Chapter 451: The Greeting of the Dragon Son and Phoenix Grandson
"Good dogs don't get in the way, get out of the way!"
"Why does the fourth uncle want to hurt people? Today, you and I have come to greet the mission and the King of Northern Yan and Jin, this is the emperor's order! ”
"What you and me? It's me and you! I'm an elder, you're a junior, I'm the king, you're just the prince of King Jia, who is the master and who is the deputy, you figure it out! Don't think that you can turn the sky upside down with a few words of praise from your father these days, you are still very early! ”
I heard the two nobles in front of me arguing with each other, and the guards who followed behind were eager to cover their ears, for fear of hearing something they shouldn't hear. However, finding that the two of them were really in an endless stance, one of the guards still helplessly took a few steps forward and reminded him in a low voice.
"His Royal Highness the King of England, Prince Jia, if you are not faster, I am afraid that you will not be able to catch up with the people! When the time comes, the emperor will blame ......"
As soon as these words came out, they sneered at each other along the way, and the uncle and nephew who were open and secretly stopped talking together. Li Yiming's eyes flashed with fierce light, and he suddenly shook the reins, whipped the horse on the stock fiercely, and galloped out like a lightning speed. Li Chongming was slightly stunned before he realized that it was not good, and while hurriedly beating his horse to chase after him, he couldn't help but think of the letter his father had just sent the day before yesterday.
In his letters, his father repeatedly complained about the barrenness of the fiefdom and the disrespect of the officials, and hinted that he would please the emperor and strive to make him return to the rich and noble town of Jinling as soon as possible. Although he knew that such a family letter would probably have to be subject to heavy scrutiny, so the content could not be too explicit, but he knew that this was probably his father's only extravagant hope.
The father, who has never been pleasing to the emperor, has never thought about the possibility of becoming a great treasure!
And he found out from the few contacts with the emperor in the past few months that even for Li Yiming, the so-called only son, the emperor is not really conniving and favoritism everywhere, and the most important thing is that Li Yiming is not the prince yet!
Thinking of Yue Qianqiu, who went to Beiyan despite the danger, and actually caused countless turmoil in a foreign country, and thinking of the controversy between the DPRK and China in recent days, Li Chongming glanced at the people on both sides of the street waiting to see the excitement, and he was a little envious of this Yue Jiu Gongzi whose background is still unknown and there are many rumors.
In any case, Yue Qianqiu can be adopted by an elder like the old lady Yue who is not related by blood but is better than relatives, and can have an imperial princess like the eldest princess of Dongyang who loves the house and Wuduo to take care of him, and can gather so many peers, compared to him who seems to be noble, but in fact he is like a wanderer, he is really too happy!
When Li Yiming immediately threw off the large army and arrived at the city gate first, he just heard Xiao Jingxian's voice of Jinling. Although he couldn't see anyone, when he heard such a voice, he only felt that he seemed to outline the image of a young man who was as elegant as a fairy in front of him. When he thought that such a person would be his teacher in the future, he couldn't help but feel hot in his heart.
He didn't care whether the bosses in the court were kind or malicious to Xiao Jingxian, accepted or rejected, he only knew that this former Lanling Demon King was a very capable person, and such a person to teach him was far better than those old masters!
He didn't think at all that he was not a prince now, even if Xiao Jingxian really became a prince and a prince, it had nothing to do with him.
Seeing the crowd of people in front of him, blocked by water, the little fat man had an idea and shouted: "Li Yiming, the prince of the Great Wu Emperor, has been ordered to welcome His Royal Highness the King of Jin into Jinling!" ”
As soon as his shouting words fell, and he was smug about his cleverness, a voice came from behind: "Li Chongming, the son of King Jia, is ordered to welcome His Royal Highness the King of Jin." I hope that His Royal Highness King Jin can like Jinling and live and work here in peace and contentment in the future! ”
Even though there were many people in front of them, they heard two dragon sons and phoenix grandchildren coming from behind, and the soldiers and civilians quickly made way for a passage. It's just that seeing the leading British King Li Yiming with a gloomy face, he ignores any scrutiny, while Li Chongming, the son of King Jia in the rear, is smiling and smiling at them frequently, people's perceptions are naturally different.
When the two finally came to the front, Li Yiming put away the stinky face that he showed because he heard Li Chongming Dong Shi Xiaofeng shouting after him, and he also pretended to be smart and added a sentence. After all, the teenagers in the Xuandao Hall and the Wuying Hall around him were all the targets of his efforts, and they couldn't be completely ignored like ordinary people.
He squeezed out a smile and greeted a few acquaintances, and was about to say something more, but he heard a voice from behind him, turned his head to look, and saw that Li Chongming had already jumped off the horse neatly, and was talking to everyone. At this moment, his smile was immediately gone, replaced by an almost irrepressible anger.
Since Li Chongming arrived in Jinling, he has been against him everywhere, he is really fed up!
However, when the little fat man saw the young man in the kudzu robe who was looking at him with interest with one hand on Yue Qianqiu's shoulder, he immediately lost the trace of anger that had just been born.
He took a deep breath, and then said to Li Chongming in a tone that was completely different from his previous attitude: "Chongming, His Royal Highness the King of Jin is waiting for us, we are already late, do you still want him to wait?" All of you from the Xuandao Hall and the Wuying Pavilion, it is not too late to continue to speak when we have picked up His Royal Highness the King of Jin, Lord Yan and Qianqiu. ”
Of course, Li Chongming saw Xiao Jingxian. Because the court is now boiling with discussions, and he is not a legitimate prince like the little fat man, he has reservations about this king of Northern Yan and Jin in his heart, but he will not show half a point on his face. At this time, on the one hand, he was close to the teenagers of the Xuandao Hall and the Wuying Pavilion, and on the other hand, he also wanted Li Yiming, who was in a hurry, to contact people first.
