Chapter 171: Tributary Assembly
Yun Shichang came out of the mansion and saw Jun Fenglin standing at the door.
He looked left and right, but he didn't see Yun Xiaoxiao's figure.
Yun Shichang was surprised at what kind of monarch was coming, but he found that his whole mind was on Yun Xiaoxiao's body, and he was suddenly a little vigilant.
"If you go back to the eldest prince, Xiaoxiao will shirk her poor body today and can't enter the palace with me." Yun Shichang answered Jun Fenglin's question without being humble or arrogant.
Yun Xiaoxiao has been injured several times recently, and Yun Shichang just feels that it is inappropriate for Yun Xiaoxiao not to go, and it is not as important as her body.
"How can you do it if you don't go?" Jun Fenglin frowned slightly. "I came to the will of my father, although it is a family affair of Lord Yun, my father is sympathetic to his subjects and has always attached great importance to it. Today is the triennial tributary meeting, and if your father feels that he has messed up, you should also guess the consequences. ”
Yun Shichang chuckled in his heart.
But Yun Xiao was unwell again, and Yun Shichang had a hesitant look on his face.
"Daddy, the eldest prince."
Before Yun Xiaoxiao could speak, Jun Fenglin noticed Yun Shichang behind him. Yun Xiaoxiao is dressed in goose yellow clothes, and the mink shawl is lined with Yun Xiaoxiao's lipstick and white teeth, which is bright and moving.
After the little beggar saw Jun Feng standing guard at the door, he hurriedly ran to the backyard and told Yun Xiaoxiao.
Yun Xiaoxiao was afraid that Yun Shichang would be embarrassed, so she asked Li'er to take care of it and rushed to the door. She applied a little powder, and it looked like it was a different style.
"Why did you get out?" Yun Shichang was afraid that Yun Xiaoxiao would be cold. "Is your body better?"
"It's okay." Yun Xiaoxiao smiled at Yun Shichang, he knew that Yun Shichang was so worried, so he shouldn't use this reason to prevaricate, Yun Xiao thought carefully.
"The emperor specially asked the eldest prince to pick me up, wouldn't it be difficult to say if I didn't go." Yun Xiaoxiao's eyebrows and eyes are curved when she smiles, and she is really playful and cute.
Jun Fenglin was as warm as jade, and only looked at Yun Xiao quietly a few times.
"Let's go." At the end, Jun Fenglin nodded at the two of them.
Seeing Yun Xiaoxiao enter the sedan chair with his own eyes, Jun Fenglin couldn't tell whether his mood was lighter or heavier.
Three Emperors' Mansion.
Jun Ruyu stood in the hall, and it took a while for Zhang Lanxin to be late.
finally encountered such a big banquet, Zhang Lanxin naturally dressed up. She thought that Jun Ruyu would take a few more glances because of this, but she never thought that Jun Ruyu saw Zhang Lanxin coming, and then raised her feet and walked to the door.
"Brother Yu." Zhang Lan looked disappointed, but she was still busy greeting her.
As she spoke, she held Jun Ruyu's arm tightly.
"You sit in the back." Jun Ruyu reminded while quietly avoiding Zhang Lanxin's hand.
"Two?" Zhang Lanxin suddenly became angry.
If others saw her and Jun Ruyu sitting in two sedan chairs, I don't know how to laugh at her behind her back, Zhang Lanxin was unwilling, but Jun Ruyu was resolute, and Zhang Lanxin had no choice.
Seeing that Jun Ruyu didn't get into the carriage without returning his head, Zhang Lanxin took a deep breath and held back the anger in her heart.
Because of this triennial tributary meeting, the palace is lit up with colorful lights, and those who don't know the grand momentum think it's time for the New Year.
After the palace maids and eunuchs were busy, seats and fruit cakes were placed on both sides of the huge Tenglong Palace.
"Ahem." The emperor covered his mouth with his hands, but still let the queen hear the coughing sound.
"The emperor's health is getting worse and worse." The queen gently patted the emperor on the back. "The weather is getting colder and colder, but the emperor should take care of himself and don't catch a cold anymore."
In the empty dormitory, the queen's voice was kind.
"I see." The emperor answered.
He was wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, and he was looking down to take care of his sleeves and collar.
"How's it going out there?" The emperor asked casually.
"There was an endless stream of ministers, and they were rushing to the Tenglong Palace. When the time comes, I don't know if the Tenglong Hall can still hold so many people. The queen chuckled and quipped.
The two are dressed in brocade robes of the same color, just the dragon embroidered on the emperor's body, and the queen's brocade robe is the phoenix nirvana, which means that the dragon and phoenix are auspicious.
"I could have pretended it three years ago, but how can it not be this year." The emperor chatted with the queen. "Life flies so fast, it's three years in the blink of an eye."
Push it forward, Concubine Shu is not dead, Jun Ruyu, Song Yan and Jun Shitong can often be seen in the palace, the emperor now thinks about it, and the days are getting worse and worse.
"Yes, the concubine has been with the emperor for another three years." The queen stretched out her hand and put it on the emperor's shoulder, and her tone was as gentle as water.
"Ahem."
As soon as the queen's words fell, the emperor coughed fiercely again.
I didn't have time to ask the emperor how he was, and the emperor coughed as if his internal organs were about to spit out of his mouth.
"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?" The queen frowned tightly and looked worried.
"It's okay, I'm okay." The emperor shook his head again and again.
He was flustered, and for some reason, he always felt that something big was happening.
The emperor said, got up and was about to go outside the palace.
With a "plop", the emperor was dizzy, and his legs were paralyzed and fell to the ground.
He touched the table, and the tea cup vase on it was all shattered, and the sound was deafening, causing the palace maid guarding outside the door to hurry in to check.
