Hidden in the court

Several people looked at each other. Isn't the prince of Khotan the son-in-law of Loulan? How can they sue? As for Qiuci, the royal court will not go to war with Khotan because of a few merchants. Only the northern border can do such a thing.

A few people wisely slipped away, leaving Yuchi Zheng standing there in a daze.

It was because the girl in front of her was so beautiful. Although she was dressed simply, she was more beautiful than any woman she had ever seen.

His gaze made the girl feel a little uncomfortable and she lowered her head silently.

Yuchi Zheng also realized his own impoliteness at this time. He came to his senses and laughed dryly in embarrassment.

How can I feel this way? Yuchi Zheng, you have a fiancée. Thinking this in my heart, I asked sincerely, "Can you tell me your name?"

"Lanna..."

The girl said weakly.

At this time, the owner of the hotel came forward.

"Thank you for rescuing this child, Your Highness."

"Oh, it's just a small favor, not worth mentioning..."

Seeing the awkward atmosphere, Yuchi Zheng immediately said: "It's okay, I'll leave first, I will go to the royal court to see my fiancée..."

Somehow, Lana behind the boss showed a hint of disappointment in her eyes.

In the Loulan Royal Court, the King of Loulan is receiving Xihe and his ministers.

"Your Highness, the marriage between the Loulan royal family and the Khotan royal family is a great joy. Your presence is an arrangement by heaven."

The King of Loulan communicated with Xihe and his ministers in his poor Chinese.

"Today, the prince of Khotan will come. He is the bravest hero in the Western Regions, and my daughter is the most beautiful woman in the Western Regions. He will marry my daughter, and Loulan and Khotan will be better off."

Xihe Huchen listened, not interested in his daughter. Looking at the women in the royal court, none of them were much whiter than him, even the princess, should not be much better.

On the contrary, he was interested in this Prince of Khotan. What was this man known as the "bravest hero" like? Could he fight?

"I really want to meet this bravest man you mentioned."

Xihe Huchen said so, causing the King of Loulan to laugh, "You can see him today."

As they were talking, a woman came in and spoke in Loulan language.

"Father, I do not want to marry the prince of Khotan. I have never met him and this is not a good thing."

Obviously, this person is Princess Loulan. But Xihe Huchen was stunned.

What kind of person was that? She had deep eyes, a high nose bridge, broad cheeks, and brown hair draped over her shoulders. She was a complete Western beauty.

In the words of Xihe Huchen: "Big eyes, double eyelids, long eyelashes..."

The most important thing is that her skin is not like that of ordinary people, it is glowing white.

Seeing Xihe Huchen like this, the King of Loulan smiled. It was not that he looked down on him, but that he was proud. Anyone who saw his daughter would be like this.

However, he felt a headache because of what his daughter said, and immediately replied in Loulan language:

"Prince Khotan has arrived. You will meet him today. You can't be so willful. Prince Khotan is a handsome warrior. You will like him."

This made Xihe Huchen unhappy, and he asked the translator beside him: "What are they talking about?"

"Ah, they speak a type of Tocharian language, the Loulan language."

Xihe Huchen glared at him, "I didn't know he was speaking Loulan language? I asked you to translate."

"Oh, the woman said she didn't want to marry the Khotanese prince, and her father tried to persuade her."

"Oh, what's the matter? This woman doesn't like him. Well, this guy is so beautiful, what kind of man would be worthy of him?"

Xihe Huchen smacked his lips and spoke in a self-consciously objective manner.

"Can you translate it literally next time?"

"okay."

The King of Loulan and his daughter continued their conversation.

"No matter how handsome the Khotanese prince is, I don't like him. Marriage is not a responsibility, but a voluntary choice based on love and respect. I am not ready to make such a decision."

"How can it not be a responsibility? You are the Princess of Loulan. This is not sending you to marry a foreign prince. This is just an equal marriage. The Prince of Khotan was also carefully selected by me."

Xihe Huchen also had a great time with the help of the translator.

"This old guy is the same. Why didn't he let my daughter see it first, and just let the family come to pick her up. It would be strange if my daughter was happy about it."

The translation continues.

"My child, you must understand that you cannot find a better man of marriageable age than Yuchi Zheng in the entire Western Regions."

"Father, I think this kind of thing depends on how you feel and whether it's appropriate."

The King of Loulan was so angry that he laughed, probably the same laugh that an old father would have when he hears that you want to see his feelings.

This is not without reason. If a person does not have good conditions in all aspects, how can he be considered excellent?

And your own feelings are the most likely to deceive you.

"You haven't even met him, how do you know if he's suitable? As for your feelings, why don't you tell me how you feel?"

"I feel……"

The translator was stunned for a moment, which made Xihe Huchen anxious.

"Go on, tell me, what does she feel? Don't keep me in suspense, or I'll beat you up!"

The translator looked at him strangely, and Xihe Huchen became even more anxious when he saw his expression.

"Just tell me, are you holding your shit in?"

"That, that woman, she...she seems to like you."

"Oh, what did I think? It turns out she has a lover. That's right, no wonder she doesn't want to marry this Khotanese prince. I have to say, this woman is really affectionate and righteous."

When the King of Loulan heard what his daughter said, he was also frightened. But after thinking carefully, Xihe Huchen was superior to Prince Yutian in all aspects except appearance.

Looking back at Xihe Huchen, if his daughter could marry into the northern border, then the entire Western Region might have to be renamed Loulan.

At this time, Xihe Huchen asked the translator: "Oh, by the way, who did you say she fell in love with?"

As he said this he took another sip of wine.

"She's into you!"

"Pfft-cough..."

Xihe Huchen reacted and sprayed a mouthful of wine onto the translator's face.

This scene made the translator and the King of Loulan think at the same time, what on earth did the princess like about him?

The King of Loulan wanted his daughter to marry Xihe Huchen, but he had to ask the other party's opinion. Besides, the Prince of Khotan had already come to pick up the bride. Although Khotan would certainly not dare to provoke the northern border, it would not be good to bear the reputation of going back on one's word, right?

"You two have different statuses, so this is impossible. If you marry him, you may not be taken seriously. Even so, are you willing?"

The King of Loulan stared into his daughter's eyes, making sure that she was not saying this out of anger.

But the princess looked at Xihe Huchen.

"I am willing."

In the end, the King of Loulan still held on to the fantasy of letting his daughter come in to meet Xihe and Huchen face to face.

However, the translator at this time did not dare to continue translating, so Xihe and Huchen did not know what they had just said.

She bowed to Xihe and Huchen, and made Xihe and Huchen feel awkward.

Although Xihe Huchen admits that he is not a good person, he still feels a bit psychologically pressured by the matter of robbing a bride.
