Chapter 163: The Sun and the Moon

"You want me to go to your house and get it? It's good if you bring it to me? You have to distribute my money, this is a ceremony, and the prince can't be too casual. Li Wei is righteous, and the word ritual is valued by himself, see how dare he scribble.

In this way, Guan Qianyi's original intention to say 'the entire palace is yours' was completely interrupted.

"This king has something to tell you about business."

"I don't want to listen to politics right now." Li Wei originally hoped that the two would not talk about anything else in their private time, so naturally they did not want to talk about political affairs. Every time the two of them spend time together, they don't even have a decent date, she often feels aggrieved, and now he wants to talk about political affairs at this time, she feels uncomfortable.

"It's important." He repeated.

"Don't." Li Wei simply got up and walked to her bedroom, "If you want to talk about political affairs, you can go back, we have time to talk about political affairs tomorrow." With that, he turned over and got on the big bed, covered the quilt to sleep, and put his hands on his ears.

Guan Qianyi smiled secretly, looked at her annoyed back, got up, and asked softly, "Overtime pay, how much do you want to add?" ”

Li Wei immediately sat up, her eyes shining, "Five hundred taels." ”

"Five hundred taels is more than your monthly income."

"Isn't it possible?" Li Weinu raised an eyebrow and looked at him.

"Okay." Guan Qianyi paused, "Then does Your Majesty need to listen to political affairs?" ”

"Listen, you can say it." She loved listening to him.

"This is the secret letter that Mrs. Wei handed over to me, you can take a closer look." Guan Qianyi handed her a roll of paper.

Li Wei restrained her smile at this time, it seems that the situation is not simple. She opened it and looked at it carefully, her eyebrows raised slightly, and she let it go, "Mrs. Wei is a good father, but I don't know if his son is a good son." ”

Guan Qianyi glared at her, "Your Majesty, please look at the point." ”

"Hee-hee, I'm just a little emotional. But. He actually wrote to you directly instead of me, indicating that he knew that you were the one in charge of the Beichen Kingdom, and that he could see the relationship between you and me, and that I needed to use this tribute to gain prestige. That's why he dared to propose a thorough investigation of the Jianghu strangulation case back then. I felt that I could agree to him, after all, he was not asking too much. However, I will have to see what leverage he has against the Xiyu Kingdom to win. ”

Wei Taifu is an old fox, and when Li Wei summoned him, he brought the sorted out government Shangluo over. Discuss the details of the tribute with her, and then add your own capital to it.

"Please forgive your majesty for your rudeness and concealment."

"It's too serious, as a father, what you did was not wrong. If I were in your position, I am afraid I would have made the same choice as you. It's just that it is difficult to investigate this case, and Taifu will also need to assist at that time. And the people who Taifu promised to help Beichen hope to have real materials, after all, this is related to the honor of Beichen. ”

"Please rest assured, Wechen has been preparing for this matter for many years. When the emperor was alive, Weichen did not dare to bring it up, just because the emperor was too angry and disdained to use stratagem to win. Weichen listened to His Majesty's strategy, and then he felt that the time had come, and Beichen would definitely give Xiyu a big gift. ”

"Time is running out, and there will be Mrs. Lao as soon as you can."

"His majesty is serious, and Weichen will spare no effort to be loyal to His Majesty and Beichen."

In the few days left, Li Wei accompanied Beichen Lu to learn the way of sophistry with the national teacher, and also hoped that Beichen Lu could serve as the representative of the Beichen royal family; At the same time, the state letter was sent to the children of various clans. Including Fleur from the Princess's Mansion, they were all invited.

On the day of the real arrival, the envoys of the Xiyu Kingdom lined up and entered, causing a sensation in the imperial city. There were more than 100 people at the hour. Coupled with the Beichen escorts, the mighty procession entered the official road, and the people rushed to see the excitement, and followed them to Xicheng, and at sunset, the mission arrived at the palace.

Li Wei's originally relaxed mood was inexplicably excited and nervous. In order to control the relationship between themselves and Beichen Luo, the two of them have already learned an extra course of meditation and practice mantras whenever they have time. In this way, when Li Wei was occasionally excited, she still found a faint tightness in her chest. When she saw that Beichen Luo was still steady, she breathed a sigh of relief.

The two sisters and brothers also sympathized with each other, and they couldn't be too excited, if they didn't know that Beichen Luo's centrifugal Gu was under his master Li Yuetian, she still had some doubts about whether her poison was also from the same person.

The night before, there was news that Princess Lian, the first beauty in the West Country, was harassed by the people, and it was suspected that she was the lotus beauty who appeared in Kyoto a while ago. It's a pity that the carriage lined up by the mission was tightly wrapped, and the true face of the beauty was never seen.