In this way, he may be able to get a good impression in front of conservative officials in the DPRK and China who oppose the admission of Xiao Jingxian, such as Pei Xu's party.
As for Zhao Qingya and Old Lady Yue, who rarely had a unified opinion this time, he did not leave a snub impression. After all, this time it was Li Yiming who was the main one. If he hadn't deliberately provoked Li Yiming to get angry on the street just now, and let the people of Jinling see what kind of virtue this prince was, he would have stayed behind this "fourth uncle" honestly all the time.
However, as soon as Li Yiming opened his mouth, Li Chongming knew that his wishful thinking had come to naught. He could only reluctantly agree, and when he saw Li Yiming also jumping off the horse, he walked calmly and slowly towards Xiao Jingxian, without the irritable and irritable posture before, his miscalculation and frustration were even stronger. What he didn't expect was that Yue Qianqiu actually said hello first.
"Yo, Ying Xiaopang, I haven't seen you for a long time, why are you round and jade again?"
Li Yiming's full momentum just now, as well as the deliberate calmness, were all washed away by the nickname of Yue Qianqiu. But before he could sneer at him, he saw Yue Qianqiu directly drag Xiao Jingxian over.
"His Royal Highness the King of Jin, I would like to introduce you to the two nobles of Dawu, this is His Royal Highness the King of England, and this is the prince of King Jia."
Yue Qianqiu was serious at this time, without the slightest joke when he had just made fun of Li Yiming, and then smiled at Li Yiming and Li Chongming: "Oh, this is the famous Lanling Demon King of Northern Yan in the past, and the King of Jin who was just crowned this year, now he dislikes that the one-third of an acre of land in Northern Yan is too small to accommodate him as a great Bodhisattva, so I came to my Great Wu." ”
These last few sentences introducing Xiao Jingxian's words once again brought out a strong Yue style, however, Li Yiming only felt that Yue Qianqiu's words had successfully shortened the distance between them, and immediately greeted him warmly: "His Royal Highness the King of Jin has come to Jinling thousands of miles away, and my father has been looking forward to it since he learned about it, even the officials and people in Jinling City are also very curious, and I am not exempt from vulgarity." ”
The little fat man really looked at Xiao Jingxian's clothes while talking, and then quipped: "I didn't expect His Royal Highness King Jin to like the style of such mountain hermits." ”
Just now, the uncle and nephew were looking at Xiao Jingxian, why wasn't Xiao Jingxian observing the two? From Bazhou to Jinling, all the way is a thoroughfare, he walked for a whole month and a half, after the old lady Yue and the eldest princess of Dongyang behind Yan Xu secretly dispatched, all kinds of precious medicinal materials continue to be sent over, even if his injuries have not healed, it is not difficult to recover his ears and eyes.
And just after saying such a sentence with great force, he adhered to the principle of being strong to the end, and even listened to the little confrontation between the little fat man and Li Chongming. Therefore, at this time, seeing that the little fat man was polite at first, and then he joked with him very boldly, and he couldn't help but have a new understanding of this prince of Dawu, who was very average in Beiyan.
is irritable and impulsive, but he can also restrain himself, quite a city, and a little shrewd and calculating...... Of course, it is far from enough to put these in the tiger and wolf den of Northern Yan, but in a place like Southern Wu, where the official system is strict, and the system and officials can even restrict the imperial power to some extent, it is obviously enough for the next emperor.
The premise is that this little fat man is really the only candidate in the East Palace.
Xiao Jing first glanced at the prince of Jiawang behind Li Yiming who was trying to restrain his sense of existence with a somewhat playful gaze, and then said with a smile: "I just arrived, I don't understand the etiquette of the south, and I was in too much of a hurry when I came out of Beiyan, and almost all the clothes were lost over there, and all the clothes on this body were all added after I arrived in the south. It turns out that this one is called a hermit suit? ”
If it weren't for the fact that he had already gotten the information that Xiao Jingxian was ever-changing, the little fat man would still think that Xiao Jingxian was really a dirt bun, and he didn't even know the standard hermit clothes like Ge Pao Mangshoe. He coughed a little stiffly, and then said with a dry smile: "Although it is a hermit suit, His Royal Highness the King of Jin wears it on his body, but it has a unique style." A person with a good character wears a dignified appearance. ”
"That's right, His Royal Highness King Jin doesn't just look like something."
Yue Qianqiu teased casually, and then rolled his eyes. He still remembers the experience of being watched by people in the Daimyo's Mansion, and he didn't want to continue to pestle at the gate of this city at this time, so Li Chongming just smiled and said hello at the beginning, and at this time he didn't come up to grab the conversation with the little fat man, so he simply didn't ask the opinion of this prince of Jiawang.
"Ying Xiaopang, are the polite words almost there? You either sit in the car and talk slowly, or you can ride into the city together. Time is precious, Jinling City, a place where merchants from the north and south gather, the city gate is sealed for an hour, and thousands of dollars will be lost. ”
Li Yiming wanted to rebuke this deviant reason, but seeing Xiao Jingxian's dumb smile, he immediately changed his mind and smiled happily: "Okay, just listen to Qianqiu." I entered the city with His Royal Highness the King of Jin, and rolled up the curtain for the people of Jinling to see! ”
He had already been optimistic about it, such a small carriage was definitely only enough for him and Xiao Jingxian to sit on, and Li Chongming had no share!
