In November of the 11th year of Chiwu, Zuo Yi'an of Honglu Temple returned to the capital with the last group of cultural exchange envoys and members of the mission.

Officials at all levels of Honglu Temple collectively went out of the city to greet them, and the people of the capital also welcomed them.

At the same time, An brought back not only these valuable classics, diplomatic experience and achievements, but also Princess Wuqi and the first beauty in the northern country, Yadan Lier.

An Sui was sitting in the last station outside the capital to rest, but the door of the room suddenly rang, and An Sui opened the door and saw a familiar face, "Xinzhi? ”

Xinzhi gave a thousand salutes leisurely, still looking playful, "Slave greetings to the adult!" Blessed adults! ”

That's a word of invitation that is only used in the face of the harem master, An Sui smiled lightly, "It's not serious again, is it the same to serve the emperor around?" ”

Xinzhi grinned, "Adults don't know what kind of person a slave is, that is, dare to say a few words in front of adults." Xinzhi took out a letter from his sleeve, "Today is to announce the decree, but before the decree, the emperor ordered the servants to hand this over to the adults, and tomorrow the adults will enter Beijing, and the emperor specially ordered that the adults will be received during the court meeting, and the servants specially sent the adults' official uniforms." Today is just Lord Xuan and Princess Wuqi entering Beijing, and the real rewards are announced at tomorrow's court meeting. ”

An Sui took the letter, and when Xinzhi finished speaking, he withdrew.

The letterhead was made of red leaf paper, and Ann opened it.

"The cold moon quietly appeared in the pines, and it was the remnants of snow. Patience is far away tonight, and there is nowhere to go from the heart to miss the night, so you can send red beans.

You don't see, Shanglin City is in the mist, and the color is quiet. It is a sigh that in previous years, he looked alone, and the slope was alone Linghua comb, and he also asked for a snowman. ”

An Sui lowered his head and smiled, "It's obviously an invitation to enjoy the flowers, but you make this bleak gesture." ”

But with such a distraction, the tension in her heart disappeared like this, and An Sui thought, he shouldn't have come to joke with him on purpose!

Reaching out and touching the official uniform of Honglu Temple Zuoyi, she was appointed by Ji Xuanyuan from the harem when she sat in the position of Honglu Temple Zuoyi, speaking of which, except for an official order, in fact, there is really nothing. I didn't have time to do the official uniform, so when I first entered the foreign affairs mission, I was also criticized by many people, but in the past three years, her insight, as well as the ability and foresight she showed in foreign affairs, have gradually blocked the mouths of those who disobey her. In fact, she is in charge and arranges most of the things in the mission, and even Yan Zhe also transferred most of the power to An Sui after seeing her negotiations with the Guizi monarch, not only agreeing with An Sui's status as Zuo Yi, but also letting her sit in the second position of the mission.

The Shaoqing of Honglu Temple brought some envoys back to Beijing in the tenth year of Chiwu, and directly appointed An Sui as the head of the mission that continued to stay, and let her be fully responsible for everything.

And An Sui did not disappoint him, in more than a year, he opened some pilot commercial ports on the border, and also made a lot of results, and Yan Zhe also sighed again and again. even wrote a letter asking Ji Xuanyuan to appoint An Sui as the Shaoqing of Zhengsipin Honglu Temple. The highest official position of Honglu Temple is from the Sanpin Honglu Temple, set up one, but there are three Shaoqing of Honglu Temple, three each of Honglu Temple Zuoyi and Youyi, but because the imperial court did not attach importance to Honglu Temple, officials at all levels are still dissatisfied. The performance of An Sui over the years is also obvious to all, this mission not only brought back a large number of northern classics, paintings, Buddhist scriptures, Taoist scriptures, but also consolidated the border stability of Great Chu, and laid a preliminary foundation for the expansion of the territory of Great Chu.

During the years that An Sui was on the border, he also brought some officials from the household department and the painting workshop to personally survey the geography of the northern country, corrected many biases in the "Geographical Chronicle", and also drew correct geographical maps, and even sneaked into the territory of Loulan several times and drew a lot of maps of the hinterland of Loulan, which was a great help for the future war against Loulan.

Although these achievements can only be partially announced, they are enough to be knighted with the officials.

But that's not what Ann Sui wants.

"Xuan, Honglu Temple Zuo Yi'an will come with you!"

The high-pitched voice swept through the entire hall and spread to the outside of the hall, and An Sui looked up at the sky, the sky was clear, and then looked at the ground, which was covered with thick snow. And although the snow was swept away on the way to the court, she still left her own step-by-step footprints in the snow, steady and difficult.

She thought that she would never forget this moment, the man she had looked up to all her life was sitting on a high throne, and she was wearing a fuchsia official uniform, and she approached him step by step.

In the court, there are not no female officials, but she knows that she will be the most special one, because she is the biological daughter of King Xiang, and because she fell in love with the emperor sitting in front of her, and because she wants to join hands with him to create the next generation of prosperity.

And at this moment she also understood. The time in the harem will be the most nostalgic years of her life, and those are just the prelude to the music. And the real journey will begin from this moment, and she will stand in front of him and walk through this era with him.

