Although Wang Jue joked in his heart, he also knew that such an undignified thing was unlikely to happen. The imperial court's attitude towards the coming of Burma this time was positive and passive, and it was willing to reconcile with other countries, but it was unwilling to rashly get involved in the internal affairs of other countries.

To put it bluntly, let them strife first, and wait for the fisherman to profit in the end.

Since it depends on their infighting, you must always give them similar bargaining chips, otherwise how can they fight each other.

Thinking of this, Wang Jue smiled slightly, took out a beautiful stiff invitation and handed it to the deputy envoy, and took the deputy envoy's hand and said kindly: "Your Majesty heard that your country likes flowers, and the special official invites the prime minister, the deputy envoy and a group of envoys to enjoy the flowers in the golden autumn of September and the suburbs of Beijing. ”

He didn't care about the envoy's ugly face, and he didn't care that the deputy envoy didn't understand it at all, anyway, when the words came, how to operate let these Burmese people worry about their own brains.

After coming out of Huaiyuanyi, Wang Jue was ordered to enter the palace to resume his life, and after saying goodbye to Cheng Xiaoxiao, he went straight to a side hall in the palace to face the saint.

The emperor sat on the dragon chair in the side hall, his mind was tired, and he didn't have any fluctuations in his expression when he watched Wang Jue enter the hall.

As soon as Wang Juefu entered the palace, he found that the hall was filled with a strong medicinal gas, which could only be smelled when the seasons changed every year. After he saluted, he didn't mention the matter of medicine, but only persuaded politely: "Recently, government affairs have been busy, and the embassy is visiting, please take care of the dragon's body." ”

The emperor gestured skillfully to rub the acupuncture points at the tiger's mouth, like an old Chinese medicine doctor sitting in a hall to teach people to maintain, and said weakly: "Alas, in the past few days, it has been Lu Servant for a while, Lin Qing for a while, and Dongfang Qing for a while...... Every time I catch my breath, someone comes. I was already too busy, but now I have the mission again. Alas, Wang Aiqing, how is the errand? ”

Although His Majesty the Emperor was full of complaints, as if he was close to Wang Jue to the point of gossiping, Wang Jue would not think that he was the emperor's "own person".

At least not enough for now.

After explaining the situation of the Burmese mission to the emperor, Wang Jue confessed: "The minister was at fault in what he did, and the minister made his own decisions, and left the post to the deputy envoy of the mission without waiting for the prime minister to return." Because he wanted to restore the emperor's order, he couldn't stay in Huaiyuan for a long time, so he asked the emperor to punish him. ”

The emperor raised his hand slightly: "That's it, it's just a trivial matter," and said, "Before the chrysanthemum viewing meeting, when an agreement was reached with the Burmese envoys, Wang Aiqing, what is the plan for the candidates for the left and right deputy envoys of the mission?" ”

Wang Jue was stunned for a moment, and he had already realized that since His Majesty the Emperor asked him, he should not have a chance to participate in this matter.

The emperor only asked about the deputy envoy because it was reasonable and reasonable, and the envoy should be Cheng Xiaoxiao, the secretary of Honglu Temple.

As for the candidates for the deputy envoys, they have always been very mixed, in addition to the officials of Honglu Temple, it is also possible to be drawn from other departments of the imperial court, or according to different intentions, let different people decorate the façade.

In the face of Myanmar's intention to establish diplomatic relations with the Great Cadres this time, what they are afraid of is, after all, the strength and strength of the Great Cadres.

"The ministers are frightened, there are many young and promising young talents among the officials of Honglu Temple, for example, Yu Shaoqing of Honglu Temple, who once entertained the envoys of the Japanese State a few years ago, negotiated with the other party about the ownership of the island, and made meritorious contributions to guarding the territory of our great cadres." After Wang Jue thought about it, he said a decent answer.

"Yu Juan is indeed sharp-tongued, and he is a good negotiator," the emperor said after praising him, "In addition to the Zhongqing family in Honglu Temple, is there any other candidate?" ”

Now that he had asked so clearly, he couldn't say anything if he didn't answer positively, Wang Jue bowed his head and said: "The envoys who greeted the Marquis of Taiping and Lord Zhang together before, the deputy envoy is appointed by any of these two, and he carefully weighed his words, "In addition, the iron cavalry of the Lord of the East once swept the southern border, which is quite a deterrent to the Burmese country, and Lord Lin is also used to state negotiations, and the minister thinks that he also deserves it." ”

In a few words, he mentioned everyone related to foreign affairs. To say it is to say it is to not say it.

The emperor closed his eyes and was silent, and said after a while: "Anhou has had many quarrels with the chief envoy of the Burmese mission, and appointed him as the deputy envoy, I am afraid that during the negotiation process, there will be a conflict when talking," as if realizing something, the emperor quietly added, "What's more, although Anhou has outstanding military achievements, he is not suitable for this kind of bargaining diplomatic affairs." ”

As soon as these words came out, the Taiping Marquis An Lu was out.

"As for Zhang Cong......"

At first glance, when the emperor mentioned this person, his tone seemed to be three points cold, but if he thought about it carefully, he would feel that it was an illusion, after all, if the emperor's likes and dislikes were so easy to understand, there would be no unpredictable four words.

"However, in a small border country, it is too much to discuss the matter of tribute, and it is too much to dispatch a second-grade master, not to mention that the main envoy is the Honglu Siqing of the fourth grade."

This conclusion not only excludes Zhang Cong, but also Dongfang Yun, don't forget, Dongfang Yun is now also the secretary of the military department, and he is also one of the leaders of the six departments.

"Lin Aiqing is a master of negotiation, I still remember, when I was the crown prince, the Dian State was returned to the Great Qian, how to divide the territory, how to manage, how to set up the Liuguan to weaken the Tusi, Lin Qing and the envoy sent by the Dian State fought for several days, it was really wonderful." The Emperor fell into the memory, his face soft, and his tone soft.

"The minister also remembers." Wang Jue echoed beside him.

"You?" The Emperor opened his eyes amusedly, "How old were you twenty years ago?" You haven't taken the Jinshi exam yet, have you? ”

Wang Jue smiled and said silently, and said intentionally or unintentionally after a while: "I heard that the Prime Minister of Myanmar and the Oriental Xielulang are very deed, and it is not without such a precedent for the Taichang Temple Xielulang to join the ceremonial negotiations. ”

The emperor pondered slightly, was noncommittal, and asked after a while: "That's it, this matter will be discussed later, how are the preparations for the chrysanthemum appreciation meeting?" ”

said that the issue of the mission was well said, but it was actually transferred to the chrysanthemum appreciation meeting again, the emperor was natural, and Wang Jue was not surprised, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty xià rest assured, a qiēshun lì." ”

"On the royal sister's side, you're not suspicious, are you?" The Emperor asked softly. Although his voice was soft, the light in his eyes flashed.

"Your Majesty, rest assured, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess didn't think much about it." Wang Jue's smile flashed away, and he held his breath for a moment.

"Speaking of the imperial sister, I think of one thing," the emperor rubbed the acupuncture points on his hands, dipped his fingers in the sobering ointment on the table, and then moved to the sides of the temples and kneaded them, "Today, the queen mother also asked me how the imperial sister's marriage and the Ministry of Rites are preparing for it." Now that you have entered the palace to resume your life, wait until you go to the queen mother's palace and report to your face. ”

"Obey."

After Wang Jue retreated, the emperor sat in the side hall for a while, and then called an attendant and said in a low voice: "Spread my message, Xuan Taichang Temple Qing Yunrui entered the palace." ”
