After the Western Yue Rebellion, the two sides began to have a tug of war at the border. The emperor did not want to leave the Western Yue that he was about to get, but now he has changed his mind. The Western Yue has swamps and miasma as a natural barrier, so it is not easy to conquer them. Moreover, the people of the Western Yue are brave, and even girls who are only ten years old dare to fight with people with stones. The Kang Dynasty's army suffered a lot of secret losses, but it is impossible to massacre all the Western Yue people.

The last time the Western Vietnamese surrendered was to take advantage of the time when the two countries signed an alliance, many Western Vietnamese people were involved in the city of Dakang. Most of them were women, children and elderly people. This made the Kang Dynasty soldiers relax their vigilance, and finally made them lose the city. If the other party still said they would surrender in the future, the Kang Dynasty soldiers would probably not believe it.

Now both sides are doing it like this, no one can get a advantage, and no one is willing to bow their heads first. However, this situation will definitely not last long. Even for the sake of the suffering people, one side will compromise first.

The emperor was unwilling to be the compromise party. When he was young, he never bowed to anyone. Who knew that by chance he became the emperor, he had to bow to Old Man Zhang, and to the censor, and even to the Yue Man, which was too slap him in the face. Fortunately, God helped him. This summer, Xiyue was hit by a hurricane, and then a plague broke out. The people in the territory were suffering. A few years ago, there was a similar incident. Kang Chao had reached out to give him help and gave him medicine and borrowed food. At this time, both sides were fighting. It was impossible for Kang Chao to help him again. It was already polite enough to not take the blame.

In order to appease the people and restore people's livelihood, the king of the Western Yue Kingdom had to present a letter of surrender to Kang Chao.

The emperor was relieved when he received the news, but he could not let them go so simply. Besides, what if they surrendered again? As a condition, to see their sincerity, Kang Chaotou's first thing was to ask them to give up the coach who had previously planned to surrender, and this coach was not someone else but the Prince of the West Joseon.

The prince of the West Yue was also a common person. After hearing the request of Kang Chao, he came to the borders of the two countries, knelt down towards the closed gate, and then pulled out a dagger and committed suicide. The soldiers in the city thought that this was another trick of the West Yue, so they did not dare to go down to collect the body. It was not until the next day that the ministers of the West Yue came to the gate to explain that the generals guarding the city asked someone to put down the hanging basket and transport the body of the West Yue prince up.

The soldiers in the city knew that the two sides were discussing peace now, so they immediately sent someone to send the body to Chang'an.

The Western Yue Kingdom also came to attend the dynasty meeting on the first day of the Lunar New Year a few years ago to present gifts to the emperor. Many people from the Honglu Temple had seen this prince, but the body was a little corrupted after arriving in Chang'an. Poor ministers were forced to look at it again and again in order to confirm whether the corpse was the prince of the Western Yue, and they couldn't eat for several months.

After confirming his identity, the emperor agreed to the peace talks and asked someone to send a batch of food and medicinal materials to show sincerity. Not long after, a delegation of fifty people sent to Beijing to negotiate. A princess of Xiyue was accompanied by him. He heard that it was the young girl of the prince, who was only thirteen years old. It was common for a woman in Xiyue to get married at the age of thirteen or fourteen. The treasure and the princess were obviously here to marry.

When Zhuhua heard about it, she muttered to the people below, not knowing whether the princess was really coming to marry or to take revenge on her. Besides, this girl is still so young, who can talk to her? It is not a child bride. If the emperor let the princess enter the palace, it would be a father-daughter relationship but a grandfather-grandchild relationship. Although the emperor could still give her to the nobles of the princes, who dared to ask for such an identity and the ferocious reputation of the Western Yue women? If this is really given to the minister, wouldn't it be a trouble for the minister. So when King Ping said that the candidate for marriage might be every family, she couldn't laugh at all.

"Every family has become a monk and never marry this girl." She pulled the veil in anger and said to King Ping: "Just enter the palace quickly and say I don't agree."

"Even if she is not good, she has one advantage. As long as she marrys her, it means that every family has no chance to get from the throne." King Ping advised helplessly.

"Any family becomes a monk, which can also show that they have no chance of being with the throne."

King Ping knew that Zhuhua would definitely object, so he communicated with every family first. Fortunately, the family had already agreed, which gave King Ping the confidence to mention this matter to Zhuhua.

"I've asked about the family, he's willing."

Zhuhua was so angry that she burst into tears, "Who are you coaxing? Do you really treat me like a fool?"

"No, this is just a discussion with you. If it doesn't work, let the emperor find someone else." King Ping said coaxing.

"What discussion? If you hadn't made up your mind, how could every family know before me?" Zhuhua said, then went out and called Qiuchu to pack her clothes. Regardless of King Ping's kind words, he took a few clothes that Qiuchu had tidied out of the door. "Don't think that my father is gone, you can bully me. There is her or not in this family."

