Xiao Jin returned to the eldest son's mansion from the post house, and after meeting with Zhao Qing'er, he only said that Gu Daoyuan led him to ask about the recruitment of Lian Min at the beginning, and deliberately hid other things from talking.

But Zhao Qing'er was still frightened after listening to Xiao Jin's story, and hurriedly told Xiao Jin to wait for Xiao Zishuo to fly away with herself after Xiao Zishuo's affairs, she didn't want to be afraid of these things anymore.

Xiao Jin saw that his beloved was so nervous, so he agreed with a warm heart.

The two talked about some miscellaneous matters again, and when the sky was getting late and the candles were bright, Xiao Jin walked out of the house where Zhao Qing'er lived.

He did not return to his residence, but went to the gate of Gongzi's Mansion to wait for Xiao Zishuo's news.

Finally, in the dead of night, a person hurriedly ran from the direction of the Qinglong Palace, and when the person saw Xiao Jin waiting outside the gate of the eldest son's mansion, he knew that it was the person entrusted by the eldest son, and hurriedly handed the letter in his sleeve to Xiao Jin.

The letter naturally wrote what happened in the Qinglong Palace today, Xiao Jin hurriedly opened the letter and took a closer look, and he was a little uneasy while being happy.

He hurriedly took the messenger to his room, hurriedly wrote the reply, handed it to the messenger, and brought it into the Green Dragon Palace.

Although Xiao Zishuo has performed quite brilliantly in the Qinglong Hall today, judging from the letter, it seems that he has faintly won the support and praise of two of the three secretaries and Xiangbang Tianfu.

But Xiao Jin still noticed a hint of strangeness, that is, Mrs. Mi's intriguing attitude.

Therefore, after analysis, Xiao Jin told Xiao Zishuo not to be complacent and lower his guard because of today's events, and at the same time, he should beware of Mrs. Mi and Gongziyan secretly attacking Xiao Zishuo.

Judging from the letter, what worries Xiao Jin the most is Xiao Zishuo's complacent attitude.

Early the next morning, Xiao Jin unexpectedly received a message sent by Gu Daoyuan, asking him to go with him to the Qinglong Palace to mourn the Duke of Qi.

Xiao Jin naturally understands that this is the first condolence ceremony presided over by Xiao Zishuo, who is the eldest son, after returning to Qi State, and the envoys and nobles who came to Qi Country from all over the world will go to the Qinglong Hall to participate in the ceremony today.

When Xiao Jin came to the post house, he happened to meet Gu Daoyuan, Fang Hengxin and others who were about to set off for the Qinglong Palace.

Seeing Xiao Jin's sudden arrival, Edo, who was behind Gu Daoyuan, spoke first, he glanced at Xiao Jin in surprise and asked:

"You're not in the eldest prince's mansion, what are you doing here? I'll talk about it when I get back. ”

It turned out that Edo thought that Xiao Geun was looking for him, so he showed an impatient look.

"General Jiang, he was invited by me, General Jiang doesn't mind."

Just as Xiao Jin was about to explain to Edo, he saw that Gu Daoyuan, who had already walked away, turned around and walked to the two of them, and said with a smile at Edo.

Although Edo didn't know the relationship between Gu Daoyuan and Xiao Jin, he had also heard about Zhao Zhihai's search for Xiao Jin when he was at the Huangtian Ferry that day.

So although he was always a little curious, because he was afraid of Gu Daoyuan beside him, Edo still hesitated for a moment, smiled and said that he didn't mind, and left in a hurry.

Having dealt with these smiling politicians for a long time, Edo naturally understands that there are some things that don't have to be known.

Gu Daoyuan took Xiao Jin's arm and asked him to follow him into the Qin State's condolence mission.

The group walked for a short time before entering the Green Dragon Palace.

Some of the envoys and nobles of the countries had already come to the Qi State, and some had even been here for more than a month, such as the case of the Right Genyong Shuzhao of the Qin State.

Although they had already come to the Qi State and were ceremoniously received by the Qi State, because the eldest son was not in the country, the condolence ceremony could not be carried out, so to this day, it was the first time they entered the Qinglong Palace.

Everyone was outside the Qinglong Palace, and when they waited for Uncle Yong, who came to the front and back, they greeted the bigger man on the right and followed the white-haired old man to the Qi Palace behind the Qinglong Palace.

According to the rank of each country, the envoys of the Qin State of Condolence will be the last to enter the main bed to mourn after the State of Chu and the State of Shu.

Seeing the people of Chu and Shu going in and out, he could only stand under the scorching sun outside the palace and wait, although these Qin people everyone had a look of disdain on their faces, but thinking that this was also the rule of the past dynasties, the unhappiness in his heart was not so strong.

"Hehe, you have all seen that the Son of Heaven divided the seal and gave the position of the three princes to the three monarchs of Qi, Chu and Shu, while my Qin State did not get anything because of the decline of national strength.

Now we can only follow behind them, and it is not our turn to do anything Qin people first.

But you also have to know that in the past ten years, no matter where the people of the Three Kingdoms are, whenever they see me, who of the Qin Kingdom has not lowered their heads and walked with their heads down?

Therefore, you should remember that although the title is heavy, it is like dung in the eyes of my Great Qin people, and respect is obtained by virtue of the weapons in your hands, not the likes and dislikes of the Son of Heaven. ”

Seeing the envoys of Chu and Shu entering the palace one after another to offer condolences, the white-haired Yong Shuzhao said slowly to Gu Daoyuan, Fang Hengxin and others behind him.

