Of course, the reason why Imperial Concubine Yuan Gui could not be touched for now was because of her relationship with that Gu Master. Feng Yu Heng could not confirm if Imperial Concubine Yuan Gui's death would anger that Gu Master.
She returned to Imperial Palace Yu, but was a little dazed. Xuan Tianming listened to her talk about the news she saw and heard in the palace, and did not know what to do for a moment.
Death Heart Gu, this was really a Gu technique that made people give up! Life was not right, death was not right, could it be, for Dashun's empire, he really did not care about Emperor Tianwu's life? That old guy, he and Consort Yun called him that behind his back, but the words "old guy" did not mean disrespect, it implied a kind of closeness. Now, the old guy was controlled by someone using Death Heart Gu, Xuan Tianming thought, for Dashun's empire, in the end, he would have to make a cruel choice. However, he didn't know if his brothers could understand his difficulties.
The husband and wife looked at each other, and for more than two hours, they did not say a word.
However, at the end of the road, there was a glimmer of hope. Just as they were about to give up in front of Death Heart Gu, Huang Quan came in to report: "Yao family's eldest brother-in-law is here, he said he has something to discuss with Prince and Princess."
Yao family's eldest brother-in-law was naturally Feng Yu Heng's eldest uncle, Yao Jingjun. The Yao family had always kept a low profile, although they were close relatives, other than Hundred Herb Hall and school matters that required Feng Yu Heng to handle, they rarely visited Feng Yu Heng. Especially the three uncles who were the elders, they knew how to avoid suspicion. They did not want Imperial Palace Yu to feel that Feng Yu Heng married in, so the Yao family also went up to curry favour, afraid that this would not be good for Feng Yu Heng, and would leave a bad impression on the people of Imperial Palace Yu towards the Yao family and Feng Yu Heng.
Therefore, for a long time, the Yu Palace rarely received visits from the Yao family. But today, Yao Jingjun had come in person, and it was even on the second day of the New Year. Feng Yu Heng's intuition told her that her uncle was definitely not here to pay a New Year's visit.
She suddenly had a bad premonition and stood up. With a very bad expression, she asked Xuan Tian Ming: "It shouldn't be that something happened to grandfather, right?"
Yao Xian was getting older with each passing year. Although he had the soul of a later generation supporting him, the body belonged to the original owner of the body. At this age, there was no guarantee that he would fall ill one day. What she was most afraid of was Yao Xian falling ill.
Xuan Tianming hurriedly held her hand. He felt that this girl's small hand was cold. She was obviously frightened. He comforted her, "Don't worry, nothing will happen. Didn't we just see Grandpa before the New Year? The old man's body is still healthy. "
At this time, Huang Quan also realized that Feng Yu Heng had thought of something bad. He hurriedly said, "Young Miss, you're mistaken. Yao Family's uncle was wearing a new silver robe with a red border. Although he said that he had something important to see the Masters, his face was full of joy. He even exchanged a New Year's greeting with Lady Zhou. Just based on his condition, it doesn't seem like something happened to Divine Doctor Yao! "
When Feng Yu Heng heard this, her heart finally relaxed. She then said to Huang Quan, "Since Eldest Uncle is here, there must be something. Invite him to this courtyard. It's in the main hall."
Very quickly, Feng Yu Heng and Xuan Tianming met Yao Jingjun in the main hall. Yao Jingjun first bowed to the two, but was stopped by the two. Then, the other party didn't exchange any greetings and directly handed over a letter. He then said, "This is a letter that Yao Shu sent back from the South. When the Yao Family received it, the seal had already been opened. It was obvious that it had been read by someone on the way. But this letter looks like an ordinary letter on the surface, which was why it was sent to the Yao Residence in the end. But look at this — "He opened the letter and pointed to a few words at the end for them to see." This is a method that we discussed before Yao Shu left. Once it's not convenient to say the news directly in the letter, we'll drag a few styles of tail when writing the last line of words. And this kind of tail with a hook is the secret signal that we agreed to immediately send to you after seeing the letter. "
When Feng Yu Heng heard this, she immediately remembered that she had once given Yao Shu a kind of pen. It was a very common item in the future. The pen was filled with a special kind of ink, and the words written would disappear within a few minutes. If one wanted to see it again, they would have to use another kind of medicine mixed in with the candlelight and gently roast it.
She had also seen that kind of thing for Xuan Tianming. Now that she heard Yao Jingjun say this, she immediately thought that Yao Shu must have used that pen to write a secret letter to her. But because he was afraid of being robbed, he disguised it as a letter and sent it to the Yao Residence.
She took the letter from Yao Jingjun's hands and then walked to the table. She had the servants prepare a candle and then walked to an antique shelf. She pretended to fiddle with a box, but in reality, she was taking out the medicine from her space. When Feng Yu Heng dripped the medicine onto the candlelight and lit the candle, she placed the letter on the back of the letter in front of the two people. Then, she controlled the distance between the letter and the candle and slowly roasted it. Soon, words appeared on the back of the originally blank letter.
Yao Jingjun was shocked. Very quickly, this shock was attracted by the contents of the letter. Yao Shu said, the Gu Shu ruler proposed a political marriage with Dashun, asking to marry Dashun's only princess, Xuan Tiange!
