Time flies quickly, and it is almost the time of the Spring Festival, and at this time in previous years, the Hou Mansion has been as busy as ever, and this year is no exception. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Since the beginning of the year, Zhang Lu has been taking a group of subordinates all day long, going in and out, and I don't know what he is busy with, anyway, as long as Zhao Chen is in the house, he can always hear Zhang Lu's voice.

It seems that overnight, people in Chang'an have become busy, busy preparing New Year's goods, busy sprinkling and sweeping the house, this is a traditional festival, as long as it is a Tang Dynasty, it will probably not be despised by the Tang Dynasty.

It's going to be the New Year, and the officials who have been busy for a year, at this time, are also waiting for His Majesty the Emperor to take a holiday, go home with their families, and celebrate the New Year with peace of mind.

Of course, not only the civil and military officials in the court, but also His Majesty the Emperor, also need to relax and have a good New Year, so, as in previous years, a big court meeting will be held when it comes to the New Year.

The significance of the court meeting is to give some benefits to the civil and military officials, and for the New Year, as a civil and military official who has been 'running around and tired' for the Tang Dynasty for a year, this can also be regarded as a reward for His Majesty the Emperor.

Of course, the last meeting at the end of the year is also the plenary report meeting of Datang in the past year, reporting on the various progress made by Datang under the leadership of His Majesty the Emperor in the past year.

In the past year, not only the officials have been busy, but His Majesty the Emperor has also been working hard, so at the end of the year, someone must come to praise His Majesty the Emperor who is wise and martial, which is not too much, right?

It is said that it is a hundred civil and military officials, that is, a hundred civil and military officials, and on weekdays, all officials of the fifth grade or above participate, but at this court meeting, there is no such restriction, and anyone with a grade can send a representative to participate.

Therefore, on the day of the Great Dynasty Meeting, if you stand on the high ground of Chang'an and look into the imperial city, you will be surprised to see that the imperial city is full of traffic and colorful colors.

The purple robe, red robe and green robe are like the flowers, decorating the entire imperial city with a piece of brilliance, of course, there are also some asymmetrical colors and costumes.

As if to support the colorful officials of the Tang Dynasty, groups of three or five appeared everywhere in the imperial city, and these people were naturally the envoys sent by the Tang Dynasty from the surrounding Fanbangs.

Today's Datang, just like the sun and the sky, as dependents, at this time, they naturally spread their legs, hurriedly ran over, hugged Datang's thighs, and hoped to be able to protect under the wings of Datang.

Moreover, with the increase of the influence of the Tang Dynasty, there are many more Fanbang envoys this year than in previous years, and even Donglai Kingdom, which is far south of Lingnan, has sent envoys.

Speaking of Donglaiguo, a few days ago, Zhao Chen also made a joke about it, he heard that this time he came with Donglaiguo, and there was also a daughter country over there.

As an iron fan of the Journey to the West in later generations, when he heard these three words, Zhao Chen was simply stunned, that was the place that made Xuanzang move his heart, so, with a strange mood, he rushed to the post house, wanting to see with his own eyes, the legendary daughter of the country.

However, when Zhao Chen saw that in the post house, those people from the so-called daughter country were all dark-skinned women with big shoulders and round waists that were almost wrapped in animal skins, and he was disappointed that he almost didn't let his chin fall to the ground.

Therefore, fairy tales are all deceitful, this so-called daughter country is actually a tribe in the southern jungle, the tribe pursues a matriarchal society, and the name is not the daughter country, but the east woman country.

However, Zhao Chen was a little seriously skeptical that the so-called name of the East Female Country was the original name of the people!

Looking at these envoys in front of him, they all look dark and rough, probably even their own names are derived from objects that can be seen everywhere in life, can they take out such a poetic name of the country?

It's just that, no matter what, there are a lot more Fanbang envoys coming to Datang this time than before!

Because of this, His Majesty the Great Tang Emperor, in order to take care of the envoys of Fanbang like Dongnuguo, can see the face of heaven, specially discussed with the people of the Ministry of Rites, and allowed the female envoys to also participate in the court meeting.

Such a ****, Zhao Chen is not clear about those envoys of the East Female Kingdom, but Zhao Chen can guess that a **** like Li Er, let Gardenia hear it, and he may be stupid!

In Chang'an on a winter morning, there is still a hint of cold air in the air, but at this time, the imperial city is already crowded with people, and the noise is not endless, among which there are gardenias and his party.

From Liaohai, the fleet that followed Zhao Chen, almost arrived in Chang'an, which arrived with the front and back feet, and it had been a few months, but unfortunately, whether it was her or the envoys she brought, they all had the opportunity to meet the emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

The same people as her, of course, and Yuangai Suwen, who arrived in Chang'an with her, and for some reason, since Yuangai Suwen entered Chang'an, he asked the Ministry of Rites several times, hoping to see the Tang Emperor, but unfortunately, this request was repeatedly refused.

It wasn't until a few days ago that the people from the Ministry of Rites informed him that during the Great Dynasty Meeting, their Goguryeo envoys could enter the Taiji Hall and meet His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty together with other Fanbang envoys.