"I'm fine, I'm fine." The emperor was babbling in pieces, and his expression was extremely panicked.
The queen was pinched by the emperor and her arm hurt, and she looked up and yelled at the eunuch and palace maid to retreat.
"The emperor just accidentally tripped and fell, it's no big deal." The queen casually found a reason for the emperor.
In fact, the emperor's heart was aching at this time, and he wanted to die immediately.
There are only two left in the palace, the emperor and the queen.
"Your Majesty, the concubine helped you to lie on the bed." The queen gently comforted the emperor, and as she spoke, she pulled the emperor's arm hard.
"I said I'm fine." The emperor tried his best to throw the queen away, but the queen was firmly dragging him and would not let go. "It's not too early, I still have to go to the Dragon Palace."
The emperor tried to get up with one hand on the table, but his legs couldn't use his strength, as if someone had been pulled out of his body, and the emperor fell to the ground again before he could stand up straight.
"Shhh
The emperor's hand happened to be pressed on the fragment, and blood flowed out for a while, which looked shocking.
"Your Majesty, you are obedient, go to the bed and lie down first, and then get up and go to the Tenglong Palace when you are better." With that, the queen dragged the emperor to the bedside.
Cold sweat broke out on the emperor's forehead, and he couldn't exert any more strength, so he could only let the queen drag him away.
"Hello, rest." The queen carefully covered the emperor with a quilt.
A generation of monarchs has now fallen to such a point, and even the emperor himself feels embarrassed.
"Where are you going?" When the emperor saw the queen turn to leave, he immediately called out to her. "What about the wind? What is Fenglin doing? ”
"The emperor and his concubines, there must always be one who goes to the palace first, you are like this now, you can't walk half a step, how can you get to the Tenglong Palace?" The queen seemed to be smiling, and naturally she couldn't tell whether she was serious or joking.
"What do you mean by that?" The emperor is sensitive, he frowned tightly, and a pair of eyes glared at the queen.
If this was before, the queen must have been scared, but today is different.
"Feng Lin is busy dealing with banquet affairs, and when he is free, the concubine will let him come to see you." The queen is still answering the emperor's last question.
After saying that, the queen left, and the emperor clutched the quilt tightly, watching the queen's figure gradually drift away.
A mouthful of resentment was held in his chest, and the emperor couldn't help it, spitting out a pool of blood.
The cherry red quilt was suddenly stained with blood, but fortunately, the color was similar, if you didn't look closely, you wouldn't be able to see that the emperor vomited blood.
The emperor was at a loss, he hurriedly tucked the corners of the quilt, looking in a trance for fear of being discovered.
"Someone!" The emperor shouted at the top of his voice.
But in the huge dormitory, there was no response to his echo.
"Someone's coming!" The emperor's voice was raised and he shouted.
Still unheeded.
The emperor leaned his head on the head of the bed, a sense of despair swept through his body, even if he was covered with a thick quilt, the emperor still felt cold and shivered.
Yun Shichang and Yun Xiaoxiao followed Jun Fenglin to the palace, and then he had to deal with things, so he said goodbye and left.
On the way from the south gate to the Tenglong Palace, Yun Xiaoxiao really saw the world.
There is an endless stream of ministers and magnates coming and going, and those who know and don't know are mixed in. From time to time, someone came to greet Yun Shichang, and Yun Xiao wandered around by himself.
The left and right couldn't get out of this open space, so Yun Shichang went with her.
"Yun Xiaoxiao!"
Separated by a few people, Yun Xiaoxiao and Gong Wuyi looked at each other.
Gong Wuyi opened her mouth in surprise when she saw Yun Xiaoxiao, for fear that she would spit out the word "dog egg", so she hurriedly shouted Yun Xiaoxiao first, but the sound was too loud, which attracted everyone's attention.
Yun Xiao smiled wryly and pulled Gong Wuyi aside.
Today, Gong Wuyi didn't wear his conspicuous red clothes, if it weren't for the fact that he was handsome and couldn't hide it, just looking at the dress was no different from those young masters.
"Why are you here?" Yun Xiaoxiao was shocked.
This is the palace, and the tributary meeting invites all prominent families, and the palace has no clothes to travel all over the world, how can he run to the tributary conference.
"You're really an elm head." Gong Wuyi patted Yun's little head. "Since I'm not from Daxing, I must be from another country."
It was obvious that he couldn't guess his identity, and Gong Wuyi was a little suspicious that Jun Ruyu had brought a fool home.
"Are you an envoy of another country?" Yun Xiaoxiao blinked. "No, what country's envoy has you so idle."
Yun Xiaoxiao was puzzled.
“……”
Gong Wuyi listened to Yun Xiao's words and just wanted to beat her.
"I am the second prince of Zhenglan Kingdom." Gong Wuyi glanced at Yun Xiaoxiao helplessly.
"What?!" Yun Xiao screamed, and then quickly covered his mouth. She really couldn't imagine that Gong Wuyi, who lived a leisurely life on weekdays, still had this identity.
"What? Can't see it? Gong Wuyi was very puzzled, why Yun Xiaoxiao was so shocked.
"And who gave you the name of your dog?" Yun Xiaoxiao held back a smile and pretended to ask seriously.
"I'm ......!" Gong Wuyi stretched out his hand and wanted to pat Yun Xiaoxiao's head again, but when he raised his eyes, he saw Jun Ruyu's figure.
Yun Xiaoxiao saw that Gong Wuyi's reaction had changed, and she couldn't help but look back curiously at his gaze.
Zhang Lanxin held Jun Ruyu's arm and was greeting the minister.
"Second Prince, please come over for a moment."
