Chapter 16 Envoys of the Northern Wei Dynasty
The next morning, I was still lazy in bed, until Ling Qiao woke me up, and then I washed and changed. "Miss, I heard that the envoys of the Northern Wei Dynasty will meet Your Majesty today, I don't know how ugly the Northern Wei barbarians look." Ling Qiao said jokingly, squinting a pair of apricot eyes, and her naughty appearance was very cute.
"Is the Northern Wei Dynasty so backward?" I asked, confused.
"I don't know, but I heard everyone say that they are far less prosperous than our Dajin." Ling Qiao paused and returned. "By the way, miss, you don't have to go to ask for peace today, the lady and the son will go to the palace together in the morning."
"All in the palace? Leave me alone? I immediately asked, puzzled. Why can they all go into the palace to see the excitement, leaving only me! ”
"What did the young lady say? Although you are also a golden branch and jade leaf, you don't have a serious title in the national capital, of course you can't go......" Instead, Ling Qiao looked at me inexplicably, feeling that she didn't understand, how could I even forget the rules of this audience today.
I instantly remembered who I was, my cheeks flushed, and I didn't say anything more. Sitting at the desk, my eyes were straight, my heart was blank, and I looked through the pages of the book in my hand, but I didn't read a word at all. There is always a figure that unconsciously recurs in my mind, that person is tall and mighty, handsome, and every time I think of this, my heart will flutter. "Is that him? I asked in my own heart, could it be that I fell in love with this Kyoto hero? No, no, he is a prince, and he has great military achievements, the girl he must like is a beautiful girl and looks handsome...... Suddenly, my heart surged, yes, I also have such qualifications, am I not the woman everyone wants to marry now?
Seeing that the beauty of Kyoto Bai Duxue has passed the year of Ti, everyone in the capital who has a little family background has come to ask for marriage, even if it is the three sons of Yunnan Wangfu who are thousands of miles away, they have personally come to the door to ask for marriage, but my eldest lady, actually refused one by one, the reason is even simpler, "I am still young, and I have just passed the age of Ti, I am not clear about family things, I don't know how to teach each other three principles and five constants, three from four virtues, and I don't know how to teach each other husband and children, and the couple is harmonious" In this way, it is also to block back these people who seek marriage.
In fact, among these rich and noble gates, Wei Rui, the son of King Jingfu, Zhao Hanxin, the eldest son of Xiangguo, and Liu Chun, the only son of Shangqing Liu Mu, are the best. The prince Wei Rui is good at archery and archery, although he is only 18 years old, he has already made 2 military exploits; Zhao Hanxin is more good at poetry and singing, and is a well-known romantic talent in Beijing, and even the most prestigious Yanyunlou courtesan in Kyoto will adapt his poems into tunes and play. And this Shangqing's only son is the most special, poetry and singing are not his strengths, and he is not good at archery and horse riding, but the only thing he is best at is scheming, flattery, and flattery. It is precisely because of this that such a person with no expertise is actually a popular figure around the emperor. It's okay for me to reject others, but this character who is used to tricks has eaten such a closed door, and he naturally holds a grudge. It's nothing on the face, but in my heart I hate me so much that I can't wait to grab it and crush my bones and ashes.
On the one hand, both of them are powerful people in the court, and they never take it to heart when they offend others, and on the other hand, at this time, the Northern Wei Dynasty actually sent envoys to talk about peace and kinship. They are all powerful people in the country, so naturally they want to go to the palace more often to discuss good policies.
But who would have thought that it was the Northern Wei Dynasty's harmony that there was a huge conspiracy lurking.
But I don't care about these things in the court, but ......" suddenly there was another inexplicable loss in my heart, a prince like him was appointed by the emperor for him, and he is not the same as the noble sons in the ordinary family, although I am beautiful, lively and lovely, I ask myself if the woman does not let the eyebrows, but it may not be the type he likes, maybe he will prefer a gentle and virtuous woman, who does not ask about the world? In this way, the rain in my heart unconsciously turned over and the rain came to mind.
On the main hall, it can be said that it is very lively, the envoys of the Northern Wei Dynasty who meet today are the second grade of the Great Wei Dynasty, this person is a humble gentleman, with a graceful demeanor, but the face is less treacherous, which makes people not feel good.
