MTL - After Marrying the Sick and Weak Son, I Turned Around (I Turned Over A New Leaf After Marrying A Sickly Lord)-Chapter 346 Do you owe it?
Chapter 346 Do you owe it?
Shen Juncheng stared at him with eyes like hawks, "Since men can have three wives and four concubines, why does the emperor want the harem to be vacant and only marry Queen Xiao?"
Over the years, Song Xingyuan chose a group of concubines according to the minister's opinion. Unfortunately, these concubines were either smashed out of the wall or returned for committing crimes. In the end, Queen Xiao was the only one in the palace.
Everyone says that Empress Xiao is jealous and has a good way to clean up the harem so clean, but the truth, is it really true?
"Your Majesty should have also heard a saying, do not do to others what you do not want to do to yourself."
The last smile on Song Xingyuan's lips disappeared, and he became completely serious. Just looking at him like this, the atmosphere froze for a while, and the quiet needle drop could be heard.
Shen Juncheng didn't take a step back, just stared at him so persistently, it was absolutely impossible for him to marry the princess of a neighboring country.
After a while, there was a hearty smile in the hall.
Song Xingyuan sat lazily and said, "Oh, oh, it's been a long time since I saw Brother Shen scolding me like this, I miss him very much."
In the past, when he was the dashing idle king, he was often speechless and furious by Shen Juncheng. At that time, Brother Shen was reckless and frivolous, but he couldn't get any cheap.
Shen Juncheng gave him a roll of eyes as usual, "You are the emperor now, how dare I insult you?"
Song Xingyuan complained, "Aren't you just scolding me now, where have you ever seen an emperor say a word, a minister, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah."
Shen Jun admitted and refuted, "That's what you said is wrong, I'm giving my opinion."
Song Xingyuan smacked his lips, "What an opinion, it's the first time I've seen such a mention."
Denied it directly to him, and called it an opinion.
"I'm sorry, Weichen has a straight temper, and his opinions are always straightforward."
Song Xingyuan heard his words, he didn't know where he hit the point of laughter, and laughed again.
Shen Juncheng gave him another look, "Do you owe it?"
Song Xingyuan reluctantly stopped laughing, touched his nose, and said, "It seems a bit."
Shen Jun Cheng replied: "You are not a little, you are smoking."
The two of you went back and forth like this, the atmosphere that had been frozen before dissipated in an instant, and it seemed to return to the past.
Song Xingyuan waved his hand and said casually: "Okay, okay, if I really want to give you a marriage, I will send an imperial decree directly. If you don't accept it, I can also treat you as disrespectful to the decree, where will you be? Let Du Maoming come to inform you and let you stand here and question me?"
"You, you have always been calm, but when you meet your little wife, you lose your senses and are so reckless."
Shen Juncheng was tired from standing, so he found a place to sit down and said, "Who knows if you came to me to test my tone. If I didn't act so strong, what if you forced me in?"
On the way, it is not that he did not think about the reasons for this, but he still chose the safest method and did not retreat one step.
Song Xingyuan asked the **** to serve tea and rolled him a glance, "In your eyes, brothers are so unreliable, knowing that you love your sweet wife to the death, do you have to beat the mandarin ducks?"
Shen Juncheng was skeptical, "I feel like you are unreliable."
Song Xingyuan snorted, too lazy to break up with him.
Shen Juncheng took a sip of tea and said, "Tell me, why did you suddenly want to marry me?"
Song Xingyuan pulled from the memorial, summoned the letter from Shu, and threw it away.
Shen Juncheng took it steadily, opened his eyes and looked at it.
Song Xingyuan explained by the side: "The Shu Kingdom did have a good relationship with Dazhao before, but in recent years, they have changed their new emperor, and their minds may not be."
"You have been fighting at the border for the past four years, and you still don't understand many things in the DPRK and China."
Song Xingyuan analyzed with him the recent conflict between Shu and Dazhao and Shu's contempt.
