Chapter 167: The New Man and the Old Man
Speaking of which, Han Ziqi wants to send an envoy to Baiyue Kingdom, and at the moment when the situation is changing, if there is no legitimate reason, it is a bit rude. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
With the size of Yun Country, he can't let the people of the world label him as "bullying the small with the big" because he traveled for no reason, so he must have a reasonable reason to pass the border of Baiyue Country justifiably, so as not to give other forces a mouthful.
Han Ziqi thought about it, if he wanted to go to another country as the prime minister, it would have to be related to national affairs, if it was just for the sake of unity, it was not enough as a reason, so he could only make some fuss about the young marshal.
Zheng Tai had an agreement with the Yue family before, and the Yue family worked for him to serve the dogs and horses, but Zheng Tai needed to marry Yue Ping, the daughter of Yue Wuxun, as a concubine.
At that time, although he shirked the time with an excuse, he couldn't avoid this family affair no matter what, not to mention, Yue Wuyun's previous arrangement may have political considerations, but since Zheng Tai and Yue Ping met a few times, the two of them did have feelings!
Yue Ping is knowledgeable, quite a gentle and elegant sage, and Zheng Tai is about the same age, in the family, although he knows a little truth, but after all, he is still a "child", and Zheng Tai is a young man, has become the king of a country, but his temperament has not changed much, or loves stubbornness, in Yue Ping's view, this is a rare true temperament, and coincides with her Yue's family's free and easy military style, very "for her appetite", so there is really love in her heart.
With these two, Han Ziqi felt that it was better to delineate the marriage date in the near future, and considering that the two of them were indeed young, they would not hold a big wedding first, but in accordance with the ancient rites of the Son of Heaven to welcome relatives, first propose to the Yue family and set a marriage, firstly, it can be regarded as fulfilling the promise to Yue Wuturbid, secondly, it has also given the Yue family enough face, and thirdly, it can be used as an excuse to let Han Ziqi himself go to other countries!
After all, although his Yun Kingdom is big, the founding time is still short, and although his reputation is loud, he has not yet given grace and power within the four seas, and he is naturally inferior to the top ten families who have already had fame, gimmicks and foundations!
According to the charter, Han Ziqi first had to send written documents to the monarch of Zhibaiyue, and then he was ready to send an envoy and take people on the road.
Even if he doesn't value the land of Baiyue, and he doesn't care which force Baiyue will eventually belong to, but as a minister, he should first consider the maximization of his own interests, that is to say, he must first correct his attitude, and he must mainly adhere to and persuade Baiyue to surrender, and he can't treat it as an enemy as soon as he comes up.
Therefore, he didn't dare to bring more followers, besides, Yun Guo had just experienced the war, and the soldiers also needed time to rest, and the troops he could mobilize were very limited at the moment, so he only let Shen Xian, the great commander, lead a thousand men and horses as a guard of honor to accompany him.
However, he didn't want other countries to look down on his own military strength, so he carefully selected and dispatched 500 armor soldiers from the elite of the Yun Kingdom under Xiao Cangyun's jurisdiction, the Zhenyu Army Cangyun Guard, as accompanying guards, to demonstrate the strength of the Cloud Kingdom!
Because before, whether it was Sun Wei, Hao Wen and Nie Shaoyu, Qin Yu, Yan Chenghuan, or Yue Yin, Meng Bingxuan and Tang Rou, including the gang leaders of the Shama Gang, the Jade Horse Gang, and the White Chop Gang, they all made meritorious contributions in the battle against the Giant Thunder Country and won awards. Only Xiao Cangyun has not participated in the war, honed new soldiers in the rear, and formed a super elite army with superb combat effectiveness and extreme loyalty based on the original resounding Lingyao Kingdom "Cangyunwei", and Xiao Cangyun took Xiao Wanyun as a model and became the commander of this "special elite", so he named it "Zhenyu Army".
And most of the subordinates in the Zhenyu army, as well as the young generals who survived Cangyunwei in the past, can be regarded as Xiao Wanyun's deliberate transfer of them back to his hometown in order to protect these young people, so that these elite soldiers can be retained!
With this plot, Xiao Cangyun posthumously released "Cangyunwei" after Zhenyu's army, in order to show the will of everyone, inherit Xiao Wanyun's righteousness, and also show the unique ability of his army!
In view of Xiao Cangyun's meritorious training, but this Zhenyu army Cangyunwei has not yet appeared above Shenwu, so Han Ziqi specially ordered Xiao Cangyun to follow the army, which can be regarded as having the intention to cultivate him and let him make meritorious contributions!
