Chapter 134: Departure Mission

Chen Mo took the holy decree in his hand and slowly stepped back.

Most of the civil and military officials were surprised, and they really couldn't understand why His Majesty would use Chen Mo, a military attachΓ©, as an envoy to the north.

However, there are many officials who already knew about it and are not surprised now.

After rewarding many new science and technology scholars, there were no major events at the court meeting, and a few officials played and talked about small things.

"Brother Chen, why did the imperial court give you a civil position again, and let you leave the north as an envoy?"

When the meeting dispersed, Li Shenyu hurriedly approached Chen Mo's side and asked puzzledly.

"This matter is related to the imperial court's plan, so don't ask more."

Chen Mo shook his head with a smile and didn't explain to him.

Li Shenyu thought a little and didn't dare to ask more.

Walking all the way back to his home, the palace housekeepers have successively sent the seal letter from the court dress and honor guard of the fourth official, and the same holy decree was sent with it.

"Fengtian carries the emperor, I say, I have heard it, Zhao Yu, the wife of Chen Mo, a man from Aoki County, is virtuous and virtuous, and shows off his wisdom.

Now I will give him a wife from the four grades, and I hope that the husband and wife will be married forever and be together for a hundred years! ”

The palace priests who came to read the holy decree spoke loudly.

Zhao Yu was stunned for a moment, then his eyes couldn't help but show surprise, and he turned his head to look at Chen Mo, with tears faintly flashing between his eyes.

She knew that this edict must have been asked for by Chen Mo for herself.

For a while, the joy in my heart was indescribable, and I just looked at Chen Mo blankly.

"Don't take the decree yet." He gently pushed Zhao Yu, and then she reacted, stepped forward in three steps and two steps, bowed down and bowed, "Your Majesty, Minnu Xie!" ”

Chen Mo skillfully took out the silver from his bosom and rewarded the palace housekeepers who came to deliver the message.

"Husband!" Zhao Yu accepted the holy decree, turned around and hugged Chen Mo tightly, refusing to let go for a moment.

"Are you happy, you will also be a court wife in the future." Chen Mo smiled lightly and also reached out to hug her.

"Hmm." Zhao Yu responded, and tears slipped down on that beautiful cheek.

"Thank you." She spoke softly and thanked her very seriously.

She knew that her decree was not easy to come by, and as a reward, it was by no means easy to obtain, and Chen Mo must have spent a lot of effort to help her get it.

"Let's be husband and wife, and say what outsiders say. That's what you told me, why did you forget it today? ”

Chen Mo smiled, skillfully took out a handkerchief from Zhao Yu's arms, and wiped away her tears.

"Hmm." Zhao Yu nodded again.

"But I also have to tell you one thing, in a little while, I will make a trip to the north as a special envoy, and it is estimated that it will take several months to return."

Chen Mo spoke softly and told her about himself and what he was going to do next.

"Ahh You're going to leave the north, isn't that dangerous? Zhao Yu looked slightly worried.

Her knowledge of Beili was limited to the inflow of goods from Beili in the capital, and she had seen these and knew that Beili was hostile to Daqian, but she didn't know anything else.

"The two countries are at war, if you don't kill the envoy, I am going to send an envoy, how can it be dangerous." Chen Mo laughed and said with relief.

He was telling the truth, and the danger he faced this time was definitely not from the north.

There may be people in Beili who want to obstruct the peace talks, but no one will want to kill him.

Unless they intend to completely tear their faces with the big cadres and start a war right now. Or Chen Mo took the initiative to provoke trouble, forced Beili to kill him, and then started the war with this.

Otherwise, the people of Beili will never take the initiative to attack him, and even if Chen Mo dies in Beili, it will lead to another war between the two countries.

If there were no Demon Dao and foreign powerhouses to intervene, this mission would definitely not be dangerous.

"That's good, it's just that you're going so far this time, you still have to be careful on the road."

Zhao Yu still had a cautious look on her face, she didn't know much about Beili, but she also knew that going far away was not a safe thing.

