Chapter 61 Why must I be a favorite concubine?
Zhao Miaomiao originally planned to stay in Yulan Palace for the rest of her life.
Just think that if I can get by for one day, it’s one day at a time; if I can get by for one year, it’s one year at a time.
The days passed quickly, in the blink of an eye.
But Du Wansheng came.
And he came to ask Wu Zhanjun to marry him!
Zhao Miaomiao heard the news.
The first thought was, Du Wansheng is crazy!
The second thought was that Du Wansheng should be fired!
Du Wansheng brought envoys to talk about making peace with the State of Wu and signing a truce agreement.
From then on, the Wu and Yu countries lived in harmony, ending a century of conflict.
Du Wansheng doesn't like fighting, and neither does Wu Zhanjun.
So both of them agreed to sign a truce and live in peace.
Therefore, Wu Zhanjun held a grand banquet in the evening to entertain Du Wansheng.
As a noble concubine, Zhao Miaomiao naturally had to attend.
Zhao Miaomiao sat on the lower left side closest to Wu Zhanjun, and the empress dowager sat on her right.
Du Wansheng sat opposite Zhao Miaomiao.
This location arrangement is really unique.
As soon as Zhao Miaomiao sat down, she could feel Du Wansheng opposite her staring at her.
That look in their eyes seemed like they were afraid that others didn’t know, as if they knew each other!
Wu Zhanjun was a little unhappy when he saw this, so he said, "By the way, not long ago, Concubine Su stayed at Yuguoxiao for a while. The Lord of Yuguo took great pains to take care of her."
Wu Zhanjun brought up this matter first to show that he didn't care about it at all.
Du Wansheng also said in a fake tone: "You're welcome. The imperial concubine and I get along well and have a good relationship. It's not hard."
Du Wansheng's words directly indicate that he and Zhao Miaomiao have a close relationship, which is very intriguing!
Zhao Miaomiao felt like she was in a Shura field.
Help!
What on earth are these two people doing!
One needs to be chopped, the other is brainless!
Stop talking!
Wu Zhanjun frowned and felt a little unhappy when he heard what Du Wansheng said.
Seeing this, Du Wansheng took the opportunity to say, "I just happened to come to Wu this time, and I have one more thing I hope the Emperor of Wu can agree to."
Wu Zhanjun: "You say."
Du Wansheng glanced at Zhao Miaomiao and said, "I would like to ask for Concubine Su to be my country's queen mother. This will serve as a symbol of friendship between our two countries. What do you think?"
When Du Wansheng said this, the whole audience was in an uproar.
Does this mean that the imperial concubine should go to Yu State to marry?
The Queen Mother was the first to speak: "Lord Yu, this is inappropriate. Concubine Su is our noble concubine, of noble status. How can she be sent away as a marriage alliance at will?"
Du Wansheng smiled and asked, "Is the position of the Queen Mother of Yu Kingdom not as important as a concubine of your Wu Kingdom?"
Concubine Shu laughed and came out to smooth things over, saying, "Prince Yu, you misunderstood. The Empress Dowager didn't mean that. It's just that the status and person of the Imperial Concubine are a little inappropriate.
Otherwise, how about you, Lord, pick a few girls of marriageable age from aristocratic families and bring them back?"
Concubine Shu was implying that Zhao Miaomiao was not a virgin and did not meet the criteria for a marriage alliance.
But Du Wansheng is more clear about this point.
Du Wansheng looked at Wu Zhanjun and said, "I believe that the Emperor Wu and I are both very clear about this."
Wu Zhanjun's brows furrowed tighter and tighter, and his expression became very ugly.
The two men confronted each other.
The atmosphere was very serious.
Zhao Miaomiao wished she could dig a hole in the ground and bury herself in it.
This person is dead, please burn some paper if you have any questions.
Don't look for me anymore!!
At this time, the Queen Mother cue her, "Concubine Su, what do you think about what the King of Yu said?"
Zhao Miaomiao: "Ah...I...what can I do? I'll just sit and watch."
The Queen Mother frowned, "That's not what I meant. I was asking about your attitude!"
"manner……"
Zhao Miaomiao glanced at Du Wansheng, then at Wu Zhanjun, and thought: What attitude can I have!
I don't want either!
Let them both go on their own!
The Queen Mother put all the pressure on Zhao Miaomiao.
Zhao Miaomiao was silent for a moment.
Qingqing saw it and came out to rescue Zhao Miaomiao.
"I remember that the Su family has more than one girl. The eldest daughter of the Su family is famous in the capital at a young age. She is talented and beautiful at a young age."
As she spoke, Qingqing turned her head and looked at Su Nan, who came with Prime Minister Su to the banquet.
Pointing at Su Nan, he said, "Miss Su, stand up and let the Lord of Yu see you."
Qingqing was ignorant and didn't know that Su Nan had met Du Wansheng in Yu Country a long time ago.
