Volume 4 The Envoy Chapter 1 Stormy Journey

No matter how unbearable you can't bear to part, there will always be a time to separate; No matter how much you don't want to disperse, there will always be a moment when the song ends.

On the morning of the day when the northern beauty envoy arrived in the Ming Dynasty, the sky turned up for no reason and a cool breeze began to drizzle, and the land of Nanmian, which had not lacked sunshine and temperature, was shrouded in a gloomy coolness.

In the square in front of the main entrance of the palace, there were five carriages pulled by two horses, and on both sides of the carriages and on the thick curtain in front of the carriage were engraved or printed with a blooming red cotton, which was particularly dazzling in this gloomy environment.

In front of the carriage, there was a circle of people to see them off.

Standing in a cool breeze and drizzle, facing a similar parting scene and a similar face, King Nanmian's heart couldn't help but feel sad and sour. He grabbed Bei Juese's hand tightly, and there were thousands of words and instructions in his heart that he wanted to say to Bei Juese, who was about to leave him, but he couldn't say a word in his throat.

Concubine Ming seemed to see through the thoughts in King Nanmian's heart. She stepped forward and gently held his hand, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, people say that nobles go out in the wind and rain. There has been no rain here for more than two months, and it rained as soon as the prince went out today, which is really a good sign! The prince's envoy to Daming this time will definitely return smoothly and safely. ”

Ruan Jinglun also came over and reminded: "Your Majesty, it's time to go. ”

King Nanmian squeezed out a smile and let go of Bei Jue's hand. All the words that choked in his throat and finally came out: "Be careful on the road, Father will wait for your safe return." ”

Bei Juese smiled and said, "Father, rest assured, the king will return safely." Father, mother, take care, the king is leaving. He bent down again and patted Nanling's head, "Sister Nanling, when Brother Wang is away, you have to take care of your father and mother on behalf of Brother Wang." ”

Nanling patted her chest and smiled sweetly and said, "No problem! Brother Wang just has to go to Daming with peace of mind. ”

Bei Juese smiled and touched her head again, straightened up and gave a farewell salute to King Nanmian and Concubine Ming, and then turned around and boarded the carriage parked on the side. Ruan Jinglun and his entourage went to King Nanmian and Concubine Ming one by one to salute, and then boarded different carriages.

The coachman shouted, raised the whip in his hand, and the wheels of the carriage began to roll slowly forward. Bei Jue Se stuck his head out of the car and waved goodbye to the people who saw him off, and the King of Nan Mian responded with a smile in his heart, he watched the carriage go faster and faster, and finally disappeared at the end of the long street with Bei Jue Se, and he took back his sour hand in a lost place.

Concubine Ming comforted him and said: "Your Majesty, the prince has many capable people around him to assist and protect, and this envoy will definitely return safely, so we don't need to worry too much." ”

King Nanmian didn't answer, but sighed, his face was unconcealably worried.

Concubine Ming said softly: "If the king is still not at ease, why don't we fast and pray for the prince from today until the prince returns safely, okay?" ”

King Nanmian showed a little joy and said, "Concubine Ming's idea is very good. Jin Huai! He summoned the palace people who were waiting on the side, "Spread the king's edict: From now on, no killing is allowed in the palace until the team that sent the Ming Dynasty returns safely." ”

Jin Huai bowed his head and bowed his waist in response: "The slave obeys the order." ”

Bei Juese, who had already gone away, didn't know what King Nanmian and Concubine Ming had done for him. At this time, he was trapped in the carriage and was dizzy from Meng Qing's 100,000 why.

This time, in addition to the Dong Wushu and the Meng family brothers and sisters who closely protected him, Ruan Jinglun, the Minister of Culture who took on the heavy responsibility of diplomats, and his own scholars, Chen Yu and the dart master who were very excited to finally go home, there were also more than a dozen elite guards of the Wang family to protect along the way, as well as two accompanying medical officers.

Originally, Meng Chao's personal bodyguard should have sat in the same car as Bei Juese, but he and his good partner Kitten were really huge, and after one person and one tiger walked into the carriage, it was almost equivalent to five or six people squeezing in at the same time, which made the carriage, which was originally spacious for three or four people, suddenly become oppressive. Moreover, sitting in the same carriage with the overly majestic little tiger day and night, Bei Juese always felt a little unaccustomed and a little nervous.

After negotiation, it was finally arranged for Meng Chao and Xiaohu to sit in the same car with their grandfather Ruan Jinglun, and Bei Juese sat in the same car with Dong Wuyi, Meng Qing, Chen Yu and Dart Master; The others sat in three separate cars.

As soon as the carriage left the long street of Nanmian City, Meng Qing, who couldn't sit still, began to ask all kinds of questions to the north, to be precise, all kinds of strange and miscellaneous problems related to Daming. I don't know where she found so many questions, and she could ask them again and again.

Because Dong Wushu put on a wooden face of "don't approach the living" at the beginning, Chen Yu and the dart master gradually felt powerless after answering a few questions, so they had to pretend to be focused on enjoying the scenery outside the window, pretending not to hear Meng Qing's question.

So, the kindest and worst at rejecting others, Bei Juese, was endlessly entangled by the problem girl Meng Qing. He was overwhelmed by Meng Qing's various strange questions, and suddenly regretted it, regretting why he didn't get Meng Qing to another car, so that the taciturn Meng Chao and the non-talking kitten were in the same car as him?

Seeing that he was entangled by Meng Qing, the other people in the same car ignored it very unsympathetically, pretending to be asleep, and pretending to look at the scenery. In the end, Bei Juese, who was asked a lot of words and couldn't find a replacement for the dead ghost, yawned in a hurry, pretended to be tired and said: "For the sake of the Ming Dynasty, I was so nervous that I didn't sleep well all night last night, and now I feel very sleepy." ”

Hearing him say this, Meng Qing hurriedly said, "Your Royal Highness the Prince, are you sleepy?" I'll make your bed for you! ”

At the back of the carriage is a soft slump that can accommodate a person to lie down. Meng Qing stepped forward and spread out the quilt on it, set the pillow, smiled at Bei Jue and said, "His Royal Highness the Prince, the bed is made, you can rest well." ”

As soon as Bei Juese put his body on the bed, Meng Qing immediately pulled up the quilt for him, and said with a sweeter smile: "His Royal Highness the Prince, remember to continue to tell me about Daming when you wake up!" I still have a lot more to know! ”

Do you want to continue? Bei Jue's face couldn't help but change slightly. He sighed, quickly turned around and faced the plank of the carriage, pretending to be asleep! The journey to Daming is long, and how many "whys" do you have to answer Meng Qing to reach your destination? No, let's find a way to replace Meng Chao!

Bei Juese carefully calculated in his heart to see how he could transfer the Meng family brothers and sisters. After calculating it, he was just going to pretend to be asleep, but the drowsiness really climbed up. As he said just now, he didn't sleep all night last night for the mission of Daming, and he didn't close his eyes a little until just before dawn.

Bei Jue, who was dizzy by Meng Qing's question, fell asleep peacefully in the shaking carriage with the sound of rain, horses' hooves and wheels outside the car.
