Dongfang Peng naturally wanted to fight the battle with the Great Zhou Kingdom, but he had to find a high-sounding reason. For no other reason than to prevent the Great Qi Kingdom from finding an excuse to get involved.
After all, Dali doesn't have much advantage in two against one.
Therefore, the lead is very important. If the princess of Dali is murdered in Dazhou, then the battle will be a grudge between the two countries, and Daqi will naturally have no reason to intervene.
Originally, I thought it would be enough to leave Dongfang Qi alone in the Night King's Mansion, but after today's battle with the Night King and Princess Ye, Dongfang Peng felt that she was extremely difficult to deal with.
Maybe his people wouldn't be able to attack the Night King's Mansion at all, so Dongfang Qi's lead might not be possible at all.
Wouldn't this plan be in vain? Miss the best opportunity to attack the Great Zhou Kingdom?
So Dongfang Peng thought about it while drinking, and decided to keep Dongfang Yan just in case.
What Dongfang Peng said was so convincing that it was impossible to refute it.
Of course, the most important thing is that it was Emperor Qi Heng who originally said this about choosing a husband for the princess in a competition outside the city. Naturally, the majestic king of a country has no reason to regret it.
"Okay, then it's decided." Emperor Qi Heng nodded. Dongfang Peng raised his wine glass with satisfaction.
"That's it, let's do it."
After the matter was settled, the feast ended quickly.
Dongfang Peng stood up and left with a group of envoys. Dongfang Yan also gritted her teeth and glared at Shen Yuyu and Dongfang Qi before following them away.
Since Dongfang Qi decided to be a maid in the Night King's Mansion, she naturally had to stay. She stood up with some embarrassment and walked over to the Night King and Night Queen.
Shen Yuyu was about to get up with the help of Ji Xun. Dongfang Qi hurriedly came over and said, "Princess, would you like a slave to serve you?"
Her words were full of respect and her posture was extremely humble.
However, before she even got close, she was blocked by Qin'er, who was tall and round-waisted.
"No need." Qin'er said coldly, "Except for a few familiar faces who are used to supporting us, the Princess and His Highness the Night King will feel disgusted when they see other women. You should stay away from the Princess and His Highness.'
After hearing this, Dongfang Qi's eyes suddenly turned cold, and her hands froze in the air for a while before taking them back.
How dare a lowly slave treat her like this? Haha~~ She is a majestic princess!
But only if she can bear the anger for a while can she be proud one day in the future, she must endure it, and endure it fiercely!
After Shen Yuyu stood up, he glanced at Dongfang Qi from the corner of his eye, feeling that she was ridiculous and pathetic.
Are you so stupid? You still haven't understood your situation at this time?
It can be said that Dongfang Qi really knows nothing about political affairs. Her mother-in-law is just a palace maid who cannot read or write. Although she is a princess, she is only a princess with a humble status and has never learned to read or read.
Therefore, although his brain is not as stupid as Dongfang Yan's, it is not necessarily much smarter than Dongfang Yan's.
She was no less sinister and cruel than Dongfang Yan. When Shen Yuyu glanced over from the corner of his eye, he saw her tilting her head slightly and staring at Shen Yuyu's belly with sinister eyes.
Yes, what Dongfang Qi was thinking about at the moment was exactly how to remove the child from Shen Yuyu's belly. It would be best to kill two people.
Without the vixen Princess Night to charm His Highness the Night King, His Highness the Night King will wake up, turn his attention to other women, and become interested in other women.
Therefore, only when Princess Ye dies can she have a chance to succeed.
So it’s settled that the first thing you do when you enter the Night King’s Mansion is to find a way to get rid of Princess Night!
At this time, Ji Xun didn't know whether he sensed Dongfang Qi's evil gaze or guessed her vicious thoughts, so he directly confessed to Shadow.
"Except for Ling'er, Qin'er, Aqin and others, all other maids around Princess Ye are not allowed to come within a hundred steps of her, otherwise they will be treated as if they intend to murder Princess Ye."
"Yes." Shadow responded hurriedly, and quickly walked to Dongfang Qi and stopped her, "Did you hear His Highness the Night King's instructions? Back away immediately and stay a hundred steps away from Princess Ye."
Dongfang Qi had a gloomy face, and the pain in her heart was indescribable.
Although she had been humiliated like this when she was in Dali, she still couldn't accept being scolded in such a tone by a slave from another country.
After all, no matter how bad things were in the Dali Palace, the servants still treated her respectfully. How could they dare to speak to her like this?
What's more, the Night King's words were obviously aimed at her. I didn't expect the Night King to protect the Night Princess to such an extent. The Night Princess didn't know what drug she gave His Highness the Night King to treat her like this.
Desperate and determined.
The Night King protects the Night Princess so well, it seems that it may be difficult to achieve his own goal.
But she couldn't give up. After all, she had the first impression. Who gave Princess Night the good luck to meet His Highness the Night King first and capture his heart?
Since he was one step behind Princess Night, he would naturally have to spend more effort to snatch the Night King back from Princess Night.
After pondering for a long time, Dongfang Qi gritted her molar teeth and slowly retreated outside the Nuan Pavilion under the surveillance of the shadow.
After Dongfang Qi left, Ji Xun whispered to Shadow.
"Send ten secret guards to protect Dongfang Qi's safety in secret. Don't let anything happen to Dongfang Qi's life. By the way, send Dongfang Qi back to Yewang's Mansion first, and then arrange her in Xuanchun Pavilion."
Xuanchun Pavilion is the farthest away from Youran Palace where Shen Yue and Ji Xun live, so it is arranged to be out of sight and out of mind.
Of course, the most important thing is that near Fuchun Pavilion is the residence of the palace guards, which can double ensure her safety.
