In the blink of an eye, it was the eighteenth day of the first month. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Blanche, an overseas mission, submitted his resignation to the Great Zhou Emperor.

"Emperor of the Great Zhou, the Great Zhou is a beautiful country, and we will report what we see to our king. Blanche bowed solemnly, and then said.

The emperor laughed heartily, there is nothing more wonderful than others praising their country.

"Blanche, if I hadn't been able to leave, I would have liked to see what kind of country you have that can produce such plump and crystalline pearls!"

There was a hint of pride on Blanche's face, if they were second when it came to pearls, then there would be no first in this world!

"Emperor Da Zhou, I hope you can keep your promise and treat our princess well, and our king will have a child with the princess. Blanche thought of the princess, and a trace of helplessness flashed in his heart, he didn't even know how to tell the king, according to the king's temperament, he might not kill the Great Zhou.

"My words are true. The emperor was a little displeased, but still pressed down, "I will not send you far away, in order to show respect, I originally planned to let our second assistant of the Great Zhou go to Nanyang with you as a guest, but he disappointed me too much, I can only send someone else, one day, my heir can be alone, I will definitely go overseas to find you, float a big white!"

The more the emperor spoke, the more excited he became, as if he had seen the picture of himself going to the South Seas by boat, and the two of them were white.

Blanche was also very excited.

And Li Yue, the second prince and others, who saw off Blanche with the emperor, heard this, their eyes flashed, and they didn't know what they were thinking.

"Farewell!"

Blanche walked forward without looking back, jumped on his horse, looked back at the Great Zhou courtiers who saw him off, waved his hand, and then flicked his whip and galloped forward.

The baggage wagon beside him also began to move slowly.

They are a country on horseback, everyone can ride horses, but Da Zhou is not like this, this time it is a civilian official who follows Blanche overseas, and there are also a number of escorts, so in fact, their speed is not fast.

A large part of the Great Zhou guards were on foot.

Zhou Yece immediately stepped forward and caught up with Blanche, who was the chief of the guard who was ordered to escort Blanche to the seaside port and was responsible for their safety.

The envoy who went overseas was Lord Xie Zhengxie, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, and the emperor appointed him as the supreme person in charge of the mission.

Xie Zheng is a person who can speak well, such a person, who is exquisite, it stands to reason that he should not be just a waiter of the Ministry of Rites, but he is unwilling to move in this position, and the emperor has nothing to do with him.

In fact, when the emperor asked him to envoy to Nanyang, he refused, but the emperor made him compromise with a light word.

"Xie Aiqing has been in the position of the waiter of the Ministry of Rites for so many years, and it is time to be promoted, but the secretary of the Ministry of Rites often proposes to me to ask you to take his place, so that he can tell the old man to return to his hometown, I think this proposal is good. ā€

Xie Zheng was anxious on the spot and decisively agreed to send an envoy to Nanyang.

In fact, apart from him, the Ministry of Rites can't come up with other decent people to envoy to Nanyang, so you can't let the elderly Ministry of Rites Shangshu go!

Xie Zheng also knew this and agreed.

The emperor's words ostensibly wanted to promote him, but in fact he was beaten, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites didn't have to be him, if he didn't want to do it, some people would do it!

However, Xie Zheng Xie Shilang has a big drawback, that is, he can't ride a horse.

Therefore, Xie Shilang, who was supposed to accompany Blanche on a horse ride in front, was embellished in the carriage behind.

No matter how reluctant Zhou Ye was, he could only accompany Blanche, and he couldn't let people go back to find fault with Da Zhou's etiquette after he went to Da Zhou.

This is also Zhou Ye's second mission in addition to the mission of protecting the mission, chatting!

For this task, Zhou Ye is a hundred unwilling, but who made him cheap, and inadvertently revealed the fact that he knows the dialect of Nanyang!

Zhou Ye turned around, and he could even see the old man's smiling old face, and when his heart broke, he thought he was coaxing the old man to be happy!

"Let's drive back to the palace!"

When the group of overseas envoys could not be seen, accompanied by the shrill voice of the eunuchs, the emperor and the courtiers returned to the palace.

There was nothing to do in the early court, and the emperor went down in advance.

Sending off overseas missions and cleaning up the court, Li Yue finally had time to relax, he hadn't seen Xiao Qi for a few days, and he couldn't miss it.

But he was stopped by the emperor and asked him to accompany him to Cining Palace to greet the Queen Mother.

"If the Queen Mother knows, you don't go to ask her for the sake of the Gu family's girl, I don't know if the Queen Mother will agree to the marriage between the two of you. The emperor successfully raised Li Yue's hatred.

However, Li Yue directly ignored the threat in the emperor's words, and focused on the two words of marriage, "You want to give us a marriage?"

"I promised the girl of the Gu family to allow her to marry freely, how can I not believe what I say?" The emperor directly used Gu Yanqi as a shield.

Li Yue was silent for a moment, as if he had dug a pit for himself.

Thinking of Xiao Qi's awkward quarrel with himself a few days ago, his heart was dark, he was so busy these days, he didn't have time to explain to Xiao Qi, and after meeting the Queen Mother, he would go to Xiao Qi to explain.

"But you can ask the Queen Mother to give you a marriage. "The emperor said treacherously.

Li Yue glanced at him, the expression on his face was noncommittal, but his heart was greatly moved.

When I arrived at Cining Palace, I unexpectedly saw Gu Yanjiu.

"Imperial Grandmother. ā€

"The Queen Mother. ā€

The emperor and Li Yue greeted the queen mother at the same time.

When the Empress Dowager saw the emperor and Li Yue coming over, she had undisguised happiness on her face, "You are here." ā€

"My grandson misses my grandmother. Li Yue was coaxing the old man to speak sweetly, without the slightest burden.

The corners of the emperor's mouth twitched, if it weren't for him, Li Yue didn't seem to think of the Queen Mother.

But he didn't demolish Li Yue, after all, he was his own son, how could he, the old man, dismantle his son's platform?

"I've seen the emperor!

The emperor shifted his attention to Gu Yanjiu and Yao Yuan, who saluted him, looked at them with strange expressions, and then let the two of them flatten.

"Big ...... Why is Brother Yan Jiu here with the Imperial Grandmother?"

"It's the grass people summoned by the Queen Mother, and the grass people don't know what is going on. Gu Yanjiu shook his head, saying that he didn't know, and he didn't give the emperor a superfluous look during the whole process.

"Imperial Grandmother, what are you asking Brother Yan Jiu to do?" Li Yue glanced at Yao Yuan without a trace, "It won't be to introduce him to a noble girl!"

Gu Yanjiu's face changed when he heard this, and his warm eyes suddenly became distant, looking at the Queen Mother, waiting for the Queen Mother's answer.

"You stinky boy, what nonsense!" Without waiting for the Queen Mother to answer, the emperor directly reprimanded, and then said, "Don't you see that Yuan'er is also there?

Li Yue pursed his lips and was noncommittal.

It was Yao Yuan, who listened to the emperor's words, and his worried heart calmed down, it seems that the emperor did not agree to marry Gu Yanjiu.

I don't know what the Queen Mother thinks, no matter what she says, she has been raised under her knees for so many years, although she is not a princess, and her status is not worthy of a white body!

Even if Gu Yanjiu looks very good, on par with the second prince, but does he have the status of the second prince? He still dares to think about her, he really doesn't know how thick the sky is!
