Feng Yu Heng had received Yao Shu's secret letter before and naturally understood what this person meant by cooperation, but Xuan Tiange was present now, how should she discuss this deal with the other party? Even though she could tell that Xuan Tiange probably knew this person long ago and had some friendship, this did not mean that she was willing to use Xuan Tiange's lifetime happiness as an exchange, even if it was in exchange for Emperor Tianwu's safety, even if it was in exchange for Dashun's country's tomorrow, she was not willing.
"No rush." She smiled faintly, "I am just a woman, if the Gu Shu ruler wants to discuss cooperation, he should discuss it with His Ninth Highness. Currently, he has not returned from court, why don't you wait, it will not be too late to discuss it after he returns. Right now, I am very curious, how did the ruler and our Princess Wuyang get to know each other? I don't think you met each other on the way, right? "
Xuan Tiange explained anxiously: "We met each other on the way, he stood on the second floor of the teahouse and hit my coachman with a date stone, he even hit me." After saying that, she showed the back of her hand that was hit to Feng Yu Heng to take a look, but when she did this, she also thought of the scene where that person rubbed her gently in the teahouse, she could not help but blush and quickly retracted her hand.
But the Gu Shu ruler laughed loudly, looking at Xuan Tiange with a doting expression. He told Feng Yu Heng: "In the past, Your Highness the Princess went to Da Mo to attend the wedding of Princess and the Ninth Prince, This Monarch happened to be heavily injured at that time, and it was Your Highness the Princess who saved This Monarch. Coming to Dashun this time is to thank Your Highness the Princess in person. "
Feng Yu Heng looked at the two with a smile, suddenly feeling that if this marriage was really successful, Xuan Tiange marrying this ruler did not seem to be a bad thing. This man was handsome! He even had an exotic charm, speaking from her heart, Xuan Tiange's looks could not compare to him. Her gossipy nature rose again, and she actually asked: "What is your name? Are you in your twenties this year? " How was this like the conversation between Princess Dashun and the Gu Shu ruler, the tone was not formal at all, it was like a normal person chatting casually.
When Xuan Tiange heard Feng Yu Heng suddenly say this, she was completely dazed.
But the Gu Shu ruler was not confused, he could even understand what Feng Yu Heng meant. After all, it was normal for one to understand the man's situation before marrying a girl. Thus, he introduced himself: "My name is Fan Tianli, twenty-six years old this year. I ascended the throne of Gu Shu a few months ago and have yet to appoint an Empress. There are only three beauties in the inner palace, and they are concubines from the previous royal palace. To this day, there are no children. It's because Gu Shu has a rule that if one wants to be the ruler, their first child must be born of the empress. In the future, they will be the crown prince to avoid future struggles for the throne. "
"Oh." Feng Yu Heng nodded, saying again: "But you are also not the first child of Gu Shu's previous ruler, but you also obtained the throne, how should this be explained?"
"That is because the crown prince passed away from illness many years ago, and the empress hurt her body after giving birth to the crown prince and did not have any children, that was why Gu Shu had a struggle for the throne. And when I was heavily injured previously, I was saved by Your Highness the Princess. That time, it was because an accident happened during the struggle for the throne. "
"But I still succeeded in the end, so everything was worth it, isn't it?" Feng Yu Heng looked at him with a smile, but shook her head slowly, saying again: "It's a pity, there are still three beauties in the inner palace. Just from this point alone, I feel that it is not very suitable!"
Fan Tianli frowned, "It's normal for a ruler to have three palaces and six courtyards. Even in the royal palace in the past, I only had three concubines in my palace, and that was the least among all the brothers. Why does Princess say that it is not very suitable? "
Feng Yu Heng spread her hands, "Dashun's Ninth Prince is also a prince, and also a royal highness, but before his wedding, he did not have a single concubine in his palace."
Fan Tianli smiled bitterly, "If Princess makes this comparison, then on this point, This Monarch has indeed lost to His Highness Prince Yu. It's just that I don't know if His Highness Prince Yu will inherit the throne in the future, can the inner palace still be maintained with only Princess Consort? "
"What are you talking about?" Xuan Tiange was confused from hearing this, why was the number of wives involved? How many women did the Gu Shu ruler have, what did it have to do with Feng Yu Heng?
"We are talking about a very serious matter." Fan Tianli said to Xuan Tiange, "Royal Consort Yu seems to be dissatisfied with This Monarch having three beauties in the inner palace, but this is fine, as long as the matter is successful, those three beauties will be dealt with freely by the person in the empress position. Whether to keep them, kill them, or banish them to the cold palace, isn't it up to the Empress to decide? Royal Consort Yu, what do you think? "
Feng Yu Heng thought about it, it was indeed the case, and nodded, "That's true, if she cannot even handle such a small matter, her position as the empress will not be stable. But in the end, this is still a matter for the future, right now, I want to hear, what is the Gu Shu ruler's condition for the exchange? "
Fan Tianli did not keep them in suspense, looking at Feng Yu Heng, he said two words very seriously — — "A Gu battle."
"A Gu battle?" The two spoke at the same time to express their doubts, Feng Yu Heng asked again: "Why do you say this?"
