Will succeed

Chapter 44

The emperor suppressed his grievances, and said calmly: "Everyone is laughing, the princess's words just now are not unreasonable. I apologize to the princess for the rudeness of the later Tang Dynasty."

The emperors of the later Tang Dynasty were subdued, and Xia Houyue no longer had any excuses to say anything, she just nodded slightly, as if she had listened to the emperor's words, and let the matter go.

Seeing Xia Houyue's appearance like this, everyone knew that she would never pretend to be cold anymore.

"The Holy Majesty is able to condescend to apologize to my sister, and his heart is only broad. Xia Houyu really admires it!"

The emperor smiled and didn't smile, thinking why he didn't speak just now, and now things have come to this point, so Shi Shiran ran out to praise a few words without sincerity, what's the matter!

"Prince Xiahou was joking, why don't we continue talking about marriage?"

"So good."

The two looked at each other and smiled, tacitly erasing what had just happened.

When talking about marriage, Xia Houyue's expression darkened, but soon returned to normal.If it wasn't for Li Xi's sweeping towards Xia Houyue from time to time, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to find it.

As if smelling something, Li Xi showed a mysterious smile.

"Since the Eldest Princess likes Xi'er, I have no reason to refuse. I'm afraid...the princess can't bear the grievance. After all, Xi'er still has a concubine in the palace."

The emperor showed a pondering expression, his face was full of embarrassment, but it was not difficult to hear that he was watching a good show.

Xia Houyu glanced at her younger sister. It was obvious that Xia Houyue was not as firm as before, and her heart had already been shaken.

In order not to mess things up, Xia Houyu had no choice but to answer the emperor before Xia Houyue: "It's just a side concubine, how can I, the eldest princess of Xia, take her seriously. Even if Yue'er likes it, I will not refuse." Reasonable, I only hope that the Holy Majesty can fulfill it, so that the Qin and Jin of the two countries can become good."

Xia Houyue looked at Xia Houyu, and she knew that the matter had come to this point and it was irreversible.

Then, she quietly looked in Li Jue's direction, with hope in her eyes, although she also felt that it was unrealistic.But once a person falls in love, it is difficult to forget the person who moved him.

Similarly, Xia Houyue, who was raised in the deep palace since she was a child, was the first time she went out for this marriage.

Originally, they had discussed it with Prince Shu, but this time the marriage partner is Li Jue.Before they came, they knew about Li Jue's situation, and they also knew that if Li Jue was his partner, the emperor would definitely not agree.

Not only because he has many wives and concubines, but more importantly, if Li Jue and Da Xia get married, then his power will grow bigger and bigger.

Obviously, the emperor is not happy to see that situation.

And on the day they came to Chang'an, they were arranged to the post house by the dismounted officials of the Later Tang Dynasty.It was late at night, and Li Jue paid a surprise visit.

Xia Houyue now really remembers the first time she met Li Jue.

Under the bright moonlight, Li Jue was wearing a silver robe, which complemented the moonlight perfectly.He stood in front of the window, and the moon behind him added a touch of mystery to him.

With just one glance, Xia Houyue decided that her perfect match was Li Jue.

She didn't know what Li Jue and Xia Houyu talked about later, she only knew that after Li Jue left, Xia Houyu ran to her room regardless of etiquette, saying that the original plan had changed.

Later, there was a scene like this.

However, Xia Houyue loves Li Jue!At the very beginning, she was able to suppress the throbbing in her heart, and for Da Xia's purpose, for his purpose, she said against her will that she wanted to marry Prince Shu.

However, under Li Jue's disregard, and when her royal brother was about to negotiate with the emperor, her heart was still shaken after all.

However, her court education since she was a child told her not to act recklessly at this moment.Moreover, this matter was still Li Jue's wish, Xia Houyue didn't want to disappoint Li Jue, so she endured it.

Now she can only hope that after the matter is completed, she will still have a chance to marry Li Jue, even if she is not the main concubine.

For Li Jue, Xia Houyue was reduced to the dust.

Li Xi saw that the situation was not good, so he stopped thinking about what went wrong, which made them change their original plan.If you don't stop it, Xia Houyue will really marry him!

"Father, please let Rong Erchen intervene. This princess...does she really like Erchen?"

Hearing this, Xia Houyue suddenly raised her head, a gleam of light seemed to flash in her eyes, but it quickly disappeared.Immediately, his eyes were covered with anger again: "Prince Shu suspects that this palace disregards its reputation and says that it is a lie to say that it loves you?"

"Hehe, Xiao Wang doesn't mean that either. It's just that marriage is a major event in life, and Xiao Wang just hopes that the princess can think it through, so as not to regret it." Li Xi's eyes were meaningful, like a warning, like a threat.

However, Xia Houyue turned a deaf ear to it. Now she was thinking that Li Jue wanted her to achieve his goals for him. For Li Jue, even if Li Xi threatened her, she would not be afraid.

"Hmph, Prince Shu thinks too much, how can I regret it? Since I have recognized you, then I will not regret it!"

