Gu Huaijiang went to court this day and brought back a shocking news.
"What? Xikun's envoy is coming?"
It has only been more than half a year since the last battle between Dongling and Xikun, and Xikun actually sent envoys to make peace.
Really—shameless!
"Which war didn't Xikun provoke first? Which time didn't they want to invade my Dongling's city? Now I still have the face to make friends, bah!"
Gu Yixin was blunt and bluntly described Xi Kun as a robber.
Gu Huaijiang glanced at him, did not deny his words, but just shook his head, "Your Majesty has already agreed to this matter, and I want to welcome the envoys grandly. When the envoys from Xikun come, they will not be from the enemy country, but from the friendly country. Do you understand?"
As the top generals of Dongling, they naturally knew the difference between enemy and friendly countries.
Gu Shubai said: "Father, don't worry. As long as there is no change in the envoys of Xikun, we will definitely treat each other as guests, and the diplomatic relations between the two countries will not be damaged."
Gu Huaijiang nodded, and suddenly heard Yufu ask: "General, who is the envoy here?"
who
Could it be that even a little girl named Yufu couldn't know the people in the Xikun court
Everyone looked at her, Yu Fu was stunned for a moment, not wanting her identity to be suspected.
She puffed her face and smiled: "I mean, is it a princess or a prince?"
The probing eyes of the crowd suddenly became ambiguous, and everyone laughed tacitly.
"So Yufu is concerned about this? Why, you are worried that the envoy is a princess and will force your sixth brother to be a son-in-law?"
Gu Yi approached Yufu with an idiot face, squeezed his throat pretentiously and said, "I knew that our little Yufu loves your sixth brother the most~"
Before he could speak, Gu Xiang pulled him back.
"Not a princess, nor a prince. The two countries have always been hostile in the past. No matter how courageous Emperor Kun is, he would not dare to send his own children. The one who came was just an ordinary second-rank official, unknown."
As Gu Huaijiang said, he glanced at Gu Yi, warning him that men and women are different—
It's okay, don't rub on Yufu's body!
He was just an ordinary courtier, so Yufu was relieved.
She breathed a sigh of relief, and the people in the seat suddenly tensed up.
Their martial arts were stronger than each other, and they were so close that everyone could hear Yufu's exhalation.
She seemed very nervous about the candidate for Xikun's envoy, but after hearing that it was an ordinary minister, she relaxed again.
No, she must know the royal family of Xikun!
Could it be that Yufu is the queen of Xikun's high-ranking officials
Gu Shubai couldn't help but think of what Yao Lan said to Qi Ting. She said that only Princess Danyang could match Yufu's identity. Could it be...she is the princess of Xikun? !
This guess made Gu Shubai frown.
The audience was silent for a moment, before Yufu could react, everyone continued the topic just now in tacit understanding.
"Actually, I don't think Xikun is very shameless. This expansion of territory is also a good thing for the people of Xikun! Our Dongling land is fertile, and it is understandable for Xikun people to want it!"
It was Gu Yi who scolded Xi Kun the most, now it is Gu Yi who speaks well for Xi Kun.
Gu Jiuge also said: "Yes, the folk customs of the two countries are different, so naturally the way of doing things is also different. I, Dong Ling, inherited Confucianism and Taoism, be kind to others, and never take the initiative to invade other countries. The folk customs of Xikun are open, and even women can go to school. The battlefield is just a little more belligerent, a little more belligerent."
"Yeah yeah."
Gu Wenqing took a look at Yu Fu, and spoke kind words for Xi Kun.
Yu Fu was at a loss.
"Sixth brother, don't you hate Xikun the most? Last time the general was shot by the poisonous arrows of the Xikun people. Why do you say...that there is nothing wrong with it?"
"Why? How can I hate Xikun? Nothing!"
Gu Yi refused to admit it, and used Gu Huaijiang as a shield, "Father has said that Xikun sent envoys to Dongling, which is our friendly country. How can we hate friendly countries? This is not good, not good .”
Yu Fu couldn't see what tricks he was playing, so he nodded in a daze, "Oh..."
When everyone dispersed, Gu Shubai took advantage of people not paying attention, and went all the way to the study outside.
There are a lot of books from neighboring countries in the outer study, and he is going to check to see if Xikun has lost a princess.
"Brother!"
A figure suddenly appeared from the path behind him, it turned out to be Gu Jiuge, who just happened to be looking at him leisurely with a playful look on his face.
"It's so late, what is elder brother doing in the study outside?"
Gu Shubai was taken aback, and pretended to be ordinary: "Then it's so late, what is the second brother doing here?"
He couldn't tell Yufu's secret, he could only vaguely explain it.
Gu Jiuge stepped forward and put his shoulders on him, "Brother, don't pretend, even that kid Gu Yi has seen it, do you think I still can't see it? Yufu is probably from Xikun, from her From the perspective of knowledge and habits, it may even be from a famous family."
After the famous family
Gu Shubai smiled, and thought that it would be fine as long as it wasn't Princess Xikun.
It would be terrible if Yin Yan knew that Xikun's princess was adopted by the Marquis Gu's mansion, and she would have to be accused of collaborating with the enemy...
"Let's go, go to the outer study and check Xikun's books to see if we can find any clues."
The two walked out side by side, at the same time, Gu Huaijiang also ordered people to sneak into Xikun to investigate.
"If Yufu's identity is found out, don't let the news out, lest someone with a heart will make a fuss about her."

Listing announcement:
Today is expected to have five or six shifts, and there will be no less than four shifts without any accidents after it is put on the shelves. Of course, there are many accidents. For example, at the end of the year, I am busy with work and stir-fried chickens.
But as long as I think that the little cutie who likes "Princess" is still waiting for an update, I will be motivated!
The cutie who chased after Yiren's last book "The Concubine", and is still chasing "Princess", please let me express my gratitude to you~
The greatest joy of writing is to become good friends with readers, chat about the plot of the novel, look forward to your comments every day, and then happily give you feedback. Even if it is a gift of a flower and a monthly ticket, sometimes I forget to say thank you, because I am not very good at expressing, but please believe that Yi Ren will remember it in my heart.
Since "Princess", I have been paying attention to Yiren's cutie, please let me express my gratitude to you~
The writing styles of "Princess" and "Concubine's Body" are completely different. I believe I will meet more soft and cute little ones and swim in the world of online writing together.
