After having lunch at Luo's house, Xie Yan and Luo Junyao stood up to leave after seeing that it was getting late.
Luo Yun reluctantly sent his daughter and son-in-law out of the gate, repeatedly telling her daughter to come back to see her father more often.
Luo Junyao naturally promised to come back often, so Luo Yun let him go with satisfaction.
The Luo family and the Prince Regent's Mansion are not far apart, and they can be reached within a short stroll. Luo Junyao originally planned to go home and have a look when he had nothing to do. After all, there were really few people in the Prince Regent's Mansion, and the Luo family was more lively.
After leaving Luo Mansion, Xie Yan looked down at Luo Junyao and said softly: "Yaoyao, where else do you want to go?"
Luo Jun said: "Aren't you going back to the palace?"
Xie Yan said: "I have nothing to do today, I can go shopping with you." Even if Xie Yan's wedding leave has been used up after today, the regent still has a lot of daily affairs, and he will definitely not be idle in the future.
Luo Junyao thought about it carefully and found that there seemed to be no place in particular he wanted to go.
In fact, there is really nothing particularly interesting in this era. The girl's house is nothing more than visiting gardens, admiring flowers, gatherings, drinking tea and listening to books, and shopping for things. Having just experienced the rush to prepare for the wedding, Luo Junyao is temporarily not interested in shopping.
There is a psychological shadow.
Seeing her looking like she was thinking hard, Xie Yan couldn't help but laugh.
"Since there is no place you want to go, how about going to Nanshi for a walk?"
"Okay!" Luo Junyao agreed without thinking. His Royal Highness the Regent was simply the savior of the difficult choice.
The carriage arrived all the way to Nanshi and stopped at the street corner.
During the day, Nanshi was as lively as ever. Although there was nothing interesting, Luo Junyao still had a great time when he got to this place.
Watch the sideshows, buy snacks, and visit the shops on the street.
Just like everyone knows that the streets in modern scenic spots are all the same and there is nothing to do, but if you really go there, you still have to go shopping to have fun.
After all, you have come here.
Finally, Xie Yan asked his attendants to send the pair of bits and pieces that Luo Junyao bought back to the palace first, and then he took Luo Junyao to Pinyiju.
It was already evening when the two of them sat down in Pinyiju, and Pinyiju was almost full of people.
The two of them were personally led by the shopkeeper to a corner near the window in the lobby on the second floor. The shopkeeper was a little cautious and said, "Your Majesty, Princess, I'm really sorry. The shop has no private rooms today..."
Pinyiju's business has always been very good, and although it is customary to set aside two rooms for emergencies, today even those rooms are gone.
Who would have thought that His Royal Highness the Regent and the Princess would also come today?
Luo Junyao smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, there are only two of us, it would be more lively sitting outside."
Xie Yan did not speak, but nodded to express his agreement with Luo Junyao's words.
The shopkeeper breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Thank you so much, Your Majesty and Princess. I would like to congratulate you on your wedding, but now I'll have this meal catered by the store, which can be regarded as a token of my gratitude."
Luo Jun smiled and said, "Shopkeeper, are you so generous in doing business?"
The shopkeeper smiled calmly and said: "The visit of the prince and princess to the shop will only make the shop more prosperous. I'm afraid the business will be better in the future. It's thanks to the two of you. If you two are willing to come more often in the future, the shop will be a great success."
It’s an honor to invite you all this time.”
"I'm sorry about that. I'd like to thank the shopkeeper now." Luo Junyao said with a smile.
The two quickly ordered their dishes, and the shopkeeper respectfully withdrew.
Although many people saw them when they came up, no one came forward to disturb them. Luo Junyao could also feel the looks of many people around her who thought they were secretly inquiring, but as long as the other party did not come forward to disturb her, she was not afraid of anyone watching.
.
What's more, you can't see anything through the screen.
After shopping all afternoon, she was indeed a little hungry.
The food was served very quickly. Luo Junyao sighed while eating: "In places like Shangyong, Pinyiju's food is the most delicious."
Xie Yan raised his eyebrows and said, "If you like Yaoyao, you can invite Pinyiju's cook back."
Luo Junyao said: "Forget it, it will be more delicious if you eat it once in a while. Besides, with the chef's excellent cooking skills, more people need to taste it."
Xie Yan smiled and said nothing, raised his hand and gave her some of her favorite dishes.
While the two were eating, they listened to the chatter of the diners around them.
Naturally, those who can dine in a place like Pinyiju are not ordinary people. Although they were all a little surprised by the regent's arrival, seeing that the two of them were really just sitting in a corner of the lobby concentrating on their meal, they gradually put it aside.
Already.
You can always hear some interesting stories in crowded places. I wonder if it’s because they are here. These people all want to avoid the important event of the regent’s wedding. The most interesting thing to say is the visit of the envoys of the Qi tribe.
matter.
Outsiders only knew that the queen of the Qi tribe was among the envoys sent by the Qi tribe this time, but they did not know that the queen of the Qi tribe was Bai Jingrong.
There are many more young people, and they probably don’t even know who Bai Jingrong is.
Even if they had heard of her reputation, they probably only knew about King Qi's Mrs. Rong.
"The Qi tribe just sent a hostage, why did they send an envoy again?" someone asked in confusion.
