Chapter 624 There are also eunuchs in Qiancheng Kingdom
He Qingye stood in front of Ying Guizong, holding the Qianqian car given to her by Yang Wu, ready to take action.
Xia Hu said: "Do you have to use this thing?"
He Qingye timidly said: "I haven't tried anything else."
"The wound on this thing is too obvious, and it's easy to leave the tail of the hand."
Xia Hu gave He Qingye a short knife and taught her some essentials.
Holding the short knife, He Qingye's hands began to tremble.
Xia Hu reminded: "This is a senior from the Taoist sect."
He Qingye didn't have much idea about his seniors.
Xia Hu reminded again: "This is the captain of the Shenji Division."
The dagger fell to the ground, and He Qingye also sat on the ground.
In a fit of rage, He Qingye killed an official.
But she didn't have the guts to look directly at a captain of the Shenji Division, let alone stab him.
Xu Zhiqiong picked up the Qianqian cart and handed it to He Qingye: "If you really don't dare to use the knife, just use this theater tool."
Xia Hu said: "If the body was disposed of improperly and the injuries were seen by the Shenji Company, wouldn't he know that it was us who did it again?"
Xu Zhiqiong said with a smile: "If you know it, you know it. If you know it but can't catch it, he must feel uncomfortable. I just like to see him having trouble sleeping and eating."
The rest of the matter was left to the lady to handle. Xu Zhiqiong used the magic circle to return to the envoys, sneaked up on the horse and replaced the puppet.
Tong Qingqiu whispered: "While you were away, Princess Yuyao sent someone to look for you."
"What do you want from me? Is it something important?"
"If it's something important, you won't tell me. Your puppet is sitting on a war horse. She will definitely tell you face to face."
"Brother Tong, how do you support her?"
"How else can I support her? Brother, I'm not good at puppetry. I definitely can't let your puppet get on her chariot. I can only use your puppet's mouth to say that it's not convenient during the day and go at night."
"It's not convenient for me at night either."
"Then it depends on your ability. Brother can't think of a good way."
After the dinner, Pang Jiafen came to see Xu Zhiqiong. Xu Zhiqiong followed him to Liang Yuyao's residence and found out why Liang Yuyao was looking for him.
As she was getting closer to the City of God's Coming, Liang Yuyao felt very uneasy. She was afraid that there would be flaws in the negotiation process with Qiancheng Shenjun.
First of all, Xu Zhiqiong knew very well that Liang Yuyao's vision was not low, her knowledge was not shallow, and her mind was not slow. If the other party acted according to common sense, Liang Yuyao would definitely be able to deal with it calmly.
What I worry about now is that the other party is not following common sense, just like Gongsun Wen, who makes a fuss about some unexpected details, seizes a topic, and then bites it hard.
Xu Zhiqiong thought about countermeasures for a long time, listing options one after another in his head. He was thinking about how the other party would make things difficult for Liang Yuyao.
Lin Qianniang was also thinking the same way. She and Xu Zhiqiong jointly listed more than a hundred problems and taught Liang Yuyao how to deal with them one by one.
I have to admire the debating skills of famous experts. Even Xu Zhiqiong couldn't solve many problems, but Qian Niang solved them skillfully.
But with so many coping strategies, how many can Liang Yuyao remember?
Even if she remembers everything, has Qianniang really found out all the problems?
It is impossible for Liang Yuyao to remember everything, and it is impossible for Qianniang to find out all the problems. Liang Yuyao must memorize the most basic strategies, but the key to the problem is not here.
"Mother Qian, when you arrive at the court in the future, you must follow the princess closely. No matter when and where, you must never leave her."
Qianniang nodded and said: "I will follow closely, but I'm afraid I won't have the chance to speak at that time."
"I'll give you something and teach you how to use it. You should be able to learn it in the next few days."
