Chapter Sixty-Nine: Envoy to Snow Country
In a blink of an eye, it was time to send an envoy to the Snow Country, and long before that, the palace conveyed the specifications of the envoy.
Tianyan will hold an envoy ceremony at the gate of Kyoto, sent by the ministers and Emperor Zhao Yang personally, this time with Tianyan to the snow country, in addition to three thousand attendants, even Xiaoqing is also on the list, but Tianyan is a little surprised.
After eating breakfast early, Tianyan left a letter for Ah Ya'er, and then quietly left the General's Mansion with Zi'er.
Although Tianyan is gone, the Tianjia family is left alone, but there is a backhand left by Tianyan first, I am afraid that the royal family is already anxious at the moment, and then there is Zhang Wuji, and the old man who is bent on "peace" will definitely not let Ah Ya'er have an accident, so Tianyan is still quite relieved.
The wind and the sun were beautiful, Tianyan, Zi'er and Lao Yang rode high-headed horses, walking on the streets of Kyoto, looking at the closer and closer Kyoto city gates. Tianyan couldn't help but feel a trace of sorrow, and when he left, he didn't know when he would be able to come back again.
Zi'er keenly noticed Tianyan's strangeness, and hurriedly leaned over, and her jade hand gently held Tianyan's palm.
With a touch of soft contact, Tianyan came to his senses, handed Zi'er a fine expression, and took the lead towards the city gate.
At the city gate, the guard Wang Da was dressed in armor, saw Tianyan riding a horse, bowed down, and then gave way to Tianyan sideways, which was a very lofty respect for the general.
Tianyan nodded slightly, and the horse galloped through the city gate, passing through the bluestone city gate, and outside the city gate, there were two columns of attendants.
In front of the two columns of attendants, there was a nine-clawed golden dragon dragon made of pure gold, and in the entire Miluo country, except for Emperor Zhao Yang, there was no other person with this treatment.
On both sides of the dragon, there were countless ministers, all of whom were high-ranking and powerful, and when they saw the arrival of Tianyan, they nodded their heads and smiled.
"Heavenly Decree!" Seeing the arrival of Heavenly Words, Cao Maojiang held the Holy Decree in his hand and shouted loudly.
Tianyan jumped off the horse, but did not bow down, but only bowed slightly.
Cao Maojiang frowned, seeing the holy decree and not kneeling, it was a great crime of disrespect, but at the same time, he also knew in his heart that Tianyan's envoy to the Snow Country was imminent, and if Tianyan's sin was cured at this time, he was afraid that it would cause some unnecessary trouble.
"It's okay!" seemed to know Cao Maojiang's thoughts, and a strong voice came from the dragon.
Cao Maojiang bowed his hand slightly to the dragon, and then said to Tianyan: "Fengtian carrier, the emperor said, attached to the Snow Country, it seems that there is a heart of disobedience, and now I have a special order for the Heavenly Family Tianyan to be my special envoy to the Miluo Country to meet with the Lord of the Snow Country." Zir must raise my Miro's majesty and bring the Snow Country back to Miro's rule, and I will do this!"
Tianyan smiled slightly, took the holy decree from Cao Maojiang's hand, and did not say a word.
"The envoy Tianyan will send an envoy to the snow country for my Miro. As he spoke, he saw Zhao Yang slowly walking out of the dragon. said with a smile: "On this trip, you represent my entire Miluo, Aiqing has traveled thousands of miles, and it is extremely inconvenient to carry food, so I specially ordered the household department to open a grain route for you." After getting this news, Long Wanyao, a wealthy businessman in Jiangnan, volunteered to cover all the expenses of Aiqing's trip. Do you think it's okay?"
"Long Wanyao?" The corners of Tianyan's mouth slightly hooked up a touch of evil charm, the royal family actually chose to let Long Wanyao be in charge of his grain and grass, with the strength of the royal family, it must be impossible not to know the grievances between him and the Long family.
This is borrowing the hand of the Long family to deal with himself.
However, if Tianyan understands this, he can only accept it calmly.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. Tianyan replied without being salty.
Zhao Yang patted Tianyan's shoulder with a smile and said: "This time I went to the Snow Country, I worked hard to love Qing, I specially sent Xiaoqing, the general of the White Tiger Gate, to go with you, if you encounter an accident, I may be able to save your life." Zhao Yang's smile looked very fake, and he bit the word accident very hard.
Tianyan arched his hand and did not speak, would the royal family be kind enough to let Xiaoqing protect him?
Seeing that Tianyan didn't speak, Zhao Yang continued: "The road is far away, if Aiqing is fine, let's leave as soon as possible." “
"Then His Majesty Lao will personally send Weichen!"
Tianyan said with a smile, looking back at this prosperous Kyoto, the breeze is not dry, the sun is just right, and it looks like a peaceful and prosperous world.
"I will definitely come back safely!" Tianyan said to himself with a smile, then got up and got on his horse, glanced at Zhao Yang and the ministers with cold eyes, and then waved the horsewhip in his hand and stepped on the horse.
"Wait!" At this moment, a familiar voice suddenly came from the city gate.
