LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 237 Two idle princes of the royal family
Yun Xuan looked at the stunned look on the Jin Prince's face on the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, and couldn't help but tugged on her sleeve, "Madam, you are a married woman, please restrain yourself."
Yuan Chu quickly returned his gaze and smiled awkwardly, "Prince Jin looks so good-looking that I couldn't help it!"
"If our prince finds out, I'm afraid he will be sad!" Yunxuan said with a leisurely smile.
"Ahem!" Yuan Chuyi coughed lightly to cover up his embarrassment, "Everyone in the world loves beauty. Prince Jin is so good-looking. I just looked at him twice. Our prince will not be so stingy. Yes! Besides, although Prince Jin is beautiful, he is still not as heroic and powerful as our prince!" She chuckled and whispered, looking at Jiang Xue, "Jiang Xue, who is this Prince Jin? Why have I never listened to us? The prince mentioned it."
Jiang Xue lowered her voice and said: "King Jin is the uncle of the Holy Emperor and the son of Emperor Taizu and Princess Dongsheng. It is said that Emperor Taizu loved him very much and made him the king just after he turned one year old. However, he When he was just two years old, Emperor Taizu passed away, and then the concubine took him out of the palace and lived in Prince Jin's Mansion."
Jiang Xue paused, and seeing Yuan Chuyi still looking at him and asking him to continue speaking, he continued:
"Because of his beauty, King Jin is surrounded by people wherever he goes. He doesn't like this, so he seldom goes out and does not participate in government affairs. He only likes to recite poems and compete with the talented and famous people at home. Madam bought the yard yesterday The former owner, Mr. Murong, was his guest. The King of Jin did not care about worldly affairs, so most courtiers and princes would not mention him."
At the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty, it became clear that there was such a person who looked like an immortal hidden in the royal family.
"Are there any other princes in the royal family that I haven't met before?" she asked out of curiosity.
Jiang Xue could only continue to lower her voice and said: "There is another Xiaoyao King, whom Madam has never seen before. The first Xiaoyao King was Taizu's younger brother. He conquered the country with Taizu and made great contributions to the founding of the country. After the founding of the country, it is said that in order to avoid Emperor Taizu's unnecessary suspicion of him, he withdrew from the court and became an idle prince. The current Xiaoyao King is the eldest son of the first Xiaoyao King, and he should be in his forties now. , he often goes out to enjoy the mountains and rivers, and is often away from the capital. I have been with our prince for more than ten years, and I have only seen him twice. I have met several other princes and my wife. "
"Madam, just go out and admire beautiful men behind my back, and ask about other men, okay?" A deep voice came from behind.
Yuan An was startled, and when he looked back, he saw Xiao Jing leaning at the door of a private room, looking at him with his arms crossed.
"Your Majesty!"
Everyone is busy greeting each other.
"Your Majesty..." Yuan Chu went over to hold Xiao Jing's arm like a dog, "Then Prince Jin is so good-looking, I couldn't help but take a second look!"
"Just two eyes?" Xiao Jing looked at her with a half-smile.
"Really, really, it's just two eyes!" Yuan Chuyi said with a smile, "Why are you here? You can't come to see some beauty, right?"
"Pi! Where did this beauty come from!" Xiao Jing opened the door of the private room, and when Yuan Chu saw them one by one, they were all men. Several people in the private room stood up hurriedly, "See the princess!"
On the first day of Yuanchu, she was so embarrassed that she hurriedly smiled and saluted them, "Ha... Hello everyone, I'm sorry to disturb you all!" After saying that, he was about to step away, but Xiao Jing took her in his arms and took her into the private room. Introduce everyone present to her. Some of these people were court officials and princes from aristocratic families, but they were all his friends. In the early Yuan Dynasty, he greeted them one by one.
"You guys go on. If you need anything else, let the waiter pay it. Just charge it to my account. I'll accompany my wife home first. Let's make an appointment another day!" Xiao Jing said to them.
Yuanchu was embarrassed, "No, I can go home by myself!" she whispered.
"Let's go!" Xiao Jing waved to his friends and embraced her out of the private room, not forgetting to take her with them.
"It's time to let them laugh at you!" Yuanchu said in a low voice.
"How could that be! Let's go home!" Xiao Jing said nonchalantly, leading her downstairs. Yuan Chuyi was still worried that he would let him lose information in front of his friends, but unexpectedly, the voices of those people could be heard in the private room behind him.
"The prince's reputation as a doting wife is truly worthy of the name!"
"If I have such a good wife and beautiful family, I would love to pamper her, but the one I have is a tigress!"
"That doesn't mean you can't treat your noble concubine well!"
"You all should learn from the prince about how to get along as a husband and wife!"
"..."
Yuan Chuyi couldn't help turning his head to look at Xiao Jing. Xiao Jing looked at her, smiled, and took her downstairs.
"You can sit with them for a while longer!"
Yuan Chuyi couldn't help but said as they got on the carriage.
Xiao Jing hugged her in his arms and smiled, "I'm afraid you'll go somewhere else to look at beautiful men again!"
"..." Yuanchu buried his head in his arms. Who is as unlucky as me, seeing a beautiful man and being caught by her husband?
Xiao Jing laughed muffledly, "Let's see if you dare to look at other men next time!"
"I dare not! Next time I go out, I will cover my eyes!"
Xiao Jing laughed and kissed her red lips, "Did things go smoothly today? You had already left when I arrived at Dali Temple."
"It went well!" Yuan Chuyi said happily, patting his money bag, "One thousand, five hundred taels, which is two hundred and fifty taels more than what I asked them for! King Yu is so kind!"
"Invite him to our house for dinner another day!"
"Okay, I'll cook for you myself!" Yuan Chuyi leaned into his generous arms, "By the way, my grandfather, why was he sent home as an official before?" The old Yuan is a fan of officials, so he shouldn't be He just wants to retire and take some time off.
Xiao Jing thought for a while and said truthfully: "Maybe it's because his way of governing the country is different from that of the late emperor."
More than ten years ago, Beidi invaded and King Lao'an died in battle. The ministers of the DPRK were divided into two groups on the strategy of dealing with the enemy. One group believed that Xiao Jing was still young and was not yet capable of leading troops into battle to kill the enemy, and that there were no generals in the court who could lead the three armies. Facing a powerful enemy, the Xia Yang Dynasty should lower its authority to negotiate peace and cede territory and pay compensation to preserve its strength. The other group believed that the dynasty had just been established, and if they negotiated peace talks to cede territory and pay compensation at this time, it would damage the country's prestige, and they should take the lead in fighting.
At that time, although Xiao Jing was young, he was still full of energy. He stood with the prince and the main fighting faction and chose to lead the battle. He vowed that even if he died in battle, he would defend his sovereignty, demonstrate his national prestige, and never show weakness to Beidi in negotiating peace.
Seeing Xiao Jing's determination, the late emperor agreed to let him take charge of the military talisman and went to the border to lead the troops into battle. Xiao Jing lived up to expectations, and it didn't take long for him to lead the three armies to kill all sides, with good news coming frequently.
The main fighting faction was proud and proud in the court, while the veterans of the surrendering faction were not well received. Yuan Wenjing later disagreed with the late emperor on some political views, and was eventually forced to become an official.
On the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, from Xiao Jing's words, I seemed to see the scene of him as a teenager leading the soldiers to fight bloody battles on the battlefield, fighting hard, and finally winning every victory.
