After the negotiation, he had to sign a covenant and accept a banquet, and he was tired of being tossed by a series of ceremonies, so he hurriedly went home and gave the information and passed it on.

He himself got into Si Qinmi's arms, and as soon as his eyes were closed, the person collapsed, and it took about ten minutes to sleep before he eased up a little.

Siqin Mi hugged him as before, looking at her lover with pity, her husband went out to work hard, and she had to play the role of a harbor when she came home.

"It's really boring, what are these people doing with this stuff all day." Zhuang Xun said sullenly, still a little confused when he woke up.

"In order not to appear to eat white rice, otherwise the Ministry of Etiquette will not set it up in vain, the importance of etiquette is also to regulate people's hearts." Si Qin Mi first agreed and explained that etiquette is needed, but the increasingly complex etiquette is slightly bloated.

"Forget it, it's up to him." Zhuang Xun said happily, relieved, people were groggy, sleepy, intermittently talking about the boredom of today's negotiations, and talking about how good the answer was.

It's a pity that he wasn't offensive enough and couldn't tear him apart.

"It's good to be able to keep the bottom line, the basic bottom line is to exchange Hebei Road for Jiannan Road, the other party is not a fool, and there is no traitor, the meaning of the offense is not great, you have to carry more things, the offense is not better than the defense, it is necessary to quote the scriptures, the other party occupies the main position in this battle, and the Yu country is weak, it is good to be able to do this." Si Qinmi comforted and praised that both sides knew the bottom line of both sides, so the outcome of this negotiation was doomed.

Just when Zhuang Xun was ready to sleep well and make up for his spirit, an unfamiliar guest came.

"Zhuang Yushi, the Holy Lord, please come to the palace to discuss." The eunuch in red came to invite him.

Zhuang Xun has also done expression management, looking at the sun that is slanting westward in his heart, and resisting the urge to scold his mother and agree.

One day I was tired of work, I went home to chat with my daughter-in-law to enhance my relationship, and I was ready to sleep, and suddenly I was pulled by the leader to work overtime.

In my heart, I sat in the carriage of the palace again, and saw that the vendors who set up the stalls had also withdrawn, Zhuang Xun became more and more bored, everyone went home, only I worked overtime!

When it was dark in the palace, Yu Guo's station in Chengguo was in the west of the city, because the land in the west of the city was cheap, and the guards could also be arranged to move in, and the big families lived in the east of the city, and the central axis was a road connecting the palace.

"Yushi, being summoned by His Majesty is something that many officials dream of." The eunuch saw that Zhuang Xun had no expression on his face, but there was a faint displeasure on his body, and he comforted him.

"Xun is very grateful for King Cheng's attention, but now that it is getting late, I don't know what is important to Your Majesty." Is there any work that is not good for tomorrow, it's dark today, what extra shifts do you have to make!

"This is not something that a small person can know, it can only be said that His Majesty's move must have a deep meaning." The eunuch sneered and said, how could he understand the idea of becoming a king.

"Doesn't King Cheng usually see anyone?" Zhuang Xun collected his emotions, and there was no need to vent his emotions on the messenger.

"Your Majesty is devoted to cultivation, and does not ask about political affairs, and usually only summons important ministers like Prime Minister and General Li to meet." The eunuch's answer made Zhuang Xun stunned.

How does this template sound so familiar?

The night of Miyagi is not brightly lit, and after passing through the layers of guarded palace walls, you will come to the back garden of Miyagi.

It feels like you're going to plot something, carrying a lantern and walking like this.

Coming to a quaint-looking blue-tiled house, the eunuch knocked on the door.

"Enter the ......" Cheng Wang's voice was vain, like a person who had been hungry for a few days and couldn't speak.

Entering the door, the candlelight illuminated the room transparently, Zhuang Xun just entered the door, his eyes were not adapted to the change from dim to bright for a while, and the temperature in the room was warmer than outside.

After getting used to the most attractive light, he also saw the people in the house clearly.

What attracted Zhuang Xun's attention the most was not the king who was dressed in a Taoist robe and looked a little gloomy, but a cold and noble beauty sitting on the side, wearing a pearl and cui, not smiling, with a beautiful appearance, Ling Ling had the posture of a fairy, but a pair of fox eyes were born extremely charming, wearing a light red tail palace skirt of the concubine level, gorgeous atmosphere.

"Foreign Minister Zhuang Xun, I have seen Your Majesty, Niangniang." Zhuang Xun bowed down and bowed, and he didn't know what the identity of this charming cold beauty was.

"The imperial history does not have to be polite, please sit, it is not a formal occasion, but it is all night, and the imperial history is invited to the palace, and the imperial history is annoying." King Cheng showed a smile, apologetically there are some, but there is no closeness.

You know it's night, and you're calling me?

Of course, this can't be said, Zhuang Xun can only deal with it: "Don't bother, it's an honor to be received by Your Majesty, but I don't quite understand what Your Majesty needs to summon the minister." ”

"I heard that Yushi and the second lady of the Li family have an appointment for life?" King Cheng smiled and asked Zhuang an embarrassing question first.

