Chapter 395 The Crown Prince's Wedding
Upon hearing this, the Emperor of Nanqi raised his lips and smiled.
"I think it is appropriate to give this matter to your cousin Tao'er. As a prince, his status here is enough to reflect the sincerity of Nanqi. And your sister Mei'er's death, Beiling must give me an explanation."
Baili Yunhe saw the ambition hidden in the eyes of the Emperor of Nanqi.
After all, he had been in contact with this person in front of him for two lifetimes, and Baili Yunhe knew the Emperor of Nanqi very well.
Ambitious, cautious, suspicious and fickle.
It is a very difficult character to get along with.
He was so careful and cautious in his previous life, but it took him many years to get the power of Nanqi.
In this life, even though I have seized the initiative, I am not necessarily able to defeat the insidiousness and cunningness of the man in front of me.
Baili Yunhe narrowed his eyes: "Mei'er assassinated the crown prince, this has been confirmed by Beiling, what else does your Majesty want to explain?"
Upon hearing Baili Yunhe's words, Emperor Nanqi's eyes turned cold in an instant: "I don't believe it."
Emperor Nanqi narrowed his eyes, which were as deep as the abyss, took a sip of wine and continued: "Even if Princess Zhaoyue did something, she should have asked for my opinion before making any move. Beiling avoided me and executed Mei'er, which is a slap in my face, what do you think?"
Baili Yunhe lowered his eyes, "Your Majesty is right."
Seeing that Baili Yunhe obeyed his wishes, Emperor Nanqi couldn't help but smile, and even raised his hand to pat Baili Yunhe on the shoulder.
There was a narrow table between the two of them, and the Emperor of Nanqi could touch Baili Yunhe by leaning forward slightly.
The big hand just patted his shoulder and then retracted immediately. The Emperor of Nanqi said meaningfully: "I know you are still in contact with the An family of Beiling State, and the letters are one after another. But I understand you, you must be unable to let go of the family you used to live with. If the Nanqi State breaks through Beiling in the future, I promise you not to touch them."
Baili Yunhe raised his eyes, "Thank you for your grace, father."
"You are my son, and I have been looking for you for so many years. In the future, the throne will also be yours. As my only heir, if father is not good to you, is he good to outsiders?"
These words sounded very heartwarming. In the previous life, Baili Yunhe was once moved by these words.
The highest level of lying is when there are 90% truth and 10% falsehood in one sentence.
He has been back to Southern Qi for almost a year, but the Emperor of Southern Qi never let him touch anything related to power. All he has to do every day is to study with the Grand Tutor, and the Emperor of Southern Qi will personally test him every once in a while. He
is like a father who fulfills his duties.
"Yunhe knows."
The Emperor of Southern Qi was silent for a moment, as if he was unable to speak. He tapped his fingers lightly on his legs, as if thinking about some important decision.
"Yunhe, you are still immature now, and I have decided to choose a crown princess for you. I wonder if there is a woman you like? Tell me, and I will personally help you to mediate."
Baili Yunhe's expression was obviously stiff for a moment.
He had no interest in love between men and women. After living again, he had become more open-minded.
"Father, I haven't..."
"Don't refuse Father. You are doing this for your own good. If you don't have a woman you like, I will choose a princess for you. What do you think of Lin Xiaoxiao, the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion?"
He seemed to have been prepared and took out a portrait from below.
Baili Yunhe narrowed his eyes and recognized the woman, but he didn't have a deep impression of her.
He was about to refuse, but Emperor Nanqi smiled and said, "As long as you get married, I will let you handle some important matters, so that you can gradually become familiar with what a crown prince should do. I am already in my forties, and my health is getting worse year by year. It's time to relax and leave the trivial matters to young people like you."
Baili Yunhe understood the meaning of his father's words.
As long as he agreed to get married, he would give him power.
Baili Yunhe's eyes gradually became dark and deep. He pondered for a long time, suddenly stood up and saluted to Emperor Nanqi.
"Okay."
Hearing that he suddenly agreed to his request, Emperor Nanqi's expression showed surprise and joy.
"Yunhe, did you really agree?"
Baili Yunhe raised his eyes, his eyebrows were cold.
"Your Majesty, please make the decision. I know that Your Majesty is doing this for your own good."
"Okay, okay, I'll let someone arrange it. The wedding should be held sooner rather than later. One month from now, we'll have the wedding!"
The Southern Qi Emperor was overjoyed to get the answer he wanted, and all his anger was instantly swept away.
Then he remembered something and called the Grand Eunuch over: "Pass the order down. The Crown Prince will get married in one month. During this period, any major events will be postponed, including Baili Tao's mission to the First Emperor of Southern Qi. Everything will be done after the Crown Prince's wedding!"
Seeing that the Emperor's eyes were extremely stern and serious, the Grand Eunuch quickly notified the matter. The
Southern Qi Emperor stood up from his chair, paced back and forth in thought for a moment, then smiled and raised his head to look at Baili Yunhe.
"Yunhe, you should also inform Beiling of your upcoming wedding. If your relatives want to attend your wedding banquet, I will also welcome them very much."
Baili Yunhe raised his eyes and stared into the smiling eyes of Emperor Nanqi.
Suddenly, he seemed to understand something.
Emperor Nanqi did not allow Baili Tao to go as an envoy to Beiling because he knew that even if he sent him, he would not achieve his goal at all. He wanted to arrange the main field on his side.
He intended to lure Beiling to arrange an envoy to come and then question him.
Baili Yunhe's lips curled up slightly, and his eyes were darker than those of the Southern Qi Emperor. He slowly opened his lips and said, "Definitely."
As long as the Southern Qi Emperor is willing to give up power, it's hard to say who will be the final winner.
At the same time, Ling Fengxun and An Yunxi received a letter from Mobei.
Uncle Du Pingjiang sent a message from Mobei saying that the King of Mobei agreed to form an alliance with Beiling.
If a war is about to start, troops will be arranged to support Beiling.
The letter detailed the process after the interview between An Guohou and the King of Mobei. Knowing that Sang Luo was here, the King of Mobei was very worried about his son's situation.
He even sent people to deliver a lot of good things, hoping that his son could live a better life in Beiling Kingdom. As for Sangge's death, the other party did not even mention it.
This time the negotiations went very smoothly, and Mobei showed enough sincerity.
An Yunxi and Ling Fengxun were relieved. She just turned to the second page of the letter and suddenly saw a familiar name.
"Mo Qiao?"
Ling Fengxun obviously heard An Yunxi's mumbling.
The regent, who had a good memory, recalled for a long time before remembering who this person was: "The woman your eldest brother likes? What happened to her?"