Baiyue Guojun received Han Ziqi's letter early in the morning, and also made arrangements in advance, when Han Ziqi and others entered the territory of Baiyue Kingdom, according to etiquette, after all the soldiers had unloaded their blades, only the waiter took the group to the annex to rest.
And the monarch of Baiyue was ready to welcome, and at dusk, he held a banquet in the palace, and sent a special envoy to tell him.
Han Ziqi felt a little strange, if it was common sense, even if the monarch of Baiyue knew about them in advance, there was no reason to pick up the wind and wash the dust on the same day, no matter how eager he was, he would not raise the welcome banquet to the level of a "state banquet", and it would be held in the palace!
If it weren't for the fact that this Baiyue monarch respected and valued Yun Country very much, then it would definitely harbor evil intentions!
Han Ziqi prefers to believe the latter, after all, there is an old saying, "The heart of defense is indispensable"!
Of course, Yun Guo and his entourage stayed in the annex, and in front of the annex, Han Ziqi found some interesting details, and suddenly guessed what the situation was at tonight's night banquet, and unnaturally, a playful smile appeared on his face.
That night, Yun Guo and his entourage changed into military uniforms, brought gifts, and rushed to the Baiyue Palace according to the time.
The imperial city of Baiyue - Hongyue City, there is no celebration in the palace, but in the main hall, there are already singing and dancing.
Before the waiter led him into the main hall, Han Ziqi noticed some details, but he didn't say anything, and he didn't seem to be worried about any danger, so he took Shen Xian and Xiao Cangyun into the palace.
This hall is already brightly lit, and there are many people seated!
Shen Xian hadn't observed Han Ziqi carefully, and it was only when he entered the hall that he found that there were many familiar faces sitting in this hall!
Not to mention anything else, except for the Baiyue monarch who sat in the middle of the main hall and was dressed in grand and luxurious clothes, the most eye-catching thing was the emperor who was also richly dressed and several times younger and handsome than the Baiyue monarch who was over half a hundred years old - the emperor of the Chasing Yan Country, Wu Xuanyu!
He and Baiyue Guojun, like the protagonists of this night banquet, naturally attract people's attention.
However, Shen Xian also noticed a person, who should have followed Wu Xuanyu as an entourage, sitting at a small table slightly behind Wu Xuanyu at this time, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, and a calm bearing on his face, even if he was the envoy of the Yun Kingdom, and was called by the summoning officer, almost everyone in the palace, including Wu Xuanyu, stopped his movements for a while and looked at the palace door, but he was still too busy to take care of himself, but he leisurely tasted the wine in the cup!
Shen Xian didn't recognize this person, but his courage and demeanor made him care a little about this person.
At this time, there were still three people in the main hall wearing the robes of the Shenxiao Sect, one of whom was recognized by Shen Xian, but it was the "Yi Xiazi" who had a few encounters with him, the daughter of Master Ruan Zhuo of the Shenxiao Sect, Ruan Yunxia!
Just opposite the people of the Shenxiao Sect, there was also a group of soldiers wearing light armor, the leader of whom should be nearly sixty years old, but he was full of energy and spirit, but there was a touch of evil and loneliness in his eyes, which would make people a little unhappy.
Although this person Shen Xian had never come into contact with him, he could recognize it, especially this person's right hand, which was equipped with an iron hook with ingenuity, so it was easy to see that he had lost his right hand. Combined with this person's appearance and bearing, only the emperor of the Great Mu Kingdom can match it!
That's the one who designed to kill Xiao Wanyun, Huangfu Zhuo!
However, Huangfu Zhuo was also very surprised, he heard that Shen Xian's name was being announced, and he was still a little apprehensive in his heart, for fear that Shen Xian would attack him directly on impulse, and it was not easy for him to fight back, but he didn't expect Shen Xian to calm down, only glaring at him from afar, and then there was no more aggression.
And under Huangfu Zhuo's seat, there is also a table of acquaintances who know Shen Xian, but now, these three people have changed greatly!
These three people are Yin Xuanzheng, the former city lord of Qin'an City and the deer martial prince of the Giant Thunder Country, Yin Tianshuo, the former little prince of the Giant Thunder Country, and Luo Shuixian, one of the eight masters of the Demon Dao who can hardly connect with these two people!
Because Yin Xuanzheng and Yin Tianshuo had some kindness with Shen Xian, Shen Xian glanced at them more and bowed slightly.
"Now that all the distinguished guests of the Yun Kingdom have also arrived, then let's start our banquet! Left and right, introduce the envoys of the Yun Kingdom and serve delicious wine and food!"
When Shen Xian and his party sat down, the hall immediately sounded loud, and a group of graceful and beautiful dancers came to the hall and performed a beautiful dance that is rare in the world...... (To be continued.) )