At this time, there was still a period of time before the palace gate was opened, Yuangai Suwen was standing in a corner of the imperial city, his eyebrows were slightly wrinkled, and he looked coldly at Gardenia who was constantly shuttling through the crowd, and waited until Gardenia came back in a circle, then he looked at Gardenia and asked, "Are you not tired?" ”

Yuangai Suwen really found it a little difficult to understand the woman in front of her, she was also the princess of the Wa Kingdom, but in front of these Tang officials, this woman did not have the consciousness of the princess at all, accompanied by a smile on her face, almost cheeky, talking to those high-ranking Tang officials.

"Is Lord Su Wen tired?" Hearing Yuangai Suwen's words, Gardenia, who had just come back from a circle, suddenly smiled at Yuangai Suwen, looked at Yuangai Suwen and asked rhetorically.

"You think I'm a little cheap, don't you?" Seeing that Yuangai Suwen was silent and too lazy to speak, Gardenia suddenly chuckled, looked at the Tang officials in the imperial city, and said without looking back: "Don't hold your identity, this is not Goguryeo, these officials of the Tang Dynasty may not buy this account!" ”

"Lao Cheng, what do you think?" At this time, when Gardenia and Yuangai Suwen were talking in a whisper, several veterans standing over there were also observing this side, and seeing Gardenia returning to Yuangai Suwen's side, Li Daozong suddenly smiled, and said to Cheng Yanjin without looking back.

"What do you think?" Cheng Yanjin, who was on the side, heard Li Daozong's words, and immediately turned his head, frowned slightly, looked at Li Daozong and asked with some puzzlement.

"Let's see how big the waves they make!" Cheng Biting Jin's words fell, Li Daozong had not yet spoken, but Li Ji on the side had already heard the meaning of Li Daozong's words, glanced at the gardenia over there with contempt, and said with a sinister smile.

"But to be honest, the old man is actually a little bit looking forward to it!" As soon as these words fell, Li Ji rolled his hands in his sleeve robe again, and said with a yearning expression: "It seems that no one has participated in this kid in front of him for a long time!" ”

"If you like it, the old man will take you a copy when he turns around!" It's just that as soon as Li Ji's words fell, Lao Qin, who was originally silent on the side, suddenly turned his head at this time, looked at Li Ji with cold eyes, and replied in a cold tone.

"It's just a joke, so why take it seriously?" As soon as Lao Qin's words came out, the corners of Li Ji's mouth twitched vigorously, and just now he had an expression that was not a big deal, and in the blink of an eye, he looked embarrassed, and explained embarrassedly to Lao Qin with a cold face.

"But, then again, seeing that the palace gate is open, why don't you see this kid's face yet?" Jokes are jokes, Li Ji's words fell, his eyes glanced at the gate of the imperial city, frowned slightly, and said to himself.

"Isn't that there!" As if he heard Li Ji's chatter, just when Li Ji's words fell, at the gate that was still empty just now, he suddenly saw a carriage slowly driving in, and the swarthy young man driving was none other than the familiar wooden hill.

At this time, it was not far from the time when the palace gate was opened, and the people who came to participate in the great court meeting had already arrived, so when Zhao Chen's carriage slowly drove into the imperial city, it attracted almost everyone's attention.

"This kid, the old man thought that he hadn't been in court for a long time, and he had forgotten about today's court meeting!" Finally saw Zhao Chen coming, Cheng Yanjin, who had not spoken, also looked at the carriage that drove in at this time and grinned with a big mouth, and smiled heartily.

It's just that the smile on Cheng Yanjin's face didn't last long, and when Zhao Chen's carriage stopped, Zhao Chen, who was wrapped in gauze on his head and holding a cane under his ribs, got off the carriage with a weak face, almost everyone's mouths were opening up a little bit.

"It's... What's going on? Among all the people present, probably only Lao Qin was the most concerned about Zhao Chen, as soon as he saw Zhao Chen's appearance, Lao Qin's face suddenly changed, and he hurriedly rushed forward, looked at Zhao Chen and asked in surprise.

And as Lao Qin stepped forward, several veterans behind him also came to their senses, rushed to Zhao Chen with a roar, and looked Zhao Chen up and down, with a look of surprise and inexplicability.

"Alas, it's a long story!" Seeing the veterans rushing forward one by one, the corners of Zhao Chen's mouth couldn't help twitching fiercely, and then, he glanced at Yuangai Suwen over there casually, looked at the veterans seriously and said: "The kid has been raised in the palace since he was injured in Goguryeo, and after a few months, this injured body still hasn't improved!" ”

"Cut, this kid is begging to fight!"

"Boy, hateful!"

"I'm angry old man!"

“……”

Zhao Chen came back from Goguryeo, how long has it been, and they have met many times during this period, not to mention that Zhao Chen was seriously injured, but his scalp was not scratched.

Therefore, as soon as Zhao Chen's words came out, the veterans who had just rushed up because of their eagerness suddenly shook their robe sleeves at Zhao Chen, turned around and scolded and left.

“… I'm not here to show you! Looking at the veterans in a daze, throwing off his sleeves and leaving, Zhao Chen couldn't help but open his mouth, lowered his voice and muttered to the backs of the veterans. (To be continued.) )
