Died In Infancy! My Wife Is Actually A Villain

Chapter 146 Princess Anyang

Three days later, Mobei learned of the death of the third prince and sent an envoy to Kyoto.

Fengtian Temple.

"I've seen Emperor Wu before!"

A dozen big men wearing Mobei costumes slowly walked into the hall, put their right hands on their chests, and saluted Emperor Wu on the dragon throne.

"Everyone, please stand up!"

Emperor Wu waved his hand to signal them to stand up, and then asked: "I wonder why you are here?"

The leading man said: "My king heard about the death of the third prince and specially ordered us to come here and ask Emperor Wu for an explanation!"

"How dare you, a bunch of barbarians, disrespect your Majesty!"

Seeing that the leader of the Mobei people did not understand the rules at all, an official immediately stood up and scolded him.

Emperor Wu waved his hand and asked the official to step aside, and then said: "This incident was an accident, but the culprit who killed the third prince Helianxuan has been killed. This is also my explanation to Mobei."

At this time, Helianshuo came out and interjected: "Emperor Wu, my third brother came as an envoy to pay tribute to the Great Zhou Dynasty, but was accidentally killed by the officials of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Even if the criminal has been executed, the Great Zhou Dynasty still has something he can't shirk. responsibility."

Emperor Wu's eyes were slightly cold, he looked at the group of Mobei barbarians in a low voice, and asked: "What kind of explanation do you want me to give you!"

The big man said: "My king said that if we can let Princess Anyang marry our king and go to Mobei with us, Mobei will no longer pursue the death of the third prince. Otherwise, my Mobei army will go south. Revenge for the Third Prince!"

"You are so brave, you even dare to covet the princess of this dynasty!"

"The Mobei barbarians should stop being so arrogant. We will never agree to such unreasonable demands."

"Your Majesty, Princess Anyang has always been frail and sickly, and her body is delicate. How could she endure the desolate frontier land in Mobei?"

Hearing that the other party actually wanted Princess Anyang to marry away from Mobei, or to marry an old man over fifty years old, many officials became extremely excited and began to persuade her with great indignation.

Emperor Wu's face was also a little ugly. He looked at the group of Mobei people below and asked indifferently: "You are declaring war on the Great Zhou!"

The big man replied without fear: "We are just seeking justice for Mobei and the third prince!"

"Do you think Dazhou dare not take action against Mobei?! Or do you think I am too old now!"

Seeing these Mobei people openly revealing their ambitions, Emperor Wu became angry for the first time.

Seeing Emperor Wu's indifferent face, Helian Shuo bowed slightly and whispered: "Emperor Wu, I, Mobei, just want justice. My third brother cannot die in Da Zhou for no reason."

"Princess Anyang will never marry to Mobei. There is no need to discuss this matter. Resign from the court!"

Emperor Wu slapped his palm on the long table, then stood up from the dragon chair and left the hall directly in front of all the civil and military officials.

"What a wolfish ambition!"

Seeing Emperor Wu leaving, General Zhao Tai gave Helian Shuo and his party a cold look, shook off his official robes heavily, and left the hall beside them.

The other officials also left one after another, but when they looked at the group of Mobei barbarians, they didn't have a good expression on their faces.

Who doesn't know that Princess Anyang was the most beloved princess of Emperor Wu, and they, a group of barbarians, dared to covet the apple of Zhou's eye.

I really don’t know whether to live or die.

Gu Chen also glanced at Helian Shuo and then left the hall.

It seems that the hunting incident has caused the plot to deviate from the direction. Originally, Mobei could not have launched an attack on Zhou in such a big way. Instead, he lay dormant until the famine period in Huzhou and suddenly raised his troops to go south.

Getting engaged to Princess Gu Zijin of Anyang is even more out of the question.

There is also the king of Mobei. If I remember correctly, he is over sixty years old and has an endless number of wives and concubines in his harem.

,

In the minds of the Mobei people, women without status are just animals who can be killed and humiliated at will.

Once they encounter a disobedient woman, they may put her in a cattle pen and eat and drink with the animals.

Once Princess Anyang marries far away, she will not only have to deal with the harsh environment, but she will also have to deal with the wives and concubines behind King Mobei at any time.

After all, Mobei women have always looked down on the weak and incompetent Dazhou women.

Moreover, Mobei also has the concept of inheritance, that is, after the king dies, everything he owns will be inherited by the new king, including the other party's woman.

It was precisely for these reasons that the officials in the main hall were so indignant and excited when Mobei proposed marriage.

As for Princess Anyang...

There was some description of her in the original plot.

Princess Anyang was not Emperor Wu's biological daughter, but the daughter of the eldest princess (emperor's sister). But the strange thing was that the eldest princess never married and remained in the harem.

In order to avoid gossip in the palace, Emperor Wu lied that Princess Anyang was born from a concubine, thus preserving the innocence of the eldest princess.

However, Princess Anyang has been in poor health since she was born. Even now, her body is still very weak, and even catching a cold may cause serious illness.

As for whose father Princess Anyang is, the original book did not reveal it.

Of course, except for Gu Chen, few people knew the secrets of the palace. Even if they did, they would have been killed by Emperor Wu long ago.

....

Wenyue Palace.

A palace maid hurriedly opened the door of the palace and ran quickly to a girl in a palace dress, her face anxious and panicked.

"Princess, princess! Sorry, I just heard bad news in the palace!"

The girl smiled lightly and asked softly: "Xian'er, what makes you so panicked?"

The palace maid was so anxious that she almost cried, "Princess, I just heard that the king of Mobei wants to marry you back. Otherwise, they will send troops to attack Dazhou."

"Ahem..."

The girl was stunned for a moment and coughed twice uncontrollably. Her face, which was still a little bloody, immediately turned pale. She looked at the palace maid next to her with bright eyes, "Xiang'er, where did you hear the news?"

"There are rumors in the palace, but His Majesty loves the princess so much that he will definitely not agree to the princess's marriage." Xiang'er couldn't help but consoled her.

The girl smiled bitterly and said slowly: "Xiang'er, I am a princess, I can't just think about myself. Once the two countries go to war, countless soldiers and people will die tragically because of me. I can't be so selfish."

No one wants to leave their former residence, and the same goes for Gu Zijin.

But if her father did not want to fight with Mobei and sent her to Mobei for marriage, she would not have any complaints.

Because she is a princess and this is her responsibility.

"But, but, I heard that the environment in Mobei is very difficult. Princess, your body will definitely not be able to bear it."

Xiang'er's eyes suddenly became red and swollen, and tears fell from his eyes uncontrollably.

"I'm just a sick man. I probably don't have many years to live." Gu Zijin said with a smile.

Xiang'er quickly wiped away his tears and looked at the other person's face with a serious face, "Princess, don't talk nonsense, your body will definitely be cured in the future."