"That's true." Zhuang Xun didn't quite understand why King Cheng asked this question as soon as he came.

"I heard that Yushi already has a wife." King Cheng looked at Zhuang Xun, dressed in a yellow dragon python robe, with an elegant temperament, fair skin, a literati bearing, a divine light in his eyes, a humble and confident expression, giving people a sense of kindness and closeness.

It is indeed worthy of the evaluation of the posture of the dragon and phoenix, the body is slightly short but supports the luxury of the python robe, and the clothes and people reflect each other.

"Yes." Zhuang Xun didn't want to discuss this issue, but it was not good to say it directly, don't ask this question, it's embarrassing.

"Is the imperial history ready to divorce his wife and marry the daughter of the Li family?" King Cheng asked again, which meant breaking the casserole and asking to the end.

Don't you care about a pleasant exchange? Is that straightforward?

At this time, the beauty who had been cold-faced and silent, also looked at Zhuang Xun, as if she was examining him.

"I'm not ready, I plan to come to the door to propose marriage and marry Miss Li Er as a flat wife." Zhuang Xun simply told him, lest he keep asking.

"Yu Shi's heart is also big, and he is not afraid that General Li will beat you out." King Cheng smiled, somewhat admiring Zhuang Xun's courage.

When the beautiful woman on the side heard Zhuang Xun's words, her face became even colder, and she was faintly unkind, and Zhuang Xun could vaguely feel the woman's dissatisfaction with herself.

Combined with what Li Ruxi said about her family's family situation, Zhuang Xun has already guessed her identity, Li Ruxi's sister, Chengguo Guifei Li Shaoyun, looks almost the same type of woman, she looks like a weak willow and a wind, but I don't know if she has the power of Li Ruxi to fight the tiger with three punches.

"If you don't come to the door, it's not a matter of being beaten, and it's also a responsibility and an agreement." If you ruin the reputation of other women, you want to run, right, who gave you such a big face?

"Yes, but looking at the appearance of the imperial history, it is also a last resort." No matter how ugly Li Shaoyun's expression was, King Cheng understood Zhuang and said.

"It can't be counted, it's a mistake in the inquiry, but the wife is not immoral, so I can only make this decision." Zhuang Xun was in front of Li Shaoyun, even if it was designed by Li Ruyun, he didn't dare to say it, and there was no need to tell outsiders about this kind of husband and wife.

"Yushi is also considered a pure and good person, do you want to come to the door tomorrow?" King Cheng continued to ask, very concerned about the marriage of Zhuang Xun and Li Ruxi.

"Two days after tomorrow, I have to deal with official affairs, and then consider private affairs, which are related to General Li, and I don't want to hurt General Li's reputation because of private affairs." Zhuang Xun gave up, visited the enemy general before the negotiation, and went to propose relatives, and the originally clear territory exchange was like a deal behind the scenes.

Although everyone knows that Zhuang Xun may want to tie the knot with Miss Lier, but the superficial work must be done, otherwise Zhuang Xun will not know the etiquette.

"Avoiding suspicion? It should also be that the invitation to come to the Imperial History today is also to thank the Imperial History. King Cheng gently revealed this matter, and said to Zhuang Xun.

"The foreign minister is unknown?" Thank me? Thank me for what? What do you want to thank me, a foreign king?

Zhuang Xun was highly vigilant, for fear that he would be infamous as a traitor if he was not careful.

"This time, the immortals can help us Chengyu and the two countries, thanks to the coordination of the imperial history, and General Li's battle report also stated that without the immortal's cover for the enemy's demon reconnaissance, and without the immortal to kill the demon to improve morale, it is impossible to achieve a great victory in the tide water so easily, I think that the imperial history should receive the second merit."

King Cheng smiled and said that acknowledging Zhuang Xun's role in this war that decided the fate of the Three Kingdoms was the second greatest credit after Li Pingyuan.

"Don't dare to be it, the merit of the immortals, the foreign minister doesn't dare to take it on his head, the foreign minister doesn't even know that the immortal will appear on the front line, and the foreign minister is not even on the battlefield, how can it be considered a meritorious service." Zhuang Xun hurriedly denied that what was his was his, and if it wasn't his, he didn't want to take it.

"Immortals don't want fame and fortune, and they go away with the sword, this credit is not given to you, but to whom? Besides, Yushi is the inspector of Yushi who accepts this merit and promotion in Yu State, and leads Jiannandao on behalf of him, isn't it just acknowledging this connection? King Cheng's words are reasonable, Zhuang Xun couldn't say anything to refute for a while, did he tell him that he was specially taken care of by King Yu?

"It seems that the imperial history also admits that this battle is of great significance, and it will be difficult for the country to raise troops within five or even ten years, and the country of Yu will gain peace and stability, this kind of great merit deserves my gratitude." King Cheng said clearly, it seems to be a deep residence in the palace and a cultivator, not asking about the world.

"Your Majesty's words are serious, but he is loyal to the country." Zhuang Xun can only admit it when he sees it, otherwise he denies the reward he received in Yu Kingdom?

Don't say that he has normal EQ, and he won't do this if he has a low EQ and a normal IQ, isn't this denying the legitimacy of his identity?

