Xiao Jingyan hadn't found a place to hide yet, but the emperor's edict arrived first, ordering him to cooperate with King Jing to welcome the envoys of the Northern Jin Dynasty and be responsible for accompanying the whole process.

"Now do you dare to say that the county lord of Xiyue is not here for you?" Old Marquis Xiao snorted coldly, he had already asked him to take precautions, he refused, and now that the people have arrived at the post station outside Kyoto, they will enter the city tomorrow, and it is too late for his son to run.

"You can rest assured that your son will not embarrass the Xiao family, even if he becomes a monk, his son will not give in easily." Xiao Jingyan swore that he really made up his mind, and if he couldn't do it, he would be a monk for two years first, and then he would deceive the county lord and then return the vulgar!

"If you think about it, you go to be a monk, have you ever thought about what will happen to your mother?" Old Marquis Xiao hated to slap this son who only knew how to blindly escape, why couldn't he puff up his chest and be more responsible like his brothers.

"What do you think I'm going to do?" This can't be done, that's not allowed, are you still looking forward to your son being arrested?

"Do a good job of the emperor's explanation first, if the county lord is really here for you, she should inform you before making a request to the emperor, and then you will make the Xiao family's position and your resolute refusal not to go to the Northern Jin Dynasty clear, and see what the county lord's reaction is."

"Yes, my son understands." When it was rare for the father and son to have such unity of thought, Xiao Jingyan locked himself in the room and summarized the meaning of his family and his own ideas, and determined the plan he should adopt, that is, he was neither humble nor arrogant, polite and thoughtful, and kept an appropriate distance from Lord Xiyue. Of course, it is good that she doesn't ask for anything, once she mentions family affairs, she doesn't go to the Northern Jin Dynasty, which is an insurmountable bottom line.

If the emperor has to match this marriage or make a decree to give marriage, he will ask King Jing to give him a wind in advance and find a temple to hide for two years, yes, it was decided.

"Fourth uncle, are you there? Can I come in? Xiao Yao's soft voice sounded outside the door.

"Come in!" Xiao Jingyan, who had just cleared his thoughts, instantly turned back into a suave son, with a calm face, as if the person with a frown just now was not him at all.

"Do you have something to hide from me, tell me and help your niece analyze it." Xiao Yao, who had long felt that the atmosphere at home was not right, thought about it, only the fourth uncle had the best breakthrough, so he came.

"Didn't you refuse to accede to my request? Then it's better to see that death is not saved, and tomorrow there will be an accident, and you only remember today what is the use of asking me? ”

"Is there something really going on, can I help? Declare in advance that I will not be involved in matters related to King Jing's son. ”

"As for it? Do you have any deep hatreds? "King Jing Shizi will not deliberately bully the little girl if he has no taste, does he like the little niece to be annoyed and angry when she is rejected...... Xiao Jingyan tried hard to imagine the scene of a boy confessing to a little girl who was not much taller than the table, it was too terrifying, too incredible, the prince of the King Jing family would never do such a thing.

Seeing the fourth uncle shaking his head and peeking at him frequently with bad intentions, Xiao Yao turned around and left, where did the fourth uncle look like something was wrong, saying that he had a mental problem, he would believe it.

"Little niece, don't you help me find a way." Xiao Jingyan shouted at Xiao Yao, who had already walked to the door.

"If you still have the mind to think nonsense, it proves that the problem is not big, you can think slowly by yourself, I won't get an axe."

"This child is becoming more and more uncute, others can't laugh, how can such an ungentle character find his in-laws in the future." Xiao Jingyan muttered quietly.

He remembered that the little nieces didn't have to go out to find their in-laws, and that their father had already arranged everything, just waiting for the two of them to get married when they were old. Looking at the treatment of others, and then thinking about his sad fate, Xiao Jingyan's mood that had just improved fell back to the bottom again.

On September 18, the envoys of the Northern Jin Dynasty entered Beijing, and King Jing led a group of officials to the city gate to greet them.

"Lord Xiao's dress is a little not very solemn!" King Jing patted Xiao Jingyan's shoulder and teased, this guy is wearing a five-grade official uniform, and there is no extra decoration on his body, and even the fan that has never left his hand does not know where he got it.

"Of course, you have to dress up like this when you go to the official office, where can you wear whatever you want like the prince, and you can wear it as you want?" Xiao Jingyan ignored King Jing's ridicule and pretended to be serious.

King Jing chuckled silently, and said in his heart: When the county lord of Xiyue comes, your sanctimonious appearance can last for a few days, and one day or two days will definitely not pass three days, while it has not been exposed yet, you can pretend!

In the middle of the time, the convoy of the Northern Jin Dynasty mission appeared at the gate of the city, King Jing walked out of the spacious and comfortable chariot, standing in front of the subjects of Tianyu, Xiao Jingyan turned around and shrank to the end of the team, without careful observation, it was really not easy to find.

"I haven't seen you for a long time." A man in his thirties, also dressed in a prince's costume, came out to hug King Jing with his fist.

