Chapter 268 Asking for Marriage(2/2)

"Sit." King Xuan first put his arms around her waist, hugged her, and placed her on his throne.

Xue Qingyin was startled for a moment, then relaxed her tight waist, moved her buttocks, and leaned firmly against the throne.

Hey, don't say it yet.

No wonder so many people want to be emperor.

It turns out that it's like sitting in a high position, looking down at the backs of everyone's heads...

"His Royal Highness King Xuan, this..." the ministers spoke out, fearing that King Xuan would snatch their throne away from them.

What does that look like?

King Xuan didn't even look at them, and sat on a throne next to Xue Qingyin.

Fortunately, most of the thrones are made to be extra wide, so it is not difficult to accommodate the two of them.

"From now on, Yinyin will climb countless high platforms with me." King Xuan said.

Xue Qingyin's heart was shaken.

ah?

Including... the one in the capital?

"Read the peace agreement." King Xuan looked at the people below.

There was a lump in their throats, and they were trembling.

The Mon people can remarry at will and have multiple wives. Is it because of their high status? Of course not. It's just because there are few women among the Mon people.

Princess Niboluo was sent to the Mon clan, but she was ignored by the king of the Mon clan. He said that she would be given to the national master, but then she was given to Lin Gu... This can be seen from this.

Didn’t the Liang Dynasty believe that men were superior to women?

Why did King Xuan share the throne with his wife?

The king of the Meng clan stood at the foot of the steps and sighed again.

If Xue Qingyin becomes his queen, he can still make her stand by his side, share her rights, share her land, and share her three thousand slaves...

What a pity.

What a pity! At his current age, he really can’t defeat King Xuan.

The King of the Meng Clan then climbed up the stairs and sat down next to his throne: "Read it."

The ceremony was not as long as Xue Qingyin imagined... I wonder if King Xuan had explained it earlier.

After the ceremony, the two sides exchanged tokens and each kept a copy of the document. King Xuan would lead the remaining army to completely withdraw from the Mon land.

The Mon king watched them ride away again.

He stopped the ministers beside him: "Take the list I gave you in the morning and prepare it according to the list, and separate it from the tribute to be paid to Emperor Liang..."

"This is……"

"This is what I want to dedicate to King Xuan." said the Mon king.

"The things on that list are all rare things..." the minister said in surprise.

"What I want is something rare." The king of the Meng clan did not want to say more.

The minister could only nod his head and do it.

But the king of the Meng clan stopped him: "I want to write a letter to the Emperor of Liang Dynasty."

The minister felt that he understood: "The king wants to write a letter to declare the king's complaint? To accuse him of asking us for rare things? The king wants to sow a relationship between Emperor Liang and King Xuan? Emperor Liang allowed him to ride horses in the palace. It seems to be an honor...

Could it be that Emperor Liang was already wary of this son..."

King of the Mon clan: "I want to write a letter to ask if Princess Xuan has any sisters in her family. I want to marry her as my queen."

Minister: "...ah?"

What appeared on the face of the Mon king was the scheming of an adult male.

He said: "Scheming requires skill."

Let’s see whether King Xuan and his wife were successfully instigated first, or whether King Xuan and Emperor Liang, the father and son, were successful first.

The minister bowed and flattered him: "Wang Gaoming!"

Neither side said anything more.

Can the ministers really not guess what the king is thinking?

not necessarily.

He thought he would never end up like Lin Gu...

The tribute team followed King Xuan's army all the way to Yizhou.

Fang Chengzhong quickly discovered something was wrong, quickly found King Xuan, and said in a deep voice: "Among the Meng people, there is a group of people with a hundred vehicles, which is parked in Yizhou City."

The guard on the side asked: "Do they want to take advantage of us? Do they want us to escort them into Beijing?"

Fang Chengzhong shook his head: "The large army has already gone to the capital, and only a part of it remains."

The guard said: "You can find out if you just ask..."

Fang Chengzhong looked at King Xuan for instructions.

"Well, let's leave this matter to Du Hongxue," King Xuan said.

Du Hongxue was accustomed to handling various chores in the army, so he immediately led a team of soldiers to meet the Mon people.

It was already dark at this time, and the lights suddenly turned on. When the Meng people saw them, they were startled and quickly got up from the temporary marching tent.

"What are you doing? Is His Royal Highness King Xuan going to break the contract?" they said with serious expressions and inwardly disbelief.

"Why are you staying here? Why don't you go to Beijing with the army?" Du Hongxue asked, riding on his horse, lowering his head.

"What we are bringing are all gifts for His Highness King Xuan." They breathed a sigh of relief and said.

"A hundred cars loaded with gifts... are about to catch up with the tributes. It seems you have evil intentions." Du Hongxue saw through it at a glance.

It was nothing more than waiting for the ministers of the court to read a copy of King Xuan and accuse him of embezzling tribute and daring to go beyond the emperor.

These Mon people hesitantly said: "No, I don't have any evil intentions."

Du Hongxue pulled out the knife he carried with him: "Stand guard and report to His Highness for disposal."

The Meng people's expression changed and they blurted out: "It's all for Princess Xuan!"

Du Hongxue frowned and wanted to cut off this man's mouth.

It turns out that the Mon king is still coveting our princess...

"From this point of view, you deserve to die!" Du Hongxue said, about to dismount and kill.

The Meng people were so shocked that they said repeatedly: "You can't take action. The tribute has just been delivered to the capital. Without the will of the Emperor of Liang Dynasty, you have no right to take action!"

Du Hongxue paused and raised his hand.

The knife in his hand whirled and flew out.

The leader of the Meng tribe's face changed drastically. Are you really going to take action? It was too late to hide. He quickly turned his head, and the knife flew out after grazing his mouth, and finally penetrated deeply into the ground.

He raised his hand and touched it.

It's blood.

...Everyone under King Xuan is really a strong general!

I had only seen Fang Chengzhong before, but now even a young man who mostly managed miscellaneous tasks in the army was so determined.

The Meng people lowered their faces and secretly remembered these things in their hearts.

When he raised his head again, the young general had already left on horseback, while the other soldiers were guarding the area with cold expressions.

Just like taking care of livestock.

But the Mon people have always endured hardship... So they looked at each other and said nothing, let alone made trouble.

Du Hongxue quickly returned to King Xuan and told him roughly what had happened. He did not dare to hide it from King Xuan, but when he said the last sentence, he inevitably stuttered.

"...That's it."

After Du Hongxue finished speaking, he didn't even dare to look at King Xuan's face at this moment.

"He's bluffing you." Xue Qingyin's voice sounded first.

"Huh?" Du Hongxue was startled, then raised his head.

"You were right in your guess. They want to deliberately drive a wedge between your Highness and the Emperor." Xue Qingyin thought to herself, I will not take the blame!

Du Hongxue's face turned even more ugly as he said: "I know that these aliens have evil intentions and even used the princess as an excuse... Aren't they instigating not only the emperor, but also His Highness and the princess?"

He thought for a moment and said: "I will force them to take their things back to the Mon tribe!"

"Don't, they are all slandering me like this..." Xue Qingyin said unhappily.

Du Hongxue immediately said: "Then I will kill the leader and make it look like he was killed by a wild beast."
