Chapter 17: Going to the Feast

Yang Lian didn't rush to speak, but glanced at Miss Fu with a gaze full of surprise, and couldn't guess what this woman was thinking.

Miss Fu lowered her head and said, "Young Master Yang, don't you want to?" ”

Yang Lian groaned slightly, turned his head, looked at Miss Fu, and said, "If you are like this, will he agree?" ”

Miss Fu sighed faintly and shook her head slightly. She seemed to have prepared for Yang Lian's words, so she was not particularly surprised, but said: "What can you do if you don't agree, things have reached this point, and they are irreparable." ”

Yang Lian nodded, this is true, but he also didn't expect Miss Fu to admit it so readily, which also proves that her words are true and credible. Yang Lian thought for a while and said, "Since Miss Fu has made a decision, I will find a way to do this." ”

Miss Fu bowed slightly, saluted, and said, "So, thank you Young Master Yang." ”

Yang Lian frowned and said, "I need to plan this matter carefully, Miss Fu, please wait with peace of mind." ”

While the two were talking, an official from Honglu Temple walked over, arched his hand towards Yang Lian, gave a salute, and said, "Yang Envoy, this is a letter from the Son of Heaven. ”

Yang Lian nodded and took it, thanked him, opened the letter, and then handed the letter to Miss Fu, "This is the invitation of the Son of Heaven, the wedding of the Li and Fu families is scheduled for Chinese New Year's Eve, he invited me and Lin Renzhao and others to attend, Miss Fu, will you go?" ”

Miss Fu's expression changed, she seemed to hesitate, and then she nodded and said, "She is getting married, so she has to take a look." ”

This period of time is long and short, Yang Lian went to the brothel to see Zeng Yiling once, and most of the rest of the time stayed in Honglu Temple, and Miss Fu could hardly see Yang Lian. I don't know what Yang Lian is tossing.

It was Chinese New Year's Eve, and in the evening, Yang Lian was wearing a new dress, and Lin Renzhao also changed into a new dress, and went to the imperial city to attend the wedding banquet with Yang Lian.

Miss Fu was slightly dressed, with eyebrows, dressed in men's clothes, with a purple head on her head and a beard on her chin, dressed as a man. If you weren't a familiar person, you wouldn't have seen that she was originally a woman. The three of them walked out of the Honglu Temple, there was already a carriage waiting at the door, and the two horsemen were waiting quietly, and when they saw the three of them walking out, they were a little confused.

Yang Lian helped Miss Fu into the carriage first, and was about to get into a carriage with Lin Renzhao, when he saw Miss Fu looking at him with a pair of shining eyes, looking at herself with a smile. Yang Lian smiled faintly. I stepped into the carriage.

On the other side, Lin Renzhao also got into the carriage, and the horseman waved his horsewhip and rushed towards the imperial city under the escort of several guards.

Miss Fu's bright eyes looked a little worried. Yang Lian stretched out his hand, grabbed her pair of soft breasts, and said, "Don't worry, they won't recognize you." ”

Miss Fu shook her body slightly when she heard this. His eyes lowered and he said, "You still know." ”

"I've guessed it for a long time, but I've never been sure. Now, I'm pretty sure. Yang Lian shook her soft hair hard and said, "Tonight is not only Chinese New Year's Eve, but also the day when the Li and Fu families get married. ”

Miss Fu nodded, but she was still a little worried, and said, "Although it is a major event for the Han Kingdom for the two families to become in-laws, I always feel that it is a little inappropriate to hold it today. ”

"You don't have to worry about it." Yang Lian comforted her.

As she spoke, the carriage was already running quickly along the bluestone road, and Miss Fu suddenly found that her little hand was being held in the palm of Yang Lian's palm, and she couldn't help but blush, and hurriedly pulled out her little hand, and the carriage fell into a short silence.

Yang Lian's mood was a little complicated, on the one hand, he already knew Miss Fu's true identity, and he also had a good impression of Miss Fu, but it was her identity that made Yang Lian have some scruples. And Miss Fu has never had a skin-to-skin blind date with a man, and her face couldn't help but turn red, and for a while, she didn't know what to do.

After half a pillar of incense, the carriage arrived outside the palace, Yang Lian got out of the carriage first, and quietly helped Miss Fu get out of the carriage, and then looked at the palace. On Chinese New Year's Eve, the palace is dressed like a bride to be married, especially beautiful, with lanterns hanging everywhere, and the red candles inside are burning brightly, illuminating the surroundings like day, even in winter, it does not feel cold, but makes people feel hot.

Liu Xin, the king of Cai, stood at the door, greeting the courtiers, saw Yang Lian get out of the carriage, walked over with a smile on his face, and said, "Ah, isn't this Yang Messenger?" I haven't seen you for a few days, don't come unharmed? ”

Yang Lian smiled slightly, although he didn't know much about Liu Xin, he also knew that Liu Xin was holding his breath, seeing him come up to say hello diligently, he couldn't help but be secretly vigilant in his heart, there must be a demon when something goes wrong, and there is a ghost in Liu Xinxin!

Liu Xin saw that Yang Lian just smiled, but didn't speak, and felt a little embarrassed, but he quickly forgot about the embarrassment, smiled, and said, "Envoy Yang, the imperial brother has been waiting for a long time, please!" ”

Yang Lian walked forward, and Lin Renzhao and Miss Fu also walked forward behind him. Liu Xin casually glanced at Lin Renzhao and Miss Fu, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, the more people, the better.

At the moment, Liu Xin led the way in front, and the three of them walked behind, and the further they went, the more gorgeous the layout of the palace became, and there was a faint bit of the atmosphere of Xiaojinling. Yang Lian whispered a few words to Lin Renzhao, asking him to be more vigilant. As for Miss Fu, Yang Lian asked her to follow her and never leave.

