Chapter 278 Please get married (1)
Jiang Ruan lowered her head and didn't know what she was thinking. Xuan Lang stared at her. Jiang Ruan raised her head and said, "What the Fourth Highness said is, but why don't my grandfather and his uncles ask for reinforcements? Wouldn't it be more convenient?"
"The soldiers of the Old General Zhao are guarding the vital points of the capital. How can they be separated from others?" Xuan Lang shook his head: "Besides, the relationship between Deputy General Jiang and General Zhao... will the father of the Zhao family send troops?"
This is to sow discord? Want their brothers to be cold to the emperor? The smile on the corner of Jiang Ruan's lips was fleeting, but after a moment he had changed his expression of a little confused: "What...what should I do?"
"Don't worry," Xuan Lang seemed to think for a while and hesitated: "Eighth brother has a very good relationship with General Wu. If the eighth brother can say something..."
"Eighth Prince?" Jiang Ruan was stunned and said hurriedly: "Can the Eighth Prince help me to persuade General Wu?"
"In the end, this matter depends on the father's thoughts." Xuan Lang seemed helpless and shook his head, "Besides, what the father hates the most is that the ministers cling to each other. The eighth brother's rash words will probably arouse the father's suspicion."
"What should I do?" Jiang Ruan's voice was a little disappointed.
Xuan Lang glanced at her and suddenly leaned closer and said, "Princess, I don't know if I should tell you something."
"You said." Jiang Ruan looked at him.
"Actually, there is no way out." Xuan Lang said.
"What's the solution?" Jiang Ruan's eyes lit up and she couldn't wait to ask.
"The Eighth Brother is now time to choose a concubine. Because of the imperial concubine, the father had always had some prejudice against the eighth brother. Fortunately, he took the initiative to ask about the eighth brother's marriage a few days ago. The eighth brother had told me that he already had someone in his heart." He looked at Jiang Ruan and saw that Jiang Ruan did not show an angry expression and continued: "If the eighth brother became a kin to the princess, there would be such a precedent in the Dajin Dynasty. At that time, the princess would take the opportunity to propose reinforcements. As a husband, it was natural for the eighth brother to help the princess. It would be very natural to recommend General Wu to his father."
"I... with Your Highness the Eighth Highness?" Jiang Ruan asked.
Xuan Lang nodded, as if he was a little embarrassed: "This is actually not a good idea, but there is no other way at the moment. If the princess wants to save Deputy General Jiang, this is the fastest way. The eighth brother is infatuated with the princess, and the princess should be able to get along well with the eighth brother."
"How can I make the decision of my parents?" Jiang Ruan asked.
"This is simple." Xuan Lang said: "Your Eighth Brother just asks for an order to marry his father."
Jiang Ruan sneered in her heart, saying it was easy, and she asked for an order to give a marriage, but she probably had to look at the end of the day. If she really didn't want to, Empress Dowager Yide would not force her. It was precisely because of this reason that Xuan Li asked Xuan Lang to lobby and confirm that she would not refuse.
She was still wondering what Xuan Lang was trying to make in circles, but she didn't expect that she had put her ideas on her. She really made a good plan.
He got married with her and then took the Zhao family for himself. The Jiang family was his person. Didn’t Jiang Xinzhi just let him go? Even the matter of asking General Wu to send troops was borrowed from her. If he really won, wouldn’t all the credit be on Xuan Li? It was a business that would not suffer any loss!
But... Xuan Li really wanted General Wu to send troops to help Jiang Xinzhi, but she couldn't believe it. If Jiang Xinzhi showed a little bit of thought that he would not surrender to Xuan Li, General Wu would stab him in the back without hesitation. Even if Jiang Xinzhi did not show that intention, with General Wu's narrow-minded and jealous temperament, he would not be sure to have a different mind when he met Jiang Xinzhi, who was young and outstanding in military achievements.
Xuan Lang thought that these words were perfect. You should know that Jiang Xinzhi was Jiang Ruan's weakness. The two brothers and sisters had a very good relationship. Jiang Ruan was a woman and was prone to emotional activities. When she heard that it was related to Jiang Xinzhi, she was not immediately anxious. But after waiting for a long time, she couldn't help but feel a little anxious. Jiang Ruan raised her head, but she didn't look like Xuan Lang thought she was helpless and panicked. The expression was cold and calm, and the slightly raised charming eyes showed some clear ridicule. Under such a gaze, the person who was about to see was almost fleeing in a panic.
"Princess..." He was about to speak.
"The Fourth Prince is so proficient in current affairs." Jiang Ruan smiled slightly, and in one sentence, he successfully changed Xuan Lang's expression. She looked at Xuan Lang with a smile: "The Fourth Prince's eloquence should really let His Majesty see clearly in the court's mind."
She smiled and seemed to sigh again, but Xuan Lang immediately felt cold sweat.
Who is he? The most incompetent and mediocre prince in the Dajin Dynasty. Anyone can despise him, the most incompetent, but the safest. When the princes died more or less suddenly, why did he survive alone? It was not because he was lucky, because he was stupid!
Even if it's stupid, it's going to be pretended!
In fact, although he was mediocre and had no talent, he was not as stupid and cowardly as everyone expected. The previous few brothers were smarter and more agile than him and ended up with a good ending, but they were not the same as yellow mud.
The emperor knew that he could not bear the great responsibility, and the court officials knew that he was incapable. In the whirlpool of fighting for the throne, he was always abandoned. He was low and small, and he only took a fancy to Xuan Li among his brothers.
On the surface, he was close to the prince, but in fact he was a Xuanli person. No matter how incompetent a person pretended to be a fool for more than ten years, he was in the royal family, but he still wanted power. Although he knew that he was not qualified to compete for the highest position, it was better to have a little higher than his current status.
Xuan Li has a gentleman mask, but he doesn't have it? But this mask is not as good as Xuan Li. She is humble, cowardly, and timid as a mouse. But she is like a poisonous snake, insect and ant hiding in the dark. She looks inconspicuous, but can give people a fatal blow at critical moments.
He is a transparent sword that Xuan Li used in the palace.
But what did Jiang Ruan mean just now? To let the emperor know that he cares about current affairs so much, he is even a fool and knows that his stupidity in daily life is pretending to be bad things. If it is bad things, even Xuan Li will not let him go easily.
Xuan Lang forced a smile: "Princess, I am a little unfamiliar with my knowledge..."
"Where are," Jiang Ruan said in a relaxed tone: "The Fourth Highness is clearly clever and clear-headed, and has a moderate response. If His Royal Highness knew that such a smart person was by his side, wouldn't the Grand Tutor be redundant?" She smiled and looked at Xuan Lang's panic expression: "Maybe the Fifth Highness would be very happy to know that his brother is so talented."
