Guan Qing led Tang Ji and led the conversation to Liu Nu.

Tang Ji lowered her head, twisted her chin with her slender hands, and quietly listened to Guan Qing's narration.

When Guan Qing said that Liu Nu had washed her face with tears all day long, Tang Ji raised her head and looked at her, with a trace of doubt in her eyes, but she didn't open her mouth to ask.

Just when Guan Qing was about to lead the topic to Liu Wei to marry Liu Nu, Tao Huanniang stepped into the house.

"How many princesses are there?" Entering the house, Tao Huanniang saw that Cai Yan and Guan Qing were also there, and said with a sweet smile: "His Royal Highness just held a family banquet at Princess Guan, and Princess Tang held a family banquet again, but my stomach can't hold it!" ”

Tao Huanniang entered the hall, and Tang Ji, Cai Yan and Guan Qing all stood up.

Guan Qing stepped forward very enthusiastically and pulled Tao Huanniang and said to her: "Just now, Princess Tang still wants to invite Ju Ci, but I stopped it!" ”

"Ju Ci has been living in the palace for the past few years, and he is already his own family, why don't you invite him?" As soon as Guan Qing's words fell, Tao Huanniang turned her head and said to the maid who came to Tang Ji's bedroom with him: "Go and invite Ju Ci!" ”

The maid who got Tao Huanniang's order answered, turned around and left.

Tao Huanniang ordered quickly, and the maid walked quickly, Tang Ji and Cai Yan wanted to open their mouths to stop them, but it was already a little late.

"Please come here, I'm afraid it's not appropriate!" Tang Ji and Cai Yan glanced at each other, and before they could speak, Guan Qing said to Tao Huanniang with a hesitant face: "Ju Ci must be unhappy in his heart at this time, so invite her to ......"

Only halfway through the words, Guan Qing didn't continue.

Several of Liu Bian's princesses, Tang Ji and Cai Yan were all women who grew up in the family of official eunuchs, and their minds were delicate and dexterous, Guan Qing had been in the Yellow Turban Army since he was a child, although he had never shown scheming in front of Liu Bian, and in terms of dealing with people, he was not much worse than Tang Ji and Cai Yan.

Only Tao Huanniang, who was born in a rural family, before meeting Liu Wen, he was in contact with simple mountain people, where would he have a deep scheming like them.

Although she is simple by nature, Tao Huanniang is not a fool, and she can see some clues from the looks on the faces of Tang Ji and others.

"What's wrong? Could it be that I'm doing a bad job? Seeing that Tang Ji and the others' faces were a little wrong, Tao Huanniang asked confusedly.

"I just said that the princess said, I'm afraid it's not appropriate to invite Ju to come at this moment!" Tang Ji smiled slightly, and said to Tao Huanniang: "Since Princess Tao has already invited Ju Ci, when Ju Ci comes, I will wait for her to be relieved!" ”

Tang Ji didn't make it clear, but Tao Huanniang became more and more confused, turned her head to look at Guan Qing, and said in surprise: "What's wrong today?" Why are the princesses mysterious, what is there to hide from me? ”

Fang just told Tang Ji and Cai Yan about the letter to Bei, Guan Qing was waiting for the best opportunity to pick out the words, seeing Tao Huanniang's confused face, she hurriedly said: "Princess Tang and Princess Cai also just heard from me about the matter of the second, went to Bei in the Xiongnu to seek judgment, put Da Shan Yu under house arrest, defeated Liu Bao, the king of Zuoxian, and sent a letter to threaten His Royal Highness, and send Ju Ci back to the Xiongnu, otherwise the army will be overwhelmed!" ”

"The Hun army is pressing?" Obviously not believing Guan Qing's words, Tao Huanniang turned her head to look at her, and said with a surprised expression: "Could it be that you are going to be humble and forgetful, how did His Highness drive straight into and defeat the Huns back then?" ”

"The Great Qin army is in full swing, but now it is fighting with the Cao army!" Guan Qing sighed softly, the expression on his face revealed a sense of loneliness, and said to Tao Huanniang, Tang Ji, and Cai Yan: "Although His Royal Highness sent Pang Junshi to Liaodong, there is no reason, even if Gongsun Du of Liaodong sends troops, he is not a teacher!" ”

Among the four princesses, only Guan Qing knows some military affairs, and when she analyzes the current military, Tang Ji and the others can't interject, they can only listen.

However, Tang Ji and Cai Yan are both ice and snow smart, and they know that Guan Qing must have something to say when he comes here, and when Guan Qing said that Liu Wei asked Liaodong to send troops to the Xiongnu is unknown, Tang Ji said to her: "No wonder His Royal Highness has rarely favored us recently, but unfortunately we are all daughters, and I know that His Highness is troubled, and there is no way to help!" ”

"Although we can't help His Highness go out to kill the enemy, we can also help find a reason to get out of the army!" Knowing that Tang Ji was probing her words, Guan Qing also knew that this was the time to introduce the topic to the topic, so he said: "Although I am not very happy in my heart, I am also willing to promote this matter for His Royal Highness, but I don't know what the princesses think!" ”

Guan Qing said it to this point, Tang Ji and Cai Yan had already guessed four or five points, neither of them spoke, just lowered their heads and pondered, but Tao Huanniang asked on the side: "What did Princess Guan say?" But if I can help His Highness, I am also willing! ”

To say that Tao Huanniang has no scheming, it is precisely in this regard.

