Steal my marriage? Turn around and marry the dude to take power

A few days later, envoys from Western Xia arrived in Beijing.

Fifteen years ago, the Princess Xianhuguo went on an expedition to Western Xia and killed several generals of Western Xia in succession, causing Western Xia to not send troops to invade for more than ten years.

For more than ten years, Xixia had been gathering strength, but in recent years it has started to commit crimes again.

The country annexed three surrounding tribes in succession and became increasingly powerful.

From the time of the previous emperor to the present day, the territory of Western Xia has expanded to one-third of Daliang.

However, the recent sudden marriage alliance in Daliang seems to have brought about a longer period of peace, making the atmosphere in the capital very lively.

Today is the day when Xixia enters the capital. Wen Xingchen had never experienced the excitement in his previous life, but he is curious about it in this life.

She asked someone to reserve a spot with a good view along the route they were passing.

Not long after I sat down, I saw Cheng Yan and Gao Qingqing coming.

The two were originally in the teahouse diagonally opposite. They happened to see Wen Xingchen and came over to discuss it.

Wen Xingchen naturally welcomed them.

After Cheng Yan and Gao Qingqing paid their respects to the princess, Wen Xingchen offered them a seat.

"Princess, you have been promoted to a princess, why don't you hold a banquet? Sister Qingqing and I are discussing giving you a gift."

Wen Xingchen was not interested in these empty rituals, and her father was now a marquis, so why would he hold a banquet?

That was a slap in his face.

Besides, his father was unwilling to host a banquet for her.

"This princess doesn't like those lively things, so I didn't do it."

Cheng Yan knew that the princess was not particular about trivial matters, so she did not suspect anything.

"Princess, are you here to see the Xixia prince today? I heard that the Xixia prince has blue eyes and looks like a monster."

Wen Xingchen shook his head.

Although Wen Xingchen had never seen the Western Xia prince Tuoba Muyuan in her previous life, she had seen someone with blue eyes who was extremely beautiful.

"Someone will be here soon, and we'll be able to see him later."

Soon, the convoy of Western Xia envoys arrived.

"Which one is the prince of Xixia?"

There were about a hundred people in the convoy. Wen Xingchen took a quick look and found Tuoba Muyuan in the middle. The reason was nothing else but the sword in his hand. It was Longming, which was said to be exclusive to Tuoba Muyuan.

However, a few years later it was seized by Chen Jingting and given to the young emperor.

"The man in the middle, riding a Ferghana horse and wearing a black brocade belt on his head."

Cheng Yan searched and saw the person the princess mentioned.

"Wow, he doesn't look like the rumors."

This ancient man had a slender figure, with a square face, broad eyebrows, sword-like eyebrows, bright eyes, a high nose bridge, straight lips, a full forehead, and an imposing bearing. He looked very heroic, as steady and resolute as the bluestone that had never changed since ancient times.

It's not just inconsistent, it's clearly misleading.

"He's really handsome."

The man was riding a horse and talking to the person beside him, so his blue eyes could not be seen.

Wen Xingchen saw a pot of chrysanthemums placed on the table, which was suitable for the occasion. As he thought in his mind, Wen Xingchen picked a chrysanthemum and threw it down when Tuoba Muyuan passed by.

As luck would have it, it fell next to Tuoba Muyuan and was caught by him.

He also raised his head and looked towards Wen Xingchen.

And Wen Xingchen also saw Tuoba Muyuan's blue eyes.

Very deep, like a pool of blue water, clear to the bottom, and as unfathomable as a spring. But although those eyes were smiling, it was impossible to guess their thoughts, and it was impossible to tell whether they were happy, angry, sad, or joyful.

When Tuoba Muyuan saw the woman upstairs, his eyes, which showed no emotion, actually flashed with a hint of surprise.

She held a cup of tea and raised it slightly towards him below.

It was as if the two knew each other.

Tuoba Muyuan raised his eyebrows, his handsome eyes hiding the ambition to take it for himself.

The military advisor beside him said, "The customs in Daliang are not as rumored. Women never leave the main gate or the secondary gate. The women in Daliang are indeed bold."

"Chuiye, don't you think the women of Daliang are beautiful?"

"It is beautiful, but even beauties have thorns. Your Highness, please consider the purpose of your visit."

"of course."

They originally wanted to form an alliance with the Northern Kingdom, but it ended in failure. They had no choice but to seek a better marriage partner.

The beam is the best choice.

They also made a plan when they came. Emperor Jingtai had only one princess, and although that princess was married, her husband had died.

The customs of the Xixia people are different from those of the Daliang people, and they don't care much about women's chastity.

After the convoy of Western Xia envoys left, Cheng Yan and the others couldn't help but sigh: The princess is really brave.

They actually dared to throw flowers at the envoy. When Tuoba Muyuan looked over, the two of them hid themselves immediately.

"You heard he was a monster and all rushed to see him. Why are you hiding when someone looks at you? Where's your courage?"

Cheng Yan chuckled and said, "Princess, I don't have even a fraction of your courage. We will definitely learn from you in the future."

Wen Xingchen knew this was an excuse.

Wen Xingchen was about to say something when he heard Xiao Bo's voice: "You'd better not learn Princess Huayang's courage, lest you be led astray."

Xiao Bo?

Why is he here.

Wen Xingchen looked over and saw several people walking out of the compartment, among them Chen Jingting?

Wen Xingchen suddenly felt embarrassed as if he had been caught.

She just threw a flower, a chrysanthemum, nothing special, right?

"Your Highness, the King of Wu, has met with your Majesty."

"Well, get up."

Xiao Bo glanced at Cheng Yan. This was her future princess, and she was both pretty and had a nice personality.

However, her father was conservative and rejected her reform ideas many times.

Humph, this marriage is a good one.

Wen Xingchen asked:

"Why are you here? The envoys are coming to the capital today. Isn't the palace busy?"

"The envoys have just arrived in Beijing today, so naturally the Ministry of Rites will be responsible for their reception."

When Cheng Yan saw them coming, she said, "Princess, Your Majesty, I have something else to do, so I'll take my leave now."

Uncle Xiao said, "You left right after I arrived. What's the matter? Do you look down on me?"

Cheng Yan said slightly embarrassedly: "No."

Wen Xingchen looked at Xiao Bo's nonchalant look and said, "Xiao Bo, don't scare me."

Xiao Bo said indifferently: "Cousin, I didn't say anything."

Wen Xingchen said, "This princess sees that you are fine, so send them back."

Xiao Bo stood up and said to Cheng Yan, "Let's go."

Wait until everyone is gone.

She and Chen Jingting were the only ones in the private room.

Yingying went out to guard the door.

Chen Jingting said expressionlessly:

"Princess, is Prince Tuoba handsome?"

"Ah? Who is Prince Tuoba? This princess doesn't even know him?"

"Throwing flowers at someone you don't know?"

"Ah, you said that flower was accidentally dropped by Sister Cheng Yan. Isn't this Xiao Bo here? She didn't dare to admit it."

"..."

Chen Jingting finally knew how to answer in a way that would please others, even a lie could make people feel comfortable both physically and mentally.
