Chapter 505: The enemies are very red when they see each other
Su Xiaoman looked at him with pleading eyes, masking or showing his true face would not pose any trouble to Wei Yuqin, and the danger was a piece of cake for him, so he nodded and agreed to her.
He knew what she was worried about, presumably to give the enemy a surprise attack, he didn't tell her Lu Li's current situation before because he was afraid that she would act impulsively, but now Su Xiaoman calmed down, making Wei Yuqin feel that this woman must be amazing, and the enemy can still be so calm at present.
After the group rested enough in the inn, the next morning the team came to the door of the inn to wait, today Su Xiaoman put on the gold silk brocade clothes made in the Sulfur Yuan Division Workshop, bead hairpin armbands and so on are fully worn, with gold silk silk, the veil is Su Xiaoman's own embroidery of a land character, with the flower as an embellishment, it looks very golden, like the royal princess from the Sulfur Yuan Kingdom.
"Princess, the emperor is already waiting on Luanjia!"
Qingyu stood at the door, Xiao Yuan inserted the last golden hairpin into Su Xiaoman's bun, got up leisurely and said, "Let's go now!" ”
Slowly walked down from the second floor of the inn, her graceful figure, with a gold silk veil, a brocade robe, and luxurious makeup, were completely similar to Su Xiaoman's previous plain clothes, if you didn't know Su Xiaoman's identity, I am afraid that others would not be able to recognize it.
This is also the reason why Su Xiaoman did not bring pearls here, Qingyu and Xiaoyuan are both from the Sulfur Yuan country, and no one knows Canglan, and bringing the two of them is also in Su Xiaoman's plan.
Coming out of the door of the inn, Wei Yuqin looked at it and said in surprise: "Wonderful, really wonderful!" ”
There was a small phoenix behind Luan's car, and Su Xiaoman squatted down at Wei Yuqin and said, "Brother Huang is fine!" ”
Slowly sat sideways in the phoenix, traditionally speaking, emperors are sitting on the dragon, and the queen is qualified to sit on the phoenix, but Wei Yuqin felt that the usual sedan chair was not suitable for Su Xiaoman's identity in his heart, so people brought the phoenix together.
As the brigade slowly entered the palace, the battle could be said to be more noble and luxurious than the ceremonies of other countries, and the people all looked at Su Xiaoman on the phoenix along the way and discussed.
"Have you heard, this princess of the Sulfur Abyss Country is rumored to be as beautiful as a fairy!"
"Looking at her eyes, they are bright and bright, and they look like Chang'e!"
"This sulfur abyss country is rich, and the battles are much bigger than those small countries, and now we can invite the emperors of countries like sulfur abyss to participate in the state banquet, which is also enough face!"
Listening to the people chatting privately along the way, Su Xiaoman pulled a smile at the corner of his mouth, thinking that after Xue Xiuhua took control of the government, the people lived a difficult life, so he praised Sulfur Yuan, otherwise how could he have heard the people of Canglan belittle their country so much before.
Because of Wei Yuqin's coming, Chu Yu specially waited at the gate of the palace for a long time, Xue Xiuhua was dressed in gorgeous clothes, looking very luxurious, the two of them stood respectfully at the gate of the palace, watching Wei Yuqin's Luan drive slowly carry into the palace, Su Xiaoman was also curious, why the dignified emperor wanted to greet him at the door with such a low status.
Wei Yuqin wrote a letter earlier, and I don't know what was written in the letter, but the people in Canglan seem to be lazy, and many shops are not open, I don't know if it is caused by Xue Xiuhua's oppression.
"Oops, Brother Wei is finally here!"
Brother Wei? Su Xiaoman looked at the flattery on Chu Yu's face in surprise, looked at Wei Yuqin in surprise and said, "Is the imperial brother very familiar with the emperor of Canglan?" ”
Wei Yuqin's meaningful smile flashed, and he didn't open his mouth to explain, he got down from Luan and stepped forward to Chu Yu and said, "Brother Chu's state banquet is so grand this time, didn't it cost a lot of silver?" Hahaha! ”
These words seemed to poke at the pain in Chu Yu's heart, and he looked at him with an embarrassed look and said, "Let's not say anything else, how about entering the palace?" ”
Xue Xiuhua looked at Su Xiaoman on the phoenix, and felt very familiar, but he was not sure if it was Su Xiaoman, he couldn't see her appearance clearly with the veil, and the doubts in his heart were quickly dispelled by himself, Su Xiaoman is now a traitorous fugitive, how can he be the noble princess of the Sulfur Abyss Country.
Coming back to his senses, Su Xiaoman figured out one thing, that is, why did Chu Yu lick his face and give Wei Yuqin a smile, it stands to reason that Chu Yu won Wei Yuqin when he was young, and he should be arrogant when he was treated, and after entering the palace, he really understood that it was because Xue Xiuhua had lost the silver taels in the treasury without authorization, and Canglan was currently an empty shell country, and the people's hearts were lost, good ministers were imprisoned, and there were no outstanding people to give advice, which caused Canglan's current predicament.
And the only way Chu Yu could think of was to borrow money from the richest Sulfur Yuan Country to fill the emptiness of the treasury, thinking of this, Su Xiaoman couldn't help but shake his head.
For this state banquet, Chu Yu not only invited Wei Yuqin, but also Goryeo, Fanbang, and the Western Regions, as well as the lords of various states and counties.
At the banquet, Wei Yuqin, who had a distinguished status, sat in front of the hall with Chu Yu, Su Xiaoman sat on the right side of Wei Yuqin, and the others sat under the hall.
