It took 23 days for the convoy to reach the border from the freezing cold to the warm spring. The speed was much slower than expected. After all, it was not a march. The huge wedding convoy and caravan were delayed by stop and go. many things.
"Who said that the border is bitter and cold, isn't the water fertile and the grass beautiful..."
Sitting on the shaft of the car, Zhao Guanren looked around. The border gate was completely different from what he had imagined before. There was no desolate Gobi and desert, but lush mountains and mountains. Large and small natural villages were scattered among the mountains. It was a poetic and picturesque pastoral scenery.
"Not to mention the bitter cold outside the pass, the common people have all gone to the country of Ji..."
Song Chizhu rode with a cart and said: "Jiguo has a vast territory, half of which is grassland, half of which is hills and plains. We can't say that the enemy country is okay, we can only say that they are in dire straits!"
"Master Song only knows one thing, but not the other..."
A dragon cavalry general said: "There are cunning rangers in the country of Kyrgyzstan. They ride mountain pony. If they don't pay attention, they will sneak in and plunder the people. If there is a war, they have to arrest the young men, so no people want to live here. , the village is full of military households or artisan households!"
"Let everyone speed up, enter the military town and take a good rest for two days..."
Zhao Guanren enjoyed the scenery leisurely, and arrived at the important border town at about noon. Emperor Shun Yao naturally would not live in the pass. He has been living in the town since he came to rectify military affairs. He specially ordered the National People's Congress to open the city gate and come in person Welcome outside the city gate.
"Yunxuan!"
Emperor Shunyao stood happily in front of the city gate. He hadn't seen him for a few months and he didn't see his old age. On the contrary, he became tougher after tempering at the border. Jin Wuming also got tanned. Each has some manly appearance.
"Master! It's good to see you..."
Emperor Shunyao and Zhao Guanren greeted each other a few words, and led the children and grandchildren to come forward to salute Jia Bujia. Jin Wuming was even more excited, wishing to kneel down to recognize his master on the spot. A group of people chatted outside the city for a long time, Then he entered the city and came to Emperor Shunyao's palace.
"Grandfather!"
The princess and the three sisters got off the car and ran into the palace. Only Yongning and Emperor Shunyao kissed and hugged each other. Yongwei and Yongping both saluted in a proper manner. They lived outside the palace since they were young and met the emperor. Emperor Shun Yao didn't even dare to breathe. Naturally, he didn't like it.
"Hurry up and go eat, let's go over after discussing things..."
Emperor Shunyao coaxed the three sisters out with a smile. Zhao Guanren and Jia Bujia were already waiting in the study, and he only took Jin Wuming in and closed the door. He sat down and asked, "I heard that you were attacked?" Now, who did it?"
"Lao Jia's concubine, Hongluan..."
Zhao Guanren picked up the tea bowl with a smile, and Emperor Shunyao and Jin Wuming's eyeballs popped out, making Jia Bujia blushed and said embarrassingly: "Don't say it so harshly, I am about the same age as her and we are old acquaintances. Can't we comfort each other?"
"Master! Did I hear you right..."
Emperor Shun Yao asked with a confused face: "You and Hongluan comfort each other, aren't you and her sworn enemy?"
"The grievances and grievances of the last century can't be brought into the coffin..."
Jia Bujia took a sip of tea before saying: "Hongluan and I have discussed it. After dealing with the corpse poisoning matter, we will travel around the world and wander around the world. Anyway, we don't care about the affairs of the country anymore. You kids, make trouble on your own!"
"You don't want to marry Hongluan as a wife..."
Emperor Shun Yao almost jumped up, Jin Wuming also opened his mouth in astonishment, and kept picking his ears, always thinking that he was hallucinating.
"Kidney transplantation! It's still in the stage of kidney transplantation..."
Jia Bu pretended to smile and said: "Wandering around the world is the beginning of distraction. If we get along well, we will live together, and if we don't get along, we will break up. But don't worry about it, there are people in Jiguo. I don’t want Little Trumpet to live!”
