Chapter 79: Gentleness
The emperor sat on the top of the main hall, his eyes were serious, and when he saw the two of them entering, he immediately waved his hand without waiting for a salute: "You two have come just in time, come here, there is something to discuss with you." ”
"Brother Huang, please speak." Nan Wuyang asked, and Liu Qianyu bowed slightly with Jin Feng.
"That's the case, the monarch of Beiyue has died, I want the two of you to go and mourn for me, it just so happens that General Jin is also going back to Beiyue, so it's better for the three of you to set off together."
As soon as the words came out, Jin Feng immediately thanked him respectfully: "Minister, the ancestor Beiyue thanked His Majesty the Emperor for his attention. ”
"General Jin doesn't have to be too sad, birth, old age, sickness and death are just natural laws, after returning to Beiyue, please also ask me to comfort the new emperor."
"Yes, the minister must bring it." Jin Feng said, and bowed in the direction of Liu Qianwen and the others, "The minister is eager to return to the country, I don't know if I can leave today." ”
Liu Qianwen stepped forward and responded: "Where is the envoy, in this case, the prince and I will go back to the house to pack up and go with you." ”
It just so happened that it was her excuse to go to Beiyue.
"Good! That's it! The emperor waved his hand, "In addition, in order to comfort the new emperor, I will give Princess Jin Yuyan to Wuyang as a concubine, free of all etiquette, and enter the palace directly, I am tired, you can go." ”
What the?! The three people present were dumbfounded, Liu Qianwen was about to speak, but Nan Wuyang stopped him, he looked at Liu Qianwen, shook his head gently, and there was a dark color in his eyes.
Liu Qianwen's heart pinched fiercely, didn't he want that princess? Why don't you say a word now?
After the three of them resigned to the emperor, they withdrew from the main hall, and Liu Qianwen was absent-minded all the way, thinking about Fang Cai Nan Wuyang's reaction.
He didn't even object to that marriage, she wanted to speak, and he stopped her, does Nan Wuyang like that Jin Yuyan?
After the three of them came out of the imperial city, they first went back to the house to pack their bags, and then gathered at the gate of the city.
On the way, Jin Feng sat in a carriage alone, Liu Qianwen and Nan Wuyang shared a carriage, and the rest of the guards and servants followed behind the convoy.
In the carriage, Nan Wuyang was closing his eyes to recuperate, but from his frowning sword eyebrows, Liu Qianwen knew that he was thinking about things, and put aside the previous unhappiness, Liu Qianyu opened her mouth.
"Lord Wang, you said that the monarch of Beiyue died this time, but what human reasons could there be?"
She asked very vaguely, she didn't know much about Beiyue, but the death of a monarch would make people can't help but guess no matter what.
After being silent for a while, Nan Wuyang slowly opened his eyes, "The monarch of Beiyue is very old, and he was already in poor health in the early years, and his death should be regarded as providence. ”
Hearing this, Liu Qianwen stopped talking, since it was the will of heaven, then their journey to Beiyue would be much better.
In fact, Liu Qianwen was not in the state because of Jin Yuyan's matter, otherwise, she would definitely hear the meaning of the word 'should' that Nan Wuyang said.
At this time, the convoy suddenly stopped, and Liu Qianwen lifted the curtain to see that it was Jin Feng who stopped the carriage.
Nan Wuyang was still sitting on the carriage with his eyes closed, Liu Qianwen didn't want to disturb him, so she got out of the carriage by herself, walked over, and asked, "Jin Feng, why did you stop suddenly?" ”
"There's a team of men who follow us all the time." Jin Feng's voice was low, and his gaze was still lingering in the small forest in front of him.
Liu Qianwen suppressed the surprise in her heart, and also pretended not to care and said, "Do you know who it is?" ”
"From your country." In just four words, Liu Qianwen immediately had an answer in her heart.
can know their whereabouts, and track them all the way at any cost, except for King Jin Yu and King Chu, she really can't think of anyone else.
"I see." After Liu Qianwen finished speaking, she turned around and walked towards the carriage, her face was normal, and there was no abnormality in the slightest.
It wasn't until she got into the carriage that she relayed Jin Feng's words to Nan Wuyang, and at this time, Nan Wuyang, who had been closing her eyes, slowly opened her eyes and sneered: "I can't help it so soon." ”
Before the words landed, there was a sudden noisy killing sound in the woods, but Liu Qianwen lifted the curtain of the car and looked, only to see the trees on the side of the road shaking abnormally, and the leaves fell one after another.
The sound didn't last long, and when it was finally quiet outside, Nan Wuyang took Liu Qian's hand and got down from the carriage, and Du Zhen appeared in front of the two of them in a strong suit.
"Lord Wang, Concubine Liu, the assassin has committed suicide by poisoning." Du Zhen said, handing over a token.
Liu Qianwen took the token and took a closer look, but found that it was actually the token of the King of Chu, "Lord Wang, you see, it is the person of the King of Chu." ”
Hearing this, Nan Wuyang sneered, "Send someone to send a message to King Jin Yu, if he is restless, don't blame me for not treating him as an elder." ”
As the words landed, Du Zhen turned and left, and the convoy continued to move forward.
I don't know if Nan Wuyang's words played a role, and since then, they have not encountered any obstacles, and the convoy quickly traveled to a small town on the border of Beiyue.
"It's getting late, why don't we stop and repair first, and then set off for the palace tomorrow." Liu Qianwen proposed, she was a little overwhelmed by the day and night of the journey.
