My Princess Has Been Reborn
Chapter 48: Above the Palace Banquet
Lu Qipei asked Qi Yang to investigate the background of Rongguo's youth, but he never expected to have an answer before the palace banquet began.
The name Xie Hongyi is very unfamiliar to Lu Qipei. After hearing it, he will not associate it with half, but it is not for Qi Yang. Her Royal Highness lived two lives, and she always knew more than Lu Qipei.
Hearing Lu Qipei's name of the boy opposite, and seeing the boy dressed up, Qi Yang almost immediately made a judgment: "He should be the son of the three princesses of Rongguo, and his father is Xie Yuan, the prime minister of Rongguo."
Lu Qipei was startled slightly when he heard the words, and immediately thought of something: "Is that the counselor who assisted Emperor Rongguo to build the country?"
When Qi Yang heard her words, a trace of annoyance slipped in his eyes. He remembered that Rongguo Xinjian nowadays, and I wonder if Xie Yuan has been on the position of prime minister? Fortunately, Lu Qipei didn’t even know the news, so he bit his head and nodded: “Well, Xie Yuan was originally from the Central Plains and lived in Rongdi for some reason. He was taken in by the tribe and was appreciated by the leader. Today."
Speaking of this, seeing that Lu Qipei listened carefully, he continued: "Xie Yuan took his servants and lived alone in Rongdi. Ten years ago, the tribe leader, in order to win him, gave him his daughter. Nowadays, the upper nobleman of Rongguo Among them, Xie is the only one."
It's not just that Xie's surname is only him. In fact, most of the people from the Central Plains in Rongguo became captive slaves. Few merchants would be considered high status. Among the nobles, Xie Yuan was the only one from the Central Plains.
Speaking of Xie Yuan's life is also a legend. From the embarrassment of living in a foreign country to Zaifu, who is now in full control, has made the world famous, it has only taken him more than ten years. And his prime minister was not climbed up by the battle of the court, but he personally assisted an emperor who came through the thorns and thorns in blood and fire, and the establishment of the glory country behind is his feat!
When Liang Guoren heard his reputation, although he often scolded him for surrendering to the enemy and treason, how could he deny his ability and boldness?
Qi Yang introduced this person in a few words, but Lu Qipei asked, "This Xie Yuan, how much does Your Highness know? For example, when did he go to the Northland, how old is it now?"
Qi Yang is really not very clear about this. Even if Xie Yuan is famous in his previous life, but he is far away in the Rong Country, how can Qi Yang have the intention to investigate him? He shook his head slightly and said, "I don't know this very well. I only heard that it is very young, and it is less than forty now."
After hearing this, Lu Qipei nodded, and did not ask any more. He lowered his eyes and didn't know what he was thinking.
After a while, the emperor finally came, and everyone in the hall stood up to greet him.
Lu Qipei was reminded by Qi Yang and stood up with her. Inadvertently, his gaze passed through the person in front of him and looked at the alien teenager on the opposite side. Xie Hongyi seemed to be aware of it, and looked back. The two looked at each other for a moment, and he turned his eyes away disdainfully.
This reaction made Lu Qipei startled slightly. Before he could think about it, the emperor had already stepped into the hall, so he could only bow down and salute.
After the emperor walked through the hall and sat down at the upper end, raised his hand and said to everyone to exempt him, everyone sat down again. As soon as the palace banquet began, the previous ramblings disappeared, and everyone in the hall sat together, the scene was also solemn.
The palace banquet is indeed not a good place to talk about love, especially the palace banquet for receiving envoys from other countries.
Because of the previous letter of credence, the emperor was obviously dissatisfied with the Rongguo envoy. He hasn't paid attention to it for several days, and today's palace banquet did not seem to be waiting for a few people. The emperor's attitude was so, even if the singing and dancing were complete, it was destined that the atmosphere of the palace banquet would not be relaxed.
The prince sitting in the front row had a straight back, a serious face, and a majestic crown. But just behind him, although the young couple did not dare to be as unscrupulous as before the banquet, they also heard a few whispers from time to time. Because it was not easy to get close this time, only a few words fell into the ears of the prince... …
Qi Yang picked up his chopsticks and ordered a plate of mutton on the counter, and said to Lu Qipei: "I'm tired of all the dishes at the palace banquet, so this roasted mutton is not bad. It tastes delicious and has no smell, Ah Pei you and have a taste."
When the prince heard the words, his eyes fell on the roasted mutton in front of him, and Qi Yang also became interested in it.
Lu Qipei behind him smiled when he heard the words, and took a sip from his chopsticks, and then said softly, "It's delicious", and moved the roasted mutton in front of him naturally to the case table next to Qi Yang.
Qi Yang was startled slightly, and immediately said: "If you keep it delicious, why do you bring it to me?"
Lu Qipei said, "The rest of the dishes are enough for me, but your Royal Highness has no choice but to give it to you naturally."
The young couple seemed to be sticky again, and the prince turned his eyes away from the roasted mutton after hearing this—listening to the conversation between the two of you and me behind him, and suddenly he was very interested in all these dishes. Lost interest, and even feel a little bit supported inexplicably?
Of course, support is an illusion, but the prince really doesn't want to listen to the young couple anymore. He raised the wine cup and took a sip, then moved his eyes to the hall and decided to focus on the silk and bamboo singing and dancing.
