After An Zheng and An Chengli separated, they also went to the Tianji Palace. At this time, the lanterns were hung high, and the Tianji Palace was ablaze with lights. The people of You State came to seek peace, which greatly satisfied the self-esteem of the people of Yan State. After so many years of war between the two countries, Youguo finally admitted its weakness, but this was the first time in history. Yanren and Youren have not been able to tell the winner on the battlefield for so many years, but today they finally defeated Youren.
"The first one is the Liufeng Knife."
"It's about to begin."
"the second one… "
"Cut stone?"
An Zheng nodded: "I hope it was a false alarm."
An Zheng could also understand this idea, but he always felt that it was not that simple.
King Yan Mu Changyan raised his wine glass and gestured to Tan Song: "Prince Yi, what do you think of my Yanren's Dance?"
An Zheng found someone from the Ministry of War and wanted to see Chen Zaiyan, but Chen Zaiyan was accompanying King Yan Mu Changyan and was not here at all.
Many people always resist the things they resist, telling themselves all the time that they can't do it. However, when things reach a certain point, these seemingly terrible things that can't be passed are often easily overcome. past.
An Chengli said: "I'm rushing to the Tianji Palace now, hoping that I can still have time to ask the king for instructions to make preparations. I hope your worries will not arise, otherwise there will be a big mess tonight."
"I believe that from today on, the You Kingdom and the Yan Kingdom will completely put aside their previous grudges and become true brothers. On behalf of King You who cannot come in person, and on behalf of everyone here, I would like to express my respect to the Queen Mother and King Yan. A glass of wine brings longevity to the Queen Mother! Longevity to King Yan!”
Fang Daozhi told An Zheng not to be impulsive. He pressed his hand down and whispered to An Zheng: "Since you have told An Chengli, An Chengli will definitely tell the king. The masters in the palace are enough to deal with emergencies. According to the situation, General Wang has also rushed back to the barracks to mobilize the cavalry. As long as proper precautions are taken, the Youguo people will not be able to do anything. "
All the officials stood up and raised their glasses: "May the Queen Mother live longer! May King Yan live longer!"
Mu Changyan laughed loudly: "Prince Yijun is really good at talking, but I, the Yan Dynasty, is in the north and has established a country with soldiers and horses. It is true that even women have a heroic spirit. It is said that the women in the south of the Daxi River are as graceful as water. The lonely king feels that, fear She’s not as charming as my Dayan girl.”
The red-robed priest sitting at another table not far away looked here from time to time. He seemed absent-minded, and the Yan officials accompanying him toasted several times, but he did so perfunctorily.
An Zheng found Wang Kaitai and Fang Daozhi again, and told them his worries. Wang Kaitai and Fang Daozhi looked at each other, and then left Fang Daozhi to sit down. Wang Kaitai left quickly.
Even Queen Mother Su Qingnuan's expression changed. The Liu Feng Dao was not written on the previous gift list. She couldn't help but look at Mu Changyan, who also looked surprised and excited.
The imperial troops outside Tianji Palace stopped An Zheng. This was the first time in so many years that they saw someone dare to ride a horse and rush directly outside the palace gate.
Fang Daozhi shook his head: "If something happens to the king, Yan State will definitely retaliate. When the time comes, You State will not be able to stop Yan State from attacking with all its strength."
An Zheng found a young eunuch, gave him a hundred taels of silver, and asked him to help find An Chengli. The little eunuch recognized An Zheng and hurriedly looked for him.
The red-robed priest said with a smile: "I'd better give it a try. Now let's ask King Yan to send someone to cut the stone. Once the stone is cut, we will make an announcement soon."
He pointed to the big box next to him: "This box contains three treasures of You Kingdom. If I name them, you must have heard of them. These three things represent the sincerity of our You Kingdom. "
All civil and military officials from the entire dynasty have arrived, including people of high status in Fanggu City. An Zheng saw the figure of Gaoyuan Hu from a distance. He accompanied an old woman and walked slowly through the crowd. All the officials stood up and saluted the old woman and said hello. No one from the Gao family has become an official, but their influence in the court is still so wide, which shows how powerful the Gao family is.