"Your Majesty! Let me tell you..."
Zhao Guanren put down the tea bowl and went over the details of the matter from the beginning to the end. Only then did the two of them understand the grievances between Jia Bujia and Hongluan.
"As far as I know, the Kyrgyz kingdom is divided into three factions. One is the hardline faction led by the national teacher Kshatira. Although he does not advocate the use of corpse poison powder, he still wants to compete with me, Dashun..."
Emperor Shun Yao squinted his eyes and said: "The second faction is the peace talk faction headed by Hong Luan. The current situation is all facilitated by Hong Luan, and the third faction is the conservative faction of Ji Guo Xiaohuang. They don't want peace talks or war. To put it bluntly The only thing is to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, and watch how Kshatrira fights the red luan!"
"The gay three don't know how to live or die, in order to consolidate their position, he will do anything..."
Jia Bujia said: "In fact, the little emperor is also a hardliner, but he is afraid of Little Trumpet in his heart. As the king of a country, he dare not express his position easily. Marrying the three princesses to Little Trumpet is a kind of show of favor and temptation. Just look at the reaction of the little speaker!"
"Yunxuan!"
Emperor Shun Yao said: "You understand my intentions. We Dashun don't want to start another war. In the end, it is the common people who will be unlucky. So you can't be too hard or too soft this time. You must be just right, and the country of Ji will respect you." You three points!"
"You also know me, there is an ugly thing that must be said first..."
Zhao Guanren picked up an apple, took a bite, and said: "If the third princess is really as the rumors say, I will admit that she is as beautiful as a fairy, but if she is ugly or a big fat pig, I'm sorry! I will never serve you. I am a person who can wrong me." , and will never wrong the second child!"
"No life! Show the portrait to Yunxuan to watch..."
Emperor Shun Yao beckoned lightly, and Jin Wuming immediately took out a scroll from the cabinet and walked to Zhao Guanren to unfold it.
"Um!"
Jia Bujia poked his head over and said, "That's right! Sure enough, it's like a fish falling into a wild goose. You've made a lot of money, kid. This time Jiguo didn't cheat you!"
"You can tell that Shen Yuluoyan is coming, Hongluan will give you a red envelope..."
Zhao Guanren said angrily: "This kind of ink and wash painting is all a model. If the arrest documents are issued at this level, no one will be able to find the fugitive lying on the street. Look at the body proportions. Is this really a human, a monkey? It's perfect!"
"At least it's not a big fat pig, everyone in Kyrgyzstan knows that you don't like fat..."
Emperor Shunyao laughed and said: "Jiguo calls the princess Di Ji, and the third emperor Ji is the concubine's daughter. It is said that she is both talented and beautiful, but she has always lived in seclusion and few people have seen her. Besides, Jiguo knows that you like big or not. , so this Third Empress is a bit older than you!"
"Tch~ She's an old girl, but no matter how old she is, she can't be older than Seventeen..."
Zhao Guanren curled his lips in disdain. Who knew that Emperor Shunyao didn't speak anymore. Zhao Guanren suddenly stood up and said in shock: "No way? Seventeen is already thirty. If she's older than her, don't you just run around? Do you want me to marry an old lady?"
"No! I'm younger than Seventeen, four years younger..."
Emperor Shun Yao frowned and said: "It's just that this girl is a bit weird. She is different from Seventeen. At the age of twenty-six, she neither marries nor sees anyone. She has been living alone in a private house outside the palace, but Jiguo can't fool you with ugly ghosts." , and asked her to receive you, saying that it is to cultivate feelings first!"
"Damn! Living alone outside the palace, I'm afraid it's a broken shoe..."
Zhao Guanren looked suspicious, but Emperor Shun Yao slapped the table and said: "If you dare to insult you with broken shoes, you can go to the palace and scold the eighteen generations of Ye family ancestors in front of all civil and military officials. You seek justice, we Dashun do not want to fight,
But don't be afraid to fight! "
"Okay! Your Majesty's words are tough, dare to insult me, no one can have a good life..."