The musicians and dancers in the palace are the best, with the sound of silk and bamboo, singing and dancing, all of them are charming.
The emperor did not speak, and everyone in the hall dared not whisper, and most of their eyes fell on singing and dancing. Someone prefers this way, and gradually became fascinated by it, until a rough male voice broke the peace in the hall: "This soft song and dance, I don't know how beautiful it is."
Of course it was the envoy of Rongguo who spoke, but it was not a Zhengshi, but a powerful man. He held a porcelain bowl in his hand, but instead of food, he drank a bowl full of wine. He raised his head and drank it as he spoke. He picked up the jug and shook it, and said with dissatisfaction: "You Liang Guoren was also stingy, so he prepared this wine for the banquet, and it would be gone after two bowls. It was really boring."
Many ministers in the hall didn't look good, but the prince looked calm. He glanced at the father, who was sitting on the head, and then instructed the palace man: "Go and get a few altars of wine. Each envoy has two altars."
The palace man retired, and soon brought the wine again. A wine jar larger than a bucket and two jars of wine barrels were enough.
The big man who had been provoking the matter before turned his mouth, picked up a jug of Kaifeng mud and drank it on his back. The wine was all over his breast, and he was rugged and wild. At first glance, it seemed to be a street wine shop, without the proper style of a palace banquet.
The ministers of Liang State became more dissatisfied, and Lu Qipei heard many people muttering "barbarous and rude".
Rongguo’s envoy did not stop him. Seeing that the big man jumped out of his seat after drinking, he waved his hand and said to a group of dancers: "Walk, how good is this soft song and dance? Let me show it to everyone. Look."
The conditions in the north are difficult, Rong Di traditionally advocates martial arts, and these songs and dances are rarely seen at banquets.
The big guy greeted his companions in the performance as well. If you are in Rongguo, this is not rude, on the contrary, it is a sign of closeness and friendship to the host's banquet. However, the relationship between the two countries is not harmonious. The big man's early appearance is obviously not only to add luster to the banquet, but from his look, everyone sees more bright provocations.
Someone who was young and energetic, saw such a scene, almost got angry.
However, the emperor never said a word. Rong Guozheng made a lot of trouble and called the big man back. Then he got up and leaned over at the upper emperor: "Don't blame your majesty. I, Rong Guoji Lang, have become accustomed to recklessly, and some can't stand the deserted banquet. This is the only way to help.
This is a disguised accusation. The emperor raised his eyelids and glanced at him: "Whatever the guest, the messenger doesn't understand it?"
Zheng Shi smiled, not entangled in this matter, or that he simply wanted to lead the emperor to speak: "Your Majesty, forgive me, it's me and other rough people who don't understand singing and dancing. But singing and dancing trails don't matter. Just a few days have passed. "His Majesty did not see me, nor did I respond to the letter of credence. I do not know when I will see the holy face again after the banquet is over today... I am sorry for offending, my Majesty is still waiting for me to return.
This is to discuss the terms of the credential, but at the palace banquet, it is really aggressive. Lu Qipei looked at the opposite envoy, his face was sincere, but she looked on his face. The sincerity of alliance and peace talks is not enough.
Not only Lu Qipei, but everyone in the temple more or less felt the violation. But if it were not for peace talks, why did these envoys go this time? Feeling idle, did you come to Liang Guo to eat and drink? !
Many people murmured in their hearts, including the emperor, who couldn't understand this routine.
However, no matter what kind of calculation the other party is making, the loss visible to the naked eye cannot be eaten. Of course, the emperor cannot agree to those absurd alliance conditions. He looked at the envoy of Rongguo, his eyes dignified: "The letter of the country like that, the envoy thought I would agree?"
Zhengshi remained silent, still smiling, as if he was noncommittal to the emperor.
The atmosphere in the hall was suddenly suppressed, and in the end the prince broke the deadlock: "The messenger should understand that it is impossible for me to agree to such a condition. And if you wait for the initiative to come, if you want to negotiate, you might as well take out something. Come in sincerity."
Just as Wenyan was about to speak, his robe and feet were torn at. He looked down and met the young boy with a stubborn face, and his dark eyes were staring at him for an instant. Being helpless, he looked down and thought for a while, then said: "Rong Guo has just been established, and I still need to recuperate. I will come here with sincerity. It's just that everyone in the country is dissatisfied with Liang Guodu. They refused to give in."
Although this is not polite, at least it was the subject, and everyone couldn't help being a little serious.
Then I listened to the envoy to continue: "I am a messenger, and it is difficult to come with this kind of credential. It is not as good as this. If your majesty allows, the two countries may not compare the last few games. If Liang Guo is better, I will wait. There is nothing to say."
As soon as this remark came out, there was a lot of discussion in the palace, and most of them reprimanded the barbarians for being overpowered.
Taking advantage of the excitement, Qi Yang leaned into Lu Qipei's ear and asked, "Apei thinks, what are these Rongguo people making?"
Lu Qipei only felt a rush of heat spray on her ears, causing her to shrink back unconsciously, and then replied: "I don't know. What can I say, I just think these Rongguo people are a trifling matter."
After speaking, she felt a line of sight cast, and she followed the trail and met the provocative look of the alien teenager.
