On the first day of the lunar month, light snow.

At the beginning of the morning, the sky began to float with scattered small snowflakes, Chen Chao got up early and stood under the eaves and shivered from the cold, rubbing his hands vigorously, and snorting hot air into his palms, this time it was warmer.

Looking up at the snowflakes, Chen Chao drifted away in reverie.

Since leaving the eldest princess's mansion that day, the eldest princess really didn't ask him to go back.

I don't know if it's the requirement to be a slave that makes the noble eldest princess of Chu too embarrassed.

But Chen Chao doesn't care about those, the eldest princess Chu Yunmei, a crazy woman, if she wants to make a comeback in Daji, she must do it under his hands, and Chen Chao can't watch a terrifying force appear in Daji.

For Chu Yunmei, Chen Chao felt that her character was very similar to the crazy beauties who came out of the sick Jiaowen in later generations.

This type of person has a characteristic, he is wild and perverse in his heart, and he acts presumptuously and madly.

One second you can smile slightly, and the next second you can raise your eyes and change your face.

Such a woman is the most dangerous, like a ticking time bomb.

If you want this kind of person to be obedient, you have to tame her from the bones.

When thinking about this, Yue'e walked in front of Chen Chao, stretched out her hands, and sorted out the official robe for Chen Chao to enter the palace to meet Emperor Chu for a while, and said: "Xiangye, Madame has explained that I want to give Xiangye ...... every half a month."

In the end, the little girl's voice became smaller and smaller, and her face became redder and redder.

He lowered his head, not daring to look into Chen Chao's eyes.

Chen Chao stretched out his hand, patted her head, and said, "Don't worry, when I come back tonight, I must feast on you." ”

Yue'e was stunned when she heard this, her rosy little lips opened, and her pretty little face was both dazed and stunned..... Feast on it?

Yes?

What do you mean?

But soon, the smart Yue'e understood, and her round little face suddenly turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye, directly to the root behind her ears.

Then she didn't say a word, clenched the corners of her sleeves tightly, and ran back into the house as fast as she could.

Seeing Yue'e fleeing back in embarrassment, Chen Chao stood in place and laughed heartlessly.

In fact, sometimes, it's funny to tease the little girl.

……

Less.

Chen Chao and his entourage waited at the gate of the post house, took a carriage, and followed the old eunuch who came to announce the decree and slowly approached the imperial city.

What to do today, the most important thing is that the envoys and others will enter the palace to face the saints, and then Murong Chong, the main envoy of the mission, will negotiate with the Honglu Temple of Chu State on matters related to the marriage of the eldest princess.

Chen Chao sat in the carriage and said to Murong Chong, who looked nervous beside him:

"Enter the palace to meet the Emperor of Chu in a while, you don't talk much, the negotiation with Honglu Temple in the afternoon is your main battlefield, and the Emperor Chu will hand it over to me."

"Okay." Murong Chong nodded in response, couldn't help wiping the sweat oozing from the palms of Layue in the middle of winter, and glanced at Chen Chao gratefully.

The most difficult Chu Emperor, Chen Chao took the initiative to take over, and his task would be much easier.

He didn't know why he was nervous, on the battlefield of Yunzhou, he had never been so nervous in the face of thousands of enemy troops, but today's nervous palms were sweating, and he couldn't stop it.

It will take some time to reach the imperial city from the post house, Chen Chao leaned on the carriage, closed his eyes and recuperated, and said faintly: "When you are on the ship, I have taught you how to deal with things without being surprised, although it is a bit bluffing, but in some cases it is very useful, and you can use it during negotiations in the afternoon." ”

Murong Chong thought about it, took a breath, calmed down, and secretly looked forward to his performance in the afternoon negotiations.

After getting out of the carriage, the people of the mission followed the old eunuch and entered the palace of Chu State.

First walked through a deep doorway, and then the light suddenly brightened.

In the distance is a cascading, resplendent palace, a bereaved beast sits on the eaves and looks into the distance.

The Daji Palace is even more solemn and atmospheric, and the palace of Jinling highlights two words, rich.

The roofs of some palaces glisten in the refraction of the sun, and it's hard not to wonder if they're made of real gold.

Following the old eunuch, I don't know how long they walked, everyone came to a palace of great scale.

Looking up, there are countless jade steps.

At the end of the stairs is the main body of the palace, as if it was built in heaven.

Seeing that everyone in the mission opened their mouths and looked slightly distracted, the old eunuch was a little proud, thinking that these Daji people had never seen such a magnificent palace.

There were no words along the way, and everyone stepped up the steps to the main entrance of the palace.

After a simple body search at the door, the old eunuch waved the dust, raised his head and pulled his throat, and said in a hoarse voice: "The Daji delegation is here!" ”

Chen Chao led everyone to take confident steps and entered the main hall, first attracted by the golden dragon coiled above his head, the golden dragon has a rough body, teeth and claws, and its eyes are inlaid with two huge rubies.

Entering the palace, everyone in the mission slowly walked along the straight road in front of them under the gaze of the hundred officials of the Chu court.

The space inside the hall is large, and the thick columns support the high dome, and even the walking echoes are heard.

Seeing a group of people from the Daji delegation entering the city like countrymen, looking like they had never seen the world, the hundred officials of the Chu State looked at each other, and their faces invariably showed contemptuous expressions, most of the officials held the jade wat in their hands, their waists couldn't help but straighten a little, and the corners of their mouths were slightly pursed.

Emperor Chu was a fat man with a bloated body, and he was sitting upright on the dragon chair at the moment, his eyes swept around the faces of the envoys, and then fell on Chen Chao's face under the reminder of the eunuchs beside him.

Chen Chao looked at each other, his face always calm.

Emperor Chu is over 50 years old this year, and has reigned for more than 20 years.

This person is a bit lustful and likes to hold all kinds of banquets, but there are no obvious drawbacks other than that.

In general, a competent emperor.

When thinking about this, the eunuch beside the emperor shouted:

"Arrival of the Great Age Mission!"

"Kneel—"

The eunuch's voice fell for a long time, and the hall was quiet and strange. Several members of the Daji delegation represented by the Chen Dynasty stood in place, not moving at all, and their knees did not bend down.

After a long time, the hundred officials of the Chu State first couldn't stabilize and began to riot, and whispered to each other.

As soon as the civil officials were in the column, an elderly man walked out quickly, first waved at the Chu Emperor on the dragon chair, and then turned his head to the embassy in the center of the main hall, blew his beard and glared and shouted:

"As courtiers, what is the reason why you don't kneel to the emperor? Do you still have the etiquette of kings and ministers in your eyes? ”