The red-robed priest first clasped his fists around, and then said loudly: "Perhaps you have never thought that one day Yanren and Youren will sit together and have a drink and talk. To be honest, I never thought that this day would come so soon. . Maybe this is God’s will. I know that you all have some resistance to Yu Ren, because there are indeed some conflicts between our two countries. "
An Zheng walked to the square outside Tianji Palace. Tables had been set up here. The maids from the palace were shuttled back and forth. Some were holding wine in their hands, while others were carrying fruits, busy.
As soon as this statement came out, the audience was in an uproar.
People like An Zheng have seen, done, and experienced far more than others. But there was something he resisted... and that was riding a horse. An Zheng never thought that riding a horse was a very comfortable thing, nor did he think that riding a horse could be faster than a practitioner running on his own.
An Zheng said: "What I'm afraid of is that Youguo will be ruined."
An Zheng quickly entered Tianji Palace, and then went directly to Tianji Palace to see King Yan Mu Changyan. However, when he arrived at Tianji Palace, he was told that Mu Changyan had gone to Jinxiu Palace to attend a dinner party with the Queen Mother. When An Zheng wanted to go to the Jinxiu Palace, he was stopped. No one could enter or leave at will without the Queen Mother's order. An Zheng asked someone to report it, but the people guarding outside Jinxiu Palace ignored him at all.
Tan Song said: "What the king said is absolutely true."
The red-robed priest drank all the wine in the cup, then smiled and said: "When we were in Jushangyuan before, the Yan people taught us a lot of lessons, letting us know that there are people outside the world. In this regard, We Youren are willing to admit defeat and sincerely admire Dayan’s talents. Although we have paid a high price for this, this lesson is also very valuable to us.”
At this time, An Chengli delivered a speech on behalf of King Yan, and then announced the start of the dinner. The palace musicians played beautiful music, and the dancers showed the beauty of their figures and dance postures to the extreme.
An Zheng once said that many people praised Dayan's cavalry for being unparalleled in the world, but they only praised the soldiers and not the horses. Soldiers were awarded awards and titles immediately for their performance, but the war horses could only eat a few more mouthfuls of good fodder.
So this war horse is also very good. Just because An Zheng doesn't like riding horses doesn't mean he doesn't like horses. On the contrary, as the head of the Great Ximing Law Department at that time, An Zheng was very knowledgeable and had some experience in the art of horse-drawing. War horses are not allowed to be bought and sold. An Zheng's war horses were all kept when he was in the border town. They were injured and abandoned on the battlefield. They were originally thought to be dead. However, after the people of Tianqi Sect took good care of them, most of them recovered.
So he preferred fear and chose to ride a horse.
"However!"
Mu Changyan smiled and said: "It's too boring to cut stones directly. Is An Zheng coming? Let him come to the lonely king!"
He pointed to his side: "These stones are leftover from Jushangyuan not long ago. Due to time constraints, they were not selected, so I was lucky enough to come to Tianji Palace to participate in this grand event. Even if it is an appetizer I gave you, we Whatever we cut out from the stones on site will be treated as a gift to the Queen Mother and King Yan. Of course, this is just the beginning. The real treasures to be presented to the Queen Mother and King Yan are here.”
This is a war horse that has experienced bloody battles on the battlefield. It can be controlled smoothly without An Zheng's effort. It only took An Zheng less than half an hour to get from Tianqizong to the outside of Tianji Palace. Of course, if Bian tried to run with all his strength, he would still be a little slower.
He shouted, and the scene fell silent.
A temporary high platform was built opposite their long table, and there were dancers dancing on the high platform. On one side of the high platform was the big box brought by the Youguo people.
Fang Daozhi said: "You State is currently suffering from internal and external troubles. Our Yan State's 300,000 troops are stationed on the front line in the eastern border, and the Bohai State's 160,000 troops have already entered the territory of You State, so the people from You State will come to seek peace. Unless the people of You State are sure to defeat our Yan State and Bohai State at the same time, how could they dare to come to Fanggu City to cause trouble at this time? If they want to assassinate the king, the best choice is to hide and plot. There is no need to use a county commander. Wang is the bargaining chip.”