"Your Majesty, this time we came to the Northern Wei Dynasty to make peace, hoping to marry your country with the Qin and Jin dynasties, and the marriage of all generations" After saying that, he bowed slightly and asked His Majesty for peace, with a lofty atmosphere between his eyebrows, without a trace of humility and favor.
"Haha, don't be in a hurry, the envoys of the Northern Wei Dynasty came to my Dajin, the road is far away, I just entered Beijing yesterday, I'm afraid I haven't rested yet, have you gone to Jindu City to take a walk?" Emperor Jin laughed, did not answer the words of the Northern Wei envoy at all, and asked unhurriedly about what the Northern Wei envoy had seen and heard along the way.
"Weichen was ordered by the Great Wei Emperor to come to make peace, knowing that the mission was arduous, and he didn't dare to delay all the way, so he quickly came to the capital of Dajin Kingdom, so he didn't pay attention to the good scenery on this road." The envoy of the Northern Wei Dynasty bowed down again, his tone was already a little gentle, and he once again turned the topic back to Heshang.
"The envoys of the Northern Wei Dynasty have worked hard all the way, and I heard that the Northern Wei Dynasty is perennial and sandy, since the envoys have come to Jindu this time, they might as well have a good look." Marquis Zhenguo looked at the Northern Wei envoy with some disdain and said.
"Although our Great Wei is not as luxurious and dazzling as the Golden Capital, we are definitely a prosperous capital among the countries, and our land is vast, I am afraid that we have rare treasures there, and we have never seen them in the Great Jin." The envoys of the Northern Wei Dynasty were arrogant, and their faces were slightly provocative.
"Yes, the Northern Wei Dynasty is really blessed with vast resources and rich products! It's just that this so-called Fuyuan is vast because it lives next to the Yanbei grassland, and I heard that the reason why the envoy came to make peace this time is also because Yan and your country have been fighting continuously recently, and your country wants to join forces with us Dajin to eliminate Northern Yan! "The Marquis of Zhenguo was just about to open his mouth, and the king of Dingbei had already spoken first.
At this time, the envoys of the Northern Wei Dynasty above the court had red faces, and they were exposed by the king of Dingbei for the purpose of marriage, and there was no room to talk back, so they had to let the adults in the hall continue to question one by one.
"Okay, since Emperor Wei wants to marry my Dajin and marry for eternity, our Dajin also hopes that the border will be peaceful and the people will live and work in peace and contentment, what ...... about this marriage" Emperor Jin narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at the envoys of the Northern Wei Dynasty under the hall, paused deliberately, did not continue, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, revealing a strange smile that no one noticed.
"Since Your Majesty is a benevolent monarch, you naturally understand the intentions of my monarch, so Your Majesty ...... about this marriage" The envoy of the Northern Wei Dynasty saw that the emperor showed a slightly friendly attitude, and asked about it.
"Don't worry, the envoy of the Northern Wei Dynasty, since I have already said it, and I also hope that the border will be stable, I will not let you go all the way in vain, but this is not a trivial matter, my daughter wants to marry you in the Northern Wei Dynasty, away from this prosperous golden capital, I am really reluctant, I don't know which daughter is more suitable to marry for a while." In this way, you can settle down in the Fanwai Post House, and all the utensils will be supplied by the Inner Court Division, and I will also discuss it with my daughters, what do you think? The emperor's eyes shrunk, his eyebrows twitched slightly, and he asked in a gentle voice.
Although the envoys of the Northern Wei Dynasty are not a battlefield general, but they are the second-class ministers of the Wei State, often accompanying the emperor, good at observing words and feelings, and flattering, although the Jin Emperor seems to be asking for his opinion, in fact, he has given a clear will, and he knows that he has no intention of arguing, so he saluted His Majesty, "Yes, since Your Majesty is sympathetic to the hard work of the ministers, then we are respectful and obedient, but the Northern Wei Dynasty is far away from Dajin, and I hope that Your Majesty will make a decision as soon as possible, and we will return to the Great Wei Emperor." ”
Emperor Jin laughed, but just said "yes" in a refreshing voice.
