MTL - Spatial Farm Life: Raising My Kid, Abusing Scum, and Keeping Busy With Life-Chapter 339 she decides
Chapter 339 She decides by herself
It was similar to the last banquet, except that there were some unfamiliar faces.
There are frontier people with beards, islanders with brown eyes, and people with the same appearance and skin color as the Ming Dynasty.
They were all wearing their court costumes, sitting there looking around, pointing with their fingers, it seems that they are choosing candidates for marriage.
Very good, I didn’t see foreigners with big noses and blue eyes, nor did I see short Japanese pirates with single eyelids.
This made her feel more comfortable, but when she found that several people were staring at Ling'er with obscene eyes, she immediately became angry.
Fuck him, you look good, it's normal for a gentleman to look good, who is disgusting with this kind of look?
Qiao Mai's spiritual power without making a sound, directly rushed towards the man's eyes without screaming, but the eyes of the men staring at Ling'er, for some reason, became more and more blurred.
No matter how much they knead, they just can't see clearly, as if they are highly myopic.
At this moment, the emperor came with his concubines, and the concubine was high above her. She saw Qiao Mai at a glance, nodded and smiled at her.
Qiao Mai also smiled at her, and the courtiers and envoys present all stood up and saluted.
Today is a banquet to choose a spouse for the young men and women of both parties. They have already had a formal conversation before, so I didn’t talk so much today.
When the emperor came, it was natural to set up a meal, sing and dance.
On such an occasion, performances are unavoidable. The four princesses of the envoy group performed dance and qin, and the four men performed their swordsmanship, stick technique, knife technique and hidden weapon.
The emperor watched quietly from above, talking to the imperial concubine in a low voice from time to time.
A messenger stood up and bowed towards the emperor.
"Your Majesty, why didn't Princess Jiamei, Minister Yuan Haichuan, and his sister Princess Tianshui not show their talents?"
"Are they not within the scope of this marriage?"
"Why?"
The emperor is a little upset, so you don’t even need to ask the fuck, you don’t have ears to ask? Playing stupid on purpose?
"Jia Mei is Hai Chuan's fiancée"
"So that's it, where is Princess Tianshui?"
"I promised King Fu that Princess Tianshui's marriage will be decided by her herself."
"Your Majesty, the second prince of our country fell in love with Princess Tianshui at first sight. Do you still hope that His Majesty will make it happen?"
The emperor looked at Linger, "Princess Tianshui, what do you think?"
Ling'er stood up, straightened her back, "Your Majesty, Tianshui is unwilling,"
"Why?"
"These envoys are impolite and uneducated. The defeated country went to the victorious country to show off their power. Presumably they treated the people as slaves in their own country. I am the princess of the Ming Dynasty, so I naturally despise the behavior of these smugglers. Anyone who loves marriage will marry, anyway, this princess will not marry."
Let her say that, all those girls who wanted to marry the princes of other countries bowed their heads.
The envoy smiled, "Princess, I think you misunderstood. The previous incident was a joke caused by a language barrier, and it never happened again."
"Hmph, then the princess is not willing, and the two countries can be friendly through marriage? You don't want to look at our country? I, Qiao Wanling, the person I marry must like me, and I must treat me like my father treats my mother. You don't do anything. occupy."
The envoy looked at the emperor, "Your Majesty?"
"There is no other way, I am the king of a country, and what I promise will not be changed."
Yuan Jiaqi stood up, "Your Majesty, you are a Mingjun, and you will never do something like a robber. It is a marriage, so you have to be willing. Please give them the opportunity to choose freely. Whether they succeed or not depends on fate. What do you think?"
"Haha, naturally, Buddhism emphasizes a word of predestined relationship, people who are not predestined, even if they get together, they will separate sooner or later"
"Your Majesty" the envoys from the four countries stood up unanimously
"The king is the king, and the minister is the minister. The king makes the minister die and the minister has to die. As the king of a country, can't you even decide the marriage of your ministers?"
