Not many people came, but the gifts sent to the Regent's Mansion came in like water.
These things are not a small amount, Wen Qingzhu specially asked Wang Chi to count these things.
To the northwest, gifts from the Xiongnu and the General's Mansion also arrived.
The person in charge of transporting it was Shen Yu, and the people who came with it were Ayesha and Jianda.
When Wang Chi saw the person coming, he gave instructions to his subordinates and turned to greet him.
"Mr. Shen, Lady Ayesha, Lady Jianda, please come this way."
He raised his hand and pointed in the direction of the backyard.
The Jia family's business was later taken over by Wang Chi, who was still in charge of matters in the palace. Shen Yu naturally did not dare to look down on him and became more and more polite.
"Steward Wang, please please." Shen Yu also raised his hand.
The two of them walked in front. Ayesha Rao was mentally prepared, but she was still shocked by the palace's carved beams and painted buildings, as well as the endless pavilions and pavilions.
Jianda also had a look on his face, but he was not excited because of the palace in front of him, but because he could finally see the adults!
They divided the flowers and willows and walked all the way until they came to the main courtyard.
Compared with the front yard, this place looks much simpler, but in this winter, the flowers and trees are still prosperous, and the green trees and red flowers make people's eyes full of color.
Aisha couldn't help but said: "It turns out that the Central Plains is so beautiful. I should have known better than to accept the peace talks."
Shen Yu, who was walking in front, had been paying attention to what was going on behind him. When he heard what he said, he coughed immediately.
Wang Chi's expression did not change, and he stopped at the foot of the steps: "Master Shen, you two adults, there is something going on in the front yard, and I still need to go over here."
Lu Tao in the house had seen them a long time ago, and hurriedly came out and took Wang Chi's words: "Go and do your work, leave them to me."
After leading them into the house, Liang Pingshu took Zhou Yi to the next room.
Wen Qingzhu had been recuperating for a month and was already looking great. Especially when he saw the arrival of Ayesha and Jianda, he looked even more excited.
"Sister Shuo, are you okay?"
Ayesha wanted to reply, but she didn't want to be overtaken by Jianda who stepped forward: "Very good! The queen said that she was also responsible for the distribution of food in the winter, so she couldn't come over. She specifically asked me to come to visit you on your behalf."
As he said this, he took out a letter and handed it over, looking at Wen Qingzhu with bright eyes, unable to conceal the excitement on his face.
Wen Qingzhu took the letter with one hand and patted him on the shoulder with the other: "Now that I'm here, I can stay in the capital for a few more days."
Thinking of the news from Zhang Ke, she curved her lips and said, "Just enough to watch a good show."
She did not read the letter immediately, but asked Shen Yu and Aisha to sit down and asked about the situation on the Xiongnu side: "Will the food and clothing be enough for this winter?"
A smile suddenly appeared on Ayesha's face: "It's enough. Daqi provided 50%. The queen has slowly popularized planting. With the previous grain storage, no one will starve to death this year."
"That's good." Wen Qingzhu smiled sincerely. The fact that the Huns were well fed and clothed proved that the marriage plan was correct.
After chatting for a while, Shen Yu saw her looking at the letters on the table from time to time, so she took advantage of the gap to say goodbye and leave. It was time to meet the Emperor of Qi.
After all, Aisha came here as an envoy to the Huns.
What they didn't know was that the atmosphere in Xuanzheng Hall was very solemn.
After Wei Lin explained to the emperor about Aisha's direct regency in the palace, Jiang Yuanhan said nothing, but looked at the memorial in front of him in deep thought.
This is a memorial written by Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Rites, which highly praises Zhang Ke.
He remembered that this Zhang Ke seemed to have been recommended by the Princess Regent, so he made him the Minister of Civil Affairs without hesitation.
"Sir, when the Huns envoy came to Beijing, he did not meet the emperor directly, but went directly to the regent. Those who don't know this think that the world belongs to the regent!" Someone finally couldn't help but say it.
