133 The Tibetan envoys
Qing'er lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked at the crowd of people coming and going with a calm gaze. "Has the princess noticed that there are many people coming and going in the market, why is our carriage unimpeded all the way?"
"What's this, I'm like this every time I travel, and I don't think there's anything special!"
Princess Rouran looked outside, "Yes, this Chang'an Avenue is indeed bustling and lively, but our carriage can go all the way unimpeded." You don't say I haven't noticed. ”
"Didn't the princess find out? The pedestrians in front of them avoided the carriage when they saw it. Does the princess know why? ”
Princess Rouran smiled innocently, "Of course I know this, because I am a princess." What they fear is my status as a princess, and that must be the case. ”
"But princess, you have been sitting in the carriage, and how can the pedestrians in front of you know who you are and who you are. According to Qing'er, you only got half of the answer right, and there is the other half. ”
"What's the other half? Qing'er, say it quickly, don't go around in circles, I'm in a hurry! ”
Princess Rouran anxiously waited for an answer.
Qing'er deliberately stayed for a moment, wanting to make the princess anxious, "The other half, it's this carriage." This carriage represents the colors of the royal nobility. Presumably, the people in Chang'an City are knowledgeable, as long as they see the color of this carriage, they know that they are either royal families or high-ranking officials, and when they encounter such a kind of person, it is always right to stay away! ”
"Qing'er, you have been talking for a long time, it turns out that I am a dignified princess and I can't compare to this royal carriage, this way is unimpeded, I have to thank it for not succeeding, but when I think about it, it is really this thing. It seems that I, the princess, have been in vain, and have become a foil to a carriage. ”
Princess Rouran sighed deeply on the one hand.
Qing'er glanced sideways at the princess quietly, "What, princess, do you want to grow the carriage ambition and destroy your prestige?" Our princess is the most beautiful princess in the Tang Dynasty, otherwise, why didn't Brother Yan Danqing take a fancy to the carriage, but ......"
Qing'er, you make fun of me, hum!
When did you become his helper?
You are ......."
Princess Rouran didn't finish her words, and suddenly, the carriage stopped, "Coachman, why did the carriage stop?"
”
"Princess, there is a line of pedestrians in front of you, blocking the princess's way!
”
Mafu said.
Princess Rouran's face was annoyed, "What kind of pedestrian, dare to block the way of this princess, it seems that there is really no long-term knowledge on this Chang'an Street."
”
With that, he lifted the curtain and looked out.
"Where did the merchants come from, it's really lawless, don't they know that this is at the foot of the Son of Heaven?
Actually get in the way of the princess's carriage, coachman, you say, let them get out of the way!
”
"Princess, no!
”
Qing'er looked at the pedestrians outside and hurriedly stopped the princess's words, "Has the princess noticed which adult is accompanying these merchants?"
Are there still the costumes of these so-called merchants?
”
"Isn't it just an ordinary businessman?
What else could be so special?
”
Princess Rouran looked at it, "The lord who sat on the horse and accompanied Shang Jia is very familiar, he is ...... He's ......"
"Princess, he is the squire of the military department, Xu You, Lord Xu.
”
Qing'er said quietly, "The princess thinks about what kind of businessman can be received by Lord Xu, a dignified and high-ranking official, and then look at the clothes of these people, it is obvious that they are all Tubo.
If Qing'er guessed correctly, they should have been waiters sent by Tubo to meet His Majesty.
”
"Really?
”
Princess Rouran cast a puzzled look.
Qing'er's eyes were certain, "It shouldn't be wrong!"
When I was in business with my father, I dealt with them and knew them very well!
”
Lord Xu Yu and their group gradually approached.
I saw a middle-aged man riding on a horse side by side with Xu You, dressed in a dark red robe, with two rows of thick silver-white fur hanging on both sides of his shoulders, with a dark complexion, and a calm and wise gaze.
Seeing Princess Rouran, Xu Yu hurriedly stepped off the horse, "Your Royal Highness the princess, Your Royal Highness the princess, the villain was ordered to welcome the mission sent by Tubo Zampu, but he didn't expect to block the princess's luan.
Please wait for the princess, and the villain will let the Tibetan delegation make way for the princess.
”
As he spoke, the envoy's gaze was fixed on Princess Rouran.
Princess Rouran glanced at Qing'er and smiled: "It turns out that it is really the Tibetan mission!"
”
Xu You pointed to the envoy who was riding on a tall horse and staring at Qing'er, "That envoy of Lu Dongzan is the prime minister of Tubo!"
”
As he spoke, Lu Dongzan put his right hand on his chest, bowed his head lightly and smiled lightly and saluted the princess.
Princess Rouran said with a smile; "Where did I think it was a businessman?
”
Xu You said, "If that's the case, the villain will take them on the path!"
But this is our honored guest of the Tang Dynasty, so His Majesty sent a small one to greet him.
”
Princess Rouran bowed generously, "Since they are VIPs from afar, of course let them go first!"
”
Qing'er quietly praised the princess.
I didn't expect the princess to be really generous and decent, and she didn't let her eyebrows!
Xu Yu saluted, "The princess is merciful, but the villain is dull!"
”
"Please go first, the Tibetan mission!
”
Rouran bowed.
After speaking, he motioned to the groom, "Groom, lean the carriage to the side!"
”
Lu Dongzan saluted the princess, and his eyes showed admiration for the princess.
It is worthy of being a state of etiquette, and even the women of the Tang Dynasty are virtuous and benevolent, which is admirable.
The mission passed slowly, and Princess Rouran waited patiently.
Qing'er looked at the princess playfully, smiled and said, "In the past, I liked the princess, and today, I admire the princess!"
”
"Admire what?
”
Princess Rouran looked at Qing'er in surprise.
"I admired the princess's words and deeds just now, but I didn't expect the princess to suddenly be so generous and decent in front of foreign guests, she can be praised by a woman who doesn't let her eyebrows go!
”
Qing'er smiled.
"It's just a normal thing!
”
Princess Rouran said, "You know what?
Since I was five years old, my mother has found me a stern gentleman to teach me these things, but that gentleman is dull and annoying, and I don't like it at all, but I am stubborn and can't resist my mother, and I have to do it every time.
Sometimes, I want to go out and flutter butterflies, and sometimes, I want to go plum blossom climbing.
But whenever I do these things, I am always helplessly pulled back and do these boring etiquette.
I really don't know what's the use of learning this, it's not fun at all.
It's not as fun as me lying by the window and looking at the stars.
When I think about it, I get annoyed.
Sometimes, I often have nightmares about learning etiquette.
”
Qing'er looked at the princess with sad and pitying eyes, "That princess has learned this, has she ever received a foreign guest?"
”
"Haha, tell you, today is the first time I have met a foreign guest.
I didn't expect the broken things I had learned before to suddenly be used.
I was praised by you just now.
What do you think?
Did I do well?
”
Princess Rouran said playfully, with a slow confidence in her eyes.
Qing'er nodded in approval, "Okay!"
The princess did so well!
”
Princess Rouran smiled like a carefree little girl.
It's just that looking at Princess Rouran's Qing'er, there is a faint layer of worry in her heart at this time.
