Chapter 55 mission for relatives
The new moon monarch of Daliang State has the beauty of the world, and can also live the dead and have flesh and bones. This makes the princes and nobles of the countries around Daliang stir. Northern Yan and Western Chongqing took the lead in sending missions to Daliang Capital to ask Daliang Emperor to marry Crescent Monarch.
Prince Feng Xuanxun was frightened when he heard the news. He immediately went to the palace to play to his father. "Father, the monarch has superb medical skills and is the national treasure of the girder. How can he let the outsiders marry him? The child is willing to marry the monarch as the princeling princess, so as to avoid North Yan and West Yu."
The emperor is worried about this matter. The missions of the two countries are seeking to marry the monarch at the same time. Offending either side will cause a war. He really doesn't want the monarch to marry far away. After all, people eat grain and suffer from all kinds of diseases. Who knows which day they need the monarch to save their lives?
However, the prince's idea is simply rotten and inaudible. At this time, he said that he would marry Shangguan Yue as the prince's concubine. Wouldn't he offend both Beiyan and Xiyu at the same time?
He said grumpily, "Can you use your brain when doing things? Is it so easy to fool North Yan and West Chongqing? The prince of the two countries led a mission to Daliang to ask for relatives. Both sides are determined to win. If you jump out to fight with them for the monarch now, wouldn't you openly declare war on the two countries?"
Yu Wang Feng Xuanyue also learned the news and immediately called his staff to discuss the countermeasures. Only then did he rush into the palace to meet his father.
Seeing that the prince was reprimanded by his father, he exulted in his heart, "Father, son and minister have an idea."
The emperor looked at him intently. "Well, if you have any ideas, let's hear them."
Feng Xuan talked more about Kan Kan, "My fair lady, a gentleman is good. The monarch has the appearance of a truly beautiful country, the appearance of closing the moon and shaming flowers, the state of sinking fish and falling geese, and the peerless medical skill. The prince of Beiyan and Xiyu admires it. How can I know that my girder man does not admire the talent and appearance of the monarch?"
The emperor said wearily, "Just say what to do, don't say those useless."
"If North Yan and West Chongqing just come and marry, the father only needs to choose one of the princesses and monarchs of the right age to marry in the past. The other party also won't care who it is, anyway, it is the status of the noble daughter of the Daliang imperial clan. The problem now is that Beiyan and Xiyu are seeking relatives this time with the new moon monarch. No matter which country the monarch marries, it is definitely a great loss to our Daliang country. "
"You mean, don't want the monarch to marry."
"It is not to prevent the monarch from marrying, but to let the monarch not leave the girder without offending the two countries."
"This truth still needs you to tell me, am I not worried about how to politely refuse them?"
"No matter how tactful, I still refuse."
Feng Xuanyue smiled. "The son minister means that the men who admire the monarch are not only the prince of Beiyan and Xiyu. Since foreign men can ask to marry the monarch, why not give us a chance?"
Liang Di came to be interested. "How to give this opportunity?"
Feng Xuanyue had answers. "A letter was issued to the world to set up a challenge arena in Beijing to openly choose a son-in-law for the monarch. Men of the right age all over the world, including the prince of Beiyan and Xiyu, came to the stage to compete, and the winner could win the beauty."
When the emperor's eyes lit up, he turned and said, "If the final winner is not our girder, or the monarch doesn't like it, what should I do?"
"Use time for space, this period of time, we can be in the girder country wide snare talent, in order to also be able to select a batch of available talents for me girder. As for the final winner, the monarch doesn't like this problem, I have a plan. I only need to set up one link. The final winner is assessed by the monarch himself, and whether it is the literary examination or the martial arts examination is decided by the monarch himself. "
The emperor nodded frequently. "This is a good plan. The final decision-making power is in the hands of the monarch. In this way, the situation will not get out of control."
The prince is in a hurry. Over the years, he has been pampered and indulged in debauchery. Where can he compete on stage?