"For the system said: both heard turtles, Wuqi, and rest of the genus are all the northern powers, many strange things culture, but also to the border as a danger and self-respect, through the countries and the mandate of heaven, and the heavy responsibility to care for the countries, because of the order to peep into Chu, is to know the vast, set up border defense and set up a commercial port, rich country border and glory in the north, its merit is not limited, for the Honglu Temple Zuo Yi'an with the merit! After Jiazan Qi was the king of Xiang, the daughter of the Liemen, she was specially enshrined as the post of Zoe from the Sipin Honglu Temple, and was given the mansion, the fish jade pendant and the official order from the Sipin. In addition, he admired the demeanor of King Xiang in the past, and did his best for the position of Shaoqing, and repeatedly went into danger to get all things at the border. Added the nickname 'Xiangqi'. ”

There is virtue in the land, and there is labor in the armor. Perseverance is said to be Qi, and the capital and auxiliary are said to be Qi.

This is probably the best portrayal of An Yuwen's life, he was widely excluded in the first emperor's dynasty, and when it came to Ji Xuanyuan's dynasty, his reputation was finally rehabilitated.

Isn't this exactly what An Sui longs for, but at the moment he got it, An Sui couldn't help but have a sour nose, his father had been gone for so many years, and finally got the glory he deserved today. It's just that he can't see it himself, he once sighed, hating An Sui for not being a man, but An Sui wanted to say that in fact, he was just a daughter, and he could earn the glory he deserved for his father.

Ann bowed his head and thanked him.

"Congratulations to Lord Ann!"

"Yes, yes, Lord An is really a woman, not inferior to men, I admire it!"

As soon as the court arrived, there were one after another congratulatory voices. An Sui just smiled and responded, not accommodating or polite. Now that she has been suddenly sealed, she can't tell how much sincerity there is in the congratulations of the people in the court.

"Sui'er, I've finally come out."

An Sui turned around, "Uncle Qian! ”

An Sui saw Qian Sizhong, as if he had seen his family, and then recalled the events over the years, his eyes couldn't help but redden, "Thank you, uncle!" ”

Qian Sizhong patted her shoulder, "They are all serious officials, joy and anger are invisible, it should be your demeanor." ”

An Sui nodded, "That's what Uncle said. ”

"Siniang often thinks about you, and when she goes out, she is also thanks to your care for the fourth son."

The four sons mentioned by Qian Sizhong are worthy of Cai Xiang, Siniang's husband, who was also a member of the embassy at the beginning.

"Actually, it's not much care! It's also a shame for Lord Cai to mention me more. ”

"Very good, not arrogant or discouraged." Qian Sizhong also praised An Sui very much, "If you have time, you will come to the house for a light meal." ”

"Thank you, uncle!"

"I'm glad you have today. In the past, it was not good to have a lot of contacts in the palace, but now it is much more convenient to be an official in the foreign court. Besides, you have a new mansion too. ”

An Sui nodded.

Qian Sizhong had already gotten into the carriage and said goodbye to An Sui, An Sui also got into the carriage, she was really a little sleepy, and she fell asleep quickly after getting into the carriage, and only woke up when the groom called her.

"Where is this?" Ann got out of the car with the groom's men, and the building in front of him was simple but luxurious, but it obviously did not look like a mansion.

The groom knelt down and said, "My lord, this is your new mansion, the plaque of Anfu is still in the palace, and it has not yet been delivered. ”

With that, he drove away.

An Sui walked into the mansion suspiciously, there were already a few waiting maids and a few servants standing in the door, and when they saw An Sui walking in, they all knelt down in front of An Sui, and said, "The slaves/slaves have seen the girl!" ”

An Sui hurriedly said, "You all get up, don't kneel at the door to reply, if it's cold today, the ground is also cold, let's all go into the house!" ”

The middle-aged man standing at the front bowed down and said, "The slave is Fu You, who was sent by the emperor to be the housekeeper for the girl, is the girl going to the main hall?" The slave showed the girl the way. Girl, please. ”

The name of the main hall is Lin Yuntang, and the name is also elegant.

An Sui was introduced to the upper seat, Fu You led a group of subordinates to kneel down again, An Sui said helplessly, "You all get up and talk back." ”

"The girl is kind-hearted, but this is also a rule, just entered the house, it is good to set up rules, lest the people below see that the girl has a good temperament and disrespect the girl." Fu You led the people to kneel in a room, and they all kowtowed to An Sui three times, and then they all got up and stood up.

Fu You pointed to the middle-aged woman beside him and said, "This is the slave's cheapness, called Hua Niang, and she is also the aunt in this house, and she is responsible for serving the girl's daily life in the future." The two girls behind her, the girl must know, are the embroidered inkstone and embroidered Min who served the girl in the Weiyang Palace in the past. The two girls in the back are named Qionghua and Luyun, and they are also serving the girl closely. Fu You introduced her one by one, although she was the only one in this Anfu, there were more than 20 people waiting for her.

An Sui was first amazed by Fu You's ability, and the more than 20 people up and down were all dispatched by him in an orderly manner, which showed that he was also an extremely reliable person.

After An Sui recognized the people, he let them all go down, and Hua Niang led her to the dormitory, and let her go down.
