Xiao Zhen's injuries have largely healed, and a group of six people set off for this time, stopping and stopping along the way, and it took more than half a month to arrive in Pingcheng.

This time when he arrived in Pingcheng, Xiao Xun no longer concealed his origins, but showed the golden seal of the prince of Qi in the Southern Dynasty, and took the imperial pen documents of Jingjie and Xiao Daocheng to stay in the post house as an envoy.

Cao Shangshu, a guest of the Northern Wei Dynasty, came to the post house to entertain the envoys, and he first bowed to Xiao Zhen: "Xiaguan Feng Zhu is Cao Shangshu, a guest of Honglu Temple. ”

"Feng Shangshu is polite," Xiao Zhen bowed.

Feng Zhu immediately invited Xiao Zhen and Xie Zheng, as well as Huan Ling to take a seat, and then served tea to the three of them one by one, then walked to Xiao Zhen and said grovelly: "The three of you have a short rest, and this official has sent someone into the palace to report to His Majesty and the Empress Dowager, I believe that Your Majesty and the Empress Dowager will send a decree to receive them later." ”

Earlier, Xiao Daocheng had personally sent a letter to the Northern Wei Emperor Tuoba Hong, telling him that he would send the prince and envoys to the Northern Wei Dynasty.

However, Xiao Zhen was particularly low-key along the way, and the itinerary was even more impermeable, and now he arrived in Pingcheng, which was sudden for the Northern Wei Dynasty.

"Hmm," Xiao Zhen nodded slightly.

As soon as the words fell, I heard the shrill voice of the inner servant outside: "His Royal Highness the King of Nan'an has arrived!" ”

Xie Zheng was stunned for a moment, she turned her head sideways, followed the sound and looked out of the door, Huan Ling was also in her sight, the two also glanced at each other, Xie Zheng then retracted her gaze, she was calm on the surface, but in her heart she was unwilling to make a secret trouble.

This Nan'an King Tuoba Zhen has a lot to do with her!

Tuoba Zhen and the grandfather of the current Northern Wei Emperor Tuoba Hong Tuoba Jun are brothers, the two can be said to be separated by several generations, it stands to reason that he should not stay with the emperor, but he regarded himself as the emperor's uncle, relying on his great military exploits, forced to stay in Pingcheng, with ill intentions.

Three years ago, Tuoba Zhen led troops to invade Liang County, and she had fought with him, although this person was over half a hundred years old, but his skills should not be underestimated.

At that time, Tuoba Zhen had already walked in, Feng Zhu stepped forward and bowed, but Tuoba Zhen just waved his hand casually, indicating that he didn't need to be polite.

"I have long heard that the prince of the Southern Dynasty will bring envoys to visit my Great Wei, and this king has been happy for a long time," Tuoba Zhen walked up to Xiao Zhen, bowed very politely, and then said: "The prince of Qi is famous, and this king has admired him for many years, and now he finally sees the deity." ”

When Xie Yu was framed for colluding with Tuoba Zhen, the king of Nan'an in the Northern Wei Dynasty, Xiao Zhen is still haunted by it, and seeing Tuoba Zhen today reminded him of his sad past, although he despised it in his heart, but since Tuoba Zhen saluted him, if he didn't say anything, I am afraid it would be too rude.

"King Nan'an is polite," Xiao Zhen only nodded at him, and Quan nodded his head.

Tuoba Zhen's gaze then swept towards Xie Zheng and Huan Ling in turn.

Xie Zheng and Huan Ling also bowed to him, Tuoba Zhen saw Xie Zheng again, he was already fixed, he looked at Xie Zheng, and said with a smile: "Isn't this Xie Yu Da Sima?" This king can hear...... "He has already heard about Xie Yu, and when he talks about this, he won't talk about it any further."

This Tuoba Zhen, although he has only met Xie Yu two or three times, but his appearance is very clear, it can be said that even if Xie Yu dies and turns to ashes, he also remembers her face!

