Chapter 18 I won the argument, but I couldn’t be happy
This may be the first time that Zuo Lingquan looked at Jiang Yi's appearance and figure with the same eyes as a woman.

Jiang Yi was originally very resistant to this kind of look, especially from Zuo Lingquan, but when it comes to this matter, how can she push back her right to speak after finally regaining some voice.
Jiang Yi did not hide away, but deliberately sat up straighter, spread her arms, and showed off her proud figure:
"As the eldest princess, I don't know how many men in the world want to be my consort, but I don't care. Today at Qiyuntai, I choose you in front of the princes and noble sons of the whole dynasty. I have given you and Zuo enough My family’s face, do you still think this is a plot against you? Is it necessary for me to plot against you for my life’s important events?”
Jiang Yi said this confidently and without any guilt. She completely forgot that she had chosen Zuo Lingquan in the first place just to make Zuo Lingquan round and flat.
Zuo Lingquan couldn't refute this - he didn't want to be the consort, but Jiang Yi chose him as the consort, which was definitely not malicious to him or even to the Zuo family, and it was his Zuo family who had the upper hand.
Thinking of this, Zuo Lingquan was also a little speechless. He hesitated and then said:
"Then the princess chose me as her consort because she likes me?"
like? Jiang Yi didn't know how to proceed. In order to cover up her revenge, she blinked and said:
"This has nothing to do with whether you like it or not. When you ask for a consort, you have to choose the most outstanding one. You are the best among two hundred people. I can only choose you. I don't want to choose you. Do you understand?"
Zuo Lingquan was a little embarrassed by the praise, and his attitude softened a little, but he was still not satisfied:
"Well... that night, I told the princess truthfully that I wanted to go to Qihuang Valley to learn from a teacher. Since the princess didn't like me and knew my intentions, why did she choose me?"
Jiang Yi had the upper hand, so she naturally did not give Zuo Lingquan a chance to backhand, and stared:
"Didn't I let you go to Qihuang Valley?"
"I went, but now I'm the consort..."
"If you become a consort, you can't go to Qihuang Valley? Are the two things involved? Does this palace have the final say in the Great Dan Dynasty, or does Qihuang Valley have the final say?"
A series of questions left Zuo Lingquan speechless.
Zuo Lingquan's eyes changed a bit, and he felt strange - in that case, there seems to be no harm in being a consort, and he also prostituted a beautiful fiancée for nothing...
He thought for a while, raised his hand and saluted:
"In the Great Dan Dynasty, Her Highness the Princess has the final say. I was just presumptuous, so please forgive me."
Jiang Yi stared, feeling relieved when she finally won the argument...but she definitely didn't feel any sense of accomplishment!
Jiang Yi took a breath and calmed down, then raised her hand to help:
"As long as you know, no courtesy."
After that, the car became quiet.
It was a bit scary to be quiet.
Zuo Lingquan and Jiang Yi, holding teacups in their hands, sat on either side of the softly carved carvings, with their heads facing each other, their eyes a little dazed.
Zuo Lingquan was confused. He didn't understand what the eldest princess was planning.
He beat up the eldest princess in Linhefang. Not only did the eldest princess ignore the past grievances, she also sent him to Qihuang Valley. She promised him her life and didn't mind if he continued to Qihuang Valley.
How did the eldest princess do this thing of feeding the enemy with her own body and losing her own troops? Shake m? Sure enough, the first image of being big-breasted and brainless is correct...
Jiang Yi couldn't understand the current situation. This morning she was at odds with Zuo Lingquan and wanted to get her back when it came to choosing a consort, but she hated it and found that Zuo Lingquan was the most suitable.
Whatever suits him is appropriate. Recruiting Zuo Lingquan as his consort will allow him to take revenge first and then talk about other things.
But after a quarrel, they discovered that Zuo Lingquan was justified and that he was the one who was wrong.
If the fault is yours, then you are wrong. When we get along with each other in the future, let alone revenge, Zuo Lingquan will have to deal with it!
How could she, the majestic princess, be suppressed by Zuo Lingquan?
But she couldn't defeat Zuo Lingquan. She finally found her way back, and it was only because of her identity that she was able to get it back. No matter how much she thought about it, she was going to lose...
After Jiang Yi was silent for a long time, she felt a little regretful. But the prince-in-law had already been decided, and the clan was pressing too hard. She had to choose one today. Even if she kicked Zuo Lingquan away, she would still have to choose a new prince-son-in-law among the candidates today.
If we put aside personal grudges and just choose a suitable consort, Jiang Yi has no choice.
Zuo Lingquan's family was clean, his appearance was handsome, his character was upright, and his martial arts skills were better than hers. She left Zuo Lingquan alone and went to pick a stranger who didn't know her background or character, and might stab her in the back in the future. She wasn't kidding about her own fate.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yi's mood also calmed down. Anyway, the prince-in-law has been decided, and she can't give in to Zuo Lingquan. She can do whatever she wants with her other loves.
After Jiang Yi sorted out her thoughts, her expression returned to normal, and she took on a bit of the air of a superior. She put down her tea cup and leaned against the couch:
"Zuo Lingquan, I will forget all past grudges and put them aside. From now on, as long as you are down-to-earth and pragmatic, I will not treat you badly."
These words are announcing who will be on top in the future.
Zuo Lingquan couldn't reject such a big Taoist companion. As long as he could continue to practice, he didn't mind it:
"Princess, just be sensible. We have to go to Qihuang Valley tomorrow, so I won't disturb the princess. I'll take my leave."
Jiang Yi suffered a lot of stimulation today, and wanted Zuo Lingquan to disappear quickly, but after thinking about it, she raised her hand to stop Zuo Lingquan who was getting up:
"Wait, um... I have something that needs your attention."
