Chapter 1742 May You Be Warm and Pure Throughout Your Life, Never Giving up Love and Freedom

Ruoyin: "This marriage, on the surface, is about using women to make a deal. In fact, it is not. It is about the Qing Dynasty trying to reduce the pressure on the various tribes in Mongolia so that the Qing Dynasty can concentrate on dealing with other countries and things, because compared to fighting, The people are complaining constantly, so marriage is the most peaceful and simple way."

"This has an important effect on the long-term reconciliation of the two major martial and brave ethnic groups in the north, and on the Qing government's jurisdiction and management of the border Mongolian areas. The more noble the two parties are, the heavier the weight and the greater the effect. Now, looking at it, only You are the most favored princess of the right age in our Qing royal family."

"Oh." Aier nodded as if he understood, "But a few years ago, I heard that King Khan of Horqin had several sons. How come he only has one son now?"

Ruoyin: "Oh, it's not like there is intrigue in the royal family. After all the fighting, there is only one left. I heard that the second Mongolian prince is the Batulu (the first warrior) of their tribe. He is ruthless and will kill several All the brothers were brutally killed, and even his eldest brother died at his hands, so he naturally became the second prince. It is said that the old Khan was critically ill, and it was also his fault."

"This time he came to our place to get married. Who knows what his plans were. A person like this is so cruel to his family, how can he be so kind to women?"

"Originally, your imperial brother, this palace, and your emperor, Ama, didn't want you to marry so far away. What's more, the second prince is so unbearable, so it's even more difficult to marry."

"That's why I asked you to stay at home. When they come, they will find an excuse to say that you are not in good health and send them away at will, so as not to let you wander around the capital all day long and look at nothing. Doesn’t look like a frail person.”

"..." Somehow, Ai'er suddenly remembered that Meng wearing a dark brocade robe.

He was also from Mongolia, and although he didn't say it, through conversation, it seemed that he also came to the Qing Dynasty to marry a wife.

But Huang Erniang said that Horqin's second prince was a man with a beastly heart, who harmed his brothers and framed his father, and was a cunning and cunning man.

And that Meng didn't seem to be such a person, but rather a bit naive.

And she was so unreasonable today, and he didn't care about her.

Seeing that Ai'er was silent, Ruoyin asked, "Girl, did you hear what the Queen's mother said?"

Only then did Aier come back to her senses, "Oh, my daughter knows."

At the same time, she was thinking that Horqin's second prince was definitely not the same person as Meng, because the two men had completely different personalities.

Moreover, how could His Majesty, the second prince of the Horqin tribe, go to the capital to compete with others?

"Do you really know?" Ruoyin asked worriedly.

At this moment, Ruoyin had already applied the ointment on Aier, and Aier was sitting on the small bench, with her hands flat on Ruoyin's thighs, her face leaning on the back of her hands, and her whole body lying on Ruoyin's knees.

Such a well-behaved and docile appearance is completely different from the unruly and willful appearance outside.

Ai'er held her lips and said: "Empress Huang, don't worry. My daughter didn't know such a thing before. Now that you have told her, I won't go out again. Anyway, I don't want to marry." Mongolia doesn’t want to leave the Queen.”

"This is the Queen's good child." Ruoyin lowered his head and gently stroked Ai'er's hair, "I have heard that the Mongolian royal family is a place that eats people without spitting out their bones, especially when we Central Plains women marry In the past, no matter what your status was, you could not have children. If a man died, you would have to marry his son, which is simply ridiculous."

"You are the apple of our Qing royal family's eye. No matter what, we can't marry there and suffer the consequences. The Queen Mother only wishes that you will live a warm and pure life, never giving up love and freedom. If you get there, let alone love, you will not even have freedom. Gone..."

Elle: "..."

Ruoyin, who didn't get a response, looked down and saw Aier sleeping on her knees.

Ruoyin chuckled fondly, "Come on, he fell asleep on my side again."

Seeing Ai'er asleep, Ruoyin continued to sit and enjoy the moment when mother and daughter were alone.

The girl didn't stay in college, and after Aier got married, there were fewer such warm moments, so she cherished them very much.

After about a stick of incense, she and Banmei helped Ai'er to rest in the boudoir.

During the Cuju competition three days later, Ai'er stayed in the Old Summer Palace and didn't go out anywhere.

But when she thought about her agreement with the man, if she didn't go, it would appear that she was not keeping her word.

She wanted someone to send a message to the man, saying that she had something to do and couldn't go, but she didn't know where he lived.

He had no choice but to order his servants to guard the place where the Cuju competition was held.

At noon, some of the servants who went to deliver the message came back.

"Princess, I went there, but I didn't see the person you mentioned at all." The servant reported truthfully.

Ai'er was lying on the table in the boudoir in a daze, but now after hearing this, she raised her head and said in surprise: "How is that possible? Are you sure you didn't find the wrong person?"

Palace Maid: "How can there be any mistake? We all saw him during the bow shooting that day, so we naturally know what he looks like. When we went there today, we searched the entire arena and didn't see him. The servants were worried. I missed it and waited until the end of the game to come back.”

"But now the game is over, and we haven't seen him yet."

"So, it means he lied to this princess!" Ai'er was so angry that she stamped her feet, if she hadn't promised the emperor not to go to the capital for a walk.

Otherwise, we would have to search the entire capital and tie the man in front of us.

Hehe, they agreed to play Cuju in three days, but she couldn't go out for some reason. She was afraid that he would wait there, so she kindly asked her servant to bring him a message, but she didn't even think about going.

She was the only one who took the agreement seriously, and others had already seen it through.

Yes, he didn't seem very willing that day, probably just to perfunctory her, but she took it seriously.

Thinking of this, Ai'er angrily let out an "hum", "You're trying to trick someone, right? It's best not to let this princess catch him, otherwise you'll have to skin him!"

No, after Horqin's people return to the tribe, she won't have to stay in the Old Summer Palace all day long. Then she will order a portrait to find this person who broke his promise!

The third day of June is the day when His Royal Highness the Prince of the Horqin Tribe meets with the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty.

The two parties met at the royal hunting ground.

The meeting between the second prince of the Horqin tribe and the Qing emperor was a political meeting, no matter what the purpose was.

In situations like this, Fourth Master and Ruoyin usually don't participate.

Because if they go, they will steal the emperor's limelight and make the emperor constrained.

But the emperor and several elder brothers said that Ruoyin and Fourth Master had not been to the royal hunting ground for more than ten years.

In addition, Ai'er also wanted to go with her. Ruoyin couldn't resist the children, so she took Fourth Master with her to Mulan Paddock.

Because it takes more than a day to get from the capital to Mulan Paddock.

Therefore, they set out on the first day of June and arrived at the paddock on the second day of the lunar month. The family hunted and lit a bonfire to roast meat.

On the third day of the lunar month, the emperor met with Prince Horqin and the envoy. Ruoyin and Fourth Master were living in the paddock palace and did not participate.

The second elder brother, the third elder brother, the fifth elder brother, as well as princes and ministers accompanied the emperor to participate.

As a princess and the main person in this marriage, Aier naturally wanted to participate.

Although the royal family did not plan to marry her to Mongolia, it was not a problem to hide her from her because anyone with a discerning eye would know what was going on.

Not only did the emperor not let Aier hide, but he also allowed her to boldly attend the banquet.

In the morning of this day, the emperor held a banquet in a palace in the palace.

Some princes and ministers arrived early.

Ai'er arrived with the second elder brother, the third elder brother, and the fifth elder brother.

As soon as she sat down in the palace, she heard the eunuch outside singing an announcement: "The second prince of the Horqin tribe has arrived!"