Huan Ling knew what he was going to say, so he answered: "Xie Dasima died three years ago, this is Xie Zheng Xie Qishi, but he is just a little similar to Xie Dasima." ”

Is it a resemblance? It's clearly 10 out of 10 alike!

Tuoba Zhen was polite on the surface, but he was teasing people between his words, and he said: "That Xie Da Sima is a genius who leads the troops, but it's a pity that he died young!" This king also fought with her, and it was a shame to say that in that match, this king was lucky enough to hurt three inches of her armpit, and was laughed at by his subordinates to bully the old and the young. ”

What is the three inches under the armpit? Xie Zheng put her hand under the food table, put it on her lap, and involuntarily clenched her fists, she hated Tuoba Zhen to the core, all because of this old and cunning person, and her words were frivolous.

When the two were fighting, this Tuoba Zhen stabbed her when she was unprepared, and deliberately injured her three inches under the armpit, she quickly fought back, and wanted to cut off his hand, but let him dodge, so he only cut off his three fingers.

Although it was lighter, no matter what, it made him unable to hold a knife again for the rest of his life!

Xiao Zhen frowned tightly, obviously annoyed in his heart, but he was just in the way of business, so he endured it.

Huan Ling had heard Xie Zheng mention that she had cut off three fingers of Tuoba Zhen, and now that Tuoba Zhen was provocative, he also asked in a weird manner: "Hey, what's going on with King Nan'an's hand?" How... Only two fingers? As he spoke, he gestured with his hand outstretched.

Tuoba Zhen was really angry, he also suppressed his anger, retreated to the opposite side and sat down, "This king is here to meet you today, since you have traveled thousands of miles to envoy my Great Wei, there must be something important, this king listens, please speak up." ”

Everyone was surprised, there have always been envoys to other countries, and they should be personally received by the monarchs of other countries.

Xiao Zhen's temper was not very good, and Tuoba Zhen was able to humiliate Xie Yu when he spoke, so he was immediately annoyed, so he said coldly: "What does King Nan'an mean by this?" In a big country, only one county king was sent to receive the envoy? ”

Between his words, he looked down on Tuoba Zhen very much, but Tuoba Zhen was not annoyed, but said lightly: "This is what Your Majesty meant, if it wasn't for Your Majesty's assignment, this king would never come to the post house to see you." ”

Seeing his disdainful attitude, Xiao Zhen was angry, he was about to get up and reprimand, Xie Zheng held him down, and said calmly to Tuoba Zhen: "We sincerely sent an envoy to your country, but the emperor of your country refused to accept guests behind closed doors, which is a bit of a child's play." ”

She had expected that Tuoba Hong would definitely give them a horse, but she didn't expect him to lose his face even if he was a horseman.

It's not a good thing to see the envoy, Xie Zheng secretly sarcastically Tuoba Hong was rude, and Tuoba Zhen naturally heard it.

"What do you mean, Messenger! Your Majesty was happy to learn that there would be an envoy from your country to visit, and now he is only busy with political affairs and can't get out, so he sent this king to receive you. ”

Xie Zheng secretly sneered, "If the emperor of your country really can't get out, according to the etiquette, he should also send the prince here to meet the envoy, may I ask King Nan'an, are you the prince?" ”

"You!" Tuoba Zhen gritted his teeth, pointed directly at Xie Zheng, and then put down his hand, afraid of falling into the handle.

Xie Zheng then said: "Xie knows that King Nan'an is the auxiliary minister of your country, but the auxiliary minister and the prince are always two identities, and no one can overstep their responsibilities, do you say yes?" ”

Tuoba Zhen was already a wolf's ambition, and when Xie Zheng said this, he couldn't help but feel a little weak-hearted, and saw Feng Zhu standing aside, lest this guy go out and talk nonsense, so he took a step back and said: "The envoy is reasonable, we are negligent, this king will enter the palace and go up to heaven to listen." ”

Xie Zheng nodded again, and said with a smile: "I'm tired." ”
