Duan Yunyi quickly calmed down.
This guy spoke very tactfully and took good care of her face!
"Your Majesty is the future leader of the Great Zhou Dynasty. You should really take care of yourself." Liang Xiao sighed.
Duan Yunyi just nodded, suppressing the resentment in his heart, and secretly sighed: "The future of Dazhou actually lies with you..."
Thinking of the marriage arranged by the late emperor, Duan Yunyi felt a little more guilty.
"I know, I will find a way to compensate you!" Duan Yunyi couldn't help but hum.
Liang Xiao looked serious again.
"If your Majesty really wants to make amends, and when the world is at peace, please allow me to retire after my achievements."
Duan Yunyi was startled and said in despair: "If you really want to see all the great rivers and mountains, I..."
Liang Xiao shook his head: "I suddenly thought of something recently: If I want to achieve peace in the world, I really need to see all the great rivers and mountains. Therefore, I am actually putting the cart before the horse."
Duan Yunyi tasted it carefully and was shocked.
Does he mean that one day he will conquer the north and south for the Great Zhou Dynasty in exchange for peace in the world?
At this time, Yun Yi couldn't bear to spoil Liang Xiao's mood, and just said vaguely: "We will work step by step, let's talk about it later..."
Liang Xiao smiled and nodded.
The atmosphere at the scene returned to awkward silence.
Duan Yunyi couldn't bear it anymore and quickly called Xuan Wei in. On the pretext of going back to rest, he hid under the quilt in the palace.
Liang Xiao finally left the palace alive.
At the same time, in the secret room of the Gongsun family.
Gongsun Wuji's hand holding the third issue of the newspaper was trembling.
"How can a newspaper's public opinion, spread out in hundreds of words, be so powerful?!"
"Mingfeng! Lord Zhuo! I informed my third sister to come over. Is it the right choice?"
Zhuo Mingfeng frowned and said, "Can you please stop mentioning your third sister? This is the capital, not Bashu. You didn't listen to my advice anyway, so you're not afraid of compensating her too."
Gongsun Wuji gritted his teeth and said: "Zhuo Mingfeng, even if you can't trust me, you can't underestimate my third sister, right? My third sister is much more sensible than the little sister's stinky girl. At least she knows who is her real brother, and she can't compensate!"
Zhuo Mingfeng looked helpless: It's been a few days, and the two elders are still discussing whether the third sister will come.
"I told you, we have to capture Liang Xiao before he surrenders to the Empress. Now that he has surrendered, your third sister should go back. I think Liang Xiao is indeed a hero among people, but he must also be very deep. The essence of black, maybe..."
Gongsun Wuji roared: "The more shameless he is, the more he can coax my little sister into running around, and the less I can stand by and watch! We will return to Bashu in a while, leaving my third sister here to take charge of the overall situation , acting according to the situation is the best choice, right?"
"Zhuo Mingfeng, say something? I'm so scared if you don't speak!"
"Can you change the topic?" Zhuo Mingfeng couldn't help rolling his eyes.
Gongsun Wuji grabbed Zhuo Mingfeng's collar and said viciously: "You damn ghost, if you don't come up with a solution for me, I will tell my second sister that you are messing around with women outside."
Zhuo Mingfeng's pupils shrank and he said quickly: "Calm down first, don't always taint my innocence! Didn't someone come from Dachu again? My people instigated her before she entered the capital. This is Li Daitao's stiffness. If If the other party can find ways to hold Liang Xiao hostage, there is no need to trouble your third sister."
Gongsun Wuji then put Zhuo Mingfeng down with a depressed look on his face.
"You didn't tell me earlier! I, the great General Bashu, would worry about my two sisters. It's a shame and a shame!"
"You may be more shameless than Liang Xiao." Zhuo Mingfeng simply ignored him and sat down to drink tea alone.
In Honglu Temple, Xing Feng looked at the third issue of the newspaper on the table with a calm expression.
"Little Marquis, this newspaper's control over public opinion is so unexpected. What should we do?" Xing Hai was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.
Xing Feng sighed: "This person can also be kind to the refugees and provide relief with work. He is truly a hero. He may be the key to good relations between the two countries."
Xing Hai was speechless.
