020 Tributary
A distant trumpet sound came from the city gate, indicating that the envoy of the Chu Xia Kingdom had arrived at the city gate.
The heavy iron wall slowly opened, and with the sound of a compact gong and drum, a team of men and horses slowly passed through the city wall and entered the people's field of vision.
The brunt of the attack was a red-maned horse that ran forward briskly two steps, the horse was fat and strong, and the coat was shiny, even in the eyes of the layman, it was a rare good horse.
A low cry came from the crowd: "Sweat and blood!" β
Sweat and blood BMW is a priceless treasure that can not be found, this is not a treasure that can be seen casually, this person is also a knowledgeable person. But the voice was immediately drowned out by the crowd, and people's eyes were focused on the man on horseback, only to see that he was wearing a foreign costume, a square hat on his head, a pair of delicate earrings in his ears, red lips and white teeth, picturesque eyebrows and eyes, he was really a young man like jade.
Is this really Chu Xia's boy from a cold place?
People were puzzled, but they saw the young man sit down on horseback with a smile and wave his hand to everyone, and his smile bloomed. This man is interesting, although the road is crowded with people, but they are not here to welcome them, although there are also superficial polite applause, but more of them are angry eyes. If it weren't for the fact that these people in front of them had already submitted to the Great Song Dynasty, and the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty was still watching in front of them, everyone was afraid that they would have thrown the eggs and rotten vegetable leaves in their hands to these barbarians.
The Battle of Mobei has only been two years, is it really so easy to forget the hatred of the country and the family? How many of those soldiers who disappeared were fathers or sons of a family, and in any case, they were important people. The people looked at these people with a smile, but they hated to dismantle them and use them to pay tribute to their dead relatives.
There really is a face, what a group of cheeky brutes.
Behind the sweaty BMW was a small cavalry team, all dressed in red suits with cold faces.
The people silently spat on their phlegm in their hearts and continued to watch intently.
After the cavalry slowly drove a carriage, pulled by two horses in front, the carriage was very large and richly decorated. Chu Xiaguo is really not short of money, there is a circle of gems inlaid on the wheels of the carriage, and any one cut off is enough for ordinary people to eat for half a lifetime. Just looking at the pink veil and the faint aroma in the air, I can't help but think about itβI'm afraid it's a woman in this carriage.
It is not uncommon to send a woman to marry.
After the carriage, there was a cart of tribute, among which the gem and jade mine were the most, and the magnanimity was so dazzling that the three carts of gems were delivered, followed by the thousand-year-old ice stones that were sent to three carts, and the Chuxia specialties of the three carts.
Tang Mu was about to close his mouth with a smile in front of him, tsk, this emerald is the size of an egg!
The Ministry of Rites Shangshu reminded him in a timely manner, "Your Majesty, the smile is too exaggerated. β
It was rare that the official department did not give the Ministry of Rites Shangshu a favor, and he smiled from ear to ear, glanced at the Ministry of Rites, and said to Tang Mu: "The emperor is right to laugh, this is all silver and silver."
"The Ministry of Rites hates that iron is not steel, and if you want to count the silver, you will wait until you return to the palace to count it slowly."
This meeting was finally completed under the command of the reliable Ministry of Rites, Tang Mu squinted his eyes with a smile throughout the whole process, greeted everyone with a smile, and still smiled when he heard the compliments, even if there was a little sarcasm between other people's words intentionally or unintentionally, he didn't care at all.
God knows how long he, the emperor, has been poor.
When the first emperor was in power, although it was still a little money, when something happened to Mobei, he listened to the eunuchs' words and allocated a large amount of military salaries to the soldiers and horses in the southern and western regions, just hoping that they could rush to Mobei as soon as possible and block the mouth of Mobei. As a result, the mouth was blocked, but it was not the hands of the Southern Xinjiang and the Western Regions, but Lin Zhao and Chu Xia fought with each other, and the Great Song Dynasty fishermen benefited, of course, the first emperor was no longer there at this time.
And when Tang Mu succeeded to the throne and became a little emperor in a stupid way, he didn't know that there was still this stubble, not to mention that the money in Southern Xinjiang and the Western Regions was not recovered, and the south of the Yangtze River encountered a waterlogging disaster in the spring
Everything costs money, Tang Mu is panicked.
Last month, the Empress Dowager's Palace was newly repaired, and every crack was washed again with silver, and Tang Mu looked at it and felt distressed. But there are also ignorant concubines, seeing the luxurious and chic layout of the Queen Mother's Palace, and also emulation, Tang Mudeng's face was half blackened, and then the concubine was condemned for some reason, and the Queen Mother was capricious for half a year, that is because the emperor is her son, what are you a little concubine willful? There's kind of you spend your own money to go.