Feng Yu Heng and Xuan Tianming were also a little dazed. A political marriage between two countries was a common thing, but as a defeated country, ceding land and paying reparations, what right did Gu Shu have to ask to marry Dashun's noble princess?
Very quickly, the answer was given in the second half of the letter. The reason why they dared to ask to marry the princess was because the Gu Shu ruler had his own backing. He directly pointed out that Dashun had a concubine whose family had close relations with a thousand year old Gu clan in Gu Shu. That concubine's family was surnamed Liu. He could confirm that Dashun's Eighth Prince would not let go of such a good opportunity, and once Dashun met with an irreversible crisis related to Gu techniques, he could personally save him. And the reason why he had this confidence was because so what if it was a thousand year old Gu clan? He was Gu Shu's imperial family, the most poisonous Gu techniques in the world were all in the imperial family's hands!
As soon as he said this, everyone immediately understood what was going on. And as a member of the Yao family, Yao Jingjun had some understanding of this matter. He immediately said: "The one surnamed Liu … … Isn't the one surnamed Liu Imperial Concubine Yuan Gui's family? The Gu Shu ruler means … … "
"It means that he can resolve Dashun's current crisis," Feng Yu Heng breathed a sigh of relief, but immediately sighed again. She breathed a sigh of relief because with the help of the Gu Shu ruler, the Gu in Emperor Tianwu's body could most likely be cured. Although the death heart Gu could not be cured in her opinion, the Gu Shu ruler was right. Since the Gu came from the desert in the south, then it was obvious that the most skilled Gu user was in the imperial family, and the Gu Shu ruler was most likely the number one Gu Master in the world. And that sigh was because of the Gu Shu ruler's condition.
Asking for Xuan Tiange's hand in marriage! Could it be that curing the old Emperor's illness would involve Xuan Tiange's entire life? She asked Xuan Tianming.
: "I've seen Gu Shu's Seventh Princess, and I've also seen a prince. They're already so old, how old is the ruler? He should be about the same age as Father Emperor, right? Is he crazy? Using that age to ask for Tiange's hand in marriage? "
Xuan Tianming also frowned and pondered, not speaking for a long time. Instead, it was Yao Jingjun who spoke: "That's not it! Gu Shu's old ruler is already dead, the throne was passed down, the one on the throne now is a new ruler, and it is said that he is not even twenty-five years old. "
"Hm?" Feng Yu Heng was stunned, "When did this happen?"
Yao Jingjun pointed at the letter in her hands, saying: "It was written in this letter, you did not read the contents in front, so you are not clear."
She hurriedly read the contents in front, other than greeting the Yao family, Yao Shu did talk about some gossip about Gu Shu, and did mention that there was a new ruler there, and it was the old ruler's fifth son.
"This age is not a problem, but …" She looked at Xuan Tianming again, "But is this considered a transaction marriage? Using Tiange's happiness to make a transaction, I am not willing to accept it. "
"Don't think so much first." Xuan Tianming said, "Think of a way to meet the Gu Shu ruler, then we can study the subsequent matters, at least we need to know if he can cure the Gu in the old man. As for Tiange's side, with her personality, if she knew about this, she would definitely do it for the old man, for the country and for the world. And this, is also a duty that a child of the imperial family must bear. Political marriage, even if it is not Gu Shu, there are still other places, the chances of Tiange marrying a normal person is really too small. If there is no current matter, Gu Shu's new ruler asking for a marriage, this is not surprising. But this matter is placed in front of us, and the other party has also mentioned it clearly, like what you said, there is a transaction, I am also unwilling to accept it. "
He analysed the matter, and Feng Yu Heng had to admit, with Xuan Tiange's status, it was really too difficult for her to marry a normal person, and this was also the reason why she had not been betrothed even though she had passed the marriageable age. Dashun was keeping this one and only princess, waiting for the right price to sell!
"In the face of a national crisis, Princess should think for the country and the world." After a while, Yao Jingjun expressed his thoughts, "It is not that I am hard-hearted, and it is not that I do not feel sorry for Princess Wuyang, but from the standpoint of a subject, from the standpoint of the citizens of Dashun, the people of the imperial family have the duty to protect the stability of the world, and give the citizens a good government. I do not think that Dashun will be any better after the Eighth Prince inherits the throne, he is not a good Emperor with good intentions, and is not an Emperor who can serve the people wholeheartedly, if Dashun lands in the hands of this kind of person, the country will no longer be a country. "
Yao Shu's words made Feng Yu Heng understand, on this matter, a choice had to be made. Do they want Xuan Tiange's happiness alone, or the stability of the world? This was a difficult problem.
"Think of a way to meet the Gu Shu ruler first." In the end, Xuan Tianming made the decision, telling Yao Jingjun: "Uncle, send a letter home to Yao Shu normally, as for the other secret letters, I will have other arrangements."
After the few of them finished discussing, they went their separate ways. Yao Jingjun's letter home was just a cover-up, the real secret letter was sent by Xuan Tianming using the goshawk that could fly into the clouds that he had secretly nurtured.
That letter was sent directly to the Gu Shu ruler, the specially nurtured goshawk could ensure that no divine archers could shoot it down from the sky. Of course, other than the kind of handgun that Feng Yu Heng used.
There was only one sentence in the letter: Gu Shu's new ruler has ascended the throne, it is time to personally pay tribute to the country Dashun!
