After the marriage, the cousin was spoiled by the whole family of the Marquis’s Mansion
Chapter 235: Palace Fighting? I Don’t Care!
Chapter 235: Palace Fighting? I Don’t Care!
In the autumn of the sixth year of Yuanzhen, Rong Lingkuan’s daughter was born. Ji Yunzhang finally won a great victory after six years of fighting, and the Western Jin Dynasty was officially incorporated into the territory of Dasheng!
At the same time, tribute from the defeated Western Jin Dynasty also returned to the court with Your Majesty’s army.
There is an old acquaintance here.
“Your humble servant Ajina pays respect to Your Majesty.”
Rong Peilan looked leisurely at Princess Ajina of the Western Jin Dynasty who was dressed in exotic clothes.
“Should I call you Liuyan?”
Ajina looked up. She didn’t expect that after more than ten years, she could still be recognized at a glance.
She took off her veil and looked directly at this old acquaintance whom she hadn’t seen for more than ten years.
“You can call me whatever you want, Madam.”
Rong Peilan looked at her slightly provocative look and just found it funny.
After being immersed in the court for several years, she is no longer the smooth-talking young lady in the marquis’s mansion.
The corners of her lips curled up into a faint smile, but her words were straightforward, “Princess, you are already very familiar with Yanjing. Are you here this time as an envoy of surrender or to pay tribute?”
Ajina looked a little embarrassed.
The Western Jin Dynasty was a defeated country, and the first person her brother pushed forward was her.
The reason is that she has been with Ji Yunzhang for five years.
But the person in front of him is no longer the young lady from before.
How could someone who could rule a country for six whole years be a weak person?
Ajina met her gaze and said, “Whatever status your majesty is willing to give me, that’s what I will be given.”
The female official beside Rong Peilan frowned and said sternly, “How dare you! A little female envoy from a prisoner of war country is so rude to the queen!”
Ajina pursed her lips and lowered her head, “Your Highness has no intention.”
Rong Peilan leaned back slightly and said, “I have accepted the gift. You may leave now.”
Ajina raised her head and let her go?
It was obvious what her brother meant by asking her to come along as tribute, but he actually let her go?
Ajina looked at her and suddenly smiled, then slowly stood up, “Your Majesty is afraid.”
Female official: “The Queen hasn’t asked you to get up yet…”
Rong Peilan raised her hand to interrupt the female official and looked at Ajina with interest.
It seems that this princess in her thirties is much more confident than she was a decade ago.
Ajina, “Your Majesty, I never thought you would learn to keep calm.”
“When I first met you at the Marquis’ Mansion, I thought you were very ordinary, no different from the ladies from wealthy families in Beijing.”
“Not even as lively and interesting as your cousin Miss Xie.”
The palace maids and eunuchs in the hall didn’t dare to breathe.
The Queen seems to be the easiest person to talk to, but she can make you suffer inadvertently.
Now it is Dasheng, not Qianqi.
Does this princess of the Western Jin Dynasty still think that she is still the same as before, treating Qi as a guest of honor?
The country has been destroyed, can’t you see the reality clearly?
Ajina seemed to think of the past again, and gritted her teeth unwillingly, “But I found that you have a skill that those noble ladies in Yanjing don’t have.”
Rong Peilan raised her eyebrows, “Oh? What other abilities do I have that I don’t know about?”
Agina, “Capture the hearts of people.”
“You’ve only been married for two days, and you’ve already won the hearts of the prince and his wife.”
“I didn’t speak a word to my wife for two whole months after I entered the mansion!”
Rong Peilan supported his forehead with his right hand, “Princess Ajina doesn’t seem to understand…”
Ajina looked at her in confusion.
“I married into the mansion as the master, and you were sold into the mansion as a slave.”
“Just like now—”
Her voice suddenly dropped. “I told you to speak, and you spoke. I am tired of listening, and you will lose your head now.”
Ajina was stunned for a moment, then she chuckled twice, “Your Majesty, does what I said hit the nail on the head?”
“Your past is only your past. Do you need to kill all potential opponents now to maintain your position in His Majesty’s heart?”
Rong Peilan stood up with a look of disappointment on her face. “It turns out that after not seeing Princess Ajina for more than ten years, she really hasn’t changed at all.”
“I thought the princess would have something to say.”
“It was a foolish move for your brother to send you here as an envoy.” “Harem fighting? I don’t care. I think highly of the princess.”
As soon as Rong Peilan walked out of the hall, Ji Yunzhang left the court and went straight to Fengyi Hall.
The two met face to face.
Ji Yunzhang saw Ajina in the hall at a glance. He didn’t even bother to look at her and went straight to Rong Peilan.
“My dear, your husband has taken out all the wealth of the Western Jin Dynasty!”
Rong Peilan glanced at him with a half-smile, “Very good, Your Majesty, please accept it yourself.”
After saying that, he left without looking back.
Ji Yunzhang was completely confused. What was going on? When had he offended her?
Eunuch Qian saw the clue at a glance, “Your Majesty, where should the Princess of Xijin go?”
“Where?” Ji Yunzhang snorted coldly, “Send it back the way it came.”
how come?
Of course he came in a prison van.
“His Majesty.”
Ajina hurriedly called him, “I am still willing to be Liuyan.”
Ji Yunzhang paused, turned around and glanced at her indifferently, “If you were Liu Yan, you would have gone to see the King of Hell long ago.”
“Why do you think you’re still alive?”
“Because as a princess of a prisoner-of-war nation, you are a commodity to be sold at a price.”
“It’s just that your product is worthless.”
Ajina looked at Ji Yunzhang following Rong Peilan away, and her heart just felt a little numb.
That’s right, she was just a maid in the marquis’s mansion before.
Her identity was exposed, and she was just a pawn used by them to stir up trouble.
She shouldn’t have asked for anything.
Ji Yunzhang is His Majesty, not the crown prince as before.
The previous prince was willing to give her a place to live, but the current emperor would not.
Maybe I should have given up fifteen years ago.
Ji Yunzhang quickly caught up with Rong Peilan and said, “Madam, I didn’t bring Ajina back with me. She was an envoy who came here in a prisoner carriage.”
Rong Peilan didn’t look at him. “Your Majesty, what are you feeling guilty about?”
Ji Yunzhang was stunned, “Me? Why should I feel guilty?!”
He is not very confident and he has been having some inexplicable dreams recently.
His wife in the dream turned out to be Xie Shuning? !
And also accepted the smoke? !
Not only did his family get destroyed, but he also ended up going to the fire-snatching team to pour water?!
What a mess!!
If the people around him hadn’t changed when he woke up, this nightmare would have been scary enough to be real.
He dared not tell his wife about these dreams, for fear that one would dream about what one thought about during the day.
Then he was driven out of Fengyi Palace.
The queen who was walking in front suddenly turned around.
She glanced at the middle-aged emperor and said, “Your Majesty, I have been having dreams lately.”
“W-What dream…”
He had a bad feeling…
Rong Peilan approached him and said, “I dreamed that you married my cousin.”
Ji Yunzhang, “…”
“And I am married to Kang Jintang.”
Ji Yunzhang, “???!!”