"Don't worry, I'll go with the imperial mission." Chen Mo smiled and opened his mouth to relieve her, and took her hand and walked into the study.

Zhao Yu studied ink and laid paper for him, and Chen Mo poured ink and wrote letters.

He has obtained the title of champion and has been awarded an official by the imperial court, of course, these things should be told to his father-in-law.

After writing the letter, the next day, Chen Mo went straight to the Ministry of Rites.

Sending an envoy to the north is what the Ministry of Rites needs to do, and of course he, the envoy, must also be involved.

The specific matters of peace talks are the responsibility of the officials of the Ministry of Rites, but many matters must be brought forward by him at that time.

In addition, he had to find out what the situation was, and see what was a chance that the peace talks would succeed.

In the next ten days, Chen Mo either practiced the Liuhe Halberd Method, or learned about the situation of the North Departure in the Ministry of Rites.

Unlike the founding Taizu of Daqian, who founded the country by force, the reason why Beili was able to establish it was mainly because of the merits of many great families.

Therefore, in the north away from the court, the family occupies a lot of weight, and the power of the Son of Heaven is far less than that of the great cadres.

Therefore, there is a 50 percent chance that the peace talks will succeed.

The Beili Imperial Family also did not want to continue the war with the Great Qian, and once the war continued, they would have to rely more on the Great Family.

If there is a chance to negotiate peace, the royal family joins forces with many small and medium-sized families, and still wants to negotiate peace.

As long as peace can be successfully negotiated, with the strength of those great families alone, they will not be able to start a war lightly.

The Northern Imperial Family also has the ability to improve their internal situation.

Daqian does have a lot of problems, but the north is not much better.

The two countries are never better than the other, but less bad than the other.

Both sides are like two decaying giants, waiting for the other to fall first, so that they can devour each other's flesh and blood and prolong their lives.

Half a month passed in a blink of an eye, and the time came to the eighth day of the sixth month, and today was the auspicious day selected by the Heavenly Supervisor.

Chen Mo prepared early, dressed in a fourth-grade official robe, and the weapons and armor were all placed in the storage bag first.

Zhao Yu also prepared a lot of dry food for him, which is now also in a storage bag.

As a separate space, the storage bag also has the concept of time passing inside.

What is stored in it, of course, will also break over time.

However, because it is isolated from the inside and outside, it will not be contaminated in any way, so the storage time will be slightly longer.

"Engong, this is the spiritual liquid that I have condensed during this time."

Wei Xia took over seven or eight porcelain vases and handed them to Chen Mo with a serious face.

After Chen Mo and Zhao Yu's discussion, a row of side rooms was set aside in her small courtyard for Wei Xia to live in, and this row of side rooms was turned into her own ghost domain, in which she could physically move.

Anyone who walks into it will be trapped in the ghost realm she is in.

Ordinary maids are naturally not allowed to enter this row of chambers, but Zhao Yu often brings some fruits to eat and eat, and chats with Wei Xia to relieve boredom.

Chen Mo would occasionally go in to chat with her, and even wrote two letters to He Luoyun, asking him about Wei Xia's family.

"It will take me months to come back, everything is safe in the inner city, you just don't run around." Chen Mo carefully admonished.

Ghosts are indeed precious, but it also depends on whose hands they are, and naturally no one will dare to take them in their own hands.

"The little woman understands." Wei Xia nodded obediently and saluted Chen Mofu again, "I wish Engong a safe journey." ”

Chen Mo smiled at her and turned to leave, Zhao Yu followed him all the time, his eyes were full of reluctance, but he didn't say a word.

Beili is not like other places, it is too far away, she can't stop worrying, afraid that Chen Mo will never return.

"Don't worry, I will go on an envoy this time, there will be no problems, just wait for me to come back at home.

When the time comes, I will go to the capital of the northern part of the country to have a look, and if there is anything new, I will buy some and bring it back to you. ”

Chen Mo took her into his arms and comforted her softly.

