Chapter 33: How to Bear to Leave

During today's Spring Festival, many vassal states of the Ming Dynasty sent envoys to the Hajj to pay tribute, including Annam, Siam, Ryukyu, Samarkand and Java, but the Li Dynasty mission was not seen.

The banquet had been prepared early, and the envoys of all the countries had been waiting a little impatiently, especially the head of the Javanese mission, who had already taken the case and said something with a very unhappy expression.

Zhu Youjiao's face was not wavering, this loud noise did not bring him back to his senses, his face was a little dark, he seemed to be very tired, probably because of last night's incident, Zhang Junfang fulfilled his appointment, but he stood in the north wind and waited for two hours.

Zhu Jianshen was shocked, glanced at the envoys of Java, and the queen also heard the prestige, and saw Zhu Jianshen's shocked appearance, and hurriedly walked to caress him, and the envoys of Java couldn't help but bow their heads in shame when they saw the Ming Emperor with such a look.

Empress Wang glanced at the people dressed as civil servants standing on the right side of the court, "Liu Shaoqing, what did he just say?"

Liu Shaoqing, who was the leader, was a little timid, and replied hesitantly: "He said that the beauties who have heard the Ming Dynasty have come down to earth like immortals, and the wine is like elixir and jade liquid, but now they can't see the beauties, they can't taste the wine, and they look at it with empty eyes!"

Zhu Jianshen laughed when he heard this, "The Javanese ambassador is informal, heroic and straightforward, and I admire him." ”

Liu Shaoqing immediately translated it to the envoys of Java.

The Javanese envoy was a little embarrassed to hear this, touching the back of his head and smirking, but he looked naΓ―ve.

"Your Majesty", Huai'en, who was standing beside Zhu Jianshen, bowed his head and whispered, "I'm afraid that the envoys of the Li Dynasty will not come today." ”

Zhu Jianshen frowned, "The Li Dynasty pays tribute every year, and yesterday the Huitong Pavilion also sent someone to inform that the Li Dynasty's envoy had already moved into the South Pavilion, so how could it not come today." ”

"Your Majesty", Wynne secretly looked at the envoys of various countries, and then looked embarrassed, "You can't wait any longer, how can you delay the auspicious time." ”

As soon as Huai En finished speaking, a group of people came in from outside the hall, all dressed as Li Chaoren.

As soon as those people came in, they bowed to the ground, "The ministers knock on His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, long live, long live, long live." ”

"Let's be flat", Zhu Jianshen gradually became happy.

"Your Majesty Emperor Xie."

"Why is Ambassador Li Chao so late, but something is delayed?"

The envoy headed by the envoy bowed his head and said: "Back to His Majesty the Emperor, the ministers left the Huitong Hall this morning, and should have gone straight to the palace, but they received a secret report, saying that the eldest princess of our dynasty, Shunshu, is missing in Daming."

"Oh?" Zhu Jianshen was slightly surprised, "Really?"

"Yes."

When Empress Wang heard the tone of the envoy, she was already full of suspicions, "What are you princesses of the Li Dynasty not staying in Seoul, what are you doing in Daming?" ”

"Don't hide it from Her Royal Highness the Queen, the princess escaped from marriage, and entered the Ming Dynasty with a slave from Shandong, and when she went to Taiyuan, Shanxi, she was robbed by a gang of horse thieves, and there is no trace of it so far.

"It's... Since your princess disappeared in Daming, then I should also look for you", Zhu Jianshen raised his eyes sideways, "Huai'en, for me, I will make a decree, and order Shanxi Buzheng and Taiyuan Mansion to make every effort to search and rescue Princess Shunshu, in addition, post the emperor's list and reward those who have made meritorious contributions." ”

"Yes."

"In this way, the ministers will thank His Majesty the Emperor for his grace on behalf of the king."

"I heard that Lady Zhang asked Yu Daochang to settle the hexagram yesterday", Nan Xu seemed to have no intention of ridiculing, but she was deliberately tempting, when she found her last night, she was clearly heartbroken and almost collapsed.

Zhang Junfang seemed to be smiling, "He was looking for me", after all, Aunt Nanxu is the queen mother.