Tianyan stopped the horse's hooves, slowly turned his head, and saw that at the city gate, two young men were riding horses.
It is insolence and Lingfeng.
"Why are they here?" Zi'er asked, confused.
Tianyan looked puzzled and did not speak.
The two first saluted Zhao Yang, Zhao Yang nodded slightly, and did not speak.
Then he shouted to Tianyan: "I heard that the snow country is rich in beautiful women, why is this kind of good thing to be enjoyed by one person?"
Ling Feng showed a look of deep approval on his face, and nodded, "Not righteous enough." “
Hearing this, a smile appeared on his face, and anyone with a discerning eye knew that the trip to the Snow Country was dangerous, so he was afraid to avoid it, but he didn't expect that when he traveled today, Zhang Qiang and Ling Feng would actually choose to go with him.
"I thought no one would come, but I didn't expect ......" Tianyan sighed with emotion, he and Zhang Qi were just classmates, and there was no reason to follow him on this trip.
Zhang Mad showed a look of disdain on his face, and said, "But it's not just the two of us? “
As he spoke, Zhang Madness and Ling Feng slowly made way for a way.
Tianyan looked intently, and saw a girl holding a suit of armor and slowly walking from the city gate, it was the second princess Zhao Lin.
Zhao Lin is dressed in a colorful palace dress, with beautiful willow eyebrows, compared to the pure and simple in the past, this time Zhao Lin put on extremely exquisite makeup, it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a peerless beauty, but between the beautiful eyebrows, with a touch of deep melancholy.
Tianyan looked at Zhao Lin who was walking slowly, and was a little overwhelmed for a while.
"Why are you stunned, don't you take this armor away, this princess is very tired of holding it, okay?" Zhao Lin looked at Tianyan and said with a smile, but anyone could see the reluctance in the girl's expression.
Tianyan was stunned, looked at Zhao Lin blankly, and then dismounted and slowly walked towards the latter.
The armor is snow-white, like snow, swallowed into a tiger-like shape on the shoulder, and the whole body is woven with jade threads, which is extremely delicate and exquisite.
Tianyan slowly took the armor into his hand, looked at the girl in front of him, and unconsciously, Tianyan's heart was already full of emotion.
"This is a stitch I sewed, it is a gift I gave to my future husband, you wear it to the snow country, but I lent it to you for self-defense, remember to come back and return me. Zhao Lin muttered and said in a voice that only Tianyan could hear.
"Definitely!" Tianyan held the armor in his hand tightly, and secretly swore in his heart that he would definitely return to Kyoto alive, maybe just for his mother, but now, there is an innocent and a somewhat silly girl.
Zhao Yang saw the scene in front of him, his face instantly became gloomy, it was imperative to eradicate the Heavenly Family, he would never allow his daughter to have too much entanglement with Tianyan.
"Nonsense! My daughter's family is involved in national affairs without authorization, what kind of system has it become?" Zhao Yang finally couldn't hold back the anger in his heart and shouted.
Zhao Lin looked at Zhao Yang a little timidly, obviously extremely afraid of his father. But he still stood in place, helplessly expressing his inner protest to Zhao Yang.
At this moment, a pair of warm hands held Zhao Lin's palm, and Zhao Lin's body trembled suddenly, but when she saw the face that seemed to be the warm sun of winter, she actually felt for a while how good it would be if time stopped at this moment.
Tianyan ignored Zhao Yang on the side, looked at Zhao Lin in front of him gently, and said seriously: "Come with me." “
He really didn't want Zhao Lin to be caught in the muddy waters of Kyoto, if Zhao Lin was willing, he could have settled Zhao Lin in a safe area under the jurisdiction of Qi Tiange.
Zhao Lin was overjoyed, and almost agreed to Tianyan directly, but the next moment, Zhao Lin seemed to think of something.
"I can't go!" Zhao Lin showed a bitter smile on her face.
Looking at Tianyan, Zhao Linyu's hand slowly raised, and her cold fingers roamed over Tianyan's handsome face, as if she wanted to engrave Tianyan's appearance in the bottom of her heart.
Tianyan frowned, Zhao Lin's answer, he was not surprised, if Zhao Lin really left with him, the royal family would be ashamed and angry, and he would also face an even more dangerous situation.
In addition, maybe his mother will also be involved,
And no matter what, Zhao Yang is also his father, even if Zhao Lin wants to, she doesn't have a choice.
Tianyan nodded slightly, took out an emerald green bracelet from his arms, and said, "This bracelet is my family's heirloom, accept this bracelet, and you will be my heavenly family." “
"You...... I heard me right?!" Zhao Lin was so surprised that she couldn't stop talking, obviously she couldn't believe the scene happening in front of her, but a flash of joy quietly flashed in Shui Ling's eyes.
"When I come back, shall I marry you?" Although Tianyan was asking, his hands were not idle at all, and he hugged Zhao Lin who had not yet reacted, for Tianyan, in this world, Zhao Lin's position in Tianyan's heart has unconsciously become different.
"Okay!" Zhao Lin replied directly without thinking, suddenly feeling a sour nose, and tears could not stop flowing
