Chapter 107: The Mission Enters Beijing
Zhou Zhao got up and dismounted flutteringly, and it only took a few steps to get in front of them.
"See the Third Highness, His Royal Highness, His Royal Highness."
As soon as Zhou Zhao spoke, the air around him became three points colder.
His voice was as cold as hell, chilling to the heart.
Although he was far away from another country, he recognized the identities of Yu Jingyan and Yu Zeyan at a glance, which shows his "intelligence".
Yu Zeyan was silent, just looked at the person who came.
I have never met before, but I can recognize the right person at once, which shows that this person is thoughtful and has made sufficient preparations.
Yu Jingyan also felt that something was wrong, but as the reception envoy, he still had to take on this responsibility.
"Lord Zhou is polite, why is Prime Minister Zhou personally on the envoy?" Yu Jingyan was also a little surprised, but on the surface, he asked lightly.
"The soul bead is the treasure of my Shangyuan Town, and I must not slack off in this matter, so the king ordered me to go with me."
Although Zhou Zhao's face was cold, he still replied.
After a few words of conversation, Zhou Zhao's cold face was still undiminished, as if he was born not to laugh, which was awe-inspiring.
Talking to this kind of person is tiring, and after a few polite words, Yu Jingyan and Yu Zeyan don't want to talk to them anymore.
"Lord Zhou, please." Yu Jingyan made a gesture of invitation, and then several people got on their horses together and drove towards the city.
The prepared royal post house is near the Xijing Inn, first took Zhou Zhao's delegation to the post house to settle, and then went to the palace to meet non-stop.
Taking advantage of the mission's repair work at the post station, Yu Jingyan and Yu Zeyan also went to the Xijing Inn to rest.
The two went upstairs and sat down in a room with a view of the inn.
The autumn breeze did not reduce the coolness, thanks to the thick clothes worn in the morning, and the two sat on the terrace and drank tea together.
"Why is Zhou Zhao here this time?" Yu Jingyan frowned and said softly.
After thinking about it, I didn't expect such a difficult thing to deal with.
Hearing the news, King Xu was also immediately happy.
He couldn't help but sigh secretly that he didn't take this job...
"It's hard to handle." Yu Zeyan took a sip of hot tea, but he didn't have a sad face at all, but just said in response to Yu Jingyan's words.
"Are all the dark lines in place?" Yu Jingyan asked suddenly.
Yu Zeyan nodded and replied affirmatively: "Don't worry, it's all done." ”
At this time, the post house was already full of people who chose to speak.
These people were all assigned by the emperor before today's departure.
Zhou Zhao sat in the room, closing his eyes and recuperating.
"My lord, this place is full of dark sentinels, do you want to clean it up?" The attendant beside Zhou Zhao asked softly.
Zhou Zhao shook his head lightly, and his tone was cold and disdainful: "You don't have to clean up, if you clean up a batch, there will be another batch, find someone to keep an eye on them, and then be careful in what you say and do." ”
The attendant nodded slightly, then stepped back.
The windows in the room were open, and the wind was blowing in. The autumn wind is blowing, this person is like not feeling the cold, and his clothes are very thin.
He frowned slightly, and the person behind him handed him a jade pendant.
He took the jade pendant in his hand and stroked it gently.
"My lord, do you miss Miss?" The attendant asked softly, "Don't worry, my lord, this time you left the capital, you deliberately left Lord Qing to take care of Miss, and Miss will definitely not have any problems." ”
"Mouthy." Zhou Zhao still didn't open his eyes, and the jade pendant in his hand was rubbed repeatedly.
"Subordinate convicted." The attendant bowed slightly, and immediately stepped back.
Zhou Zhao waved his hand, and the attendant went over with his ear.
His thin lips opened slightly, and he gently spit out a few words: "Have you checked clearly, was it Yu Zhiyan who saved people from me last time?" ”
The squire nodded, "It's him, my lord." ”
A strange smile immediately welled up on the corner of his mouth, "Okay, I remember." ”
At this time, Yu Zhiyan, who was worried about it, had no waves in his heart, and even wanted to eat something.