Knowing that Liu Wei is now in a difficult situation, her heart has long been panicked, where will she think carefully about the meaning of Guan Qing's words, and without waiting for Guan Qing to say her idea, she has already expressed that it will promote something beneficial to Liu Bian.

Tao Huanniang said everything to this point, Tang Ji just smiled slightly, made a gesture of invitation to everyone and said: "A few princesses sit down and talk, they are all standing, looking strange and tired!" ”

Tang Ji beckoned everyone to sit down, and everyone responded and sat down one after another.

Guan Qing was not in a hurry to say that Liu Wei married Liu Nu, Tao Huanniang had already stated that as long as she could persuade Tang Ji and Cai Yan now.

Liu Nu is not there, Tang Ji and Cai Yan may refute Guan Qing's mention without any face, once Liu Nu comes, then make the words clear, don't say that Tao Huanniang, who has already expressed her position, is not remorseful, even Tang Ji and Cai Yan, I'm afraid they won't be too tough.

Previously, Tang Ji was prevented from calling someone to invite Liu Nu, in order to delay time and wait for Tao Huanniang, and after Tao Huanniang came, it was time for Liu Nu to appear.

After taking a seat, Tao Huanniang was still thinking about how to help Liu Wei in her heart, and asked Guan Qing again: "Princess Guan just said that I can help His Royal Highness find a reason to invite Liaodong to send troops, I don't know what the princess has in mind?" ”

Smiling at Tao Huanniang, Guan Qing did not immediately answer her words, but picked up the tea cup from the table, took a sip of tea, and said as if talking to herself: "I said this half of the conversation, but I am thirsty!" ”

As soon as he put down the teacup, Liu Nu, who was invited by Tao Huanniang's maid, had already arrived outside the door of the front hall.

When the teacup was placed, Guan Qing's eyes happened to see Liu Nu, who had just come to the door of the front hall and had not had time to enter the hall.

Because of the letter sent by Beibei, Liu Nu's mood has been very depressed these days, coupled with Liu Wei's hazy attitude, not to marry her, nor to say not to marry, but also made her always ponder this matter in her heart, and the whole person looks a lot haggard.

When Guan Qing greeted Liu Nu, Tang Ji and the others had already seen her.

However, Tang Ji and the others did not get up like Guan Qing and Tao Huanniang entered the front hall earlier, but just smiled at Liu Nu.

"It's just right in time!" Seeing Liu Nu, Tang Ji and the others were speechless, Guan Qing stood up, walked to the door and pulled Liu Nu into the house and said, "Just now, I also mentioned the matter of ranking second with Princess Tang, Princess Cai and Princess Tao!" ”

When Guan Qing said this, Tang Ji and Cai Yan both knew that she was going to get to the point, but both of them just smiled slightly and did not speak.

Tao Huanniang stood up and said to Guan Qing and Liu Nu: "Since Ju Ci is here, please also sit down, and I will wait for my sisters to talk well today!" ”

After thanking Tang Ji and the others, Liu Nu sat down behind a low table.

When a maid served wine and food on the low table in front of everyone, Tang Ji said: "Today, the sisters are gathered together, and don't say those unhappy words, how about we just talk about sisterhood?" ”

Tang Ji's words were echoed by Cai Yan, but Tao Huanniang still had a very important thing to say: "Now His Royal Highness is in a difficult situation, how can I have happy words!" Several princesses are smart, or think about how to solve problems for His Royal Highness! ”

Tao Huanniang's words made Tang Ji and Cai Yan want to shake their heads depressedly.

Both of them saw that Guan Qing was digging a pit for them to jump, but Tao Huanniang jumped down without knowing it.

From Tang Ji and Cai Yan's faces, Guan Qing could also see that they probably understood her deep meaning.

Since Liu Nu has arrived, Guan Qing no longer conceals it, and simply picks out the words and says: "Princess Tao has already said that as long as she can relieve His Highness's worries, she will be defined!" I have an idea, I don't know what the princesses think! ”

Tang Ji and Cai Yan glanced at each other, and then the two turned their faces to Liu Nu again.

Although Liu Nu didn't know what Guan Qing and the others had said, they also heard that what Guan Qing was going to say next must be something that prompted Liu Wei to marry her.

Under the dual effect of shyness and shame, Liu Nu blushed and buried his head in his chest, not daring to look at Tang Ji and Cai Yan.

Guan Qing's words made Tao Huanniang nod when she heard it, and even said: "If the princess has something to say, just say it!" ”

"I mean, please marry Your Highness! Once Ju Ci became the concubine of His Royal Highness, His Royal Highness had a 100,000 reason to ask Gongsun Du, the assassin of Liaodong, to send troops to attack the Huns! The words have been said to this point, and Guan Qing no longer detours, and directly picked the topic to understand.

Tang Ji and Cai Yan had already guessed what Guan Qing would say, and the expressions on their faces were not a little surprised, but only slightly revealed some entanglement.

On the other hand, Tao Huanniang, who had just agreed to allow Guan Qing to do anything, was stunned, staring at Guan Qing without blinking, as if she was looking at something strange.

She only thought about helping Liu Wei, but she didn't expect Guan Qing to come up with such an idea.

Liu Wei has four princesses, and the time to spoil them on weekdays is not much, no matter what she says, Tao Huanniang can't believe that Guan Qing, who is also the princess of Liu Bian, would propose to promote Liu Wei to marry Liu Nu!
