In the courtyard of the North Korean envoy's house, Li Xuan stood in front of the mirror, and the attendant arranged the crown and hat for him.

Joseon is the prince of the county, but the lord of the country enjoys the treatment of the prince, so his son can enjoy the treatment of the prince of the county.

The king of the county, Dai Yishan, wore a double-group dragon robe, which was already a very high salary, at least in the entire north today, Zhu Jinghong had a higher title than Li Xuan.

After finishing up, it was time to set off, but Li Xuan was not half happy, and his expression was full of heaviness.

Accompanying her husband out of the door, Jin Youyan said: "Your Majesty, the so-called soldiers will come to block the water and cover the earth, and everything will be understood when it goes...... You don't have to worry too much! ”

"Concubine...... The safety of the country is all in the feast tonight, how can I not worry! ”

"Think so...... way it should be"

"This is a good thing for Your Highness, you can't live up to it!"

"What do you think?"

At this time, Ye Hemingen sneered: "His Royal Highness King Xiang is invincible and invincible, how can he be collided by a woman?" ”

As soon as Li Xuan finished speaking, Ye He Mingen interjected: "Lord Wang...... North Koreans are accustomed to rhetoric, Li Xuan and his concubine are here, but now only one person comes to the banquet, what do you mean by him? ”

"North Koreans have always been cunning, I think they are deferential on the outside, but in fact they are ...... wolf ambitions"

Whether it is the Jurchen envoys or the civil and military officials of the Ming Dynasty, they all want to see the appearance of the Korean princess, after all, such an opportunity is really rare.

Under the guidance of the on-site ceremonial officer, everyone at the banquet got up and saluted Zhu Jinghong, who motioned for everyone to sit down.

At this time, a large number of eunuchs appeared at the back of the venue, and at the same time, music began to play on the left and right sides of the main seat, and everyone knew that this was Zhu Jinghong's arrival.

As for the two civil officials, they were the political envoys and the envoys of Liaodong.

"Don't just look at the surface?" Baoqin Fox asked.

Normally, this Zhu Jinghong should have stopped everyone from coaxing, but at this time he didn't say a word.

"Tea!"

"I'm fine!" Zhu Jinghong replied casually.

After three rounds of drinking, the atmosphere became more and more joyful, and at this time, Baoqin took the initiative to step forward and pour a cup of tea for Zhu Jinghong.

I only heard Zhu Jinghong ask: "Your princess is also here?" ”

"People like you are the real traitors, and they should be severely punished!"

"Yes, yes...... It's really round! ”

However, before Zhu Jinghong's voice fell, he heard Baoqin say: "Brother-in-law, you don't accompany my sister during the Mid-Autumn Festival, but you are with these messy people, I'm afraid that my sister will be as unhappy!" ”

"If your sister knows, you come to this place, but I am afraid that you will not have good fruit to eat!"

Now that Ye Hemingen has spoken, these people have also echoed it, setting off public opinion in this banquet hall.

"Look at the present, you're the only one running around and not following the rules...... Are you flouting the venue? Or despise His Royal Highness King Xiang? ”

Li Xuan knew that tonight was the Hongmen Banquet, but he didn't expect it to be opened in such a way, which made him feel deeply humiliated and powerless to resist.

So Baoqin carried the teapot and cautiously came to Zhu Jinghong's side, raising the teapot with both hands to add tea for him.

Li Xuan's ability to buckle a hat has long been perfected, and it is not too easy to put a hat on Ye Heming at this moment.

"Yes!"

was embarrassed by Li Xuan's arrangement just now, and Ye Hemingen came out to talk nonsense at this moment, just to disgust Li Xuan.

A large number of eunuchs appeared at the scene and guided the officials to sit down.

And hearing Li Xuan's words, Ye Hemingen and the others were immediately overjoyed, after all, it would be more fun tonight.

"Positive...... Precisely! Li Xuan felt a little wrong.

"Ladies and gentlemen...... He's slandering, he's slandering me......"

What do you think? If you follow the real idea, there must be people at the scene who are unwilling to come, after all, it is undoubtedly more appropriate to accompany your family during the Mid-Autumn Festival.

"The Prince...... If you have brought your wife, why is she not seeing it today? ”

In the past two days, Ye Hemingen has communicated with other Jurchen envoys many times, and these people also know that the Korean princess is beautiful, and they all want to meet each other.

However, they were soon disappointed, because Kim Youyan, who appeared on the stage, was veiled.

Jin Youyan wanted to die headlong, but she was afraid of angering King Xiang, not only harming the prince but also implicating her mother's family.

Li Xuan's embarrassment and pain, Baoqin saw all of them, which made her feel some sympathy for this Korean prince.

"Could it be that the moon in the sky also knows that the thirteenth master is going to hold a banquet tonight, so it is specially brightened!"

