The palace was very quiet for the next few days, and of course it was only quiet in the Queen Mother's palace. Ji Zhan was now very busy, and had to find time to fight with the royal nobles of the Qi clan.
He has clearly made concessions to these royal family members, but before he married Agua, these people dared to attack Agua. If nothing was done, these people would only be more likely to get in trouble.
Bai Jingrong ignored these and just sat quietly in his palace to recuperate. No one knew what he did secretly.
Everyone only knew one thing: the Queen Mother's other son, Ji Rong, had left the royal court and his whereabouts were unknown.
Ji Zhan felt very uncomfortable about this. It was not that he didn't know that Bai Jingrong must have sent Ji Zhan to handle something important, but this incident also showed that between his brother and his mother, Ji Rong chose the latter.
Luo Junyao was a little bored these two days. Apart from waiting in front of Bai Jingrong and checking on the status of Qu Fang, he stayed in his room and did not even leave the door of the Queen Mother's palace.
But just because she didn't go out didn't mean that others wouldn't come looking for her. When the palace maid came to tell her that Princess Aguya was looking for her, Luo Junyao was sitting at the table knitting a newly learned traditional bracelet of the Qi people.
Hearing this, he couldn't help but raise his head with a confused look on his face, "Princess Agua? What does she want from me?"
Naturally, the maid didn't know, "The Queen Mother said that Princess Agua is a guest. Since she named you to play with, you go and play with her."
"Oh, I understand." Luo Jun shook his head, put away his things, stood up and walked out.
It has only been two days since Princess Agua looked like her normal self. Apparently the previous poisoning did not have much impact on her.
Seeing Luo Junyao walking with the maid, she smiled and waved to Luo Junyao and said, "Miss Chu Chu, we meet again."
Luo Junyao looked at her but didn't reply. Instead, he looked at Bai Jingrong in the main seat.
"Empress?"
Bai Jingrong said lazily: "Agua said that she is not familiar with the royal court and is very bored by herself. She wants you to accompany her to play."
Luo Junyao blinked his eyes and said honestly: "Empress Qi, I am... not very familiar with you either."
Bai Jingrong naturally knew that Luo Junyao was unfamiliar, but she didn't care. She waved her hand and said, "Go ahead. Agua is a guest after all. Just bring a few people who know the way."
Luo Junyao naturally couldn't refuse and obediently agreed.
Agua happily pulled her out and walked out without forgetting to say goodbye to Bai Jingrong.
After leaving the palace, the outside has returned to its former appearance.
However, the disruptions of the past few days and the current war still had a considerable impact on the Qi royal court.
In the past, there were far fewer business travelers coming and going, and even the number of people in the royal court was also reduced, making it feel somewhat lonely.
People walking on the street looked solemn and walked in a hurry, which made people feel heavy.
Aguya pulled Luo Junyao all the way to the market. When she saw two women who were obviously of foreign origin, people in the market became a little wary.
It wasn't until he saw the people dressed as palace guards behind the two of them that they relaxed their vigilance.
Luo Junyao helplessly allowed Aguya to drag him around the market. Is he really so curious about the market of the Qi Clan Royal Court?
She didn't believe that this Princess Aguya should have arrived at the royal court of the Qi people at about the same time as them, and she was not sent to the palace like Zhu'er. She didn't believe that she had never been to the market.
By the time Agua was tired of shopping, she had already bought a lot of things.
The two of them found a place to sit down and drink milk tea. Agua picked through the pile of things she bought. She only kept a few items and passed the rest to Luo Junyao.
Luo Junyao was a little confused, "Princess, what are you doing?"
"I'll give it to you." Agua said generously.
Luo Junyao looked at the things in front of him and was speechless. Agua was very generous and the things she bought were not cheap. The whole lot added up was even more valuable.
Luo Junyao quickly shook his head and said: "No reward for no merit, I am just a maid, how can I dare to accept something so expensive from the princess?"
Agua didn't comment on her rejection. Instead, she looked at her with her chin in her hands and said, "I heard that A Zhan wanted to accept you as his concubine, but you rejected him?"
"..." Luo Junyao was helpless and sighed: "Princess, where did you hear this gossip? Why would the king want to accept me as his concubine? Do you think I have a good family background or good looks?"
Agua looked her up and down, with a bit of confusion in her eyes.
This girl named Chu Chu is good-looking, but she cannot be said to be extremely beautiful.
Not to mention your status, if you were of high status you wouldn't be a maid.
"I asked A Zhan and he didn't deny it," Agua said.
Luo Junyao said: "Did the king admit it himself? Maybe he just felt that the princess's question was too strange and there was no need to answer it?"
Agua shook her head and said, "No matter what, he always treats you a little differently."
Seeing Luo Junyao's eyes immediately showing vigilance after hearing this, Agua smiled and said: "Don't worry, I won't do anything to you?"
