Listening to the chatter of the shopkeeper Long, Ying Wei suddenly remembered the two words blurted out by Feng Xiyan today, at that time, in order to pretend that he didn't hear it, he behaved normally.

However, there was already a storm in my heart, but after thinking about it, no, maybe I heard it wrong, how could Feng Xiyan be the emperor, she is a girl, although she is pretending to be a man, she is indeed a girl.

How could the emperor of the Daning Dynasty be a girl?

But now, with the words of the shopkeeper Long, the negation that he had suppressed came up again.

"I think, she must be a princess or county lord who sneaked out for fun, otherwise, how could she know a general ......like Li Mao."

"Master, you are ......."

Before the shopkeeper finished speaking, he saw Ying Wei slowly getting up from the ground, with a cold face, not looking at him, turning around and walking towards the outside of the courtyard, he chased after him in confusion and shouted at his back.

"I'm tired, go back and rest."

Ying didn't look back and dropped such a sentence, and continued to walk forward without stopping.

Looking at the thin shoulders, the shopkeeper sighed helplessly, forcing a child like this, he really had no other way.

After the agreed three days, His Majesty will definitely appear in front of everyone, and the ministers headed by the Empress Dowager Li will not use this matter to make trouble, but wait with peace of mind, and do their best to assist the Empress Dowager Li in handling the affairs of the court.

Because the Daning Dynasty produced a large number of talents, people with all-round talents in civil and military affairs abounded in the court, coupled with the ability of the Li Mao family to fight well, there were countless vassal states that depended on the Daning Dynasty after the defeat.

Therefore, there are countless vassal states that come to the Daning Dynasty every year to pay tribute.

This year, the affiliated Daiyue Kingdom, which came to pay tribute to the Daning Dynasty, was the most active, becoming the first foreign vassal state to set foot on the land of the Daning Dynasty.

In the court, Empress Dowager Li warmly received the envoys of the Great Moon Kingdom who came to pay tribute.

"The envoys came from afar, all the way to my Daning Dynasty, hard work, later, the mourning family should treat the envoys well, for you to pick up the wind and wash the dust."

"Thank you Empress Dowager, the ministers are not hard, it is an honor for the ministers to come to the Daning Dynasty."

The envoy of the Great Moon Kingdom put his hands on his chest and bent slightly towards the Empress Dowager Li behind the bead curtain.

"Da Yue and I have been friends for several years, and we have long been inseparable from each other, and the envoys come here, just like coming to home, and there is no need to be polite."

"Thank you for the warm reception of the Queen Mother and all the friends, so that the ministers feel at home, this time, the ministers came to the Daning Dynasty to pay tribute on the orders of the lord of the country, this year's tribute, the ministers have been transported to the outside of the palace, and please ask the Queen Mother to allow the ministers to move up."

The envoys from the Otsuki Dynasty, led by Samoyed, are different from last year, this year's Samoyed is a fresh face, which can be said to be unheard of.

"So, the mourning family has allowed it."

Even if the emperor was not there, Shangguan Candle, as one of the most powerful eunuchs around the emperor, had to be stationed in his own position to listen, and then relay what happened in the court to the emperor.

Therefore, Feng Xiyan is not there, and Shangguan Candle is still stationed at his post.

Looking at the new face in the hall, Shangguan Candle's eyes flashed with suspicion when he heard that he couldn't wait to start bringing up the tribute.

Empress Dowager Li is a woman who is short-sighted, and when she heard that people were bringing tribute, she couldn't wait to agree, and she didn't think deeply, and she didn't let people take out the gift list first.

This Samoyed has been smiling and hiding a knife since he entered the temple, and his eyes are ill-intentioned, and he is prepared at a glance.

Sure enough, after Empress Dowager Li agreed, a triumphant smile quickly flashed on the corner of Samoyed's mouth, and then instructed the other envoys to carry the tribute to the palace.

Soon, box after box of things was brought to the temple, and the box was so closed that it was impossible to see what was inside.

Shangguan Candle's eyes darkened.

"Queen Mother, these are all tributes from our lord to the Daning Dynasty, please take a look."

After the boxes were moved, Samoyed bowed to Empress Dowager Li and replied respectfully.

Empress Dowager Li raised her hand and agreed with a smile on her face.

"Let's get started."

After receiving permission, Samoyed turned and nodded to his subordinates, and then the boxes placed in the front were opened in turn.

The first box is a chest full of gold, the second is a box full of jewels, the third is a box full of curiosities, and the fourth is a box full of silk and satin.

After opening the first four boxes, from the fifth box onwards, they were never opened, and Samoyed respectfully explained.

"Queen Mother, the back box contains the same things as the first few boxes, and the minister thinks that there is no need to continue to open it, so, what do you think of it after looking at it?"

Empress Dowager Li nodded with satisfaction, and was about to speak, Shangguan Candle respectfully saluted Empress Dowager Li, and then interrupted what she was about to say.

"Empress Dowager Qi, the servant thinks, you should take a look at the tribute list first, and then decide whether to continue to open the back box without continuing to open."

was interrupted by Shangguan Candle, Empress Dowager Li glanced at him dissatisfied, but these words reminded her, so she didn't care, but said to Samoyed with a smile.

"There is a list of tributes, and when the mourning family sees it, it will be clear at a glance, and the box behind it doesn't matter much if it can't be opened."

Samoyed's face changed instantly, and he glared at the mouthy Shangguan Candle with great dissatisfaction, and then asked the Empress Dowager Li.

"The Queen Mother doesn't trust her ministers? The dignified Ning Kingdom, when will it be possible for the eunuch to be in charge? Or is it that the current Daning Kingdom is controlled by eunuchs, and even the Queen Mother has to obey the will of a eunuch? And what about His Majesty of the Daning Dynasty? Why doesn't it show up? Do you look down on our subjects? ”

With these words, Samoyed instantly took the situation firmly into its own hands.

The Queen Mother glared at Shangguan Candle angrily, and just wanted to speak, but he continued to interrupt again.

"This lord, what you said is not right at all, the slave is a person from the Daning Dynasty, speaking for his own country, it is a matter of course, how can he control the government?"

Without waiting for Samoyed to speak, Shangguan Candle continued.

"Saying, the reason why the slave opened his mouth to remind the Queen Mother just now was also because he saw that the Lord said that he was not continuing to open the box, so thinking that the Queen Mother had a tribute list, and there was no need to work so hard to continue the envoys of the Great Moon Country, and he looked down on the subject countries and the like, where did he start?"

Shangguan Candle retorted reasonably, making the royalists present all applaud in their hearts.

"As for Your Majesty, because you are not feeling well, the Queen Mother will receive the envoys."
