Two days later, Gu An and his party finally arrived in Jingcheng!

Looking at the wide city gate in front of you, you can see the word "Jingcheng" written on the city gate, which is majestic, all of which show the grandeur of the city!

As the capital of the Chu State, Jingcheng does have its own uniqueness. Compared with the solemnity of Yongcheng, Jingcheng pays more attention to its gorgeous atmosphere.

In order to demonstrate the bearing of the Chu State, the Emperor of Chu specially ordered the crown prince Xiang Jue to lead the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs to the city gate to personally welcome the arrival of the Southern Tang Dynasty envoys.

When Gu An and the others came to the city gate, they saw where the crown prince Xiang Jue was already waiting.

And there was a large crowd of people around, and although this place was heavily protected and they couldn't enter it, they still looked at it from a distance, and their faces were full of curiosity.

Yes, after all, this is the princess of the Southern Tang Dynasty, many of them have never left the Chu State in their lives, and even in Jingcheng, they are naturally curious about the difference between the people of the Southern Tang Dynasty.

Xiang Jue, as the crown prince of Chu State, is wearing a gorgeous dress with black and gold moire inlaid on the top, and his appearance is also delicate and handsome, standing there dignified and generous, all showing his noble temperament, this is Xiang Jue, the prince of Chu State.

Mu Wanqin also disguised herself as a man to become Mu Shaobai, accompanying Gu An, looking at the young man in front of the crowd, if she didn't know his character, Mu Wanqin would definitely praise him for being a son.

So she quietly turned her head and said to Gu An with some regret: "The fourth sister is going to marry him?" If it weren't for his special fetishes, it would be a good choice! ”

Gu An also recognized Mu Wanqin's words, if Xiang Jue, as the prince of Chu State, was a good candidate for his identity and appearance, it would not be a shame for the fourth princess to marry.

However, the heavens did not get his wish, but this person's choice was very unique and unacceptable, and it was naturally impossible for the princess to marry someone like him.

At this moment, Wei Jingxuan, as the envoy sent by the Chu State to greet the princess, naturally took the lead in meeting the crown prince Xiang Jue.

Although Wei Jingxuan looked down on this prince in his heart, he couldn't lose his duty as a courtier, he still saluted Xiang Jue very respectfully and said: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, the minister has fulfilled his mission and has welcomed back Her Royal Highness the princess." ”

Xiang Jue helped Wei Jingxuan up, and said with a smile: "Lord Wei, please get up quickly, it's been a hard journey!" ”

Although Wei Jingxuan's official character is not high, he is the leader of the literary circle of Chu State, and Xiang Jue naturally does not dare to despise him, so he shows his courtesy and good manners, and enough respect for Wei Jingxuan.

His purpose in doing this was naturally to win people's hearts, and the effect was also very good, at least the ministers who followed were secretly nodding their heads and expressing satisfaction with the prince's behavior.

Wei Jingxuan continued: "The princess of the Southern Tang Dynasty is in the carriage behind, this time she is personally escorted by General Gu Angu, and the arrangement for them is decided by the crown prince. ”

Xiang Jue nodded: "Well, the Southern Tang Dynasty and my Chu State are good friends with Qin and Jin, so naturally we can't snub Her Royal Highness the Princess and the soldiers of the Southern Tang Dynasty, I think I will arrange for them to go to the Jade Shuyuan to live temporarily!" ”

Yushuin?

Wei Jingxuan frowned when he heard this, wondering if he had heard it wrong.

The other ministers also frowned after hearing this, not how good the Jade Shuyuan is, but that this place is too ordinary, how can they show the sincerity of the Chu State!

It was originally a courtyard that had been abandoned for a long time, and although it was repaired later, it was also very simple, how could it reflect the noble identity of the Southern Tang Dynasty princess Jin Zhi Yuye?

Before Wei Jingxuan could speak, a minister stood up and said, "Your Royal Highness the Prince, can you change another place, I'm afraid it's not appropriate here!" ”

Xiang Jue was unhappy when he saw someone questioning his decision.

However, he still maintained this smile on his face and explained: "Although this Jade Shuyuan is said to be a remote place, it is also beautiful and magnificent, so what's wrong? I think that's it! ”

"It's-"

This person was about to say when Wei Jingxuan interrupted him and motioned to him: "Lord Wen, let's listen to the prince's decision!" ”

Wen Zi'an saw that Wei Jingxuan also agreed, shook his head, he didn't understand what Wei Jingxuan meant, but he didn't open his mouth to persuade the prince anymore.

He and Wei Jingxuan have been friends with Zhang Yue for many years, and some time ago he received a letter from Zhang Yue, telling him about the previous decision of Wei Jingxuan and Zhang Yue, and chose to support Gu An's mission to Chu, so he also maintained a good impression of Gu An and others.

Just now, I was a little dissatisfied when I saw that the prince had arranged the residence of the princess of Nantang very hastily, what does this mean?

Doesn't this show that you want to embarrass the people of the Southern Tang Dynasty!

It's just that he couldn't figure out that Wei Jingxuan actually agreed to this matter, which was very unusual.

Xiang Jue was also very satisfied when he saw Wei Jingxuan knowing each other like this, so he said with a smile: "It's still Lord Wei who is reasonable!" ”

Xiang Jue immediately stepped forward to the front of the princess's carriage, saluted and said: "Xiang Jue has seen Her Royal Highness the princess, the princess has been traveling all the way from the Southern Tang Dynasty, and you can go to the other courtyard to rest first!" ”

A fresh and refined voice came from inside the carriage: "There is Prince Lao's concern." ”

Gu An and the others stood beside the carriage and also saluted Xiang Jue, after all, Xiang Jue was also the prince of Chu State and the nominal person the princess was going to marry, so Gu An and the others also showed their etiquette.

