Chapter Eighty-Three: Exchange
"Mother, are you alright?" Zixing put the fruit tea on the table and looked at Lin Yaxin and asked cautiously.
"It's nothing, the emperor is gone?" Lin Yaxin's voice could not hear the slightest fluctuation.
Zixing was silent for a moment and comforted her: "The emperor must have a hard time, don't take it to heart." You don't know that the emperor is good to you. ”
"I know. I just know why my heart still hurts. Lin Yaxin picked up the fruit tea on the table and took a sip, "It's sweet and sour, it's really similar to the current mood of this palace." ”
He accompanies his own sweetness, and he takes other people's hands away from the sourness.
"Niangniang......" Zixing was about to say something, but was interrupted by Lin Yaxin.
"You don't have to persuade me, I know it in my heart. Let's go out and do things, I want to be alone and quiet. ”
"Yes."
Although she was still very worried about her, Zixing knew that there were some things that others couldn't help her, so she could only figure it out by herself.
In the next few days, Li Yiqian rested at Lan Yu. Some people in the palace heard that Lan Yu had taken the emperor away from Lin Yaxin, and they sneered in their hearts, in the end, it was still interesting to compete between the new favorite and the old love. Soon, a new wave of rumors spread in the palace. Xin Zhaoyi's mood during pregnancy was changeable and irritable, which caused the emperor's dislike, and the fall from grace was a foregone conclusion, and the blue beauty won the sacred heart. The concubines of various palaces also had different opinions on this.
Liu Yuyang thinks that this is an inevitable result, although Lan Yu's background is not high, she is younger than Lin Yaxin. In addition, Lin Yaxin is now pregnant and can't serve her cousin, and her mood is a little irritable, so she is naturally not as good as Lan Yu to please her cousin. Therefore, it is an inevitable trend to be able to defeat Blue Rain, if she loses, it will be easy if she wants to do something when it comes to production. She kept thinking about it in her heart.
After Zhao Qinyue knew about this, in addition to gloating, she was angry. Of course, she likes to see Lin Yaxin fall out of favor, but for this person who replaces her, she can't wait to kill him quickly. What qualifications does that lowly person have to share a man with himself!
After Wang Jinyun heard the news, she just raised her eyebrows and continued to make her own purse, but looking at the actions under her hands, she knew that this matter was not without impact on her. She was still a little worried about Lin Yaxin's situation in her heart, but presumably so many people would be fine. Besides, she can't interfere too much in the affairs of Xin'er and Li Yiqian, otherwise it will just make people disgusted.
Hearing the palace people tell them about the rumors outside, Lan Yu's heart was very proud, and these words were very right to her. After Li Yiqian's "ecstasy soup" in the past few days, she knew that Xin Zhaoyi was just a pregnant old woman, not her opponent at all, not as young as herself, not as understanding as herself, and her temper was still poor, so she couldn't pose a threat to herself at all.
——————
Originally, a reception banquet should have been arranged in the palace on the second day after the Lan envoy group entered Huajing, but the people of Lan Guo said that their imperial brother was unwell and fell ill after coming to Huaguo, so the people of the Ministry of Rites naturally canceled this reception banquet.
Of course, the envoys of the Lan Kingdom would refuse, because their imperial brother was still in Li Yiqian's hands, and they had to rescue the imperial brother before some of the occasions he had to attend arrived.
At this time, in the Qiangong, Li Yiqian sat on the main seat, and in the position of his hand, there was a person dressed in the uniform of the envoy of the Lan Kingdom. They were communicating the real purpose of the people from Languo coming to Huaguo this time.
The people of Languo politely begged Li Yiqian to release him and detain the imperial brother of other countries in the country, this is not to provoke a war. For the sake of peace between the two countries, it is better to let people go, and they can treat it as if this incident has not happened. Otherwise, it will be difficult for them to explain when they return home.
And Li Yiqian's attitude is a little unkind, he only has one meaning, your country's imperial brother is an official in my country, isn't this an obvious meticulous work? I didn't ask you for an explanation about this matter, and it was enough to give your emperor face. In short, whether people can go back with you depends on what price you are willing to pay.
The envoys of Lan Guo were reluctant at first, because Li Yiqian's request would definitely damage the interests of Lan Guo, but seeing that Li Yiqian's attitude was very resolute, they could only agree. But he also said that his request should not be too much, otherwise he would rather solve the matter in other ways.
Since he was sent to envoy to other countries, this person naturally knew what his emperor's bottom line was on this matter, after all, on the surface, this matter was indeed the fault of Lan Guo, so some necessary concessions were still needed. As long as Li Yiqian's conditions are not excessive, this matter is actually very easy to handle.
Li Yiqian had talked to Gongsun Ce about this issue the day before they arrived, and he roughly understood the bottom line that Gongsun You might give, he had already calculated what he wanted, and waited for the envoy of Languo to relax.
