Recently, two major events occurred in Northern Qi, which shocked both the government and the public.
The first thing was that Emperor Zhan Doudou of the Northern Qi Dynasty finally agreed to the marriage request of the Yuan and Mongolia countries and married the eldest princess to the Khan of the Grassland Wolf.
Half a year ago, the Yuanmeng envoy proposed a marriage request to Zhan Doudou, but the Northern Qi Dynasty could not agree on the same opinion. Even the emperor and the queen mother often quarreled over the marriage, and the matter was delayed again and again.
Until Yuanmeng and Nanqing went to war, Nanqing's 100,000-strong army was defeated in the grassland, and Emperor Qing had to cede land and pay compensation in exchange for peace.
The Northern Qi Dynasty finally realized the power of the Yuan and Meng cavalry, and the emperor Zhan Doudou relented and agreed to marry the princess into the grassland.
The Yuanmeng Kingdom used a war to prove to the world that they were powerful and were no longer the grassland nomads they had been before.
The second major event that happened in the Northern Qi Dynasty was the rumors about the emperor's battle with Doudou.
In recent months, there has been a rumor circulating that Emperor Zhan Doudou was actually a girl, and in order to protect the Zhan family, she had been pretending to be a man and deceiving the world.
Not many people originally believed this rumor, but not long ago Zhan Doudou reached the marriageable age and was supposed to choose the Queen's wedding. However, he delayed it as long as he could for various reasons, causing the rumors to become more and more intense.
Zhan Doudou has never come forward to clarify. Logically speaking, it is too easy to prove the truth of such things. However, Zhan Doudou's attitude made several veterans who originally believed in him begin to waver.
Several veterans from the late emperor's time came to the palace to seek confirmation, but were shocked to find that the young emperor was not in the palace. They heard from the chief internal supervisor that Zhan Doudou and the saint Begonia Duoduo had left the palace in plain clothes and paid a private visit incognito to experience the sufferings of the people.
The ministers had no choice but to go see the Empress Dowager. The Empress Dowager used the excuse of being unwell to send these ministers away, making the matter more complicated and confusing.
At this time, the little emperor Zhan Doudou of the Northern Qi Dynasty, dressed in casual clothes, was shopping with the saint Begonia Duoduo in the busiest market in the capital.
"Your Majesty, when you come out, why don't you bring some more guards with you?" Haitang Duoduo has been observing the surroundings and has no time to think about shopping.
"Who dares to assassinate me at the foot of the capital? No, it's me." Zhan Doudou was shopping and eating Beijing snacks.
"Besides, with you here, I feel very relieved."
Haitang Duoduo frowned and said, "Tian Yuanmeng's wedding party entered the city the other day. I heard that several Thirteen Wings came."
Zhan Doudou raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Are you afraid of Yuanmeng Thirteen Wings?"
Haitang Duoduo said hard: "Of course I'm not afraid, I'm worried about you."
"It's rare to have a day out, why do you think so much?" Zhan Doudou said with a happy smile: "Let's go look at the jewelry."
Zhan Doudou had been bothered by state affairs these days and wanted to have some free time. Haitang Duoduo thought about it and let her do it.
The two of them came to a small stall to buy jewelry. Zhan Doudou caught a glimpse of a hairpin and was about to reach out to get it, but he didn't expect someone to get there first.
There was a man next to Zhan Doudou. He took away the hairpin he was interested in and couldn't help but said: "Brother, I was the first to like this hairpin."??
The man held the hairpin, glanced at Zhan Doudou, and said, "Have you already given me money?"
"Not yet." Zhan Doudou said honestly.
"Then whoever comes first gets this one." The man waved his hand and threw a silver coin to the stall owner.
"You." Zhan Doudou was angry, but he wouldn't argue with others over a hairpin.
"Forget it, let's look at something else!" Haitang Duoduo persuaded in a low voice.
Zhan Doudou calmed down and took a fancy to a pair of pearl earrings, which he thought would suit Haitang Duoduo very well.
Just when she was about to reach out and take off the earrings, the man got there first again.