Wei Lin raised his eyelids and saw that he was from the Ministry of Rites. For this kind of thing, either someone from the Yushitai would come to impeach him, or someone from the Ministry of Rites.
It wasn't a violation of the rules, but on the other side, Jin Yuanbao stood silently on the Yushitai, looking straight at the ground, obviously distracted.
Jiang Yuanhan raised his head and asked Jin Yuanbao below: "Master Jin, what do you think is wrong with this matter?"
Jin Yuanbao, who was named, looked up in confusion. Seeing the emperor and the other ministers looking at him, he quickly lowered his head and said, "Sorry, I have something to do and have to go to the regent's palace."
"Accurate." Jiang Yuanhan knew about his matter and was not embarrassed.
The official who spoke earlier suddenly became happy. Is he going to ask questions
Wei Lin shook his head. The emperor's foundation was indeed too shallow. Jin Yuanbao and Wan Hongyu, who were somewhat useful, were not related to the regent princess.
Naturally, Jiang Yuanhan did not miss his little move and asked, "Do you have any opinions, Mr. Wei?"
"I think that the Queen of the Huns and the Princess Regent are good friends. The envoy who came here is also an old friend of the Princess Regent. It must be a simple meeting." Wei Lin answered truthfully.
This is not to excuse Wen Qingzhu, and if the Huns envoys went quietly, he would naturally be suspicious, but they went openly. Wei Lin did not think that the regent at this time would do this.
The happy-looking official from the Ministry of Rites suddenly turned dark. Is this Wei Lin also from the Regent's Palace
Suddenly, he thought of one thing. Wei Lin had indeed borrowed the power of the Princess Regent.
When he was about to refute, a eunuch outside the palace announced: "Your Majesty, the Hun envoy Ayesha is asking to see you."
Jiang Yuanhan laughed: "Xuan!"
In the main courtyard of the palace, Jianda and Wen Qingzhu talked a lot about Lei Shuo.
His Central Plains dialect is getting better and better, and he speaks it vividly, making Wen Qingzhu laugh constantly.
Wen Qingzhu glanced outside and asked abruptly: "He Lai is here, right?"
Jianda was startled, then lowered his head, and said uneasily: "Well, sir, don't be angry, General He Lai is about to go on an expedition. He, he wants to see you again. I heard that you are having a difficult childbirth, and Jiang Yuancheng can't be killed no matter what." , General He Lai is very worried."
He quietly raised his eyes and saw that there was no displeasure on Wen Qingzhu's face, and then he said with confidence: "When Bailang Mountain was bombed earlier, Jiang Yuancheng got something and a person from it. General He Lai has already It was found out that that person is Wang Mo, who was famous before."
"Wang Mo?" Wen Qingzhu's heart trembled.
She had almost forgotten about this person. He had been imprisoned in the White Wolf before. According to Doze, there would be no big problem.
Thinking of Duoze, Wen Qingzhu looked a little solemn: "Does Duoze have any contact with you Huns?"
Jianda shook his head: "No, he has disappeared since Bailang Mountain was bombed, and General He Lai can't find him, but the king said that he must have come to the Central Plains to find you, didn't he contact you?"
"That's not true. I knew he was coming, but he didn't take the initiative to see me." Wen Qingzhu seemed to have a thorn in his heart. Xi'er's death was what Duoze said.
At that time, I didn't believe it at all.
Her expression changed, making Jianda couldn't help but ask: "Doze's whereabouts are indeed strange, but General Herai is very good at dealing with him. Should we let General Herai go-"
"No!" Wen Qingzhu refused without thinking. Seeing Jianda's lonely expression, he explained, "This is the capital, and you are Huns after all. If He Lai takes action, others will definitely notice it."
Jianda felt a little relieved: "So that's it."
After a while, Wen Qingzhu saw Ayesha and Shen Yunu coming back outside the door, and suddenly had other thoughts in his mind.