"Father, the monarch chooses a son-in-law, and the son-in-law doesn't need to go to the challenge arena to compete in person. I think it is ok to send a representative."
The emperor thought, "No, if you send representatives to participate in the war, wouldn't it become a world Wulin competition? I think so, let's ask the monarch's own opinion."
Shangguan Yue heard that Beiyan and Prince Xiyu had come to ask for relatives. He was thinking about how to refuse this absurd marriage. He didn't want to receive a message from the eunuchs in the palace, saying that the emperor had summoned him. She did not dare to neglect and hurried into the palace.
Seeing that the prince and the king of Yu were both there, she came forward to see the ceremony one by one.
The emperor laughed: "The monarch must have known about the prince of Beiyan and Xiyu coming to ask for relatives."
Shangguan Yue bent down and said, "I heard a little."
"If the monarch has any thoughts, let's hear them."
The emperor actually asked for his own opinion. Shangguan Yue knew after a little thought that the emperor had encountered a difficult problem. She said carefully,
"North Yan and West Chongqing are close neighbors of Daliang and cannot be easily offended. Beidi is waiting for Daliang and the border friction is constant. Daliang must not resume fighting anywhere in the north or west. Therefore, no matter which prince the emperor promises, it is not a good policy."
The emperor leaned forward pleasantly surprised. "The monarch still knows this? Then tell me what good measures can be taken to resolve this crisis without offending anyone."
Shangguan Yue had already figured out a plan along the way. At this time, he said unhurriedly, "Since whoever we choose will offend people, we might as well kick the ball to them and let them decide who can be my son-in-law. However, only two candidates seem to be a little few, so we might as well expand the scope of choosing a husband."
"Great minds think alike!" The emperor looked at her admiringly. "The king of Yu proposed to set up a challenge arena to recruit relatives, so that all men from all over the world could come to the capital to compete. The winner would marry the monarch, which is exactly the same as what you said just now."
This is really called a contest to get married. I didn't expect the king of Yu to think the same way.
Shangguan Yue smiled, "Since everyone thought of all the way, how to operate its own Ministry of Rites officials. Your Majesty, I have two requirements."
The emperor hurriedly said, "What requirements, but it doesn't hurt to say."
"First, the contestant must be the person seeking relatives. Second, I don't care about the literary test, and the emperor judges it. However, the winner of the martial arts test must compete with me personally, and I will marry the person who can defeat me."
Shangguan Yue has already thought clearly that if King Feng Xuanrui of Jin is interested in her, he will return to Beijing to fight against all the leaders and marry her. If the fallen flowers are intentional and the running water is ruthless, this page will be turned over. If the final winner doesn't like her, she has her own way to make the other party retreat.
Prince Feng Xuanxun was stunned. He was used to being pampered since childhood, not to mention the princes of Beiyan and Xiyu who can fight well. He is no match for ordinary warriors. Shangguan Yue's condition easily excluded him from the list of candidates.
He didn't give up, but also wanted to make a final effort. "Sister Yue, no one can predict the final result. If you agree to be my prince, Beiyan and Prince Xiyu, I will find a way to solve it."
"How to solve it, tell TaBaHong and YuWentai, you go back, monarch I want to marry?" Yu Wang immediately retorted.
"If the prince can let the two princes obediently return home, how can the father be so worried? It is unreasonable for the prince to put the country in danger for his own self-interest. If the prince intends to marry the monarch, he may as well try his hand in the arena. As long as you have the ability to defeat the pack, I believe no one will have any objection."
"You..., I am the prince, how can you be so rude to me?"
Feng Xuanxun's face was flushed with swelling. He lost several confrontations with the King of Yu, but his father let it go, causing the King of Yu to become more and more rampant in front of him.
The emperor made the final decision, "Don't quarrel, according to the meaning of the monarch. A letter was issued to the world to choose a son-in-law for the monarch."