"What do you mean? Whatever I like, you grab it!" Zhan Doudou finally couldn't help it and yelled at the man.
The man innocently said: "How do I know what you like? Others can't buy what you like. You think you are the emperor!"
Zhan Doudou was furious, rolled up his sleeves and wanted to argue with the man.
In fact, her self-cultivation is not that bad, but she has been troubled too much recently and suppressed for too long, so she needs an outlet.
Haitang Duoduo naturally understood Zhan Doudou, so she didn't stop him.
"You are a grown man, why did you buy so much jewelry?" Zhan Doudou asked the man.
The man chuckled and said, "Why don't you come to buy jewelry too!"
"Me." Zhan Doudou was angry and pointed at Begonia Duoduo: "I bought it for my companion."
"What a coincidence, I also bought it for my companions." The man chuckled and pointed at the three female companions not far away.
Zhan Doudou looked along the man's fingers and immediately saw three stunning beauties, and couldn't help but be stunned.
The three beauties are all stunning in the world, each with their own characteristics. The one on the far left is wearing a light green dress. Although she is thin, she has an aura that makes me pity her.
The one in the middle has a slightly inferior appearance but a better figure. He is dressed in red and is full of heroic spirit, making him unforgettable at first sight.
The woman on the far right is also very beautiful, with particularly outstanding facial features. She is wearing prairie clothes and is full of exotic style.
Usually it is difficult to meet such stunning beauties, but now they are gathered together, immediately attracting a lot of attention on the street.
The three beauties seemed to have a close relationship with the man. When they heard the quarrel, they came over. The one on the far left said to the man:
"Master Wang, these jewelry are of average quality and I don't like them. Why don't you give them to this girl?"
Zhan Doudou was shocked when he heard this, because the other party actually revealed her true identity.
"What girl? I'm a grown man." Zhan Doudou said displeased.
"Wan'er, women dress up as men just to hide their identities. You shouldn't expose them," the girl in the middle whispered.
Zhan Doudou frowned slightly, and for the first time she had doubts about her own dress. She had been pretending to be a man for more than ten years, hiding it from the civil and military officials of the dynasty, but today her identity was discovered one after another.
The three beauties are Lin Waner, Ye Linger and Jamuhe.
That man is naturally Wang Gang.
They followed Yuan Meng's marriage mission to Shangjing. Ye Ling'er wanted to stroll around Shangjing, but unexpectedly ran into Zhan Doudou who was visiting incognito privately.
?Wang Gang was already suspicious of Doudou's identity at this time, mainly because of Begonia Duoduo beside her.
?There are not many ninth-grade masters in the world, and there are even fewer women. There is only Haitang Duoduo in Shangjing City.
?"Young Master Wang, just give your earrings to this girl!" Lin Wan'er didn't want to cause trouble, so she said to Wang Gang.
?"Say it again, I am a man!" Zhan Doudou said angrily.
?"Yes, yes, it's for this young master." Lin Waner said perfunctorily.
?Zhan Doudou’s head is full of black lines, but he can’t have an attack!
?At this moment, Wang Gang suddenly took a step forward and held Zhan Doudou's shoulder with his right hand.
"What are you doing!" Haitang Duoduo was shocked and was just about to attack Wang Gang when a short arrow flew over and passed by Zhan Doudou's scalp.
?If Wang Gang hadn't pulled Zhan Doudou out at the critical moment, she might have had an arrow shot through her head.
?A dozen men in black suddenly poured out of the market, holding military crossbows and shooting at Zhan Doudou, not afraid of hurting innocent people.
"Your Majesty!" Jamuka quickly waved his palms and knocked down the short arrows around him.
"Protect them and don't worry about me." Wang Gang smiled slightly and pushed Zhan Doudou down, dodging three short arrows.
?Haitang Duoduo touched her back with both hands, took out a pair of small axes, guarded Zhan Doudou, and shot down all the incoming arrows.
?"Let's go." Haitang Duoduo felt unhappy. The assassin was able to get the army's crossbow. He was obviously not an ordinary person. This assassination was obviously premeditated.
?Zhan Doudou didn't hesitate, he rolled and ran towards the alley behind.
