Chapter 246 Trouble
"Hee-hee, both of them laughed equally badly. Looking at Xiao Yichen and Hou Qingyun's "sinister and cunning" smiles, Yu Xiaoxiang felt very interesting.
Stretching out his hand to pinch his delicate cheeks, Xiao Yichen said viciously: "Just the beauty and kindness of your smile, right? This king helps you change the shape of your face and makes you smile so badly, so as to prove that we are all the way." ”
"Let go, it's painful! Kick you to death!" kicked Xiao Yichen's thigh with his little foot, and barely escaped from the hell of pinching his face, covering his pretty face and rubbing it vigorously, the little beauty glared at the bad guy in front of him angrily. On the contrary, Xiao Yichen was in a good mood, he didn't feel it when he was kicked, and he was rubbing his fingers at the moment, as if he was expressing the meaning of feeling good, which made the little beauty want to pounce on him and bite him a few times.
Hou Qingyun wisely became a blind man, drinking tea by himself without squinting, and just doing his own thing.
Just as Yu Xiaoxiang was thinking about whether to pounce on and bite the bastard who raised his eyebrows and provoked, an inner attendant suddenly knelt down at the entrance of the main hall and said in a loud voice: "Your Highness, Your Highness the Seventh and Eighth Highnesses ask to see you." ”
"Little Seven Little Eight, what are they doing here?" Xiao Yichen muttered, waved his hand and said, "Please." ”
"No. The waiter didn't talk nonsense, and after answering, he got up and left the hall, and after a while, he saw Xiao Weigeng and Xiao Zhukai walking into the hall side by side.
Before the person arrived, Xiao Weigeng's laughter had already sounded: "Third brother, you are really idle here." ”
Watching Xiao Weigeng, who was cranked by hand, appear, Yu Xiaoxiang found that the members of Sheng Jing had been upgraded from F2 to F3 combination, and even began to look forward to when F4 should appear.
"You kid has always been on the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, why did you come with Xiaoba today?" motioned for Yu Xiaoxiang to cook tea for the two, Xiao Yichen didn't need to greet his younger brother at all, they had already found two places closer to sit down.
"Oh, third brother, you hide here and play with the cute young lady, or you are looking for Lord Hou to study the conspiracy and tricks, and the life is leisurely, poor me and Xiaoba want to go to court every day, listen to the admonition of the group of old immortals every day with a handful of snot and tears, or simply threaten to die in the palace to give a death advice. It's a waste of time, a waste of money, and a waste of life!" After sitting down, Xiao Weigeng began to pour bitter water with a sad face.
Xiao Yichen's sword eyebrows raised, and he asked directly: "Zhong Liyi's group of old immortals, are they still biting?"
"A few days ago, everyone seemed to be ready to be brave and righteous at any time, but today I am a little relieved. Xiao Weigeng's eyes followed Yu Xiaoxiang's graceful and delicate body, and he couldn't help but whisper to Xiao Yichen: "Third brother, if you don't accept the house, it's better to give the cute little sister to the little brother." ”
"Are you ready to leave Lingxiao Palace sideways?" Xing glared, cutting off Xiao Weigeng's delusions unceremoniously, Xiao Yichen had a look of "I really want to kill you".
"Seventh brother, you are less poor, let's get down to business with the third brother. Xiao Zhukai is much more honest, and looked at Xiao Yichen at this moment and said: "The father and the eldest brother of the crown prince have discussed for two days but there is no result, and because there are many other miscellaneous matters, let us ask the third brother to see if there is any good way." ”
"What else can be done? Didn't you say before that when the news starts to circulate on the street, is it an opportunity? Why, until now, those foreshadowing haven't been done?" Xiao Yichen hasn't paid much attention to the changes in the outside world recently, and he is really a little confused at the moment.
"No, no. Xiao Zhukai grabbed his hair and said a little embarrassedly: "It's my stupid mouth that didn't make it clear." Today, in the court, the right minister has already proposed that the controversy between the court and China has begun to spread on the streets, and if this continues, the empire will fall into a situation of treachery, which will be a big loss of the national body, and there will also be a danger of severing diplomatic relations with the allies. Therefore, Zhong Liyi and other elders are no longer so insistent. The father also took advantage of this opportunity, and according to the plan arranged by the third brother before, he reluctantly made them agree to tell the truth to Northern Qi. But the problem is that today, when my father is in the court, he wants to let several adults from the Ministry of Rites and the Zongren Department be the chief and deputy officials, but they are all unwilling to serve as left and right. ”
"Actually, it was that group of old guys who knew that if they insisted so much not to tell the Northern Qi, they would have a bad reputation for causing the empire to be treacherous, so they began to shut up and beat their little Jiujiu. But the problem is, if they are allowed to be envoys, will they also have a reputation that will damage the country's body? Maybe the historian will be able to leave a stench for 10,000 years if he writes a note. Naturally, no one wants to go. The father also had a headache for this, if the level of the envoy was too low, then it would not be sincere enough, and he was afraid that he would not be able to say it clearly, and it would be bad in the end. If the level of the envoy is enough, and it is a group, the stomach hurts, the legs hurt, the head hurts, and the whole body hurts, and the goods will be sent into the coffin. Therefore, I want our brother to ask the third brother if there is a good way. Xiao Weigeng said with a smile.
After thinking about it for a while, Xiao Yichen chuckled and shook his head and said, "Father, this emperor is embarrassed to let this king carry the black cauldron." ”
"Hmm? Could it be that my father wants the third brother to take the initiative to go to Northern Qi as an envoy? This is impossible, the third brother is a super prince, if he goes, then Northern Qi will be greeted by the monarch, which does not conform to the rules of diplomatic relations. Xiao Weigeng frowned suspiciously, "What's more, next month is the third brother's 200th birthday, and then it will be the father's birthday and the coming-of-age ceremony of Allure, how can the third brother be allowed to envoy to Northern Qi at this time?"
"No, no, my father will not let this king leave Shengjing no matter what. Xiao Yichen waved his hand, knowing that his younger brothers had misunderstood what he meant, but it was not easy to explain the outbreak of star poison on his body, so he changed the topic and said: "My father wants this king to go to the 'Great Qi Embassy Academy' of the Ministry of Rites, and let this king go and tell the inside story of the long history of the Northern Qi Dynasty in Shengjing." ”
Nodding slightly, frowning again, Xiao Weigeng, who had been thinking for a long time, still asked with some incomprehension: "Since this is the case, just let us go for a run, why do you need the third brother to go out in person?"
"Your Highness the Seventh doesn't know anything. Hou Qingyun, who was holding a feather fan, interjected with a smile: "His Majesty the Holy Monarch's purpose is to establish a stronger alliance with the Northern Qi Dynasty, and the release of the news among the people is also because of the full obstruction of the court such as Lord Zhongli, in other words, it is helpless to silence them in this way." Although this method can allow the government to pass, it is bound to let the people of Northern Qi know that there is a lot of power in our court, and it seems that they are not friendly to them in Northern Qi. That's the shortcoming. Therefore, in order to make up for this shortcoming, it is natural to have someone of sufficient weight to refute the rumors, who do you think would be more suitable than the Third Highness who was even whipped for the sake of the alliance with the Northern Qi Dynasty?"
