Chapter 201: These Two Strange Girls
Xia Qingli didn't notice his thoughts, and replied truthfully, "Such a tribe may have rare herbs and the like. I wondered if I should buy some. β
"No one would have too many strange herbs."
Mu Jinghan sighed, "I heard that there are a lot of strange herbs. If you like, go to the palace another day and take a turn, there are quite a few saints. β
Xia Qingli waved his hand and said no, "I don't have to ask for these strange herbs, I'm just curious." β
"How many princesses are here, how to arrange such a few princesses?"
Mu Jinghan's sixth sense jingled, "According to the rules, the princess from the tribe will marry the concubine of a certain family, and they are not qualified to enter the palace or be the wife of the royal family, and their status is a little lower." β
If she is a princess of a vassal country, she has the opportunity to enter the palace or marry someone from the royal family. But the princess of the tribe...... said that she was a princess, but in fact she was just a young lady in a huge ethnic group, where was she qualified to enter the palace.
Xia Qingli didn't care about this, "Now, the moon is going to be really lively." β
Mu Jinghan was worried, "Qingli, you should pay more attention recently." I suspect that the other party is trying to take advantage of the Great Han Dynasty and the pro-embassy to make trouble after the Yuedu. β
Xia Qingli, "...... It's you who should be worried, and the other party is targeting you, not me. β
Mu Jinghan corrected, "The target of the Zhu family and the others is you." β
Xia Qingli was right when he thought about it, "We are both the targets of others, and we are worthy of being a couple." β
Mu Jinghan's mood was very good all of a sudden, and he laughed, "Yes, we are a match made in heaven." β
Anshun had a bad chill, he is such a big living person here, can the prince and Miss Xia pay a little attention to his physical and mental health?
Looks like he's going to need to find one too.
β¦β¦
Before the peace envoys of the Great Han Dynasty came, the princesses sent by two of the tribes arrived first.
It's the Wolf Tribe and the Tiger Tribe.
The two tribes are friendly by marriage, so this time the princesses of the two tribes went out together and went to the moon capital together.
Looking at the prosperous Yuedu, the two princesses looked around curiously, followed by a dozen or so strong retinues.
"Sister, there are so many people in the month." The new moon opened a pair of big eyes, like a girl rushing to the market, looking left and right.
Zhuo Qian, who was replaced by Sister A, pulled her and warned in a low voice, "Xinyue, don't be rude." This is not in our tribe, it is in the capital of the Great Moon Dynasty, we can't lose the face of the tribe. β
Xinyue didn't dare to look around anymore, and followed her sister in a proper manner, "Sister, there are many people watching us." β
Zhuo Qian was also nervous, she squeezed her sweaty hands, "It may be that our clothes are different from those of the people here." β
The clothes of the two are relatively cool, similar to the kind of clothing worn less by the modern Miao people, so they have attracted the attention of countless people in the month.
"Which tribe is it from, right? It's not a New Year's holiday, why did the people of the tribe come over? β
"There are two girls walking in front, could it be the same as the Great Han Dynasty, who came to kiss?"
Xinyue began to get nervous: "Sister, where are we going now?" Daddy said, let's go to the palace of the Great Moon Dynasty first, but can we enter the palace of the Great Moon Dynasty? β
Zhuo Qian was not sure, she looked at the burden she was carrying, and her heart was heavy. This time, she and Ah Mei came to reconcile with the hopes of their respective ethnic groups.
Daddy and the others learned that the Great Han Dynasty had sent Princess Heqin to the Great Moon Dynasty, and immediately discussed with their uncle whether to send Princess Heqin as well, worried that the Great Moon Dynasty would be dissatisfied.
A small tribe like them is dependent on the Great Moon Dynasty to live.
"Let's ......"
As soon as she spoke, she heard Crescent Moon's stomach rumble.
"Sister, I'm hungry." Xinyue smelled the aroma of rice in the air, and her saliva was watering, but she was very well-behaved, "Sister, let's buy some steamed buns to eat, and when we are full, we will go to the palace." β
She and Sister Ah had brought a lot of silver and treasures, but they might have lived here all their lives, so they had to save some money, and they couldn't ask the tribe for silver.
The life of the tribe is not easy either.
Zhuo Qian was distressed when she heard it, but she didn't object. She knew better than Crescent Moon how much of an impact it would have on the tribe if she failed to make peace this time.
Before the harmony was successful, they had to save.
"There's a steamed bun seller over there."
A group of people came to the stall selling steamed buns.
"Ladies and gentlemen, what do you want to eat?" The boss asked with a smile on his face.
Xia Qingli, who happened to be eating haggis noodles at the stall next door, sucked into the noodles and kicked Cai Ying and Lan Lingling opposite.
It was Cai Ying and Lan Lingling who pulled her out to walk around here, and then came here to eat haggis noodles, Cai Ying said that the haggis noodles at home are delicious, who knew that such a thing would happen by chance.
Cai Ying and Lan Lingling looked at her with surprise on their faces.
