Chapter Twenty-Four: Good Performance
Looking at this posture, even if those envoys were a little resentful in their hearts, where did they dare to say anything, they stopped in fear and entered the table under the leadership of the palace maids.
Di Jiushu sat on the seat that had been arranged, and looked back and nodded with Ji Yunxiao.
Ji Yun smiled and nodded, beckoned to his father-in-law on the side, and walked to the table.
The candlelight gathered, and everyone's eyes were on her dim figure on the table.
The messenger who was guarding the wooden box had just seen the other party's face clearly, and his expression couldn't help but move, this person he remembered was the person who stopped him with the Nine Princes just now.
can stand with the Nine Princes, he is the first, I don't know what the identity of this person is!
He suddenly had an ominous premonition, and his arms tightened, secretly protecting what he was holding.
The corners of Ji Yunxiao's mouth hooked, and a sneer swept away from the envoy's hand: "Delay the envoys to hurry, the slave is here to apologize for everyone first!" I also hope that the minions' next tricks will surprise the envoys. ”
The father-in-law next to him hurriedly put the tray in his hand on the table, Ji Yunxiao lifted the red cloth covered with one hand, and unabashedly revealed the thing in the eyes of everyone present, and everyone's eyes moved.
She smiled slowly: "Everyone must have seen the Shuangfeng Chaohuang Cup, but everyone doesn't know that there is a magical place in this cup...... It can fly. ”
"Poof...... The envoys in the front row couldn't help laughing, with a hint of mockery on their faces, "This cup is exquisite and ingenious, but a cup is a cup, and it doesn't have wings, how can it fly?" ”
In addition to this hour, even the queen and several princes present were a little stunned. The cup can fly, no matter how you look at it, it sounds quite suspicious of teasing the envoy. From a small point of view, losing the face of the royal family is a small matter, if it hits the other party's self-esteem, this is a major matter between the two countries!
The queen held the armrests of the chair tightly with both hands, and regretted it in her heart! She knew it was such a joke, and it was impossible to agree to let a little minion preside over the overall situation! Well, when the envoys leave, she must cure the sins of this arrogant slave!
The queen was so eager to look at her immediately, Ji Yunxiao couldn't feel it.
She glanced at it, and in the corner, she saw Di Jiushu holding a cup of tea lightly, his eyes were clear, like an outsider, he really looked like a simple play, but this play has not aroused much interest in him yet.
Ji Yunxiao was not afraid of danger, his cunning eyes showed a touch of irony, and replied to the questioning envoy: "Please don't worry, this cup does not have wings, but the minions will disappear after a while, and then let it come back, I don't know if this is one of the wonders of the cup?" ”
"Joke, everyone is watching, how can you change this dead thing out of thin air!" Everyone seemed to have heard of it, and immediately burst into laughter.
In the face of everyone's questioning ridicule, Ji Yunxiao's face was calm, "If the minions can really change things away, won't the ministers bother with the minions?" ”
"Good! If you really have this ability, we will not care about what happened just now! However, if you deliberately fool, don't say that we are going to find trouble with your little minion, I'm afraid the Nine Princes won't let you go easily! That man's eyes moved towards Emperor Jiushu, he didn't forget, today it was this prince who solved his riddle, and condescendingly used his power to force them to return!
Under the faint moonlight, Di Jiushu flicked his sleeves, sat upright, and raised his eyes coldly: "Yeyun smiles, let's start." ”
"Yes!" Ji Yunxiao picked up the cup and tray and reversed it left and right in the air, "Everyone, please see, the tray and cup are real, there is no mechanism!" ”
After confirming it for everyone, he put the red cloth back on the cup, his hands trembled in the air, and he silently recited a long series of mantras in his mouth.
"Go!" As soon as the word fell, she quickly lifted the red cloth.
An amazing scene has appeared!
I saw that the gorgeous cup on the tray just now disappeared out of thin air!
Everyone was shocked, leaned forward and took a closer look, and it had indeed disappeared, and it had disappeared without a trace!
"This ......," the messenger who had just questioned first opened his mouth wide!
In fact, in addition to the envoys, even the queen and several princes were stunned!
Di Jiushu's fingers tapping on the corner of the table paused in mid-air, and his gaze collided in the air with Ji Yunxiao's gaze.
A smile swam in her eyes, shining like a star.
"I have already changed the cup to you here just now, and now I only need to walk in front of that person to find the cup, but I also ask him to cooperate with the queen's arrangement today and take out the things himself." As she spoke, she had already jumped down and walked up to one of the envoys.
The man shuddered, and a layer of cold sweat gradually oozed from his forehead.
