When Xiao Man heard this, he was a little disinterested and glanced at Qian Jiujiu: "I'm just curious about what the people from the Qian country look like. What do you do when you see them?"
Qian Jiujiu also found it funny when he heard this: "Then what's there to be curious about? Aren't the people of the Qian Kingdom the same as the people of the Zhou Dynasty? They both have one nose and two eyes, and they can have three heads and six arms."
"The only difference is that the people in the Qian Kingdom are all poisonous, just like the Miao Territory we knew in the previous life, and the service is similar to that there."
As soon as he said this, Xiaoman understood immediately: "Since this is the case, there is no need to be curious. It's just that I always feel that these Qianguo people are here a little strangely."
Qian Jiujiu nodded: "I agree with this, but we will always know the purpose of these people coming. The days are long. Besides, we are the ones hiding behind them."
"After tomorrow, Mu Yexing will handle everything."
Xiao Man also thought of this. The two sisters looked at each other and smiled. They did not talk much, but did what they were doing. The night passed by in a flash, and the people of Qian Country were also very peaceful and kept to themselves.
Nothing happened until the next day, during the morning court, when the personal eunuch beside the emperor took out the imperial edict and prepared to read it out, naming Mu Yexing as the prince.
Then I saw a guard entering the hall from outside: "Your Majesty, an envoy from the State of Qian is here to visit."
All the ministers and the emperor were confused. Envoy from Qian State? Are they the group of Qianguo people from yesterday? Then why didn't you come yesterday? Why come today
Moreover, it was chosen at this time, just when the crown prince was to be enthroned again. Although the content of the imperial edict had not been read out yet, everyone knew the recent news.
And now it is almost understood that the content of the imperial edict is nothing more than to make Mu Yexing the prince, but now it was interrupted. Thinking of this, the expressions of all the ministers became a little subtle.
The emperor frowned, but whatever was supposed to come would still come. If the other party was really prepared, he would definitely not be able to escape.
Thinking of this, the emperor could only say: "Xuan."
After the harem, the Queen and Concubine Qing were already ready. They were waiting for the Emperor to attend the morning court and then accompanied the Emperor to Prince Xiao's Mansion to see the Emperor's grandson. However, the original time came and the Emperor did not come.
The queen then asked someone to go and inquire about what had happened in the morning. On the court side, after the emperor's order came out, the sharp voice of the eunuch sounded.
"The envoy from Xuanqian Kingdom is here to see you!"
The leader of the Qian Kingdom, whose name is He Lu Qingqi, is about 40 years old this year. When he came to the court, he just stood and looked at the emperor: "King Ming of the Qian Kingdom, He Lu Qingqi has met His Majesty the Emperor of Zhou."
The Ming King of the Qian Kingdom is also a famous figure. The Qian Kingdom's current situation is partly due to the contribution of the Ming King of the Qian Kingdom. He was brave and good at fighting at this time.
His status within the Qian Kingdom is similar to that of Mu Yexiao, the God of War of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Therefore, as the emperor of the Great Zhou Kingdom, how could he not have heard of the name of King Ming of the Qian Kingdom
So when he found out that the person coming was King Ming of Qian Kingdom, the emperor was still stunned for a moment, but he quickly came to his senses: "Your Highness, King Ming, please be free."
After Helu Qingqi stood up, he looked at the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, this is the credential of our Qian Kingdom for this visit. Please take a look at it, your Majesty."
After saying that, King Ming directly handed over the certificate of credence. The little eunuch beside the emperor took the letter of credence directly and put it in front of the emperor. The emperor glanced at King Ming.
Then he took the credentials and started reading them for a while. The emperor only felt that his head was as big as two heads because of the King Ming in front of him.
He actually came here to look for relatives, and the person he was looking for was Prince Ming's sister, named He Luqing. In this big world, how could he possibly find someone who had been missing for more than thirty years
As long as you find it, you can gain the friendship of the Qian Kingdom. Now that the three countries are at odds, who can gain the friendship of the Qian Kingdom is crucial.
Thinking of this, the emperor coughed twice: "I already know the purpose of Prince Ming's visit, and I will try my best to help you. It just so happens that you came at the right time."
"Just in time to attend the canonization ceremony of the crown prince of my country."
When King Ming heard this, he frowned, but he quickly replied: "Then congratulations to His Highness the Crown Prince of Zhou. Who is His Highness the Crown Prince?"
After hearing this, the emperor burst out laughing: "Please wait a moment, Prince Ming."
After finishing speaking, the emperor glanced at the eunuch beside him: "Declare the decree."
The eunuch finally seized the opportunity and opened the imperial edict: "By the fate of heaven, the emperor decreed that the fifth prince, Mu Yexing, was granted the title of crown prince. He will be in the East Palace, with a lineage of ten thousand years, and the heart of the four seas... "
A long list of imperial edicts was read, but the ministers only heard one important point, that is, the fifth prince Mu Yexing had become the prince of Zhou Dynasty.
At the moment when the imperial edict was finished, all the ministers knelt on the ground: "I am here to see His Highness the Crown Prince. Your Highness is a thousand years old."
Mu Yexing glanced at the ministers: "Everyone, get up."
