The envoys of Baichangguo, more than 100 people, marched to Tanglin State. Before King Xian came out, he took over the peace agreement submitted to Emperor Li Zimo, the emperor of the Tanglin Kingdom, from Emperor Baichang Guoqingxiang.

King Xian's trip can be said to be a long way to go. Bai Changguo has always been a tributary state of Tanglin. It was only because of this Donglin that Bai Chang had to rely on Tanglin to maintain his position among the thirty-six kingdoms. Also, Bai Chang was just a Pan in Tanglin a long, long time ago, and later became independent on his own. Therefore, in the eyes of the Tanglin royal family, it has never looked like an independent country. It's nothing but an appendage of its aventurine.

At the time of independence, Baichang signed a number of treaties with Tanglin. One of the most intolerable things for Bai Chang is that it not only stipulates Bai Chang's obligation to pay tribute to Tanglin, but also that Bai Chang's government and national defense, no matter how he changes, he must report to Tanglin. It can be said that like Emperor Qingxiang, when he ascended the throne, he had to pass the approval of the emperor of Tanglin before he could ascend the throne.

From this point of view, Bai Chang's so-called independence is nothing but fiction. This made the royal family of Bai Changguo heartbroken, and it has been for many years.

Until Bai Changguo's generation of royal family appeared a virtuous king. King Xian has established a great reputation among the countries. Seeing that the time had come, Bai Chang decided internally to let King Xian try to negotiate with Tanglin, so that Bai Chang could have real autonomy.

When King Xian came out, he was full of confidence, and in the shouts of Emperor Qingxiang and the people, he promised to complete his mission.

Hua Zhengke lobbied the royal family and let his family participate in the envoy group of King Xian.

After the team came out, King Xian deliberately stepped into the carriage of the old lady of the Hua family to express his condolences to the old lady of the flower family. The fame of the old lady is rich in Baichang, and everyone in the world knows the character of the old lady of the flower. Presumably, Hua Lao Taijun can support him in front of Emperor Tanglin.

However, he himself seems to have forgotten that he himself has already formed a lot of bonds with Hua Lao Taijun.

Mrs. Hua didn't even give him a cup of tea, and said, "After so many years of my retreat and practice, why did I hear that His Royal Highness planned to make Shu'er a concubine?" ”

Back then, Hua Xiyan committed suicide by jumping into the river because of his letter of resignation, and in a fit of anger, Hua Taijun went to the palace to pull his virtuous king's collar and put it: if her granddaughter has three long and two short, he will wait for the burial. Later, when Hua Xiyan was found, Hua Xiyan was pregnant, and her reputation as a woman was ruined. Hua Lao Taijun was angry again, rushed to the palace, and asked him to take more than half of the responsibility. In the end, after repeated negotiations between the royal family and the Hua family, King Xian promised that until Hua Xiyan failed to find someone to marry him, he would not talk about the selection of a concubine.

King Xian suddenly remembered this, his eyebrows twisted slightly, but his voice was very peaceful: "Old lady, this matter is not decided by this king, it is proposed by your Hua family to the queen yourself." ”

"Who?" Mrs. Hua immediately looked at her son to settle the account.

Hua Zhengke hurriedly put it to her ear and explained in a whisper: "Mother, this matter is a long story, the main son is thinking about the fertilizer and water not flowing into the fields of outsiders. Anyway, at that time, King Xian will marry a concubine after all, since he is ashamed of Xiyan, it is not good to marry our daughter Shu'er again. ”

How do you know that these words made the old lady slap a chestnut straight to his head: "Bastard thing!" Needless to say, such a bad idea must have been given to you by the Liu family. ”

Hua Zhengke said aggrievedly: "Mother, her idea did not harm the Hua family. Isn't it possible for our Hua family to have a crown princess on the heads of other nobles? King Xian will be the emperor in the future, our Shu'er is the queen, I am the emperor's father-in-law, and the entire Bai Changguo will not have to respect you the empress's grandmother the most. ”

"I keep saying that it is good for the Hua family, but I only remember that Shu'er forgot Xiyan, such a flattering soft bone, my Hua family has been in it from generation to generation, and in your generation, it is simply not a weapon." The more Hua Lao Taijun said, the more angry she became, her anger burned, her sons started their own families, but they were all not angry, the bigger the official did, the more she only knew that she was greedy for small gains, and she had long forgotten the root of the Hua family, so that she had no shame to face the ancestors, and she couldn't even keep her eldest granddaughter. So he pointed his angry finger at his son's head again: "Do you think that the abacus you and the Liu family made is really good for Shu'er?" Take a look at the situation for yourself, Shu'er? ”

"Shu'er, Shu'er, she-" Hua Zhengke trembled, unable to do anything.

