Chapter 228: Emperor Beiyuan has time to read more
"I've seen the Beiyuan Emperor." The courtiers bowed.
"You're welcome." Xiao Chengfeng replied casually, and looked at the hall, "It looks like I've come early, and the Emperor of Heaven Jin and the Jing Governor of your country haven't arrived yet." ”
The courtiers glanced at each other, and for a moment they were a little unsure of what Xiao Chengfeng meant, whether he was just saying it casually, or secretly blaming them for not being thoughtful enough.
Shen Qingshi stepped forward and arched his hand, "It's really not yet time for the banquet, Emperor Beiyuan, please." ”
"There's no hurry." Xiao Chengfeng said lazily, "Since the master's house has not yet arrived, then I, a guest, is naturally not too presumptuous, just wait for the Heavenly Jin Emperor outside this hall." ”
Shen Qingshi frowned, there is still a lot of time before the banquet, and it is natural that the emperor and the overseer have not arrived, even if Beiyuan is dissatisfied with the ridicule, it will not be tenable. But after all, he is the king of a country, and if he really lets people wait outside this palace, it would be really rude.
Shen Qingshi arched his hand again and spoke: "Although it is a spring day, it is cold after all, and I invite Emperor Beiyuan to enter the palace and wait." Otherwise, if it spreads out, and thinks that our courtiers of the Tianjin Dynasty are not thoughtful and small, and misunderstand that the Beiyuan Emperor deliberately did not enter the palace and created a handle, it would not be good. ”
Xiao Chengfeng glanced at Shen Qingshi seriously and laughed uncertainly.
"What if I'm deliberately creating a handle?"
"If that's the case, then I can only help the Beiyuan Emperor."
Shi Yu and Jing Heng walked over from the other side.
"I've seen the emperor, I've seen the overseer." The courtiers hurriedly saluted.
Xiao Chengfeng looked at Shi Yu, and when his eyes fell on the other party's face, he raised his eyebrows slightly, and then his eyes moved to Jing Heng beside Shi Yu.
It wasn't until the two of them approached that Xiao Chengfeng spoke again: "I don't know how Emperor Tianjin plans to help me?" ”
Shi Yu stopped and looked at Xiao Chengfeng, "For example, if Emperor Beiyuan likes to be outside this hall, I can ask someone to move your seat out alone and eat outside this hall." ”
As soon as these words came out, the faces of many courtiers of the Tianjin Dynasty changed, and what the emperor said was inevitably too polite.
However, the envoys of Beiyuan, one by one, stood behind Xiao Chengfeng with respectful and respectful eyes, as if as long as Xiao Chengfeng did not speak, they would not have any superfluous movements and expressions.
Xiao Chengfeng was not in a hurry or annoyed, his eyes looked Shi Yu up and down, and then he smiled: "Then forget it, if there is no Tianjin Emperor and Lord Jing to accompany you, this banquet will be very boring." ”
Shi Yu retracted his gaze, "Since that's the case, then Emperor Beiyuan invites him to the banquet." ”
After speaking, he took the lead and walked into the Changle Palace.
Jing Heng was always smiling, and then Shi Yu was about to enter, and when he passed by Xiao Chengfeng's side, the latter called people back.
"Lord Jingdu."
"Is there something wrong with the Emperor of the North Abyss?" Jing Heng stopped.
"It's nothing, it's just that on the way here, I heard a lot about the romance between Lord Jing and Emperor Tianjin, and I was curious for a while, so I wanted to ask Lord Jing if it was true or false."
Xiao Chengfeng's tone was relaxed, and it seemed that he was really just asking casually, but the four words of romance and rhyme were derogatory no matter how you heard them.
Jing Heng glanced at him sideways, and the next moment, he hooked his lips and smiled: "I heard that Emperor Beiyuan experienced civil strife when he was young, and he had a hard time?" ”
Xiao Chengfeng narrowed his eyes, "Shang Ke, why did Lord Jing suddenly ask like this?" ”
"Not really." Jing Heng shook his head, "I just think that even if I didn't have much time to study hard when I was young, now Emperor Beiyuan should make up for it, so as not to use words indiscriminately in front of others." ”
Jing Heng paused, and his eyes looked directly at Xiao Chengfeng.
