Beiyue rarely entered the palace a few times a year, let alone asked for an audience. This was probably the first time she asked to see the emperor when Princess Huiwen passed away.
After the emperor was startled, he immediately asked Princess Beiyue to come in.
"Princess, the Emperor is worried about the affairs of Dongli Kingdom. Please go in and try to persuade her. If Princess Yingye, a caring daughter of Your Majesty, marries far away from Dongli Kingdom, it will be difficult to meet her in the future."
The old eunuch who came out to spread the message knew that the emperor loved Princess Beiyue, probably even more than Princess Yingye. She was the daughter of Princess Huiwen, and the emperor would listen to her words.
It's easy for people to miss the past when they get old, especially the emperor. When he gets old in the future, he still hopes that Princess Yingye will be able to make her happy.
Wearing a lake-green skirt, the dignified and elegant girl raised her head, slightly curved her clear eyes, and showed a smart smile to the old eunuch.
"Don't worry, father-in-law, I know what to say." The girl slowly walked into the hall. When her back was turned to the old eunuch, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a cold smile without warmth.
Of course she knew how to say it, but not from Princess Beiyue's point of view, but from Honglian's point of view.
When I walked into the main hall and was about to salute, I was supported by the emperor who was striding over.
"Bei Yue doesn't need to be polite." The emperor helped her up and looked at her closely. He felt that every bit of her outline was inherited from Princess Huiwen, and he felt even more pleased.
This was also the first time for Honglian to be so close to the emperor of Nanyi Kingdom. I heard that he was a wise king. At least during his reign, Nanyi Kingdom was in peace and prosperity, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment.
However, when she looked at him now, she didn't feel that he was as shrewd and majestic as she had thought before. The emperor's face looked a little tired, which seemed to be caused by a long period of poor sleep.
Feeling slightly happy, Honglian said: "Your Majesty, I heard that the envoy from Dongli Kingdom wants to ask the Emperor to marry Princess Yingye?"
The emperor had a headache when he mentioned this. He waved his hands and said: "The people of Dongli Kingdom are so shameless! How can they be worthy of Yingye? I am thinking about how to refuse. Beiyue, do you have any ideas?"
The emperor had a headache over this matter. Although it related to the interests of both countries, it was still a family matter. Therefore, the emperor did not plan to ask the ministers for their opinions in the court. He only wanted to hear the opinions of the queen mother and the queen. However, after thinking about it, he knew that the queen would definitely not agree.
It’s hard to tell the Queen Mother for now, so let’s first ask Bei Yue for her opinion.
Honglian lowered her head and said: "This is a big deal, Beiyue doesn't dare to say anything casually."
"You are not an outsider. You don't have to worry about it. Just say whatever you want." The emperor patted her hand and asked her to sit down.
Hong Lian's eyes flashed, and she said: "Then Bei Yue dares to say a few words. I think the emperor should understand that at this moment, the four countries in the world stand side by side, and among them, the Beiyao Kingdom is the strongest, Dongli Kingdom and Nanyi Kingdom
Not long ago, Beiyao Kingdom just married Dongli Kingdom. If the two countries are really consistent, then the world will tilt towards them in the future. The alliance between South Yi Kingdom and Xirong Kingdom, which is the weakest country, may also...
.”
After listening to her words, the emperor's face gradually became serious, and he nodded slightly, seemingly thinking seriously.
Honglian continued: "Fortunately, the marriage between Beiyao Kingdom and Dongli Kingdom failed. On the surface, these two countries are an alliance of marriage, but in fact Wei Wuchen deliberately tried to win over other countries. Your Majesty, if Dongli Kingdom wins over
The Xirong Kingdom, the alliance between the two countries, can compete with the Northern Yao Kingdom in terms of national strength, and by then, the Southern Wing Kingdom will be reduced to the bottom of the pack."