"Shu'er has been missing for a long time, has King Xian ever worried about her?"

Listening to the old lady of the Hua family scolding his son, King Xian was originally thinking of watching a good show, but when he didn't pay attention, the old lady pointed the finger at him, which made him embarrassed for a while.

Mrs. Hua didn't look at these people, and waved her sleeves and said, "Please go out of the country." I'm old, I'm not in good health, I'm tired from driving, and I need to rest. ”

King Xian patiently saluted and then walked out of the carriage of the old lady.

Hua Zhengke was just about to follow, but the old lady behind him suddenly grabbed the teacup and threw it on his head: "Bastard thing." What kind of bad fate did Xiyan cultivate to have a father like you! Don't forget, the heirs of the Hua family are both male and female, Xiyan is the eldest daughter, who you want to set up, except for Xiyan, don't think about it. ”

Liu was already worried, listening outside, but now when he heard the old lady say this, he was about to vomit out a mouthful of blood. She has been fighting for so many years, is it easy to be a steproom? gave birth to four daughters for Hua Zhengke, and finally gave birth to a son, but now he is actually disgusted by the old lady!

I knew that I should have killed Hua Xiyan!

The envoys walked on the road for eight days before reaching Tanglin. Prior to this, the Tanglin Eldest Princess's Mansion was lively first. Because of the entrustment of the Empress Dowager Hu, the eldest princess took on the important task of holding the summer lantern festival. Early in the morning, the eldest princess discussed the list of invitations with the concubine, and her daughter pulled her sleeve and begged her to let Li Zimo withdraw the imperial order that forbade her to enter the palace.

"It is said that the saint has a strange temper, and he is better than the first emperor. You brought it upon yourself, and my mother can't speak for you in front of the Holy One. Again, for three days, you go out into the streets to walk around and hang out at someone's house, and it's over. The eldest princess patted her daughter's mischievous hand, "If you are really bored, go back to the boudoir to learn embroidery." Don't think that you are the lord of the county, when you get married, you must have something embroidered by yourself in the dowry. ”

"Mother." Li Jiyao was aggrieved, "I didn't do anything wrong." The royal brother was too harsh on me like this. ”

"And say you didn't do anything wrong?" The eldest princess squinted at her daughter, "Don't you want to think about who you're provoking?" provoked the celebrities in front of the Holy Top. ”

Seeing that the horse master Li Yongkang interjected, he followed the eldest princess to educate his daughter: "Don't say it again." Holy this is for your good. There are many people who are popular. Many people's eyes were staring at Yan Shangshu. You follow up to make do, and you are not afraid of being swept up in right and wrong. The princess and I are afraid that when the time comes, no one will be able to protect you. ”

"Who is staring at Yan Shangshu? What does Yan Shangshu do? Li Jiyao blinked her big confused eyes and asked.

The eldest princess and the concubine both shook their heads and sighed. Their daughter is good at everything, but she has been overprotected by them since she was a child, so that her scheming is too simple.

Li Jiyao saw that one or two ignored her, and stamped her feet and walked out. Sanqi, the maid who followed her, saw that she was circling around in the courtyard and couldn't sit down, so she made a small suggestion: "County Lord, otherwise, go to the palace lady's house and sit." ”

The eldest princess's mansion and the palace family are not familiar with each other, because the palace family is indifferent and unsociable, which makes everyone love to say that the palace family is an immortal behind their backs, and the derogatory meaning is greater than the praise.

Li Jiyao had a deep relationship with the queen of the palace because of her sister-in-law, and later, she often carried the eldest princess to the palace. In Mrs. Palace's house, it is also a pleasing thing to see Mrs. Palace's skillful hand embroidery.

