Chapter 2762 Chapter 2764 [The teacher returns to the court]
"Fifth prince, my father sent me a message, asking me to match you with the ninth princess." Gao Xian suggested to Xiang Nan, "If you can get closer to the water, first to the moon, then it will be very helpful for you to ascend to the throne of the prince." Help. Look, do you want me to make arrangements? Let you get things done with her first."
When Xiang Nan heard this, he wished he could roll his eyes.
What a bad idea this is. Using a bully''s method of forcing a bow to capture a woman, can she make her devoted to him? !
???Does this mean treating others as idiots or treating yourself as an idiot?
"Hey, cousin, please don''t do this." Xiang Nan waved his hand and said, "The King of Xizhou is now named Dingxi Khan, and he is also a person whom the court relies on. As the legitimate daughter, the ninth princess has a distinguished status and should not be underestimated.
Besides, I already have a sweetheart, and I’m really not interested in a tough guy. Thank you cousin for your kindness, I only appreciate it from my heart. "
“Okay then.” Gao Xian nodded.
He received a letter from his father, Gao Ming, asking him to match Xiang Nan with the nine princesses of Xizhou. Gao Xian had no idea what to do about it, so he originally thought of using force.
Let Xiang Nan and Ninth Princess make cooked rice. At that time, the emperor would not be able to give him the Ninth Princess even if he wanted to. And with the Ninth Princess, she has the power to control the Western Territory. When the time comes, the emperor will have to make more considerations when establishing a prince.
?It''s just that Princess Mingyuan is the concubine of Xizhou now. She is the emperor''s sister, and she will never allow him to do whatever he wants in Xizhou, so he can''t really help with this.
?Now that Xiang Nan refuses, that would be great.
At that time, even if his father blames him, he can blame Xiang Nan. It was because the fifth prince refused, not because he was incompetent.
…
The king of Xizhou was named Dingxi Khan, which made King Shuo Boli Dun very dissatisfied.
?He originally thought that after Dan Chi was destroyed, the countries in the western border should respect Shuo Bo.
After all, Shuobo was not only powerful as a country, he also had a share of the credit for the annihilation of Dan Chi this time.
Unexpectedly, the King of Xizhou, who did nothing but marry his daughter, received a reward from the Feng Dynasty.
“Dingxi Khan”, how noble!
“If I had known earlier, I would have given birth to a beautiful daughter.” King Lidun said with an angry smile.
In fact, Xiang Nan and others knew that this was another check and balance strategy of the Feng Dynasty, with the purpose of causing discord between Xizhou and Shuobo. In this way, it can divide and conquer, and the fishermen will profit.
??The King of Xizhou then prepared a large amount of dowry, including more than 30 carts, to send his daughter Qu Xiaofeng to marry into the Feng Dynasty.
By chance, Xiang Nan and Pei Zhao also wanted to return to Beijing, so they traveled together.
??Chai Mu and his Qianlong envoys also returned to the capital with Xiang Nan. As for Gu Jian, he was left in Yanzhi City.
One is to protect Princess Mingyuan; the other is to avoid Xiang Nan''s suspicion.
?This time he kidnapped the ninth princess without authorization and almost caused a disaster. Even Chai Mu had objections to him, let alone Xiang Nan.
It is not surprising that Xiang Nan did not want to use him and wanted him to stay in the western region.
Chai Mu also hopes that he will stay in Xizhou and calm down. It will be the same when he forgets the Ninth Princess and transfers him back to the capital.
…
? Along the way, it’s a long journey and a lot of fatigue.
“Li Chengyin, Li Chengyin, please ask me questions again. I will definitely be able to answer them.” Qu Xiaofeng poked his head out of the carriage and said.
When Xiang Nan saw it, he smiled slightly, rode over and asked. "Ask, why do wild geese fly south in winter?"
“Because the winter in the south is warm.” Qu Xiaofeng thought for a while and said.
“Wrong.” Xiang Nan shook his head.
“Why is that?” Qu Xiaofeng asked in confusion.