He whispered to Jianda: "Ask He Lai to come over tonight. I have something to say to him."
"Okay!" Jianda laughed immediately.
After Aisha entered the room, she sat down and asked bluntly: "Is your emperor afraid of you and Fu Lie?"
Shen Yu who was beside him couldn't help coughing, and lowered his voice and said: "It's okay to say this here. If you go outside, you must not say another word."
"What am I afraid of! It's the truth!" Aisha sat down nonchalantly.
He lifted up his skirt and said to Wen Qingzhu: "But with your strength, there is no need to worry. If you really want to replace him, you would have taken action long ago!"
Shen Yu's breathing was stagnant and she almost wanted to cover her mouth.
Wen Qingzhu smiled and was not worried: "Why do you think we have no intention of replacing him?"
"Really?" Ayesha's eyes shone instantly, "Hurry up and do it! The emperor I met just now, he was fine, but his ministers are either sinister or scheming, as annoying as Pei Yi."
These words amused Wen Qingzhu. He covered his lips and said with a smile: "Don't say bad things about Pei Yi. He is also in the capital now. If he hears it, I'm afraid he will write you down in his notebook."
Aisha directly pressed the knife on her waist: "I'm not afraid of him!"
At the same time, in a courtyard on the outskirts of Beijing, Pei Yi, who was reading a book, suddenly sneezed.
Someone happened to appear at the door. Pei Yi didn't even look at him. He quickly stood up with a smile and said, "Miaomiao, you're here."
Xue Miaomiao quickly walked into the room, put down the decoction in her hand, and said coldly: "Grandpa asked me to deliver it!"
She turned to leave, but her wrist was suddenly grabbed, and Xue Miaomiao slapped her back.
Pei Yi quickly raised his hand, stopped him lightly, and said seriously: "You can't beat me."
"Let me go! Don't think that just because you saved brother Fei Chen, I will forget what you did!" Xue Miaomiao had a cold face, but she was actually trembling in her heart.
He knew clearly that Pei Yi went back to rescue Xie Feichen, just to use him so that he could not make up his mind.
After all, he really saved brother Fei Shen's life.
Xue Miaomiao couldn't deny this.
Seeing Xue Miaomiao's struggling eyes, Pei Yi suddenly felt an impulse in his rational heart. He reached out and hugged Xue Miaomiao directly, and buried his head on Xue Miaomiao's neck.
"You are shameless!" Xue Miaomiao's face turned red instantly. She raised her hand and easily broke away from Pei Yi's shackles.
She was stunned for a moment, and soon she felt Pei Yi's breath caressing the skin on the back of her neck, and her whole body trembled instantly.
Pei Yi's voice also followed: "Miaomiao, I'm leaving. If I can come back, I will compensate you bit by bit, and compensate all of you who have been used and hurt by me."
Xue Miaomiao calmed down, pushed him away gently, took two steps back, and looked into his eyes steadily: "I like you, but I will also remember what you did, and I will never forgive you. .”
"That's good, at least you won't kill me." Pei Yi laughed, his eyes bright.
Xue Miaomiao had never seen Pei Yi like this before. There was no calculation, no use, no falsehood, but he put his sincerity in front of her.
She pushed out of the house with some fear, and said in a panic: "Don't think that just because you saved brother Fei Chen, I-"
Suddenly, Xue Miaomiao suddenly came to her senses, her face turned cold, and she turned around and left.
Pei Yi sighed regretfully and whispered: "Sure enough, she found out."
A person walked out of the door. Pei Yi took a look and quickly said, "Master Xue Valley."
Xue Guang looked away from Xue Miaomiao and looked at Pei Yi with a slight frown: "You clearly know that Xue Miaomiao hates others taking advantage of her. You saved Fei Chen and made it impossible for her to change her mind."
"What the Valley Master said is that I never thought that Miaomiao could forgive me like this." Pei Yi answered humbly.
