Chapter 147: The Envoy's Visit

"What?" Helian heard Fu Yanxi's words from Yu, and it was a little strange. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Huh? It's nothing. Fu Yanxi realized that she had missed her mouth again, and hurriedly covered it up: "Then do you know the reason for the drought in Huaibei?" Did it really hurt the dragon vein? ”

Helian Congyu knew that Fu Yanxi intended to conceal it, so he didn't ask more, so he said: "Digging a canal blocks the underground water flow, and when the canal is filled, dredge the blocked place, and there will naturally be water in the dry well." Only those who believe in strange powers will think that this is really a villain. ”

"Speaking of which, this time, the prince was not unjustly punished. For so many years, he has been low-key and introverted, allowing the third prince and the fifth prince to fight in the dark, he is unmoved, and some officials under him think that he has lost his fighting spirit and has long left his heart, so he is also unscrupulous. It is not a good thing to take this opportunity to clean up. Helian Congyu said.

Fu Yanxi looked at Helian Congyu's side face. She felt more and more that Helian Congyu's identity was very secretive. And it must be not easy to know so many things.

She had always guessed that Helian Congyu must have had a secret connection with the emperor, and many times he seemed to be an excellent wedge that the emperor had planted outside the palace, waiting for a certain opportunity to open a new curtain. And this is also true of her father Fu Qingyan.

Now that I think about it carefully, Helian fell into the Dingbei Marquis Mansion from when Yu was seriously injured, and many times when something major happened in Beijing, it was also when he could come to see her. Thinking about it this way, isn't it ......?

No wonder Helian Congyu trusts her so much. Fu Yanxi said in her heart.

Helian Congyu trusts her very much now, no matter what the reason, and the two even ...... So should she tell him everything about herself?

At present, the situation is uncertain, and many things are still cloudy, so it is not a good time, so let's wait.

"What do you think, next, what will the emperor do to that cloth cloth chief? Now he can't escape it. Fu Yanxi asked.

"He has a high reputation in the capital, and rashly disposing of him may cause the people to resign, so the emperor will not treat him badly. What's more, it doesn't hurt to keep the chess pieces that can manipulate the people's hearts in this way. ”

Half a month passed in an instant, the situation in the court changed, and the banquet of the five countries also arrived as scheduled.

The Five Kingdoms Imperial Banquet was an agreement between the four countries around Great Wei, namely Beichen, Tangling, Nanyue, and Xitang, and Great Wei. Once every three years, we discuss peace, exchange trade, and marry each other. The importance of the banquet of the five countries is actually equivalent to the status of the war between countries.

Even if the Five Kingdoms Imperial Banquet could not stop the war, it still brought certain benefits to the Great Wei and other countries, so this tradition continues to this day.

At the beginning of August, the emperor lifted the ban on the crown prince in the name of the imminent banquet of the five kingdoms, and ordered the prince and the king of Duanyang to receive the envoys of the four countries into Beijing and stay in the Sifang Pavilion in the capital. In this way, the courtiers knew that the status of the crown prince would not be shaken at least in the short term, and all the forces of all parties were happy and sad in the face of this scene.

Imperial Palace, Taiqing Garden. The banquet of the Five Kingdoms was held in this open-air royal garden.

The sky is getting late, and the palace lights are lit up everywhere, lining the dark night like day, and the scenery is magnificent.

"I would like to invite the envoys of the four countries to meet me!" The eunuch shouted.

Fu Yanxi followed Fu Qingyan and Fu Zichen to sit on the left side of the emperor, and looked out curiously when he heard the sound.

I saw four men with different images and very different appearances striding side by side from outside the garden, and behind them were a string of their respective entourages and gifts.

"The minister Gui is the Taishi of the Nanyue Kingdom, and he is ordered by my lord to participate in the Great Wei Emperor, long live long live long live." The first middle-aged man was thin and small, and it was the Taishi Gui of Nanyue Kingdom, who stepped forward and bowed as a courtesy, but did not kneel. It is also an agreement between the five countries, so that no one country may exalt or degrade itself in terms of etiquette.

With a wave of his hand, the entourage behind him immediately carried a large box. "This is the supreme treasure of the Immortal Sea of the Divine Mountain of the Contempt Country, as a gift, to His Majesty the Emperor of Great Wei. to show the sincerity of our Lord's restoration. "Nanyue is near the sea, and for Wei, who lives far inland, things in the sea are rare and rare.

"There is a noble envoy, the sincerity of your lord, I already know, your envoy has traveled a long way, please take a seat." The Emperor said with a smile. It's just that the people of the palace carried the box down, but they didn't open it to watch.

Gyu bowed and walked to his seat.

"Mu Wei, the envoy of the Xitang Kingdom, see His Majesty the Emperor of Great Wei." Another strangely dressed man stepped forward and said.

Then he asked a veiled woman on the side of her side to say: "This time, in order to show sincerity, His Majesty the King specially asked the minister to bring the supreme splendid pearl of Xitang Kingdom. This is the princess of Shaohua in our country, the pearl of my majesty's palm, this time with the envoy to come, intending to form a marriage with the Wei Dynasty, willing to choose a family to tie the knot, but also ask His Majesty the Emperor for permission. ”

"Shaohua, see His Majesty the Emperor of Great Wei." As soon as the words fell, Princess Shaohua behind him bowed down and saluted, her voice was gentle and beautiful, and she thought that she was a beauty who captivated the country and the city.

"What's so difficult about this," said the emperor, "I will ask you two to sit down for a while, and then I will see which of my sons or sons of which family, as it is." ”

"Your Majesty Emperor Xie." When the two of them heard this, they bowed and retreated.

As soon as the emperor said this, from the crown prince, the third prince to the fifth prince, they all lowered their heads without a trace. If she was really taken by the princess of Xitang Kingdom and married as the imperial concubine, she would basically have no fate with the throne.

Fu Yanxi looked at the back of Princess Shaohua, her posture was graceful, and she walked lightly, with a bit of the appearance of a Dawei woman, but she was not like a woman in Xitang Country who was in the wilderness, with simple folk customs and lax etiquette.

You must know that the two maids behind her are both big-handed and big-footed. That's weird.

Then came the envoys of the Tanglin Kingdom. As soon as the man came in, it was difficult for Fu Yanxi to ignore the strong killing intent on his body. Even Fu Qingyan and Fu Zichen's faces were much more serious because of his arrival.

Although this person was dressed in a wide robe and big sleeves, like a civil official, Fu Yanxi concluded that he must be a military general.

Sure enough, this person opened his mouth, and although his voice was not loud, it was strong and rough: "Chen Baigui has seen His Majesty the Emperor." "Casual salutation, disrespectful, very rude.

Sitting at the head of the officials was the prime minister of the dynasty, but also the father of the imperial princess, Leng Zhouyang, who was sixty years old, and when he saw this situation, he wanted to accuse him on the spot, but was stopped by the emperor with his eyes.