I waited in the suburbs early in the morning, and I didn't even eat breakfast when I got up late.
"Shen Huan." Yu Zeyan called softly.
"What's the matter, Your Highness?" Shen Huan immediately leaned forward.
"Go and get some food." Yu Zeyan said softly, "Do you want to eat a little bit of it too?" ”
Yu Jingyan shook his head and replied: "I'm really not in the mood to eat, when I saw Zhou Zhao, my heart was up and down." It doesn't matter what you eat. ”
Yu Zeyan nodded, and Shen Huan left immediately.
After a while, Chang Ji brought fresh refreshments.
"Two distinguished guests, use it slowly."
Yu Jingyan casually rewarded some silver, and often went down.
He didn't have any appetite at all, and compared to Yu Zeyan, who was eating happily on the side, he was more worried about Zhou Zhao in the mission.
Originally, there was no Zhou Zhao in the list of envoys, but somehow he changed people halfway.
This week, Zhao was really big-hearted, so he dared to throw away his big stall and come to Xijing.
Everyone in the world knows that in this Shangyuan Dynasty, Prime Minister Zhou Zhao covered the sky with one hand and said the same.
Even the king of Shangyuan had to respect him for three points.
I thought that this prime minister was at least close to the age of sixties, but I never thought that when I saw it today, it was actually the year of his establishment.
Isn't he afraid that King Shangyuan will take advantage of his absence to bloody the situation in the court?
"Zhou Zhao must have come with a purpose when he came this time."
Yu Zeyan took a bite of the shrimp dumplings, which were crystal clear, the skin was thin and the filling was large, and the juice was fragrant, but it was delicious.
He said while eating, and his appetite was not affected at all because of Zhou Zhao's arrival.
Yu Jingyan nodded, waved his hand, and said, "Wen Yuan, did you deliver a letter to the palace?" ”
Wen Yuan, the personal attendant standing aside, nodded slightly, "It's already been handed over, Your Highness." ”
"What message? The palace still doesn't know that it's Zhou Zhao? ”
Yu Zeyan frowned and asked softly.
"I'm afraid it's been passed back now..."Yu Jingyan frowned and said softly.
"Your Highness, you have to eat something, I'm afraid there are still tough battles to fight."
The mission coming to Beijing is a big deal, not to mention that the envoy of this mission is actually the prime minister of Shangyuan.
The inside and outside of the palace have long been busy, and the Ministry of Rites and Honglu Temple have taken over the reception together.
Fortunately, the soul bead that disappeared a few days ago was found, and it was originally for this thing, but now there will be fewer incidents.
Merely... It was a fake Dementor Orb.
Zhou Zhao took a short rest in the royal post house, changed into a dark robe and prepared to enter the palace to meet him.
"What about the son?" Zhou Zhao stood alone, his figure was slender, his eyes were half-closed, and he gently spit out a few words, looking like he was recuperating.
"If you go back to your lordship, the prince is ready."
The son in his mouth is Shangyuan, the son of Shangyuan Wenxuan
This Shangyuan prince has been frail and sickly since he was a child, and his father, Prince Wenxuan, is a long-won general with outstanding military achievements, but unfortunately died on the battlefield a few years ago.
This time he went to Xijing as an envoy, and he had no choice but to do it.
Before the mission, the king of Shangyuan held his hand with tears in his eyes, and the gray-haired "old man" of fifty years entrusted this great task to him personally.
only said one sentence: "Pay attention to Zhou Zhao, be careful." ”
The Soul Bead is Shangyuan's Zhenguo holy weapon, and it can only be controlled by the blood of the Shangyuan royal family.
The king had no eldest son, but only one son had just learned to call his father.
So as a last resort, I sent this frail and sickly little man.
