Chapter 403: Large-scale Palace Magical Ethics Play
"Hahaha, Mrs. Xiahou has been in Chu for many years. I hid her identity and went to Chu to welcome her back. What do you think is her relationship with the King of Chu?" Yang Xiu was quick to think. He first laughed three times to break the atmosphere, and then started to speak eloquently.
Xia Houjuan:???
Yang Xiu had already talked about the engagement with Xia Houjuan before, and Xia Houjuan... felt a little conflicted in his heart, otherwise he wouldn't have thought of staying in Chu State, but he never found a "reason".
At this time, Yang Xiu also secretly winked at Xia Houjuan, telling her not to talk and just leave it to him.
"Oh, the King of Chu only has one queen, the daughter of Marquis Wen. He has no princess. You, a sour scholar, want to deceive me?" Yang Feng said on his face, "I want to deceive you."
Yang Xiu said without changing his expression: "The King of Chu naturally does not have a princess, but... he will have a heir apparent or a princess." As he spoke, he specifically looked at Xiahou Juan's abdomen.
Yang Feng:???
Is it so exciting? Yang Feng was surprised for a while, but then he reacted: "No! If that's the case, why is she here for your Wei State to take her back?"
"The Queen of Chu still has no descendants." Yang Xiu said half-heartedly.
Although Yang Feng was hopeless, after thinking about it for a while, he understood what Yang Xiu meant.
Following Yang Xiu's hint, I came up with a story about "The noble daughter of Xiahou had an affair with the King of Chu, and she had a secret affair, so she suffered the jealousy of the Queen of Chu. In order to prevent being murdered by the Queen of Chu, Mrs. Xiahou avoided all kinds of deep palace plots."
, contacted the mother clan of the Wei State in order to obtain the proton and leave a backup force, cooperated internally and externally, acted secretly, and took over the large-scale palace magic ethics drama "Mrs. Xiahou".
Yang Xiu looked like he was sitting firmly on the landscape, and there was no hint that he was talking nonsense. Even from the beginning to the end, he was half-hiding his face with his pipa in his arms, unwilling to mention a word more, and his "too lazy to lie to you" manner, which was even more
Make Yang Feng believe in his own judgment!
As a result, Yang Feng suddenly became wary of Xia Houjuan...
Yang Xiu had no choice - he didn't worry about his own life or death. After all, he was also Yang Biao's son. Yang Feng couldn't kill him directly and create a big enemy for himself in the court.
However, once he was sent back to Chang'an, Yang Xiu estimated that his legs would probably be broken and he would never be able to escape again.
and……
If Yang Feng succeeds and Xiahou Juan falls into his hands, even if Yang Xiu finds a way to escape on his own, he will never be able to achieve anything in Wei.
Humiliation was second to none, the key point was that even if the King of Wei could pretend not to care, but... I was already helpless in the Wei State, and I was hated by Xia Houyuan for nothing, so what kind of development could I expect?
Therefore, Yang Xiu not only wanted to protect himself, but also wanted to protect Xia Houjuan!
It's useless to just say that she has a relationship with the King of Chu. With the concept of chastity at this time, we don't pay much attention to this. Who among Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Sun Quan has never married a widow in history?
As long as Xia Houjuan was not Princess Chu in name, Yang Feng would dare to marry her by force, and maybe even...maybe even more enthusiastic.
But if Xiahou Juan has the flesh and blood of King Chu in his belly, Yang Feng would not dare to do anything wrong even if he were killed.
As for Xia Houjuan’s reputation...
Well, Yang Xiu had long felt that something was wrong with Xia Houjuan's attitude, but he didn't care. After all, it was a marriage. He would be very happy to go back to Wei and marry Xia Houjuan, but now... his priority is to protect Xia Houjuan's safety.
!
Yang Xiu's plan was to frighten Yang Feng and then send Xiahou Juan back to Chu State first, and... After such a commotion, no matter how open the atmosphere was, once his previous remarks were spread, I'm afraid that his own Xiahou Juan's
The marriage has to be completed, but it is better than being succeeded by Yang Feng!
Even if Xiahou Juan wants to thank him for saving his life, Cao Cao and Xiahou Yuan will definitely feel sorry for him. Even if they don't say it on the surface, they will make up for it in other ways.
Yang Xiu felt that he was already old anyway, so if he couldn't do it, he would have to wait a few more years, and Cao Cao's little daughter would almost have haircuts...
As a member of an outstanding aristocratic family and a rare smart person, Yang Xiu had a very clear account in his mind.
"The eldest son of the King of Chu...or the princess?" Yang Feng looked at Xia Houjuan with another evil intention.
"Oh, General Yang doesn't want to take Mrs. Xiahou back to Chang'an to serve as a hostage of the Chu Kingdom in the Han Dynasty, right?" Yang Xiu said sarcastically.
"Oh? Mr. Yang, don't you think so?" Yang Feng said in a sarcastic tone, as if you couldn't possibly deceive me.
"The Xiahou family took back their daughter, and then they just had to explain the pros and cons, and they would naturally be able to stabilize the King of Chu. But the Han Dynasty forced the Chu prince's heir to be kidnapped... Oh, General Yang, do you think the King of Chu will let it go? General Yang should know best.
How did Wang Situ die in Chang'an back then?" Yang Xiu said calmly.
Wang Situ pointed out that it was Wang Yun.
The Xiliang army counterattacked Chang'an. When the troops came to the city, Wang Yun was executed to appease the anger of Li, Guo and others.
Yang Xiu just wanted to warn Yang Feng that if Bai Tu really raised troops because of this, his results would not be better than Wang Yun.
When Yang Feng heard this, he did hesitate. He had a hand in forcing the Han Dynasty to kill Wang Yun. He naturally understood the court's approach. If the King of Chu "cleared the emperor" because of this...
"General, are you still attacking Xu Cheng?" the deputy general asked in a low voice.
"Stop... eh? Wait! If you planned it, why did Xu Cheng still only have so few troops? Xia Houyuan actually came alone?" Yang Feng discovered a blind spot.
Yang Xiu's expression did not waver at all, and he said matter-of-factly: "This kind of thing is going to be handled in Xucheng, will it be done with a lot of fanfare?"
When Yang Feng heard what he said, he felt that it made sense, but at the same time, he felt that something was wrong.
Seeing Yang Feng lost in thought, Yang Xiu said nothing, but felt a little nervous.
But at this moment, someone suddenly came to report...
"Why are you panicking? How dare those old, weak, sick and disabled people in Xu Cheng come out?" Yang Feng was interrupted from thinking and looked a little annoyed.
"General, general... it's the Chu army! The Chu State has sent out troops!" the disgraced messenger said in a panic.
Yang Feng's heart suddenly thumped: "What? How many people? Who leads the troops?"
"It's Zhang Xiu... They are all cavalry. Our group was scattered before we could estimate the number of people..." the messenger said with some fear.
"Trash! Did they say for what purpose they sent the troops?" Yang Feng kicked him down and continued to ask.
"That's right...we attacked the exchange mission between Chu and Wei." The messenger said innocently.
Yang Feng felt cold when he heard this, while Xia Houjuan's face felt hot.
Yang Feng had already investigated clearly before and found that there were no people from the Chu State here, only people returning from the Wei State, and he was not pretending to make a sneak attack or frame the Chu State. Now this is a matter between the Fu Han and the Wei State, and everything has come to an end.
What relationship does Xu County have to the Chu State?
Obviously there is only one possibility - everything Yang Xiu said is true!
