59. The Alien Envoy

It was night, in the Zichen Palace, the bells and drums rang in unison, the colorful silk hung high, and the palace lights gathered, as bright as the galaxy.

This time it was Zhuo Luo in the northwest and a Tatar in the north, who had just annexed the surrounding small tribes, and became famous, named Hu Lie, and feared the power of Tianye, and sent a group of the most admired warriors in the tribe to pay respects.

Zhuo Luo is an old acquaintance, and he has long been called a minister, and he has friendly exchanges with Tianye, and each other's specialties can be seen everywhere in the market. That Hu Lie is still very strange, strange is strange, the other party is not polite at all, the first time he came to ask to marry the princess. The civil and military officials rolled their eyelids when they heard that Big Tooth laughed, not to mention whether Tianye has a princess, even if there is, it is not something that Outer Rong Di can covet!

The pillar of the hall is thick and tall as if it can arch the universe, the ascending dragon circling around the pillar shows the majesty of the heavenly family, Li Yuanhong sits on the throne of the main seat, and the twelve algae cover his face, and only the smooth chin and the mouth that is almost curled into a line can be seen. A huge golden dragon with the sun and moon in the sky above his head and the pearl of the night in his mouth could not compete with it without turning off the lights, but the external light obviously did not make him a true monarch. He, waiting for someone, no, it should be said, everyone is waiting for someone, as long as that person does not come, the banquet can never officially begin.

Bang bang bang...... Hu Lie's warriors were not educated, their temperament was rough and straightforward, and they burned on the roof of Zichen Palace early with hunger, and slapped the table top with a shocking price. In contrast, Zhuo Luo has a lot of rules, the main envoy Prince Shawuti is the favorite son of King Zhuo Luo, proficient in the writing and customs of several countries, poems, books, rituals and music of other countries, all of them are at your fingertips, with him, the envoy group has an elegant and Confucian demeanor, and it is more like a Tianye person than a serious Tianye person.

The dancers sang and danced lightly, with wide sleeves like fairy girls, and the fierce men couldn't appreciate the slow and soft dance, and they yawned and fell asleep one by one, making it clear that they had no right to bully the emperor. After another hour like this, one of them finally couldn't bear it anymore, got up and scolded: "Sing and sing, sing him a bird!" From morning to night, grinding is not in the embroidery! ”

"Ha Gangmu sit down!" Deputy Huo Huoer shouted in a low voice, anger shot out of one eye, and his braided beard trembled non-stop, he was a half-hundred-hundred-year-old man with full muscles, but he had a irritable irritability that did not match his age.

"Lord Huohuer, they are bullying people, the prime minister of the bird has not seen anyone since he showed his face from the court, wearing a bullshit carved mask, secretive, sneaky, waiting for people in the court, waiting for people at the banquet, and don't look at what time it is, can't he come to dawn and we have to wait until dawn? The emperor obviously has a fire in his belly but he doesn't dare to put a fart, he is so cowardly as a woman, Ha Gangmu, I want to ask who is in charge of this Tianye! ”

Huo Huoer smiled coldly: "I said a long time ago that Tianye is not what it used to be, their emperor can wait, the Manchu Dynasty civil and military can wait, you and I outsiders can't wait?" Shut up, the rules of Middle-earth are big, and they can't compare to our fierceness, and if you make any more noise, beware of being dragged out! ”

Ha Gangmu sat down unwillingly, and his mouth was still angry: "Just cut out his brain with an axe, see if he dares to see no one in his eyes!" Subconsciously lowered his waist, only to remember that the Bing Ge blade had been removed as early as the court meeting, and he couldn't help but curse secretly.

"The supremacy of the ruler is a sign of great chaos in the world."

The person who spoke was the head of the envoy this time, and the general who led Hu Lie to sweep away many tribes, Xiyou Dumin, who was looking directly at the Nine Dragons Moon-Shaped Luodian Throne under Li Yuanhong with great interest.

- Fortunately, they use the Tatar language, and no one can understand it, otherwise it will be a big storm. However, even so, the officials of Tianye were still rude, and they glared angrily for a while, full of contempt.

