Chapter 450: A vassal should have the appearance of a vassal

An Ruoxi saw that Xiao Xiao and Xie Wei were easy to meet, and without saying a word, he took a closed door, and had the intention to create an opportunity for the two of them to be alone, so he took the opportunity to toast to Yang Su and asked: "At the time of merging the state, I often heard the King of Jin mention it, praising the Duke of Qinghe as a great talent that is not born in the world, and the existing matter is unknown. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info" glanced at Xiao Xiao as he spoke.

When An Ruoxi and Xiao Xiao just walked into the study of Yang's mansion, Yang Su recognized at a glance that these two were both women dressed as men, and then looking at the demeanor of the two, An Ruoxi's identity was still above Xiao Xiao, he thought about it for a while, and then remembered that when he first returned to Chang'an, he had heard his wife Zheng Qiye mention it, saying that the queen suspected that King Jin had a beautiful maid who had served the princess of the previous dynasty and still had something to do with the old master. If your guess is correct, the well-mannered woman in front of you is likely to be the maid.

"But I don't know what you call it? Say anything. Yang Su stared at An Ruoxi with both eyes and asked quietly.

"Don't dare, in Xia An Ruoxi." An Ruoxi did not hide his real name, and replied truthfully, "In the past, General Yu and General Changsun were ordered to send an envoy to the Turks, wanting to persuade the Turkic Shabalue Khan to be a vassal to my Great Sui, but the Shabalue Khan was only willing to be friends with my Great Sui, but refused to be a vassal, I don't know what opinion the Qinghe Gong held on this, how can I force the Turks to submit to my Great Sui?" ”

Sure enough, hearing An Ruoxi asking Yang Su for advice on court affairs in person, Xie Yan, who was sitting at the bottom of the house, stood up and asked Yang Su to avoid it. Yang Su looked at An Ruoxi, and then at Xiao Xiao who was sitting next to her, and suddenly seemed to realize something, and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's okay, the two of us are talking about these things thousands of miles away, I'm afraid you don't have much interest, it's better to do this, my mansion was originally designed and built by Yu Wenkai, the prince's left concubine, and there are still a few places in the courtyard that can be seen in the past." It's a pity, you can lead Miss Xiao Xiao to wander around the house at will, thank you for being sarcastic, you can also follow Miss Xiao Xiao to explain a thing or two, so that we don't have to disturb each other, Miss An, what do you see? ”

He revealed the true identity of An Ruoxi and Xiao Xiao's daughters, but An Ruoxi was not surprised, only stood up with Xiao Xiao, and said to Yang Sujie: "The little woman dressed as a man to see Qinghegong, don't blame Qinghegong." ”

"Where, where, you have taken such a lot of trouble to take care of my reputation, and I have to thank the two young ladies." Yang Su hurriedly got up and saluted.

After Xiao Xi led Xiao Xiao and Xie Wei out of the study, Yang Sufang said to An Ruoxi with a smile: "The old man had heard Neizi talk about it before, and Niangniang had ordered Miss An to accompany the mission to the Turks, and it is said that there is a promise to Miss Miss, I don't know if it is true or false?" ”

An Ruoxi saw that Yang Su promised the queen that she would be an envoy to the Turks, and if she could manage to persuade her husband Yuwen Panruo to persuade her husband Sha Boluo to be a vassal to the Great Sui, she would allow Yang Guang to officially marry her and accept her as a concubine, and she no longer deliberately concealed it, nodded and explained to him: "The matter that the little girl asked is also the matter that the prince of my family is confused about, please ask the prince of Qinghe to give advice." ”

As soon as the words were clarified, Yang Su no longer regarded An Ruoxi as an ordinary maid, and frowned and thought seriously about the matter she asked for advice from him in person: he knew in his heart that what An Ruoxi asked was not only related to the safety of the northern border, but also related to a marriage between her and Yang Guang, and he was not allowed to pull it out at will.

As his thoughts shifted, Yang Sufang opened his mouth and asked An Ruoxi, "Does Miss An know about the recent events in Houliang Guozhong?" ”

He obviously asked Yang Su how to force the Turks to submit to the Great Sui, but Yang Su asked him if he knew about the recent events in the Later Liang Kingdom, An Ruoxi was such a smart person, and he couldn't figure out what he meant by asking, so he shook his head and said that he didn't know.

"Since the princess of Jin married the king of Jin, Xiao Yue, the lord of the Later Liang State, Xiao Zong, the prince Xiao Zong and Xiao Yan, the prime minister of the court, have never stopped coming and going between Chang'an and Suizhou, and Xiao Yue was not long after marrying our dynasty, and offered to ask his prince Xiao Zong to live in Chang'an as a hostage of Sui. Miss An must have heard of these things. Yang Su followed the temptation to pull out Anruo Creek Road.

"The little woman did hear the princess talk about these things. Later Liang has been vassalized with my Great Sui since the opening of the Sui Dynasty, and it is also very common for its lords, princes, and important ministers of the court to maintain close contacts with my Great Sui. An Ruoxi replied with confusion.

Yang Su smiled slightly, and then asked: "Then, Miss An, does you know that Princess Jin gave birth to a grandson in the palace some time ago, and Your Majesty was overjoyed, and the edict allowed Houliang to return to Jiangling and remove him from the post of Jiangling governor?" ”

Later Liang was originally in Jiangling, in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, because the Later Liang and the Southern Chen had many secret collusions, the Northern Zhou Xuan Emperor Yu clerk had issued an edict to the Later Liang to move the capital from Jiangling to Suizhou, and sent heavy troops to be stationed in Jiangling, the Later Liang formed a shock, in order to show punishment. Regarding the emperor's edict to return the capital to Jiangling and remove the governor of Jiangling, An Ruoxi heard about it for the first time, so he shook his head at Yang Su.

"Actually, Hou Liang and my Great Sui are the model of the relationship between the vassal state and the suzerain, if it is only a superficial minister, and the monarchs and ministers of the two countries do not interact with each other for old age, what kind of suzerain and vassal can be called?" When Yang Su said this, he refused to say a word more, and he stopped at one point.

"What does Qinghe Gong mean is that we cannot just blindly force the Turks to submit to the Great Sui, but try to close the exchanges between the monarchs and ministers of the two countries, so as to collect the effect of water?" An Ruoxi asked as if she had realized something.

"Come on, come on, please Miss An and the old man toast together, for the new princess of Jin, the emperor Sun beggar!" Yang Su avoided answering, picked up the wine bottle with a smile, and persuaded An Ruoxi to drink.

An Ruoxi accompanied Xiao Xiao, disguised as a man, and went to the Qinghe Mansion to meet Yang Su, and at the same time provided a rare opportunity for Xiao Xiao to show his heart to Xie Wei, although he failed to persuade Xie Xiao to agree to go north and return to Yang Guang's side, but the two were quite satisfied with this trip to the Qinghe Mansion.

In particular, An Ruoxi, on the way back to the Jin Palace, after saying goodbye from the Yang Mansion and returning to the Jin Palace, repeatedly thought about Yang Su's words to pull himself, and a flash of inspiration suddenly appeared in his mind, and he came up with a bold idea that could make it difficult for the queen to shirk the promise of marriage: If he could induce Sha Bolu Khan to go to Chang'an in person to meet the Emperor of the Great Sui, wouldn't it be as Yang Su said that it would undoubtedly show that the Turks had declared themselves to the Great Sui?
