Preparations for the princess's wedding are in full swing. In the past few days, the people of Xingqing Mansion have been as excited as the Chinese New Year. The princess's marriage has nothing to do with them, but the emperor will promulgate some national policies that benefit the people, such as tax cuts.
Amnesty and the like. In addition, although this wedding is relatively hasty and will not alarm neighboring countries and friends, envoys from other countries will still inevitably arrive. Foreigners' business is always easier than that of their own country, and the common people are holding back their energy.
I plan to make a good fortune.
Facts have proved that the people's guesses were correct. There were still three days before the wedding day, and several envoys had already arrived one after another. They paid a visit to Honglu Temple, offered congratulatory gifts, said a few nice words, and then went to find their own places.
Rested.
The list of envoys has been placed on Taishi Xiao's desk at this time. There are Jin, Tubo, and Uighur countries. In addition, the Black Khanate to the west of the Uighurs has also sent people. It is said that Chongzong is very happy. Today
When he went to court, he specially praised the chief minister of Honglu Temple and ordered him to entertain the envoys of several countries well.
Not many people came from each envoy group this time. It was said that the Jin envoy happened to be nearby, so he stopped by. However, the Tubo Uighurs and others came only after receiving the notice from Daxia, so there were not many people.
In addition to the principal and deputy envoys, they each brought about a hundred people. In the past, in the exchanges between countries, the envoy team usually consisted of hundreds or even thousands of people. However, this time it was a princess getting married, not a prince enthroning.
It is reasonable to have fewer people, and it also makes Daxia's foreign ministers less nervous.
Xu Zizhen was bored and ran to Taishi Xiao's study again. He was studying the details of the day of the incident. Suddenly someone came from outside the door and reported: "Sir, we have a distinguished guest." After saying this, he handed over a greeting card.
Come up.
Master Xiao opened it and stood up abruptly: "Please come quickly!"
Xu Zizhen could see it clearly and wondered in his heart, what kind of god was this that could make this old fox so nervous?
"Haha, no need to invite." A burst of bold laughter came from outside the door, and then a figure stepped in.
The man who arrived was young, with fair skin, wearing a brocade robe and a fox fur hat on his head. He had handsome features and looked like a gentle and polite scholar, but his eyes were clear and translucent, and there was a sense of heroism in his gestures.
Grand Master Xiao had already stepped forward to greet him. What surprised Xu Zizhen was that the old fox, who had always been mature, solemn and arrogant, had completely changed his face today. He stepped forward with surprise and saluted: "I don't know the king... Master Wang is here, and I am not far away to welcome you."
Please forgive me."
Master Wang chuckled and supported the old fox: "Master, you don't have to be polite. I just happened to pass by your place and came to join in the fun."
Listening to the conversation between the two, Xu Zizhen's heart moved. Whose young master could humiliate this old fox like this? Master Wang, Master Wang... Is this kid a prince? But the Xixia royal family was about to be overthrown by the old fox Xiao. He
He was still so polite to others, so it was obvious that this boy was not the prince of Xixia, he thought as he glanced at the young man with his eyes.
At this time, Master Wang also noticed Xu Zizhen, and Master Xiao had already stood up to greet him. However, he still sat there motionless, his eyes scanning him from time to time. Although he was not arrogant, he obviously did not take himself seriously.
Keep it in mind.
However, he was not dissatisfied. There was only a hint of surprise in his eyes, and he smiled and said to Master Xiao, "I wonder who this is?"
Before Master Xiao could speak, Xu Zizhen stood up slowly and held his hands casually: "I am Xu Zizhen, a distant relative of Master Xiao."
"Oh?" Master Wang obviously didn't believe it. With Master Xiao's status, a distant relative could have a secret chat with him in the study, and he didn't show any emotion when he saw him. But since he didn't want to say it clearly, he didn't ask any more questions.
He just smiled and nodded, "Nice to meet you."