As soon as he came to power, he encountered Zhou Qing's attack, the court was unstable, he was on guard everywhere, and he inevitably had a little more patience with Shu. soup.
Song Xingyuan did not have a plan, but before his plan could be dispatched, the Shu Kingdom took the initiative.
"I'm not kidding, the Kingdom of Shu came to envoy and took the initiative to conclude the friendship between Qin and Jin, and the princess did call you by name."
Shen Juncheng put away the letter, "They don't always think that by placing a princess by my side, they can spy on anything?"
Song Xingyuan shook his head, "Maybe they have that idea, but I don't think their drunkard's intention is to drink."
"I received a secret letter a few days ago, Zhou Qing secretly went to the State of Shu and stayed for three days before returning, and within three days after he came back, the State of Shu sent an envoy, bringing many gifts, and the mighty Swinging, very ostentatious."
Hearing Zhou Qing, Shen Juncheng's expression became solemn, "Zhou Qing participated?"
"Well, I guess, it is Zhou Qing's idea that the Shu Kingdom wants to conclude a relationship between Qin and Jin with us now."
Shen Juncheng frowned, and after a little thought, he understood the reason.
Zhou Qing must have had insight into the minds of the state of Shu long ago, and took the opportunity to encourage them to come at this time to marry the princess of the state of Shu to him on the grounds of making a good relationship with Qin and Jin. Not getting married.
The beauty of the general, this is a good story, they have no reason to disagree.
But the problem is that outsiders don't know, Shen Juncheng's love for Su An'an.
What's more, they have already divorced.
If Shen Juncheng refused to agree, he would take the initiative to cut off the friendship with the Shu Kingdom and give them enough reasons to attack. After all, they seemed to be very enthusiastic about coming to be friends with Qin and Jin.
Once he had no choice but to agree, a thorn was buried between him and An An, even if he didn't voluntarily, he would have lost An An after all.
Shen Juncheng clenched his palm, Zhou Qing was really good at scheming, so he would not agree.
He got up, "I came forward to meet the envoys of Shu, and see what they mean, whether they really want to have a grudge with Dazhao, or do they want to get something out of it, or, if Zhou Qing can push back, we can also win over us."
He thought of several countermeasures for a moment, but was stopped by Song Xingyuan.
"The exchanges between the two countries have always been the same. Zhou Qing's participation this time, I guess it is impossible for him to not want to gain any benefits. It is very likely that Zhou Qing has made an appointment with Shu behind the scenes and will fight together, so, It's useless for you to expose Zhou Qing's schemes, let alone win over."
After all, who doesn't want to get a piece of the pie, Jokhang is rich in resources, wouldn't the Shu Kingdom be envious.
Shen Juncheng looked at him and suddenly asked, "It seems that the emperor has a solution?"
Song Xingyuan put on a helpless expression, "The country has just been at peace, the soldiers have returned, and the joy of family has not yet had time to enjoy. The people will definitely not want to start a war. If the war is finally caused by your personal reasons, then Brother Shen has finally accumulated the reputation. It was completely destroyed.”
You came back with a great victory, and the people are now looking at you and thanking you, but what the people yearn most in their hearts is not to fight.
In a general who is brave and good at fighting, and in an era of stability and no wars, they will definitely choose the latter.
"So?" Shen Juncheng asked lightly.
Song Xingyuan pretended to sigh, "So I have a solution, I just don't know Brother Shen, do you want to?"
Shen Juncheng sat down again, his eyebrows calmed down.
It was not until Hai Shi that Shen Juncheng returned.
The end of April, the night in May is still slightly cool.
Shen Juncheng stepped on the dew steam and walked into Zehui Garden.
Su Anan just finished taking a bath and hadn't gone to bed yet. She sat in front of the dressing mirror with her hair flowing, with a graceful back.
Shen Juncheng looked at it, raised his foot and walked in, Yueluo wanted to salute, he raised his hand to stop it, waved his hand, Yueluo went down quietly, and closed the door along the way.
Su Anan heard a creak and turned around curiously, and saw him standing behind him, took the comb in her hand, and skillfully passed her hair.
