Zhang Yao's appearance was very unexpected. Princess Jin Yao looked at the officials and soldiers around her, as well as more and more people on the street. It was not the right time or place to talk.
"Zhang Yao, please stay here first." Princess Jin Yao said, and ordered an official beside her, "Arrange a place for Mr. Zhang, no, it's Mr. Zhang." She was afraid that the official didn't know Zhang Yao and would despise him, "This is Zhang Yao,
You know, he was praised by His Majesty as an official capable of controlling floods."
Of course this official knew Zhang Yao, but he was praised as a capable official by His Majesty. He was the favorite of Chen Danzhu. Chen Danzhu yelled at the Imperial Academy for this son. As for water control, I heard that it was under the guidance of Da Si Nong and several important officials.
It's quite a bit of talent.
Without waiting for the official to respond, Zhang Yao waved his hand: "No, no, no, I'm here to see you, princess."
Princess Jin Yao said: "I know, but I have to go out now. You wait until I come back first."
Zhang Yao still waved his hand: "The princess is going to Xiliang, I'm here to accompany her."
Accompany her? Princess Jin Yao was stunned for a moment, then smiled again: "Did Miss Weiwei or Danzhu tell you?" She was no longer polite and asked Zhang Yao to get in the car and talk.
Zhang Yao was not polite and came up carrying his own book.
The officials looked at me and at you. Firstly, they didn't react. Secondly, they didn't know how to stop me.
The carriage continued to move forward, and Zhang Yao put down the books. The books were full, and some pens fell down. Princess Jin Yao picked them up with a smile and handed them to him.
"Why are you here?" she asked, "Aren't you in Bian County?"
Zhang Yao said: "Bianqu has been stabilized. I am now checking Baiqu in Sanyuan and Jingyang. I received a letter from my sister Liu Wei and learned about the affairs in the capital."
Princess Jin Yao nodded.
"Weiwei told you about it. Miss Danzhu is in jail. She and Li Lian can't leave the capital, so she asked me to meet the princess on the way. At any rate, I am someone who has met the princess, so she can be considered an acquaintance.
Let’s talk.” Zhang Yao continued, “I received the letter and hurriedly came to Xijing.”
Saying this, he smiled again.
"This time I was much closer to Xijing than to the capital. When I caught up, I wasn't as tired as last time and couldn't even talk. Otherwise, my trip to see the princess would have been in vain."
Princess Jin Yao laughed loudly, knowing that the last time he was talking about was the time when Chen Danzhu killed Yao Fu. Danzhu told her afterwards that Zhang Yao was so tired from traveling in order to see her for the last time that he became mute.
"Don't be afraid if your voice becomes hoarse." She joked with a smile, "The doctor Yuan who cured you last time is in Xijing."
Zhang Yao also smiled: "Doctor Yuan is also in Xijing. I will also pay him a visit then."
Princess Jin Yao smiled and gestured to him: "Here are towels, water basins, tea and snacks. You can do whatever you want. Although your voice is not hoarse, you are exhausted from the long journey here."
There was still no maid around Princess Jin Yao, so she couldn't let the princess pour her tea with her own hands. Zhang Yao rolled up his sleeves, washed his hands politely, poured the tea himself, and picked up snacks to eat. "I'm either walking in the barren mountains or in the river.
It was too late when I received the news. When I got here, the princess was about to leave, alas——"
So I can't stay with her, the princess who married to Xiliang, for long? Princess Jin Yao pursed her lips and smiled: "You did receive the news late and don't know the latest news."
Zhang Yao bit her snack and looked at her in confusion.
"My father has recovered from his illness, so I don't need to marry to Xiliang anymore." Princess Jin Yao said with a smile, "I am now serving as an envoy to convey my father's will to the King of Xiliang."
Zhang Yao swallowed the snack hard with his eyes rounded, and said with his hands: "That's great, that's great, I knew she was a lucky princess." He clasped his hands in front of him and muttered something about which god or Buddha he was thanking.
Princess Jin Yao looked at him with a smile. Although she was not afraid of being alone, her happiness would increase if there were others to be happy with.
"So, you don't have to go out of your way to give me a ride." She said with a smile, "You can go back to Xijing and have a good rest. If you are not in a hurry, just wait for me to come back and we will see you again."
Zhang Yao waved his hand again: "Although there is no need to go to Xiliang, the princess still has to meet the people of Xiliang. She is still alone, so I will accompany you." After saying this, he asked again, "Where will the princess meet the people of Xiliang?"
people?"
The princess took out the map from the small drawer on the side.
"It's great that the princess also likes to look at maps." Zhang Yao praised at the side.
She didn't like it much at first, but after leaving the capital, she couldn't help but look at it every day to see how far away from home she was after arriving in Xiliang - she got used to it after looking at it, and she didn't think about home, but the big city.
Xia is so big, but she is so small. She has never been anywhere, and people can't go there, so she just wants to think about it.
"Like Danzhu, if you put honey on your lips, you can boast about anything anytime, anywhere." Princess Jin Yao smiled and pointed to a place on the map, "We have decided on this place, Fengcheng."
Zhang Yao touched his palms: "That's great, I was just thinking about visiting the ancient Yellow River waterway in Fengzhou."
Princess Jin Yao laughed: "Then I will make it convenient for you."
