Chapter 120: King Jing Dong Junyue

Five days later, a team of Qi Tianhou's envoys came from southern Xinjiang to the outside of Chang'an City and camped twenty miles away.

Early in the morning, the autumn is crisp, ten miles away from Chang'an City, Fan Li and Wang Jing are wearing official robes, with ten entourage officials and a hundred guards, standing on the official road, waiting for the distant envoy.

"Lord Baofan, Lord Wang, the envoy of Qi Tianhou has already set off and will arrive in two quarters of an hour. ”

Above the official road, a guard galloped over, knelt on one knee, and reported loudly.

"Keep looking!"

The king nodded and ordered, and the guard left again to inquire about the news.

About two quarters of an hour later, a team could be faintly seen slowly advancing, and when they were very close, Fan Li nodded slightly and ordered loudly:

"Playing music!"

The musician who was waiting on the side nodded, held the strings in his hands, wrapped his fingertips around the rhythm, composed the music, played the beautiful notes, and then the flute sounded, crisp and pleasant, the flute rhymed, the flute sounded, and the sound of joy was sounded, floating on the endless official road to show welcome.

In the beautiful rhythm, the envoy team of Qi Tianhou Kingdom got closer and closer, and stopped at the place where the two were only five meters long.

Seeing this, Fan Li said loudly: "On the order of the Tang King of the Tang Kingdom, I will come to greet the big and small officials and invite King Jing to meet him!"

The voice echoed around, but no one responded, and about a minute later, at the front of the messenger team, the leader of the team was full of disdain, and said arrogantly:

"The envoy from the upper kingdom comes, but the king of the lower kingdom does not come to greet him, and sends his courtiers, who do not dismount and kneel to greet him, it is rude, so he should not bow down quickly and admit his mistake for your king!"

Fan Li's face changed slightly, and he said sharply: "This is a bad word, the king, under the orders of the sky, since they are all ordered by the sky, how can there be a difference between the big and the small, even if the country is large or small, the king of our country is also the king of heaven, and the king of your country, the same status, what you say, to reduce the status of the king is to be unjust to the king;"

"Secondly, I am a courtier, loyal to the king, from ancient times to the present, how can the courtiers salute on behalf of the king, what you say, you still don't know the duty of the minister, don't know the minister's order, don't know the king's order, it's disloyal to the king!"

"An unfaithful and unrighteous person, who has a face as a minister, and a face to envoy to our country, now, as the left minister of the Tang Dynasty, I will expel you from the country, can you accept it?"

The team leader turned pale, turned his head to look at the sedan chair, and found that there was no movement, so he breathed a sigh of relief, and said angrily:

"Messing around, with you as a mere courtier, you dare to expel the generals of the superior countries from the country, believe it or not, I will kill you now, and no one will blame me. ”

With that, his hand slowly grasped the sword, and the martial spirit momentum shrouded the vicinity, revealing the murderous opportunity.

"Hmph, you can come, I, Fan Li, am not a timid person!"

Fan Li snorted coldly, the martial spirit was violent, and the team leader was competing against each other, and there were faint signs of action.

"Stop it!"

Under the stalemate between the two, a majestic voice came from the sedan chair, attracting everyone's attention.

Fan Li also retracted his momentum, turned his eyes to the sedan chair, and saw King Jing wearing a black royal robe, walking out of the sedan chair, he held a war sword, and said indifferently:

"Give this king a face, this matter is over!"

Seeing that the other party was soft, Fan Li's face improved slightly, and he didn't want the relationship between the two to be completely stiff, so he said calmly:

"Yes, but I hope that anything that is unfriendly to our country will not happen again. ”

King Jing nodded, didn't say much, turned and stepped onto the sedan chair, like an indifferent swordsman, not like a cunning prince.

The team set sail again, because of the contradiction just now, the sound of the flute disappeared, the sound of the gong and drum also disappeared, and the team of thousands of people only had the sound of footsteps, which looked very heavy and depressing.

Whether it is Fan Li or King Jing, their hearts are very dignified, what happened just now is not so much a contradiction as a temptation, a temptation from both sides.

But the answer is not what they expected, but what they expected!

Coming to the outside of Chang'an City, King Jing poked his head out of the sedan chair and condensed the aura in his eyes, as if opening the eyes of heaven, he could faintly see the luck of the golden dragon circling, and said excitedly in his heart:

"The luck is now, the kingdom is out, and the luck here will soon return to the Qi Tianhou Kingdom!"

A city carries the luck of a country, is remembered, paid attention to, and protected and loved!

The horses' hooves continued, a team of thousands of people, only 100 people entered Chang'an City, and were arranged by Fan Li in the courtyard near the palace, the courtyard was very large, the palace pavilion, the rockery and the small lake, very exquisite.

There is also a reason for arranging here, this courtyard is in the middle of the palace, the town military palace, the Wu'anbo mansion, and the bloody clothes mansion.

There is an order in the palace, and you are not common!

If you want to see the king, you must report, especially foreign envoys, who are generally received and entertained by ministers, and enter the palace in the morning of the next day to accept the emperor's summons!

The same is true of the Tang Kingdom!

In the evening, under the auspices of Fan Li, a dinner party was held, and many ministers came to attend, giving face to King Zujing, so that they could not find any excuse for being picky.

The silk and bamboo orchestras, staggered, under the moonlight, appear calm, safe and comfortable!

But under the calm, safe, and comfortable, there are hidden scheming, conspiracy, like moonlight like residual snow, and it is cold after all.

The next day, the palace door opened, the bell rang, the court meeting was about to begin, under the leadership of Fan Li, King Jing came to the side hall of the palace of the country, without the king's call, he could not leave.

Even if he is the prince of Houguo, not so much!

The ministers stepped into the hall one after another, and when the ministers were about to arrive, Li Tang walked out and sat on the throne of God.

After completing the courtesy of the monarch and the minister, Bao Zheng took the lead in reporting: "Tell the king, the clan trial is going well, the clans in the four counties near Chang'an, the evidence has been collected, and the rest of the counties, because of the distance, the officials of the various prefectures are intensively collecting!"

According to the current law of the Tang Dynasty, there are too many crimes committed by the clan to hide them at all, so it is very simple to collect evidence.

Li Tang nodded and said: "If the evidence is conclusive, you can be convicted, and there is no need to report it!"

"Yes!"

Bao Zheng nodded, retreated to the queue, and did not speak, he knew that there was still an important matter to deal with today.

"Tell the king, the envoy of Qi Tianhou is already in the side hall, do you want to summon it into the palace?"

Fan Li took a step forward and said, the loud voice echoed in the palace, shocking the spirits of all the ministers!

"Xuan!"

Li Tang said calmly.

"Xuanqi Tianhou envoy to meet you!"

A sharp voice reached the side hall, and King Jing tidied up the royal robe on his body and walked into the hall of the parliament with strong luck.

"Dong Junyue, the king of Qi Tianhou Guojing, has seen the king of Tang, and may the friendship between the two countries last forever!"
