The man was hit on the head several times by Wan Yanyan, then he covered his head and said, "They didn't treat the princess badly."
Wan Yanyan hit him on the head again and said, "You can't treat him badly here, you should abuse him."
The man protected his head and said, "Princess, your clothes look good."
The middle-aged woman looked at her and said, "Let's go."
"Let's go." Wan Yanyan nodded, walked two steps and then stopped, her eyes a little nostalgic. This month, although she was a hostage, she had good food to eat and beautiful clothes to wear. As long as she met
She could take a bath comfortably in the city, which even made her feel that there was nothing wrong with being a Han woman.
After I left, those delicious foods were no longer available.
She tightened the big bag on her back, which contained beautiful clothes and sparkling jewelry that she had accumulated over the past month. Although they were all worn and used by others, she still liked them very much.
He suddenly turned his head, looked at Tangning, and said, "Next time we meet, I won't lose to you again. Then, watch your butt!"
After saying that, she turned around and left with the middle-aged woman and her group, never looking back again.
Wan Yanyan's threats went in and out of Tang Ning's ears. The gap between her and him was just like the gap between him and Tang Yaoyao. It would be difficult to catch up in this life. See you next time, whose butt needs to be careful?
must.
He looked at the two guards beside him and said, "Why are you still standing there? Why don't you help Mr. He back quickly?"
The return of He Rui, the deputy wedding envoy, made the atmosphere of the whole team high.
For the safety of the soldiers, they are willing to put themselves in danger, be taken away as hostages by the enemy, and suffer all kinds of abuse and humiliation. How righteous is this!
An official looked at He Rui and said angrily: "Those prairie barbarians are so crazy, look at how Master He was tortured!"
"Master He, you have lost weight." Tangning looked at He Rui, shook her head, and said, "If I had known that they would do this to you, I would have taught their hostages a lesson and avenged you."
He Rui no longer cared about being a hostage, one in the sky or the other in the earth. He stretched out his sleeves to wipe his nose, and turned around and said: "My lords, can you go out first? I have something important to report to Mr. Tang."
After hearing this, everyone thought that He Rui had obtained some confidential information about the other party, so they all retreated.
Tang Ning poured a cup of tea for He Rui and said, "Master He, if you have anything to do, please speak slowly and don't be in a hurry."
He Rui picked up the tea cup and put it down. He suddenly stood up straight, bowed at 90 degrees, and said: "Master Tang, it was my fault that I was the official. A month ago, I actually wanted to do harm to Master Tang all the way. I went back to tell you
King Duan takes credit..."
He slapped himself in the face and said: "It's Xiaguan who has lost his mind. It's Xiaguan who deserves to die. Lord Tang, please forgive me!"
Tangning watched him slap her face one after another, and said in surprise: "Master He, what are you doing..."
He Rui raised his head and said firmly: "Xiaguan thought a lot along the way, and deeply regretted his previous thoughts. From now on, Xiaguan will only follow Mr. Tang's lead. I also ask Mr. Tang to forgive me."
The mistakes I made before..."
Tang Ning thought that after He Rui suffered so much, he would come back and accuse him and make things worse, but she never expected that he would actually pull such a trick, and he was not prepared at all.
He looked at He Rui. Could it be that he wanted to pretend to surrender to him, but was actually working as an undercover agent with him to steal important information?
"Sir, the mission that King Duan gave to Xiaguan during this trip is to prevent King Kang from marrying Princess Changning at all costs. If there is a chance, I will also get rid of you on the way... Fortunately, Xiaguan suddenly woke up and was willing to return to Tang Dynasty.
Your Majesty." He Rui looked at him and said swornly: "I swear to God, if I tell a lie, I will be struck by five thunderbolts and I will die miserably!"
This oath is indeed very serious. Although you can't trust him immediately, you can still stay and investigate. Tangning looked at him and smiled: "Sir, what you said is serious. As envoys, we should help each other and love each other...
…”
He Rui suddenly knelt down and said, "Xiaguan has decided to submit to Lord Tang. If Lord Tang points to the east, Xiaguan will never go west!"
He looked up at Tang Ning, his eyes burning and sincere.