I only heard Ye Hemingen say: "The son of the world...... Your Highness has commanded, what are you still doing in a daze? Let's call the princess to come along! ”

The clay man also had three points of anger, and at this time, Li Xuan couldn't bear it anymore, and immediately reprimanded angrily: "Your Highness didn't speak, but you jumped up and down to tease right and wrong...... What kind of heart do you have? ”

Knowing that persuasion was useless, Jin Youyan sent her husband outside the house, and then watched her husband leave.

"Your Highness thinks about you wholeheartedly, and let your husband and wife reunite in the Mid-Autumn Festival, but your woman comes to the banquet with her face covered, isn't this snubbing Your Highness?"

"Girl...... What does it have to do with me that he himself is willing to call? ”

Zhu Jinghong, who saw it with his own eyes, was even more perfect than Li Xuan imagined, which made him even jealous in his heart.

Even if he is as domineering as Ye He Mingen, he can't afford such an accusation at this moment, so he angrily reprimanded: "You kid, nonsense...... Mess with my innocence! ”

He was quick to talk, and he was even ready to be reprimanded, but things went differently than he expected.

"What? Could it be that you really despise Your Highness? ”

Led by Ye Hemingen, all the honest people at the scene turned their eyes to the south side, which was the entrance to the venue.

"Your Highness's kindness, we are so honored, how dare we ......"

At the beginning of the singing and dancing, because it was choreographed according to Zhu Jinghong's preferences, these modern performance style programs really made everyone at the scene feel refreshed.

A few breaths later, accompanied by four generals and two civil officials, Zhu Jinghong, who was dressed in four dragon round-necked robes and wore a black gauze winged crown, slowly appeared in front of everyone.

"What does it mean to go to a banquet with a veil? Could it be that you are still afraid of letting the prince see it? Ye Hemingen's voice sounded at the right time.

"Singing and dancing can begin!"

"Alright...... How can there be so many rhetoric, admiring the moon is admiring the moon! Zhu Jinghong smiled indifferently.

Facing Zhu Jinghong's indifferent gaze, Li Xuan could only say: "Since His Royal Highness does not dislike it, the minister will order someone to pick up Jing to come to the banquet!" ”

With small steps, Jin Youyan came to Li Xuan's side, and the husband and wife looked at each other with pain in their eyes.

Picking up the teacup, Zhu Jinghong said: "I didn't say that I wanted him to call his wife!" ”

Seeing that Baoqin was still going to speak, Zhu Jinghong continued: "Besides, there are some things, it's not as simple as you see, what I told you two days ago, you forgot it so quickly?" ”

Hearing these words, Li Xuan's shoulders were like a big mountain, making him not only unable to straighten his waist, but even making it difficult to breathe.

And at this moment, Ye Hemingen crossed his waist and looked at Li Xuan condescendingly, with a lot of jokes in his expression.

Although he knew that Li Xuan was a fox and a fake tiger, this guy spoke loudly, causing everyone at the scene to look over.

Li Xuan didn't have joy in winning a game, because his biggest difficulty hadn't yet appeared.

The four generals were the commanders of Yanshan, Liaodong and Andong Xingdu, as well as Zhao Chengwu, the commander of the Liaodong Naval Division.

Everyone talked and laughed, sent Zhu Jinghong to the main seat and took a seat, and then returned to their respective positions.

In addition to Li Xuan, the high-ranking civil and military officials who had arrived in Liaodong had already arrived, and they were gathering together to chat.

After he left, the talents of the Jurchen tribes set off one after another, so Li Xuan was the first person to arrive among the envoys of the foreign domain.

"The moon is so round tonight......"

Ye Hemingen was burly, standing beside Li Xuan like a fierce beast.

This bastard, I'm going to break him into pieces...... Li Xuan clenched his fists.

Although Li Xuan did not meet Zhu Jinghong, he learned about the general movements of the Ming army, and the reality has proved that North Korea is in danger, how can he not be worried.

Let's talk about the main aisle, Zhu Jinghong just said a word casually, and heard the high-ranking officials present say even more unnutritious flattery.

Li Xuan came to the position closest to Zhu Jinghong because of his high title, and there was only less than two zhang between the two.

"Young Master Ye He, the banquet is about to start, you better sit back in your seat!"

After a pause, Baoqin said again: "Brother-in-law...... Why did you want the Korean princess to come to the banquet? This is not the place for her! ”

"In that case, then you should say something, let him not call the son of the world!" Bao Qin added.

Li Xuan noticed Zhu Jinghong at a glance, and this was the first time he had met this legendary figure.

A rough voice pulled Li Xuan out of his thoughts, and when he looked back, it was Ye He Mingen, whom he hated the most.

While explaining to himself, Ye Hemingen retreated to his position at the same time, and his anger towards Li Xuan became even heavier.

"Your Highness, you are clumsy...... It's hard to wait for the elegant hall, so the minister didn't take her with him, but he was afraid that she would collide with His Royal Highness! ”

Zhu Jinghong's eyes swept to the side, and standing here was Baoqin, who was pretending to be a little eunuch at the moment.

"To be loved by His Royal Highness is really Li Xuan's luck and North Korea's luck!"