He has always trusted the young prince's judgment.
"Master Xing is too cowardly!"
Suddenly a majestic female voice came from the distance.
Xing Feng followed the sound and saw that she was a woman wearing armor. The mask covered the lower half of her face. Only a pair of sword-shaped eyebrows, a pair of sharp eyes, and a little cinnabar between her eyebrows were visible.
"See General Li!" The two attendants saluted the visitor in unison.
Li Xinwen, the first female general in the history of Da Chu, was called a heroine by the people of Da Chu. She was young and had great military exploits!
"Cowardly?" Xing Feng smiled slightly, noncommittal.
Li Xinwen said coldly: "I have heard about Liang Xiao. Since he is a hero in your words, how can Da Chu sit back and watch him grow? As an envoy of Da Chu, you should put Da Chu's interests first! "
Xing Feng said disapprovingly: "Of course I put the interests of the people first, but the situation is unclear at the moment. We should wait and see. How can we rush into the game? As for Liang Xiao, this is the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty, not the territory of the Great Chu. How can you and I do it?" Is it possible to stir up trouble here but not affect our country?"
Li Xinwen frowned and said, "I can't help you, but don't forget that you are the chief envoy and I am the deputy envoy and are qualified to discuss all matters!"
"What's your advice, General Li?" Xing Feng said with a smile.
Li Xinwen responded proudly: "Tomorrow the Japanese general will go with you to meet the Empress of Zhou. According to rumors, Liang Xiao will also be present. I would like to see what he is capable of that makes you so cowardly!"
Xing Feng agreed with a smile and said: "Xia Chong can't talk about ice. I believe that General Li has his own sense of discretion and will definitely not destroy the good relations between the two countries."
"Hmph! What a worry! After a while, you and I will have to return to the country to resume our duties. This general should do his best for the country and consider the country's face!" Li Xinwen turned and left.
After Xing Hai watched Li Xinwen leave, he laughed dryly and said: "Why is General Li so angry today? In the past, he could only speak out against the young marquis, but now he directly accuses the young marquis of cowardice."
"She may have been instigated by Bashu. I heard that the third young lady of the Gongsun family cherishes each other and is like a sister. I hope she won't let her emotions interfere with national affairs."
After Xing Feng finished speaking, he smiled helplessly.
Dachu sent out what was known as the best men and women in the country. It was indeed a good opportunity for him and Li Xinwen to gain both fame and fortune.
But Liang Xiao's appearance changed his view...
The next day, Liang Xiao followed Zhuge Hui into the palace. He was in the last row of a group of civil servants and walked into the palace together.
On the way, Liang Xiao also felt the disgusted looks of many ministers.
Generally, only officials from the fourth rank and above were eligible to participate in the court meetings of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and he was just a temporary seventh-rank official.
After all the officials entered the palace, Liang Xiao stood in the last row on the right, looking at Duan Yunyi on the dragon chair.
Today's empress is different from yesterday's embarrassment. She looks majestic and dignified, sacred and inviolable.
After all the officials saluted, Duan Yunyi said loudly: "The envoy of Da Chu has entered the palace."
Xing Feng and Li Xinwen led Xing Hai and four others into the palace and bowed three times to Duan Yunyi.
"I have met the Emperor of Zhou!"
Just as Duan Yunyi was about to speak, Duanmujie, the official minister on the left, immediately came out and pointed to Liang Xiao at the end on the right: "Your Majesty, I have something to report! Today is an important day to summon the envoys of Da Chu. This Liang Xiao He's just a seventh-grade official, so what qualifications do he have to attend the meeting!"
Duanmu Cao, the younger brother behind Duanmu Festival, immediately came out to support: "I second the proposal! The participation of seventh-rank officials in the court meeting is a mess of etiquette and law, and a mess of officialdom!"
Duan Yunyi stared at the brothers with a cold face, and felt an unknown anger in his heart.
Even if you are dissatisfied with this kind of thing, you should discuss it afterwards and raise it in front of the envoys of other countries?
It’s so generous!
Li Xinwen, who was wearing a mask, looked back at where Duanmujie was pointing, and then at Xing Feng, who was frowning, with a bit of sarcasm in his eyes.
