Mrs. Hou held the Buddhist beads in her hand tightly, calmed down and said, "No matter whether there is any contact or not, the visitor is a guest..."
Soon, the Emperor of the Great Zhou Sufu came to pay his respects to the Queen Dingyong in person and spread in the capital. Qingliu, who had originally planned to come to pay his respects again in the afternoon, rushed to the scene.
Even the King of Hancheng, who had no contact with Dingyong Marquis's Mansion, came.
The King of Hancheng just received a secret letter from Dongyi Kingdom, and heard that Bai Qingyan was here. After thinking for a moment, he asked someone to take a car to the Dingyong Marquis' Mansion. It was not that he rushed to the house like others.
He was in a relationship with the Dingyong Hou Mansion, and he had a serious matter to talk to Bai Qing.
When the Hancheng King was invited to the back hall after incense, he saw Bai Qingyan and the ninth prince wearing mask sitting in the same place and talking about something. The partition was open, and Wei Zhong and Chuntao were guarding the door, Chunzhi, but no one was there.
He dared to come forward without any eyes to inquire. The King of Hancheng was not good enough to come forward, so he could only call Wei Zhong and tell Wei Zhong that he had something important to tell His Majesty.
Wei Zhong turned around and looked at Bai Qingyan, with a general idea in his heart, and said to King Hancheng: "I guess His Majesty will leave at most half a cup of tea. If King Hancheng really has something urgent, he might as well feel wronged.
Waiting by the carriage, you will surely see Your Majesty soon.”
"Thank you, Eunuch Wei, for your advice!" King Hancheng bowed and turned around and left.
In the hall, Bai Qingyan sat in the front seat, holding a teacup in his hand, and said to Xiao Rongyan: "You come to Dingyong Marquis' Mansion today, and may cause a lot of rumors to hang around Dingyong Marquis' Mansion."
"I guessed you would come, so I couldn't help it..." Xiao Rongyan looked at Bai Qingyan with deep eyes, "It's my fault, I didn't think so much, I just thought... I could see you here...
.”
After saying that, Xiao Rongyan put down the teacup in his hand: "Just just saw that King Hancheng seemed to have something urgent to ask you. I'll wait for you outside the city..."
"Outside the city?" Bai Qingyan was quite surprised.
"In a few days, I believe the matter of gambling between the two countries will be decided, and I will set off for Yandu at that time." Xiao Rongyan stood up and saluted Bai Qing seriously, which seemed to be farewell to others."
It is rare for you to leave the palace with government affairs and let us go out for a walk."
"I have appeared in the Dingyong Marquis' Mansion. I'm afraid someone will see something when I go out of the city with you." Bai Qingyan also stood up, "Before you leave, I will definitely take time to accompany you, to ensure that you and me are safe.
It would be better for the two of them to go back separately.”
Xiao Rongyan knew that Bai Qingyan's concerns were reasonable, but he was still a little disappointed.
Bai Qingyan took a step forward and whispered to Xiao Rongyan: "Ayan, as long as the gambling affairs are over and the two countries merge with one country, we have a lot of time, so don't worry."
Xiao Rongyan wanted to go forward and shake Bai Qingyan's hand and hug her into her arms. He still restrained her: "Okay, then let's go out together..."
Bai Qingyan nodded, and when the two walked out together, they heard Xiao Rongyan say, "Ali and Xie Xun both wrote letters, saying that Tianfeng Kingdom did not mean to send envoys to Yan Kingdom, so... I guess you guessed it.
Yes, Tianfeng Kingdom came for Jade Cicada.”
"I guess there is also a disciple of the great witch from Tianfeng Kingdom. The disciple of the great witch was captured in Hanwenshan. If Tianfeng Kingdom cares very much about this person, it may try to get back the disciple of the great witch.
." Bai Qingyan carried the hem of his dress and stepped out of the hall with Xiao Rongyan. "If it were just for the sake of Yuchan, when the envoys of Tianfeng Kingdom came, they would definitely see the scenes in the streets and alleys of Dazhou.
Like jade cicadas, if they were smart, they would know... I was already prepared."
"The Tianfeng Kingdom is still a bit strange. Calculate the time. I will definitely leave when they come to the capital. Please be careful." Xiao Rongyan followed closely and stepped out of the hall.
"Thank you for your concern for this matter... I have a sense of responsibility in my heart." Bai Qingyan was still very polite to Xiao Rongyan in front of outsiders.
The two were sent out of the gate of the mansion by the Dingyong Marquis' Mansion and watched Bai Qingyan get on the carriage.
When Wei Zhong helped Bai Qingyan out, he had already talked to Bai Qingyan. King Hancheng was in the carriage. As soon as Bai Qingyan got on the carriage, he saw King Hancheng kneeling in the carriage.
Bai Qingyan sat down calmly, and after the carriage moved, he said to King Hancheng: "Get up! What made you so anxious to rush to the Dingyong Marquis' Mansion?"
But King Hancheng did not rise up, but just kowtowed to Bai Qingyan and spoke.
"Your Majesty, the secret report from Dongyi Kingdom has begun to mobilize the navy. Although the purpose is unknown, it also means that perhaps the border residents who make a living by fishing on the seaside will be in danger. The Great Zhou Dynasty built its own country.
Since the southern expedition to Xiliang, the Tianfeng Kingdom has fought again. The Daliang Navy was taken over before and has not been taken seriously!" The King of Hancheng was worried, "Your Majesty must step up the training, otherwise... Dongyi Kingdom will be
When we fight at our doorstep, we will only hurt our own people in the Great Zhou Dynasty.”
Bai Qingyan knew that King Hancheng was actually still caring about the people, so she helped King Hancheng up: "That day you came to tell me that Yan State was on an envoy to Dongyi State, I had asked Wei Zhong to the Minister of War
Lord Zhang passed the letter, don’t worry..."
There was a reason why Zhang Duanning did not pay attention to the navy before. Because there were no sea areas in Jin before, there were no capable people who trained the navy. Therefore, the navy could not be inserted into the Dazhou area, and they still used it.
They were all generals from Daliang at the time, and it was useless to send people there later. Even if they had a high official position... The following person doesn't understand the matter of practicing the navy, so he just gave it to the subordinates, and he has no temper.
Zhang Duanning intends to suppress the navy, so since Dazhou took down Daliang, he has reduced the cost of the navy and cut the navy personnel. Naturally, Zhang Duanning's idea is to first reduce it and remove the old Daliang navy general who was loyal to Daliang and did not listen to the dispatch.
Then he slowly replaced the people from the Great Zhou Dynasty, but now the Dongyi Kingdom suddenly made some moves, and I am afraid that he can't wait for Zhang Duanning to move slowly.
This matter was reported by Zhang Duanning and Grand Marshal Lu. Grand Marshal Lu approved it and did not report to Bai Qingyan. After all, after conquering a country, this method has always been used to gather the nations. It is very routine.
There is no need to report to Bai Qingyan as a means.
Seeing the current situation, if the fight really started, he was really afraid that the border people would suffer. He could not help but talk to Bai Qingyan about reducing the cost of the navy and cutting the navy's soldiers.
"Your Majesty has a point of view, so I am naturally relieved. However, the navy has been reduced too much now. Your Majesty still needs to send someone with high authority and reliable position to take charge of the overall situation and recruit the old navy's subordinates back!"
