in his side and wanted to get rid of him. In this case, the best punishment for this woman was to take away the knife in her hand.
"Princess Shangguan is very good at calculating. A competition is not impossible, but there is a condition." Wu Yuan said with a smile.
Shangguan Jianjia looked wary, but still said: "What are the conditions?"
"Although Princess Shangguan is not as good as my Crown Princess, she is also beautiful and fragrant. I feel pity for her. Since Princess Shangguan likes me very much, and I just lack a bed-warming concubine, in three days, if I win the battle, please
How about Dayu telling the world that Princess Shangguan is allowed to marry me as my concubine?"
As soon as Wu Yuan finished speaking, Shangguan Jianjia became angry. She was a beloved daughter of heaven and could not accept being a concubine, let alone a concubine.
"Why, Princess Shangguan doesn't want to? Then in my opinion there is no need to compete."
Emperor Wu and other ministers also reacted, but no one opposed Wu Yuan's proposal.
This move is beneficial to Dawu. The joint talks between the two countries are inherently non-binding. If Shangguan Jianjia can be controlled, Dawu may be able to take the initiative.
Will Shangguan Jianjia agree?
Unexpectedly, Shangguan Jianjia did not hesitate at all, "Okay, I agree."
After saying that, Shangguan Jianjia no longer stayed, said goodbye to Emperor Wu, turned around and left with Dayu's envoy.
Wu Yuan knew that the limelight was too high today, so in order to avoid Emperor Wu's suspicion, he stopped staying and took Xin Ruyan out of the Yangxin Palace.
Back in the alley of the East Palace, Wu Yuan suddenly asked: "Ruyan, do you still want to make peace with me now?"
"What?" Xin Ruyan was still in a daze and didn't hear what Wu Yuan said at all.
Wu Yuan had no choice but to ask again, "I said you still want to make peace with me?"
"I..." Xin Ruyan was speechless for a moment, and even looked a little at a loss.
It's enough to show how tangled he is in his heart.
Wu Yuan was happy and ready to strike while the iron was hot and completely conquer this unrivaled beauty.
Unexpectedly, just when he was about to make a move, Xin Ruyan's pupils suddenly shrank, and then he shouted, "Be careful!"
Wu Yuan subconsciously turned around and saw an arrow shooting towards him. It was so fast that he couldn't dodge it.
Chapter completed!
