Chapter 710 - Marriage alliance
The group soon arrived at the capital.
The capital was not far ahead.
Xiao Jiuyuan and Xiao Yechen said goodbye and separated.
Everyone split up.
They were walking together in such a high-profile manner. If this matter were to reach the emperor’s ears, who knew what he would think.
Xiao Jiuyuan was responsible for sending Yun Qianyu back to the Prince’s residence.
On the way, Xiao Jiuyuan did not forget to remind Yun Qianyu.
“Yu ‘er, it has been some time since your spiritual power cultivation has reached the peak of the green spirit. After this visit to the Lingyun sect, I found that your green power has solidified. You can cultivate your spiritual power again. In the future, when you have nothing to do, you can come to the spirit gathering array of my li Prince’s residence to cultivate your spiritual power.”
Yun Qianyu agreed with Xiao Jiuyuan’s words. Sitting in the carriage, she lifted the curtain and looked out.
“Alright, I got it.”
Xiao Jiuyuan pursed his lips and smiled.
The subordinates behind him all had black lines on their faces as they muttered in their hearts.
Shameless, His Highness was too shameless.
They hadn’t even separated yet, and he was already thinking of cultivating and trying to abduct Princess Lingyi into li Prince’s residence.
In the end, it was because she didn’t want to be separated from him.
As soon as the carriage entered the capital, Xiao Jiuyuan, Yun Qianyu, and the others found that the streets were very lively. It seemed that something big had happened, and many people were talking about it.
Xiao Jiuyuan was about to ask someone to find out what had happened in Beijing.
Xia Xi, the housekeeper of li Prince’s residence, had already come over with several subordinates.
The group of people walked over, dismounted from their horses, and bowed respectfully.
Xiao Jiuyuan sat on his horse, his black hair fluttering in the wind, and his robe fluttering in the wind.
Many people around him were stunned by his actions, and the people began to whisper.
“Look at li Prince, he seems to be more handsome than before.”
“It’s not that he’s handsome anymore. He’s even more approachable now. He doesn’t seem as scary as before.”
“Yes, do you think Princess Zhao Hua of Nan Zhao will choose li Prince as the marriage partner?”
“If that’s the case, the two of them are quite compatible.”
These discussions reached Xiao Jiuyuan and Yun Qianyu’s ears one after another. The two of them raised their eyebrows at the same time, wondering when another Princess Zhao Hua of the South zhao kingdom had come.
Xiao Jiuyuan looked at Xia Xi and asked,”what happened in the capital?”
When he had left the capital earlier, he had instructed Xia Xi not to send a letter to him unless it was an important matter.
In order to not distract him, he went to Lingyun sect this time to save Yu ‘er with all his heart. He didn’t want to care about other things.
Because he had given the order, Xia Xi did not dare to send someone to report the matter in the capital to him.
Therefore, Xiao Jiuyuan did not know what was going on in the capital.
Now that he had asked, Xia Xi immediately reported.
“Your Highness, a few days ago, an envoy from Nan Zhao entered the capital. The one leading the group was the Crown Prince of Nan Zhao, Zhuge Jin. Other than the Crown Prince, there was also Princess Zhao Hua and many other envoys,” the messenger said.
“Earlier, the Emperor hosted a banquet in the palace to entertain Nan Zhao’s envoy. I heard that Nan Zhao’s envoy has come to the capital for the peace between the two countries.”
“I heard that the Crown Prince of Nan Zhao and the Emperor had a good conversation. The Emperor agreed to let Princess Zhao Hua of Nan Zhao choose a marriage partner in my Dongli state …”
Xia Xi finished speaking.
Xiao Jiuyuan’s eyebrows were tightly knitted together, and he was very unhappy.
At the same time, he didn’t agree with his brother’s actions.
How could he agree to let the people of Nan Zhao choose their marriage partner at will? he, Nan Zhao, had naturally come to Dongli to talk about peace, so he should have some sincerity. Why should he let that Princess Zhao Hua choose her marriage partner?