Another person, who was obviously more informed, said in a low voice: "I heard that the Qi people also want to reconcile with us and sign an agreement not to start a war for twenty years or something."
The two sides were forced to cease fighting before, and the prince was given as a hostage as a condition for the truce. However, this truce was actually not binding. As long as the Qi people did not care about the proton's life, or Da Sheng wanted to send troops, they could start the war again at any time.
Maybe we can kill the proton sacrifice flag first.
Although signing a formal agreement may not be binding, the party that breaks the agreement first will be despised and guarded against by the four countries.
Agreements are not very useful, but if a country frequently breaks them, it will be untrustworthy to other countries.
At the same time, this agreement is also a statement of attitude to all parties.
"Will the higher-ups agree to this?" someone asked.
"Probably... no?" The person who answered hesitated, "After all, His Royal Highness the Regent and General Luo have been fighting with the Qi people for so many years, so they will definitely not agree."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "But, isn't it because we stopped fighting with the Qi people because we don't want to fight?"
"It would be a good thing if we could avoid fighting."
“Just because you don’t want to fight now doesn’t mean you don’t want to fight in the future.”
"That's right, then..."
Luo Junyao propped up his chin and listened very intently. There was a screen behind them. People outside could not see clearly inside. Luo Junyao could see the people outside through the screen.
Xie Yan said helplessly: "Don't you know everything? Are you still listening so enthusiastically?"
Luo Junyao said: "I want to hear what others think of these things. It seems that no one wants to fight."
Xie Yan said: "Except for ambitious lunatics, no one wants to fight if possible."
In the history books, war may be about an iron horse swallowing thousands of miles like a tiger, or an iron-blooded man riding a horse with a sword and a strong military spirit. But in reality, it is like a river of blood and a mountain of corpses.
Countless young men were buried in the battlefield, countless civilians died of exhaustion in the middle of the road. How many families had no one to support their wives and parents, and the land was barren and uncultivated.
Not to mention, because of the continuous wars and the amount of taxes, the people were suffocating.
Xie Yan was not born to understand this. He was once just a general who dedicated himself to fighting for his country. He only needed to win one victory after another on the battlefield and keep the enemy at bay.
But when he took on more responsibilities, he realized how many people had paid the price for the glory and victory he had gained through bloody battles.
One general's success will destroy ten thousand bones.
The achievements of a thousand years are not just forged by the blood and bones of soldiers and enemies.
Luo Jun shook his head and said, "You are right."
"I have met the regent and the princess." A tall man turned around from behind the screen and said respectfully.
This was the first person who dared to approach this place, so it naturally attracted the attention of many people.
Luo Junyao looked up at the man and found that he was a young man in his early twenties.
The young man was tall and straight, with fair complexion and deep facial features. He could not be said to be too good-looking, but he was not ugly either. It was just that there was a hint of foreign blood between his brows and eyes. Luo Junyao had seen many such people, such as Ji Rong and Xie Wenyun.
.
This person is obviously a mixed-race child born from the Qi people and people from the Central Plains.
Xie Yan glanced at him without saying anything. The young man was obviously a little afraid of Xie Yan. He immediately lowered his head and said, "Madam, I would like to meet the prince and the princess."
Xie Yan said: "Tomorrow, at the end of Chen Shi."
The young man obviously knew a lot about the Dasheng court.
Tomorrow is the great court meeting of the Dasheng court, which usually ends from the middle of Yin Shi to the middle of Si Shi. Most of the visits of foreign envoys are arranged at Chen Shi, which is neither early nor late.
The young man frowned slightly and said, "Madam would like to meet the prince in private." If he just wanted to meet in the court, why would Madam let him make this trip?
Xie Yan said: "Since Mrs. Rong has come to Dasheng as an envoy of the Qi tribe, she should understand some rules. Before the envoy comes to see your majesty, I will not see anyone."
The young man's eyebrows moved slightly, and he seemed to be a little unhappy.
But Xie Yan glanced over, and he was shocked and immediately calmed down.
He stood there in silence for a moment, finally said nothing, bowed and turned around to leave.
Seeing him coming and leaving, Luo Junyao held his chin and said, "Why does Madam Rong have to see you before meeting His Majesty?"
Moreover, it has been two or three days since the credentials were handed in. Although there was no court meeting in these two days, Bai Jingrong did not go to the palace to see His Majesty Dasheng because of this. It was still a bit of a neglect.
Xie Yan said: "Maybe you want people to know...that the Qi people respect this king, right?"
An idea flashed in Luo Junyao's mind, "Praise for killing? Uh... They are not qualified to praise and kill the regent of Dasheng. Is this sowing discord?" It was probably a routine like sending a stunning beauty to Xie Yan before, and it may not really be effective, but
It's hard to avoid feeling a little uncomfortable thinking about it.
Luo Junyao smiled and said: "It seems that she really doesn't want to make you happy." Even if she wants to ask for something, she still wants to deal with the person first before talking.
Xie Yan disagreed and said: "It's hard to say who is more unhappy now. Are you ready to eat?"
Luo Jun shook his head and said with a smile: "After eating, let's go home."
Xie Yan's eyes were gentle, and there was a slight smile on his lips.
"Okay, let's go home." He stood up and reached out to Luo Junyao.
Luo Junyao stood up and held his hands, one big and one small.
The two of them walked out of the small world behind the screen hand in hand and walked downstairs under the gaze of everyone.