Zhao Yu hugged him tightly, but finally slowly let go.

"Be careful, I'll be waiting for you at home." She stood in front of the door and admonished.

"Okay, I'll definitely come back to eat the food you cooked for me, and I'll want to eat sweet and sour fish again when the time comes." Chen Mo smiled, held hands and made an appointment with her.

"Okay." Zhao Yu looked serious and nodded vigorously in agreement.

Chen Mo waved his hand at her and motioned for her to go back to the house, while he strode towards the inner city and the outside.

Zhao Yu stood in front of the door and watched until Chen Mo's figure disappeared completely.

She was worried, but she believed that Chen Mo would definitely be able to come back, such a scene had happened many times, whether it was her or Chen Mo, the two had never missed the appointment.

Outside the inner city, the mission had already reorganized its carriages and horses, and it was only waiting for the auspicious time to leave.

The specifications of this mission were extremely high, and the chariots and horses used were all royal horses, in order to reach the capital of the northern country faster.

This royal horse was born with a miracle, although it could not travel 800 miles a day and a thousand miles at night.

can still carry the weight of a thousand catties, galloping 500 miles in one day.

The most important thing is to rest for the night, feed some good grain and grass and special horse food pills made by the royal family, and the horse can continue to gallop wildly.

That's all that matters.

Between the capital of Daqian and the capital of the country, there are 15,000 miles away, and if you ride an ordinary horse, you have to go to the year of the monkey.

This time I went to the peace talks, in addition to the national letter, I also prepared a full six cars of national gifts, which are quite valuable, even if the congenital strong will be moved.

"Envoy Chen." A sturdy man, with several scars on his face, and a fierce demeanor, was sitting in the carriage resting, when he saw Chen Mo coming and hurriedly saluting.

"Senior, please get up, I have to trouble my seniors and me to run back and forth along the way."

Chen Mo helped him up, of course the person in front of him was not the Ministry of Rites, but he was temporarily awarded the position of the Ministry of Rites, so as to facilitate this mission.

There were more than 40 people in the mission, and in addition to Chen Mo, there were two other martial artists to protect the mission.

In addition, there are innate powerhouses guarding in the dark, and if the demon path or the innate powerhouses of different races show up, these powerhouses will take action.

"If you don't want to be called a general's senior, just call me old money." Qian Jiu grinned, his demeanor was very respectful.

didn't really put on the shelf of a predecessor because of Chen Mo's senior's title.

"Chief, this time, in addition to me, there are ten brothers from the Tongmai Realm as guards, and now everyone has arrived."

Zhao Wen walked in front of Chen Mo and bowed.

He is also an acquired cultivator, leading the other ten Yulin as the escort of the mission.

"Let's rest for now, and wait for the auspicious time." Chen Mo waved his hand, and he didn't plan to talk nonsense.

Time blink of an eye, the auspicious time is approaching, and the Son of Heaven personally led hundreds of civil and military officials to send the delegation out of Beijing.

The streets have long been under martial law, and countless imperial courts have forbidden troops to clear a road leading to the city gate.

"The auspicious time has come!" A loud shout rang out, and the chimes that had been prepared were played, which was the ceremonial music of sending envoys to the enemy country, a bit like an expedition, but relatively peaceful.

Chen Mo rode his horse at the forefront of the mission, and the rest followed.

All the way to the gate of the capital, he stopped, turned over and dismounted.

"Aiqing went this time, but I wanted to protect myself." Zhao Huaili explained in a low voice.

He knew that this matter was dangerous, and he didn't say anything else at this time, just asked Chen Mo to protect himself as much as possible.

"Wechen will not be dishonored!" Chen Mo bowed, and everyone in the mission bowed down when they saw this.

Finally, bid farewell to the Son of Heaven, and the mission officially set off and left the north!

Correction: The previous chapter has been revised, and the protagonist's current official position is from the general of the fourth rank Xuanwu, and the position of the waiter of the Ministry of Rites is temporarily granted for the convenience of the envoy.
