Chapter 002: Ten Miles of Red Makeup
"When I came out of Baling, I took this road. β
The morning light is faint, the official road north of Qinzhou has a group of people and horses on the convoy slowly, lazily leaning against the car wall in the morning and evening, from the half-open window to see the endless field on the verdant, they are still walking on the official road, is the only official road from Qinzhou to Huaiyin, twelve years ago, morning and evening is from here to Huaiyin.
Chaoxi sighed lightly, and leaned on the car window with one hand on his cheeks, "When we came out of Baling, our brother and sister were not without anything, in the end, they were surnamed Feng, and the slaves had some money. β
Zi Xi sat on the side seat, a moment ago she asked about the things of Chao Xi, Chao Xi is a native of Shu, now leaving Huaiyin to go to Baling, Chao Xi is really back to the mother country, Zi Xi asked on a whim, Chao Xi is obviously in a good mood today, and can talk about it, hearing this, Zi Wei frowned, "It's really hateful, Huaiyin Marquis Mansion is a very unlucky place, hmph, now they are going to be seized and it can be regarded as retribution!"
Listening to Zi Xun's words calmly, she frowned and looked at the carriage that walked in front of them, from this morning, Shang Jue and her took the carriage separately, she knew that Shang Jue was going to deal with Yan's internal affairs.
There is nothing wrong with dividing the car, she is happy and relaxed, she put down the curtain of the car and leans on a different posture, and picked up a book casually, these books are all Shang Jue for her to find on the way to relieve boredom, the book she picked up is a miscellaneous book, and before she saw a few pages, Zi Wei held a book and handed it to Chaoxi, "Princess, you should read this now!"
Chaoxi raised her eyebrows, lowered her eyes, and saw that what Zi Jing was holding in her hand was not a book, but a roster, she raised her hand to take it, and as soon as she opened it, her eyes darkened, and Zi Wei said busily beside her, "This is also sent by His Royal Highness, I didn't say that the princess must see it, but the slave thinks you should take a look, otherwise how to deal with it when you get to Baling?"
Chaoxi looked at the book in his hand and his eyes narrowed slightly......
Shang Jue silently sent the details of the personnel of the court and harem of the Shu Kingdom, from the living habits of the Jiaofang Palace where the queen is located, to the preferences of the stewards of the dining room, which are all written in detail on this list, and as for the court, it is even more detailed, not only indicating the official position and factional party disputes, but even whether his family members are related to the court affairs are also written, it is such a detailed and outrageous booklet, if it were not for Zixing's reminder, she might even miss it!
Chaoxi frowned, what was Shang Jue thinking?!
Since she is ready to return to Shu, she will not be prepared at all, but in contrast, the booklet in her hand is much more detailed, day and night carefully flip through a few pages, the hand holding the book is clenched for a while, Shang Jue can be so clear about the internal affairs of Shu, and even the personnel in the harem know more clearly than her! In today's world, each vassal state will send more or less detailed work to other countries, and there are many hidden things on the booklet that Shang Jue gave her, where can ordinary fine work be explored?
The Yan Kingdom is indeed powerful, but could it be that the Yan Kingdom understands every vassal state so clearly?
Or is it ...... It's just that it's so ...... for Shu
She clearly knew that even if she only faced one Shu Kingdom, it would take a lot of effort to know so much, let alone the twelve vassal states and the royal family, but what reason did Yan Guo have to pay so much attention to Shu Kingdom? One in the south and the other in the north, if it weren't for Shang Jue's sudden decision to form an alliance with her, there would be no connection between Yan and Shu for about a hundred years!
Chaoxi's brows furrowed for a while, how deep is the water in Yan Kingdom?!
"Princess, what's wrong?
Zi Wei was simple-minded, but she was afraid that she wouldn't think of so much for a while, so she shook her head, "No problem, it's good." β
Ziyun's eyes lit up when she heard this, "It's okay, it's okay! The things sent by His Highness must be things that can help the princess......"
Chaoxi pulled his lips...... This booklet will really help her!
As he was talking, there was a sudden knocking sound at the door of the carriage, and he responded with a "enter" in response to the morning and evening, and the body of the carriage curtain was lifted and suddenly leaned in, she was holding a small letter bucket in her hand, which was printed with a bird's wing pattern, and the pendant stepped forward and handed it over respectfully, and her tone was a little solemn, "Master, the news that has just arrived, please take a look." β
As soon as he saw the pattern on the letter barrel, Chaoxi's brows wrinkled slightly, raised his hand to take it, took out the letterhead inside and opened it, and the few crosses on it instantly met Chaoxi's eyes, Chaoxi frowned, and his eyes instantly revealed two points of murderous aura!
Zi Jing and Shen'er looked at each other and didn't dare to speak, and they were silent for a moment and handed the letterhead directly to Shen'er.
"Send it to His Royal Highness the deceased son, and burn it after seeing it. β
Shen'er took the folded letterhead, turned around and walked out.
The wheels were still rolling, and I had a headache on my forehead.
Zi Jing poured a cup of tea and handed it to Chaoxi, and said in a somewhat hesitant tone, "Princess, have you encountered something very difficult?"
Chaoxi took the teacup and took a sip, shaking his head helplessly.
"It's nothing, it's just that someone doesn't want me to go back to Baling. β
Zi Xing's eyes suddenly opened when she didn't know what to think, "Could it be ......?"