Su Anan hugged his waist and rubbed, "You're back, why did you go for so long?"
Shen Juncheng said: "Song Xingyuan's guy is talking a lot of nonsense. He dragged me and talked a lot of useless things, so it was delayed for a while."
Su Anan raised his head, "He is an emperor, and you still call him by his name, will he be angry when he hears it?"
Shen Juncheng's brows and eyes are very gentle, "No, I'm all shouting behind my back, he can't hear it."
Hahaha, Su An is happy, I thought he really wasn't shy.
She sat obediently, let him comb his hair, and then said that the princess' grandmother came today, and ate here in the evening, sighing about the changes that had not been seen in four years, chattering, and looking very cheerful.
Shen Juncheng listened quietly, looking at his expression from the dressing mirror, showing infinite doting.
Su Anan looked at him, and suddenly became silent.
Shen Jun Chengtong had good hair, put down the comb, picked her up, hugged her from behind, and said affectionately, "What's wrong? Are you unhappy all of a sudden?"
Su Anan lowered his head, clasped his fingers, and said, "What did you do when you entered the palace today?"
She didn't want to ask him. She didn't bother to ask him about the general affairs of the government, but she just heard Maoming's marriage gift in the afternoon.
If Song Xingyuan was marrying him for her, then Shen Juncheng shouldn't have such a solemn expression.
So, there is only one possibility.
Su Anan looked very happy at night, but in reality she always carried it.
Shen Juncheng allowed her to play with her fingers, and smiled softly: "What else do I take to make you unhappy."
Su Anan listened to his light tone and said solemnly, "Be honest, don't hide it from me."
Shen Juncheng kissed the tip of her ear and said, "Why should I lie to you? Song Xingyuan called me into the palace because he wanted to give me a marriage. Shu came to envoy, saying that their eldest princess had taken a fancy to me."
He said in distress: "Sure enough, it was my being too handsome to blame."
Su An'an's eyes widened. Now, where is he in the mood to tease him, and he asked nervously, "Then what happened to you?"
To make him come back so late, it must not be just a gift of marriage, I am afraid that it is mixed with a lot of involvement, and it is not so easy to deal with.
Shen Juncheng saw her reaction and said with a smile, "Don't believe me?"
Su Anan lowered her eyes, "I don't believe him."
This him is undoubtedly Song Xingyuan. After all, he is now the emperor. No matter how powerful Shen Juncheng is, he is also a minister.
Shen Juncheng rubbed her head, "You don't have to trust him, just trust your husband."
"I have promised you that you are the only one in this life, and I won't marry anyone, even a princess, and I can't compare to my An An."
Su Anan felt relieved, and took the initiative to wrap his neck around him and asked, "Then why did the emperor suddenly give you a marriage?"
Shen Juncheng explained it in detail without concealing her.
When Su Anan heard Zhou Qing, her eyebrows suddenly became complicated.
When she left this time, Zhou Qing personally sent her to her, and wished her happiness, but she took a lot of guilt from her, and she also wanted to make Shen Juncheng reconcile with him in the future, so don't target her again.
Where does he know he turned his head, and he slammed on it again.
Shen Juncheng saw her sad face and reassured: "Don't worry, there is a solution to this matter."
Su Anan asked excitedly, "What way?"
Shen Juncheng said lightly: "I voluntarily gave up the position of the general, handed over the military power, and moved to Liguancheng to guard. It is impossible for them to marry the princess to a city lord of a small border town."
Su Anan was stunned, "Is this what Song Xingyuan mentioned?"
At this moment, she didn't even call herself the emperor, but called Song Xingyuan directly, because anyone could see that this was not so much a trick, but rather a disguised exploitation, slaughtering the donkey.
Shen Juncheng had just returned from victory, and he remembered that he handed over the military power in his hands. This is really ruthless and unjust.
Shen Juncheng hummed, "He mentioned it."
Su An'an was laughed angrily, "You agree?"
Shen Juncheng hummed indifferently again, "I agree."
