Chapter 65: Persistence

Jingtai's recent complexion is very good, the national teacher saw it in his eyes, his heart was very relieved, and he praised it in his ventriloquism: "You can relax your mind, it is beyond my expectations, very good." "On the eve of the 39th anniversary, Yan Palace was engulfed in fire again, and Jingtai was furious at that time, but he returned to normal in the next day, and he didn't even need to be persuaded by others, and then he didn't see anything abnormal, such an abnormal change, even the national teacher didn't expect it.

"I wanted to open it that night, for a few bricks and tiles, it's not worth my anger." Jingtai looked relaxed and took a sip of the medicinal tea. Since the serious illness, Emperor Yan has to avoid wine and tea, but he grew up drinking tea, whether it is white water or other drinks do not quench his thirst, the current medicinal tea is specially prepared by the national teacher, and there is no tea but the taste is no different from the good fragrant tea, and has the effect of nourishing the body and nourishing the spirit, drinking this medicinal tea every day, now Jingtai can also have three women in a month.

Jingtai tasted the taste of medicinal tea, smiled, and knew that this was not real tea, so he couldn't help but taste it carefully, trying to find out the difference: "The first time the palace was burned, in addition to being angry and distressed, the great palace, the place of Lingrui, is also the place where I grew up... But after rebuilding," Jingtai shook his head: "It's tasteless." The new is not as good as the old, there is no spiritual surname, no matter how awkward it looks, there are a few times when I wish I burned it myself. ”

The national teacher's face that was rotting at any time also showed a smile, he liked to chat with Jingtai like this, calm and quiet, and the topic was dispensable.

The mask blocked, Jingtai couldn't see the smile of the national teacher, and continued: "This time there is no distress, the surname is naturally much smaller, and then I have figured out one thing, damn people can't live, the difference is only whether I kill crying or laughing... Laugh and kill better. ”

The national teacher really wants to laugh, there are not many things in this world that are worthy of his real happiness, since he experienced that life and death when he was a teenager, and then came back, there are two good moods like now: one is to suddenly learn that he actually has a son in the world; The other is that his son ascended the throne and became the emperor of Yan.

Today is the third time, and my son seems to have grown up.

Unconsciously, Yan Dingzhen laughed, which caused a sharp pain in his throat, but Jingtai was a little puzzled, he couldn't understand the mood of the national teacher, and he didn't feel that he had figured out a truth, and he would be worthy of the other party's happiness, so he smiled and asked: "Why are you happy?" ”

The national teacher shook his head and didn't answer directly, but just smiled in ventriloquism: "It's a pity that Hua Xiaofei went back, otherwise I would have invited him to drink." ”

When it came to Hua Xiaofei, Jingtai showed some interest: "You told me before that he wanted to concentrate on opening a door, how is it going now?" ”

The national teacher did not hide it: "I have finally found some clues, and the opening of the door is not far away." ”

"What the hell is behind the door?" This question was asked by Jingtai when he was a child, but the national teacher always said, "You will know when the time comes" to deal with the past. But this time, the national teacher's answer has changed a little: "I don't know what exactly is hidden behind the door...... But for sure, what is behind the door can help you dominate the world! ”

Then the national teacher mentioned another thing, and there was still a smile in his tone: "Not long after, I will leave for a while, the period of the reincarnation of the spirit child of Tubo Bojie, when there will be a grand ** meeting, Bojie secretly invited me to the meeting." After a pause, Yan Ding was afraid that Jingtai would not fully understand, and added: "It's a secret letter invitation." Bo Jie sent a total of two invitations to Yan, one in the light and one in the dark. In the bright place, I won't go, I still stay in Dayan, and Lei Yintai will send a representative to the plateau to attend the meeting, and I ...... secretly."

Before he finished speaking, Jingtai was already overjoyed: "...... say so?"