"Yes." Shadow responded and made arrangements.
After making these arrangements, Ji Xun and Shen Yuyu said a few thoughtful words to Emperor Qi Heng, and after sending Emperor Qi Heng back to Changning Hall, they got on the carriage and prepared to leave the palace.
Logically speaking, carriages outside the palace are not allowed to enter the palace, so you can only ride horse-drawn carriages in the palace. However, Shen Yuyu was pregnant with Liujia, and Emperor Qi Heng specially granted permission for the carriages from Prince Ye's Mansion to enter the palace directly.
The other family members in other palaces can only leave the palace on foot.
On the way out of the palace, the ladies couldn't help but gather together and discuss tomorrow's school competition to choose a husband for Princess Dali.
Having committed such a serious madness and having such a special status, no matter who enters his house, it is equivalent to inviting the Bodhisattva back, which is very difficult.
Everyone couldn't help but think about various ways in their hearts, thinking about how to avoid being spotted by the crazy princess and avoid this disaster.
When leaving the palace, Duan Zhengde, Minister of War, caught up with the carriage that Ji Xun and Shen Yuyu were riding in. "Your Highness, the King of the Night, I have something important to discuss with you." As he spoke, he held up his robe and trotted along beside the carriage.
Shen Yuyu was being held comfortably in Ji Xunlan's arms. After hearing Duan Zhengde's voice, she got up from Ji Xun's arms and sat up straight.
"Husband, please go ahead. Don't let Mr. Duan get cold in the snowy weather.'
"Okay." Ji Xun lovingly rubbed his mother's little head and asked casually, "Why do you think Mr. Duan is so eager to find me?"
His wife was so smart that he couldn't help but want to ask about many things.
For example, tonight at the palace banquet, if my wife had not spoken out in time at the critical moment, her words would have shocked Dongfang Peng and averted the crisis of wanting to break up with Dongfang Peng and ignite a war.
Therefore, when Ji Xun was thinking about things, he naturally thought of asking his wife.
Shen Yue looked up at her husband with a pretty face and a smile.
"Husband, do you want to take the exam? I guess it must be related to the school competition tomorrow, hehe."
"Get rid of the guess, it must be." Ji Xun rubbed Shen Yuyu's little head with a loving look on his face, the tenderness in his eyes seemed to overflow, "If you were a man, you would definitely be a pillar of talent! Yu Yu It's nice to sit here, husband, please get out of the car.'
"Okay." Shen Yuyu leaned on the soft back of the chair and nodded, and Ji Xun got out of the car.
"Your Highness." Duan Zhengde bowed deeply as soon as he saw Ji Xun.
Duan Zhengde is thirty-four or five years old, with a medium build, and a pair of eyes that reveal integrity and wisdom. He is not a reckless man who only knows how to fight to the death, but a strategist with both wisdom and courage.
Ji Xun had always been close to and respected the Duan family, and looked at Duan Zhengde with a smile on his lips.
"Master Duan, please don't be too polite. Let's go for a walk?"
"Okay." Duan Zhengdelang responded, and the two of them slowed down and started walking.
"His Royal Highness the Night King, I am afraid that the third princess of Dali can only be placed in the Duan Mansion for the best safety." Duan Zhengde said bluntly, "Even if my Duan family is the nun who cooks, the flower gardener, and the coachman, they all used to be A warrior who has killed the enemy on the battlefield should have no problem keeping the third princess safe.'
He could certainly tell what the scene was tonight when Dali Prince Dongfang Peng performed it.
Dongfang Peng tried to provoke a war and brought two princesses to the Kingdom of Zhou to set up a lead.
Now that one lead has been inserted into the Night King's Mansion, it would be safest for the other lead to be inserted into the Zhenbei Houfu.
Apart from anything else, it can at least ensure the safety of the lead as long as possible and delay the war as long as possible. This is the most beneficial thing for the great Zhou Dynasty.
Ji Xun sighed lightly.
"But I really can't bear to sacrifice the happiness of any young master in the palace."
If it weren't for Dongfang Yan's character being so horribly twisted, and he was afraid of making Yu Yu angry because of the uproar in the palace, he wouldn't be so opposed to letting Dongfang Yan enter the Night Palace.
If Dongfang Yan also follows into the Night King's Mansion, it will save the trouble of other mansions.
Duan Zhengde smiled heartily and said with a relaxed expression: "Weichen's second son is nearly a year old, so it's the right time to talk about getting married."
I have met Duan Zhengde's second son, Duan Jue Jixun. He is handsome, handsome and personable. A nymphomaniac like the Third Princess of Dali will definitely fall in love with him at a glance.
It's a pity that if such a good man marries such a lady, he will definitely have no happiness at all.
Thinking of this, Ji Xundao said: "How can the Third Princess Dali be a good wife? I will try to find a way to see if the Third Princess Dali can be a concubine for the Second Young Master Duan~~"
"Of course, even if you want to be a concubine, you must obtain the second master's consent. You must not force him."
Duan Zhengde hurriedly said, "Your Highness, Night King, don't worry, I, the Duan family man, can do this for the country and the people, so why force him?"
Ji Xun nodded silently after hearing this. The three generations of the Duan family were all throwing their lives and blood on the battlefield. Naturally, they would not hesitate at all for such a trivial matter.
After the matter was settled, Ji Xun quickly caught up with Shen Yuyu's carriage and got into it.
When Shen Yuyu saw him coming up, she hurriedly grabbed his hand and wrapped her cold big hand with her warm palms.
After sitting down, Ji Xunxiao looked at Shen Yuyu, "Does Yuyu have any good ideas to let the third princess of Dali enter Duan's house as a concubine?"