Xu Zhiqiong handed the improved sound transmission card to Lin Qianniang. He simplified its usage as much as possible. The price paid was that the transmission distance was shortened, the content transmitted at one time was reduced, and Liang Yuyao could not respond in her mind.
But this is the only way for Qianniang to master the sound transmission card as soon as possible.
…
On the mountain road outside Lugen Village, a man was digging soil on the side of the road.
This man's name is Jiang Shengqun, and he is also a magical general.
After digging more than four feet deep, some bones were found in the soil.
These white bones were peeled off from Zou Gongjing's right arm. Chang Decai buried the bones and flesh separately and hid them quite carefully. Unexpectedly, they were dug out by the people of Shenji Division.
He collected the bones one by one, put them in a cloth bag, and took them to his residence to study them carefully.
"That's right, this is the eunuch's technique!
Are there cultivators of the eunuch path among those outsiders?
Or is it Qian Chengguo who has become a cultivator of the eunuch path?"
Jiang Shengqun held the bone and muttered to himself, with the corners of his mouth rising from time to time.
"If it is a foreign eunuch, there is nothing to delve into. But if it is a domestic eunuch, the matter here will be big."
While speaking, Jiang Shengqun knocked on the white bones: "No one wants to be a magic general for the rest of his life, so it is better to make this matter bigger."
…
After walking for three consecutive days, the envoys stationed themselves ten miles west of the City of God's Arrival.
Without the order of the Lord God, Hong Zhenji did not dare to bring the envoys into the capital.
After being stationed outside the city for a day, at dawn the next day, Qin Yan, the eunuch and eunuch in charge of the ceremony and eunuch of the Shenjun Palace, came to see Hong Zhenji and brought the decree of the Qiancheng Shenjun.
When Xu Zhiqiong heard that the Chief of Ceremonies was in charge of the eunuch, he felt a little warm.
I didn’t expect that Qiancheng Kingdom also had a Director of Ceremonies. Their functions should be similar to those of Daxuan, right?
The Si Li Supervisor can execute the red approval power on behalf of the emperor. Because this power is too great, Emperor Changle has not appointed the Si Li Supervisor to hold the seal eunuch and the pen eunuch.
And this Qin Yan is the eunuch in charge of the Qiancheng Si Ritual Supervisor, so it seems that his status should not be underestimated.
As a result, the envoy in red inquired and found that Xu Zhiqiong was overthinking.
The Chief of Ceremonies of Qiancheng Kingdom is the exclusive agency in charge of palace etiquette, and does not have any power to approving red papers.
The Qiancheng Kingdom does not even have a cabinet. Whatever it does, it all depends on the will of the God King. There is no process such as drafting votes or approving votes.
Qin Yan came here just for one thing. She hoped that Liang Yuyao could kneel down to the divine king when he came to see him.
Hong Zhenji knelt down to receive the imperial edict, stood up and said to Qin Yan: "I can only discuss this matter with the Daxuan envoy. I have no idea whether it will succeed or not."
Qin Yan was surprised and said: "Your Majesty, please forgive me for saying one more thing. We went to discuss it today. Isn't it too late?"
Hong Zhenji sighed: "I am afraid that the Lord God will misunderstand me, so I want to say this more to you. Ever since they got off the boat, I have been explaining the ancient rituals to them all the time. But Liang Yuyao was so ignorant that he didn't put my words into words at all."
In my heart."
Qin Yan frowned and said, "The princess of this country is so ignorant of the rules?"
Hong Zhenji smiled bitterly: "Liang Yuyao is quite reasonable. You haven't seen the Marquis of Fortune Xu Zhiqiong, but his speech and behavior are the same as those of a mountain bandit. You should be more careful when you meet this person!"
Qin Yan was really afraid: "I just hope our family won't meet him."
Hong Zhenji hurriedly went to Liang Yuyao and conveyed the Lord Shen's will.
The result was as expected. Liang Yuyao refused to kneel down. If Qian Chengguo forced her to do so, Liang Yuyao demanded to return immediately.