Nan Su had already guessed what Zhang Junfang was thinking, so he stopped talking, but he didn't know that Zhang Junfang suddenly stopped, and a sad smile appeared on the corner of his lips, "Auntie doesn't want to know, what did I ask for?"

Seeing her like this, Nan Xu didn't say much, so she had to follow her, "What is it?"

"Marriage."

Nan Su didn't know how to answer, and suddenly saw the queen mother and the queen moving here, and hurriedly took Zhang Junyu over to meet her.

Queen Wang was talking happily, this time she was interrupted by Nan Su, naturally displeased, but the Queen Mother was beside her, and it was not easy to attack, so she glanced at the dead branches and leaves around her eyes, "Xi'er, tell the Si Yuan Bureau, these remnants of the palace garden should be repaired." ”

"Yes."

Empress Dowager Zhou knew that the remnants of the flowers in her mouth were defeated, and she secretly walked the willows, and there was a slight trace of anger in her heart, no matter how bad Nanxu was, she was also a person from her Renshou Palace, and the queen's words were clearly provoking her.

But looking back, I saw that Nan Su was still calm, so he didn't bother with the queen.

As soon as she saw Zhang Junfang here, Empress Dowager Zhou was full of joy and amiability, and took her hand, "Come on, good boy, go with the mourning family." ”

Zhang Junyu smiled, took advantage of the situation to hold the right arm of the Empress Dowager Zhou, and slowed down to relax with her.

"Queen, just said where it was, go on."

Empress Wang also walked the arm of the Empress Dowager Zhou, and said very gently: "The Li Dynasty mission came a long time late today, and it was delayed by the excuse that it received a secret report when it left the Huitong Pavilion in the morning."

"Secrets? What could be more important than going to Hajj?"

"I heard that it was the eldest princess of their Li Dynasty, Shun Shu, who was lost in our Ming Dynasty."

"Their princess of the Li Dynasty is not staying in the Li Dynasty, what are they doing here, a girl's family, it's ridiculous."

Queen Wang sneered, "No, the concubine also said so at the time, the envoy said that their princess ran to Daming in order to escape marriage, and entered the customs from Shandong with the accompanying people, and wanted to have a good time, but who knew that when he arrived in Taiyuan, he was tied up by horse thieves, and he has not yet been found." ”

Zhang Junyu heard a trace of panic in his heart, he entered the customs from Shandong and was kidnapped by horse thieves in Taiyuan, it sounds so familiar, didn't Zuo Yu also enter the customs from Shandong and was robbed when he arrived in Taiyuan!

Suddenly in my mind, the scene when I practiced walking for the first time, Zuo Yu was so familiar with the palace rules and etiquette, it turned out that it was not a coincidence, she was the princess of the Li Dynasty!

Sure enough, Zuo Yu's background is not small.

The envoy of the Li Dynasty has been found in the palace, and thinking about it like this, Zuo Yu will leave the palace and return to the Li Dynasty in a few days!

Zhang Junfang thought about it and suddenly stopped, pretending to be unwell, and the Empress Dowager Zhou also stopped, staring at Zhang Junfang's eyes full of concern, "What's wrong?"

"Suddenly dizzy, I don't know what's wrong", Zhang Junyu's voice was extremely weak, but he withdrew his hand, walked to the Empress Dowager Zhou and bowed down and said: "The people's daughter is rude, I hope the Empress Dowager will punish her."

"Eh", Empress Dowager Zhou stepped forward to help her up, "Since you are unwell, go back to rest and rest, the mourning family is accompanied by the queen." ”

Zhang Junyu raised his eyes and saluted the queen and queen, but when he saw her and her, he seemed to be very disgusted, so he knew the blessing of interest, "The people's daughter retired." ”

Zhang Junfang hurriedly retreated, just to see Zuo Yu, but when he came back, he saw a lifeless empty house.

Zuo Yu's bed has been cleaned up, except for a cup of stewed pears with rock sugar in front of the dresser, and a piece of paper without creases pressed under the teacup, on which a few Chinese characters are written crookedly.

Sister, I'm leaving, I'm sorry I lied to you for so long, but my sister is very smart and guessed my identity, rock sugar Sydney, my sister's favorite food. Suzy.