Zhang De, the head of the inner court, lowered his head to Li Yuanhong's ear and asked two words, straightened up, swept away the dust, and said loudly: "Who is sitting up and making noise?" ”

In the past few days that the Hu Lie delegation has been here, the etiquette has not been learned, and he has picked up a lot of scolding words, Ha Gangmu leaned into Huo Huoer's ear and asked in a low voice: "That eunuch is blind?" ”

Huo Huoer explained: "Knowingly ask to show the dignity of the Son of Heaven. Xiyou Dumin snorted slightly, "If you want to cover it, how can the king's dignity be deliberately shown." Huo Huoer nodded silently, got up and bowed deeply, and said in a non-standard Chinese: "Your country's treasures are surrounded by the rich people of Tianhua country, and it is difficult to see this scene in the bitter cold land outside the country, so it is difficult to suppress and admire." Forgive me, all the princes. Zhang Deluo bowed his head, "I treat each other with courtesy, and I also ask you to return it with courtesy, don't lose your honor in front of you." ”

Huo Huoer made another Han salute before sitting down, he was strong, with a square face with bulging masseter muscles, but he wanted to learn from Tianye Siwen to salute, and all the warriors snickered. The Lord made Xiyu Dumin displeased, "Why do you raise the morale of others and destroy your own prestige?" Huo Huoer scoffed: "They love to listen to flattery. ”

It was at this time that a succession of announcements came from outside the hall: "Your Excellency the Prime Minister has arrived—" From far to near, the sound shook the sky. In an instant, the singing and dancing wind music stopped suddenly, and the female music quickly separated on both sides, giving way to the wide aisle in the center.

For a while, Feng Qiwu led Feng Lin to walk in slowly, the blood jade hair crown was in the wind, the black satin dress was swaying to the ground, the abundance was outstanding, and the bearing was overwhelming. The heavy mask of the morning was gone, replaced by a light carved silver mask, the thin feathered silver sheet was clearly layered, expanding from the right eye to the back of the ear, and the half of the butterfly wings were patchworked, and the phoenix tail was curved, just to hide the unsightly traces. Feng Lin hangs a sword at his waist, dressed as a neat swordsman, as the prime minister's close guard, he has a lot of privileges, and he wears weapons in and out of the palace in a grand manner, which is the only one in the country.

"The minister is late, and the saint forgives the sin."

Feng Qiwu finished the salute, sat down in the chief, supported his forehead, carelessly, Feng Lin stood at the back, not smiling, as dangerous as a sword that is about to be unsheathed at any time. Li Yuanhong was concerned about his subordinates, shook his head and smiled: "Aiqing has always been punctual, and today friends are coming to the court, why is it ......?"

"The Prime Minister occasionally felt unwell, thinking of the envoys of friendly countries and the ministers full of ministers, he insisted on dragging his sick body to come, and there was a slight delay, please forgive me!" Fenglin clenched his fists highly, and his eyes did not squint.

A small guard, interrupting the emperor to speak first, ignoring the emperor's holy face behind, but no one dared to speak, but a few adults shouted at Prime Minister Feng as if they were competing, and then the hall was full of praise and praise, and finally the hall was full of seats, and bowed in unison: "My lord is hard, may my lord be prosperous for a thousand years, and Changchun for ten thousand years!! ”

Thousands of autumns are prosperous, thousands of years of Changchun, call three times in a row, the scene is spectacular, there is a lot of momentum of the mountain calling long live, and the envoys are dumbfounded.

Feng Qiwu really could stand such a compliment, and sat steadily like Mount Tai, not even bothering to say a word, only moving his hand to indicate that they should sit back. Seeing such a scene, how could the little emperor not be frightened, he couldn't help but shrink into the throne, and his momentum suddenly became half shorter. "I heard from my father-in-law this afternoon that the two adults of the Ministry of Rites, Zhao and Jiang, were driven home by the top of the court, and the two elders have always had no quarrel with others, although they don't know where to anger Aiqing, but they want to ask Aiqing to raise their noble hands, and they have all the face of their old age."

Prime Minister Feng said indifferently: "Zhao Li, Jiang Zhixuan's corpse is a vegetarian meal, and he actually sent the woman's things to my prime minister's mansion. I see that the two elders are so ancient, rather than learn from the ancient sages to return to the field, leave the opportunity to the young people, and from then on plough the ridges and fields, wild cranes and idle clouds, it is not a beautiful talk. He picked up the rhino horn cup and raised it towards the emperor, and seemed to turn his anger into joy, "The old guy still dares to shout injustice, saying that it is the Holy Providence, and the minister remembers that the first emperor hates the most violent stiff people in his life, and often says that the ossification of the people harms one person, the ossification of the ministers harms a group, and the ossification of the monarch harms a country. The saint was often admonished by the first emperor, and he should remember it more firmly than the ministers, and he would never do such a foolish thing. The two old guys dare to slander the saint, it is not an exaggeration to die, and it is really cheap to be dismissed. ”

Li Yuanhong listened to the five internal surges, his blood boiled, and he almost took out a mouthful of blood on the spot, he slapped the wine glass on the armrest of the dragon throne, and the elixir flew up, staining the sleeves, and the jade algae on the emperor's crown crackled and shook.

"I'm going to change my clothes, let's have a banquet!"

