Love Affairs in Chang'an - Chapter 509

Chapter 509 Be in Danger of Overwhelming Waves
A group of armored soldiers rushed in aggressively, blocking the room. The two female maidservants sent by Wu Meiniang were already tied up and trampled on the ground with their feet. Their weak bodies were trembling, how pitiful.

Princess Xinyue’s face was deathly pale. He covered his veil and stared at the two people walking in from the gate. “Father … Prince Chahar Mon, what are you doing?” He asked in shock.

A middle-aged man dressed in black, with a large beard on his face, walked in side by side with a young man with an unusually white mustache. He had a triumphant smile on his face. He was very unhappy.

Seeing this scene, Wu Meiniang’s heart became clear-the palace coup! “Princess Xinyue’s father is one of the three Kang ministers, Military Minister Balerihan? The other is Prince Chahar Mon?”

Apart from that, there was no other possibility.

“Bitch! Don’t call me father!” Blackbearded Balerihan gritted his teeth angrily, rushed forward and slapped Princess Xinyue in the face. He roared angrily, “You have collaborated with the enemy to poison the king. You are already a sinner of the Kang Kingdom! I do not have a daughter like you!”

Princess Xinyue was knocked to the ground by a slap, but he did not howl or cry out in alarm. He raised his head and said anxiously, “What did you say? What happened to His Majesty the King?”

“Someone, arrest this spy from Tang Country!” ‘”Your Majesty just finished dinner with you and went back, he died of poison! It’s you, you bitch! You plotted to collude with the foreign enemy to poison the king!” Ballerihan pointed at Wu Meiniang and roared angrily, “It’s you, you bitch! You plotted to collude with the foreign enemy to poison the king!”

“What?” Wu Meiniang and Princess Xinyue were both shocked, “The king died from poison hair?”

“Humph!” Standing at the side, Prince Chahar Meng of Kang Country sneered. He walked to Wu Meiniang with his hands cut off from his back, lowered his head and stared at Wu Meiniang. He said in half-baked Chinese, “You are a spy of Tang Country! It was you who poisoned my father!”

“Chahar Mon, don’t spout blood!” Princess Xinyue was anxious. He climbed up from the ground and stood in front of Wu Meiniang. He angrily said, “You ambitious villain, it’s fine if you don’t want to repay your kindness! Your Majesty has chosen your nephew to be the crown prince, but you only want to seize the throne! Other people don’t know, don’t I? You secretly colluded with Balerihan to discuss a coup and seize power, I’ll listen …”

“Pa!” It was another extremely loud ear. Balerihan almost sent Princess Xinyue flying with a slap and heavily fell to the ground. The veil on his face was dyed red on the spot.

Wu Meiniang remained silent and stood there quietly. Although her heart was filled with horror, she had always been abnormally quiet.

This was somewhat beyond Chaharmont and Balerihan’s expectations.

“Capture this heretic from Tang Country! Burn him to death!” Balerihan pointed at Wu Meiniang and shouted again.

“Wait.” Prince Chahar Meng raised his hand, a strange and obscene expression flashing across his eyes. He raised his foot and walked around Wu Meiniang’s side. He sized her up several times

During this period of time, Wu Meiniang stood proudly without saying a word, her expression unchanging, her heart beating, and her expression unperturbed.

“What a beautiful and perfect woman. She was bestowed upon me by the Prophet!” Chahar Meng laughed loudly and suddenly pointed his finger at Wu Meiniang’s nose, “You, you’re mine!”

Balerihan was shocked and hurriedly whispered in his ear, “Prince, this is impossible! This woman is unknown, she is our enemy! Leave her by your side …”

“Shut up, Balerihan! Don’t forget, I am the prince, your master! Not long from now, I will be the master of the Kang Kingdom, your sovereign!” Chahar’s face turned stiff, and his triangular eyes narrowed as he stared at Wu Meiniang. He even swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said, “This is the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen in the world!” No matter what, I must make her my princess! Even if she was Qin Mubai’s wife, that would be even better! I want to humiliate Qin Mubai, humiliate the Tang Dynasty! Let’s see what they can do to me! ”

“Prince, you mustn’t cause any complications at this time!” “The king has just been poisoned to death by them. We must execute this woman in order to give an explanation to the people of Kangju Kingdom! Only then can we logically invite the 300,000 Arabs sent by Allah over the Samu River to help us deal with the enemies of the Tang Dynasty!”