Fan Tianli said: "I will not hide it from the two of you, as a vassal state of Dashun, Gu Shu naturally has to understand more about Dashun's situation, it is impossible for them to know nothing about the main state, that would be too passive. Moreover, This Monarch is a new ruler, his vitality was greatly damaged in the battle for the throne, and is even more anxious to obtain Dashun's protection. It's just that the distance between Dashun and Gu Shu is far, even if we obtain some information, by the time we send it back to Gu Shu, that information might have already lost its effectiveness. "He spoke rather helplessly, but it was also very stern. Although it was an act of investigating the other party's situation, this was no longer a secret between countries, it was almost an open act, it was nothing more than seeing who could find the other party's spy. "The Emperor of Dashun's temperament has changed greatly, it is said that he only listens to Consort Yuanshu and the Eighth Prince. And Consort Yuanshu's maternal family, the Liu family, has very close relations with a century-old Gu clan in Gu Shu, just based on this point, the secret behind the Emperor of Dashun's drastic change in temperament is not hard to guess. "
His words caused Feng Yu Heng and Xuan Tiange to fall silent. At this moment, Xuan Tiange no longer had any doubts about this person's identity as the ruler of Gu Shu, it was not that she trusted that person, she only trusted Feng Yu Heng. Feng Yu Heng had never looked at people before, since she said so, then it must be so. Although she did not really understand the matter of how many concubines he had in the imperial harem, when it came to Emperor Tianwu now, she really took it seriously.
"You mean, that Gu clan that is close to the Liu family, you have the ability to punish them?" Xuan Tiange asked the other party, "Helping Uncle Emperor recover his consciousness, helping my Ninth Brother and Ninth Sister-in-law drag that Eighth Brother down, as the ruler of Gu Shu, what is the purpose of doing all of this?"
In the end, she was Dashun's princess, no matter how carefree Xuan Tiange usually was, she could analyse that something was not right at this moment. There was no love without a reason in this world, no one would treat you well for no reason, once the other party threw a huge benefit and temptation at you, the first thing to consider was what the other party wanted to exchange for through this action.
She looked at that Fan Tianli and suddenly thought of something, "When Dashun attacked Gu Shu, they took down a few cities, now that you are here to discuss conditions, your goal shouldn't be to ask for those few cities back, right? Those are cities that Dashun's soldiers took down with their own bodies, moreover, you Gu Shu people formed an alliance with the Eighth Brother first, if you want to use this to exchange for cities, I'm afraid that you have made a wrong decision. No matter who ascends the throne in Dashun, that person is Uncle Emperor's son, and if your Gu Shu wants to take back the cities, send troops to attack if you have the ability, but you should not use this kind of method. Especially when you, the ruler of a country, are here to discuss this personally, it really is the biggest joke in the world. "
When Xuan Tiange spoke, her expression was stern, it was already a discussion between officials, it was no longer the joking atmosphere from before.
Seeing her like this, Fan Tianli suddenly imagined that when this girl in front of him ascended the throne of his Gu Shu's Empress one day, she would also use this kind of cold expression to handle official matters, that should be a very frightening danger, it was not something that a girl in a small country like Gu Shu could compare to. Princess Dashun's aura was there, it could not be ignored.
He suddenly smiled in satisfaction, even nodding his head, there was a deeper meaning behind it.
Xuan Tiange did not understand what he meant, but Feng Yu Heng could guess a little, sighing internally, this marriage was most likely going to succeed, just based on the fact that Xuan Tiange did not show any true dislike towards this person, there should be a chance. It was just that, if it was purely romantic feelings, she would be very happy to see Xuan Tiange steal the heart of the Gu Shu ruler, but now that there were other factors mixed in, it was no longer as pure, thinking about it, there was still some resistance.
"Your Highness the Princess has misunderstood, my Gu Shu does not want cities." Fan Tianli said: "The battle for cities is a battle of strength, Dashun has the ability to enter the desert and take down Gu Shu's cities, that is Dashun's might. Just like what Your Highness the Princess said, if This Monarch wants to take back the cities, This Monarch will definitely send out troops and fight Dashun openly on the battlefield, and will not use this kind of method. But This Monarch has said it before, a new ruler does not like to start wars, what I want is for Gu Shu to develop steadily, and not to expand its territory. And the reason why I proposed this cooperation with the Ninth Prince and his wife, is because … … "
"I will naturally talk to His Ninth Highness about this matter, if Gu Shu ruler has nothing else to do today, please return first!" Feng Yu Heng suddenly gave the order to chase the guest away at this moment, she said: "I will still say the same thing, political matters should be discussed between men, moreover, we still want to consider the ruler's abilities before continuing the discussion. Ruler can return first and come back tomorrow night, His Ninth Highness will naturally give you an answer. "
Fan Tianli expressed his agreement with Feng Yu Heng's arrangement, after all, this was a serious matter, he could not just talk to a girl for a while and settle it like this. Even if this girl was Royal Consort Yu, it was still a little too rash.
He stood up and bowed slightly towards Feng Yu Heng, Feng Yu Heng also stood up to return the greeting, then heard Fan Tianli say: "Then This Monarch will return first, we will meet again tomorrow night." After saying that, he looked towards Xuan Tiange, asking: "Are we leaving together?"
Xuan Tiange rolled her eyes at him, "No, This Princess wants to stay in Imperial Palace Yu for a few more hours. That's right, remember to take those things away from Wen Xuan Palace, I will not want them. "
"How is it possible to take back things that have been given out?" Fan Tianli smiled bitterly, "If Your Highness the Princess does not like them, just throw them away, This Monarch will find some new and interesting things to send to you later."
"I will not want anything!" Xuan Tiange glared at the other party, "Do you not understand? I just don't want your things, no matter if they are good or bad. If you really want to be grateful, just return me 20 taels of silver, at most, it will be the cost of finding a doctor for you, I don't want anything else. Do you understand? Alright, you can go back! "She waved her hand, putting on her Princess posture again," Leave quickly, leave quickly! This Princess feels vexed just looking at you. "
Fan Tianli bowed again and did not say anything, silently leaving the main hall, leaving Imperial Palace Yu under the guidance of the servants. And at this moment, Xuan Tiange said something to Feng Yu Heng, she said — — "Heng Heng, you don't have to hide it from me, I can guess what that person wants to cooperate with … …"