His expression was abrupt, but the national teacher knew why he was happy, and nodded happily: "Yes, all these years of hard work and things in the west are about to come to an end!" ”

Rong Jingtai laughed for a while, and the national teacher continued: "When I am not there, you don't have to worry about the Great Thunder Sound Terrace and Sumeru Zen Temple, I have arranged them properly, and I will never be like last time." In addition, I want to discuss something with you, I have killed enough people recently, so let's stop for a while. ”

Jingtai didn't like the new palace, so he wasn't too angry, but just because he wasn't angry didn't mean he didn't kill people...... The palace was burned, the Yan Dynasty could not find the real culprit but arrested a large number of suspects, and then there were officials on duty, such as the officials in charge of the garrison in the city, and the secret agents who listened to the voices of the people to find the thieves, etc., from the time the palace caught fire, more than half a year has passed now, and people have been executed by Ling Chi every day.

Hearing that he would not be allowed to kill again, Jingtai's disappointment was beyond words, and he was not very happy.

Seeing this, the national teacher smiled and said: "Then let's kill some more, stop it after seven days, it's okay." ”

Jingtai will obey the orders of the national teacher, not to mention that the national teacher relaxed the 'price code' and allowed him to kill for another seven days, Jingtai nodded and agreed, and then remembered one more thing: "What about the celebration over there in the Uighurs?" Who should I send? ”

…… During the 39th anniversary of Jingtai, the enthronement ceremony of the young emperor Fuyuan of Nanli, the situation was very similar, the living Buddha of Tubo held the 77 Festival, and the Uighurs also held a more solemn celebration at about the same time.

Song Yang only knew about the Tibetan Daqing, but did not know about the Uighur celebrations, so he misunderstood the purpose of Lord Hu's visit to the fiefdom.

Master Hu shook his head and smiled: "The reincarnation of the Great Living Buddha is a matter for their Buddhist disciples, and it has nothing to do with national politics, so there is no need for the imperial court to send a mission, not to mention, even if you send someone to Tubo to watch the ceremony, you can't come to discuss with you, the Marquis of Changchun is busy, if it has to be important, I don't dare to disturb you...... In the matter of the Uighurs, your brother Samer Khan ascended the throne and received the celebration of the Great Khan from the sacred fire. ”

Unlike the Han and plateaus, the Uighur kings were both divine and monarchical, and the Uighur kings of all generations had two titles, one was the true envoy of the sacred fire, and the other was the monarch of the country. After the old Uighur Great Khan last year, Samer Khan took over the power, but due to the law of filial piety, he only inherited the throne of the Holy Fire Envoy first, and now the old Khan's spiritual period has expired, and he can prepare to ascend the throne only when he is 'out of the East'... In fact, it is also a passing scene, from the name to the real 'out of the East' has been called the king, but this ceremony is still essential.

This was a major matter of the first order of the state, and purely in terms of the form of government, the celebration of the Uighurs was more important than that of the Tibetans, and all the countries of Middle-earth would send missions to congratulate them, and Nanli would not slack off.

Lord Hu's meaning is also the result of the discussion of the auxiliary ministers, and he invited Chang Chunhou to come on this trip.

The reason is so simple that there is no need to talk about it at all, Song Yang is the best candidate, there is no room for resignation, and Song Yang does not want to resign. Moreover, the gifts that Chenghe prepared for Samer Khan were basically in order, and he had planned to ask the Uighur guards to escort him back.

Prime Minister Zuo asked again: "Do you think I need to go with you?" ”

Song Yang shook his head and smiled, and returned the ridicule that the old man gave him just now: "Prime Minister Zuo is busy, and countless political affairs in the country still depend on your old man. ”

Master Hu laughed: "To tell the truth, from Nanli to Tubo, thousands of mountains and rivers have gone all the way, just with my old bones, I really feel a little worried in my heart, the Hou Ye is sympathetic to the old minister, grateful, I really care." ”

The long distance is one thing, and the other is that the little emperor is far from the time when he is in power, several auxiliary ministers have a radish and a pit, each with an important position, and it doesn't hurt to leave the capital for ten days and a half months, and no one can stand it if he runs out for half a year at once.

