175. Open the door to welcome distant guests
Ruru came as scheduled according to the date on the national book, from the beginning of entering Yecheng has attracted much attention, Gao Wanyue they stepped into the border from the day they stepped into the border, they sent eyeliner to report the news in real time, after entering Yecheng is even more powerful, it can attract the whole city to stop and watch, for a time thousands of empty alleys.
Ruru, known as Rui Rui and Worm in history, called himself Rouran, a descendant of Donghu Miao, surnamed Yuwen Lu, now lives in the Khan Deng Shuzi, has no children and no daughters under his knees, and can only pass the stepbrother's daughter Anaro as a princess, but the Turkic wooden pole Khan is a jin, and he wants to marry but was refused, and he is angry and leads the army to defeat the western Rouran, so Uncle Deng has to send envoys to Northern Qi this time to ask for help.
"What a nasty gaze!" Princess Analo of Ruru was riding on a horse, looking at the eyes of the people of Yecheng looking at her and complaining,
"Calm off, princess." The envoy sent this time is an old envoy who is also a highly respected existence, and he also knows the importance of coming to sue for peace this time, so he needs to endure and endure anything he encounters.
They are different from the women of the Central Plains, they have grown up on horseback since they were children, and the folk customs are simple and bold, they don't care about those red tape, women can also go out to show their heads, just like men can be chic and wanton, unlike this Central Plains, unmarried women must abide by the three from the four virtues, and the rules are to be treated in the boudoir.
And their princess, Her Royal Highness, is free and easy by nature, hates restraint the most, has a distinct personality, and does not know how difficult it is to come to seek peace.
A young general beside him, silently listening to the conversation between the two people, majestic and heroic, all this in his eyes, but also helpless, the guest is not willing to marry the princess to the Turks, is to seek better development, trying to climb the high branches of the Qi country, the princess is unwilling to marry the Turks, is unwilling to marry the watermelon, but forced by the current situation, but had to agree, so this time to come to sue for peace, only to send the princess and the envoy to the envoy together, just to discuss the matter of peace.
Her Royal Highness the princess also had to endure these strange stares, and now in their eyes, maybe they were strangers, and many of them brought ridicule, and even despised them, and called Ruru contemptuously, "Do I have to live in such a barbaric place for the rest of my life?" ”
Looking at their eyes, I feel disgusted, as if they are rare animals, more like monkeys being played, and even more like the heavenly kingdom, which is also made up, since there is no way to marry someone, then marry her beloved, she can't see the man here, how can she compare to the man on their grassland? looked sick and sick, without any masculinity, and couldn't help but be annoyed.
"Princess, be quiet, don't be heard." The envoy reminded the reckless princess from time to time, maybe in her eyes, she didn't know the importance of this courtship, maybe he was the only one in this group who knew, if the peace failed, then he would have to bear the risk of extermination, so every word and deed must not be sloppy, can not be truthful, and can not be caught, after all, there is a request now.
Under the gaze and embrace of the people of Yecheng, when he came to the gate of the palace, An Youju led the Royal Forest Army in a lake-blue brocade robe to wait for a long time.
And looking at the number of this convoy, it seems that there are not many people who come, but it is an army of guards, plus an envoy, a princess, and a maid who serves the princess casually, there are only about 500 people around the left, according to this number, I am afraid that those rumors are true, this Rouran Department really lost badly in the battle with the Turks, so now although the name of Chaohe is proposed, it seems that anyone wants to marry the Qi State, so he sent the princess here.
"In Xia An Youju, I have seen Her Royal Highness Princess Rouran." An Youju politely bent down and saluted, this door had already been arranged, and there would be no people who were looking for trouble, and they would be safely escorted to the Taiji Hall and receive due courtesy.
"Oh, it turned out to be General Megatron, long admiration." When the envoy heard her reveal her name, he couldn't help but feel solemn, the name of General Wei Zhentian of Qi Guowei was afraid that it was well-known in the entire grassland tribe, and it was extremely reassuring for him to greet him personally, which showed the sincerity of this Qi country.
After a short period of astonishment, he remembered his mission and returned with the same etiquette, "The envoy brought Princess Anaro of Rouran to the Qi country to congratulate, and I wish His Majesty the Qi country a blessed life." ”
"The envoy does not need to be polite, please come with me to meet Your Majesty, and a banquet will be held in the near future to wash the dust for the envoy and the princess." An Youju said and led the group to the palace, and the remaining young general was led by Sang Zhe and went to rest, and the princess Anara's gaze seemed to have been on An Youjue's body.
The fame of this Megatron general, she had heard of it on the grassland, even Rouran couldn't help him, he said that he should have been an enemy, but he still fell in love at first sight, why did such a mighty man have this, such an elegant face, and the perennial conquest was not destroyed in any way,
She didn't speak or complain along the way, so she silently followed his footsteps, she knew that maybe once she stepped into this palace, she would never be able to live freely on the grassland again, but for the sake of this lack of last hope, she was still willing to embark on this road of no return.
