Qi State, Qianqing Palace.
Zhao Yong met the envoy of Jin Kingdom in the main hall. When he saw the image of the dagger, he was sure that Murong Zhan did not send someone to look for him for no reason. Maybe he had already checked it out, otherwise how could people Come to Qi.
"You are the envoy from Jin Kingdom?" Zhao Yong looked at Song Jiong coldly. He has lived for thirty-five years, and he has already seen countless people. At a glance, he can tell that Song Jiong is not a member of the imperial court, but the Murong Zhan sect. What does it mean that such a person comes
Song Jiong originally wanted to learn how to be an official, but Murong Ke told him that he didn't need to learn anything, and that he should do whatever he wanted, so he just appeared in front of Zhao Yong with a bit of quack air.
"Yes, our emperor sent you a message personally." Song Jiong said with a smile.
"Master Song, where did you lead the job in the capital?" Zhao Yong asked with a half-smile.
Song Jiong's smile remained unchanged, "I'm dissatisfied with the emperor, I'm actually just an idler. It's our emperor who wants to be promoted, so he let me take such an important matter to come to Qi."
"Did you find this ancient sword in Huajia Village?" Zhao Yong waved the drawing paper in his hand. He didn't care what Song Jiong's identity was. A man with an ancient sword.
"Yes." Song Jiong actually didn't know how to talk to Zhao Yong in his heart, anyway, it was enough to answer one sentence.
Zhao Yong sneered, "Huajia Village is secretive, and it's not easy for ordinary people to find it. How did you get in? How did you find my daughter by such a coincidence?"
Song Jiong frowned, should it be because Murong Zhan accidentally fell off the cliff
"You'd better not hide anything from me." Zhao Yong said coldly.
In the main hall, the guards on both sides were already looking at Song Jiong coldly, as if they would kill him immediately just waiting for Zhao Yong's order.
If it was a minister of the Kingdom of Jin, he would definitely kneel down and look for reasons at this time. Even if he was beaten to death, he would not say that their emperor almost died in Huajia Village. Unfortunately, Song Jiong is not a minister of the Kingdom of Jin. Faithful enough to die for him.
"Actually... that's because our emperor accidentally fell off a cliff and was rescued in Huajia Village. We found Huajia Village under the guidance of others. There is a fisher girl... I am talking about the princess of your country. She said her name is Zhao Ning, I want our emperor to take her away from Huajia Village to find her biological father, so that's it." Song Jiong said half-truthfully.
Zhao Yong did not doubt Song Jiong's words. When he saw the blueprint of the ancient sword, he had already had someone check it out. At that time, Jin Guo captured Anhe City, but Mo Rongzhan and Lu Lingzhi met in Anhe City. Both are missing.
It seems that what they said is not wrong, this Zhao Ning may really be the daughter he accidentally left behind, but he did not expect that the fisher girl would give birth to a daughter for him, he has already forgotten what the fisher girl looked like.
"I will send someone to accompany you back to the country of Jin. If Zhao Ning is really my daughter, I will definitely thank the emperor of your country." Zhao Yong said flatly, making Song Jiong retreat.
Song Jiong also wanted to ask when he would send someone back to Jin Kingdom, but seeing Zhao Yong's face, he thought it best not to ask for now, anyway, he could leave whenever he should, the sixth prince told him not to worry.
After Zhao Yong dismissed Song Jiong, he returned to the imperial study, and after a while, several of his confidant ministers came.
"I want to go to the Kingdom of Jin in person, what do you think?" Zhao Yong glanced at his most trusted ministers indifferently.
Prime Minister Dai Shi raised his eyes and glanced, "Is the emperor planning to pick up the princess in person, or do you want to see the most beautiful woman in the world in Jin Kingdom and want to see it with your own eyes?"
Zhao Yong was stopped by Dai Shi's simple and rude question, he looked at the prime minister silently, wondering if this prime minister was his favorite minister, he really wanted to beat him out, "I'm not so horny."
Everyone else was silent, the words of the emperor are too convincing, the whole world knows that their emperor is the most beautiful, okay
"Your Majesty, you personally go to pick up the princess who is living abroad. It's a little...not good for the other four princesses in the palace." The middle-aged man standing next to Dai Shi said with a frown.
There are already four princesses in the palace. The eldest princess is from the former queen, and she is already engaged in marriage. Because she is the eldest princess and the only descendant, she is very majestic in the palace. Look down on her, and then there is the second princess from Concubine De, who has been betrothed to the second son of Zhen Guohou, who is also Song Hongao's younger brother. Gu Yue first raised his head and glanced at Song Hongao on the opposite side. The other two princesses are only thirteen this year. They are not yet married, because their biological mother is not favored, and they have nothing to rely on in the palace. However, no one dares to underestimate these princesses. It is usually heard that there is some discord between them, because Zhao Yong treats everyone equally, so there is nothing wrong with them harmonious thing.
If Zhao Yong went to pick up another princess in person, it would break the balance among the four princesses.
This princess who has not yet returned to the palace may become the target of public criticism. The first one who will not let her go should be the two princesses who are not yet married. As for the eldest princess... that depends on whether she is willing to accept and win over the new princess. up.
After listening to Gu Yuexian's words, Zhao Yong nodded thoughtfully, "You're right..."
Just because you're right doesn't mean this old man will listen! Everyone else was thinking silently in their hearts.
"I have been in the emperor for the past few years and have never been out." Zhao Yong sighed, looking unlovable, "Beiming Kingdom and Jin Kingdom Xiliang had a great time fighting, and Mo Rongzhan was able to conquer it himself." Go and play, why no one came to play with me."
"..." Dai Shi and Gu Yue were speechless for a while, isn't it good that other countries dare not come to fight against Qi? It proves that Qi State is still strong, and no one dares to provoke them.
Zhao Yong sighed again, "Invincible is the most lonely."
Song Hongao, who had been silent all this time, said blankly, "Your Majesty can go to Jin Kingdom in disguise, don't you want to send an envoy to pick up the princess?"
"Hong Ao, you are really my confidant." Zhao Yong's eyes lit up, and he laughed loudly, "I can be this messenger myself, right?"
Dai Shi shouted, "Your Majesty, you just met the Jin Kingdom envoy today, and he knows what you look like."
Zhao Yong's smile froze, he didn't find a substitute to meet Song Jiong today!
"If you change your face a little, you won't be able to see it naturally." Song Hongao said, in fact, he really wanted to leave the imperial capital to have fun.
"Okay, let's do it like this!" Zhao Yong clapped his hands, "Hong Ao went with me to Jin Kingdom, but I want to know what kind of person Murong Zhan is, so the imperial capital will be handed over to the two lovers. "
Song Hongao smiled slightly, "Yes, Your Majesty."