"There is a princess of the tribe who is here, why is there no one to greet her?" Lan Lingling lowered her voice, "This is really strange. β
Cai Ying also felt strange, "According to the rules, each city gate has arrangements to greet you, and it is impossible for such a situation to occur." β
The Great Moon Dynasty is a big country, and it will never do such a thing. Most likely, something went wrong.
Now, the official who greeted him was finished.
Xia Qingli saw that the two and his father-in-law wanted a basket and a half steamed buns, blinked, and walked over with noodles.
"Two girls, are there no officials to greet you?" She asked straight to the point.
Xinyue was about to bite the steamed bun, and when she heard this, she subconsciously looked up at her, "Ah, you look so good, you are better looking than the high priests of our tribe!" β
"Crescent, don't talk nonsense!" Zhuo Qian scolded her, got up and saluted Xia Qingli, "This young lady is sorry, my sister has no bad intentions, she just thinks you are good-looking." β
She saluted by placing her right hand into a fist in front of her chest and her left hand behind her back, leaning over slightly.
Xinyue also reacted, and hurriedly apologized, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I don't mean anything else, I just think you look good." Please forgive me if you are offended. β
Before going out, Daddy and Auntie told her to be cautious in her words and deeds, and not to say whatever she wanted like at home.
Xia Qingli said with a smile, "It's okay, it's too late for me to be happy, how can I be angry." β
"Sit down. I'm the regent's fiancΓ©e, these two ......"
She introduced Lan Lingling and Cai Ying.
The two sides sat down after the salute.
Xia Qingli asked, "When you entered the city, didn't you meet the officials who greeted you?" β
Xinyue and Zhuo Qian looked at each other, "No." The soldiers at the city gate checked our identification documents and let us in. β
They haven't experienced this, and in their tribe, if an outsider comes, they will let them go after inquiry, it's not so complicated.
Xia Qingli and the three of them sensed the problem.
Xia Qingli asked again, "Which city gate did you come from?" β
Zhuo Qian said, "It's the South City Gate." Originally, we were supposed to come in from the west gate, but in order to hurry, we mostly took the small road, so we came in from the south gate. β
Xia Qingli summoned a secret guard: "You go to the palace, please send someone to check the situation at the south city gate." Also, ask the Holy Lord to send someone to pick up the two princesses. β
The Dark Guard took the order and went to do this.
"How did you eat......" As soon as Lan Lingling spoke, Cai Ying covered her mouth.
Cai Ying squinted and smiled, "Let's eat together?" The meat buns and sugar buns at this stall are delicious, as well as the mutton noodles next door, and the Hu cakes over there are also delicious. β
She secretly gave Lan Lingling a look and instructed the maid to buy a sufficient amount of steamed buns and mutton noodles. Lingling, this girl, can you say such things in public?
Lan Lingling also understood that he had almost said the wrong thing, and laughed awkwardly.
Xia Qingli noticed that Zhuo Qian and Xinyue were a little uncomfortable, and diverted the topic: "Why are the two princesses in such a hurry?" If there is anyone who needs help, just say that my Great Moon Dynasty will help the two of you as much as possible. β
Zhuo Qian shook her head, "I just want to arrive early, don't delay the time." Besides, my sister and I have long been accustomed to mountain roads, and we grew up in the mountains. β
When Xia Qingli was about to say something more, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he appeared behind Zhuo Qian, raising his hand to hold a sharp arrow that was shooting.
She backhanded the arrow in the direction it came.
"Chase!"
As soon as she gave the order, two secret guards immediately went to chase after her.
"I'll go!" Lan Lingling stretched out his head and said angrily, "What bastard would dare to do such a thing on the street." Don't be caught by the old lady, otherwise the old lady will ...... Forehead! Han Xiao, why are you here? β
"You didn't hear anything just now, did you?"
The green tendons on Han Xiao's forehead jumped suddenly, he said no, and saluted: "I've seen you." How did you all get together? β
He didn't ask who the people in the costumes were.
Xia Qingli hadn't seen Han Xiao for a while, and now that he looked at him, he was quite surprised, "Where did Han Juren go to further his studies?" I see a lot of changes in your temperament and way of behaving. β
Han Xiao smiled and said, "This is thanks to the cultivation of His Royal Highness the Prince Regent and the shopkeeper. Since that day, I've learned a lot from picking up customers at the counter with the shopkeeper. β
After picking up customers at the counter, he really understood what His Royal Highness the Regent meant. He is really bad at dealing with people.
Not tactful enough, not deep enough in his mind, too eager to carry out his ambitions.
These personalities are not much of a problem in normal times, but there is a big problem in their careers.
Xia Qingli sighed a few times, "The key is that you are willing to change." If you refuse to change, it will be useless for others to teach you more. β
"By the way, why are you here? I remember the restaurant wasn't here. β
Han Xiao explained, "I'm resting today, so I'm going to go to the bookstore I often go to copy books and study. Originally, he was going to go in the morning, but my neighbor asked me to help teach him the children, so I had to go in the afternoon. β
As soon as Xia Qingli sighed, he saw Lan Lingling take a basket of steamed buns to him, and he made a meaningful sound.
"Cai Ying, when did it happen? I don't know at all. β