After walking for half a pillar of incense, Liu Xincai stopped at a large hall in the backyard of the palace, which was already crowded with people, the important ministers of the Han Kingdom, and most of the festival envoys from all parties gathered here.

In the past few days, the Jiedu envoys from all over the country rushed to Kaifeng to report on their work, and reported the situation in the past year -- in fact, it was only half a year, and most of the news was not good, especially the Jiedu envoys in the Central Plains and Hebei, who were so troubled by the Khitans, the people's livelihood withered, and the people were miserable.

The envoys from all over the country said that they were here to report on their work, but in fact, most of them came to report their hardships, and they asked Liu Zhiyuan for money and food, which made Liu Zhiyuan miserable.

Yang Lian does not know many ministers of the Han Kingdom, counting the crown prince Liu Chengxun, Cai Wang Liu Xin, and only a few people such as Yang Jue, Fu Yanqing, Du Chongwei, Gao family father and son, but Yang Lian's identity is known to the monarchs and ministers of the Han State, and many people see Yang Lian coming, whispering, the envoy of the Tang Dynasty is coming, it doesn't seem to be a good sign.

Yang Lian glanced at everyone and didn't care, after all, as the envoy of the Tang Dynasty, it is certain that he is in the limelight, if he cares about them, Yang Lian will not have to mix. Glancing coldly at everyone, Yang Lian, under the leadership of Liu Xin, walked towards the position.

As soon as Yang Lian sat down, he saw a tall man walking over, and the person who came walked up to Yang Lian and said with a smile: "Envoy Yang, in Xia Guowei, I want to talk to Envoy Yang about something." ”

Yang Lian said lightly: "I don't know what happened to Guo Jiedu?" ”

Guo Wei glanced left and right, looked very vigilant, and said, "Envoy Yang, take a step to speak." ”

Yang Lian shook his head and said, "You are Han, I am Tang, you might as well say anything directly, there is no need to hide it." ”

Guo Wei's face turned red, in Yang Lian's opinion, it was a little abnormal, I saw him cough twice, thought about it, and said: "That's the case, the dog Guo Rong saw Ling Mei a few days ago, and he has been thinking about it, and he is very lovesick." The old man has inquired, Ling Mei has not yet married, if the Yang envoy agrees, the old man will ask for the dog, and the two countries can also be good for Qin and Jin. ”

When Yang Lian heard this, he couldn't help but glance at Miss Fu, the Ling Mei in Guo Wei's mouth must be referring to Miss Fu, but he didn't know where he got the news?

Miss Fu was taken aback, her face turned red, she hurriedly covered her face with her hand, coughed lightly, and her beautiful eyes glanced at Yang Lian, shook her head again and again, indicating that she could not.

Yang Lian was a little dissatisfied, this dissatisfaction was aimed at Guo Wei and Guo Rong, not to mention that he would definitely be an enemy in the future, just saying that Guo Rong was very dissatisfied with Yang Lian's careful thinking, and besides, Miss Fu was not Yang Lian or anything, Yang Lian could not decide her fate. Of course, after Miss Fu decided to choose to follow Yang Lian, Yang Lian's choice was different.

Yang Lian laughed, Guo Wei saw Yang Lian smiling so happily, he couldn't help but feel worried, Yang Lian's smile didn't seem right.

Yang Lian glanced at Miss Fu and said quietly: "Guo Jiedu, I don't know where your news came from?" ”

Guo Wei's old face flushed, he couldn't say that it was Guo Rong's request, but he also wondered, how beautiful that woman looked to make Guo Rong so anxious? In Guo Wei's impression, Guo Rong is not a person who is in a hurry, but he just said that he fell in love with this woman at first sight, and he had to ask Guo Wei to help him decide this family business, and even Mrs. Chai was blowing the pillow wind, which made Guo Wei a little overwhelmed.

Yang Lian saw that Guo Wei didn't speak, and said with a smile: "I am a Tang person, and Guo Jiedu is a Han person. ”

Yang Lian's refusal made Guo Wei's face turn pale for a while, and suddenly he thought of something and walked away.

Miss Fu breathed a sigh of relief, slowly approached Yang Lian, and said in a low voice, "Thank you Young Master Yang." ”

"Now that you have made your choice, I will naturally do my best, but, I'm afraid Guo Wei won't give up easily." Yang Lian said.

Miss Fu was a little surprised and said, "Why, he still refuses to give up?" ”

"To be precise, Guo Rong will not give up, he heard the monk's words that day, so he will never forget, this Guo Rong is really a scheming and ambitious person." Yang Lian said with a smile.

Miss Fu nodded, what Yang Lian said was very reasonable, Guo Rong came to Honglu Temple a few times and talked to her a few times, Miss Fu naturally would not expose her true identity, so she lied that she was Yang Lian's cousin. Guo Rong didn't know the true details of Miss Fu, so he naturally believed it.

Yang Lian stretched out his hand, gently held her hand, and said, "Don't worry, if you don't like it, I will never agree." ”

Miss Fu nodded with some complexity in her heart, Yang Lian was a little unclear about her, and she didn't know what would happen in the future?

Yang Lian thought for a while and said in a low voice: "As soon as the matter is over, I will immediately negotiate with the Han people and return to Jinling, but, do you really not regret it?" ”

Miss Fu shook her head firmly and said, "No regrets!" ”

"So do you want to talk to him? I can give you a chance. Yang Lian said again.

Miss Fu lowered her head, bit her lip, thought about it, and said, "I'll think about it again, this matter is not in a hurry." (To be continued.) )