Tang Mu not only picked on the concubine, but also didn't treat himself well, the emperor's recipe was opened, even if he just wanted to eat some supper, it must be a full banquet of the Han Dynasty, even Tang Mu himself felt that it was a waste, so he asked the eunuch to go to the imperial dining room to open a small stove for himself, three dishes and one soup a day, and he was satisfied with eating.
You can't say that Tang Mu is a good emperor, but he really can't find a big fault, and there are really few emperors who can be so frugal in history, so he can only be said to be mediocre.
This is good, this is wonderful, Chu Xiaguo has a deep friendship in the snow, and Tang Mu almost sobbed when he saw it.
The young man in front of him, who had red lips and white teeth but a tall head, looked more and more pleasing to his eyes, and he almost stepped forward to give him a hug to express his feelings. Tang Mu smiled from ear to ear, and the young envoy of Chu Xia Kingdom also smiled brightly, and the scene gradually eased a lot because of the smirking of the two.
After the Ministry of Rites Shangshu chattered a lot, Tang Mu clapped his hands happily, let's go, everyone will have a banquet.
But the young man from Chu Xia had something to say, he smiled flawlessly, and looked straight at Tang Mu: "Your Majesty!" Our king said that in order to express our hearts, we want to give Princess Sissi to you. β
Huh? Is there such a straightforward Tang Mu stiffened, feeling that he had been trapped.
Although he had a little guess in his heart when he saw the carriage coming from afar, he didn't want to be guessed by himself.
It's okay if this matter is not raised, he is still sure that he will find a way to solve it in private, but he never expected that this young man, who does not seem to have any scheming at all, will talk about this matter to all the ministers and people in public.
I can't refuse!
Tang Mu gently poked his palm with his fingernails, and a sharp pain hit him, scratching his breath and stagnating for a second.
Then he seemed to think of something, and sighed slightly, yes, there are still a lot of idlers in his harem, this girl came all the way from Linzhao to the Great Song Dynasty, and she brought so much dowry, even if she raised her for two lifetimes, he would not suffer.
The matter was successfully resolved, both parties were very satisfied, and finally walked to the banquet together to take the wind and wash the dust.
Fu Qingran took his hand away from Wakasa's wrist, his eyebrows and eyes finally stretched a little, he pondered for an afternoon, and finally had some eyebrows about Wakasa's cause. Raising his eyes and looking at Wakasa's face, pale as paper, he couldn't help but feel a little distressed, but he didn't dare to be careless, and took the gruel on the side and fed it into her mouth one by one, and then thought about letting her swallow it.
She's no more hungry than a person now.
If he didn't guess wrong, I'm afraid that someone deliberately injected an internal force that could not be fused into Wakasa's body, wanting to suppress her internal force, but not wanting to hurt her. However, the internal force gradually became uncontrollable, and whenever Wakasa forcibly used his internal force, the two internal forces would "kill each other" until one suppressed the other.
However, when these two internal forces communicate with each other, they accidentally damage Wakasa's memory, causing her to become confused as soon as she uses internal forces.
When we met the day before yesterday, I heard Tang Mu say that it should be her who forcibly urged her internal force to save the little boy under the horse's hooves. But as soon as she activated her internal force, she also awakened another internal force in her body, and the fight between the two caused her to lose her memories of the past five years.
But all this is just his conjecture after all, but anyway, since he has come to this conclusion, he now has a goal to work on and continue to study. Fu Qingran's idea was very simple, although he was grateful that Tang Mu was willing to help him hide it, but he didn't think that he would rely on Tang Mu for the rest of his life, it was best to help her before she gave birth, find an identity for her son, and let her feel at ease.
In fact, Fu Qingran's speculation is not far from the truth, but what Fu Qingran didn't expect was that the internal force that had suppressed Wakasa's internal force recently gradually weakened, and he didn't know if it was finally swallowed up by Wakasa's own internal force, or because of the loss caused by the two-phase struggle.
raised his eyes and looked out the window, but saw that the sky was already full of colorful clouds, and a round of red sun hung on the palace wall and was about to fall, but the Qianqing Palace has always been so quiet and quiet, and it seems that there is no popularity at all.
"What about the emperor?" Fu Qingran asked the maid on the side.
"Lord Qiqi, there are envoys from the Chu Xia Kingdom who have come to pay tribute today, and the emperor is afraid that he is holding a banquet to entertain them now." The little maid didn't dare to object, and replied word by word.
No wonder, no wonder, they all ran to join in the fun, and in the morning there was a group of undead wanderers at the gate of the Qianqing Palace, wanting to wait for Wakasa to arrest her as soon as she went out, but in the afternoon they all disappeared without a trace.
Fu Qingran smiled helplessly, shook his head, and reached out to caress Wakasa's forehead lovingly. But I couldn't help but think in my heart, if you were like this in the past, you would be the fastest one. β
ββββ a little late and then a little more...... (To be continued.) )
