The 166th sent Tang envoys to the court

The one hundred and sixty-sixth round

Perhaps Ruqi's gaze was too attentive, and the fate master put down the half-eaten purple gold bowl with dignified movements, and turned his eyes to look in the direction of Ruqi.

…… Eyes met in an instant.

For example, when Seven looked at people, he was discovered by the main owner, and he felt very embarrassed; The Yuan Master thought calmly, when did there be a new monk in the Hanlin Academy?

In the canteen of the Hanlin Academy, Ruqi's heart shook after meeting the fate teacher. And Qin Ying, who was outside, heard the news that Su Huan said, and his heart was also fluctuating.

Qin Ying's eyes widened, and he asked with a confused expression, "Didn't Silla send Tang envoys to come for tribute?" Why did those attendants ask His Majesty to show me all kinds of outstanding skills during the day? ”

Su Huan frowned and said, "Those Tang envoys probably want to learn from it. His Majesty summoned strange people and strangers in the market to enter the palace and conferred official titles, which should be to prevent any emergency. Before the state banquet, His Majesty would definitely select the most suitable person to highlight the **** culture from the Hanlin Academy, and raise the national prestige in front of those people. But this is also just speculation. After all, Lord Changshi didn't send a notice......"

He sighed before he finished speaking. Lord Ouyang, the chief of the Hanlin Academy, is a person who has never been in charge of things, and he has to listen to his notice, but he is afraid that he will not be able to catch up with anything.

Qin Ying's face suddenly became solemn. As early as half a month ago, Qin Ying already knew that Silla's envoy to the Tang Dynasty was going to the inner city of Chang'an to present local specialties to show his intention of being a vassal and having diplomatic relations.

Sending Tang envoys to the court, His Majesty must have held a banquet in the Taiji Palace, and then His Majesty will give them various rewards to ensure that when they leave, they will transport more things than when they come.

Banquets have always been a major event, especially the state banquet for foreign envoys to the Tang Dynasty.

The important palace in Miyagi was a few years ago. When His Majesty ascended the throne, he renovated the glory and was quite magnificent, but the flowers and plants inside and outside the hall still need to be arranged.

These days, the hairpin lady, as the garden art of the Hanlin Academy, is waiting for the edict, and she follows the waiter of the Ministry of Rites to shuttle in the palace every day, so she is not busy. Qin Ying could only see her once in the morning.

No matter how hard the hairpin lady worked for the state banquet, Qin Ying would not rise to envy. She feels that she is busy and idle, and she will not give a boost.

And now Su Huan said. Silla's envoy to the Tang Dynasty met with His Majesty today at the Liangyi Palace. Present all kinds of rare treasures, do not ask for heavy rewards, only ask for your majesty to show **** culture.

Qin Ying instinctively felt it. The edicts raised by His Majesty in the Hanlin Academy are now finally useful. This can also be understood accordingly that Qin Ying and other Hanlin Yuan are waiting for edicts, and they will be like hairpin girls in the near future. It's so busy that it's going on day long.

Originally, she was going to follow her colleagues and bosses in the Medicine Collection Bureau to treat His Royal Highness the Prince, who was in a rapidly ill condition. But now that Su Huan told her that the edicts of the Hanlin Academy might have to participate in the state banquet, she could almost imagine the scene of her hard work and illness.

"What's there to sift through. The edicts of the Hanlin Academy have a few catties and a few taels, isn't it clear in His Majesty's heart? Qin Ying put his hands behind his back and walked around in front of Su Huan's eyes. It could be seen that Qin Ying was in a very bad mood, because her steps were chaotic, "Your Majesty Chrysostom said." Isn't it enough to choose a candidate? Otherwise, let the courtiers jointly recommend ......"

Su Huan held his chin and said solemnly: "Ouyang Changshi of the Hanlin Academy recommends it." Fang is more convincing. However, he is now delirious, and outsiders do not know, but we are clear. Whoever Lord Ren Ouyang recommends, the person who is recommended will become the target of public criticism.

"Although there are few people in the Hanlin Academy, and they all look lazy, they also have the heart of fame to get ahead. If you participate in the state banquet, the limelight will be incomparable for a while. It would be foolish not to seize such a good opportunity to become famous. He summed up the word "stupid" succinctly.

Qin Ying thought about Su Huan's words, and when she compared her thoughts, she felt that she was a little naΓ―ve. It seems that things will indeed evolve, as Su Huan expected. She silently smoothed out and reluctantly relieved.

Su Huan saw that Qin Ying's face was entangled, and joked: "There are a total of thirteen people in the Hanlin Academy, and I think the most suitable person for the state banquet is the hairpin lady." She herself is good-looking, kneeling in front of the case and inserting a vase of flowers, those Tang envoys who have never seen elegant art must have thrown themselves to the ground. ”

When Qin Ying heard this, he immediately connected with what Ling Fengyu had said to him in the morning, and immediately felt that since the Silla envoy sent Tang to make a request in this way, he probably had something to do with it.

"I hope that Silla's envoys to the Tang Dynasty can really be fooled by the will." She stopped and muttered.

Ruqi in the dining hall retracted his gaze, got up and brought the empty dishes to the palace attendants, leaned over with his hands and bowed, and then walked out calmly, he saw that Qin Ying was talking to people, so he stood in a corner of the dining hall and waited.

Qin Ying and Su Huan were discussing in full swing, she couldn't see Ruqi's figure, Ruqi was hung by her like this, until the Yuanshi came out and walked straight to Ruqi.

Ruqi's expression was very tense, and he hurriedly folded his hands and bowed: "Amitabha." The end of his voice was still trembling, just like his nervous state of mind at this time.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Are you a disciple of the Taoist Master of Xuanzhong Temple? After the Yuan Master leaned over and saluted back, his clear eyes looked at Ruqi's face, turned to his wrist again, and asked softly. Originally, it was rude to ask a strange Buddhist friend as soon as he opened his mouth, but the tone of the Yuan teacher was very gentle, and Ruqi didn't feel offended.

Ruqi nodded and reported his name, and then added: "The little monk is the last personal disciple of the Taoist master. ”

"I have admired the name of the teacher for a long time." When the master learned that this Ruqi, who suddenly appeared here, was from the disciple of the Taoist master, infinite admiration rose in his heart. He stretched out his right hand and made a gesture of invitation, "The poor monk is the edict of the Hanlin Academy, if the initiates have nothing to do, you might as well go to the poor monk's room to sit." ”

Ruqi also wanted to make friends with this person, and he was about to agree, but he thought that he was following Qin Ying here, and if he left rashly, it might make Qin Ying annoyed for no reason, so he hesitated.

Thinking like this, Ruqi glanced at Qin Ying in the distance.

The fate master was extremely sensitive, and immediately guessed that Ruqi should know Qin Ying. He folded his sleeves and approached Qin Ying and Su Huan. At this time, Qin Ying just muttered that he hoped that it would be easy to be fooled by sending Tang envoys, and the Yuan Master overheard the second half of the sentence, and felt a little inexplicable.

However, he didn't care, and said to Qin Ying: "The poor monk has recently got a new southern tea, if the two of you have nothing to do in the afternoon, why don't you go to the house for a drink?" ”

The tea art of the master is the same as his painting skills, which is unmatched. Even if eight out of ten people can make tea, the taste of the tea is far inferior to his.

Qin Ying and Su Huan heard that there was good tea to drink, and happily agreed.