As the representatives of the Southern Tang Dynasty this time, they naturally can't lose their courtesy.

Even if it is a formal respect, it needs to be done, and the drama should be done in a full set.

At this time, Xiang Jue looked at Gu An, and said curiously: "You are Gu An Gu Boyan, I have heard of your name for a long time, but I have never seen it!" ”

Xiang Jue looked at Gu An, and his eyes lit up, this person was powerful, and as one of the four sons of the Southern Tang Dynasty, he was deeply valued, and he was also happy at first sight.

Gu An didn't like Xiang Jue's gaze very much, but he didn't show a disgusting expression, but said calmly: "An has also heard of His Royal Highness, and it really deserves its reputation!" ”

Xiang Jue suddenly became interested, and said with a smile: "Have you heard of me?" I don't know what kind of influence it will have on you! ”

Mu Wanqin frowned when he saw that the prince of Chu was interested in Gu An, but he heard about this prince's habits, so he was naturally worried, so he said: "Your Highness is naturally famous all over the world, how can we ordinary people understand it!" ”

Xiang Jue looked at Mu Wanqin at this time, Mu Wanqin was wearing a light blue gown at this moment, handsome and beautiful, which made Xiang Jue can't help but take a few more looks.

He sighed in his heart: "Are all the men in the Southern Tang Dynasty so handsome, what a pity!" ”

He smiled at Mu Wanqin and asked, "I don't know the name of this son?" ”

Mu Wanqin looked at Xiang Jue's face and felt disgusted. Naturally, he didn't want to deal with him, but after all, he was on other people's territory, so he couldn't refuse, so he had to say: "Mu Qing, Mu Shaobai!" ”

Xiang Jue said in surprise: "Oh, you are Mu Shaobai!" That fifth son of the Southern Tang Dynasty! Well deserved! ”

At this time, Wei Jingxuan also saw that their prince was a little unprofessional, so he interjected: "Hehe, prince, it's not too early, I think it's better to let the princess go back and rest early!" ”

Xiang Jue then remembered the purpose of his visit this time, and patted his head and said, "Yes, yes, the bad one is a big mistake!" Please also ask the princess to move to the courtyard to rest! ”

The fourth princess said lightly: "Well, thank you prince! ”

Gu An then led the delegation towards the other courtyard.

However, he didn't bring in all the men and horses this time, because this is the capital of the Chu State, so naturally it is impossible for him to bring a team of 5,000 people in, so he chose 500 elite soldiers as escorts to follow him into the city. Among them, Zhao Chong accompanied him and was in charge of the commander of the troops, while the other three stayed outside the city and camped.

Wei Jingxuan naturally followed them to the other courtyard, and he introduced the situation of this place to Gu An as he walked.

Wei Jingxuan introduced: "General Gu, Yushuyuan is a remote place, it is a little far away from the palace, but the environment is good, it is suitable for resting!" ”

The reason why he agreed to the prince's arrangement was also due to his considerations.

After all, Gu An and they are new to life, and they are not familiar with the place, so it is not easy for people to disturb them.

Some things are not convenient to do, and although Jade Shuyuan is a little simpler, there are not many forces to install eyeliner, and the terrain is open, and it is not easy to hide your whereabouts, so it is an ideal place.

Listening to Wei Jingxuan's explanation, Gu An also understood the origin of this Yu Shuxuan.

Originally, this was the residence of a dignitary, but it was raided because of offending people, and finally it was deserted.

And because it has been left unattended all year round, the houses here have been destroyed a lot.

Later, it was the crown prince who bought the place and sent someone to repair and take care of it.

This time Gu An arranged for them to come here, on the one hand, Xiang Jue himself did not like women, and deliberately sent them away from him, and on the other hand, it was also disgusting to the Southern Tang people.

However, Xiang Jue probably didn't expect that this place would become the best place for Gu An and others.

After all, Gu An's purpose in coming to Chu was to get rid of the fate of the princess marrying into the Chu State, as well as to separate the relationship between the Chu State and the Yan State.

There are some things that are not good to do openly, and the quiet environment of this Jade Lady Courtyard is very suitable for them to do this.

Just after Gu An and the others left, an elegant figure gradually disappeared into the crowd.

This person is Gongsun Qian, and she is also watching the scene of the arrival of the envoy of the Southern Tang Dynasty in the crowd just now.

She muttered to herself, "Is that person Gu An!" It's a little handsome! ”

The last time she received the task from her stepfather, she asked her to stop this peace, but she knew that it was not something she could do easily, so she deliberately came to the city gate to observe Gu An and the others, in order to wait for an opportunity.

She was going to find a suitable time to meet this Gu An for a while, what instinct made her stepfather Murong Sheng pay so much attention.

Gongsun Qian disappeared quickly, and no one would notice her leaving,

And the crowd still lingered for a long time, and they were talking there in groups of three or five, and they were still very curious about the Southern Tang people. And this is also the first time in three hundred years that the Chu State has been married to a princess from another country, especially the princess of the overlord country of the Southern Tang Dynasty, which is even more extraordinary.

And at this moment, there is a group of unknown people who are spreading a message, that is, the matter of Yan Guo sending people to assassinate the princess several times, this is big news. onclick="hui"