Luo Junyao laughed dryly, this is hard to say.
Agua looked at her for a while and said, "I also think you are very interesting. How about I go ask the Queen Mother to ask you to come to me?"
Luo Junyao blinked twice quickly and asked puzzledly: "Why?"
Agua snorted softly, raised her chin slightly and said, "Have you heard that A-Zhan wants to marry another woman from the Qi clan to be his queen?"
Luo Jun shook his head. Agua's beautiful face was full of disgust, "How shameless! You actually forced A Zhan to marry her. Can't she get married?"
Is it possible that the girl may not have the right to choose? Even if she does, as long as Ji Zhan does not refuse, the Qi people will still choose another girl.
"Don't the princess want the king to marry that girl?"
"Of course I don't want to." Agua said matter-of-factly: "Who would want to have a love rival before we get married?"
Luo Junyao said: "If the princess does not want to be married to someone else, she can choose not to marry the king. I heard from the Queen Mother that the princess's father and brother love the princess, so they will not force the princess."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Why?" Agua said dissatisfied: "I like A-Zhan, A-Zhan also likes me, that woman is the one who should quit."
Luo Junyao's face was full of doubts, "So the princess wants me to tell the Queen Mother that the king should not marry the girl chosen by the clan?"
Agua rolled her eyes and said, "Can you persuade me?"
Luo Junyao shook his head honestly: "I can't persuade you."
Agua looked at Luo Junyao, hesitated for a moment and said, "I want you to marry A-Zhan with me."
"Pfft!" Luo Junyao didn't pay attention and spit out the milk tea in his mouth, and then he coughed violently, causing tears to gleam in his eyes.
"Ahem...Why, why?"
Agua snorted softly and said with an ugly face: "As you know, I was drugged by those people. The doctor said that I won't be able to give birth to a child in three years."
"So..." Luo Junyao felt that his voice was a little distorted.
Agua said: "As long as you help me give birth to a child before that woman does, I will be kind to you in the future. You can tell me what you want."
"..." Luo Junyao used all his concentration to prevent the expression on his face from becoming ferocious.
After enduring it for a long time, he finally said: "Princess, it's not like you can't have children. For the Qi people, the ranking of children is not that important, and the king doesn't seem to be the eldest son."
Agua sneered and said: "Do you think I don't know? A Zhan said that those guys are planning to make the woman a prince as soon as she gives birth to a child. How can I let them succeed?"
Luo Junyao finally stopped coughing, and said with some sincerity: "Princess, do you want to stop thinking about this marriage? Don't you think it will be very troublesome to get married? If in your capacity you go back to Xitian to find a suitable husband, who will
Dare you suffer a little injustice? Why bother?"
Agua didn't want to but looked at her with a wary face, "You are not really interested in A Zhan and want to trick me into giving up my position as queen, are you?"
"..." You deserve to dig wild vegetables.
Luo Junyao was too lazy to say any more to the love-minded princess. He just said firmly: "Thank you for your love, princess. I just want to be a maid with the Queen Mother, but I am really not worthy of the king."
Agua was a little unhappy, "You really don't think about it? As long as you are obedient, I can give you whatever you want in the future, which is better than you being a maid in front of the Queen Mother for a hundred years. The Queen Mother may not treat you well."
?I gave you to someone else before."
Luo Jun shook his head, "Princess, you should find someone else, I can't bear it."
Agua snorted softly and was about to get up and leave when she saw several people approaching the two of them.
Luo Junyao raised his head and saw that the leader of the visitor was a beautiful Qi girl of eighteen or nineteen years old, followed by several young men and women of similar age, and behind them were several guard slaves.
About ten people immediately surrounded the table where the two of them were sitting.
They were sitting in a food stall on the side of the road with a felt covering above their heads. At the moment, there were only two or three tables of people sitting here and there. When they saw a group of people coming in and surrounding the two little girls, they immediately looked like they were watching a good show.
His eyes looked this way.
"Which one of you is Agua?" one of the teenagers asked.
Both of them were wearing ordinary Qi costumes outside the palace, and for a while it was impossible to tell the difference in their identities.
Agua said proudly: "I am the princess, who are you?"
The young man looked Agua up and down, and said with some disdain: "Are you the Princess of Khotan? She doesn't look very good. It's so shameless. The daughter of a mere tribal leader dares to compete with my sister for her husband.
.”
"Who is your sister?" Agua asked.
The young man said: "My sister is Ji Raoyue."
"I am Ji Raoyue." The girl in the lead said.
Agua quickly reacted and said angrily: "You insist on marrying A Zhan?! You are so shameless! A Zhan obviously doesn't want to marry you, but you still insist on marrying him!"
As soon as these words came out, the situation exploded instantly.
Luo Junyao lay on the table bored, looking at the boys and girls in front of him who were gearing up to teach Agua a lesson and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