"Oh, no, I seldom give marriages. I believe in Buddha, I believe in God, and I believe that twisted melons are not sweet. Although I am the king of Ming Dynasty, I am not the king of the world. I also want to accumulate virtue, and I don't want to be that wicked If you don’t do immoral things, you can’t be the king of a country?”
Damn it, the old emperor, how can he talk like this, but the courtiers really like it.
The envoy was silenced by the emperor, and Lord Zhen stood up at this moment, "A defeated country, what face does it have to come to our country to choose a lover, it should be to dedicate these princesses to our country"
Many ministers co-authored, "That is, for the defeated country, it would be good if you don't let you pay tribute. Why do you still come to our country to pick people?"
A banquet turned into a denunciation, the emperor sat on it and watched with a smile, indulging his courtiers to make a fuss.
The envoy group seemed to have entered a dead end, with their mouths and faces full of shame, and they didn't know what to say.
The emperor saw that he was almost done, so he opened his mouth.
"Okay, the two countries don't have to cut off their troops, it's almost enough. These princesses who came to our country, who do you like?"
The faces of the princesses were quite ugly, and they whispered to people from their own country.
"Your Majesty, the princess of the Great Qin Dynasty, is willing to marry the second son of the King of Chu as a concubine. Please do so!"
Hou Gong's eyes flickered, and he looked at King Chu, "Is the second child engaged?"
"not yet,"
"Okay, that's it."
The face of the king of Chu changed. He looked at the second child, gritted his teeth, and whispered.
"Father is going to wrong you?"
"The son doesn't care, just follow the arrangement of the father"
They all know in their hearts that if they marry a princess from an enemy country, there will only be one end, and they will be isolated, but as members of the royal family, they cannot escape the marriage.
The other three princesses were selected as members of the royal family. This is to enter the imperial family of the Ming Dynasty.
The emperor cursed secretly in his heart, dog is hot, you go dreaming sweet dreams, I won't let you wish, wait for a few years, when I am strong, I will demote all of you princesses into concubines, so that you can't get up. snort.
In fact, he is still afraid of these people. After all, if the four countries join forces, his chances of winning are almost zero.
After the selection of the princess, he will be the prince. There were many daughters of courtiers who were willing to marry as concubines, but after hearing Linger's words, they all backed down.
Not even a girl stood up, and the marriage suddenly became one-sided.
The four envoys had no choice but to propose marriage to the emperor, but they were all rejected. No matter whether they love their daughters or not, as a courtier of the Ming Dynasty, who would want their daughters to marry into a defeated country?
Isn't that just letting others ravage it? But I can't go, how can I look up after losing my old face?
At this time, the second prince of the Great Qin Kingdom stood up, "Your Majesty, if Princess Tianshui is willing to marry this prince, our country is willing to give up the five border cities, do you think?"
The emperor's heart moved when he heard it, and Lord Zhen stood up at this moment, "How can we men live in the future by exchanging women for the city? We want to have us soldiers in the city, and we don't need Princess Tianshui."
"That is, we don't need women in the city, we want the city, and we can fight it ourselves"
"Hmph, that will kill a lot of people"
"Exchanging a woman for a city, how can we men in the Ming Dynasty raise their heads, and we can feel at ease when we exchange our own blood and life for the city."
"That's right, that's right, don't come here, we won't eat"
The emperor, who was originally excited, stopped eating immediately. He secretly looked at Qiao Mai, and saw that she was drinking wine calmly, showing no sign of getting angry.
Now he felt relieved, for some reason, he touched her from the heart.
Because he still can't figure out her details, she is too mysterious. Is it a trick, or is she just picking things up from a distance?
Before he figured it out, he'd better not offend her.
The second prince gritted his teeth and drank it out. There are women in this world that he wants but can't get.
"How about ten cities?"
The emperor's hands trembled a little, "Let's forget it. Compared with the city, my promise is the most important."
The girl that the Great Qin Dynasty could not exchange for ten cities suddenly became the focus, and all the girls stared at Ling'er jealously.