At this moment, Su Nan, who was sitting there, was so angry that his teeth were itching.
Su Nan thought: Why does Su Lan get all the good things?
Go to Yu State and you will get to know the King of Yu State!
Now two emperors are fighting for her, does she deserve it?
Du Wansheng heard Qingqing's words and waved his hand, saying, "No need. I only want Concubine Su, only her."
This made the atmosphere even uglier.
Wu Zhanjun sneered, then slowly walked down to Zhao Miaomiao, took Zhao Miaomiao's hand, and said, "This may not be possible. Concubine Su will soon become the Queen of Wu, and the enthronement ceremony is already being prepared."
Zhao Miaomiao: ???
Don’t!
Please, I just want to be a transparent person and live a good life!
What queen!
But Wu Zhanjun still pulled Zhao Miaomiao onto the stage in front of everyone.
Wu Zhanjun took Zhao Miaomiao's hand and said, "I originally wanted to pick a good day to announce it. However, from my perspective, today is also a good day. I am willing to work hand in hand with Su Lan of the Su family for the rest of my life to govern our Great Wu together."
Seeing this, everyone knelt down.
"Long live the emperor, long live the emperor, and a thousand years and a thousand years of the empress."
In the hall, everyone was kneeling.
Even the unconvinced Su Nan knelt down.
The Queen Mother also left her seat and leaned forward slightly.
Only Du Wansheng was standing there.
His eyes were slightly red as he stared at Zhao Miaomiao.
This is the third time, he has lost her for the third time!
Zhao Miaomiao couldn't bear to look at Du Wansheng's expression and turned her head slightly.
Oh, my damn charm that has nowhere to go.
Why is it that little boys like her so much?
No. 99; […Host, stop being so pedantic. However, Host, your protagonist halo is getting heavier and heavier, and it seems to be almost full.]
After the banquet, Wu Zhanjun asked Zhao Miaomiao to go back first, saying that he still had some political affairs to deal with.
It just so happened that Zhao Miaomiao didn't want to stay with Wu Zhanjun, so she said okay and left.
After Zhao Miaomiao left, Wu Zhanjun started coughing violently again, even more severely than before.
When Eunuch Gao saw this, he supported Wu Zhanjun with a distressed look and said, "Your Majesty, why didn't you let the Queen know about your physical condition?"
Wu Zhanjun waved his hand and said, "That's not necessary. I don't want her to worry. She just needs to stay by my side and be happy as before."
Zhao Miaomiao returned to Yulan Palace and went back to her room.
As soon as I pushed the door open, I was pulled away by someone in the darkness.
"ah!"
Zhao Miaomiao thought it was a killer arranged by the Queen Mother and subconsciously wanted to scream.
The man was quick to cover Zhao Miaomiao's mouth.
"Brother, it's me."
Oh, it’s Du Wansheng.
Zhao Miaomiao felt relieved, turned around and hit Du Wansheng on the head.
"What are you doing? You scared me to death! I thought there was an assassin."
Du Wansheng rubbed his head and asked, "Assassin? Why is there an assassin in the Wu Kingdom's palace?"
It's a complicated story.
Zhao Miaomiao didn't want Du Wansheng to be involved in more Wu affairs, so she waved her hand and said, "No, I was just scared. It's so dark, why don't you light a lamp?"
Zhao Miaomiao said she wanted to light the lamp, but Du Wansheng stopped her and said, "I have something to ask you."
Why is this atmosphere wrong again?
Where did the soft, cute, and easily bullied Du Wansheng go?!
Zhao Miaomiao pulled her hand out and found a seat away from Du Wansheng. "Just ask whatever you want to ask."
Du Ansheng asked: "Who are you? Are you Su Lan?"
Zhao Miaomiao: "Of course."
Du Wansheng: "Then when you met that woman in Yu Country last time, she said her name was Zhao Miaomiao. So who is Zhao Miaomiao?"
That's a pretty good memory.
Zhao Miaomiao: "...I just made that name up."
Du Wansheng added, "It doesn't matter if it's made up. Since Su Lan has married Wu Zhanjun and become the queen, is Zhao Miaomiao willing to come with me?"
Zhao Miaomiao: ………………
Oops, that's difficult.
Zhao Miaomiao was a little sad, but she still hardened her heart and said, "I don't want to. Zhao Miaomiao, she doesn't belong here. One day, she will leave.
Don't pretend Zhao Miaomiao never existed, and don't mention this name anymore."
After a long pause, Du Wansheng finally replied, "Okay. Then I won't bother the Queen."
Du Wansheng thought that her words meant that she chose to be Su Lan, she chose Wu Guo, and she chose Wu Zhanjun.
So I was so sad that I decided to give up.
Not long after, Du Wansheng set off to leave the State of Wu, and this time he decided not to look back.