Sanqi's suggestion relieved Li Jiyao's boredom. Li Jiyao applauded, got on the sedan chair, and ran to the palace house.

It just so happened that Mrs. Gong was alone at home, and the servants of the palace family were drying the books in the study in the courtyard together to prevent moisture. Stacks of books were scattered all over the floor.

"The county lord is here." The house slave entered the door to report.

Mrs. Gong was busy leveling the corners of her clothes and went out to greet her.

Li Jiyao entered the door and immediately grabbed the palace lady to play chess.

Madame Gong followed her wishes, set up a chessboard, and played backgammon with her.

In terms of backgammon, Li Jiyao's play is okay, unlike Go, which is rotten to the end. The innocent girl couldn't keep her mouth shut, and the palace lady spit out the grievances in her stomach, saying that Emperor Li Zimo forbade her to enter the palace for no reason, and her own father and mother also said that she should. Speaking of which, this county lord doesn't think there is anything wrong with Hua Xiyan, he just thinks that everyone is talking about Hua Xiyan's rights and wrongs like this, and they are upset for Hua Xiyan.

Mrs. Gong listened to her left and right Yan Shangshu, and when she heard her describe Hua Xiyan's face with an obvious scar, Linglong behind her screamed in a low voice: Isn't this the mother and son she and her wife met in the inn before?

"Linglong, what do you say? Have you ever met Yan Shangshu? Li Jiyao grabbed Linglong's low cry and asked.

Mrs. Gong stood in front of Linglong and said with a slight smile: "County Lord, she is confused. Yan Shangshu is the person who serves the saint in the palace. How could she meet a maid on the street? ”

"Yes." Li Jiyao didn't doubt it, pursed her brows and said, "My imperial brother's temper, the person he likes, has to be tied to him." I asked her to come out of the palace to me, but I thought, difficult, sad to go to the sky. ”

The corners of Madame Gong's mouth smiled slightly.

"Is Miya-sama going home for dinner?" Li Jiyao saw that her maid Sanqi urged her to go back to the house for dinner, and she didn't really want to go back, so she asked.

Mrs. Gong shook her head: "He is entangled in official business, so he shouldn't come back." ”

Li Jiyao clapped her hands happily: "So I can stay here and eat." ”

Sanqi could only roll his eyes at himself, a master who had no rules at all.

Of course, Madame Gong would not refuse her to stay.

Li Jiyao stuck out her little tongue at Mrs. Gong: "In my house, my father and mother can't take care of me anymore, and they want to hold a lantern festival for the Queen Mother." On that day, I'll go to my wife's house again to hide, okay? ”

"The county lord—"

"Every now and then, the banquet is held once and for all, and every time I am called to go, I am tired of it. What did I do there, in addition to accompanying those people to chew the root of the tongue, the rest of the hour, eating, every time I ate my stomach, I had to ask the doctor to take medicine when I went back, the gains outweighed the losses. Li Jiyao spit out the bitter water and couldn't stop.

Madam Gong glanced at her age and said softly, "The county lord is not too young. I think that the princess and the colt both want to start looking for a future husband for the county lord. ”

Li Jiyao's eyelids blinked: "Madam, at that time, how did you help my imperial sister-in-law find a future husband?" ”

The lord of the county spoke without scruples. Madame Gong picked up a handkerchief to cover the corners of her mouth and coughed lightly. Sanqi hurriedly grabbed his master. Li Jiyao regretted it, and sincerely apologized: "Madam, the county lord spoke recklessly. However, I also miss my sister-in-law. Miss her so much. The last time I entered the palace to see Yan Shangshu, I felt like she was very similar to the imperial sister-in-law, good people, good heart, and more importantly, she was as smart as the imperial sister-in-law. Sun Ruyu and Lin Murong wanted to eat her to death, but she easily resolved it, and I felt comfortable when I saw it. ”

Mrs. Gong listened to her quietly, and in front of her eyes, it seemed that the faces of Hua Xiyan's mother and son had reappeared. After Li Jiyao finished speaking, Mrs. Gong mentioned: "Didn't the county lord say that he wanted that painting last time?" I had it reframed, and I wanted Linglong to send it to the princess's mansion. Since the county lord is here today, I will let Linglong take it out of the house so that the county lord can bring it back. ”

"The painting? Is it that self-portrait of the imperial sister-in-law? Li Jiyao was so excited that her eyes lit.

