Chapter 2742 Chapter 2744 [Prince Lidun]
After returning to the side hall, Prince Lidun took out his right hand from his sleeve and saw five deep finger marks on his right hand. It was as if he had been pinched by iron pliers. His right hand was red, swollen and painful. Extremely uncomfortable.
?This encounter also made him hate and fear Xiang Nan.
I didn’t expect this person to behave in such a weird way. It not only made him mute and suffered from the pain of eating coptis, but also saved his face in front of everyone. He was both an enemy and a friend, which made him really confused.
…
? Xiang Nan went into battle in person and defeated Prince Lidun, saving the face of Toyo Chao and making all the soldiers of Toyo Chao admire him.
I didn’t expect that the fifth prince, at such a young age, looked so gentle and elegant, but was so strong that he defeated the savage-like Prince Lidun. It was truly amazing!
“The fifth prince is mighty!”
“The fifth prince’s divine power!”
Everyone praised him one after another.
"Okay, everyone, everyone is tired and has a rest early. We have to go to see the King of Xizhou tomorrow." Xiang Nan ordered.
?Everyone took the order one after another.
Xiang Nan also returned to the main hall. After washing, he took a shower and changed clothes.
By this time, the ambassador had also served delicacies, wine and delicacies.
Xiang Nan has been walking in a hurry for the past ten days, and he has been tired from driving and horseback. He has never had a good meal, and the birds have long faded from his mouth, so now he is just in time to feast.
Even if he is poisoned, he will not be afraid.
??After all, with the magic of the "Shenzhen Sutra", it can even dissolve the most poisonous ice silkworm in the world, let alone other poisons.
?Even the more poisonous the poison, the faster his internal strength will increase after it is resolved.
Because "The Divine Foot Sutra" is a wonderful method for defusing external demons during Qigong practice. The stronger the external demon, the more miraculous the Divine Foot Sutra becomes.
In "The Eight Parts of the Dragon", You Tanzhi studied "The Divine Foot Sutra" for less than half a year, and his internal strength was strong enough to rival Xiao Feng and surpass Ding Chunqiu and Murong Fu. This was because he was poisoned by ice silkworm poison, the worst poison in the world.
After eating and drinking, Xiang Nan went to bed to rest and recuperate, preparing to meet the King of Xizhou tomorrow.
…
At the same time, inside the Xizhou Palace.
A beautiful woman was covering her mouth and coughing lightly, leaving traces of blood on her handkerchief.
"Princess Mingyuan, are you okay?" At this time, a man hurriedly walked in. It was the person who had been monitoring Xiang Nan just now. Seeing this situation, he quickly stepped forward and asked with concern.
"I''m fine." The beauty waved her hand and said, it was Princess Mingyuan of Toyo Chao.
She has been in the Western Region for fifteen years to get married. She first married the original King of Xizhou, who is also the brother of the current King of Xizhou.
There is a custom in the Western Region that elder brothers succeed each other. Therefore, after the death of the original King of Xizhou, the throne was inherited by the current King of Xizhou. Princess Mingyuan also remarried the current King of Xizhou as a concubine.
“Chai Mu, have you seen Cheng Yin?” Mingyuan asked.
“I see, the fifth prince is both civil and military, extremely intelligent, and very magnanimous. He is definitely not a thing in the pond.” The middle-aged man named Chai Mu nodded.
?Just now Xiang Nan had a duel with Li Dun, and it was obvious that he could win in one fell swoop, but he only taught Li Dun a small lesson, but avoided making him embarrassed in public, and did not want to antagonize Shuo Bo over trivial matters.
Obviously, his intelligence and heart are first-rate. However, he was able to win when wrestling with Li Dun. It was obvious that he had a lot of energy and his martial arts was quite good.
"When the crown prince dies, the throne of the East Palace becomes vacant. King Xuande is ambitious and covets the crown prince''s position. And the Queen and the high ministers, in order to consolidate the power of their relatives, will definitely find ways to support a puppet to occupy the East Palace." Mingyuan sighed and said worriedly , "Cheng Yin''s carefree life is about to end. Whether he wants it or not, he will be involved in this **** storm.
