Chapter 123, the Yue clan is coming
Chen Qi and Ding Muxi said goodbye to Xixia Temple and took Ouyang Susu to Qingzhou.
Originally, Meng Bufan and Meng Xiaofan wanted to follow them, but they were rejected by Chen Qiding Muxi. At this time, the safest place should be Xixia Temple. What they were going to do was extremely dangerous, and they couldn't let the two of them follow.
Seeing that the two were determined, Meng Bufan no longer insisted on it. Although he was worried about the two children, he also knew that with his and Meng Xiaofan's martial arts, following the two would probably only drag him down.
Meng Xiaofan wanted to follow the two very much, but no matter how much he pleaded, he didn't get permission, so he was very unhappy. Especially looking at the backs of the three of them when they went down the mountain, he had mixed feelings in his heart.
Chen Qi and Ding Muxi sent Ouyang Susu to the restaurant opened by Qingzhou Butterfly Villa, and then left.
Looking at the two, Ouyang Susu was very envious, even a little jealous, but when they separated, she still smiled and said goodbye to the two.
In fact, Chen Qi and Ding Muxi returned to the capital after leaving Qingzhou, but they didn't let Ouyang Susu go with them, because they were afraid that this young lady of the Ouyang family would always follow them.
Now the two of them just want to be carefree, it's a mutual decision between the two of them.
Of course, this carelessness refers to people other than the two of them. The two of them are naturally full of each other in their hearts and care about each other.
In Tianwen Mountain, Ding Yuanshan and his wife rarely mentioned Mu Hong, and Chen Qi and Ding Muxi only had some understanding of Mu Hong's sword battles back then, and they were not very clear. But recently, they have learned in detail how Mu Hong acted chivalrous and righteous back then, and the two of them have incomparable worship for their ancestors in their hearts. Nowadays, when the rivers and lakes are in trouble, they also want to be like their ancestors.
The Tianyi Sect is rampant, but its whereabouts are extremely secretive, and the targets they choose to shoot are not fixed, so they can't find their traces for the time being.
Last time he fought against the Tianyi Sect at the foot of the Cloud Piercing Mountain, although he captured Elder Zhou, Elder Chen, and Hall Master Xie, these three people never spoke.
The only one who can find clues to Tianyi Sect is King Cheng, so Chen Qi and Ding Muxi want to go to the capital to help Ji Xuan deal with King Cheng and force Tianyi Sect to show up.
When the two returned to the capital, they got a message from Ji Xuan that Ji Min was back.
A few days after Ji Min returned to Beijing, a news came from Xilan, that the young master of the Yue clan would lead an envoy to the capital and spend the New Year in the capital.
The young master of the Yue clan went to the capital, this was the first time. Although it has been nearly a hundred years since the west slope returned to the Great Wei, and the Great Wei sent envoys to the west slope every year, the Yue clan rarely sent people to the capital. Occasionally, he sent someone in, but at most he was just an elder.
But this time, the young master of the Yue clan actually came, and he came on his own initiative.
That's big news.
King Cheng had already gotten the news from Ji Min, and he was very happy. He had a plan, but the Yue clan was a variable, so he sent Ji Min to befriend the Yue clan. Although Ji Min did not bring back the clear attitude of the Yue clan, he brought back the news that the Yue clan's great Tusi would send someone to Beijing to talk to him in detail.
King Cheng knew that it was not the young master of the Yue clan who really came to discuss things with him, but the elder of the Yue clan, Yue Kun. But being able to send his son to the capital at this time also represents the attitude of the Yue family's great toast. If he has the support of the Yue clan this time, then his plan will go very smoothly.
Of course, Ji Min also told King Cheng that the young master of the Yue clan seemed to have an opinion on him, but what could this do? Now the Yue clan is still in charge of the big toast, as long as the big toast agrees to his own conditions.
is friendly with the Yue clan, only a few people closest to King Cheng know, and the other vassals don't know anything.
When this news came, the government and the opposition of the Great Wei Dynasty were talking about the purpose of the young master of the Yue clan coming to Beijing at this time.
For the arrival of the young master of the Yue clan, in addition to becoming the king, there is Ji Xuan who is most concerned.