Madame Gong nodded with a smile. In a few moments, Linglong took out a scroll from the room. Li Jiyao took it with both hands, stroked it carefully, and said, "I want to hide it, and I must not be revealed by my imperial brother, otherwise, he will snatch it away again." ”

This made Mrs. Gong listen to the slight bitterness in her heart while raising the corners of her lips.

In the palace, Hua Xiyan fed Lucui medicine, and when she saw that the patient's fever had basically subsided, she let out a sigh.

Li Shunde came to her and said that the Holy One wanted her to come over.

In the past few days, I don't know what the dog emperor suddenly changed his mind, and he no longer looked for her every day to make things difficult for her, and she was able to treat Lucui's injuries quietly in the house. Now, he suddenly called her over again, and he didn't know what was going on.

After tidying up his clothes, when he walked with Li Shunde, he asked on the way: "Father-in-law Li, where are we going?" ”

"The Yunxiang Hall where the Holy Lord received foreign envoys."

The envoy led by King Ken entered Tanglin Kyoto, however, it was not given a particularly grand welcome. According to Li Zimo's frugal style, foreign missions, if they are not large countries, will only entertain the saints for the sake of the subordinate countries. King Xian's convoy entered the East City Gate, and there were no people and troops on both sides of the road to welcome him, only a minister of etiquette sent by Li Zimo as a reception and guide. The convoy of more than 100 people and horses mixed into the streets in the capital of Tanglin, and the people of Tanglin, because they had seen too many envoys who came to worship their emperor, did not pay attention to such a small envoy group as King Xian.

Such an encounter made King Xian, who was full of ambition to come to Tanglin, pour cold water on his heart, and the sweat in his palms made him feel the arduousness of this task, which he probably could not have expected.

Speaking of which, Bai Changguo went to Tanglin to face the saint, and there were several times a year. Generally, the ministers appointed by Emperor Bai Changguo led a delegation. Therefore, it is not always possible to see the emperor himself. When Emperor Qingxiang ascended the throne, he once came to Tanglin once, and it is said that that meeting left Emperor Qingxiang with an unbearable afterimage in his heart, and Emperor Qingxiang has avoided meeting directly with the Tanglin royal family. King Xian, as the crown prince, this is the 065th chapter of his life, and the inn where the group stayed was a little anxious. Because she is not an official of Bai Changguo, she can't face the saint directly, so she can only let her son go in with King Xian to inquire about the emperor's tone first. Changfu accompanied her, and was also very worried about the lives of Hua Xiyan's mother and son.

After a long time, Hua Zhengke was carried back with a wooden board by several people, and his life was in danger.

"Sir!" Changfu knelt down and tried to wake up Hua Zhengke.

Hua Zhengke's eyes were closed, unable to answer. When Liu heard the news, he rushed to Hua Zhengke and cried bitterly, shouting, "Who did it?" ”

Mrs. Hua hurriedly stuffed the Hua family's heart-saving pill into her son's mouth, and ordered the Liu family to stop crying and mourning, and then asked the person who carried Hua Zhengke back to understand the whole story.

Another envoy who witnessed everything in the hall said, "Don't mention it, it's all caused by the eldest lady of your Hua family." ”

"Xiyan?" The Hua family was surprised.

"Yes. She sued the emperor, saying that the royal family of Bai Changguo and her sister-in-law wanted to kill her and her son, and now, the emperor of Tanglin protects her. ”

After hearing this, Liu's head was dizzy, and after being helped up by the maid, both rows of teeth were shaking: "She, she, she-Taijun, look, this is Xiyan, she wants to kill, kill her father and her sister-"

Hua Lao Taijun's white eyebrows furrowed: "Is this serious?" That's impossible. I'm going to see Yuyan in person. ”

"She's in the palace of the Tanglin Kingdom, how can I see her?"