King Yan, the Queen Mother and Prince Tan Song of Youguo County were sitting at the same table on the high platform, along with Prime Minister Su Mao of the Left, General Su Zong, Minister of Rites, Minister of War, and several members of the royal family.
An Zheng asked again about Chen Shaobai and asked many imperial guards and imperial guards. No one knew where this man had gone. Chen Shaobai is the chief bodyguard of Jinxiu Palace, which is equivalent to the commander of the guards of Jinxiu Palace. Logically, he must be on duty in Jinxiu Palace. But An Zheng went around and around, but no one was willing to help him get rid of him.
After another half an hour, the food and wine were served, and King Yan Mu Changyan and Queen Mother Su Qingnuan came out of the Tianji Palace surrounded by some important ministers. All the officials of Yan State stood up and saluted, including the envoys of You State.
Everyone has something they resist from the bottom of their hearts, maybe one thing or many. It depends on whether the person is mentally strong or not, and whether the person is hypocritical.
An Zheng pointed at Tan Song, who was standing next to King Yan: "I'm worried about that person. I think there's something wrong with him."
But when An Zheng left Tianqi Sect today, he chose to ride a horse. There was only one reason. He wanted to ensure that he had enough energy when he arrived at Tianji Palace without excessive consumption.
"Once the prince takes action, there will be no room for repayment between Youguo and Yanguo. As long as the people of Youguo are not stupid, they will not do such a blatant thing."
"I didn't expect Youguo to be so sincere this time, and what they brought was a national treasure."
At this moment, the red-robed priest from You Kingdom walked up to the high platform and said, "Everyone!"
"Liu Feng Dao, legend has it that it is a purple-grade artifact. It was King You's sword that once killed demons."
Wang Kaitai rushed back with beads of sweat on his forehead and sat down next to An Zheng: "I have mobilized all the cavalry from the Ministry of War in the capital and arranged them outside Tianji Palace. The practitioners from the Ministry of War have also gathered, Qianji School lieutenants are deployed all around, so they can respond immediately if something happens. I met An Chengli just now, and An Chengli said that the Ouchi guards have blocked the surrounding areas, and the masters stationed in Tianji Palace are also secretly on guard. "
An Chengli hurried out of the imperial dining room. An Zheng had just told An Chengli about the situation. Before he could explain the situation in detail, there were bursts of bells from the Tianji Palace.
He changed the subject: "Although we lost in Jushangyuan, we did not lose completely. There is one thing that has saved the last bit of dignity for us Youren, and that is our Dayou's true national treasure."
Half an hour later, everything was so peaceful and nothing happened.
An Zheng looked at the oil-paper umbrella he was carrying and really wanted to throw it away out of anger.
Unable to find King Yan, the Queen Mother, or Chen Shaobai, An Zheng turned to An Chengli. After wandering around Tianji Palace for more than half an hour, I found out that An Chengli had gone to supervise the imperial dining room.
There was a lot of chatter in the crowd, and everyone was extremely excited.
An Zheng reported his name. The Imperial Guard knew that An Zheng was attending the dinner today, so he let him in without any embarrassment. Mainly because the news that An Zheng had disgraced the Youguo people in Jushang Courtyard had spread, and the Forbidden Army soldiers felt proud. No Yan person has any good impression of the people of Youguo.
Tan Song said expressionlessly: "The Yan people are heroic. Even the dance of this woman has the aura of a warrior and an iron horse, without losing the graceful beauty. She is worthy of the words "unparalleled in the world."
"The Liufeng Sword is not just a national treasure, it is a symbol of Youguo's family. When Youguo presents the Liufeng Sword, it is a symbol of surrendering! God bless me, Dayan, I finally waited for today."
Of course, horses are not allowed to run wildly in Fang Gucheng, but no one cares about it. Fortunately, it is already dark and there are few pedestrians on the street. The things in Tianqi Sect are all good, the food, clothing, and play equipment are all top-notch. An Zheng once said, I bring a group of people to follow me to do good deeds, and of course I have to give them the best life. People who do bad things will enjoy the food and drink, so why shouldn't people who do good things enjoy it