Although Ding Muxi said that King Cheng's envoy went to the west, but there is no way to know what deal the two sides finally reached, and this time the young lord of the Yue clan may come to Beijing as an opportunity.
When the young lord of the Yue clan came to Beijing, he naturally came to the imperial court, so the reception work naturally needed to be done by the imperial court. But who to send to receive the young master of the Yue clan has become a problem.
King Cheng naturally wanted to take over this errand, but Ji Xuan also had his own purpose, how could he let King Cheng succeed easily.
The two brothers fought over the court.
King Cheng said that when Ji Xuan first returned to the capital, he was not familiar with everything, and the young master of the Yue family was an important guest, and if he received him, it would inevitably be rude.
And Ji Xuan said that it was precisely because he was not familiar with everything in the capital that this reception of the young master of the Yue clan was an opportunity to exercise. All reception etiquette is arranged by the Ministry of Etiquette, and he does it, where will it be rude?
King Cheng retorted, it's not impossible to exercise, but an important guest like the young master of the Yue clan must not be used for exercise.
Of course, Ji Xuan disagreed with King Cheng's statement, although the young master of the Yue clan was important, he was also a subject of Great Wei, and he was the king of Qi of Great Wei, as long as he treated him politely, he would leave them speechless.
......
There was a lot of arguing, and the final decision was still with the emperor.
King Cheng has been by the emperor's side since he was a child, while Ji Xuan is far away in the rivers and lakes, so naturally King Cheng is closer to the emperor. It was only in recent years that the emperor was dissatisfied with what King Cheng had done, and in order to give him a sense of crisis and let him know his way back, the emperor thought of letting Ji Xuan come back to check and balance him. In the emperor's heart, Cheng Wang is also the successor to the throne.
Seeing the two brothers arguing around, the emperor was upset, and he fell ill for a while and fainted, but he said half a sentence before he fell unconscious, "Let King Qi ......"
Because the emperor was in a coma, he had no way of knowing his full meaning, but Ji Xuan relied on this half sentence to take over the errand of receiving the young master of the Yue clan, although King Cheng was not convinced, he couldn't find a reason to object.
Whether this errand is accepted or not has no impact on Chengwang's plan. What he fought for, firstly, he didn't want Ji Xuan to have a chance to show his face, and secondly, he wanted to befriend the younger master.
Although the Yue clan is now in charge of the big toast, the young master of the Yue clan is the next big toast after all, and if he is good now, it will be easier for the two sides to deal with each other in the future.
Although he has lost this errand, as the prince of Great Wei, it is not difficult to get close to the younger master. It's just that the young master of the Yue clan has an attitude towards himself......
"If it doesn't work, let them have civil strife. ”
......
After taking over this errand, he needed to make good use of it and find out useful information from the young master of the Yue clan, so Ji Xuan convened everyone in the palace to discuss.
Ding Muxi said first: "The Yue clan is mysterious and secretive, I have fought with this young master, and his martial arts are okay, but he is oily and smooth, which is very annoying." ”
Guo Dongming smiled: "Maybe we can use his oil cavity to slip the tone." ”
Ding Muxi feigned anger: "If you say this again, be careful that I hit you." ”
Guo Dongming said: "Brother Chen is not angry yet, why are you angry?"
Ding Muxi said: "Because you're talking about me." ”
Chen Qi smiled: "Brother Guo is getting better and better at laughing now. ”
This time Chen Qi said this, and everyone understood what was going on.
Ji Xuan said: "No matter what kind of person he is, I will treat him with sincerity, and I can do my best as for the result." ”
Gong Que said: "The Yue clan likes to study medicinal herbs, and I heard that this young master of the Yue clan is also a master of poisoning, and I will meet him when the time comes." ”
Chen Qi said with a smile: "This is called meeting friends with poison, maybe you will really become friends in the end." ”
Ding Muxi said: "When I fought with him that day, there was poison on his flying needle, but Brother Guo saw it at a glance." I think that since he can be seen by Brother Guo at a glance, his ability to use poison is definitely not as good as Brother Gong. ”
Gong Que smiled: "Miss Ding is wrong, the second junior brother's ability to recognize and distinguish drugs is not under me. ”
Ding Muxi said: "It's rare to hear you praise him." ”
......
After some jokes, several people returned to business and discussed how they could find out the news from the young master of the Yue clan......
