This matter really cannot be decided in one or two sentences. I am afraid that the voices in the DPRK will not be unified for a while.

The fourth princess was playing with bird food and feeding the parrot hanging in the room, when she heard a report from outside, "The empress is here."

Is the mother-in-law here?

The fourth princess grabbed a handful of melon seeds and put them in the trough, then clapped her hands and went to greet her mother and concubine.

As soon as Concubine Xiao came in, she dismissed everyone who was serving her, "Xiaosi, have you heard? The imperial court is planning a marriage."

Marriage? With the Khitan?

Well! Concubine Xiao pulled her daughter and sat down, "Think about it, who can be used for this marriage? The third princess? This is impossible! Your father feels that he owes your uncle, and he will never use the third princess for the marriage. The Lin family

That girl? That's even more impossible. Where is the Duke of Yi's house? Your Uncle Lin only has this baby, how could he choose her? Or else, that girl Defeng? This is the most impossible.

Well, the Taizu and the Queen Mother only have a little blood, how can they marry far away? So I said, this must be between you and Xiaowu."

The fourth princess was frightened by what she said, and asked, "What do you mean?"

"I heard that the eldest son of the Marquis Chengen's Mansion only has one son. It is the most honest duty! If not, go and beg the Queen..."

What is this idea? But the marriage to the Marquis of Chengen is not over, right? The eldest brother just divorced the girl from the Wu family, and now he is eyeing her son again?

The fourth princess kept spinning the cup in her hand, and then shook her head, "Don't come up with blind ideas, and don't let the wind and rain come. I'll ask about this matter..."

But where can I go to find out?

She left the palace, went to the Lin family, and asked Lin San: "Have you heard about the marriage?" Lin Yutong heard about it, "Don't worry, it won't happen for the time being."

Why?

"It's during the filial piety period!" Lin Yutong said, "Uncle Huang only needs to postpone the discussion of the matter on the grounds of filial piety! How many years of filial piety? One year? Three years? If calculated separately by the two queen mothers, two years? Six years

?You can’t say for sure, right?”

The fourth princess blinked, "Yes! Why didn't I think of that?"

Lin Yutong then laughed again, "Do you still remember when Uncle Huang asked us to use knives to kill the enemy at the hunting ground?"

Remember! Yes! Yes! My father would rather watch his own girl kill the enemy with a knife than force her to get married! Really, I was almost brought into trouble by my mother and concubine again. What she said was

I really can't listen to it.

In the palace, the fourth master sent someone to send a message to the third princess, "Just relax, the marriage will not happen."

The third princess put away the needles and threads in her hands and put them all in the box, "This belongs to Shiro. Send it to him. Your knees are cold when you go out riding, so put on your knee pads."

The palace attendant hurriedly went to see it off and came back and said, "King Yong is not here. He said he went to meet the Holy Spirit."

It doesn't matter whether you are there or not, just send it away. I just don't know what the purpose of the meeting is?

The fourth master wanted to marry the Liao Kingdom: "Many ministers have their own reasons. It is better to have good relations with neighbors than to have bad relations with them. If you refuse rashly, you may be wrong. You will delay it on the excuse of keeping filial piety."

, inevitably makes people feel that they have lost sincerity. Then why not treat each other with sincerity, keeping filial piety is true, this is not shirk. We can not mention the marriage for the moment, but we can mention other things! For example, why can't the relationship between the two countries be discussed?

What about other exchanges? For example, royal visits..."

What?

"Royal visits!" Fourth Master said, "We can ask the prince and princess to visit Daliao and come back in three to five months. They can also send their royal family to come, and we can build a pavilion and post office. There are so many people every year

We can talk about everything through mutual visits. We can even send people there first to express our sincerity. If they think it's okay, I can go there."

It’s not like we are sending all the descendants of the royal family to the wolf’s den. If they are damaged, there will be no successors. What are you afraid of? Just go around!

Emperor Wen Zhao was a little dazed. This was really a relatively new way of dealing with the matter. In the past, many envoys were sent, but who would really send members of the royal family back and forth?

But what Shiro mentioned is a good idea.

He asked, "You really dare to go to Daliao with the envoy personally?"

"Don't Daliao people have two shoulders and one head?" Fourth Master stood up and said, "Uncle, this is worth a try!"

Emperor Wen Zhao stood up and wandered around, "Can you try?"

Can try!

"Dare you go?"

Dare to go!

Emperor Wen Zhao stopped and called Lu Cheng: "There will be a family banquet tonight. Inform the second master and the third master to go quickly!"

So, Tongtong was brought to the palace by Lin Keyong to attend the family banquet.
Chapter completed!