Jin Feng looked at the direction of Beiyue Imperial City from a distance, and did not refuse, anyway, he had reached the boundary of Beiyue. 59 Books
He quickly led the group to find a post house to rest, and after arranging accommodation, he locked himself in his room.
After dinner, Liu Qianwen took the plan and knocked on Jin Feng's door.
"Come in," Jin Feng's voice came from inside the house, and it didn't sound unusual, and Liu Qianwen pushed the door in.
She found that the food sent by Xiao Er, Jin Feng seemed to be untouched and placed on the table as it was.
"Why don't you eat?" Liu Qianwen asked.
"No appetite." When Jin Feng saw that it was her, a smile tugged at the corner of his mouth, but the smile didn't reach the bottom of his eyes at all, "Is there something wrong with Concubine Liu?" ”
"You can call me Qianwen, after all, we are also partners now." Liu Qianwen smiled slightly.
"I'm here to discuss business with you." As she spoke, she handed over the plan in her hand.
"Since we want to cooperate in opening a mall, first of all, we can't ignore the problem of cargo transit, along the way, I chose a few addresses as transit stations, you see which location is more suitable."
Jin Feng took the plan, but he just flipped through it casually, then put it back again, and said indifferently: "I'll leave everything to you to deal with, I believe that your vision will not be wrong." ”
Liu Qianwen was about to say something, but found that Jin Feng's eyes seemed to be faintly flowing with sadness.
I think it's because of the monarch of Beiyue.
"The death of the monarch of Beiyue is really sad, but birth, old age, sickness and death, everything has a destiny, don't be too sad."
"Concubine Liu is really discerning, yes, the old monarch was already unwell when I went to Zhongzhou before I left, and now what I am most worried about is His Royal Highness the Second Prince."
Liu Qianwen didn't know much about Beiyue, but she only heard that the old monarch of Beiyue only had three sons, among them, his favorite was the eldest prince Jin Yue.
In fact, the second prince was discussed as a prince very early, but because the eldest prince was still there, the minister's proposal was shelved, and the emperor reprimanded many ministers for this.
After all, if any emperor is still alive, the ministers will not be happy if they want to discuss the prince, which is tantamount to cursing him to death.
"Now, the eldest prince is not here, everything is handled by the second prince, Concubine Liu, you and King An will enter the palace tomorrow, if there is anything offended by Prince Jin Rui at that time, please bear with Concubine Liu." After speaking, he was about to salute like Liu Qianwen.
"Don't be polite, don't worry, my temper is not so bad." Liu Qianwen inexplicably felt a little funny.
Why is Jin Feng worried about these things, does she seem to be a person who will be angry with children?
But if she could predict tomorrow, she would definitely not hesitate to retract this sentence.
The next day, as soon as dawn and the group set off towards the imperial city.
Liu Qianyu came to Beiyue for the first time, and couldn't help but be very curious, all the way she lifted the curtain to look out, and asked Nan Wuyang if she didn't understand anything, and Nan Wuyang also answered them one by one.
Jin Feng is a courtier of Beiyue, and the first thing he did when he entered the palace was to change into filial piety clothes and go to the palace of the old monarch to kowtow and mourn.
Liu Qianwen and Nan Wuyang are from other countries, and they can't see the old monarch's face, so they are arranged to live in a courtyard and wait for Jin Rui's reception.
In order to show respect for the old monarch, when Liu Qianwen was resting and waiting in the house, she still changed into a white dress, while Nan Wuyang was wearing a Xuan costume.
In the afternoon, someone came to pass the decree to lead the two into the hall, above the main hall, Jin Feng was standing at the front of the main hall, next to him was a young man, seeing him sitting in the center of the hall in filial piety clothes, I think it should be Jin Rui.
"I've seen Prince Jin Rui." Nan Wuyang stood straight.
Nan Wuyang is the emperor's brother, Beiyue Guojun is the same level as the emperor, Jin Rui is the son of Beiyue Guojun, Nan Wuyang is naturally a generation older than Jin Rui.
This number of courtesies is not wrong, but Jin Rui never said a word, and the atmosphere of the entire hall sank instantly.
Jin Feng stood aside and coughed at the right time, "Your Royal Highness Jin Rui, King An came to mourn for the old monarch, and I hope Your Highness will not be too sad." ”
As he spoke, Jin Feng took out the national credential that Nan Wuyang handed over to him from his sleeve and presented it to him.
But he didn't want the national letter to be handed in front of him, but he was pushed away by Jin Rui, and looked down with his gaze, and it fell on Liu Qianwen's body below without reservation.
"Concubine Liu, but is it the side concubine of King An? It's beautiful. As soon as the words came out, the air pressure in the entire hall instantly dropped.
Nan Wuyang's face suddenly turned cold, thinking that if he was on the battlefield now, I am afraid that the person who said this would have already fallen to the ground.
Liu Qianwen stood in His Royal Highness, her apricot eyes were full of cold light, if it weren't for Jin Feng's face, she really wanted to go up and slap this Jin Rui, who didn't know the height of the sky.
"Prince Jin Rui, although I am the concubine of King An, but I am also a distinguished guest of other countries, on the orders of His Majesty of our country, I came to Beiyue to condole, please be respectful before the main hall."
Liu Qianwen's tone was obviously angry, and Rao was able to hear it even if he was stupid.
