Chapter 374: Hating Iron Doesn't Make Steel

Seeing that the prince in front of him couldn't make a decision for a long time, several people looked at each other in confusion, and finally couldn't help but ask.

"Lord Wang, is there anything wrong with this?"

"This ......" received someone, but didn't attend the banquet? If Huang Ama knew, would he blame him for doing things badly?

Xie Zhengyu's hesitant appearance, not to mention the envoys of the leading country, even the guards around him couldn't stand it. The visitor is a guest, so what is there to hesitate about? Besides, the few people in front of me don't have a few days to rest, I'm afraid they won't be able to.

Even if the emperor knows, what else can he say? It's already good that they can send someone to enter the palace with them now!

The guard hurriedly stepped forward and reminded: "Lord, it's not early now, why don't you do what the envoys say?" If the emperor has other meanings, let's come out to pick up people again, and it should be too late. What do you think? ”

Xie Zhengyu saw that everyone said this, and under the pressure of the envoys, he could only bow his head and say, "Okay!" Then so be it, please enter the palace with this king, and the rest of the people, naturally someone will take them to the post station and settle down. ”

Of course, a few people were overjoyed, but their bodies did not allow it, so they could only support and salute.

Xie Tianrui really waited for Xie Zhengyu and the others at the gate of the palace, looking at the outfits of several people, it could be seen on the faces of the people in foreign costumes that they were very haggard. He raised an eyebrow, it seems that there will be a reception banquet next. After all, if you look at people, you will know that these envoys who said they were going to attend the Queen Mother's birthday banquet should not have the strength to participate in today's birthday banquet.

It's okay, the Queen Mother's birthday banquet was already said to be a family banquet, so why bother to come back so many times without four or six.

"Why are you here?" Xie Zhengyu asked very dissatisfied.

He was still secretly thanking Tianrui just now, that kid really knew each other very well, and obediently didn't show up. I didn't expect people to be waiting at the gate of the palace! You don't want to sit back and enjoy it, do you?

"The third prince is fine, if he can, Tianrui doesn't want to be here. Tianrui has no intention of taking the credit of the prince, but if the prince goes to see the emperor alone with the envoys, he may not be able to say it in front of the emperor! What do you think? Xie Tianrui said with the old god here.

Left and right, he doesn't want to make a contribution, but he doesn't really care what the emperor thinks. If it weren't for the emperor's special request, he would be quietly waiting for the birthday banquet in the evening, why bother talking to Xie Zhengyu about these things.

The envoy didn't know what was going on between the two, he only knew that he hoped to see the Son of Heaven as soon as possible, and then go back to rest as soon as possible. God knows, the one thing he wants to do most now is take a shower, eat something good, and get some sleep.

"Lord Wang?"

Xie Zhengyu heard the voice of the envoy of the leading country, and he didn't want to say anything to Xie Tianrui, so he snorted coldly, and took the envoy into the palace to meet the emperor Ama.

Xie Tianrui didn't care, he touched his nose, and then followed at the end of the line very calmly. Left and right, as long as the emperor sees his figure, let the emperor feel at ease. The rest, what the emperor should do, can't be tossed on his head.

"Lord Steward, please go in and inform Huang Ama that the envoy of the consular country has arrived."

The chief eunuch replied and glanced at the person quietly

After discovering Xie Tianrui, the last Xiaojun King standing, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly walked in.

The third prince himself is not conscious, but he, who is by the emperor's side, knows it. Don't look at this matter, the emperor handed it over to the third prince to do, in fact, it was because the little county king also arranged it, so he was relieved. If it weren't for the little county king who took over this errand, it is really hard to say whether it would be handed over to the third prince in the end.

The chief eunuch had just gone in to report that the emperor immediately received those people.

Xie Zhengyu became particularly enthusiastic after that, as if he was eager to show himself in front of the emperor, and he had to suppress Xie Tianrui everywhere he spoke.

Xie Tianrui is not annoyed, after all, he is not a person who is good at dealing with these people, since Xie Zhengyu likes to perform, then let Xie Zhengyu behave well, he happens to be happy and relaxed, why not.

And the emperor ignored Xie Zhengyu, who was talking eloquently on the side, and glanced at Xie Tianrui, who was hanging high on the side, with some dissatisfaction. This stinky boy! Actually playing tricks in front of me!

"I heard that the Central Plains is a country of etiquette, and we have just come to your country, and we have been treated so politely by the three princes, and we are really very grateful. If it weren't for the tiring travel over the past few days, our bodies would have been really unfortunate, and we would have replaced the sincerity of our emperor and celebrated the birthday of the empress dowager of your country. Fortunately, we have already prepared a generous gift for the Queen Mother of your country. ”

The emperor was still thinking about how to clean up Xie Tianrui, so he didn't hear it clearly. When everyone present was waiting for the emperor to reply, the emperor was actually in a daze.