There were few guards in the side hall of Zichen Palace, Li Yuanhong's steps were fast, the jade beads in front of him hit his face and hurt, he fiercely pulled off the fixed hairpin, the heavy imperial crown rolled down, the placket was lifted to the sides, and the dragon robe fell to the ground immediately.

- Don't! Don't want it all! Whoever loves will take it, save this anger!

Zhang De chased all the way and picked it up, and called out: "Your Majesty!" Manners, manners! Li Yuanhong turned a deaf ear, kicked open a room, and took the hanging sword is a burst of random slashing, until the room was scattered, and he also cried.

"Father-in-law, none of the civil and military forces in the Manchu Dynasty are willing to say a word, they all go to cling to him, I sit on it is an ornament, and I have to be mocked by him from time to time." As he spoke, he became more and more sad, and he actually hated the sword around his neck, and shouted: "I don't think this nest of emperors is inappropriate, so as not to lose face to Fanbang!" ”

Zhang Desan's soul was scattered, he pounced on the blade of the sword, and shouted in a lost voice: "Don't say stupid things about the emperor, there is always a heartfelt one among the hundred officials, but he has to act like a pretentious person because of the situation!" - Isn't Tobe Li-sama a clear-eyed person? There are also several highly respected old tycoons, who are deeply influenced by the former emperor Longen, and their hearts are also towards the emperor! ”

The little emperor was said by Zhang De like this, and saw that he rushed up regardless of his life, he was really a heartfelt look, and a warm flow flowed in his heart, and he suddenly felt that the road ahead was bright and could go, so he threw away his sword and cried for a while, and then overturned the table and scolded angrily: "The phoenix thief should die, he instructed the lackeys of the court to do so many hateful things, I just used Zhao Jiang's hand to warn him, he was so calculating, he embarrassed me in front of outsiders, it is really hateful!" Hateful!! ”

Thinking that the "phoenix thief" was obviously discussing matters in the cabinet all day long, and he wanted to protect Hu Hu in order to play a trick, and made a good scene, he was annoyed in his heart, and couldn't help but curse Feng Qiwu viciously: "It's good if you really hold on to your illness, you can do evil things, and you hurt the yin owl, but you can't be punished!" ”

Zhang De laughed, sighed and worried: the emperor knew how to recharge his energy as early as a child, and he was calm and restrained like an adult, Hong'er was his only son, but he didn't follow him at all. If you don't have the heart and the city government in the heavenly family, it is tantamount to digging your own grave. Thinking about everything, it is because of his own sake, he is very pampered in one, lacks a brother's wall, and because he lost his father at a young age, no one taught him the way to be a king, so he is particularly immature.

Your Majesty, Your Majesty, how many conspiracies and filthy conspiracies have you gone through to make your son from repeating the mistakes of the past, and only leaving the righteous and unified lineage, this is the heart of your loving father under the strict monarch, but the great benevolence is not benevolent, and the way of heaven is clear, as a monarch, how can you go against the sky because of a little selfishness? Now that the strong minister is in charge, Hong'er is weak and naïve, you have a spirit outside the sky, how sad it is-

When a foreign race came to the court, the little emperor had a whim, and wanted to take the opportunity to remind Prime Minister Feng to settle down, not to be too arrogant, not to backfire, and get a lot of humiliation.

It's a misunderstanding, Feng Qiwu was still willing to give the emperor some face when outsiders were in the past, didn't he have to do it on the surface? This time, he was ruthless, just because he was really disgusted by Li Yuanhong.

This has to start from when Feng Qiwu first entered the officialdom, when he was promoted quickly, and because of his youthful beauty and chic description, he was inevitably jealous and hated, and gradually spread extremely unbearable words, slandering him as Dong Xian's flaw. Feng Qiwu, who heard the sound of the wind, almost overturned the roof, and was about to go to those people's houses with a knife, but fortunately Feng Lin stopped him, saying that now it is not as good as before, you can do a big career with peace of mind, don't use knives and guns, and leave the killing to the next person to do.

It took a lot of persuasion to save his future. Feng Qiwu was unwilling to give up on this humiliation, and he refused to fake the hands of others when he took revenge, but he just forbears it, and it was not until he took power that he fabricated charges and personally shamed himself. In the forty-four years of Fengde, as long as the people who were involved with the rumors did not escape, the main ones were exposed to the corpse market, and even the ancestral house and ancestral grave of the hometown were dug up.

Emperor Jing naturally didn't know the ins and outs of the matter, but seeing that he was young and neat, he appreciated it very much, and it happened that the arrogance of the Cai family made his old man very unhappy, so the vigorous Cai Wu case was launched, which was widely implicated and killed, which can be called the biggest injustice since the prince fought for the prince and the rebellion of King Ping.

Since then, talk about the phoenix's color change.