Chahar Mon was slightly stunned and blinked his eyes, as if he felt that Chahar Mon’s words were reasonable. However, as he stared at Wu Meiniang’s suffocating face and her tall, half-naked chest, his heart was burning with evil desire, and he was very unwilling to accept it.

At this moment, Wu Meiniang was even calmer. She knew that Balerihan and Chahar Mon had probably overlooked one detail, and that was that Wu Meiniang could understand Sogdian. From the occasional remarks that leaked out of their whispers, Wu Meiniang came to the conclusion that the prince and the ministers plotted to poison the king to seize the throne, then used the Arabs’ power to suppress the discontent and resistance that might arise in the country, and at the same time became enemies with the Great Tang who was about to dominate the Western Regions.

Thoughts flashed through her mind. Not only was Wu Meiniang in danger not shocked, not afraid, not crying, but she smiled. She walked two steps to the table and sat down. She poured herself tea and drank.

Balerihan and Chaharmont were shocked again. Everyone in the room looked at Wu Meiniang.

“She doesn’t seem to be afraid at all?” Prince Chahar Meng said in surprise, and his gaze towards Wu Meiniang became even more stunning.

“She’s putting on airs! She’s a devil! She tricked the princess into poisoning our respected king! Your Highness, you must capture her and burn her to death!” Chahar Mon was practically jumping to his feet and shouting as he grabbed the collapsed Princess Xinyue and angrily said, “And this bitch! She’s an accomplice! She’s no longer worthy of being a believer in Allah and our princess. She must be burned to death with this heathen!”

“Alright, Balerihan, don’t get too excited.” Prince Chahar Meng’s eyes were on Wu Meiniang. Impatiently, he waved his hand and sat down beside Wu Meiniang. “Tell me, why aren’t you afraid at all?” He said.

“Because I can see that you’re not as stupid as Chahar Mon.” Wu Meiniang drank some tea and said casually.

“What are you talking about?” The bearded Balerihan was furious.

“Don’t make any noise! You go out first!” Chahar Meng angrily waved his hand, “Guards, take the princess away! Everyone, leave this room now, immediately!”

Balerihan glared at Wu Meiniang with his eyes burning with anger and retreated with the guards with extreme unwillingness. Princess Xinyue, who was almost knocked unconscious by a slap, was also taken away.

There are only two people left in the room.

Chahar Mengse’s heart was filled with determination, and Wu Meiniang’s heart was in a state of chaos as she forced herself to calm down.

“Beauty, if you have anything to say, just say it!” Chahar Montgomery struggled to maintain the honor of a prince, as if he was speaking very generously, “Unlike my old and unconscious father, I have always been very open-minded and tolerant in the teachings of the prophets.”

Wu Meiniang’s face turned stiff as she looked at Chahar Meng and said solemnly, “Prince Chahar Meng, I think you are a smart person, so I have to say a few more words to you!” I don’t care how His Majesty died. All I know is that as long as you lure the Arabian army to Kang, you will be digging your own grave! Not only will the Kang Empire perish, you will also become the ruler of the kingdom, and you will even die without a burial ground! ”

Chahar Meng did not seem to be listening to Wu Meiniang’s words. He rubbed his moustache and stared at Wu Meiniang’s chest in a daze. He said casually, “No way.” Grand Marshal Norman of Arabia is a good friend of mine. We agreed that as long as I open the Samu River’s checkpoint to him, he will guarantee that I will be the king of Kang Ju Kingdom for the rest of my life, and even the king of the Western Regions! “Beauty, stay as my princess. I promise to make you the happiest woman in the world!”

Wu Meiniang was so disgusted that she wanted to vomit. She really wanted to castrate him on the spot and cut him into pieces to feed to the dog.

But she endured it.

Not only did she endure it, she also revealed a smile on her face and said, “I am very grateful to His Highness the Prince for treating me so highly as a merchant girl.” Actually, although I have already married into a woman, Qin Mubai has never taken me to heart when he was out in the wild. I am already very tired of him. Otherwise, I would not have left the Western Regions to avoid him from afar. The prince wants me to be your princess. I am very honored and willing to agree to it. But there are two prerequisites! ”

Chahar Meng gulped down a mouthful of saliva and his eyes immediately shone with green light. “Beauty, what do you think the conditions are?”