He saw the disdain and resentment in everyone's eyes, and naturally wanted to encourage and comfort everyone's mood.

"What the greater man on the right said is that we must take it to heart."

As soon as Uncle Yong said this, Gu Daoyuan stepped forward and replied to him on behalf of everyone.

Uncle Yong glanced at Gu Daoyuan, smiled and nodded.

"You are Gu Daoyuan, after I go back, I will discuss it with the middle and larger people, it seems that talents like you should not be used by him alone in Suibei City, and you should also serve the country and worry about the king."

After everyone heard Uncle Yong's words, they were all taken aback, but these words had another meaning in everyone's ears, this is to let Gu Daoyuan enter the center, and the worst thing will be a squire.

Therefore, everyone threw envy and congratulations towards Gu Daoyuan.

Gu Daoyuan was also happy in his heart, although Zhao Zhihai had tried his best to promote himself to the center in the past few years, but he always had to exchange some benefits with Yong Shuzhao and Fang Yuanheng, so there has been no progress in the past few years, today Yong Shuzhao took the initiative to talk about it, how could he make Gu Daoyuan not excited.

He endured the excitement in his heart, and thanked Uncle Yong in his mouth, and bowed and worshipped.

Yong Shuzhao was obviously quite satisfied with Gu Daoyuan's attitude, so he touched his long beard and said with a smile:

"But whoever serves my Great Qin is loyal, my old man can also see it, no matter who you are, my Uncle Yong will be impartial and let you show something.

Because only in this way can we gather talents, and then realize the goal of making the country rich and the people strong, and not being bullied.

Alright, it's our turn, let's get inside. ”

Uncle Yong Zhao said as he walked in towards Qi Gong Zhengyu.

Fang Cai Yongshu's words were not only heard by the Qin people behind him, but also by the people of Chu and Shu who had finished their condolences.

So when the people of the Qin State entered the main bed, some of those people became noisy.

"This Qin people look down on people too much."

"Yes, this old puppet scolds people without dirty words, which is really arrogant."

"This white-haired old man spoke like this in front of us, it seems that he deliberately came to humiliate us, and he can't be humiliated, and he fought with this old horseman."

Listening to the noisy sound of everyone for a while, the soldiers outside the gate of the Qi Palace wanted to stop drinking, and the ancestors of the Qi State were lying in the palace, but these envoys were noisy outside the palace, how could this be.

But no matter how much the soldiers spoke to dissuade them, the envoys of Chu and Shu cursed and complained, and the voices became louder and louder.

"Shut up!"

Just when the situation was a little out of control, only to hear a burst of bean-like sound suddenly appeared in everyone's ears.

I saw an old man walking out of the Chu State Mission, although his hair was gray, his face was dark, and his deep eyes were full of essence. It can be seen that he must have been a battle-hardened man when he was young.

The old man walked up to the front and back, squinting at the people of the Chu State, and those people all lowered their heads, not daring to look up at the old man.

"Did Uncle Yong say something wrong? Which of you would dare to lead your troops to war with the Qin State?

I don't know how to be ashamed, I only dare to speak quickly here, shameful! ”

The old man said, looked up at the envoys of Shu on the opposite side, and when his eyes found one of the middle-aged men, he snorted and turned away to ignore everyone.

But the people of Chu were as quiet as greetings and did not dare to speak, even though the old man had already burrowed into the crowd.

"Who is this old man?" When the people of Shu saw that the envoys of Chu no longer spoke, naturally no one made any loud noises, but some people curiously asked the people next to them who the old man who spoke was.

"Don't you even know him? Slaughtering nine counties in January, killing Manze in half a day, have you heard? ”

"Ah, it turned out to be Mi Xiao, this old pervert is still alive?"

"Shhh

One of them hurriedly waved his hand at the person who spoke, signaling him to stop talking nonsense.

It's just that the discussion of these people was heard by the old man named Mi Xiao, he stopped, turned his head to look in the direction of the envoy of the Shu Kingdom, and showed a chilling fierce look in his eyes.

"Let Lord Yin calm his anger, it is okay for Liu Zhiyu to be under control, and please let Lord Yin not be surprised."

The middle-aged man who was the leader of the envoys of Shu hurriedly came out of the queue and said respectfully to Mi Xiao.

"Today's national funeral of the Qi country, the old man and you are both guests, and your father also has an old relationship with me, so I will not embarrass you today.

It's just that you have to give an explanation to me, an old man who has been half-cut into the ground, otherwise what face will my old man have to dominate his subordinates in the future. ”

After Liu Zhi heard Mi Xiao's words, he breathed a sigh of relief, he turned his head to look at the person who had just spoken behind him, and glanced at the two people beside him, and the two walked out with the person who spoke.

At this time, Yong Shuzhao and the people of Qin had already finished mourning, and they walked out of the main bed accompanied by Xiao Zishuo, who was full of filial piety clothes.

After some greetings, Xiao Zishuo led Uncle Yong to walk towards the Qinglong Hall with Mi Xiao and Liu Zhi, followed by the silent envoys of Qin, Chu and Shu.

Xiao Jin followed everyone at the end, and when he was mourning in the main bed, he heard the discussion of everyone outside, and when he came out, he saw that no one from the envoys of the two countries made a sound, so he carefully looked at the backs of the three people who were walking with Xiao Zishuo.

Xiao Jin sighed in her heart, those people are the real masters of this world.

A word determines the life and death of a person, and it is still the life and death of a nobleman who can go abroad as an envoy.

It seems that this world is not fair, but it is also so fair under certain special circumstances.