Chaoxi put down the teacup and smiled lightly, "It's no surprise, there are too many people in Baling who don't want me to go back." β
Zi Xun bit his lip nervously for a moment, but suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves outside the carriage, lifted the curtain and looked, but saw that it was the imperial horse of Zhan Jiucheng coming over, he clenched his fist into the carriage for a moment, "Princess, our Royal Highness invites you to go to the carriage in front." β
Chaoxi frowned slightly, "Sue your Highness, you don't need it now." β
Zhan Jiucheng seemed to want to stop talking outside, but looking at the cold side face of Chaoxi in the car, he didn't say much, nodded, and turned around and walked back, Ziyun put the curtain of the car down, looking at Chaoxi's expression a little resentful, "Your Highness must be worried about the princess so you want to share the car with the princess, with Your Highness here, the princess is safer." β
child
Ahh β
Zi Wei said and sighed, "The princess has reached such a point with Her Royal Highness, how can she still be so slashed?"
Hearing this, Chaoxi immediately raised his eyebrows, "How far have I gotten with him?"
Zi Wei blinked, "The princess is the future lady of the prince, Her Royal Highness's dowry has arrived in Yan Kingdom, why does the princess still want to regret it......?"
Zi Jing said with a thin layer of red on her face, and felt that such words were too presumptuous and gave rise to two points of fear, a pair of big eyes looked at Chaoxi cautiously, for fear that she would be angry, and the corners of Chaoxi's lips moved to retort, "I ......"
I can't say the word "I" again, in the eyes of outsiders, it is already a fact that the two of them sleep together, she is naturally Shang Jue's person, thinking of this day and night, the corners of her lips pursed fiercely, and she was about to say something more, but the carriage stopped all of a sudden, Chaoxi and Zi Jing frowned together, but they heard the guards driving outside shouting "Your Highness", Zi Wei was stunned for a moment, and then shouted happily!
"Ah, it's Your Highnessβ"
As soon as the words fell, the curtain of the car was lifted by a big hand with distinct bones, Shang Jue got into the carriage with a stack of folds in his hand, Zi Jue hurriedly made room for Shang Jue, and just made a good place for Ma Jue to flash out, Zi Jue's face was not gone, Shang Jue looked at her rabbit-like back and frowned, "What's wrong?"
Chaoxi knew what was wrong with Zi Ying, and was quite annoyed when he remembered Zi Ying's words, so he only turned his face away, "Not much." β
Shang Jue sat down with an "oh" and sighed, "Let them prepare a bigger carriage tomorrow, there are still some folds in front that have not been moved, since you don't want to move, I have to come to you." β
Chaoxi frowned, "It's not necessary. β
Shang Jue shook her head and didn't say much, she looked at the fold to herself, the carriage moved forward again, and she finally softened her look when she saw Shang Jue looking like she wouldn't get out of the car, she swept it casually, and saw Shang Jue's white and clean fingers holding an ink-colored thin wolf hair, which showed more and more that his ten fingers were slender, which was the most beautiful hand that she had ever seen.
Shang Jue, who was fascinated for a while, suddenly raised his eyes, "It's really nothing?"
Chaoxi was stunned for a moment, and then she realized that Shang Jue was asking about Zixing's strangeness, she opened her mouth to refute, but Shang Jue suddenly leaned over and approached her for two points, and was forced to lean back, Shang Jue's hand had stretched straight towards her face, it was her stunned kung fu, her earlobes were pinched by his warm fingertips, "Then why are your ears red?"
Chao Xi was stunned by his series of actions, and the next moment his eyebrows were fiercely raised, and he slapped his hand away with one palm, and his tone was a little tight, "If you do this again, you will go back to the carriageββ"
Chaoxi was full of anger, like an angry hedgehog, Shang Jue looked at the red mark on the back of his hand and smiled slightly, his eyes raised and looked at Chaoxi's earlobe, and looked at the back of his hand for a moment, as if he was more red than that, Chaoxi's back was straight, his eyebrows were frowning, and his eyes were even more cold like a knife, Shang Jue smiled slightly and brushed his sleeves to cover the red mark on the back of his hand, but without saying a word, he lowered his head to look at the fold in his hand, and there was no place to vent his anger in the morning, and the anger of Shang Jue was slowly faded when he watched Shang Jue's detailed instructions on the fold, and no one in the carriage said anything for a whileγ
I don't know if Shang Jue knew that he had angered the day and night or the government affairs were too busy, he didn't tease the day and night all day, the day and night never talked much, the two of them passed most of the day without incident, until sunset, this group of convoys arrived at the real Qinzhou City, and the battle of the nine cities immediately reported forward, "Your Highness, Lord Yu Kun has been waiting outside the city for a long time, and the accompanying officials are also waiting outside the city, and they are all waiting to see you now, do you see them......?
Chaoxi frowned when she listened, and the ceremonial officials greeted her outside the city, but why couldn't she see her when she entered the city?
Shang Jue raised his eyes and looked over, "They were stationed outside the city and did not enter the city. β
In a word, the confusion was solved, but the day and night were even more confused, the dignified Yan Guo dowry team was rejected from the city? !
Shang Jue didn't say much, only said the word "see" outside the carriage.
Zhan Jiucheng fought the horse and left, and after a while, the carriage stopped slightly, Shang Jue put down the book in his hand and handed out a hand to Chaoxi, "Come with me to meet them, when you enter the city, you really can't see them." β
Chaoxi squinted her eyes for a moment, just when Shang Jue thought she would refuse, she stretched out her hand and put it in Shang Jue's palm, Shang Jue raised her eyebrows, smiled with satisfaction, and led Chaoxi out of the carriage.
The sunset melts gold, under the dazzling afterglow, a dazzling red pavement from under the city wall of Qinzhou all the way to the south, looking at it from afar, it is impossible to see the end for a while, the Yanzi flag, the carriage and the horse are craggy, you don't need to think much about it day and night to know what it is, these ten miles of red makeup, are all thousands of miles to send the Yanguo dowry, such a formation, how can Qinzhou City be placed? !
