Chapter 157: Paying tribute in turn

"The prince is polite, this official is a first-class official department, Zheng Cheng." Although I don't know how he has the courage to come out and stir up trouble on his own today, but in terms of Zheng Cheng's usual personality, he also likes to be in the limelight.

Especially after feeling that the surrounding vassal kings came to visit and were extremely respectful to the emperor, they felt that they must be afraid of the power of their own dynasty, and now they must be thinking of the law to please the ministers of the court, and their own identity can be superior in front of these princes.

But all this is just his wishful thinking, in the eyes of smart people, if the court really confronts these vassal kings, who will win and who will lose, is still an unknown certainty.

Now although the vassal kings are all concerned about the vast land and wealth of the imperial court, but both sides are watching, if something really goes wrong, with the courage of Su Yutian, who is now on the throne, with the help of Su Jingye, the first to suffer the disaster will definitely be this group of Wenchen who can only speak cool words.

However, there is also an advantage to the vassal king's coming to the court, the vassal kings want to inquire about the reality of the imperial court, and because the imperial court wants to save face in front of the vassal king, Su Yutian will not do anything to his ministers for a while, but this is a good time for his own people.

Regarding Zheng Cheng's self-made proposition, Li Wensong said that he was very happy to hear it, as long as he said a few words in the future, the vassal kings would understand who was really in charge in this court.

The people present had their own ghosts, and King Dongge took a look, although he couldn't find out what they were thinking, but he could also guess seven, seven, eight, eight. Fortunately, King Dongge has always regarded himself as a righteous man and a gentleman, and he still won't pay attention to Li Wensong, who encouraged Zheng Cheng to come forward.

"It turned out to be a Wenchen Shangshu, and this king is disrespectful." King Dongge bowed his hand very politely, Zheng Cheng thought he had gained face, and waved his hand at him very politely, saying that he didn't have to, but he didn't expect him to suddenly raise his eyes, and the words changed.

"The so-called hearing the Tao has a sequence, and there is a specialization in the art industry, Lord Zheng has never understood the affairs of our generals, and he dares to boast again, this courage really makes this king sigh."

"It's just two animals, how can it be involved in civil and military affairs, although the official is not good at martial arts, but for the matter of shooting with arrows and arrows, he is still complacent, but I am afraid that the prince is too sure of his words, right?"

The rank of the vassal king is still much worse than that of the orthodox prince of the imperial court, to put it bluntly, he is just a big official with his own fiefdom, and Zheng Cheng feels that his identity is much more noble than him, so he doesn't speak politely.

"The generals are more pragmatic, and the civil servants are vain." King Dongge's faint two words made everyone in the palace speechless, especially Zheng Cheng, who bore the brunt of the matter, and couldn't find any other reason to refute.

Seeing that the people in the hall were silent, Su Yutian couldn't help but want to laugh, but he felt a little embarrassed in his heart, after all, because of his own body, he didn't know much about martial arts.

Although King Dongge's words only refer to the cowardly minister, it is inevitable that he will be uncomfortable when he listens to it.

"These two gray eagles were captured by this king himself, and they have lived on the top of the highest mountain in our Dongge grassland since they were born, and as for the color of their fur that Lord Zheng has always disliked, it is because the ash on the top of our mountain is this color."

"Only by flying and living on the top of the mountain for more than ten years can the coat color be dyed so vicissitudes, what Lord Zheng looks down on the most is the mark of the highest honor on these two gray eagles."

Su Jingye also heard a lot about the myth of Dongge Grassland when he was a child, and although King Dongge's words were suspected of adding fuel and vinegar, the meaning was still right.

Saying that, King Dongge took a step out, got down from his position and walked to the center of the main hall, and bowed to Su Yu Tianxing very respectfully, which caught him off guard.

"This king only uses these two gray eagles to talk about his heart, in order to hope that my emperor can spread his wings and fly high like these two eagles, the sky and the earth are big, it is not the king's land, the shore of the land, and the king's ministers."

Although this is an ancient saying, it still sounds very exciting, and it also expresses the submission of King Donggo to our dynasty from the side.

Sometimes two simple sentences can move people's hearts more than bells and whistles, and Su Yutian can't help but feel a little touched, but he has not been confused by this arrogance.

"There is another thing, Your Majesty must also see it, this pair of gray eagles is a male and a female, the eagle is a loyal bird, there is only one companion in life, in the grassland is mostly used to express the heart of belonging, if Your Majesty has a beloved person can give this gray eagle, so that the two will be able to stay together for a long time."

Hearing this, Su Yutian was moved to almost stand up, but he forcibly suppressed this joy, put his hands behind his back, coughed lightly, and said in a deep voice: "I have accepted the kindness of King Dongge, and all the people in the world are my people, and I will treat everyone equally." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty, Your Majesty is blessed with all the heavens, no wonder he is the true son of heaven and earth." Speaking of which, it can be regarded as satisfying the purpose of King Dongge's coming over this time.