The other King Ming glanced at Mu Yexing. This man looked very similar to the portrait they received. He looked at Mu Yexing with some confusion: "Are you the prince Mu Yexing?"
"Then what about your God of War, Mu Ye Xiaoxiao King? Just now, Xiao Wang almost recognized you as His Highness Xiaowang."
Mu Yexing raised his eyebrows and glanced at King Ming: "It turns out that King Ming also knows about my brother. It's a pity that my brother is at the border now!"
Of course Prince Ming knew about Mu Yexiao's stay at the border, but it was naturally useful to mention it at this time: "Oh, really? Then the canonization of the crown prince in the Great Zhou Dynasty is such an important thing."
"His Royal Highness Xiao Wang won't come back?"
This question actually stopped the emperor and others. Yes, for such a big matter as the crown prince's canonization, it seems impossible if King Xiao doesn't come back. Mu Yexing looked a little embarrassed.
The emperor coughed twice: "King Ming misunderstood. On the day of the canonization, King Xiao will rush back from the border. How can he not come back for such a big event?"
It's just that the emperor was a little worried when he said this. The current border affairs were all reported by Mu Yexing last time. Apart from recapturing a city, the situation didn't seem to be very good.
Would it be too tiring for Mu Yexiao to come back, attend the canonization ceremony, and then leave? The emperor immediately thought of another thing, that is, Qian Jiujiu was also going to the border.
In this case, let Mu Yexiao come back and take Qian Jiujiu with him. Qian Jiujiu and Mu Yexiao must have agreed, after thinking about this.
The emperor finally found some confidence. When he goes to Prince Xiao's Mansion later, he can talk to Qian Jiujiu about this matter. After King Ming got the answer.
He was no longer in a hurry and looked at the emperor: "Then Emperor Zhou, please excuse me while we are doing state affairs. Xiao Wang will leave first."
The emperor still needs to be concerned at this time: "Since you are my guests in the Great Zhou Dynasty, I will ask someone to arrange the inn and make sure to entertain the envoys of the Qian Kingdom."
As he said this, the emperor glanced at Kang Wenhai. Kang Wenhai was a talent that only emerged last time the princess chose a husband. Of course, he was also secretly cultivated by Mu Yexiao.
"Kang Aiqing, the task of entertaining the envoy from the State of Qian is left to you."
Kang Wenhai suddenly fell to the ground and said, "I will complete it seriously. Please rest assured, Your Majesty."
After finishing speaking, Kang Wenhai left with the envoys from Qian State. The emperor looked at the ministers and said: "Ministry of Rites, the crown prince's canonization ceremony will be prepared in half a month. You must prepare and complete it."
The Minister of Rites, the Minister of Rites, suddenly knelt on the ground: "I obey your order."
When the emperor saw that nothing happened, he glanced at the eunuch beside him. The eunuch immediately stood up knowingly: "I have a foundation to start the memorial but not a foundation to retreat."
Of course, he had no foundation, so the emperor retired from the court. Amidst the eunuchs' retreat, the emperor finally came to the harem. The queen of the harem and Concubine Qing already knew what happened before.
It's just that the harem has never been allowed to interfere in politics, so I can only pretend not to know, and just look at the emperor: "Your Majesty, can we set off? It's almost lunch time."
"When Jiu'er thinks we're not going, I'm afraid she'll eat up all this delicious food."
When the emperor heard the queen's words, he immediately thought that according to Qian Jiujiu's urinary properties, this matter was really possible. Thinking of this, he immediately said something.
"Wait a minute, I'm going to change my clothes and set off immediately."
Concubine Qing and the Queen looked at each other and smiled, then went in to serve the Emperor together, changed out of their dragon robes, and quickly put on the clothes for a tour incognito. The three of them brought some minions with them.
They headed towards Prince Xiao's Mansion. At this time, someone in Prince Xiao's Mansion naturally reported what happened in the court hall in the morning, but Qian Jiujiu didn't say anything.
Just waving the eunuch who came to report the news to leave, Xiaoman glanced at Qian Jiujiu: "Sister, I think the emperor's grandson will not come since he has something to do."
Qian Jiujiu blinked: "That's not necessarily the case. If the emperor doesn't come, Concubine Qing will definitely come. Forget it, let's prepare the meal first."
"I guess I'll be there in a while."
Xiaoman curled his lips and thought, forget it, the ancients were always extravagant anyway, even if there weren't so many people dining, there would still be so many dishes on the princess's table.
He glanced at Qian Jiujiu and said, "Sister, I found that you have been cured after becoming a princess, and you have also learned the luxury of the ancients."
Upon hearing this, Qian Jiujiu paused, and then looked at Qian Jiujiu: "Am I very luxurious?"
Xiaoman nodded: "Actually, it's okay. Compared to the real ancients, you are not as luxurious, but your meals are also very good."
Qian Jiujiu curled her lips. In fact, every time she ate, she only ate half of the dish. Unless it was a dish she particularly liked, she would finish it all.
This does not prevent other maids and slaves from eating, and Qian Jiujiu knows that letting the slaves eat the leftover dishes of the masters will still be a reward.
