Chapter 161: The Great Wedding (I)

In the carriage, Ji Miao was obviously a little excited. After traveling thousands of miles, you can only be stuffy in a carriage and can't show your head, and no one can be happy. It's winter now, and the scenery outside the car window is either a dry yellow, or it's icy and snowy, and no matter how beautiful the scenery is, it's a little tired to see all the way.

Unlike Ji Miao, the maid Xiaohe is still a little free, so she rarely maintains the excitement all the way. Seeing that his master was a little tired, Xiaohe lifted the thick curtain of the car window and exclaimed, "Princess, there are so many people outside!" ”

"Xiaohe, don't make trouble! On such a cold day, where did the people come from! Ji Miao said lazily.

It's November soon, and there was a light snow yesterday, presumably at this moment, Jicheng is drifting with goose feather snow! I have been going thousands of miles, and I don't know when and what month I can return to Jicheng again!

"Princess, I don't lie to you. There are really a lot of people out there! The maid said with some annoyance.

"Alright, alright, if I find you teasing me again, I'll drive you back to Jicheng!" Ji Miao waved her pink fist and threatened.

But when Ji Miao came to the window, she was stunned by the scene that greeted her eyes. What a scene! Hundreds of people were working in the fields of the first melting of ice and snow. Some level the land, some demolish and build houses, and some build channels. Even some of the children joined in, not to mention the sturdy women.

Isn't this the time for farming? Isn't South Korea implementing the Ida system? How did you tear down all the houses in the fields? Ji Miao asked puzzled.

"Xiaohe, go find the eldest man!" After thinking for a moment, Ji Miao still commanded. I'm about to become the queen of South Korea, and it's really unusual here, so I have to inquire about it.

When the maid Xiaohe heard this, she immediately got out of the car to find the eldest husband Ju Xin who escorted the princess Ji Miao to get married. After the Jicheng Incident. Ju Xin became a powerful man second only to Prime Minister Jiangqu. Originally, according to King Yan's intentions, he should have sent Jiangqu to escort his only royal sister to get married. But King Yan has not been on the throne for a long time, and he has just gotten married, and the state affairs depend on the assistance of Jiangqu. In desperation, King Yan could only send Ju Xin to escort him all the way. More than 2,000 guards marched all the way from Jicheng, and now it has been more than a month.

Soon. Ji Miao saw several Yan soldiers riding horses in front of the group of working people. Because of the distance, Ji Miao couldn't hear their conversation clearly. But judging by the expressions and body movements of both sides, it should be the common people who are explaining to the Yan army why they "demolished" the well field.

Suddenly, Ji Miao found that the common people raised their hands and shouted something to the villagers behind them. The common people who had been working actually put down their work and gathered together. Then, they made a move that surprised Ji Miao - they all knelt in their direction and kowtowed three times in a row. Then he picked up his work again under the persuasion of Yan Jun.

After a while, the voice of the eldest husband Ju Xin sounded outside the carriage. "Princess, King Han has implemented a new law. The common people in the fields are repairing and leveling the land according to the requirements of the new law! ”

"New law?" Ji Miao muttered in her heart and asked curiously, "Then why did they kneel to me just now?" ”

The eldest husband smiled and explained: "Princess, now the whole Xinzheng knows the news that you are going to marry King Han. The Korean people are grateful for the kindness of King Han, and they are naturally grateful to you. If it weren't for the soldiers who explained that the princess was inconvenient to meet people, they would all want to thank the princess personally! ”

Ji Miao was stunned when she heard this. What kind of new law can be supported by the people, although there are all kinds of doubts in my heart. But Ji Miao still pretended to be calm and replied: "I see! There is a husband of Lao. ”

"Don't dare, don't dare! The minister retired first! Ji Xin replied.

In a moment, Yan Guo's convoy finally slowly drove into Xinzheng City. Forced by etiquette, Ji Miao could only let her maid secretly open the curtains, revealing a gap, so as to look at this city where she would live for a long time in the future. But even so. There were still all kinds of lively cheers outside.

"Princess, listen, the people of Xinzheng welcome you!" The maid Xiaohe exclaimed excitedly.

Ji Miao was ashamed when she heard this, and said with a smile: "It's just to join in the fun!" Aren't we the people of Jicheng the same? When Brother Wang and Princess Zhao got married, Jicheng was also very lively! ”

"That's different! Princess, you don't see. There are red lanterns and banners hanging along the streets! The king didn't have this treatment when he got married, hehe. The maid Xiaohe retorted.

"Really?" Ji Miao said in disbelief, and was going to see it. Xiaohe lowered the thick curtain and said, "Princess, when did the slave deceive you." You still don't want to look out, it's always bad to be seen. ”

Ji Miao pursed her lips and complained: "There are so many rules!" ”

Xiaohe said with a smile: "It's good for the princess to bear with it, tomorrow is going to get married, and you will be free after the wedding." ”

"I hope so!" Ji Miao sighed.

In the palace of King Han, the queen mother is tirelessly directing the attendants to decorate the palace.

"Over here, the lantern over here is hanging!"