Zuo Lingquan paused, turned around and said, "Eldest Princess, just tell me."
Jiang Yi put away her condescending expression, thought for a while, and then said seriously:
"In recent years, ferocious beasts have appeared frequently around the capital, and the number has increased year by year, causing panic among the people. The imperial study has almost been filled up with all the excuses to hold the palace accountable...
...For these things, Qihuang Valley should have traced the source of the blockage, but I communicated several times, and Qihuang Valley always agreed. Afterwards, it was better to make a fuss about the beast or to make a fuss. That's all. Nowadays, even the Zhangang knives made for the imperial court are damaged and useless. I suspect that Qihuang Valley used the incense money given by the imperial court in other places. "
Zuo Lingquan didn't know the details, so he followed the words and asked:
"Could it be that the people inside Qihuang Valley are greedy themselves?"
"I have stayed in Qihuang Valley for nearly ten years, and I know the character of several senior uncles, so I would not do such a thing. There are only two possibilities for this situation to occur - one is that our dynasty's national preceptor Yue Pingyang. The national master is the head of Qihuang Valley and has not shown up for two years. Qihuang Valley is said to be in seclusion for a long time. I suspect that there is something wrong with the national master's cultivation, which has damaged his body and requires a lot of energy. Bai Yuzhu took care of his injuries, which led to Qihuanggu being unable to make ends meet and making many mistakes. "
White jade baht is the currency used by practitioners. Zuo Lingquan heard about it and thought about it:
"The National Preceptor is a high-ranking official in our court. If this matter is true and the enemy country knows about it..."
"There is no need to wait for the enemy country."
Jiang Yi sighed softly and pointed to the north:
"There is also Fuji Mountain in Beiya County, where King Shilie is enshrined. In the past hundred years, he has wanted to take the place of Qihuang Valley. However, due to the power of the national master, he did not dare to move arbitrarily. Now that there is a beast problem outside, he went there. There were a few letters asking for a tassel. It would have been fine in the past, when my father and emperor were here, and it would be just a matter of a word to change the imperial preceptor. But now that the Holy Master is only twelve years old, I am regent as a woman, which has already made the clan quite famous. Wei Ci, at this time, we are driving Qihuang Valley away and moving Fuji Mountain, where King Lie is enshrined, into the capital. If King Lie comes with us, who will Qihuang Valley help? "
Zuo Lingquan frowned and felt the seriousness of the situation. He thought for a moment and then asked:
"The national master's cultivation is unfathomable, and the chances of something going wrong are slim. What's the second reason?"
Jiang Yi shrugged her shoulders and pointed to the north again: "Fuji Mountain in Beiya County is good at taming animals and started by raising various strange beasts. The ferocious beasts are also spiritual and will not go to the town to die inexplicably. , and the ferocious beasts that make trouble everywhere are, without exception, very ferocious, and they only run towards crowded places until they are killed. This is not consistent with common sense. I suspect that there is someone behind it, deliberately leading the ferocious beasts to cause chaos."
When Zuo Lingquan heard this, he understood what Jiang Yi meant - this was not suspicion, he made it clear that Fuji Mountain was secretly driving the ferocious beasts to cause chaos, forcing the court to drive away Qihuang Valley and replace them with them.
"What do you want me to do? Go check Fuqi Mountain?"
"Your skills as a three-legged cat are gone before you reach Beiya County and cannot be investigated. Moreover, as long as the Imperial Master is safe and sound, if you give Fuqishan a hundred courages, they will not dare to provoke Qihuang Valley. You are not I just want to go to Qihuang Valley to study under my master, so I’ll take this opportunity to pay more attention. As long as I make sure that the Imperial Master is safe and sound, everything else is not worth mentioning.”
"Qihuang Valley is just outside the city. The princess hasn't sent anyone to inquire about it?"
"I have inquired about it, but found nothing. There is no national master in Qihuang Valley, and the five masters cannot support such a large business. If the matter is exposed, the birds will definitely occupy the magpie's nest. They don't dare to let me or the outside world know. You look smart. , his character is also good, I think he is very popular with some of his uncles, maybe he can find out the truth. "
Zuo Lingquan was rarely praised by Jiang Yi and smiled: "I understand, I will do my best and tell the princess as soon as there is news."
Jiang Yi nodded slowly, hesitated, and then stood up to see him off.
But when the two of them walked to the car door, Zuo Lingquan suddenly stopped and asked seriously:
"By the way, princess, when will we get married?"
Jiang Yi blinked-when will you get married? The clan and some court officials are eager to choose a consort today, hold a wedding tomorrow, and drive her out of the palace.
Returning to power and leaving the palace can be postponed for some time by using the younger brother, but as a compromise, the marriage cannot be postponed. According to the Zong family's arrangement, it will soon be...
I have to be pinned down by this little thief under the quilt and fucked seriously!
She can't fight back yet!
The corner of Jiang Yi's calm eyes twitched suddenly, feeling uncomfortable all over and her mind was slightly confused. She quickly suppressed it and stared at her eyes and said:
"Are you anxious?"
Zuo Lingquan was at a loss for words for a moment. When he spoke in a hurry, he seemed to be in a hurry. She said she was not in a hurry, and she was suspected of not coveting the princess's beauty, which made Jiang Yi worry. After thinking for a while he smiled and said:
"I'm afraid that the princess is in a hurry to hold the wedding, so I want to arrange the schedule in advance so as not to delay the wedding."
"Why are you in such a hurry? You should be busy with your own affairs first. I will inform you when I confirm the date."
Zuo Lingquan said no more, raised his hand and saluted, then turned around and got out of the chariot.
Jiang Yi watched Zuo Lingquan leave. After seeing him get out of the car, she quickly closed the car door and let out a long sigh of relief...