"The fifth prince is simple, easy to be taken advantage of, and gullible. In addition, he is not the queen''s biological child. If he loses his usefulness, his life may be in danger." Chai Mu also said worriedly.????Smartness and simplicity are not contradictory. Qu Xiaofeng is also very smart, but unfortunately too naive.
"Maybe it''s time to tell him the truth." Mingyuan thought for a long time and finally made up his mind.
Chai Mu nodded.
…
Turning around, Xiang Nan led an envoy to the palace to meet the King of Xizhou.
“The fifth prince of the Toyo Dynasty has arrived!” the ceremony officer shouted loudly.
"The fifth prince of the Feng Dynasty, Li Chengyin, pays homage to the king!" Xiang Nan led the members of the envoy into the main hall and bowed deeply to the king of Xizhou.
“No courtesy!” King Xizhou said with a smile.
"I came to Xizhou this time on the order of my father, and I came here specifically to present this letter of peace to the king and ask the king to read it." Xiang Nan presented the letter of peace to the king.
?The king of Xizhou ordered his attendant to present it. After unfolding it, he looked at it carefully.
"My father hopes that the king can marry the nine princesses of your country to the Central Plains. After Princess Mingyuan, the two countries can once again be reunited, maintain good relations, and have good relations for the rest of their lives." Xiang Nan continued.
“It is my king’s long-cherished wish to make peace between the two countries and live in harmony for the rest of their lives. This king…” King Xizhou smiled and nodded, about to nod in agreement.
At this moment, someone outside the palace was heard shouting, "I have been in the post house for seven days, why are you not allowed to see the king?"
?From the sound of the voice, it was Prince Lidun whom we met yesterday.
“Your Majesty, is this the way to treat guests in Xizhou?” he shouted outside the palace.
?The King of Xizhou felt ashamed, but he did not dare to punish Li Dun for his crime. After all, Shuobo has 100,000 troops and his national strength is much stronger than that of Xizhou. He didn''t want to create such a powerful enemy out of thin air, so he could only let Prince Lidun in with a wave of his hand.
…
Prince Lidun then strode up to the hall.
“Prince Lidun is well~” Xiang Nan saluted.
Prince Lidun glanced at Xiang Nan and subconsciously hid his right hand.
?At this time, his right hand was still swollen and looked like a bear''s paw.
?This also caused him to have a psychological shadow as soon as he saw Xiang Nan.
Subsequently, Prince Lidun also made a marriage request to King Xizhou.
When the King of Xizhou heard this, he couldn''t help but look gloomy.
At first, King Shuobo was a dying old man, dozens of years older than King Xizhou. And my ninth princess has just grown hair, that is, she is only fifteen years old. Isn''t it absurd that King Shuobo wants to marry him when his granddaughters are all rich?
Secondly, King Shuobo once married the eldest princess of King Tiedal of Danchi as his concubine, and the ninth princess was the granddaughter of King Tiedal. According to the etiquette, King Shuobo should be called uncle. Even if the people of the West don''t pay much attention to ethical relationships, this matter is still very disgusting.
Three times, although Shuobo was stronger than Xizhou, it was far inferior to Fengchao. The King of Xizhou had already decided to marry his daughter into the Feng Dynasty in order to continue the marriage, so how could he marry two daughters together and then betrothed to King Shuobo.
Prince Lidun seemed not to notice King Xizhou''s expression, and still said enthusiastically, "Your Majesty, the proposal for marriage is more than a sincerity. Compared with Feng Chao who only brought a letter of marriage, we Shuobo are willing to take it. I will pay ten years of tribute as a betrothal gift to marry the Ninth Princess."
"Yes, if you want to propose marriage, you must put your sincerity first." At this time, a clear voice was heard outside the palace, and then three women dressed as palace maids walked into the palace.
?The first person has bright eyes, white teeth, picturesque eyebrows, vivid temperament, and high spirits. She is a complete beauty.