Along the way, he was brutally abused and suffered a lot, and he really thought about it a lot.
However, what he wanted to understand was that being an enemy of Tangning would not end well. He could save his life this time. What about the return journey after arriving in the capital of Chu?
Not even halfway through the trip, he had already fallen into such a miserable situation. If Tangning remembered it, how could he survive to return to the capital?
Whether King Duan's mission is more important or his own life is more important, this is a question that does not need to be considered at all.
Even the Tang family and King Duan couldn't fight. How did He Rui get so obsessed with ghosts that he had the illusion that he could fight him!
Tangning looked at He Rui and asked slowly, "Is Mr. He serious?"
He Rui cupped his hands and said, "Every sentence comes from the heart."
Tang Ning helped him up and said with a smile, "Master He, you've had a hard journey, you'd better go back and rest first."
Seeing Tang Ning helping him up, He Rui finally breathed a sigh of relief and said hurriedly: "If you are driven by anything in the future, He Rui will not hesitate to die."
After letting go of the huge stone in his heart, he felt relaxed and his mouth felt dry for a while. He picked up the tea cup just now and was about to drink it.
"Lord He, wait a minute."
Tang Ning stopped him, took another tea cup, filled it with tea, handed it to him, and said, "The cup just now has gone cold. Master He, you'd better drink this cup."
He Rui looked down at the tea cup in his hand, his palms trembling slightly.
"Master Tang is still thoughtful." He put it down and took the tea that Tang Ning handed over again, with tears of emotion in his eyes.
As Tang Ning walked out of the tent, Lu Teng came over and asked, "Is Mr. He okay?"
"Master He, it's been a hard journey." Tangning sighed and said, "Let him have a good rest."
Lu Teng looked at him and said: "Master He was captured because of our negligence. When we return to the capital, Master Tang can blame all the negligence on me."
If it hadn't been for Tang Ning's careful deployment last time, the princess might have been kidnapped by them, and his subordinates would have suffered heavy losses. If the worst happened, as the deputy envoy responsible for security, he would have suffered the most serious consequences.
punishment.
Even so, the fact that the deputy envoy was kidnapped is still a crime that cannot be shied away from. If He Rui returns to the capital to report the crime, Tang Ning, as the chief officer, cannot escape the blame.
Tangning looked at him, patted his shoulder, and said, "Don't worry, Mr. He understands justice and can understand us."
He looked ahead and said: "Let everyone cheer up, we will arrive at the capital of Chu State tomorrow..."
…
Chu State, Kyoto.
Prince's Mansion.
"They won't arrive until tomorrow. They're really moving slowly along the way." The prince of Chu put down the letter in his hand and asked, "Do you think the king will go out of the city to greet him tomorrow?"
"Your Highness, this is absolutely impossible." A person stepped forward and said quickly: "Your Highness has such a status. It is impossible for a country's crown prince to lower his status. Not only that, before getting married, His Highness cannot meet Princess Pingyang of Chen State.
, this is the ancestral ritual system and must never be abolished.”
The prince of Chu frowned and said, "If I don't see her, how will I know whether she is beautiful or ugly, tall or short, fat or thin?"
The man hurriedly advised: "Your Highness, don't be impatient. There are many people in the court watching your Highness. If Your Highness makes a mistake, wouldn't it give them another opportunity?"
The Crown Prince of Chu slapped his hand on the table and said angrily: "Those old guys, all of them are thinking of letting King Xin replace me. When my father dies and I ascend the throne, the first thing to do is
, just kill them all!"
Xinwangfu.
The middle-aged man knocked on the door, walked into a certain room, and asked: "Tomorrow, the Chen envoy and Princess Pingyang will arrive in Beijing. Do you want to go and have a look?"
"I'm not going." Li Tianlan raised his head and said, "Tomorrow I will accompany my mother and concubine to offer incense."
"You have forgotten that in addition to sending a bride this time, they also want to propose marriage." The middle-aged man looked at her and asked, "You really don't want to go and see?"
"Not going."
"Forget it if you don't go." The middle-aged man smiled and said, "Please spend time with your mother and concubine. You don't have to worry about the envoys of Chen State. When the time comes, my father and the king will take care of them all for you..."