I didn't mention much about the past, I only said that Fengqi Wuxue was ashamed of snow, but the days of forbearance made him unhappy, and it was difficult to let go until now. Li Yuanhong gave him a group of clothes that women loved, and in his opinion, he did not hesitate to insult the women sent by Wuhou, so he was troubled, where would there be good fruits for the little emperor to eat.

Li Yuanhong was mad with anger in the side hall, Prime Minister Feng looked at the two envoys leisurely, and met in a hurry in the morning, and they knew each other, so they were no longer introduced.

Sha Wu had heard of Feng Qiwu's name earlier, and respectfully led people up to offer Zhuo Luo's highest courtesy. The Zoro people were of Uighur blood, with a high nose and deep eyes, a long body, and a heroic appearance, but Nashawuti was infected with a strange disease, and the medicine was useless, and after a few years, he fell to the point where he fell to the point where he could not stop coughing when he sat down, and now he walked a few steps, and he was even more crumbling.

The prime minister ordered someone to help him up, and said: "The prince doesn't have to be polite, go back and sit, King Zhuo Luo sent a letter saying that the prince is not in good health, if there is any rudeness, let the prime minister take care of it, Zhuo Luo is really polite, the prince is not in good health and can come thousands of miles to the court, you can know his sincerity." After that, he ordered someone to move a soft seat for the envoys of Zhuo Luo, and the wine and dishes were immediately changed to the flavor of the Western Regions, and even the singing and dancing turned into a lively and fierce Hu Xuan dance.

Hu Lieren's hearts were uneven, their faces were gloomy, and some people even couldn't help but use Tatar to explode foul language, Feng Lin sneered and raised his voice: "You came to ask for marriage, and you don't even have anyone who can speak?" ”

Huo Huoer didn't know what this guard meant, whether it was for that scolding sentence or referring to them not being able to speak Chinese, so he signaled to be impatient, got up and said, "What do you mean?" ”

"What do you mean that you know in your hearts, when you enter my Tianye Dynasty to see my king, I don't know if the number of etiquette is full of swear words, whether Hu Lie is here to ask for a kiss or to declare war!"

Huo Huoer was shocked in his heart, could it be that the guards could understand Tatar language, and looked at Feng Qiwu in a blink of an eye, only to see him frowning and lowering his eyes, without saying a word, he really didn't care about anything, and let his own guards be arrogant. Just as he was about to speak, the main envoy Xiyou Dumin pressed him, bowed slightly and said: "Hu Lie is a rough man by nature, I will fight all year round, and I will not be informal, and I will ask Haihan if I offend." Indeed, I have come to ask for a princess to marry my king, and if your kingdom agrees, I shall be an eternal in-law and conclude a covenant of brothers. ”

He was in the prime of life, with ape arms and a bee waist, a broad nose and a high forehead, thick black eyebrows, slightly curly hair, and a black iron beast head hoop on his forehead. He spoke a good and round Tianye official language, and his demeanor had an extraordinary demeanor of a general, which was definitely not comparable to Deputy Envoy Huo Huoer.

Feng Qiwu slowly drank a glass of wine, put down the rhino horn cup, and said: "General Xiyou Dumin is polite, the general has great achievements, if you say that you have offended this seat and have not greeted the general, wouldn't it be even more offended." He stood up and bowed slightly, "It stands to reason that the evil king of the ancient capital assigned General Xiyou to come in person to ask Tianye should not refuse, but unfortunately your warriors are too rough, and you didn't even ask if there is a princess in my court, I am afraid that Tianye can only let you be disappointed." ”

"What? Tianye has no princess! "This is obviously something they didn't expect, it's not that Middle-earth men like women very much, three wives and four concubines are commonplace, and it's a big deal, not to mention the emperor, three thousand beauties, a group of children, how can they be so cold that they don't even have a princess!

Feng Lin felt that the sentence "what" was extremely stupid, and couldn't help but smile contemptuously: "The first emperor is cold on his knees, there is indeed no princess, if you don't believe it, just send someone to inquire." ”

Hu Lie warriors, you look at me, I look at you, face disgraced, Tianye ministers were about to pretend to comfort two sentences, the little emperor Li Yuanhong strode out, laughed loudly: "It's okay, no princess has a county lord, my cousin Li Xiwei is at a young age, born with a beautiful face and moon appearance, it is rare that she can also do kung fu, she can really be described as a heroine in the world, I don't know what your envoy wants?" Heartily laughed twice, and the conversation suddenly changed: "Naturally, I am still young and don't understand the major affairs of diplomatic relations, so I still have to ask Zai Fu to take the idea." ”

The atmosphere fell suddenly, and Feng Lin screamed in his heart: It's over, why did you forget her!