"Lord Qiu, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, will walk with you, and the mission to the international is originally an errand of the Ministry of Rites, and Lao Qiu has a heavy responsibility for this trip......" As he spoke, the old man began to touch with a smile: "Her Royal Highness the Princess, why didn't you see her?" ”

Her Royal Highness the Princess was receiving another guest of honor, Murong Xiaowan.

After the death of Murong Boss, Xiao Wan took Daddy's position and became the first person in the Phoenix gambling brand, with her temper and brains, she would never have been able to run such a big business, but Xiao Wan had a meritorious role in quelling the rebellion, and her family was also in trouble, from the imperial court to the feudal city, how could she not help her, there were Zhenxi kings and big bosses in Beijing to support her, and the Murong family not only did not decline, but became more prosperous.

With the help of a strong backstage and a big force, Xiao Wan sat firmly in Daddy's seat, she didn't have to worry about anything, and tried her best to track down the whereabouts of the enemy, but no matter how much she investigated, it was in vain, half a month ago, she listened to Xiao Yu's persuasion, temporarily relaxed, and came to Fengyi to find her best sister, and at the moment she was being taken by Xiao Yu, going to the edge of the mountain to see the two fools training birds of prey.

Lord Hu didn't find the princess, and he didn't need anyone else to explain anything, so he continued the previous topic: "The auspicious date for the peace between the two countries has been decided, and it will be next spring, February 19. The armillary sphere supervisor has been calculating over and over again, and it is really good luck! When Lord Qiu visited the Uighurs, he should also inform the Uighurs of good news and ask for their opinions. ”

It is said to be a consultation, but it is actually a notice. This marriage between the two countries was Nanli's own marriage, and all matters such as auspiciousness, etiquette, and celebrations were also decided by Nanli, so that the Uighurs did not have to worry about it.

"When you returned from the Uighurs, it was probably the time of the lunar month, and the time was very calm. Also, two months after the first marriage, on April 16, the second great joy came. As he spoke, the old man glanced at Cheng He with a smile.

Ren Churong's cheeks were hot, and he didn't dare to say a word, let alone look at Lord Hu, lowered his head and pretended not to hear anything. Fortunately, Master Hu did not ask her a question, "What is the county's idea?" but said back to the visit, and said to Song Yang: "The journey to the Uighurs has been decided, from the Zhiqiao Pass, all the way north through Dayan, and then from Yanyun to the Uighurs, and then turn west to the Uighurs......

Before he finished speaking, Song Yang frowned: "Far away, right?" Why don't you go out of Kushui and go all the way north from Tibet to the Uighurs? ”

Master Hu showed disdain: "Bo Jiexi is the Holy Lord of Tibet, and he is so stingy that people laugh at him, if not, why would we be willing to go far." ”

The five countries of China and Turkey are full of contradictions, but their faces are still hanging on each other, and after the mission enters the country, the passing country will arrange reception, accommodation and other matters along the way. At the beginning, the itinerary designed by the Ministry of Rites was the same as Song Yang's idea, but after sending the credentials to Tubo and asking for approval of the itinerary, it was quickly rejected and returned.

The reason for the refusal was very polite, the July Seven Festival was approaching, the flow of believers in the country was intensive, the national strength of the Tibetan was limited and it was difficult to protect the dignity of the envoys, etc., but anyone could understand what was going on, the Uighurs and the Tibetans held two grand events at the same time, and there was a great taste of 'doing it against the other', and Nanli sent a delegation across the border to congratulate the Uighurs, and the Great Living Buddha was not happy.

On the contrary, the envoy of the auspicious land of Miao Xiang reported to Tubo the request for entry, and the Great Living Buddha agreed with great pleasure...... In desperation, the Ministry of Rites changed the itinerary, but Yan Guo and Dog Rong were very happy and agreed to Nanli's request.