"Okay! The princess is so outspoken, I really admire it! Since the princess is infatuated with Xi'er, then I will give you a marriage, okay?"

The emperor smiled happily. In comparison, he would rather Li Xi gain power, because it would be easier to control after all.

Therefore, it was too late to make a change, so he took the case and settled the matter.

Xia Houyu took a step forward, with a smile on his face, as if he was really excited about this matter: "That's great! I'm relieved that Yue'er can find her own home."

"Haha, I have seen the heart of Prince Xiahou's love for his sister. Then... How about getting married next spring?"

The emperor had a deliberative tone, but his expression was undeniable.

"can."

After getting the answer, the emperor nodded in satisfaction, then turned to Ying Que and said, "Please ask the national teacher to set a good date for this matter!"

In a dilemma, Li Xi clearly sees Li Xi's reluctance.Besides, she herself didn't want Xia Houyue to marry Li Xi, the seat of Concubine Li Xi should be hers!

However, under the watchful eyes of everyone, how could she blatantly defy the emperor's will?Besides, hasn't Li Xi spoken yet?Yingque couldn't make up his mind for a moment.

After thinking about it, Ying Que said, "March [-]rd over there! At that time, the peach blossoms will also bloom, and the mountain flowers will be in full bloom. It's a good day to get married!"

"Hmm... yes! Come here! Let me pass on my will: the eldest princess Xia Houyue is gentle, virtuous, and considerate. Today, I specially marry the eldest princess and Prince Shu Li Xi, and make the eldest princess the official concubine of Prince Shu! Get married on March [-] next year! Before that, the princess should live in the palace first."

The last sentence was addressed to Xia Houyue, and she just nodded.

After the matter was settled, the emperor didn't want to deal with the crowd anymore, so he waved his hand and let the crowd go back.

After leaving Daming Palace, Li Xi stopped Xia Houyu and took him to a secret place.

Seeing that there was no one around, Li Xi couldn't bear his anger any longer: "Xia Houyu, what do you mean! Didn't you agree that the marriage partner is the prince's? Why did you change it to the king? What's your idea?" ?”

Li Xi was so rude, Xia Houyu was not annoyed, he gently pushed away Li Xi's hand holding his collar, his face full of evil charm: "What did Prince Shu say? There are so many questions, which one should the crown prince answer first?" What? Besides, when did we discuss something?"

Li Xi was furious, but he had to lower his voice, for fear of being discovered by others: "Xiahouyu, don't pretend to be an idiot to this king! Tell me, did you reach another agreement with the prince?"

Being able to say this also means that Li Xi is really confused.Anyone would be annoyed by being stuffed with a wife for no reason?Not to mention His Royal Highness the Prince!

"Prince Shu's words are wrong. The Crown Prince and His Highness the Crown Prince of your country are only two-sided. How can we reach an agreement? According to the Crown Prince, the most important thing for Prince Shu at this time is not to question the Crown Prince. It's about getting ready and marrying me, the eldest princess of Xia, into the mansion!"

"You! Hmph! Xia Houyu, listen to me. If you really marry Xia Houyue into Prince Shu's mansion, I assure you, you will regret it!"

Li Xi's eyes widened, his angry look had a special flavor!

After finishing speaking, without giving Xia Houyu a chance to speak again, he slammed his sleeve hard and left angrily.

After Li Xi left, three figures suddenly appeared in the dark.It was none other than Li Jue and the three of them.

Thinking about it, Li Xi was really annoyed this time, because even Li Jue and the others didn't find out, and even told Xia Houyu so many secret things.

"Have you seen enough of Prince Li's excitement?"

Xia Houyu wasn't surprised when he saw the three people coming out, but the moment he saw Fu Li, a different color flashed in his eyes.

"Prince Xiahou's skill in pretending to be stupid is not bad!"

"Oh? Then why don't the crown prince go to Prince Shu to clarify?"

"Prince Xiahou is really humorous."

After a few words were cut off, the skirmish was exchanged, and the seemingly non-existent smell of gunpowder between the two gradually faded away.

Xia Houyu glanced at Fu Li again, and said with a smile: "Just now in Daming Palace, the crown prince heard that this little brother's appearance has been ruined. I don't know...does this crown prince have the honor to see his true face?"

"Prince Xiahou is too rude!"

There was a flash of interest in Xia Houyu's eyes, it was a miracle that Mu Xi would speak for a hidden guard! "Could it be that this little brother has something special that makes the famous Mu Taifu talk to him, which really makes Xia Houyu curious!"

Mu Xi wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Li Jue: "Hehe, it's just a hidden guard, Prince Xiahou don't need to take it to heart."

During this process, Fu Li kept his head down and remained silent.

At first glance, it seemed that Fu Li followed the basic principles of a secret guard, but in fact, Fu Li was out of courtesy.Facing the prince of a country, as a hidden guard, she did not salute.

Standing beside Fu Li, even if Li Jue didn't touch her, he could feel Fu Li's trembling hands at the moment.

This is, I have hated it to the extreme!

If Fu Li hadn't kept his head down, Xia Houyu would have seen the burning fire of hatred in Fu Li's eyes.