"That's why I want to reward the imperial history, to be loyal to the country, and to make such a great contribution." King Cheng said with appreciation.

"The foreign minister is the minister of Yu State, how can he accept His Majesty's reward, please be cautious." Zhuang Xun listened and quickly refused.

To accept a reward from another country, or to be a diplomatic envoy, this is not impeached to death? Even the people will think that you have betrayed the country, otherwise why would the other party reward you.

"Yushi doesn't have to be nervous, and it won't make you embarrassed, this time General Li and Yushi are so good, it's not appropriate to reward them, since Yushi has the desire to marry Miss Li, I will be a matchmaker, ask Concubine Li to be a middleman, and persuade General Li to agree to the marriage of Yushi and Miss Li'er."

King Cheng took the initiative to say, then looked at Concubine Li next to him and said, "What do you think of Concubine Li?" ”

You have promised to go out, what can I think, can you say that you don't agree?

"The concubine has no opinion, Zhuang Yushi has an elegant temperament, and he is a good match for his sister." Concubine Li naturally said that she was even more indifferent to Zhuang Xun's expression.

If you're satisfied, can you change your expression?

"As a marriage and reward, the counties adjacent to the south of the Great Henan of Jiannan Province will be handed over to the management of the imperial history, and the canonization is also the canonization of the second lady of the Li family, which can be regarded as a reward for General Li, but also a reward for the imperial history." The emperor offered a heavy reward.

"Your Majesty, no, I'm afraid that the soldiers will be chilled and cause fierce opposition from the courtiers." Concubine Li hurriedly stopped it, and King Cheng's decision didn't know how many people had moved.

Although this cake has not been cut yet, for some people, they have been looking forward to it, and this decision is too capricious, this land that has just been exchanged, will be spit out half, who can accept it.

"If you don't give it, it will make the soldiers feel cold, General Li has now arrived at the Duke of the Kingdom, there is no seal, and the country is not allowed to give the minister a fief, it is better to give General Li some dowry, so that he has a face, which not only rewards General Li for his merits this time, but also rewards the imperial history This time, please move the immortals to kill the monster." Cheng Wang's words came out, and there seemed to be no problem.

According to Li Pingyuan's merits, it seems that there is really no fault with this, and the people can understand and support it, Concubine Li is silent.

"It also prevents General Li from being embarrassed, so I will give the marriage, so as to avoid the conflict between General Li and Zhuang Yushi." King Cheng said kindly, Concubine Li nodded, this is true.

After all, knowing that his daughter was going to marry someone else as an equal wife, these fathers with status could stand it, and they couldn't do it without making some gestures, and their tough refusal hurt the feelings of the second sister, and with the marriage of the king, it was a façade for him.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the marriage." Zhuang Xun said gratefully, it turned out to be a marriage, and he breathed a sigh of relief, it was not a conspiracy.

"Yushi deserves it, I just push the boat with my hands, Yushi, do you know about the immortal family?" King Cheng accepted Zhuang Xun's gratitude, and then changed his style and asked about the immortal.

"This ......" Zhuang Xun hesitated a little, thinking of the Reincarnation King.

"The imperial history really has the path of the immortal family, and I have a strong desire to seek the Tao, can the imperial history be convenient?" King Cheng hesitated when he saw Zhuang Xun, and immediately knew that he had genuine goods, and his eyes became eager.

At this moment, Zhuang Xun suddenly realized, why did King Cheng want to set up the so-called second merit to him, why did he help him marry Li Ruxi, it turned out that the pit was here, and he wanted to get the cultivation method of the immortal family from himself, or how to find the immortal.

The problem with "......" is that Zhuang Xun doesn't know where the immortals are, and he doesn't have the magic method to practice.

"If there's a problem, just don't say it." King Yu saw that Zhuang did not reply for a long time, revealing a disappointed expression.

"The matter of cultivating immortals, the ministers can't understand clearly, but I once heard the immortals say that if you cultivate virtue and make meritorious contributions, there will naturally be immortals coming to the door." Although it is the next life.

"Which immortal is it, and where is he cultivating?" King Cheng became interested again.

"The ministers here can't find it, and Your Majesty won't find it, if Your Majesty cultivates virtue diligently, fate will come, and naturally there will be immortals coming to the door." Zhuang Xun thought about it and said, how to find the underworld, he couldn't find it, and he didn't lie.

And after King Cheng dies, he will definitely go to the underworld, and he is not a lie, but I don't know how his merits will accumulate at that time.

"I understand, please inform Zhuang Yushi, there is Lao Yushi who came to talk, Concubine Li, help send Zhuang Yushi, you discuss how to go to Lifu." Zhuang Xun's words were exactly the same as the immortals he had seen before, and King Cheng's mood suddenly became irritable and he gave an order to expel the guests.

Zhuang Xun was resigned, waiting for Concubine Li, walking on the courtyard road, Concubine Li was obviously not in the mood to talk to him, led him out of the door, and first went to find the palace maid Yangmei waiting outside the courtyard.

"The slave has seen the saint, Niangniang." Zhuang Xun's python robe, the environment of the night, Yang Mei shouted.