Listening to the laughter coming from the car, the officials outside the car looked at each other and exchanged helpless looks. This Zhang Yao is quite capable. Not only can he make Chen Danzhu yell at the Imperial Academy for him, he can also beg for help.
The princess is so happy.
But what can be done? The princess doesn't open her mouth to drive the people away, and they can't say anything. Now the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, and the princess is the biggest.
Zhang Yao was riding in the princess's carriage like this. Although the two were not familiar with each other, he was not embarrassed and had nothing to say. Zhang Yao showed Princess Jin Yao the records and pictures of the mountains, rivers and rivers he had visited these days.
Princess Jin Yao watched it with gusto.
The journey of seven or eight days came quickly.
In a wilderness outside Fengzhou City, you can see the Xiliang people's camp in the distance.
"Why are there so many tents?" Zhang Yao looked at them and asked in surprise.
Although the officials who greeted Fengzhou City did not know who the man sitting in the princess car was, they still responded respectfully: "The Crown Prince of Xiliang came in person, with a few more entourages, but more
It’s a gift, with more than a dozen cars and cattle and sheep.”
That's it, Zhang Yao won't ask anymore.
Princess Jin Yao asked him: "Do you want to arrange for local officials to accompany you?"
Zhang Yao waved his hand: "No, that would be inconvenient and time would be wasted. The princess can just arrange a horse for me."
Princess Jin Yao asked the people around her to give Zhang Yao a horse and pack food and drink for him: "It will be over in about two or three days, but we can wait until you finish reading and go back together."
Zhang Yao responded politely and rode away with his luggage.
The people from Xiliang in the camp had already heard the news and came to greet her. The crown prince of Xiliang watched with his own eyes as the gorgeous princess drove a young man out of the car, and then bid farewell to the princess.
"I heard that the princesses in the Central Plains keep love slaves." He sighed to the followers around him, "It turned out to be true when I saw them today."
These words made the Daxia officials look embarrassed. They wanted to explain that this was not the case, but they couldn't explain it - they could only say that Zhang Yao was an eunuch.
Princess Jin Yao was not angry. She stopped the officials with a smile and asked the carriages and horses to come closer. She looked at the Crown Prince of Xiliang, seemingly curious and satisfied: "I have never seen the Crown Prince of Xiliang look like this."
Man, you look unique."
Now it was the turn of the Xiliang officials to feel a little embarrassed. The crown prince of Xiliang was startled, then laughed loudly and said to Princess Jinyao: "Thank you very much for the compliment, princess." He extended his hand to invite the princess, "Please come to the camp."
Princess Jin Yao nodded: "Master is late, I hope the Crown Prince will forgive me."
This is the territory of Daxia. Even if you walk into the camp of the Xiliang people, they are also the masters. Princess Jin Yao answered this way without any omissions and with sharp words. The officials who followed felt relieved and looked proud. Unexpectedly, they were pampered and forced
The princess who came to get married turned out to be so powerful.
From this point of view, the prince's agreement to marry Xiliang is an illusion, but it actually has a deeper meaning.
The two parties entered the camp, and Princess Jin Yao also declined the Xiliang Crown Prince's suggestion to rest and have a banquet.
"I'm not tired. Although this is the first time I've walked such a long distance, I'm still at home." Princess Jin Yao said with a smile, "As for the banquet, we can celebrate together after we finish talking about the matter."
The crown prince of Xiliang could only respond, and the two sides set up a table in the center of the camp. Officials from Honglu Temple conveyed the good news of the emperor's recovery to the people of Xiliang.
This news surprised the people of Xiliang, but what surprised them even more was that the emperor broke the engagement.
"Although that was what the prince said, the prince represented the emperor at that time. How could you go back on your word?" Xiliang officials angrily accused.
The official of Honglu Temple said: "It is for the sake of keeping the promise that we cannot do this. The emperor has already engaged the princess. However, you don't need to be angry. It's just that the marriage between Princess Jinyao and the crown prince cannot be completed. Your Majesty is very willing for your princess to marry."
Come here so that you and I can still get married."
Princess Jin Yao sat in the middle and said with a smile: "I heard that the Crown Prince brought many gifts for me."
The Crown Prince of Xiliang nodded: "Yes, I really can't wait to pour my heart out to the princess."
Princess Jin Yao smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, these gifts will be regarded as your princess's dowry. Your sister and Daxia can feel the crown prince's feelings."
...
.......
For the people of Xiliang, the meeting was unpleasant but there was no way to break up.
The princess of Daxia did not return to the nearest city to rest, but also camped here and became the master of it.
The Crown Prince of Xiliang returned to his tent surrounded by his entourage. Compared with the anger of his entourage, he looked very happy.
The maids raised the curtains, and the crown prince of Xiliang walked in and untied his tied robes.
"I have to say, the princess of Daxia is as dazzling as a gem." He smiled, "It really makes my heart beat."
Neither the entourage nor the maids followed, but the Xiliang Crown Prince was not talking to himself. On the main seat of the camp, half lying on the main seat of the camp, was a man wrapped in thick robes. He seemed to be very old, with gray hair.
, his face was weak and his eyes were a little cloudy.
"Yes." Hearing what the Crown Prince of Xiliang said, he smiled, "My cousin the emperor has given birth to very powerful children."