The words were in place, but the explanation failed to make sense. This is naturally not Hong Zhenji's problem.
Qin Yan didn't bother and just went back to return to her life as expected. As soon as she walked to the gate, she happened to meet Xu Zhiqiong.
In fact, it's not that coincidental. Xu Zhiqiong was just curious whether the eunuchs of Qiancheng Kingdom and the eunuchs of Daxuan looked the same.
Not to mention, the difference is really not big, Qin Yan's clothes are somewhat similar to Chen Shuncai's back then.
Not only are their clothes similar, their scents are also somewhat similar.
This is strange, why are the breaths similar?
Although Hong Zhenji and Xu Zhiqiong fell out in private, they still had to keep up with each other and introduced each other.
"The palm seal of Qin, this is the Marquis Yun of Xuan Kingdom..."
When Qin Yan heard that this was Marquis Yun, her nerves immediately tensed up. She took two steps back and bowed deeply to Xu Zhiqiong: "I came here with the emperor's decree. I hope Marquis Yun will forgive me if I fail to meet my courtesy."
It means that I am conveying the decree on behalf of the Lord God. This situation is not suitable for kneeling. The salute is already the limit.
Unexpectedly, Xu Zhiqiong returned the gift first, and then gave Qin Yan a hand.
"Qin Zhangyin, you have worked hard. Why don't you go down to your house and have a cup of tea?"
His invitations for help surprised Qin Yan, and she quickly replied: "Thank you Marquis Yun for your kindness. We are still in a hurry to return to the main hall, so I won't bother you."
After chatting for a few words and saying goodbye twice, Xu Zhiqiong always maintained a humble attitude.
This makes Hong Zhenji very puzzled. Why is Xu Zhiqiong so easy to get along with today?
In fact, Xu Zhiqiong has always been easy to get along with. If you treat him politely, he will not be disrespectful.
But if you have to show off tricks such as hiding needles in cotton wool, hiding swords in smiles, and knocking mountains to shock tigers during the conversation, then don't blame Xu Zhiqiong for not being polite.
But Hong Zhenji couldn't understand. He didn't understand that Xu Zhiqiong didn't respect him as a prince, but he respected a eunuch very much.
Not only Hong Zhenji couldn't understand it, but even the two guards around him couldn't understand it. Both of them were from the Shenji Division.
…
Returning to the main hall of the Divine Lord, Qin Yan returned her orders to the Divine Lord. Through a curtain, she could not tell what the Divine Lord's expression was.
Qin Yan knelt at the door for more than an hour with no response. It was not until she heard the snoring of the Lord God that a chamberlain told Qin Yan to leave the dormitory.
Returning to the Chief of Ceremonies and entering her bedroom, Qin Yan quickly took off her clothes and hat and wiped the sweat all over her body.
Luan Xi, Qin Yan's personal attendant, stepped forward to take over the clothes: "The hot water is boiled, I will help you take a bath."
Qin Yan nodded and suddenly felt that something was wrong. There seemed to be someone else in the room.
Luan Xi stepped forward and said, "Prince Shu also said before that the Marquis Yun of Daxuan was more ruthless than the grass bandits. I didn't expect him to be quite easy-going."
Qin Yan frowned: "Why did you mention him?"
Luan Xi pursed her lips and said, "I, I just said it casually."
Just say it casually?
You are trying to trick me!
Before he finished speaking, a man walked into the back room and said with a smile on his face: "Qin Zhangyin, you dare not say anything, but you really dare to do things."
Qin Yan looked the man up and down and said, "It turns out to be General Jiang Shengqun. When can Shen Ji Si enter and leave the palace at will?"
Jiang Shengqun took out the golden token of the Divine Lord from his sleeve: "Qin Zhangyin, I came to the palace on the orders of the Divine Lord. Could you please follow me to talk to the Divine Machinery Department?"
