Chapter 471 What is supposed to come finally comes
When Asheng and his party arrived at the Beiliao military camp, they were holding the Fire God Festival. The sacrificial ceremony had just ended, and they were just in time to start the feast.
Seeing this, the military advisor hurriedly ushered Asheng to the table and said with a smile, "Princess, this is the reception banquet specially prepared for you by the king. We will wait for the princess to arrive and start the banquet."
Such a sumptuous banquet and such a grand ceremony made Ah Sheng's eyes well up. Thinking of the cold reception he received in the north, he felt more and more that Mu Zheng treated him really well.
The sharp-eyed military advisor hurried over and whispered a few words in front of Mu Zheng.
At this time, Ah Sheng also walked towards Mu Zheng, then sat down directly next to him, picked up the wine bowl boldly, and the silver bell on his arm made a clear and sweet sound, "Mu Zheng, I respect you."
Mu Zheng glanced at the look given by the military advisor, smiled at Ah Sheng, leaned forward, held the bowl in which Ah Sheng was holding the wine with one hand, lowered his head and drank directly.
Toasting turned into drinking.
Mo Ru took a breath of cold air the moment Mu Zheng took advantage of it, wondering if they could leave Beiliao alive if the poisonous snake bit Mu Zheng to death.
As a result, Ah Sheng not only did not release the poisonous snake, but was not even angry. His big watery eyes blinked a few times, and then he lowered his head with a shy face.
The drums started to sound, the dancers performed graceful dances, and the atmosphere suddenly became lively.
Ah Sheng happily went up and danced a southern Xinjiang dance. The sound of silver bells almost took away Mu Zheng's soul.
Halfway through the banquet, Ah Sheng supported his dizzy head with his hands and looked at Mu Zheng with crooked eyebrows, "When the snow melts, you can take me to ride a horse."
"Okay." Mu Zheng responded with a smile. Unexpectedly, a delicate red lotus appeared on his hand. He raised his hand and inserted it into Ah Sheng's temple. His tone was gentler than ever before, "A Sheng, I like you. marry me."
Ah Sheng lowered her head, her red cheeks reflected in the wine bowl, which were more beautiful than the red lotus on her head.
With a "pop", Asheng stood up, hugged Mu Zheng, kissed him on the face, then covered his face with his hands and ran into the tent.
It was done, and the military advisor took the lead in cheering.
The soldiers raised their glasses to congratulate Mu Zheng.
Mo Ru, one head and two big, clenched his fists tightly, and finally took a deep breath and said: "Your Majesty, I'm afraid the princess is drunk. I'll go and take a look."
Mo Ru bowed his hands and was about to lift his feet to walk, when his arms were blocked in front of him.
"Lord Mo, can we have a good discussion about the marriage this time?" Mu Zheng was not as drunk as before, and he spoke gloomily with a pair of stern eyes.
Mo Ru felt a thump in his heart, finally revealing his true colors.
"Princess A Sheng is the most beloved daughter of the King of Southern Xinjiang. Anyone who dares to bully her is the enemy of the entire Southern Xinjiang." Mo Ru's words were respectful and threatening.
As soon as he finished speaking, the military advisor came forward with a smile and persuaded her, "What did Master Mo say? Who marries just to bully others? It's not too late for our king to love the princess."
Mu Zheng adjusted his robes and said with a serious face: "As the king of Northern Liao, I will marry Princess Asheng. The marriage between the two clans will be a golden book. I will not lack any courtesy and will not wrong the princess in the slightest. "
When it came to this matter, he had no choice but to refuse. He had no choice but to bite the bullet and said, "I will write a letter to the King of Southern Xinjiang for instructions."
In the Governor's Mansion, it was late at night but still brightly lit. When Shen Ruzhou came to the study, Beixiu Yan was writing a memorial.
"How are things going?" Beixiu Yan looked up, his face calm, but the worry in his eyes immediately dissipated the moment he saw Shen Ruzhou back safely.
"Everything went well." Shen Ruzhou raised his eyebrows, picked up the tea and took a sip.
"The drama is well done. Beiliao will never doubt the authenticity of this military defense map."
Bei Xiuyan stood up and glanced outside, "Where's Ruohan?"
"She is talking to Hong Xi. She will return home later." Thinking of Xiao Ruohan and Hong Xi's affectionate look, Shen Ruzhou couldn't help but blush.
Hearing this, Bei Xiuyan frowned slightly and said in an unhappy tone: "How can I have so much to say."
After hearing this, Shen Ruzhou smiled and said kindly, "Your Majesty, you can't bear to part with your sister? But if you are a female college student, she will get married sooner or later."
Since the onset of illness that day, when Xiao Ruohan worriedly called Bei Xiuyan brother, their relationship as brother and sister was no longer a secret to Shen Ruzhou.
Bei Xiuyan walked to the window and stood with his hands behind his hands, "I have been separated for so many years and it is not easy to find her. I originally wanted to stay with you and take good care of her, but it seems that I can't keep you."
After saying that, Beixiu Yan raised his head and glanced at the dark night, and sighed helplessly, "Please advise Ruohan to go out less often these days."
After all, Xiao Ruohan's official identity is Beixiu Yan's concubine. She runs out every two days. Sooner or later, she can't hide it.
Shen Ruzhou thought of this and came up with an idea: "Why don't you keep Hong Xi as a bodyguard? This will make it easier for them to meet and we can help cover it up."
"Hong Xi's status does not allow him to be a bodyguard." Beixiu Yan took the tea lid and scraped off the floating leaves on it, and the hot air covered the look on his face.
In fact, Shen Ruzhou had long felt that Hong Xi was not simple. She even vaguely felt that Hong Xi's identity was related to Beixiu Yan's secret visit to the north. But she didn't ask any more questions. There were too many doubts in her mind, such as why Beixiu Yan was separated from her sister when she was young, and why she didn't dare to admit it now that she had found her, and she had to use her identity as a concubine to cover it up.
She once tried to explore the secret of Beixiu Yan, and she also expressed tactfully that if he wanted to rebel in the future, she would follow him to the death. But Beixiuyan kept silent about everything and avoided talking about it.
Maybe she still didn't deserve to know those things. Shen Ruzhou's eyebrows were lowered and his expression was very lonely.
Bei Xiuyan guessed what Shen Ruzhou didn't ask, looked at her intently, and solemnly said as if making a promise: "Ruzhou, there are some things that are inconvenient to tell you now. When the time is right, I will tell you the truth. "
He was willing to tell her his deepest secret at the right time. Thinking of this, a warm current suddenly flowed through Shen Ruzhou's heart.
At this time, the soldier reported outside, "Your Majesty, an urgent secret message has been sent from Beijing."
Bei Xiuyan took it, opened it and took a quick glance, his expression became solemn.
"What happened?" Shen Ruzhou asked curiously.
"It's expected." Bei Xiuyan said lightly and handed the secret letter to Shen Ruzhou.
The letter was written by Lu Huaining, and the content was very simple: Master, King Wu Cheng used Aunt You as a witness and the medical records as physical evidence to expose the queen's murder of the late queen. The emperor was furious and deposed the queen. King Yu jumped over the wall and sent someone to assassinate King Wu Cheng. The assassin was caught on the spot by King Wu Cheng and escorted to the imperial court. King Wu Cheng handed over all the evidence against King Yu that he had collected over the years to the emperor. The emperor fainted and woke up. Later, an edict was issued to demote the king as a commoner and establish King Wucheng as the crown prince.
After Shen Ruzhou read it, his face turned pale. The process of establishing the crown prince was almost exactly the same as in his previous life.
After all, it should come.
