Chapter 254 Huyan Mingchuan, meet Her Royal Highness
What about the beauty trap of the Beixiang envoys? Yun Shu was only interested in it for a few minutes when he first heard about it, but soon he had completely forgotten about it.
It took a day to finalize the birthday gift for Emperor Xuanwu.
In order to avoid being seen in advance, Yun Shu went out of the city early the next morning and inspected the quality of the gift in a place that was tens of thousands of miles away from the capital.
The process was simple and smooth, and Yunshu was very satisfied with the results.
However, when she turned around in a good mood, she saw Jiang Yuanbao and the others with expressions that were a little difficult to describe.
"what happened?"
Yun Shu raised her eyebrows:
"Why do you have this expression?"
"..."
The few people who were not so familiar with Yun Shu lowered their heads silently and did not dare to say a word.
Finally, seeing that no one was talking, Jiang Yuanbao took the initiative to stand up:
"Your Highness, you said before... this is a birthday gift for His Majesty?"
Is there anything wrong with this gift?
Yun Shu was a little confused at first, but then he quickly reacted:
"I understand. Do you all think this gift is a bit too ordinary and confusing?"
“…A little bit.”
Jiang Yuanbao nodded obediently.
This time, Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess prepared a birthday gift for His Majesty, but he actually did not participate in it.
Because Her Royal Highness the Princess said this was not his area of expertise.
He was not originally among the group of people accompanying Her Royal Highness the Princess out of the city today.
It was because when he heard someone mention this matter yesterday, the curiosity and yearning he showed were noticed by Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess, and that was why he was granted extra permission to go along.
But I didn't expect him to be so stupid that he couldn't see the mystery of His Highness' birthday gift.
Will Your Highness be disappointed in him?
Jiang Yuanbao lowered his head in annoyance:
"Your Highness, Weichen..."
"It's normal that you don't understand now. On the birthday, you will understand!"
Yun Shu waved his hand nonchalantly:
"Okay, go back."
"……Yes."
Why do we have to wait until the Wanshou Festival to understand it?
Could it be that this mystery...it chooses a day to appear?
Jiang Yuanbao became more and more confused, but the Princess Royal obviously didn't intend to say more, so he had to put aside his confusion for the time being, quietly mounted his horse and followed her back to the capital.
Maybe it was just a coincidence.
When Yun Shu and his companions returned to the city gate, a large group of people had gathered at the gate.
Yun Shu was sitting on a tall horse, and at a glance he saw the Third Prince standing in the middle of the crowd. He was wearing an official robe and looked unusually serious.
She pulled the reins to slow the horse down.
But the Third Prince and the others still noticed her presence and bowed to her from a distance:
"Greetings to Her Royal Highness the Princess!"
Princess Tiansheng?
Hearing this name that was almost "like thunder in their ears", the Beixiang delegation subconsciously turned around and looked back.
Then I saw a girl in a moon-white dress riding a tall white horse slowly approaching.
There were less than ten followers following her.
I don't look like the majestic person they imagined.
The overall temperament is more relaxed and casual.
His face looks a little childish, but his brows reveal a calm and composed look.
She was indeed completely different from the impression that Princess Baza had of most Tiansheng women. No wonder she did something so horrific last year.
Princess Baza raised her chin slightly, and when Yun Shu's figure came closer, she spoke in a crisp voice:
"Princess Tiansheng, this princess has heard of you!"
"Who said that?"
Yun Shu curled his lips nonchalantly:
"What prince was that who came last year?"
"he?"
Princess Baza snorted disdainfully:
“He is not worthy of speaking to this princess!
But this princess did hear about his story. Putting aside other things, this princess still likes what Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess did at that time.
If you were born in Beixiang, we might have become close friends."
"..."
What do you mean?
Princess Beixiang, do you want to make friends with their Princess Tiansheng?
Has Beixiang changed this year?
The Honglu Temple Minister and his entourage were all confused and hadn't figured out what was going on.
Then Princess Baza continued to speak:
"But there is still a chance now. As long as you marry my ninth brother, you will be my sister-in-law!"
The Minister of Rites: "!!!"
No, isn't it so exciting?
So when you say you're sending a beauty here for marriage, you mean a male beauty? !
The officials of Tiansheng were all dumbfounded. The Third Prince was the fastest to react. He immediately stood up and said:
"Princess Baza, you may not know that the marriage of our princess is quite special.
As early as a year ago, my father had promised personally that if Your Highness gets married, it must be..."
"Just follow your own heart. If you don't really like someone, you won't get married!
This princess has also heard about this."
Princess Baza interrupted:
"This princess did not force Her Royal Highness to marry my ninth brother.
But the two of them can just try to get along with each other first, right?
If you don't get to know him first, how would Your Highness know that you definitely don't like my ninth brother?"
"Baza is right."
The Second Prince of Beixiang, who had been silent before, also spoke up at this time:
“Besides, the marriage was already mentioned in the document that we from Beixiang submitted earlier.
Your Majesty did not raise any objection after seeing it.
If it weren't for this, we wouldn't have brought our ninth brother to Tiansheng this time."
Isn't it because you never mentioned the Ninth Prince in any document from beginning to end?
The officials of the Honglu Temple were already cursing in their hearts. Some of them were quick-witted and were about to open their mouths to refute.
On the other side, Princess Baza had already turned sideways and waved to a thin young man:
"Brother Jiu, why don't you come over and meet the Princess of Tiansheng?"
Ninth brother?
As the voice came out, everyone subconsciously looked in the direction Princess Baza was looking.
The young man whose name was called trembled slightly with his drooping eyelashes. He placed one hand on his chest and performed the etiquette of a Beixiang noble towards Yun Shu:
"Huyan Mingchuan, I meet Her Royal Highness the Princess."
The delicate-looking young man stood out among a group of Beixiang people with tough and rough facial features.
But he also has a unique temperament, like a fragile white rose blooming on the top of a snowy mountain.
When he raised his eyes, his pair of light amber pupils could easily attract people to stop and stare at him.
No wonder he was used as a punching bag by others when he was a child, but could rely on his face to avoid injuries when he grew up.
There is one chapter left and I am already typing away!