"Between the governor and the emperor, it is clear that there is a good fate, and the love is stronger than gold."
Between the two, there was a moment of tension, which made the hearts of the other people around them instantly raise their throats.
But then, Xiao Chengfeng laughed again.
Slightly squinting peach blossom eyes stretched, smiling and playful, "It's me who lost my words." ”
In the hall, all the people had already come and sat down.
Shi Yu sat in the main seat, and Jing Heng sat with her.
As a sign of respect, Xiao Chengfeng's position was side by side on Shi Yu's right side, while Yue Ge and Red Shadow stood behind him, serving at any time.
The courtiers sitting below greeted each other with wine, looking so lively, but no matter who it was, they all kept their minds and quietly looked at Shi Yu and Xiao Chengfeng.
After a round of greetings and welcomes, I finally got to the point.
"The letter sent by Beiyuan said that he hoped that the two countries would be peaceful, but I wonder if Emperor Beiyuan really has such plans?" Among the courtiers, someone was the first to ask questions.
"Nature." Xiao Chengfeng held the wine glass, his body was slightly slanted, and he looked relaxed and uninhibited, "Beiyuan and Tianjin are originally in-laws, but after a long time, it is inevitable that there will be some friction, I intend to repair the relationship and re-conclude the good relationship between Qin and Jin, but I don't know ......"
After a slight pause, Xiao Chengfeng looked at Shi Yu and Jing Heng, "What do the Heavenly Jin Emperor and Lord Jing think?" ”
Shi Yu also picked up the wine glass with a smile, "If it's a kiss, who does the Beiyuan Emperor plan to marry?" ”
"Why do you want to marry, not Beiyuan?" Xiao Chengfeng finished drinking the wine in the cup, "I heard that the third princess of your country ......"
"The third princess has already made a marriage." Chu Ming subconsciously spoke.
Feeling the gazes of everyone, Chu Ming knew that he was a little impatient, and got up and arched his hand at Shi Yu, "The last general is rude, please don't blame the emperor." ”
"It doesn't matter." Shi Yu motioned for Chu Ming to sit down.
Xiao Chengfeng glanced at him, "I think this is General Chu, I heard that General Chu just made a marriage contract with the third princess recently, I want to congratulate the two." ”
The word hurry, which was said by Xiao Chengfeng, was somewhat meaningful, and everyone present could naturally hear the meaning.
It's just that everyone is pretending to be stupid, after all, when they married a princess, Beiyuan was able to go back on their word, and they sent troops to attack within a few years, and now if they marry a princess of Tianjin, I'm afraid there is nothing to scruple about.
To put it bluntly, at present, there is really not much to be gained from this and pro to Tianjin.
Xiao Chengfeng also understood this, and played with the wine glass in his hand with his fingertips, "This time with the family, Beiyuan is indeed sincere, if Tianjin is willing to choose the right person to marry into Beiyuan, Beiyuan is willing to take the two cities of Yangyue and Shuofeng as a dowry!" ”
As soon as he said this, the Tianjin courtiers present instantly became calm, and even Nie Mingyu and Nie Zhaoyi couldn't help but change their faces.
Yangyue and Shuofeng were originally the land of Tianjin, although they were only two cities, but their location was extremely critical, and they were natural military fortresses.
Beiyuan's original national strength was not as good as Tianjin's, but since more than thirty years ago, after capturing the two cities, it has had a situation equal to Tianjin's.
If Yang Yue and Shuo Feng can return to Tianjin, not to mention the improvement of Tianjin's national strength, the ability to defend against the enemy alone will be greatly increased. If Beiyuan wants to attack again, I'm afraid that he will be stopped before he sets foot in Shuofeng City.
What Xiao Chengfeng threw out was a bargaining chip that was enough to make all the Wenchen generals of the Tianjin Dynasty excited!
