"Did anyone come from Daxia?"
De Gugzhele asked indifferently.
"Yes, King Yongding sent someone over, saying that the emperor of Daxia arranged a banquet for tomorrow, so that we can rest for a day and enter the palace for a banquet tomorrow."
Speaking of the emperor of the Great Xia, De Gugezhele has disdain in his eyes. He guards such a big country and owns such a rich land. There are frequent invasions of Dawa in the north, and the Japanese country in the east. It is really sad that he is trapped in the city.
"Okay, then tell them to take a good rest and don't go out and make trouble for me."
De Gugezhele specifically asked that the loyalty of the subordinates he brought, but the Dava Wolf Tigers also have the temperament, they came here to negotiate, by the way, let Daxia give some supplies, gold and silver treasures. Before he got it, he didn't want to leave a bad impression on Daxia.
Daxian knew what their eldest son was thinking, so he directly replied: "Don't worry, eldest son, I have already ordered before coming, so they will stay in this post house and go nowhere."
Hearing the words, De Gugzhele nodded, Daxian saw that he closed his eyes and seemed to be very tired, so he didn't bother much, and bowed back.
In the afternoon, the clear sky began to gloom, and the clouds became thicker and thicker, as if it was about to give birth to a heavy rain.
At the moment in the county lord’s mansion, in the pavilion, the Chunqiao who had originally been in the shade saw the changes in the wind and clouds, and could not help but reminded: "Miss, the sky has changed, let's go back."
Has changed
Yes, the sky has changed.
"The dark clouds cover the sun." Yu Lao said softly.
Hearing this, Chun Qiao looked up, saw clouds gathering one by one, more and more, and said in agreement: "Isn't it? I want to have a heavy rain."
"Yes, it will rain when the sky changes, and I don't know when the sun will come out."
Yu Lao's self-consciousness made Chunqiao feel that her own lady was a little strange, but she couldn't tell why it was strange.
"What are you afraid of raining? When the rain is over, the sun will naturally come out." Chun Qiao said disapprovingly.
Sure enough, after Chun Qiao finished speaking, Yu Lao Du had a deep look in his eyes.
"Yes, the sun is always coming out." Taking advantage of the rain, Yu Lao returned to the room with Chun Qiao.
At the same time, Zhou Jinran was waiting in the imperial palace.
Sitting on the dragon chair, the emperor looked at Zhou Jinran, who was standing on the lower head with low eyebrows, his eyes were proud.
After a while, Gong Gong Xia came in and whispered something in the ears of the emperor. After reporting the report, the emperor nodded and let Gong Gong Xia go down.
Then, after only two of them were left in the house, the emperor said, "Xiao Xiazi reported just now that the envoy of Dawa has arrived and he has been safely escorted into the post by solemn escort along the way."
Zhou Jinran was summoned into the palace by the emperor early in the morning and followed the emperor every step of the way. He could not see anyone in private, so the news was blocked, and any information about the envoy of Dawa entering the capital was not known.
Zhou Jinran only knew about it after hearing the emperor's dictation.
"Since the envoy has arrived safely, I must go to the palace to meet him tomorrow."
"Yes, I have arranged a banquet for the envoys, and tomorrow, all the ministers will attend."
"Congratulations to the emperor, so that the two countries can fix it." Zhou Jinran said with his hands.
Emperor Chengwu wanted to see Zhou Jinran's expression clearly when he heard the words, but the weather was gloomy and the room was not holding the lamp. Zhou Jinran's expression was secretive, and Emperor Chengwu couldn't see his true thoughts at all.
"Do you sincerely hope for peace talks between the two countries?" Emperor Chengwu said.
"Why is the emperor so doubtful?" Finally Zhou Jinran looked up, and Emperor Chengwu saw his star-like eyes, full of doubts.
"It is said that the envoy of Dawa encountered several and three obstacles along the way, and it seems that it is not peaceful." Emperor Chengwu tried repeatedly, and it turned out that he felt that this was done by Zhou Jinran. He had conflicts and festivals with Dawa in Tanglin, so , He wanted to attack the envoy of Dawa on the road, but the envoy of Dawa could arrive safely, but he did not succeed.
Zhou Jinran sneered when he heard the words. Emperor Chengwu looked down on him too much. His attitude towards Dawa was indeed unfriendly, but it was not a personal grudge, but because he was Daxia’s guard and soldier, Dawa. When the crime comes, his enemy is Dawa, and the Japanese country is attacking, and his gun is naturally aimed at the Japanese country.
As for the ambush on the road, Zhou Jinran thought he had never done it, nor had he given such an order.
If he really had this intention, it would be impossible for the envoy of Dawa to arrive unscathed.
"The emperor, since the envoys of Dawa came to Beijing for peace talks, if the peace talks are successful, there will be no fighting between Dawa and Daxia, and the people can live and work in peace and contentment. This is a great good thing. Of course, the ministers are pleased. The emperor can send any ministers to investigate the attack on the envoys of Dawa, and the ministers will definitely pay the divine grace to investigate to the end."
After hearing Zhou Jinran's words, the doubt in the emperor's heart was not solved, but deepened. Although he doubted Zhou Jinran, he also understood his temperament, that is, disdain to lie.
Since he said that this matter has nothing to do with him, then it has nothing to do with him.
What he is thinking about is the people, and naturally he will not destroy the current friendly relationship between the two countries. Since he will not do anything unfavorable, then he does not have to hold him by his side.
"Jin Ran, I don't doubt you, I just want to ask, what do you think is going on?" Emperor Chengwu's mind was exposed, and he naturally wanted to find a step for himself and save some face. .
"The emperor, the minister felt that if someone else wanted to take advantage of this to disrupt the relationship between the two countries, it would be to blame the minister, causing the emperor to misunderstand the minister."
Whoever is willing to carry this black pot, he doesn't carry it anyway.
Seeing that Zhou Jinran was so calm, Emperor Chengwu knew that he had misunderstood him deeply before, and he couldn’t be blamed on himself for this matter, but the Meng family should be blamed. Although the Meng family rebelled over the past two decades, this incident At this moment, people still dare not forget.
And Zhou Jinran, did he already know his identity? If he knew, would he, like the Meng family, want to replace him
Emperor Chengwu didn't want to think too much, didn't dare to think too much.
"This matter is indeed full of doubts. I should thoroughly investigate it. It's just that you have recently cultivated at home, and you will get married soon. This is a major event in life. I won't cause you trouble."
A few words are high-sounding.
Zhou Jinran still humbly obeyed orders.
"Thank you, the emperor for your compassion."
"You have worked hard too, stay with me for a day, and let's go back and rest. There will be envoys to receive tomorrow."
"Yes, Weichen retires."
After leaving the emperor's palace, Zhou Jinran looked up at the clouded sky at a 45-degree angle. (End of this chapter)