"King Huaiyang is too polite, this journey is tiring, let's go to the post house to rest first, the royal brother has prepared a banquet in the palace, just waiting for the prince to come!" King Jing responded politely.

"Slow, King Jing why do everything himself, you must be able to have countless people, choose one or two to accompany us, let me see who to choose!" A lilac figure jumped lightly from the luxurious carriage, and the official, who could not hide his curiosity, secretly looked in the direction from which the voice came, and saw a bright and flamboyant woman walking towards the crowd.

"The old and ugly ones are not allowed to look up." The maid beside the woman scolded coquettishly.

"Don't be unreasonable." The young King Huaiyang reprimanded the maids beside his sister, these girls were taken bad by his sister, and now they only know how to judge people by their appearance, they think this is the Northern Jin Dynasty! Tianyu will not blindly connive at this master and servant to do whatever they want, unreasonable.

"Hey, isn't this Lord Xiao? So you're here, too! Since we have had several encounters, it would be good for you to lead the way for us. ”

It's not good at all, but is it useful to oppose it? Xiao Jingyan saw that he knew that he couldn't hide anymore, straightened his back and walked out of the crowd, and arched his hand without being humble or arrogant: "It is a great honor for Xia Guan to be selected by the county lord to lead the way." ”

"The lord of this county has already chosen you." The county lord of Xiyue made a pun, and said with little stars in his eyes, this Xiao Jingyan is really a beauty, ah no, a beautiful man! Casually wearing a dress is so charming, he is chic in a white robe, he is evil and charming in a purple casual dress, and now he is wearing an official uniform and gives people a sense of a humble gentleman, which makes people can't take their eyes off.

"Ahem, then there's Lord Laushaw." King Huaiyang stepped forward a few steps and grabbed his sister who wanted to pounce on Xiao Jingyan, of course he couldn't look down on this little official of Tianyu who had nothing to show for himself, but his sister had an idea since she was a child, not to mention his brother, that is, when his father was alive, Huaiyang Wangfu was also the sister of this county lord, and their father and son had been begging for life under a woman for many years, and the misery in their hearts could be seen.

Now it's time to see the moon, although this kid is not worthy of his sister in terms of identity, although he is not willing to marry his only sister far away. But as soon as he thought that he could turn over and be the master in the future, his beloved concubine would never see his sister again, and he was so frightened that his face was bloodless and trembling, and King Huaiyang personally escorted his sister to Tianyu.

"King Huaiyang is too polite."

"Then it's hard work, Lord Xiao, let's see you in the palace in the evening." King Jing made a gesture of inviting first, and smiled meaningfully at Xiao Jingyan, Fourth Master Xiao, the next thing is your performance.

Xiao Jingyan couldn't pretend to be a decent man and gentleman today, he didn't believe that in front of everyone's eyes, when he treated him politely, Lord Xiyue dared to treat him.

After coming to the post house, Xiao Jingyan wanted to escape after arranging everything for King Huaiyang and his party, how could the county lord of Xiyue, who had already sent someone to keep an eye on him, let people leave easily! What is this for, this beautiful man is his own goal, and he must take it.

"Master Xiao, where are you going! We just came to Tianyu and we are not familiar with each other, have you just left it alone? "Because the Northern Jin Dynasty is located in the northwest, the folk customs are fierce, and women go out to play, hunt, and even go to the battlefield everywhere. What they lack is a weakness, in order to learn the weakness of Tianyu women, the county lord of Xiyue has also put a lot of effort.

But this kind of behavior really has to be done by people, Xiao Jingyan looked at the nondescript and pretentious actions of the county lord of Xiyue and wanted to vomit, what is this, he is not safe and naughty, and he looks comfortable with his waist crossed!

"Why, doesn't Lord Xiao like delicate women? Actually, I don't like it, how many years can you live in the world, why should you be restricted, you should live freely, cry when you want, laugh when you want, you are right, you are right? Xiyue hopes that her views can be recognized by Xiao Jingyan, which is related to her life in the next few decades, and she can't do it if she doesn't understand it clearly!

"The county lord is a relative of the emperor, so naturally he can do whatever he wants." Even if you say that the moon is square, someone will echo it, what does this have to do with me, Xiao Jingyan sneered.

"But the county lord also wants to marry!" Xiyue pretended to be shy, in fact, she especially wanted to see Xiao Jingyan's reaction when she heard this, but she was a little worried that the other party would be scared away by her cheekiness.

Xiao Jingyan just didn't understand the meaning of her words, and hung his head and waited for the next sentence without saying a word.

"Xiao Jingyan, I don't believe that you don't understand what I mean, do you really think that I don't dare to ask your emperor Tianyu for marriage? At that time, you will have to leave your hometown, and you will never be able to return to Tianyu for the rest of your life. ”

"Xiaguan's parents are old, so Xiaguan will never leave Kyoto again, if the emperor really makes an order, it's a big deal that I will escape into the empty door, if someone wants to threaten my family, then Xiao can only apologize with death."

Xiao Jingyan's tone was resolute and firm, and King Huaiyang, who was hiding in the shadows, sighed, his sister is going to be defeated!
