He glanced back at the castle-like grange, and in the twilight the towering gatehouse and the whistles at the four corners of the wall seemed to be covered with a veil of mystery.

Is this an ordinary grange?

This should be the place where Xiao Xian's five thousand personal soldiers are, so it seems that it is far more than five thousand.

On the outskirts of Beijing, there are tens of thousands of elites lurking, and they may one day threaten the royal authority.

Xiao Che's heart was heavy, his father really trusted Xiao Xian, and Xiao Xian was really not afraid of being suspected.

The most important thing is Shen Mingzhu, as soon as he thinks of Shen Mingzhu, Xiao Che feels like a fish in his throat.

Shen Mingzhu has become a thorn in his heart, it hurts when he touches it, he can't pull it out if he wants to, and he doesn't dare to push it forward, so he sticks to it like this.

Unless he gets Shen Mingzhu and Shen Mingzhu falls in love with him, this thorn will be completely eliminated and directly transformed into a sweet seed, which can blossom and bear fruit without taking root and sprouting.

Xiao Run observed his words and said tentatively: "Big brother, that Shen Mingzhu is too much, so it is extremely rude to treat Mrs. Liu and Miss Shen San to us like this." ”

After speaking, he observed Xiao Che's expression, wanting to see if Xiao Che's expression had changed.

Xiao Che had a calm face, nothing unusual, and snorted, "Fortunately, I have already withdrawn from the marriage, otherwise wouldn't I have been completely affected by her?" ”

Although he was worried about Shen Mingzhu, the man's self-esteem and the pride of the prince were not allowed to say it, nor did he allow others to know it.

Especially his own brothers.

Xiao Runyi is not sure whether Xiao Che loves Shen Mingzhu or not, and it is difficult to make a judgment, so he can only try it later.

A few days later, Shen Mingzhu returned to Kyoto with Xiao Xian and Xiao Wen.

After returning to Kyoto, Shen Mingzhu did not go to see the emperor first, but went directly to the Foreign Affairs Pavilion.

Originally, the Foreign Affairs Pavilion was called the Fan Fang, and some of it was called the Barbarian Mansion, but later those foreigners protested, saying that it meant to despise them.

Therefore, it was directly changed to the Foreign Affairs Embassy, also known as the Foreign Embassy, and all foreign envoys and matters could be resolved there anyway.

Originally, the foreign embassy was not very large, but later there were more barbarian clans who came to He, and it became bigger and bigger, because those big ones who often came and went had to give them a special courtyard for the foreign affairs embassy, and they did not share it with others, which also seemed respectful.

For example, it is divided into four points today, the Jin State in the north, the Qin State in the middle, the Yue State in the south, and the Chen State in the west.

It's just that the Chen State was destroyed by the Three Kingdoms almost twenty years ago, and a lot of iron and silver mines in the Chen State were divided, and now the Chen State is just a puppet court jointly controlled by the Three Kingdoms.

Therefore, Jin is the largest, followed by Yue, and Chen's Foreign Affairs Pavilion is no longer independent.

Originally, Shen Mingzhu wanted to go by herself, but Xiao Xian was not at ease and must accompany her.

After all, Yeluen is a cunning enemy, if the Ming Ming of the Knowing Dao is important, who knows if the Dao will have any evil intentions.

So Xiao Xian was almost coming, and Shen Mingzhu couldn't refuse, and felt that Xiao Xian was dignified Yan Wang, and it seemed a bit overkill to come here.

She pursed her lips and smiled, and said in a low voice: "Lord Wang, you don't have to say anything later, just a few words of greeting, everything is with me." ”

Xiao Xian bowed his head slightly and glanced at her, "That's it." ”

Shen Mingzhu couldn't help laughing, "Yes." ”