"The Yan people hate you to the core, but when you visit with the mission, they can only stare dryly, not only will they not deliberately make things difficult, but they also have to protect them with all their might... If my embassy is destroyed in Dayan, this kind of thing is too ugly and lowly, and it will lose the hearts of the people, and Jingtai will not dare to do it no matter how mixed it is. But Master Hu then changed the conversation again: "However, I think you should be easy to tolerate, the mission can't hide it, but it's not difficult to hide your identity, just be an ordinary official or guard on the way, and let Lao Qiu be in command on the surface, so that nothing goes wrong." ”

Song Yang didn't care if he went to Yan Country to kill people and set fire, not to mention that he was just passing by this time, and Song Yang didn't plan to be reckless, he thought it was good, the simplest, if he didn't attract attention, maybe there would be a chance to do something bad. After the matter was decided, Lord Hu added that the Uighur mission had been assembled in Phoenix City and stood by, from the envoys and officials to the accompanying escorts, all of them were trustworthy people, and there was no need to worry about revealing the identity of the Marquis of Ivan but wait.

At dinner, Song Yang invited all the important people in the feudal yi to the Hou Mansion, and soon there were many people in the feudal city, all of whom were Fu Dang, Gu Jia and Xie Men's lackeys to contact Yan Guo's companions, preparing to respond and take care of them along the way, while Ren Churong led people to be busy and prepared gifts for the East.

There are still countless things in the fiefdom, and the county lord naturally can't go with Song Yang, as for Xiao Yu, the peace between the two countries has not yet arrived, and she just ran to the Uighurs with the Marquis of Changchun... This kind of thing is not good to say, it really damages Nan Li's face, the princess can't wait to stick to Song Yang from the bottom of her heart, but she knows the general situation, and she doesn't mention the requirements of her peers at all, so she takes Xiao Jiu with her and silently dresses up for Song Yang.

What Song Yang didn't expect was that after dinner, everyone dispersed to be busy, and after a while, Luo Guan returned to the Hou Mansion to find Song Yang.

The visit is going to come and go from Yan Kingdom, but Song Yang really didn't think about causing trouble again, and when he comes back, he should be married, at least this time, Song Yang is reluctant to let Xiao Yu and Chu Rong worry anymore, and his heart is also steady, and he will talk about everything after he gets married. But Luo Guan was unmoved by Song Yang's refusal, and he must accompany the team. His attitude was resolute, and Song Yang nodded and agreed, anyway, now there are officers and troops stationed everywhere in the fiefdom, and the guards are strict in checking and checking, even if the national teacher is in person, he will not be able to get benefits, and the nobles in the Hou Mansion are safe.

As soon as Luo Guan left, the porcelain doll came to visit again, and she did not enter the house as before, but stood at the door and asked softly, "I would like to go to the Uighurs to see... Okay? ”

Xie Zimiao really wanted to go. Song Yang didn't know that Prime Minister Fu had visited the Uighurs back then, and he couldn't count how many times he had told Xiao Xie Zimiao about the customs, interesting and strange things there, and even promised her that if he had the opportunity to go to the Uighurs again, he would definitely take her with him...... The trip to the Uighurs, the things that Master Fu had promised, and Xie Zimiao's wishes.

Song Yang shook his head apologetically: "If it weren't for the way to Dayan, I would definitely take you there." "At least now that I think about it, there won't be too much danger in this trip, but Song Yang can't afford and doesn't want to take this responsibility, so he pulled the 'Yan Country Danger' as a shield.

"Oh." Xie Zimiao's expression did not change much, but the light in his eyes dimmed slightly, and he said calmly: "You pay attention to safety." Have a nice trip. ”

The porcelain doll wanted to turn around and leave, but she stopped again just now, and there was some hesitation in her tone: "Actually... If the Tibetan delegation is allowed to pass, I will not be able to go to the Uighurs. My body can't go up to the plateau. ”

After speaking, Xie Zimiao raised her head and looked at Song Yang for a moment, and then lowered her eyes to block her gaze, but she was still standing in place, waiting for his reply.

The porcelain doll held her hands behind her back, unconsciously clenched her fists, a little nervous, and already in a somewhat unfamiliar mood. Since the death of two pairs of parents one after another, following Mr. Silk...... She makes a request, and if she is answered, she is not happy; She would not be disappointed if she was rebuffed, nodded and turned away, never insisting.

Only this time, she tentatively persevered.

I really want to go.