The chief eunuch smiled awkwardly, and then quickly whispered in the emperor's ear: "Your Majesty? Emperor? ”

The emperor came back to his senses, as if nothing had happened just now, and said directly: "Your country has a heart!" ”

The envoys of the leading country were not very sure whether the emperor who had just taken the lead was in a daze or thinking. But I didn't think too much about it, so I just let people lift things up.

When Xie Tianrui heard the movement, he gradually stopped, and then raised his eyes slightly, and in front of him was a bottle of white jade flower bottles, hundreds of red agate necklaces, and all kinds of gold and silver jewelry.

Xie Zhengyu on the side looked straight at him even more angrily, although he was also born in the royal family, and he didn't have to worry about food and clothing since he was a child, but he rarely saw the treasures of the Western Regions.

It's just that Xie Zhengyu's reaction was slightly bigger than everyone's reaction, and he didn't realize that his reaction had been seen by everyone in the hall.

The emperor hated the iron and steel, and looked at the third child who was still trapped in the gold, silver and jewelry and did not come back to his senses, it is said that the third child is the queen's sister-in-law, who grew up in front of the queen since he was a child, and he should have seen a lot of good things.

Why does it look like he has fallen into the eyes of money now, and it makes people see jokes and don't tell them. People who don't know still think that he is so poor in a big country, and the dignified prince of the dynasty is actually like he has never seen the market.

"Ahem, ahem!" The emperor inadvertently signaled, but unfortunately Xie Zhengyu didn't understand it.

Xie Tianrui on the side really couldn't stand it: "Hey! Come back to your senses! He shook his head speechlessly, don't you want to see what kind of occasion this is?

Even if you haven't seen such a good thing, you don't have to make such a gesture to be ashamed, right? scold

Oh, if the throne finally falls into the hands of such a person, it will definitely cause wars from other countries. Because it's hard to convince the public!

Xie Zhengyu suddenly came back to his senses, and lowered his head a little shyly, not daring to look at the emperor above, for fear of seeing disappointed eyes from inside.

Xie Tianrui has actually seen this, thanks to Tang Yining. You must know that when Tang Yining made hairpins for the Queen Mother before, the jade material on the hairpin was a rare red blood jade in the Western Regions.

This time, the territory turned out to be made of red blood jade with so many strings of agate stone necklaces, thinking that even if they were rich in it, I am afraid it would cost a lot of money.

It's just that the Queen Mother's birthday banquet came to curry favor with such fanfare, Xie Tianrui really didn't know what medicine they were selling in their gourd. Moreover, their behavior is really suspicious.

Could it be that the leaders want to take this opportunity to make friends with foreign countries in their Central Plains? However, this is unlikely. If you really want to form diplomatic relations, you shouldn't make friends in this way of the Queen Mother's birthday.

Others may not know, but Xie Tianrui still knows, the emperor has always had the idea of expanding the territory, if it weren't for the age, maybe the emperor still wants to dominate the world.

The emperor had already coveted these small border countries, and he also felt that they could have the same thoughts as him anytime and anywhere, and covet his land.

In the emperor's heart, those people are not only reckless and ignorant, but also ignorant. The emperor had sent envoys to have diplomatic relations with them before, but unfortunately, they were not convinced.

Why did the Queen Mother's birthday banquet suddenly change its attitude?

Just when Xie Tianrui was thinking, the envoy of the leading country had finished talking to the emperor, and the emperor said lightly: "Tianrui, you can send this envoy to the post station to rest." ”

When Xie Zhengyu heard this, he subconsciously stood up, bowed and said, "Huang Ama, since this matter was handed over to Erchen and Tianrui to do together, why not hand over this matter to Erchen to do?" After all, Tianrui was too lazy to go to the city gate just now, and he probably didn't want to go to the post station. If not, the son will send the envoy to the post station. ”

At this time, outsiders were still there, and Xie Zhengyu couldn't wait to give Xie Tianrui eye medicine in front of the emperor, but what he didn't know was that his approach not only did not have the effect he wanted, but also was disliked by his emperor Amma.

After all, for the emperor, the dignity of the country is above all else!

"Enough! I will do whatever I say! When will it be your turn to point fingers in front of me. Do I still have to ask you how to arrange it? The emperor said coldly.

Xie Tianrui really didn't want to know too much, so he hurriedly bowed and said, "Weichen has the order!" Then he looked at the envoy of the consular country and said, "Please! ”

The envoy of the consular country saluted the emperor: "I will retire first, please forgive the emperor!" ”

"Walk slowly! Have a good rest, I will set up a reception banquet for you in a few days, and then we will have a good chat! The emperor said with a smile.

The envoy of the leading country hurriedly answered, and then saw that the little county king had already walked out, so he hurriedly followed.

After the emperor saw the figure of the envoy of the leading country disappearing at the door of the imperial study, he said angrily.

"Get on your knees!"
