Chapter nine hundred and fifty first identity exposure
Emperor Chu only used this as a threat to force Tang Ning to submit, but he never thought that he would actually marry his daughter to the Western Regions.
However, what surprised him was that the other party refused to accept the offer. His attitude was so firm, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.
Li Tianlan walked in from outside the palace and broke the deadlock between the two. She looked up at Emperor Chu and said, "Father, I am willing to accept Xiaowan's marriage proposal."
Tangning was secretly happy that she finally stood on her side.
However, there was a sad look on his face, and he said sadly and lostly: "Lan Lan..."
Emperor Chu's expression also changed. His purpose was just to make Tang Ning treat her better in the rest of her life, not to make her make a decision that she would regret for the rest of her life.
Rather than letting her spend the rest of her life in regret and never being happy, it would be better to take advantage of that boy.
He glanced at Tang Ning, his eyes full of deep meaning. Tang Ning understood what he meant, but she quickly looked away and did not persuade Li Tianlan as he wanted.
Emperor Chu was very unhappy and could only speak again: "This matter is of great importance and is related to the relationship between the three countries. Please think about it carefully."
Li Tianlan seemed to be fighting with Tang Ning, and said firmly: "No, I have already decided."
"Let's not talk about this matter for now..." Emperor Chu knew that she was angry, so he changed the subject and said: "You should go to your mother and queen first. She even said she missed you this morning..."
After Li Tianlan left the hall, he breathed a sigh of relief. When he looked at Tangning, he regained his composure and said, "Come with me for a walk..."
Emperor Chu changed into casual clothes and no longer had that overbearing aura. At most, he just looked like a somewhat majestic middle-aged man.
Tangning followed him, one step behind, and followed him to a teahouse somewhere.
After Emperor Chu sat down, he ordered a pot of tea, looked at Tang Ning, and asked casually: "How does it feel to be the prime minister?"
When he no longer felt that the person in front of him was a thief who had stolen his daughter away from him, and simply looked at it from the perspective of an outsider, he had to admit that the radiance in him was greater than that of the accomplished veterans in the court.
Be dazzling.
"I forgot." Tangning picked up the tea cup and moistened her lips, and said, "I haven't been back to Beijing for a long time."
Emperor Chu said: "Zhao Zheng is very indulgent towards you."
Tang Ning said: "It's okay."
Emperor Chu paused for a moment before continuing, "But I am not Zhao Zheng. I only have one daughter. Looking at her appearance in the past few years, I wish I could send someone to capture you and punish you in all kinds of ways."
Use them all again..."
"But I can't do that." Emperor Chu glanced at him with a sharp look and said, "That will make Lanlan sad. I don't want her to be sad, and I don't want you to make her sad."
"You have already made her sad." Emperor Chu put down the teacup heavily and said, "If not, how could she agree to Xiaowan's marriage proposal?"
Emperor Chu was not fooled just now. Tang Ning originally planned to tell the truth, but after hearing what he just said, things seemed to be turning around, so she wisely kept silent.
Emperor Chu looked at him for a long time, then picked up the tea cup and spoke again: "I don't want to pursue the past matters anymore, but Lan Lan, I can't watch her go to the Western Regions. You have to persuade her to change her mind.
, I don’t care what you do after this..."
Unexpectedly, happiness would come so suddenly. Tangning immediately nodded: "Don't worry, I will give her some good advice."
Emperor Chu's expression softened, he put down his tea cup, got up and left the teahouse.
Tangning followed him. At a certain moment, Emperor Chu suddenly spoke: "Xiaowan came suddenly this time, and her intention to form an alliance with the Chu State was obvious. The reason behind it must not be that simple. Their purpose is most likely
Chen State, if the Western Regions and Chu State join forces, Chen State will be destroyed within a year. When you return to the country this time, you must be extra careful with the Western Regions."
It was not surprising that Emperor Chu thought of this. The relationship between Xiaowan and Chen Guo was so tense. At this moment, he wanted to marry Chen Guo's ally Chu State. This purpose was too obvious, even for someone without any political sense.
They can all figure it out.
Only Tang Ning and a few others knew that the purpose of Xiao Wan's mission to the Chu State was actually very simple, just to seek marriage on the surface.
But except for Tang Ning and Mr. Xu, I'm afraid no one would believe it.
Tangning did not explain to him, but nodded: "I understand..."
Seeing that his words did not attract enough attention, Emperor Chu frowned and said again: "The king of Xiaowan is a powerful man with great talents and great strategy. His son must not be mediocre. Xiaowan has been coveting Chen Guo.
They have unified the Western Regions for a long time, and their next target must be Chen State, so don’t be careless."
Tangning's expression became solemn, indicating that she had learned the lesson, and then added: "Maybe the new leader of Xiaowan Kingdom is a good and peace-loving man who is unwilling to start a war..."
Emperor Chu snorted coldly and said, "I don't know if he is a good person, but he must be a pervert!"
Tang Ning lost her footing and almost fell down. After regaining her balance, she stopped asking for trouble.
It doesn't matter if the father-in-law has figured it out, he doesn't need to reveal his identity. It would be best if he can take Lanlan away quietly, which can also avoid a lot of unnecessary trouble.
However, many things in this world just don’t go as expected.
Tang Ning and Chu Huang were walking on the street. They glanced at each other inadvertently and saw two people approaching from a distance.
Although Tang Ning was not familiar with these two people, she had met them several times in the court. They were not in the Western Regions but appeared here. They should be envoys brought here by Mr. Xu.
Tang Ning was two steps behind Emperor Chu, gesturing to them from a distance to tell them not to come over. However, when the two of them saw him, they didn't know whether they might have misunderstood him or something. Their expressions clearly straightened, and then they lowered their heads.
, walked over quickly.
Emperor Chu also noticed the two people in front of him. The guards around him were about to make a move. Emperor Chu recognized that these two people were Xiaowan's envoys and waved his hand to stop the guards around him.
However, this was on the street, and he didn't want to reveal his identity, so he made a gesture to the two of them, telling them to keep quiet.
However, the two of them didn't look at him at all. They walked past him, bowed to Tangning, and said, "I see you, the lord of the country."
Tang Ning had already felt the change in Emperor Chu's expression. She looked at the two of them with a look of astonishment on her face and said, "What king, you got the wrong person..."
"country……"
One of the envoys had a look of confusion on his face, and just as he was about to speak, another man tugged on his sleeve, an apologetic look appeared on his face, and said: "I'm sorry, we got the wrong person, please...
…,No, please don’t be offended…”
Then, he quickly turned around, saluted Emperor Chu, and said: "I have met Your Majesty. I just saw this young man who looks very similar to the Lord of the Kingdom. I was a little rude for a moment. Please forgive me..."
Another person also said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, please forgive me..."
Tangning looked at Emperor Chu and said with a smile, "They got the wrong person."
Emperor Chu looked at him expressionlessly and said, "How long do you plan to pretend?"