‘”First, I am a Han. The women of the Han Family never marry two husbands. If you want me to be your princess, you can. But you must ask Qin Mubai to write a divorce certificate to divorce me. Then you can officially marry me with grand etiquette.” Wu Meiniang said, “If I can’t do it, I will be charged with infidelity and will be sent to hell in the future … Mm, it’s equivalent to receiving the severest punishment from the Prophet. And you will also be punished!”

‘”Well” Chahar touched his beard, nodded and smiled. “Can Qin Mubai write a divorce certificate?”

“Yes.” Wu Meiniang said firmly, “He doesn’t want me anymore, just that he doesn’t have an excuse. Write to him and tell him that he’s eager to dump me. Perhaps he’ll be grateful that you’ve done him a big favor and let him have a good time with other women!”

“Beauty, don’t try to lie to me!” Chahar Meng smiled strangely. “What if Qin Mubai receives my letter and instead of writing a letter of divorce, he sends hundreds of thousands of troops to beat me?”

“What, Your Highness, are you afraid?” Wu Meiniang smiled coldly, “You want to steal other people’s women, but you’re afraid that others will take revenge-since you don’t have the guts, don’t touch me!”

Wu Meiniang’s words could be said to have stabbed the most sensitive and painful part of a man.

“Nonsense, I will be afraid of him!” Chahar Meng slapped the table and said, “I, Kang Country, control 200,000 strings. With the help of General Norman’s 300,000 troops, I will be able to wipe out all the invincible wars in the Western Regions! At that time, I will be the king of all the countries in the Western Regions!-No, not only the king, I will also become an emperor! I will sit on equal footing with the Tang Dynasty’s emperor, Li Shimin!”

Once again, Wu Meiniang felt like she was vomiting-a frog at the bottom of a well, wanting to be the emperor while bathing in a monkey’s crown!

“Your Royal Highness, your ambition is admirable. You said that you want to marry me as your princess and become your emperor. But before that, you have to save your life!” Wu Meiniang said lightly.

Chahar Meng was stunned. “Where did you start? I’m about to become the king of Kang Ju Kingdom. Who would dare to kill me?”

“There are quite a few people who want to kill you, and there are also quite a few who dare to kill you.” Wu Meiniang smiled faintly, her laughter unfathomable. She said, “Not to mention far away, there is one near!”

“Who?”

“Don’t you think?” Wu Meiniang said, “Alright, let me remind you. The royal family of Kang Juguo has never been good at politics, diplomacy and military warfare. Isn’t that an indisputable fact?”

“I, I am different from my ancestors!” Chahar Mon immediately felt embarrassed and retorted, “None of my ancestors knew how to fight, nor did they know how to diplomacy. I know!”

“Alright, even if you do.” Wu Meiniang suppressed her laughter and said, “But can you change the fact that Kang Juguo’s army is not strong overnight?” Although you control 200,000 strings, you have always been subservient to the Norland of the Western Turks. Before that, your native Sogdians were defeated by the fleeing Great Moon Clan of the Xiongnu and merged into the nine surnames of Zhaowu. Now, you want to than the big moon people, more powerful than Norland opponent, please come to the kang to help you stabilize the throne against foreign enemies-ask, why should the Arabs listen to a weaker than their fingers and feet? They have ostensibly agreed to form an alliance with you because they want you to open the border line. Once they entered, they would no longer have any scruples! They can easily trample Kang Ju Nation to the ground and cripple you, the king, instead. Or maybe they are in a better mood and want you to be a puppet king with nothing! “At that time, not to mention being an emperor, you will not even be able to protect the people of Kang Country and your wife and children!”

Chaharmont was stunned. “Nurman wouldn’t do that! He’s my good friend!”

“Haha, in the face of war and politics, there are no eternal friends. There are only eternal interests. The people of Kang are good at business. You will definitely understand this.” Wu Meiniang said, “Perhaps you will have a period of glory. When the Arabs get familiar with the situation in the Western Regions and gain a foothold here, you will be meaningless to them. Think about it yourself. It’s like doing business. He can make a profit of the same size. Why should he split it with you?”

