Chapter 104: Preparations
"You didn't say anything to me, the prince is still ready to welcome the Xiongnu princess, so let's count it, but in seven days, she will arrive at the post station outside Kyoto." Liu Nianru said.
She looked calm and breezy, and she didn't seem to mind that she would marry someone else.
Duan Bailan asked very unwillingly, "Could it be that you don't mind at all and will marry someone else?" ”
Liu Nianru looked at Duan Bailan with some confusion, as if she didn't understand why he said this: "Should I mind?" Wouldn't you and the princess just match, if you can pull the power of the Huns to support you, then your power will be greatly enhanced, so that I will cooperate with the prince, and I will get more benefits. ”
Obviously this is not the case, obviously she doesn't want him to marry someone else at all. But there was a voice in her heart that said to her, maybe Duan Bailan married someone else, and she would be able to have nothing to do with him anymore.
From then on, he was still the one who had no worries, no weaknesses and no flaws.
"Do you really think so? Do you think the emperor will be willing to increase my power? Do you think that princess has no problem at all? Duan Bailan smiled self-deprecatingly, and then said, "Still, you are a person who has no heart." ”
If she had a heart, how could she not understand her feelings for her, but she still pushed herself out again and again.
Even such a big flaw, as smart as her, how could she not know. She just did it on purpose. deliberately widened the distance between the two of them, pretending to be strangers, but unfortunately, he still had nothing to do with her.
She watched Duan Bailan leave again, clutching her chest, only to feel a pain in her chest. It was a strange feeling, like a big rock pressed against my chest.
On the second day, she got up early in the morning, and as soon as she arrived in the courtyard, she saw Xu Shiyuan standing here.
She was still surprised, didn't this person usually hide from herself? Why was it automatically delivered to the door today.
"Xu Shiyuan, why did you come to this county lord?" Liu Nianru asked with a yawn.
She has always been angry to get up, and she didn't sleep well last night, so she is a little in good spirits today.
Xu Shiyuan lowered his head and said with an aggrieved expression: "It was the emperor who asked me to act as the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, and follow the prince and the county lord to prepare to welcome the Xiongnu envoy and the princess." ”
One can imagine how reluctant he was to do this errand. After all, you have to be with the county lord who has a lot to do.
"Oh, then why did you ask you to act as a proxy? What about Shaoqing of Dali Temple? Nothing has happened lately, has it? Liu Nianru asked.
She remembered that the position of Shaoqing of Dali Temple had never been missing, and there had always been someone to hold it, so she felt strange.
"I met him yesterday, he said he wanted to compete with me, so I had a competition, who knew that he had always been beaten, deliberately fell out of the ring, broke three ribs, the emperor was angry, so let me take the position of Shaoqing of Dali Temple." Xu Shiyuan said.
Changwu brought Liu Nianru a cup of tea, Liu Nianru took a sip, and said slowly: "Congratulations, congratulations, promoted to Shaoqing of Dali Temple." ”
"Just proxy's
。 Xu Shiyuan said indignantly: "Obviously he designed me, he, Shaoqing, can't do anything all year round, and when it was his turn to take care of things, he pretended to be a sick cat for me." The benefits are all given to him. ”
"You know he designed you, you are still in the trap, I really don't know how you survived to this day." Liu Nianru complained.
She looked at Xu Shiyuan pitifully, who was designed by Duan Bailan, and now by Shaoqing of Dali Temple. If he was the emperor, maybe he would have cut him down a long time ago, and he would have more than enough success.
"My subordinates know it's wrong." Xu Shiyuan drooped his head, "This is not a special place to hand over matters with you, arrange it." The princess and the envoys could not be neglected. ”
Liu Nianru nodded, and suddenly thought of something.
She and Duan Bailan have no experience in receiving envoys, that is to say, this matter is pressed on the three of them, and Xu Shiyuan still seems to be an unreliable person.
"You quickly find some information on how to welcome the envoys in previous years, and give a reference, this matter is very important, and you can't mess it up." Liu Nianru said that she was so anxious that she choked on a few sips of tea.
This matter can be big or small, if it is big, it will be a diplomatic incident, maybe the emperor will take the opportunity to attack again.
Damn, how could he send a Xu Shiyuan who didn't have any experience to do this?
"Yes!" Xu Shiyuan's eyes lit up, and he immediately went to do this matter.
Sure enough, you still have to follow the prince and the county lord, and you can't suffer a loss if you follow them.
After Xu Shiyuan left, Liu Nianru hurriedly went back to the room, whistled, and shouted out the shadow.
Even Changwu and Aya didn't know about the existence of the shadow, and the level of secrecy was super high.
"County Lord, do you have anything to do with your subordinates?" The shadow knelt on the ground and asked, puzzled.
"Have you asked Moon Shadow what Duan Bailan has been doing lately? Obviously, the emperor sent him to greet the princess, but Xu Shiyuan came to me. Liu Nianru asked.
She had always disliked this kind of trouble, and it wasn't her responsibility to do it.
The shadow cautiously replied: "Back to the county lord, the shadow doesn't know about the prince, and he and the moon shadow have rarely exchanged news recently. ”
Liu Nianru looked like she hated iron but not steel, and when the shadow saw that she was about to get angry, she hurriedly said: "It was the county lord who ordered me not to communicate with the moon shadow." ”
Liu Nianru pointed at him, but he didn't say anything for a long time, he really moved a stone and hit his own foot. It's just that at this moment, it's not good to take back what I once said.
"You go and ask Moon Shadow, what has the prince been doing recently, by the way, don't forget to remind him that some things are his responsibility, not someone else's." Liu Nianru said.
She was huffing and puffing, and she always felt that nothing had gone well recently.
The shadow was just about to leave, but Liu Nianru stopped him again.
"By the way, you've had a lot of people lately, right? Go and find out how many messengers are there and how many people are around the princess. I always feel that this matter is not quite right, I am afraid that someone will interfere with it, and you will send a team of people to secretly protect the princess
, Absolutely can't let her have a little trouble, hear? Liu Nianru commanded.
She only now realized how much she had overlooked. Or some time ago in the General's Mansion, she was closed to news.
After all, Donglin Jun looked at her, and she couldn't expose her secret agent, didn't she use it as a target?
Moon Shadow took the order and hurriedly retreated. The county lord's heart, the needle at the bottom of the sea, really makes him a little unpredictable!