And the content of what he talked about was mostly about the current situation, and Li Xuan changed the topic as soon as he got close to these people.

"The Mid-Autumn Festival moonlight is extremely beautiful tonight, and it is better to be happy alone than to be happy, so I will call you all together to enjoy the moon!"

Li Xuan was not ashamed, forcibly blended in with several officials, and tried every means to participate in the small talk of these people.

Hearing these words, Baoqin, who was following the little eunuch, almost laughed, she didn't expect that the big man who was rare to see on weekdays was as flattering as ordinary people at the moment.

Ye He Mingen was not afraid, and saw him say arrogantly: "I have fought with His Highness, I have killed enemies with His Highness, and I only have one loyalty!" ”

Li Xuan was thinking about it when he suddenly heard Zhu Jinghong shouting, so he immediately got up from the chair and respectfully faced Zhu Jinghong.

Not to mention, Li Xuan's knowledge is profound, and he is not inferior to just talking about poetry and songs.

"Your Highness, my father is sick in bed, it is really difficult to get up and hurry, I hope Your Highness will understand!"

Although he was rejected, Zhu Jinghong still smiled, and he was really happy to talk to Baoqin.

After finishing whispering, after Baoqin retreated, Zhu Jinghong raised his voice and shouted: "Li Xuan......"

This person is tall, and although his expression is calm, he has a strong and powerful power, which makes people dare not look at him directly...... This is Li Xuan's first feeling of Zhu Jinghong.

Zhu Jinghong's reaction was flat, and he didn't even say a word to himself, which made Li Xuan's mood more and more heavy, but he still had to show that he was happy.

Zhu Jinghong said with a smile: "On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, it was supposed to be the time when thousands of families were reunited, and since he came...... Why don't you bring her here! ”

At this time, she regretted it very much, she shouldn't have listened to the nonsense that she wanted to come to the banquet with the prince of the world as a sign of obedience, otherwise there would not be this situation in front of her.

Only then will it be easier for him to accept the matter and not suffer forever.

Hearing Zhu Jinghong's words, Li Xuan was stunned at this time, and he didn't know how to answer at the moment.

At this point, the matter is done, and Zhu Jinghong did not express his position during the whole process, so on the surface, this matter has nothing to do with him.

It's just a woman, and for the sake of national stability, it's nothing to give up...... In great pain in his heart, Li Xuan forcibly brainwashed himself.

At this time, Li Xuan looked at the main seat, but it was still empty, and the king of Xiang he wanted to meet still did not appear.

And Li Xuan, who was the closest, also activated his strongest brain at this time, and knelt and licked Zhu Jinghong in the most straightforward way.

"Brother-in-law, you'd better drink less!" Bao Qin persuaded.

What he said was the truth, an irrefutable fact, so Ye Hemingen was full of confidence.

After about a while, a eunuch came from outside, saying that the Korean princess had arrived, and Zhu Jinghong nodded for the first time to allow her to enter.

is five or six years younger than me, and he has already made both civil and military uniforms, and he shows the demeanor of a king with his gestures, so I might as well ......

There were all human spirits present, and there was no need for reaction time at all, so the flattery was handed over.

And he didn't speak, which indirectly showed his attitude, which made the Jurchen people scream even more fiercely.

"It's you...... The evil mind is calculated and calculated, what are you safe with? Ye Hemingen's tone was stern.

"The minister is here!"

The singing and dancing continued, and everyone toasted Zhu Jinghong one after another, and Li Xuan, who was in a very bad mood, also had to force a smile and join the toasting team.

"Your Highness, North Korea has made such a mistake, and the ministers are willing to send troops to teach them a lesson!"

North Korea has a "rebellious" heart, and tonight was supposed to make him ugly, as a warning to him, so Zhu Jinghong will not speak for Li Xuan.

But Li Xuan also felt that he wanted to talk about some practical things, so these people just messed around and didn't give him a chance to find out the news at all.

"I sent someone to North Korea to invite your father, but he didn't come...... Could it be that you look down on me? ”

So many people came one by one, Zhu Jinghong had already drunk two pots of wine, and Baoqin was really worried that he was drunk.

Out of the courtyard, Li Xuan got into a sedan chair and, accompanied by a group of attendants and officials, rushed towards the banquet venue.

Being looked at by so many men, Jin Youyan couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into, she always felt that she was not clean.

Time gradually passed, and when the people from the Jurchen tribes arrived, the banquet was about to begin.

Zhu Jinghong still didn't speak, but the smile on his face had disappeared, and there was a cold color in his eyes at this time.

He didn't speak, so naturally someone spoke for him.

Ye Hemingen stood on the moral high ground and scolded Li Xuan angrily, when a clear female voice suddenly sounded at the scene: "The veil is to prevent the wind, and now that it's time for the banquet, you should take it ......off."

"This general is a little calm, North Korea is so obedient to the Ming Dynasty, how can he snub His Royal Highness King Xiang!"