Inside and outside the Imperial City of Beichen Kyoto, the number of guards has increased several times and they are closely patrolled.

The next day, when the envoy came to the palace for an audience, the number of people was only a dozen.

In the main hall of the palace, at the end of the stone steps covered with a dark red carpet, King Zong Cheng and Lianmei were at the front of the line, followed by an old man with white hair and drooping hair, three middle-aged people, and several strangely dressed people of different races.

After Duo Neng led the delegation to the salute, they were the first to give a big gift.

Two big men came up from among the messengers, presented the scroll, and after getting the permission of grace, they slowly opened it, and what came into view was a ten-meter field landscape scroll, and the landscape was precisely the most famous wolf peak and Guanri Waterfall in Beichen.

Li Wei was seated, watching King Zongcheng come forward, obviously this game was arranged for him to come out to take the lead, Li Wei glanced at him, King Zongcheng received her warning gaze, only to look up, and saw Qi Mingfei standing next to her, wearing a decent palace navy blue official robe, that look more handsome than before. King Zong Cheng was stunned for half a second, then avoided Qi Mingfei's sight, lowered his head uncomfortably, but secretly gritted his teeth in his heart, he never thought that this majesty would actually put Qi Mingfei by her side, isn't this to restrain this king all the time?

King Zong Cheng thought in his heart that today's battle would not be so easy to fool around. Pity him as a prince, it is not easy to be sandwiched between the two sides, I wanted to release the water a little with selfish intentions, and let the two countries have a draw, but now it seems to be a luxury. However, when he came to this step, he could only take a few steps forward, and when he saw the seventeenth prince of Beichen, Beichen Luo, also stood up, he couldn't help but be surprised for a moment.

"The brushwork and painting style of this Wolf Peak and Guanri Waterfall are really good, and there are thousands of miles of labor sent to my Beichen Imperial Capital." Beichen Luo is served by a golden and noble dragon, and the golden and brilliant dragon body has the most noble silk embroidery outline of Beichen Kingdom, and he is not tall enough to reach the jade crown, but he is still noble and dazzling.

"The seventeenth prince has such a good eye." I didn't expect it to be the king of Zongcheng who spoke out. It's the lotus beauty behind her.

I saw her move lightly, her figure was as soft as a willow, and her face was half-covered with a light veil, but she revealed a pair of charming eyes full of charm. At this moment, with a pure and agile look, he looked at the clothes on Beichen Luo's body, "This princess has been involved in the etiquette and customs of Beichen Kingdom, and once thought that dragon robes could only be worn by emperors, but I never thought that today I saw the seventeenth prince who was full of energy and wore a dragon tattooed noble costume to look even more noble and extraordinary. I think it's because the main palace has too little knowledge. It's abrupt. ”

She spoke softly, as if she was ignorant, as if she was complaining about her lack of knowledge, but she vaguely pointed out that the distribution of status and status in the etiquette of Beichen Kingdom was not obvious, and the identity of the dragon robe of the king of a country did not seem to be noble and unique enough.

Beichen Luo heard that she wanted to maliciously sow discord, and snorted coldly in her heart, but she still smiled peacefully on the surface, "Princess Lian has indeed seen too little. My Beichen royal family is a descendant of the dragon clan, and the status is self-evident, and only the dragons on His Majesty's body have nine. For the clans of the side branches such as us, it is the most honorable to be able to wear a single dragon pattern dress. ”

Lian Meiren never thought that a teenage doll would be able to refute her question so calmly, and originally wanted to give them a shock salute before the big ceremony, but now it seems that this seventeen princes are not an easy person to deal with.

What's damn is that he directly scolded her for being uneducated, what an unlovely child! She glanced at the highest imperial maiden, covered her face with a beaded curtain, the legend is smart and elegant, from entering the palace to the present, she can only hear her say the word flat. Thinking about it, her remarks didn't attract much attention from her.

The white-haired old man coughed, and Lian Meiren nodded in apology, "It's Lian'er who is not sensible." He covered his face with a light gauze handkerchief, as if he had suffered a lot of damage.

"The Seventeenth Prince is younger than you. But the words are straightforward, so why should you be sad. The old man seemed to be playing a round for her, and he was also faintly blaming Beichen for being too young and not knowing how to talk about the scene.

