In the splendid palace, Princess Zhao confessed her love to Qiu Yu in front of everyone. She seemed to have sincere feelings and would not marry unless she was the king. The surroundings were silent. Everyone's eyes were focused on King Ling Qiu Yu to see how he would respond.
In the eyes of the civil and military officials, this is a huge opportunity. After all, it is not easy to win the favor of Princess Zhao. It can further consolidate the status of King Ling, and it is also of vital significance to the diplomatic relations between the two countries. After the marriage, the Yan Kingdom
With more powerful allies, we will definitely be invincible, so why not?
In other words, being able to become the consort is what many people dream of. Moreover, Princess Zhao looks very charming, and she will definitely not be lonely when married to her. Some officials even couldn't help but secretly sigh, why didn't this good thing happen to me?
Well, His Royal Highness Prince Ling has taken over all of it by himself. It’s so annoying to have so many people!
However, in Qiu Yu's view, the character of this Princess of Zhao is really unworthy, she is just a spent flower and a willow, and she is as thick-skinned as a city wall. She has done so many things to do things that are just around the corner, and now she wants to propose marriage, saying that it is not her.
If you don't marry, have you forgotten how you colluded with Prince Chu Zhu Yan to assassinate him? You have forgotten it yourself, but I remember it clearly, so how could you marry you? It is simply a big joke.
It's just that after all, the other party is a noble princess with the powerful Zhao State as the backing. It's not just a personal grudge between each other. Even if Qiu Yu refuses, she has to take her face into consideration and be more tactful to avoid hurting her harmony and trying to make peace.
Why are you so expensive? He clasped his fists and said solemnly: "Thanks to Princess Yujiao's love, you want to marry me. However, I am not very talented and knowledgeable, and I am not worthy of Your Highness in all aspects. So I'm sorry, but I would like to ask Princess to choose another ride."
Son-in-law Long Kuai, I would never dare to climb high."
No matter how subtle he said it, he refused after all. Not only did Zhao Yujiao's face change greatly, but the dozens of attendants behind him also widened their eyes and were very angry. They felt that this boy was too ungrateful. Princess Yujiao wanted to marry but she didn't agree. It was simply
There is no reason for this.
All the civil and military officials in the hall were even more astonished. They did not expect that King Ling would have such an attitude. It would be too arrogant to refuse the princess who came to his door. Moreover, it would definitely affect the relationship between the two countries and even cause hatred. So Qiu Yu has a high position.
Regardless of the safety of the court, he is obviously selfish and fails to put the interests of the country above all else. After all, he is young and only cares about his own ideas, which is disappointing.
The Queen of Yan, Ji Yurong, who was sitting on the throne, glanced at her without any blame, but still with admiration. She quite understood Qiu Yu's decision. A man likes to be grudges. Since he doesn't like it, there is no need to compromise. Besides, this is what she loves.
As a man, she naturally didn't want Qiu Yu to live in depression, no matter what if she offended Zhao Guo, for him, she was willing to take greater risks without any regrets.
A frosty color appeared on Zhao Yujiao's heavily made-up face, which changed very quickly. It was still full of spring just now, but now it is like ice and snow. She frowned and said: "Qiu Yu, after saying so much, you just don't want to marry this princess, right?
Bar?"
Qiu Yu said calmly: "To be honest, I have never thought about getting married. Your Highness, please don't force me. After all, it's not sweet to force yourself, and it's not appropriate for us to be together."
Zhao Yujiao snorted coldly, raised her left arm, and showed off her slender and beautiful jade hands. They were very well maintained, and it would not be an exaggeration to call them as smooth as gel. Especially her jade fingers were as tender as the tips of bamboo shoots, and the nails were painted with various colors.
Dankou is like agate, but the little finger wears a platinum finger cot with exquisite carvings, which makes it look different and a little more luxurious.
The platinum finger cot was tied to the palm with a thin chain, just like a unique decoration. However, Zhao Yujiao stretched out her right hand to untie the chain, took off the finger cot, and exposed short finger stubble. It looked very abrupt, and the whole hand
It's not beautiful anymore and looks like a defective product.
Everyone was surprised. It was completely unexpected. They thought that the finger cot was just for decoration, but they didn't expect that it was to hide the ugly face. Princess Yujiao's little finger was broken. It should have been cut by a sharp knife, leaving only a short finger.
When it is cut off, it is bald and appears light red.
Looking at Zhao Yujiao's deliberately shown left hand, Qiu Yu knew that, recalling the sensational incident, the other party had made a huge mistake, which led him to personally lead an army of hundreds of thousands to invade the Zhao Kingdom, causing Zhao Yujiao to cut off her fingers to apologize.
It can be seen that this woman is very persistent and ruthless in her work.
All I could hear was Zhao Yujiao saying in an eerie voice: "Qiu, do you still remember the time when I cut off my finger to make you withdraw?"
Qiu Yu nodded, "Remember, but no one forced you, you chopped it off yourself..."
Zhao Yujiao said angrily: "Shut up, you still have the nerve to say that when you led your troops to Fan, it was because of this princess that you bullied Ji Yue'er, which made me the target of public criticism. In desperation, I knelt down in front of the city to admit my mistake, and then renounced myself.
I only need to apologize to you to satisfy you and withdraw the army. It can be said that I don’t have this finger because of you.”
Regarding the reason, many civil and military officials did not know, but now they suddenly realized that it was actually related to His Royal Highness Prince Ling. So you can imagine what he did to Princess Zhao in the first place. In the end, he had no choice but to cut off her fingers to atone for her sin. Prince Ling is really powerful!
Qiu Yu was speechless. He cursed in his heart, "You are the one who brought it upon yourself. This is the bitter fruit of your own doing. What does it have to do with me? It depends on me!" If the explanation is too laborious, it cannot be explained clearly in just a few words.
, he simply frowned and said: "So what?"
With just one sentence, his domineering power will be revealed, and many officials will be in awe of him. In fact, it is true. Even though he is young, he is so powerful that he can turn clouds and rain with his hands. No one in the Yan Kingdom can match him!
Zhao Yujiao hummed: "Because of you, this princess lost one finger and became disabled, no longer so perfect, so you must be responsible to the end. Marry me as your wife, which is considered as compensation for me, otherwise I will not let you go."
, the people of Zhao State will not spare you..."
Damn it, you are really cheating on me! Qiu Yu frowned, no longer patient, and said in a deep voice: "Save it, I will never marry you no matter what, and it doesn't matter whether you let me go or not.
Even if I die, I will not marry you, so please come back, princess, and don’t waste your time."
Such decisive words made Zhao Yujiao furious. Her face turned as red as pig liver, and she said hysterically: "Qiu, you are so shameless. How dare you treat me like this? One day, I will let you."
You paid the price with blood..."
Compared to her rage, Qiu Yu remained calm and shrugged, "It doesn't matter. I've already said it. I'd rather not live in this world than marry you and have nightmares every day. So what are you afraid of? Tell me more."
It’s useless, princess, take care of yourself!”
"Ah... you bastard... I can't wait to kill you!" Zhao Yujiao screamed, and her voice echoed in the hall.
At this point, Queen Yan Ji Yurong couldn't stand it anymore and said: "Princess Yujiao, please calm down. Prince Ling is indeed ungrateful. I will definitely punish you severely. You are as beautiful as a fairy, so why bother marrying this ignorant boy?"
, there are countless talents in Shenmang Continent, and they all admire Her Royal Highness, so you don’t have to mind."