Chahar Mon’s expression instantly changed!

The Kang royal family has always been politically and militarily weak and incompetent, resulting in Kang Juguo has been courting for hundreds of years, almost becoming the laughingstock of the world. However, the Kang people were all talented businessmen, which was undoubtedly true.

Wu Meiniang’s analogy with doing business made Chahar Mon, whose political intelligence was not outstanding, feel as if he had just woken up from a dream!

“My smart beauty, what you said makes sense!” Chahar Mon stood up and paced up. His anxious expression had been swept away and replaced by anxiety and anger. He said, “I understand. Balerihan has been encouraging me to seize the throne. He must have been bribed by Nurman long ago. He is a treacherous official!” He is like a butler of a merchant’s house, and even if his master goes bankrupt, he can still be a butler of another merchant-and he wants to steal the wealth of his former master in exchange for a stronger and wealthier master! ”

“Yes, that’s the truth!” Wu Meiniang was secretly pleasantly surprised, and said indignantly, “If I marry you to be the princess, and you are robbed of everything by the servants, then I will also be in great trouble!” So, I can’t watch you fall for his trap! Many dynasties in the history of the Central Plains have long proved that after the country was destroyed and the family was destroyed, ministers could still be ministers after changing into royal uniforms, but the fate of monarchs has always been the most miserable! That’s why Balerihan did this. He was the one who really betrayed the country and collaborated with the enemy! Just as the wise prince said, he wanted to borrow the power of outsiders to seize the wealth of his master, and then change to a stronger and richer master to continue to be his butler! As for you, my poor prince, perhaps you will be reduced to a prisoner of the next rank, or even have a different body! In that case, I’d rather die now than marry you! I don’t want to be humiliated or widowed! ”

“My smart beauty, thank you for reminding me!” Prince Chahar Mon woke up from his dreams and excitedly grabbed Wu Mei Niang’s hand and kissed her on the back. “I know what to do! I swear, this traitor Balerihan, he will pay a heavy price for rebelling against the king and the prophet’s teachings!” Prince Chahar Mon kissed Wu Mei Niang on the back of her hand.

Wu Meiniang forcefully suppressed the disgust and anger that seeped into her bones, causing her to kiss on the back of her hand and say excitedly, “My wise prince, the Kang Kingdom has a great and wise king like you, and will definitely impose prosperity and power in the future!” Go and get Qin Mubai’s divorce papers and prepare to marry me! “Then, you must be careful when dealing with this cunning old fox, Balerihan … I don’t want to be widowed before I get through the door!”

Chahar Meng’s heart was instantly filled with joy as he stretched out his arms to embrace Wu Meiniang.

Wu Meiniang dodged sharply and said seriously, “Your Highness, you can’t touch me before you marry me, because I’m still someone else’s wife-taking away wives and daughters. This will violate the prophet’s doctrine and be punished severely! And I will also carry the infamy of uncleanliness on my back and fall into Ah Nisi Hell to be tortured to death!”

“Uh! … Alright, alright!” Chahar Mon gulped down his saliva.

Wu Meiniang smiled charmingly and said softly, “Let’s get down to business first.”

Chahar Mont’s bones almost went limp. “Alright! I’ll arrange men right away-I’ll deal with the traitor Balerihan first, and then I’ll marry you as my princess!”

“Alright, hurry up and go. You must be careful!”

Chahar Meng strode away, as excited as if he had beaten a chicken’s blood.

Wu Meiniang heaved a sigh of relief and sat down limply. She felt a layer of cold sweat on her back. She gritted her teeth and cursed softly, “Stupid idiot, I was smarter than you when I was eight years old. Just because you want to touch me? I don’t know how long you can lie to him. I hope they can really turn themselves around. Even if they can’t, it’s good to delay.”

“Mubai, I didn’t expect this trip to be so difficult. I encountered many unexpected dangers. I don’t know if I can deal with them anymore. It wasn’t difficult to escape, but if the Arabian army really entered the Western Regions, it would be another heaven-shattering calamity! At that time, wouldn’t you, Anxi Protector-General, be the one to deal with it? It would be endless war and destruction! –I just want to find a peaceful and prosperous land in the Western Regions, so that you can retreat away from disputes and spend the rest of your life peacefully. Why is it so difficult? “