Beichen Luo smiled, "What the elder said is that this hall has always been not good at speaking. The royal sister has also been blamed many times. It's a pity that the main hall has never had an elder like the elder by his side, always reminding the main hall to be cautious in words and deeds, and the main hall is quite envious. ”

This is even more level, Beichen Luo was accused by the old man of being a young child who is not sensible, but Lian Meiren is not a child anymore, and if she does something wrong and says the wrong thing, she is still rounded by the elders, isn't it even more ignorant?

When the white-haired old man heard this, he also knew that he was not an opponent, so he had to laugh and take it.

Lian Meiren secretly gritted her teeth, but it was only because she couldn't come out too much at this time, with the presence of the elderly, she couldn't argue and quarrel with people as unscrupulously as she did on the street. In this way, it depends on how King Zongcheng cleans them up, so she pins her hope on King Zongcheng again.

King Zongcheng secretly cleared his voice, "In this way, please enjoy this mountain and river water color map." ”

Li Wei nodded, just raised her hand, and didn't say a word.

Qi Mingfei secretly laughed beside him, but said, "Your Majesty's throat is uncomfortable today, and the king doesn't need to be polite, just say it." ”

The old man and Lian Meiren couldn't help but feel deep discrimination when they saw that King Zongcheng was answering by a small officer, but because they had suffered losses in the first two conversations, they could only endure it now, and they hoped more and more that King Zongcheng could take care of this dry person.

"So the king continued." King Cheng had a ghost in his heart, when Qi Mingfei talked to him, he didn't even look like he rejected people on weekdays, and kept throwing his eyebrows at him, and he felt that he couldn't adjust his breathing in an instant.

Damn Qi Mingfei, he's here today to stir up his game.

Beichen's hundred officials had seen Qi Mingfei, and they had also been informed by His Majesty the day before that Qi Mingfei had been in contact with Xiyu State, so he invited him back to help, so it seems that this former Lord Qi has a good relationship with His Majesty.

"As you can see, this picture is the most famous landscape of your country's Wolf Peak and Guanri Waterfall. At sunset, the sunset is shining high, and the red glow spreads over the mountains and rivers, while at the same time, the crescent moon rises from the other side of the mountain and hangs on the waterfall. At this time, the mountains and rivers add color, and the sun and the moon are together. ”

This kind of magical scenery is the most respected by the world in Beichen Kingdom.

The Beichen officials in the main hall heard this, and they all looked arrogant, and only Beichen had such a magical scenery from the sky, and those in other countries such as the West could only sigh and hug their thighs.

Qi Taishi spoke out on behalf of the hundred officials, "I Beichen takes Wolf Mountain and Guansun Waterfall as holy places, where the sun and moon are glorious, its beauty is indescribable, and it is not that this picture of mountains and rivers can be vividly displayed. ”

"That's right, this mountain and river is just a corner of the holy land."

"The Holy Land has different colors in all four seasons."

"Even at night and in the morning light, the scenery of the Holy Land is beautiful and varied."

"What Master Qi and everyone said is very true." King Zong Cheng agreed, "This mountain and river is the most sacred place in your country, how can we make the most of its charm if we have just a few words." It's just that about this scenery, I have a doubt, and now I just take this opportunity to ask your country for advice. ”

Beichen Lu answered in a timely manner, "I dare not ask for advice, even if the king has something to say, the mystery of my Beichen scenery is difficult for the world to understand, the landscape is rare and rare, and it is common for people to have questions." ”

was choked again, and King Zongcheng couldn't help but realize why this seventeenth prince was so difficult.

This question is not about the strangeness of the landscape, but only about the sun and the moon. I respect the gods, and all the small households worship the gods; However, Beichen respects the sun and the dragon as the soar. Please look at this painting, between this landscape, the sun and the moon are together, competing with each other, and I don't know whether the sunshine is more beautiful, the sunset is more beautiful, or the moonlight is more wonderful, and the waterfall is more charming? ”

This question is very easy to answer, the sun and the moon are together, and you can't lose any of them, and the sun and the moon appear together to create this beautiful scenery. But the tricky problem of the king lies in the premise that he said: Beichen respects the sun.

The hundred officials fell silent for a moment. If they say that the sun is honored, then the saying that the sun and the moon are present in the scenery of the holy land is a gap; If you say that the sun and the moon are noble, it is also a slap in the face; If you say that you respect the moon, you will slap yourself in the face.

The old man and the lotus beauty looked proud: this question is a plan that they have decided on after studying it for a long time, and they will definitely be able to take down the majesty of Beichen Kingdom.

Beichen Luo didn't expect the words to refute for a while, the young man glanced at his imperial sister a little anxiously, Li Wei gave him a reassuring look, Qi Mingfei behind her raised his eyebrows, and looked at King Zongcheng, whose scalp was numb...... (To be continued.) )