Master Xiao breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't want others to know Xu Zizhen's existence, especially his status as a naturally psychic person. If the man in front of him found someone he wanted, would he give it to him or not? But it was okay.
Xu Zizhen is a smart man and did not embarrass himself.
But before he could relax for long, Xu Zizhen said another sentence that made him stunned: "I wonder what the relationship between Master Wang and General Wanyan Wushu is?"
At this time, even Young Master Wang was stunned. Wanyan Wushu was the fourth son of Wanyan Aguda, the founder of the Jin Kingdom. He was good at fighting and was a famous general in the Jin Kingdom. This so-called distant relative of Master Xiao did not know him, but he
He just looked at himself up and down and then said such a sentence, which made him startled. Who is he?
No matter how deep the palace is, Master Wang can't hide the surprise in his eyes. Xu Zizhen saw everything clearly, which proved his guess.
Xu Zizhen just stood there casually, holding his chest with one hand and supporting his chin with the other hand, and said in a deep voice: "Since Young Master Wang doesn't want to say, I will venture to take a guess. Well, Young Master Wang... I think it is."
The young prince is the one, right?"
Master Xiao and Master Wang were completely stunned. They looked at Xu Zizhen blankly. Master Wang suddenly laughed heartily: "Master Xu has good eyesight, how did you find out my identity?"
Xu Zizhen smiled: "Guess."
Grand Master Xiao is in power, and no one in the entire Xixia country can be favored by him, let alone someone so groveling. The only thing that can make him act like this is the power of other countries that the Xiao family relies on. Looking at today's
In the world, neither the Song Dynasty nor the Liao Dynasty have such qualifications. The only possibility is
The Kingdom of Jin, and this young master Wang has a natural aristocratic temperament all over his body. He is obviously used to being bossy, and there are only a few famous people in the Kingdom of Jin that Xu Zizhen can name, so he first picks the Jin Kingdom that he is most familiar with.
Wu Shu came to test him, and he found out the truth.
Young Master Wang was indeed a prince, but now that his identity was clear, Xu Zizhen still looked calm, which had to surprise him. Master Xiao was frightened, but he had to step forward at this time, and said to Xu Zizhen with a forced smile:
"This is the young prince of the Kingdom of Jin, His Highness Wanyanang, King Yun."
After Master Xiao finished speaking, he winked at Xu Zizhen without leaving any trace, hoping that he would not expose his identity to avoid getting into trouble. Xu Zizhen understood that, and he did not want to reveal his identity in front of the King of Jin.
It was revealed, but fortunately Wanyan Ang had no intention of continuing to ask further questions. He just looked at him curiously, not knowing what he was thinking.
Young Prince Wanyan Ang? This means that he is the youngest brother of Jin Taizong and the uncle of Wanyan Wushu? Xu Zizhen's heart was filled with panic, but his face remained calm, pretending to salute: "I have seen Yun Wushu"
Your Highness."
Wanyan Ang supported him and said with a smile: "Young Master Xu, you don't have to be polite."
Xu Zizhen took advantage of the situation and stood up straight: "Your Highness and the Grand Master have important matters to discuss, so I won't interrupt you." After saying that, he was about to go out.
"Sir, wait a minute!" Master Xiao rolled his eyes and suddenly stopped Xu Zizhen. He turned to Wan Yanang and said respectfully, "Your Highness, Mr. Xu is not an outsider. How about asking him to stay with us to discuss important matters?"
Wanyan Ang said happily: "Okay." He turned around and sat down, and then asked, "A big event is coming soon. I wonder how the Grand Master is preparing for it?"
A hint of excitement suddenly appeared on Taishi Xiao's old face: "It's time to go back to Your Highness."
"Very good." Wanyan Ang nodded, "I have brought three thousand iron pagodas this time, and I will help you when the time comes."
Xu Zizhen secretly took a breath of air from the side: Damn, Iron Buddha? This thing is not easy to handle!
