Chapter 339: The two successfully meet the gold master
Zhao Bai finally decided to go to the palace with Qin Shaobai to meet Wanyan Yongji.
However, Zhao Bai was unwilling to see King Wei Shao as an envoy of the Song Dynasty.
"Shaobai, we should test whether Wanyan Yongji is worth our help."
Qin Shaobai was speechless.
But he didn't have anything to say.
In fact, the purpose of their coming was not to help Wanyan Yongji.
"Then what identity should we use to see him?"
"Let's pretend to be strange people. Let's say that we observed the sky at night and discovered that the Kingdom of Jin may be in disaster, so we came here to propose a clever plan to the emperor?"
When Zhao Bai heard this, he burst into laughter.
I didn't expect this idea to be a good one.
Not long after, Wanyan Yongji asked someone to take them into the palace and said he wanted to meet them both.
The place the attendant took them to was not the Yongle Palace, but the Imperial Garden.
Wanyan Yongji was sitting in the hall, flanked by two beautifully dressed women.
Zhao Bai's brows immediately twisted into a knot.
"What strange phenomenon did you two discover, and what impact does it have on our country, the Golden Kingdom?"
Wanyan Yongji didn't even raise his eyes, and asked coldly while eating the grapes handed to him by the woman.
Zhao Bai's face was extremely dark. He was about to take a step forward, but was held back by Qin Shaobai.
"Back to the Emperor, our senior brothers arrived in Zhongdu a few days ago. When we looked at the sky last night, we found that the crape myrtle star on the horizon was very dark."
Wanyan Yongji was startled for a moment, and with a wave of his hand, the two women retreated.
Seeing that Wanyan Yongji's attention had been perfectly attracted to him, Qin Shaobai added, "I dare to ask the emperor if anything happened in the emperor's capital recently that made the emperor panic. For example, the emperor wanted to kill him.
But you can’t drive away the people you drive away?”
Wanyan Yongji immediately thought of the failed attempt to assassinate Genghis Khan at the beginning of the year.
At the same time, he thought of the provocation Wanyan Xun and the ministers challenged him not long ago.
This Wanyan Xun was indeed the person he wanted to get rid of but couldn't.
"Two experts, you are still awesome. There are indeed some things happening in our country that make me upset. I wonder if the two experts can give me some advice."
"The purpose of our brothers coming to see the Emperor is to relieve the Emperor of his worries."
"Okay, come here, prepare two jade stools for the two masters to sit down, and ask Concubine Lan to prepare some pastries. I want to have a good talk with the two masters."
Before the three of them could talk for a while, they smelled the elegant fragrance of orchids.
"Your Majesty, I heard that two noble men came here. I specially made some orchid cakes and invited the two noble men to have a taste."
A sweet voice like an oriole floated over along with the fragrance.
The two people quickly raised their heads and couldn't help but stood there stunned.
The woman walking gracefully in front of her was dressed as a princess from the Kingdom of Jin, but her face was clearly that of Mu Qingyi.
A smile immediately appeared on Wanyan Yongji's face, and he stood up to greet Mu Qingyi.
At this time, Mu Qingyi's golden Yunyan sweater was embroidered with elegant orchids, and hanging on the ground was a hibiscus thousand water skirt with ancient patterns.
She has a towering bun and a hollow orchid hairpin, which is simple but reveals an intoxicating beauty and charm.
"Concubine Lan, come and meet these two noble men."
Mu Qingyi greeted her politely, and when she raised her face, she actually called out in surprise.
"Your Majesty, these two are the two heroes who saved Lan'er on the road a few days ago."
Zhao Bai and the others looked really confused.
When did they become heroes who saved people again, and the one they saved was Wanyan Yongji's beloved concubine.
When Wanyan Yongji heard that the two people in front of him turned out to be his beloved concubine's saviors, his attitude immediately changed 180 degrees.
"It turns out that these two are the ones who saved my beloved concubine. I am about to send people to find you two. Come on, the banquet is on the bell tower. I want to thank you both."
"Your Majesty." Mu Qingyi gently leaned into Wanyan Yongji's arms, "Your Majesty, I heard that these two benefactors of mine came to talk to you about important matters."
"Yes, yes, I almost forgot. Let's do this. Concubine, you go prepare the banquet first, and I will come back after I have finished talking to the two masters."
Mu Qingyi responded, smiled slightly at Zhao Bai and the others, and left gracefully.
"Two experts can rescue my beloved concubine from the hands of the thief. Their skills must not be underestimated."
Wanyan Yongji's eyes suddenly dimmed.
"Recently, I have often felt depressed in my heart. I believe these two experts can figure out what worries me."
This is a very wise question.
Aren’t you experts?
Don’t you know how to observe the sky at night?
Can't you rescue my beloved concubine?
Then you must know what is bothering me.
Qin and Zhao looked at each other.
"Your Majesty, what has upset you lately is that you cannot hammer that piece of iron into what the Emperor wants."
When Zhao Bai said this, Wanyan Yongji's eyes lit up.
"Yes, yes, this piece of iron is really giving me a headache. Come on, two masters, let's go into the palace and have a good chat."
Zhao Bai sat opposite Wanyan Yongji, and Qin Shaobai consciously stood behind Zhao Bai.
Although Wanyan Yongji was a little confused, he didn't ask anything.
On the way to the palace, Qin Shaobai had simply told Zhao Bai everything he could tell Zhao Bai.
He told Zhao Bai that the purpose of coming this time was to make Wanyan Yongji realize that Genghis Khan would not give up and continue to attack Zhongdu, so the immediate task was to strengthen the army and the people and repair the city.
At first, Qin Shaobai was a little worried that Zhao Bai could not understand these things. After all, Zhao Bai was used to roaring when he saw injustice on the road, and his hands would turn into rivers of blood.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Bai made these suggestions so clear that Wanyan Yongji couldn't help but nod.
"Two experts, I have been worried about that piece of iron coming over these days, fearing that the people of Zhongdu will be smashed to pieces. Now, with the advice of these two experts, I have an idea.
"
Wanyan Yongji shouted to the door, and a handsome man came over.
"Two masters, this is my captain of the bodyguard, Wei Daming. If you have any questions in the future, you can contact him."
After saying that, Wanyan Yongji asked where the two of them lived now.
Zhao Bai was about to tell where he was going, but was stopped by Qin Shaobai.
Qin Shaobai said that he was just staying in a small restaurant temporarily.
Wanyan Yongji quickly said to Wei Daming: "Go and help the two masters move their luggage, and take them to live in my villa on East Street."
Zhao and Qin quickly declined.
Wanyan Yongji glared: "From now on, you two are my distinguished guests, Wanyan Yongji, and also the distinguished guests of the people of Zhongdu. How can you live in a small restaurant?"
