Chapter 308 Sauvignon Blanc 65
Xiao Yao was at a loss when her hand was grabbed: "Brother?"
Xuan came back to his senses and asked, "Xiaoyao, why do you suddenly have such an idea?"
Xiaoyao sat down in front of Yuxuan, took Yuxuan's arm, and said, "Tushan's business suffered a lot this time, and Jing is under a lot of pressure. I want to help him. Besides, it will be good for you if my marriage with him is settled, right?"
Although Xiaoyao has not been involved in Xuanxuan's affairs for the time being, she is not stupid.
If Xuan wants to take charge of Xiyan, he must have powerful forces behind him to help him.
If Xiyan City doesn't have it, then the Zhongyuan clan must seize it.
At this time, the sister whom Xuanxuan valued the most was engaged to Tushan, one of the four major clans. This marriage would be the most stable natural bond.
Kill three birds with one stone, why not?
Xuanxuan pursed his lips, feeling a little rough in his throat, and the words he spoke were full of bitterness: "Xiaoyao, have you decided?"
Xiaoyao smiled shyly and reservedly, and anyone who saw her could see her sweetness.
"Well, brother, Jing is very good, I believe he will be the person I have been looking for."
Xuanxuan felt even more miserable.
Finally, after a lot of inner struggles and entanglements, Xuan reluctantly pulled the corners of his mouth and said, "Since you have made up your mind, I will send a message to Grandpa."
Xiaoyao smiled and said, "Thank you, brother."
When the news reached Hao Ling, Ling Xi had no reaction after hearing it.
It's only a matter of time for Xiaoyao and Tushanjing to be together. There's nothing to be surprised about.
At present, we are only planning the marriage.
She immediately ordered Zisu and Baizhi: "Zisu, Baizhi, prepare a heavy dowry and send someone to deliver it to Xiaoyao in Chenyi. Tell her that this is the dowry given to her by her father and my sister. Tell her not to be afraid of anything that happens. With Haoling behind her, no one can bully her."
Shiso and Baizhi: "As you command."
The news that the young master of the Tushan clan and the princess of the Xiyan king had made an engagement spread throughout the Great Wilderness in a short period of time, and the clans in the Central Plains also praised Xuan Xuan because of this matter.
Before I knew it, more than ten years had passed.
During these ten years or so, Hao Ling and Xi Yan had a very peaceful life, and nothing major happened.
Haoling, Xiyan, Central Plains and even the entire Great Wilderness are all in peace.
Until this year, a major event happened in Xiyan.
King Xiyan abdicated.
Instead of appointing a successor, he suddenly abdicated.
The new King of Xiyan is Xuan, who has taken over the throne.
This news swept across the entire Wilderness and surprised many people there.
After all, in the eyes of many people, Xuan was not favored by King Xiyan, and no one expected that the position of King Xiyan would fall to Xuan.
When the news from the Central Plains reached the capital of Haoling, Ling Xi was playing chess with his father, looking very relaxed and contented.
Upon hearing the news reported by their subordinates, Ling Xi and King Hao Ling both looked equally calm.
Both father and daughter knew who would be the final winner, so they were not surprised when they heard the news.
King Hao Ling placed a chess piece, then looked at his daughter sitting opposite him. A smile appeared on his face, and he suggested sincerely:
"Ah Xi, you see that Xuan has already succeeded to the throne of King Xiyan. How about I give you my position and you also succeed to King Haoling? Otherwise, you are a young prince and he is the King of Xiyan. Doesn't your status sound inferior to his?" Ling Xi lightly glanced at her father's gloating expression and ruthlessly rejected this seemingly perfect proposal:
"No, father, I think it's fine now. The old King Xiyan is old, so it's understandable for him to give up the throne, but you are in your prime, and I think you can work for a few hundred more years."
King Hao Ling: “.”
He just wants to retire early and live a retirement life, why is it so difficult?
"So what are you going to do now?" he continued to ask.
King Hao Ling is well aware of his daughter's ambition. To unify the Great Wilderness, it is necessary to conquer Xiyan, which is not so easy.
Now that Xuan has become the king, it is still unknown what the future holds.
Ling Xi placed a chess piece on the chessboard, curled the corners of his lips, and said confidently: "Don't worry, this battle cannot be initiated by us Hao Ling. We Hao Ling must be the party that is forced to fight the enemy."
The wilderness is peaceful and tranquil. Based on this, whoever starts a war first will destroy the tranquility of the wilderness and stand on the immoral side.
"Now let's see who has better patience, Xuan or me."
And she is confident that she will not lose.
King Hao Ling changed the subject again, changing to a question that he was very concerned about, and asked: "Ah Xi, Xuan has already married a concubine. After he succeeds to the throne, he will definitely choose to marry someone else. Shouldn't you also consider your own life events?"
As a father who loves his daughter, King Hao Ling really cares about this issue. He knew that Axi liked Fangfeng Bei more than ten years ago. However, in these ten years, he didn't see Axi in a hurry to get married or give Fangfeng Bei a formal status.
"Ah Xi, do you want Fang Fengbei to follow you without any name or status?"
"cough cough"
Upon hearing King Hao Ling's words, Ling Xi was suddenly choked and coughed so hard that it shook the heavens and the earth and made the ghosts weep.
Her horrified gaze fell on King Haoling, not understanding why he said that.
"Father, why do you think so?"
She and her baby are so sweet and happy that Xiangliu wishes he could stay with her for twelve hours a day. Ling Xi even thinks Xiangliu is too clingy.
Just a few days ago, she drove Xiangliu back to Chenrong Army.
Although Chen Rong's army no longer lacked food and medicine with Qi Jinchao's help, she didn't know what it meant for Xiang Liu, as the army's military advisor, to stay with her all the time. So, she cruelly drove Xiang Liu back.
King Hao Ling was puzzled: "Isn't it? Since you and Fang Fengbei have a stable relationship, why don't you bring him to your father to take a look, and why don't you marry him? Don't you think your father will make things difficult for him?"
King Hao Ling spoke righteously, but in fact he had already thought of thousands of ways to test this Fengfengbei.
It is definitely not easy to marry his daughter, and it requires tests.
He would not let Fangfeng Bei marry Axi so easily.
What's more, as the young master of Haoling, Ah Xi's husband has a special status and not just anyone can take on the role.
Ling Xi couldn't help but cover her face. She never thought that her desire to discuss marriage after the matter was settled would make her father think that she wanted Fang Fengbei to accompany her without any status or position.
Facing the questioning look from King Hao Ling, she explained carefully: "Father, I definitely don't mean that. I just want to talk about feelings after everything is done."
"Does Fang Fengbei have any objection to this?" asked King Hao Ling.
Ling Xi lowered her eyes and smiled gently: "He has no objection. Besides, he doesn't dare to have any objection."
She and Xiangliu always have the same attitude towards this matter.
Responsibility comes first, feelings come second, this is their principle of action and there will be no opinions.