She smiled slightly, "The minion has already put things into your box of the envoy, and please open your box and confirm it for everyone." ”
"You...... What nonsense are you talking about! There's no cup in there! The man suddenly exploded, jumped up from the chair, tightly protected the wooden box on his chest, and took a few steps back, vigilantly guarding Ji Yunxiao.
"The hand of the envoy has never been put into the wooden box, how can you be sure that there is no cup in it, why don't you open it to the public, let everyone see whether the slave's trick just now has succeeded, and lest it be said that the queen mother's final arrangement of this scene is deliberately delaying the envoys of your country, so as to cause unnecessary disputes between the two countries." Ji Yun smiled coldly in his heart.
"It's funny, you are a minion, do you think that just a few words from you, this envoy will follow your instructions?"
The minion spoke softly, but the envoy shirked left and right, and was reluctant to open it, isn't it...... There's something unsavory in this, isn't there? ”
"You dare to slander this envoy!" The man raised an eyebrow!
"Minions are just ......"
"This king's discipline is not effective, and it is the king's negligence to harass the messenger." Ji Yunxiao wanted to say something, but suddenly his shoulders sank, and Di Jiushu stood up from behind, "However, since it is a trick, why not open the wooden box for everyone to see, if the envoy has anything inconvenient, for the sake of justice, the envoy can call out a person from among you at will, reach in and probe, and see if there is really a cup in it." If there is, then this trick can be regarded as an eye-opener for everyone, if not, it is that this slave is not skilled, deliberately ignoring everyone, so that this king has a punishment of the original, and after bringing it back tonight, he will be on strict vigilance, so that he can teach him a long lesson! What did the messenger think? ”
Like him, Emperor Jiushu never disdained to put anyone in his eyes, but now he stood up and spoke for a little minion.
In the words, he also gave salutes everywhere, so that the princes recalled the superb trick just now, and they were also shocked by his move!
For the sake of this unknown minion, this cold king actually stood up twice in one day to give this cheap. Slave relief!
The prince secretly shook his hand in his sleeves, this unrecognizable slave could provoke the ninth brother to care so much, heh! It's time for him to send someone to investigate!
"This ......" The Nine Princes spoke, and the envoy's momentum suddenly lost a lot, and cold sweat broke out in his palms, coiling left and right.
"Did the messenger not believe the king's words?" Di Jiushu raised his voice, missing the humility just now, and his eyes were grinning like knives, which made people feel cold!
An eye-catching messenger next to him immediately stood up, this Nine Princes was born to act on his own and act independently, they can't afford to offend this person.
hurriedly said: "Where did the Nine Princes say, the prince is majestic, and we can't respect it." Instead, he called, "Amu, don't open the wooden box for everyone to see!" ”
"My lord, this ......" The man named Amu looked embarrassed.
The envoy who looked like he was one level higher frowned and ordered impatiently, "Don't open it yet!" ”
"This ...... Be! The envoy had no choice but to open the wooden box in public.
At the moment when the wooden box was opened, everyone fell out of sight again!
Everyone's eyes were locked on the treasure cup in the wooden box, and they were amazed for a long time.
"In this world, there is really such a subtle and magical trick, which really opens the eyes of the ministers!" The envoy at a higher level of power held the treasure cup in both hands and handed it to the queen, "The queen's mother is good, and when you return to China, you will carefully return to the king the good treatment of your country!" ”
"The envoy doesn't blame the palace for delaying the trip." This result was also extremely unexpected by the queen, but after all, the baby was brought back! With a smile, he couldn't help but glance in the direction of Ji Yunxiao. Although this person is dressed as a servant, he always gives her a feeling of being extraordinary, and I hope ...... It's a delusion! Emperor Jiu has only two powers, if there is such a capable person to help, the emperor's future power will probably become difficult.
"It's getting late, and the ministers have to hurry first." The envoy looked at the sky, it is indeed not early, and if he does not rush to the riverside, I am afraid that the trip will really be delayed, and when the time comes, the king will condemn him, I am afraid that they will not be able to afford it!
"Okay, the palace won't be forced to stay, the ninth prince, you can send the envoys over."
"Wait for the resignation!" The envoys resigned.
When Emperor Jiushu turned her head, Ji Yunxiao was smiling with half a smile, the moonlight sprinkled on her face, and there was a trace of feminine femininity in her innocence.
Emperor Jiushu's eyes shrank, retracted his gaze, and ordered: "Yeyun Xiao, you are with this king." ”
"Yes!" Although Ji Yunxiao had doubts, who called him the prince, or her current nominal master!
As soon as they came out, the horses were ready, and the group turned over and got on their horses, and rushed towards the river!
The night breeze is silent, and the river is as flat as a mirror.
Tonight's moon is exceptionally mellow, and the sight of people is a little hazy when it is spread out on the river.