Seeing that she was angrily looking to return to the Marquis of Zhongguo Mansion, King Ping hurriedly stopped her, and did not allow the driver to mount a carriage for her. Zhuhua ignored him and took a horse to the horse house without even having a saddle and rode it. King Ping saw her sitting on the horse side, so scared that he hurriedly rushed to follow the carriage, but he didn't dare to follow it too tightly, for fear that she would speed up the horse to drop him away.

After waiting for her to arrive in front of the Marquis of Zhongguo, King Ping was relieved. The person guarding the gate saw Zhuhua coming back in a hurry, and was a little surprised. Zhuhua didn't say much, and as soon as he entered the side door, he pointed to the person guarding the gate and pointed to the person behind Ping Wang who was following him.

"Not allowed him to come in."

"Yes." They responded carefully, and stopped King Ping who wanted to enter the mansion in embarrassment.

King Ping stopped, sighed a long time, and had to return to the carriage and wait in front of the Marquis of Zhongguo Mansion. After a while, Qiu Chu also rushed to the Marquis of Zhongguo Mansion. After saluting him, she quickly walked into the Marquis of Housing. The people guarding the gate did not stop her. They didn't know what was going on, but their eyes were constantly communicating.

When Qiu Chu entered the yard left for Zhuhua in the Marquis of Zhongguo's mansion, the servants inside were leaving. The room was full of all the products, and they just had to make a bed to deliver water. Zhuhua didn't give any more instructions after entering the room. After washing, she lay on the bed with her clothes. When Qiu Chu entered the room, she saw that she was like this and did not dare to go up and ask, so she silently retreated and went to the front and said to Xiao Lin.

When King Ping heard that Zhuhua had already fallen asleep, he sat outside the mansion for a while before returning to Prince Ping's mansion.

The next day, he claimed leave to the Hanlin Courtyard and went directly to the Marquis of Zhongguo Mansion. He also asked the servants who were guarding the gate to go and communicate with him, asking him if he could go in. Zhuhua was still angry, so he naturally refused to let him in. He waited outside from morning to night until he was almost curfew and did not return to the mansion.

The actions of King Ping immediately reached the ears of the troublemakers in the city, and even Zhuhua's words "With her or not" were found by them. They felt that they had learned the whole story. It was King Ping who was in the flower bush and was stopped by the tigress again. Tsk tsk, it was so pitiful.

Yinhua didn't believe it when she heard the news, but she still went back to the Marquis of Zhongguo to investigate the situation. When she arrived, King Ping came to stand outside the Marquis of Zhongguo again, which made Yinhua feel a little reluctant to look at it. But when he thought that if King Ping really wanted to take a concubine and stood up, he deserved it, so he went in with a cold face.

After entering the mansion, she heard that Zhuhua was feeding fish in the garden, so she turned to the garden.

Zhuhua sat in the pavilion by the lake, sprinkled a handful of fish food into the lake with expressionless expression. For a moment, a group of fish rushed out to grab the food. Zhuhua pointed to the silver carp that had eaten the most. The servant maid Zhiyi next to him immediately took it up and sent it to the kitchen to add vegetables to Zhuhua. Yinhua watched the man running past her with the fish, and rolled her eyes at Zhuhua in the pavilion ahead.

"You're in great interest."

"Food is always something to eat." Zhuhua said lightly.

Seeing that the two were about to talk, the servant stepped back at the opportunity and left them alone in the pavilion.

Seeing Zhuhua was listless, Yinhua was confused and asked, "Have you really had a fucking affair with other women?"

Zhuhua nodded.

"Which lady is so bold?"

Zhuhua didn't say anything, and took Yinhua's hand and wrote the word "Yue" on the palm of her hand. Yinhua frowned. Why didn't she remember that there were people in the capital with the surname Yue? Could it be that the incomparable small officials? Speaking of which, only those small officials would be so bold to climb up.

Seeing that she didn't understand, Zhuhua lowered her voice and said, "Western Yue."

Yinhua suddenly realized and couldn't help but say, "That girl is probably so old that she can call King Ping a grandpa!"

Zhuhua curled her lips and added helplessly, "For every family."

Yinhua understood now, she tsk, patted Zhuhua on the shoulder, and said in a vocal voice: "You can live in the Marquis of Zhongguo Mansion with peace of mind."

Zhuhua breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Yinhua with emotion, "Do you think so? No one can want such a girl."

"That's right, I'll make trouble too, I can't harm my son."

Zhuhua glanced at her and asked, "It's you, can you really make trouble?"

Over the years, Yinhua gradually lost her temper, and many things followed Xu Mu's wishes, as if she was a good wife and mother. When Zhuhua asked this, Yinhua was still a little dissatisfied. After she thought about it for a while, she said: "At worst, let the child take a few good concubines."

When Zhuhua heard this, she frowned in dissatisfaction.

Yinhua knew her intentions and smiled and said, "I know you don't like men taking concubines, but there is always a time when I can't help it. Besides, my son is a son. If the son is willing, what's wrong with taking a few concubines?"

Zhuhua refused to respond. Even if she was her son, she didn't want him to take a concubine, and wanted him to be a pair of people for a lifetime.