Zhao Guanren also slapped the table and burst into laughter. After the four of them had a secret discussion for a while, they got up and prepared to go to the welcome banquet, but Emperor Shunyao suddenly grabbed Zhao Guanren and asked secretly: "Yunxuan! Tell me Honestly, who is Shiqi's child?"
"My seed, the soul of the dragon, otherwise it will be a monster..."
Zhao Guanren flickered earnestly, and Emperor Shun Yao frowned and said: "Seventeen is now in full swing, and the civil and military courts of the whole dynasty are full of praise. There is a tendency to praise her as the number one queen in the ages. Just now, the master is also praising her. This matter... What do you think?"
"I don't participate in this kind of thing. If the trip to Jiguo goes well, I might go back here..."
Zhao Guanren patted his hand and walked out. Then he rested in the town for two days. Emperor Shun Yao sent 50,000 troops to escort them out of the customs.
A large number of civilians moved the supplies, and the speed of the march was much faster. Three days later, they arrived at the border of the Kyrgyz country. The Kyrgyz country sent 5,000 cavalry to meet them. The two sides handed over prisoners on the former battlefield. People and horses.
"Hey~ I still have to walk for more than half a month, I'm really exhausted..."
Luo Tan sat outside the tent and sighed, the two countries were separated by a land that didn’t care about the boundaries, and the scenery of the rolling mountains was pretty good, but it took three days to formally enter the customs, and it would take half a month to reach the imperial city of Ji Kingdom. There are no more than two trips a year.
"Master Qiu! Why are you back? Didn't you go to receive the envoys..."
Bai Yu raised his head from the horse stool, and Qiu Ning came over with an oil lamp, and said with a wry smile, "Ji Guomin is too open-minded, and brought a group of dancers in to accompany the wine. He didn't drink a few glasses of wine, but he took off his clothes." It’s almost the same, it’s really inconvenient for me to be a woman!”
"Didn't talk about business tonight..."
Luo Tan waved Bai Yu into the tent, and Qiu Ning sat beside her and said, "What are you talking about! Those who can make decisions in Jiguo are all in the imperial city. Today is just a polite contact. I didn't say anything serious, but I was arrested." Two dominatrixes for the master to play with, the ones with red hair and green eyes!"
Luo Tan was surprised and said: "You are talking about Fanbang orchids, right?"
"No! How can I never see Orchid..."
Qiu Ning said: "It is said that she is a female savage from the Yasha country. She looks like a human being, but the white skin is like a ghost, the hair is like fire, and the eyes are green. The adults are cursing bad luck behind their backs." , let people be locked in a cage and wait for the master to deal with it, it's disgusting!"
"Auspicious country is really uncivilized, and the savages are also caught as a gift..."
Luo Tan curled his lips in disdain, and said narrowly: "Little hoof! You will suffer tonight, the little princess has already started to mess around, and when the master comes back from drinking, let her get up and down, and you will definitely be excused." Huo, just wait and drink her footwashing water!"
"Cut~ Doesn't she also drink our footwashing water, and she also drinks the water for washing pots..."
Qiu Ning rolled her eyes contemptuously, turned her head and smiled and said, "Sister Baiyu, you will be tied to my sister tonight, I just got a box of gold jewelry, you can choose some later!"
"I won't go! The master must drink too much tonight, and he will go up if he has too much. Don't drag me to cry together..."
Bai Yu came out and shook her head in fear, but before Qiu Ning could say anything, she suddenly heard a muffled rumbling sound, like a wave rolling in, she quickly jumped up and wondered, "What's going on, why are there so many people?" hooves?"
"Bang bang bang..."
A series of red signals shot into the sky, and the entire camp in the valley erupted in an instant. The dragoons ran out frantically, followed by the sound of horns and cannon fire. Qiu Ning finally changed his face and said, "Oops! The Ji people attacked!" camp!"