With the music of the musicians beating the drums and playing music, the dancing girls slowly danced in the hall, and there were also folk jugglers who performed next, and invited the Canglan troupe to sing a few plays.
Su Xiaoman was a little anxious, she really wanted to rescue Lu Li quickly, Xue Xiuhua wanted to ensure that no traitors infiltrated during the state banquet, and specially hid Lu Li in the side room of the banquet hall, so that he could take a good look at who came to this state banquet, but Su Xiaoman did not come.
Qingyu listened to Su Xiaoman's instructions, and quietly went to the water prison to investigate and came back to report: "Princess, Lord Lu is not in prison!" ”
As soon as the words fell, Xue Xiuhua said flatteringly: "Why doesn't the princess show her true face?" ”
Su Xiaoman didn't care about Xue Xiuhua's question, just raised his eyes slightly, looked at her arrogantly, and didn't answer without answering, which made Xue Xiuhua a little annoyed, and wanted to toast with a wine glass, because Su Xiaoman's eyes were heavily placed on the table.
The two men beside him seemed to smell the smell of gunpowder, which was too ugly in public, Wei Yuqin hurriedly explained: "Concubine Hua must not worry about Jiahe, she has been pampered and arrogant since she was a child, even if I sometimes ask, she doesn't care!" ”
"Oh? Could it be that the princess thinks that she is more delicate than the saint today? Isn't this look a loss of royal demeanor! ”
Listening to Xue Xiuhua's words, it seemed that she must teach Su Xiaoman a lesson to vent her anger, but her words did not make Su Xiaoman angry, on the contrary, she ate tea more indifferently, watched the performance in the hall, and didn't even pay attention to Xue Xiuhua with a glance.
This action made Xue Xiuhua even more annoyed, only to see her sudden action, Chu Yu was so frightened that Chu Yu immediately thought that Xue Xiuhua was going to teach the princess Jiahe in front of him a lesson, but he didn't expect Xue Xiuhua to turn around and enter the inner hall, seeing her in a hurry, Su Xiaoman immediately raised his eyes and signaled Qingyu to follow Xue Xiuhua quietly.
After a while, Xue Xiuhua didn't come out, Qingyu slowly walked out from the back of the hall, his face was a little pale, leaned over and whispered in Su Xiaoman's ear: "Princess, the location of Lord Lu has been determined, just behind the hall, that demon concubine is whipping out Lord Lu because of your ignorance!" ”
Hearing this, Su Xiaoman couldn't help pinching the wine bottle, and looked at Chu Yu with a vicious look, if it weren't for his obsession with beauty and being confused by the demon concubine, how could his husband end up like this.
But Su Xiaoman still endured until the end of the banquet, and after Chu Yu sent away the princes and envoys of other countries, only Wei Yuqin and Su Xiaoman were left in the banquet room.
"Oh, it's a pity that this state banquet is over like this!"
Saying that, Wei Yuqin got up to leave, and Chu Yu hurriedly got up and stopped: "Lord Wei is slow, this king has something important to discuss with Lord Wei!" ”
At this time, Wei Yuqin thought in his heart, you are a good guy, you finally spoke, now you have to ask me, see that I don't humiliate you!
changed his face and said, "Oh? How can the dignified lord of the country have something to discuss with me, my troops are weak, and they are completely unsuitable for adding troops to fight! ”
Wei Yuqin deliberately pulled the topic away, turned around and pretended to leave, Chu Yu, who saw it, was anxious, and hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Oh, Brother Wei, this king is not borrowing soldiers, but borrowing ......."
Speaking of this, he couldn't even open his own mouth, Xue Xiuhua, who was angry from the back of the hall, hurriedly replied: "At present, the Canglan treasury is empty, and the king wants to ask the lord of Wei to borrow five million taels of silver to fill the treasury, we are willing to exchange the city for it, or pay it off in ten years, I don't know if the lord of Wei is willing!" ”
Seeing Xue Xiuhua's arrogant appearance of wanting to borrow money, it really made Wei Yuqin very unhappy, what he wanted was for Chu Yu to speak in person, instead of pretending to be someone else's mouth, and changed his face and said: "The two monarchs speak, how can you be accosted by one of your concubines!" ”
As he spoke, he shook off his robe and strode with a feigned anger.
Chu Yu immediately gave Xue Xiuhua a look and motioned her not to speak again, but Xue Xiuhua stomped her feet coquettishly and said: "Your Majesty, look at him, if you don't borrow, you won't borrow, why do you want to murder the concubine, the concubine didn't do anything wrong, the concubines are all for the good of the canglan, and they are a little anxious!" ”
A coquettish tone made Wei Yuqin really listen to a good show, this woman's flattery is not ordinary, seeing her tears falling from her cheeks, Chu Yu immediately felt distressed, and said cheekily: "Brother Wei, now only you can help me with this vicissitude!" Xiaohua, she is young and ignorant, don't be surprised! ”
In such a low voice, even the king no longer calls himself the king, and directly changes his name to me, so that Wei Yuqin listened to it for a while, but this is far from enough, he has not yet sent out all the insults he suffered when he was young, and said: "Oh, Brother Chu, I don't lack this city, I say that it will be ten years back, I am afraid that I will not have that life!" ”
The fan covered the smile on the corner of Wei Yuqin's mouth, Su Xiaoman looked at Chu Yu who was low in a low voice, and Xue Xiuhua, who was pretending to be delicate, she knew that the show was about to begin.
