Dragging the afterglow of the setting sun, Zhao Wujiang returned to Shen Shen Palace. As soon as he arrived at the Yangxin Palace, Concubine Xiao Shu's personal maid Yu'er, whom he had met this morning, came up to him:
"Mr. Zhao, my queen, please go."
"Lead the way." Zhao Wujiang was dismayed.
at the same time.
In the east of Kyoto City, in the Pingkang Building, the guest house of Honglu Temple, the marriage banquet of Daxia and the Western Regions worshiping the moon officially began.
All the officials gathered in the main hall of the building. Xuanyuan Jing was sitting on a high position with a majestic look on his face.
"The Moon Worship Mission has arrived!" the eunuch's shrill voice sounded.
I saw the envoys from the Moon Worshiping Kingdom wearing Hu costumes, guarding Princess Yuxuan, as they walked into the main hall.
The officials became commotion, and the young talents behind them also became commotion.
The Moon Worshiping Princess has picturesque features, bright eyes and white teeth. She is incredibly beautiful, especially her pair of smart eyes, with blue eyes shining like gems.
At this moment, she was smiling slightly, but there was a cold aura all over her body that could repel people thousands of miles away.
The Iceberg Goddess's every smile has touched the hearts of these young talents. As long as they can impress the princess today, they will be able to win the honor of serving as the country's diplomatic relations and have the opportunity to fall into the arms of a stunning beauty.
"Dear Your Majesty, the conditions negotiated with your country are one hundred thousand stones of grain, twenty thousand horses of brocade, and three thousand horses of blood. Can you consider it?" Yuxuan, the moon-worshipping princess, stiffly said what the envoy taught her.
Xuanyuan Jing's brows were stained with frost, and just when he was about to speak, the commotion among the ministers started talking.
"Great Xia has a vast territory and is rich in resources. It is appropriate to give these materials to the moon for worship and marriage."
"Nowadays, peace is the most precious thing!"
"What Mr. Ji said is absolutely true. Tolerate the calm for a while, and the diplomatic relations between the two countries now are beneficial to the people. These conditions should be agreed to!"
"The conditions for marrying such a beautiful princess are not too many."
"..."
Hearing every word of convincing agreement, Xuanyuan Jing had a sad expression on his face:
"Shut up, everyone!"
In an instant, all the officials in the main hall in Pingkang Tower fell silent. The empress' anger was undisguised, and they were as silent as a cicada.
"I don't agree!" Xuanyuan Jing's cold eyes swept over everyone:
"Since the founding of the Great Xia dynasty, all the countries that came to court, even if they wanted to make peace, would pay tribute to Great Xia first, and then Great Xia would return gifts. Now, where does this leave the ancestral precepts and rules? Where does the majesty of Great Xia stand? land?"
"Your Majesty the Emperor, please calm down." The envoy of the Moon Worshiping Kingdom in the Western Regions was an old man with a pale face and bright eyes:
“My Majesty and the Queen love the princess and have made another request.
As long as there is any young talent in your country who can win the princess's heart-warming smile, the number of the previous food and splendid BMWs can be reduced or even cancelled. "
As soon as these words came out, the officials were in an uproar, and the young talents behind them were also trembling, and then they all started gearing up.
Here's your chance to show off!
They were high-spirited and eager to try. Looking at the iceberg saint-like Princess of the Moon Worshiping Kingdom, they were filled with confidence.
The descendants of hundreds of officials lined up to go on stage, ready to show off their splendor and win the beauty's heart-warming smile.
Xuanyuan Jing's handsome features contained majesty and hidden worry, while the moon worshiping princess Yu Xuan next to her had a cold face, looking for something in the crowd.
Her friend just now, judging from his behavior, must also be a Daxia official.
"My friend...will you come?"
No one knew what the Moon Worshiping Princess was thinking. The reason why she allowed Daxia's young talents to show off on their own was because she wanted to see Zhao Wujiang again.
At this moment, Li Chenxu, the Minister of Honglu Temple, held the roster and glanced at the young talents and slightly nervous colleagues who were full of excitement and anticipation. He slowly spoke and said loudly:
"The first one is Cao Shaobao, the son of the imperial censor."
As soon as he finished speaking, a handsome young man jumped up to the high platform for display. He was wearing an indigo gown and holding a mountain and river folding fan. He had a graceful demeanor and a slightly cold face.
The ministers below were all talking about it.
"Master Cao's son is really handsome and extraordinary."
"What a talented person. He has the demeanor of Mr. Cao back then."
"I just don't know if I can make the Moon Worshiping Princess fall in love..."
"It's just...why doesn't Mr. Cao speak?"