This King Dongge has always only heard that he has a unique plan, and he never thought that he would face Su Yutian, who was at least two rounds younger than him, and he could blush and not beat when he said a set of sycophants, which really made Su Jingye a little admired.

Thinking that when he wanted Su Yutian to relax his defense, he deliberately said so many words against his will, but he reaped the opposite result, which was really a different fate.

And King Dongge swore that the two gray eagles he had personally hunted were really common in the grassland. To the east of the Dongge grassland, there is a group of peaks called Tianfeng, and every man on the grassland will go up the mountain to hunt a gray eagle as his coming-of-age ceremony.

However, the people here in the capital are not knowledgeable, they only know that the eagle is fierce, and the king of Dongge is just right to bluff people, and there is no need to dismantle the stage.

When Su Jingye sighed, he suddenly felt that his sleeve was being pulled, and turned his head to look, but found that Jiang Liuyu seemed to be drunk, slightly pursed his eyes, and leaned over to him.

"You said that Your Majesty was so excited, could it be that he already has a heart? There are three thousand in this harem, if anyone becomes his heart, it will be really unlucky. ”

It turned out that she was looking for an excuse to ask herself, but the posture she pretended to be was really a little confusing, so that Su Jingye almost couldn't tell the difference.

Holding Jiang Liuyu's shoulders very cooperatively, Su Jingye lowered his voice and explained in a low voice, "It's none other than His Majesty's original wife, the current Empress Yuan Wenjing." ”

"As for you saying that you are unlucky, the queen is in charge of the phoenix seal in the harem, and her power is monstrous, under one person, above ten thousand people, in addition to being not in good health, it can be regarded as a blessing, right?"

"No wonder I didn't see the queen on His Majesty's right hand today, it turned out that she was sick again." At the celebration banquet when he came back from the previous battle against the King of Nanyang, Jiang Liuyu was fortunate to see the queen's face, and she was really a beauty with sad eyebrows and eyes, like clouds and water.

If no one said it, how could Jiang Liuyu dare to believe that the queen with the posture of Sister Lin sitting high above was actually a heroic martial arts woman in the mouths of everyone. This is how much sadness it has gone through to make so many words of sorrow accumulate between the eyebrows of a lively woman.

"That's what you men think, you never understand how women feel." Jiang Liuyu sighed, although she said that she was living a happy life now, the woman's heartiness still made her wonder if she would end up in the same state of mind as Yuan Wenjing in the future.

"Hate Your Majesty is an emperor, and many times he is helpless." Su Jingye also felt a little sorry for them, but assured Jiang Liuyu very seriously, "But fortunately, we won't do this." ”

"Hmm." While the two were talking, the prince of Beiding offered his tribute, which was a snowy white wolf of almost the same height.

It looks much more beautiful than the gray eagle sent by King Dongo, but the meaning is still similar, so there is nothing worth scrutinizing.

As for the King of Xiguang, who has always been mediocre, this time he spent a lot of money to make someone create a jade unicorn with a full body of ice jade. The unicorn is a divine beast that shocks the world in the Great Heavenly Empire, and this carving is not perfunctory for ordinary people.

Su Yutian nodded seriously, this was the best tribute he had received tonight. As for those two kinds of living creatures, although they are precious, they can't live for a lifetime, and keeping them there has become a burden.

"King Xiguang has a heart, I must tell them to stay in the palace and watch it every day."

"Thank you Your Majesty for your appreciation, it can be regarded as a blessing for this unicorn to be loved by Your Majesty." King Xiguang looked a little taciturn, only said a few words so plainly and politely, and then quietly returned to his position.

And the rest is only King Xiping who has not yet paid tribute, and the eyes of everyone present are invariably projected on King Xiping, who is still drinking happily.

"Dare to ask King Xiping, several other princes have already offered treasures, did King Xiping bring any treasures?" After a while, King Xiping still went his own way, and did not pay any attention to the gaze cast by outsiders.

The officials looked at each other, and in the end, Li Wensong stood up and asked loudly.

"Ah, you say treasures?" After Li Wensong asked, the envoy beside King Xiping quietly pushed him, which made him sober up a little.

It seemed that King Xiping was already slightly drunk, he shook his head a little impatiently, looked at it, and after seeing what was going on, he stood up and bowed to Su Yutian very apologetically.

"I'm sorry for my emperor, this king has lost his temper, so he will laugh. If it is said that the treasure is offered, this king is naturally prepared, but my offering of treasure, in such a bright hall, can not be seen clearly, if Your Majesty does not mind, can you extinguish all the candles in the hall? ”