Therefore, Li Yiqian first put forward a relatively excessive condition, and after the envoy of Lan Guo said that it was impossible to do it, he reluctantly made concessions and put forward his real conditions. Although the envoy of the Lan Kingdom knew that this was a ploy used by Li Yiqian, he had to agree.
First, from the bright side, Li Yiqian has already made concessions, and if he doesn't agree, he will be a little ignorant. Second, the conditions he put forward later were all within the scope allowed by his own emperor, so he could call the shots.
In this way, the first confrontation in the secret of this grand gathering of the three countries ended, and the result was quite satisfactory to both sides. No matter what the secret deal is, whether it succeeds or not, on the surface, the two countries still make an absolutely friendly face, showing the demeanor of the two great powers.
And not long after the end of this secret meeting, Gongsun Ce was let back, Li Yiqian was not worried at all that Lan Guo would break his promise because he had no hostages, because the two sides had already made a document, if Lan Guo did not send the corresponding things as they said, then Li Yiqian was not afraid of tearing his face with them.
After all, in today's world, ordinary people in any country or anyone else are revitalizing their promises, and those who break promises will be ridiculed by everyone who knows about it. I believe that Gongsun You will not lose the respect of the people of the world for such a thing, you must know that his ambition is to unify the three kingdoms.
The day after Gongsun Ce returned, the imperial brother of Lan Guo was in good health. But there are also rumors through the grapevine that Gongsun Ce is not unwell, but he is more curious when he came to China for the first time, so he left the team and traveled without permission, and has only come back so far.
No matter what happened on Lan's side, not two days after Gongsun Ce's body recovered, the envoy of the Eagle Kingdom finally arrived in Huajing.
Not long after dawn on this day, Lin Yaxin woke up Li Yiqian, who was asleep next to him, and he promised to take him out of the palace to see the excitement today!
"Dry, wake up! It's dawn! Lin Yaxin shouted excitedly to Li Yiqian. The thought of being able to leave the palace filled her with energy. Since the last time she left the palace because of her eldest brother's affairs, Li Yiqian stopped taking her out on the grounds of pregnancy, and she was almost suffocated to death in the palace all day.
In fact, Li Yiqian had already woken up when she had just moved, and not opening her eyes at this time was just trying to tease her, it had not been so easy for a long time. In the past few days, he has been busy with the affairs of Lan Guo and Gongsun Ce, and he has to dispel Lan Yu's suspicions, he feels a little physically and mentally exhausted, and he can finally relax with her.
"Hmm~ Is it dawn? Xin'er, you have a good rest, I'll deal with court affairs first. Li Yiqian rubbed his eyes and said seriously.
"Hey! How can you do that?! Said okay, take me out of the palace to play today, you don't talk about credit! Hearing that today's travel plan was going to be in vain, Lin Yaxin was very excited to blame Li Yiqian. Last time, Lan Yu took him away from him, and he tried to endure it for a long time before he was angry, but this time he actually forgot to take himself out of the palace, Lin Yaxin was almost angry.
Thinking about it, Lin Yaxin felt that her eyes were a little hot, and tears wanted to overflow her eyes unconsciously. Li Yiqian saw that her joke made her almost cry, and hurriedly admitted her mistake: "I'm sorry Xin'er, I was wrong." I haven't forgotten about it, and I'll never tease you like that next time. Don't cry. ”
Hearing him say this, Lin Yaxin also came to his senses, and he promised himself that he would never forget it. But she turned her head to the side and refused to speak to him. What she thinks is that she must let him have a long memory this time, otherwise she will always find her own happiness in the future.
Seeing that although she didn't cry, she still ignored herself, Li Yiqian had a headache and didn't know how to coax Lin Yaxin. He would never do such a thing as coaxing people before he met Lin Yaxin, and no one dared to let him coax him. It's just that the woman in front of me who pouted like a little angry bag is different, and she is as happy as she is.
"If you ignore me again, I really won't leave the palace, there are really things to deal with in the Qiangong." There was no way, Li Yiqian could only threaten her with this.
"Humph! You're going to bully me! I have to say that Li Yiqian took the point that Lin Yaxin valued the most, so she still succumbed to his obscenity.
"By the way, let's bring Sister Yun with us this time. I think she hasn't been out of the palace for a long time, and she and her eldest brother have been wronged for so long, and in the end, it's all for us. Lin Yaxin suddenly thought that she had thought that she would call Wang Jinyun next time she left the palace, otherwise she would be suffocating in the palace and everyone would get sick.
"Okay, it's up to you." Li Yiqian smiled dotingly.
He took care of himself first, and then went out and asked Mama Lu to come in and clean up for Lin Yaxin. After that, he asked Mu Xiu to go to Zhuxue Palace to bring a message to Wang Jinyun and asked her to go to the Qiangong Palace to serve later.
Except for Wang Jinyun's matter, which Lin Yaxin temporarily came up with, he had arranged everything else before he came to Yuquan Palace last night. Since he had said that he would take Lin Yaxin out of the palace to play, how could he not arrange the affairs of Yiyi? These days, she is indeed stuffy in the palace, and it is not bad to go out for a walk.