"Here, get this case out of the way. yes, move over there. Slow down, slow down. ”

Han Wangran looked at the busy Queen Mother, and said helplessly: "Queen Mother, just leave this kind of thing to the attendants to do, what should you do if your old man doesn't have a good rest and is tired?" ”

The Queen Mother smiled disapprovingly and said, "Where do they know this!" I don't worry, tomorrow is the day of your wedding, but you must not go on a business trip. ”

"The queen mother can rest assured, Wang Taichang's side has been arranged. Yan Guo's car has also entered Xinzheng City. Queen Mother, don't you know, these days, Wang Taichang has been chattering here all day long, all kinds of ritual processes, if I can't remember clearly, will he let his sons go? ”

"Tomorrow, the envoys of Yan, Zhao, Wei, Qi, Qin, Chu and Zhou Tianzi are all watching! Is the king really ready? ”

Han Wangran nodded and said: "At that time, Su Li, the envoy of Zhou Tianzi, will be at the head, and the next will be Ju Xin of Yan State, Lin Xiangru of Zhao State, Wei Wuji of Wei State, and Tian Dan of Qi State, Wang Jian of Qin State, and Huang Xie of Chu State on the other side. ”

The Queen Mother shook her head and said with a smile: "The king was busy just now, and he didn't know yet." Chen Dianke just reported to me that the envoys of the Qin State had been replaced. ”

"Substitution?" Han Wangran said in surprise.

For Wang Qian, Han Wangran is very clear. At present, this little-known young general will destroy the ruthless people of Zhao, Yan, Chu, Qi, and Wei with his son in the future. I wanted to take the opportunity to win over one or two, but I didn't expect that the envoys of the Qin State would be replaced.

This time, the five kingdoms of Yan, Zhao, Wei, Qi, and Chu either sent high positions such as prime ministers and Shangqing, or they were smash hit favorites. Only the state of Qin sent an "official doctor" to congratulate him. However, it is understandable to think about South Korea's "heavy blow" to Qin in the past two years.

"Queen Mother, who is the new envoy?"

The Queen Mother smiled, "It's the Zong Zheng Yingsi of the Qin State!" ”

"Yingsi?" Han Wangran was very surprised. As one of the most famous nobles in the Qin State, Han Wangran knew that Yingsi was born in the ranks and was one of the few nobles who relied on his own ability to ascend to the throne. There must be a shadow of Qin State behind the rebellion that happened in Xinzheng ten days ago, and Qin State actually dared to come to "congratulate" with great fanfare, Han Wangran suddenly felt that there was some conspiracy in it.

But it turned out that since he was a guest, let alone his wedding day. Han Wangran, who knew which was more important, would naturally not blatantly embarrass the envoys of the Qin State, but they should still be "monitored and protected" in an all-round way.

The Queen Mother didn't know what Han Wangran was thinking in her heart, and thought that Han Wangran was happy that the Qin State had sent such a grand battle. After all, even Zhou Tianzi sent an envoy to congratulate him, and Qin only sent a small official doctor, how could it be like slapping South Korea in the face. Now it's good, and all the countries send important ministers to attend the wedding of their kings. South Korea's prestige is a big boost to the world!

"Your Majesty, although the Qin State has lost troops one after another, it is the first-class power in this troubled world after all! It's best if we in South Korea don't conflict with Qin! This time Yingsi came to our Xinzheng, and the king couldn't lose his courtesy. The Queen Mother explained earnestly.

The Queen Mother knew very well that after taking Sanchuan County and Nanyang County, South Korea could be regarded as offending the Qin State severely, otherwise the Qin State would not have sent only a small official doctor to congratulate her. Although she didn't know why King Qin suddenly changed her mind, the Queen Mother sensitively felt that this was an opportunity to ease the relationship between Qin and Han.

Han Wangran knew the depth of it, and said solemnly: "Don't worry, the queen mother, the son is provincial." ”

After saying some more homely words, Han Wangran hurriedly said goodbye and left, leaving the elated Queen Mother to continue to arrange the palace.

In the Dianke Mansion, Chen Xiao had just sent away Tian Dan of Qi State. This time, in the newlywed hall of King Han, King Qi, who has always been stingy, actually gave a generous gift of 5,000 catties of gold, 100 pairs of white bi, and five boxes of jewelry. Just now, Tian Dan, the prime minister of Qi State, was even more approachable, and even flattered. Listening to his words, the good-neighborliness and friendship between the Qi State and the Sanjin Dynasty is a historical tradition, and he hopes that the five countries of Shandong can continue to be peaceful. As for the state of Chu, it is a barbarian country that does not obey the king, so don't talk about it.

Prior to this, Huang Xie, the envoy of Chu, repeatedly emphasized that Qin was a country of tigers and wolves, hoping to fight Qin together with Han, Zhao, Wei, and Yan. You must know that in the context of the alliance with the Chu State, the Qin State dared to impose trumped-up charges on the Chu State, and then attacked the Yingdu and burned the Yiling Tomb. Chu said that the great enmity with Qin was no longer in common, and as long as Han, Zhao, Wei, and Yan could send troops westward, Chu would also attack Bashu in the west to show support.

The most worthy of consideration is the envoy of the Qin State - Zong Zheng Yingsi. He did not talk about the conquest and melee between the two countries in the past year, but only talked about the congratulations of the King of Qin on the wedding of the King of Han; Don't talk about South Korea's occupation of Wuguan and the threat of Guannai, only talk about the rich changes in Xinzheng. In this regard, Chen Xiao talked and laughed on the surface, but in fact, he was deeply jealous in his heart. (To be continued......)
