Shen Ning didn't know when she fell asleep.
She slept deeply and soundly.
When she woke up, she vaguely felt that there was something warm beside her. When she opened her eyes, she found that Xiaoru was curled up at her feet like a kitten, sleeping very soundly, with a trace of blood flowing from the corner of her mouth. Glistening saliva.
She couldn't help but smile.
Seeing Xiaoru looking so careless always made her feel satisfied and warm.
This palace was not as cold as she imagined. It was not only Mo Chuan but also Xiao Ru.
The two of them were like two warm flames. Just seeing them made her heart warm.
She did not wake up Xiao Ru, and gently pulled the quilt to cover her body. Then she quietly got out of bed, walked to the window, opened the window, and took a deep breath of fresh air.
"Miss, are you up?" Xiaoru's sleepy voice came from behind.
Xiaoru rubbed her eyes and looked at the condensed figure standing in front of the window. Only then did she realize that she was lying on the corner of the bed and fell asleep, and she immediately beat her head in frustration.
"Ah, this slave is really damned. He actually slept like a dead pig and even forgot the important things ordered by the emperor."
"The important thing Mo Chuan asked you to do? What is it?" Shen Ning turned around in surprise.
"Before the emperor left, he had ordered your maid to go to the North Gate Tower if the eldest lady woke up. But when the maid came in and saw you sleeping so soundly, eldest lady, I didn't have the heart to call you. No. Somehow, this slave actually fell asleep. If this delays the emperor’s important event, the emperor will have to chop off this slave’s head when he comes back.”
"Going to the North Gate Tower?"
Shen Ning thought for a while and understood. She remembered that Mo Chuan mentioned before leaving that today he would lead the civil and military officials to send the Northern Qi envoy back to the north. Thinking about it, he hoped that he could also go to see him off. After all, he was a country. Afterwards, it was also my duty to show up at such a grand and grand national ceremony.
She raised her head and glanced at the sky outside. It was not yet past noon, so she changed into the queen's clothes, boarded the sedan chair, and rushed to the north gate tower under the escort of Zhui Feng and a group of royal guards.
From a distance, I could see the huge farewell procession at the North Gate Tower.
In order to show his respect for the Northern Qi envoy, Mo Chuan personally led all the civil and military officials to see him off.
The Royal Guardsmen were wearing armor and bright clothes. Looking at them, they looked like a long and majestic dragon, with no end visible at a glance.
The Northern Qi envoy looked at the scene in front of him with a lot of emotions in his heart.
Before he went to Xi Chu as an envoy, he didn't think much of Xi Chu, who had few soldiers and generals, and he didn't have much respect for Mo Chuan, a young emperor. He expected that he was just a young boy with yellow hair. It was only with the support of the Queen Mother of Zhou that she ascended to the throne. After taking the throne, she invited the Eastern Qin Dynasty to pay annual tribute every year. It was extremely hopeless!
Northern Qi has always been in a neutral position among the four countries, and it is also the target of friendship with the other three countries.
Because they not only hold the coveted black iron veins, they are also famous for being good at forging weapons. It is said that Qi Yanyu, the world's best weapons maker, is a native of the Northern Qi Dynasty.
The five-repeated crossbow that he personally designed and produced shocked the world in one fell swoop, making the Northern Qi Kingdom, which did not have a strong military force, become inviolable in the face of powerful enemies!
