Chapter Seventy-Two: The Invitation
Chenguang put down the porcelain cup, was silent for a while, and sneered:
"He has the ability, I didn't even have an official Princess Rong who came with me, he is already the righteous son of Emperor Longxi and is directly crowned king."
"The news from Wuji Palace said that Emperor Long Xi wanted to learn the same alchemy as Yan Ying, and I don't know what Yan Ying said, Emperor Long Xi readily accepted Yan Ying as a righteous son." Si Qian continued.
"Alchemy?" Chenguang muttered to himself, thought for a moment, and asked, "You just said that the prince and him are wrong?" ”
"The prince was very opposed, saying that Yan Ying's warlock brought disaster to the country and almost made a move, Emperor Longxi reprimanded the prince fiercely because of this matter, and maintained Yan Ying tightly."
"Emperor Longxi's thirst for immortality is really to the point of going mad, if I didn't know what Yan Ying did, I thought he was Emperor Longxi's seed left by the people." Chenguang said, the porcelain cup turned over in his hand, and he groaned for a long time, as if he was smiling, and hooked his fingers to the priest.
Si Qian leaned over.
Chenguang whispered a few words to him.
Si Qian was stunned for a moment, frowned, and asked uneasily: "Your Highness is sure?" ”
Chenguang smiled and nodded.
Si Qian hesitated for a moment, and responded in a deep voice.
Seeing that he had no intention of leaving, Chenguang asked, "Is there anything else?" ”
"The date and place of the Seven Congresses have been set, and they will be held in Qi'an in the autumn, and the Feng Ming Kingdom has also received an invitation this time."
Chenguang smiled: "Feng Ming Kingdom has been forgotten by the Six Kingdoms for so many years, and this is the first time that I have received an invitation from the Seven Kingdoms, and the Seven Kingdoms have always been the Six Kingdoms before. ”
"Yes, so His Royal Highness King Lian wrote a letter to ask, he can't participate in the Seven Kingdoms, and asks who His Highness wants to send."
Chenguang thought for a while and said, "Let Borscht come." ”
"Yes. In addition, His Royal Highness King Lian said in the letter that His Majesty's health has not been very good in recent days. ”
"Hmm." Chenguang responded lightly, a little absent-mindedly, thought for a moment, and added, "Let Luo Song bring Si Xuerou and Si Xueyan." ”
Si Qian was a little surprised, but he had never been able to understand the idea of the morning light, he just obeyed, and after answering, he continued:
"I don't know about other countries for the time being, but Yanyun Kingdom has already decided that Changxi Gongzi will participate, and the Beiyue Emperor of Beiyue Kingdom will come in person, and the person in charge of receiving it from Long Xiguo is His Royal Highness King Rong. This time, the main discussion of the Seven Congresses was the North Vietnamese State, which raised the price of salt by 30% this year, which made the South Vietnamese State very dissatisfied, and sued the Chiyang State, and the Chiyang State sent an envoy to talk, and as soon as the envoy returned, the North Vietnamese State threatened to destroy the South Yue State. ”
"Poof!" Chenguang, who was drinking water, almost squirted out a mouthful of water, she laughed and said, "Han Zheng also has the ability, the North Yue Kingdom is outside the desert, but the grain output is similar to that of the Fengming Kingdom, and there is a famine almost every year, so he is still shouting all day long to destroy the South Yue Kingdom and annex the Chiyang Kingdom, and the Seven Kingdoms will clean him up, and he dares to come, what a man......"
"His Royal Highness said that it was a stupid pig, and when he succeeded to the throne for more than ten years, Beiyue was not as good as his father when he was alive, but he was more happy than his father when he was alive, and the people of Beiyue were hungry, and he himself was fat-headed and big-eared." Si Ba said quickly.
"Si Ba, I heard that the Emperor of Beiyue likes the big beauty the most, you can be careful with your mouth, in case he is scolded by you and addicted to snatch you back to Beiyue to be a concubine, I will have to call you 'Niangniang' when I see you in the future." Chenguang said with a grin.
"Before that, the slave maid will make him a whole roasted pig!" Si Ba clenched his fists and bared his teeth.
The Seven Kingdoms caused quite a stir among the literati of Long Xi Kingdom, and those students who paid attention to political affairs were proud even if they were not in the court, and they were very excited during this time, as if the Seven States could be held in Qi'an, then Long Xi Kingdom was the master of the Seven Kingdoms, the master of the Seven Kingdoms, which made them glorious and proud.
Ziwei Zhai is the largest literati gathering place in Qi'an, here is a teahouse, because the environment is elegant, the bookish atmosphere is strong, unconsciously it has become a place where readers frequently come and go, but few people know that Ziwei Zhai is controlled by the imperial court, here is the source of various unofficial public opinion, and it is also one of the birthplaces of the literary prison.
Huang Xian, the apparent shopkeeper of Ziwei Zhai, is a scholar about forty years old, kind and polite, and today he received instructions from a noble person above, and Ziwei Zhai ushered in a special guest.
The woman wearing a white Shu brocade long skirt and a mili on her head couldn't see her appearance clearly, but she felt very young and beautiful, and she walked with a fragrance. She was followed by a slender maid, dressed in honey-colored dress, also covered with a veil, and her appearance was unrecognizable.
Ziwei Zhai did not clearly stipulate that women are not allowed to enter and exit, but generally speaking, no women will come to this kind of place where scholars gather, but this is introduced by the above, Huang Xian did not dare to ask more, and politely led the woman to a hidden box on the second floor, and asked what tea she wanted.
"Clear water is fine, not well water, spring water." It was the maid who spoke with her, and her voice was low and soft, very beautiful.
"There is a mountain spring that was just picked up from Fuyu Mountain this morning, how can the girl look good?"
"Okay."
Huang Xian responded, turned around and wanted to leave, but heard the girl in white who was already sitting at the table suddenly speak, her voice was cool and pleasant, like a cold wind blowing through a silver bell, she said:
"Another pot of tongue."
Huang Xian was startled, glanced at her, and hurriedly lowered his head, went out to prepare, and soon sent a pot of spring water and a pot of sparrow's tongue.
"Don't let people bother." The maid instructed.
Huang Xian responded, went out and instructed the guy to wait outside the door, and when he was awake, a person came and came straight to the Peacock Pavilion, was silent for a moment, pushed open the door, and went in. When Huang Xian saw who the person was, he was so frightened that he didn't tell the guys anymore, he drove all the guys away, and guarded them alone, terrified.
Chenguang was drowsy with one hand on her cheek, and at that moment, the door opened, and there was a soft sound, and she looked towards the door, and the cold purple filled her vision, and the person who came to the appointment on time made her hook the corners of her lips and smile softly.
Yan Ying glanced at her, closed the door, walked over, sat down opposite her, leaned leisurely, looked at her, and said with a smile:
"Si Qian suddenly said that you want to see me, I was startled, and I thought he wanted to cheat something."
Chenguang smiled softly.
Huo Wu stepped forward, lifted the teapot, and poured the fragrant tongue into the teacup in front of Yan Ying.
Yan Ying looked at the turquoise tea soup, the morning light does not drink tea, this pot of tea is obviously prepared for him, happy, no, this kind of gentleness on the surface, with a purposeful gentleness......
Maybe he should be happy, after all, he likes her gentleness, loves her gentleness, expects her gentleness, and deceives himself......
"Tongue of the Sparrow......" he said softly, smiling softly, curling his pale rose-colored lips.
After three breaths, he picked up the teacup and took a sip.