If she still has a choice, she will not be so wronged, with her straightforward personality, she has never been willing to let herself be unhappy, but people will grow, and the road to growth is so difficult, every pain is telling herself that she needs to grow up.
Or maybe she was lucky, in the eighteen years of her girlhood, she could live as she pleased, everything was up to her own nature, and the Khan, as her adoptive father, was also very fond of herself, so she lived happily.
And now may be the time to repay her adoptive father's nurturing kindness, she has also learned to accept the dangers of her tribe, and to live a prosperous life as a princess, she should dedicate herself to the people of her tribe, so that she should take the path now, and from the moment she was defeated by the Turks, she has understood that she must take responsibility and become a true princess with general knowledge
Under.
Coming to the gate of the Taiji Palace, Li Zu'e and the harem concubines had been waiting here for a long time, and those people saw this Ruru Department
The beauty of the princess was also secretly amazed, this woman of the grassland tribe was really free and easy with different personalities from the Central Plains, and she was bold and heroic.
"Princess Anaro must have worked very hard all the way!" Li Zu'e is now on the top of the heavenly steps, watching Anaro slowly walk up, smiling gently, showing the momentum of the mother of a country.
"The queen is serious, and she doesn't feel hard." This is true, and it is the same when she used to lead her maids on the march and run the horse, but at a much faster pace.
Gao Wanyue stood in the crowd, looking at everything in front of the hall from a distance, and Huan Yu commented on the people of the Ruru tribe in front of her from time to time, and her eyes fell on An Youjue's body, whenever her eyes met, she would smile slightly and signal him.
"Princess Anarro will go with the palace to rest, and the envoy will meet Your Majesty with General An." Li Zu'e still said all these arrangements in a gentle voice,
"Queen Mother, don't worry, I have met His Majesty of Qi with the envoys and then it's not too late to rest." Seeing that she had postponed, she couldn't help but have a headache, and there was no reason to refute it, so she had to let her enter the Tai Chi Hall.
And what Li Zu'e can do is only in front of him, waiting for a cadre to enter the Taiji Palace, and then take the concubines to retreat, this Taiji Palace, women are not allowed to enter on weekdays, except for the eldest princess of Leyang, who is now acting for state affairs, it is inevitable to enter and exit, and now this Princess Anara, as a guest, it is also reasonable to enter the salute, and there are no women who can enter.
Seeing this crowd pouring into the Taiji Palace, Gao Wanyue had a headache, and asked Huan Yu anxiously, "Your Majesty hasn't arrived yet?" ”
"I guess I can't come, I was drunk yesterday, and I haven't woken up yet." I thought it was a drunken drink at Xue Concubine's place again, I used to come to greet the mission ceremony, but Xue Concubine was not there.
"Hey, let's go hard." She shook her head helplessly, took advantage of the chaos of the crowd, walked to the back of Gao Yang's dragon chair in the Taiji Hall, set up a seat for herself there, and slowly lowered the curtain, imitating that in history, other women were like other women to listen to politics, and Gao Wanyue's position was relatively hidden and unknown, after all, this was to deal with today's emergency.
The ministers were on both sides, An Youju was still in the front position, and the envoys entered the inner hall and did not see His Majesty on the dragon chair, and began to panic for a while, maybe this was just to give them a dismount, maybe there was not much sincerity, and his heart couldn't help but feel cold.
Prime Minister Yang Su walked out, "The envoys have worked hard all the way, my majesty is ill today, and if you can't attend, you will entrust me, a civil and military minister, to receive the envoys!" ”
He had no choice but to politely excuse himself, and he only knew the news of His Majesty's drunkenness, so he could only hide it for him.
"I think this is insincere!" Princess Rouran crossed her arms around her chest, looking indignant and seemingly dissatisfied with this matter.
"Hey, princess, don't be so rude!" The envoy was helpless to take this princess, after all, she was upright, and I offended others unconsciously without even expecting it.
"Hey, Your Royal Highness the Princess, this is a quick talk." Yang Yu also smiled helplessly, and for a while, the atmosphere in the Taiji Hall was extremely embarrassing, and Gao Wanyue could only sigh softly behind the curtain.
"This is my Khan, a gift list for His Majesty, and I hope the Prime Minister will see it." The envoy took out a letter of state and hurriedly glanced at it, originally these things should not be asked by him, but now that His Majesty is not there, he can only go through the motions for His Majesty, and then send someone to send the gift list to Gao Wanyue's hands.
Princess Anarro and the envoy looked behind the curtain, through the sunlight, you can see a person's figure, but I don't know who is sitting behind, when I entered the Taiji Hall just now, I didn't find that there would be someone there, and now I have to start speculating about the identity of that person, but since it is now the state of the fence, it is not easy to ask, so I can only guess silently.