"Since she knows that she is in the hands of the Donglin monarch, she is my granddaughter, and I am her grandmother, how can the emperor not let our ancestors and grandchildren meet?" The old lady said solemnly, without the slightest hesitation, threw her sleeves and went out, wanting to be saintly.

As soon as the old lady stepped out of the threshold, in the corridor, she saw a glorious and wealthy woman walking towards her. And the Liu family, who was following her, saw the person coming, and immediately knelt down in fear and bowed: "Su Qing Niangniang." ”

Chapter 065 of the world get out of the way. Liu kowtowed and thanked Dade. Jin Suqing entered the house, saw the seriously injured Hua Zhengke, and sighed: "How did you get this?" ”

Someone said something in Jin Suqing's ear.

Jin Suqing sighed again: "Lord Hua, I don't know." ”

"I don't know?" The Hua family all pricked up their ears, could it be that Hua Zhengke's injury had another inside story.

"Yes, right now, this eldest lady of the Hua family is a celebrity in front of the emperor, and she is regarded as the imperial scholar. Don't you know? ”

Liu Shi was out of breath. Her daughter is dying, but Hua Xiyan has become the imperial secretary. This, how can she not breathe.

Mrs. Hua was even more stunned: "How is this possible?" ”

Based on her understanding of her granddaughter, Hua Xiyan is a waste, of course, she will not dislike this granddaughter because she is a waste, and Hua Xiyan in Jin Suqing's mouth is a talent.

Changfu then thought of a series of differences from the previous ones after Hua Xiyan returned to Hua's house, and quietly whispered in Hua Taijun's ear.

Mrs. Hua's face gradually became heavy.

Jin Suqing's imperceptible gaze swept over the respective expressions of the Hua family, and finally settled on the face of the old lady Hua.

King Xian wandered around the house, because the name Yan Shangshu was very famous in the Tanglin Imperial Capital recently, it would not reach his ears. In the end, he sat down on the chair heavily, his thin eyebrows were tightened, and the fog was clear: he didn't want a woman, why did the Dongling Emperor treat it as a treasure?

If it weren't for the person who knew Li Zimo, he would have mistakenly thought that Li Zimo's brain was in water. But Li Zimo will never do anything unfavorable to himself, what is the reason.

"Huh." King Xian burst out laughing.

"Your Highness?" Chang Qing was worried, and when he saw that his master had come back from the face of the saint, he seemed to be a different person, and he seemed to be a little depressed.

King Xian let go of his clenched sweaty fist, and his eyes narrowed: "This king wants to write a letter, you immediately help this king send the letter back to Bai Changguo and submit it to my father." Emperor Tanglin wants me to give an explanation, right? This king is not sorry to give! ”

With the arrival of the Hua family, the true identity of Yan Shangshu as the waste lady of the Hua family immediately spread in the aristocratic circle of Kyoto.

The eldest princess who hosted the Lantern Festival became entangled in every way, and the invitations were already out one by one. Whether Li Zimo comes or not is not something she can decide, but since she was entrusted by Empress Dowager Hu, she came up with a way to give Hua Xiyan an invitation. Thinking that he might be able to seduce Li Zimo. How do you know, suddenly there is such an ending. It is no longer appropriate to withdraw the invitation.

Returning to Yongning Palace, soon, Hua Xiyan received an invitation to the Lantern Festival from the Eldest Princess's Mansion. Li Shunde watched her open the invitation and reminded her softly: "Miss Yan, it's better to talk to the saint." ”

Hua Xiyan pinched the invitation with her fingers, suddenly remembering everything she had in Yunxiang Hall today, and her heart had a slight change in her heart about this man, and she asked, "What about the saint?" ”

"The saint is busy reading the excerpts." Li Shunde sighed softly, referring to Li Zimo's workaholism as long as he worked.

Hua Xiyan moved into the room where he worked, and when he walked to the door and didn't step into the door, he saw a dusty figure, reflected on the screen. I saw that the man was concentrated, and his body was covered with layers of ice that prevented everything. Disturbing other people's work is the least good thing she is at doing, so she took the step back, turned around, and asked Li Shunde: "I heard that the saint has agreed, let me see my son at any time." ”

"Miss Yan, the saint should be able to write from chapter 065 to the turning point....