"Because it''s too slow to go south, so I have to fly." Xiang Nan answered.
“Come again, come again.” Qu Xiaofeng chuckled upon hearing this.
"Ask, what is the first thing you do when you wake up in the morning?" Xiang Nan asked. “Of course it’s time to get dressed,” Qu Xiaofeng said immediately.
“Wrong!” Xiang Nan waved his hand.
“It’s just about wearing clothes. Don’t you want to wear clothes?” Qu Xiaofeng questioned.
"The first thing you do when you wake up is open your eyes." Xiang Nan said with a smile.
“Yes, I was fooled by you again.” Qu Xiaofeng was stunned for a moment, suddenly realized, and then smiled and said, “Come again, come again.”
"Xiao Ming''s mother has three children. The eldest is called Da Mao, and the second is called Er Mao. What is the name of the third?" Xiang Nan asked again.
“Of course it’s Sanmao,” Qu Xiaofeng said.
“Princess, she might be called Xiaomao.” A’Du added at the side.
“Yes, Xiaomao.” Qu Xiaofeng nodded.
“Wrong!” Xiang Nan waved his hand.
“What’s that called?” Qu Xiaofeng asked in confusion.
"My name is Xiao Ming. I just told you that Xiao Ming''s mother has three children. The eldest is called Da Mao, the second is called Er Mao, and the third is Xiao Ming." Xiang Nan explained.
“That’s it.” Qu Xiaofeng understood immediately, “I hate it, I’ve been deceived by you again.”
Xiang Nan chuckled.
…
After these days of getting along, the relationship between Xiang Nan and Qu Xiaofeng has improved a lot.
Actually, there was no mortal enmity between them.
? Xiang Nan did not kill King Tiedal, did not betray Qu Xiaofeng, did not force the concubine of Xizhou to death, did not drive the King of Xizhou crazy... At most, it was because of the national war that he captured King Danchi''s tent.
It is not wrong for him to do so when countries fight against each other. Tanchi has also harassed the Toyoto border many times, but now it''s just tit-for-tat, there''s nothing to be pretentious about.
Moreover, Xiang Nan also returned A''du to her. Therefore, Qu Xiaofeng quickly forgave him.
??Coupled with the fact that Xiang Nan is good at coaxing girls, telling her a joke, telling her a story, and giving her some gifts, it is easy to make the simple-minded and innocent Qu Xiaofeng happy.
?However, Adu was still hostile to Xiang Nan because Danchi was destroyed and his brother was killed. However, she also knew that Xiang Nan''s martial arts skills were extremely high, and she would not act rashly again until she was no longer sure of victory.
?Otherwise, if you fail, the princess will be the unlucky one again.
…
?Halfway through the journey, Chai Mu came to Xiang Nan and told him some news.
“King Tiedal committed suicide.” He said to Xiang Nan.
Chai Mu returned to Shangjing with Xiang Nan this time to assist him in ascending to the throne of prince. Therefore, he sent the Qianlong envoy to the capital early to collect information in advance and make preparations.
The Qianlong envoys all ride fast horses and travel under the stars and at night, unlike Xiang Nan and his party, who drag their families with them and walk slowly and leisurely on the road. Therefore, they arrived in the capital early and had already collected a lot of information.
Among them was the news of King Tidar’s suicide.
It turns out that after Li Chengye returned to the court, he held a grand prisoner presentation ceremony in Beijing, which caused a sensation in the capital. After the prisoner sacrifice ceremony, King Tiedal was imprisoned in prison, preparing to accept the investigation into the death of the prince.
Unexpectedly, he hanged himself that night. Public opinion now says that he hanged himself because he couldn''t bear the humiliation.
"Mr. Chai believes that he committed suicide?" Xiang Nan looked at Chai Mudao.
"If King Tidar could not bear the humiliation, he would have died before the palace presented the prisoners. It is obviously abnormal to die after the prisoners were presented," Chai Mu analyzed.
Xiang Nan nodded, knowing that it was probably his second brother Li Chengye who was responsible.
