Apparently there were many people who had the same idea as Bai Guo, especially the women from Chengzhou State. They all glanced outside, and then looked at these women with great envy.
It must be someone who is in excellent health to be able to resist freezing like this!
Xuanxian looked at these beauties and then asked, "Is this the gift you mentioned?"
This is just looking down upon.
Prince Xianguo immediately said: "The foreign minister has prepared a better gift for the emperor!"
The beauties in the hall all moved to the middle, and a screen was carried in from the outside. The screen was very large, two meters high and about four or five meters long.
The embroidery work on the screen is extremely brilliant, with two paintings on both sides, which is Suzhou embroidery on both sides.
The person carrying the screen showed the front and back of the screen to Xuanxian. The front was a landscape painting, and the back was a painting of snow falling in the woods.
Even the ministers of Chengzhou Kingdom looked sideways, admiring the artistic conception above, and they were even more amazed in their hearts.
Gingguo didn't move his eyes away after seeing the other side.
"It took the best embroiderer in the foreign minister's country to embroider this for a year. Does the emperor like it?"
Crown Prince Xianguo looked at Xuan Xian and asked a formal question, but the behavior of the courtiers in the court already told Crown Prince Xianguo the answer, and he couldn't help but have a proud expression on his face.
Xuanxian did not answer, but asked Xiang Baiguo: "The Lord of Kangle County has been staring at this painting, but do you like it?"
Bai Guo came back to his senses when he was called. He stood up and bowed to Xuan Xian and Prince Xianguo before saying, "My maid really likes it and is a little amazed. I didn't expect to see this rare double-sided Su embroidery with Prince Xianguo." Yeah, what’s more, the embroidery skills are so outstanding.”
Bai Guo's words made Prince Xianguo even more proud, and his posture became more and more high-spirited. When he heard that Xuan Xian called Bai Guo the head of Kangle County, he said directly: "The county head really has good eyesight. This embroiderer is the king of our country." He spent a lot of money to cultivate it specially! If the county master likes it so much, then the emperor must also like it very much!"
These words make people unhappy. Are they, the emperor of a large dynasty in the Zhou Kingdom, such an ignorant person? !
For a moment, all the ministers looked at Bai Guo and accused him of exaggerating.
Is it possible for a client state to want to ride on their head? !
Bai Guo raised his eyes and looked at the Prince Xianguo, smiled softly, and continued: "Compared to the embroidery work on the daily clothes of the Emperor and the Queen, this screen is really surprising to me. But when you hear the prince say this about happiness, you will understand."
These words are really shocking.
The things that Prince Xianguo said were embroidered by the embroiderers who spent a lot of money to train were not so surprising and rare in the Chengzhou Kingdom. This was enough to put Xianguo in shame.
But what the Lord of Kangle County meant was: It's surprising that your dynasty can have such good things, but when I heard that you said it was a specially trained embroiderer, it wasn't surprising.
Prince Xianguo's face turned green.
The first half of the sentence is as flattering as a flower, but the later words are really hurtful!
Xuanxian laughed, "Since Lord Kangle thinks so highly of the screen and likes it so much, then give it to Lord Kangle."
Bai Guofu bowed and said, "I thank you, Your Majesty!"
After saying a few words, I got a screen, and I felt relieved.
Prince Xianguo's face turned even greener.
"Is there anything else, Crown Prince?" Xuanxian looked at Crown Prince Xianguo who was still standing.
It's said to be civil strife, but that's not necessarily true. It's most likely that they knew something and wanted to resist.
Prince Xianguo saluted Xuanxian and sat back with an ugly expression.
Chengzhou's attitude was as tough as ever, and it didn't look like a country that wanted to go to war.
Si Jiaojie was smiling from beginning to end and did not participate in these topics. Her eyelids twitched when she heard that the screen was in Bai Guo's hands.
But when I turned around and saw my son, I felt particularly comfortable.
She is the most noble person now and will be the most noble person in the future. She should not argue with such charming things.
From now on, she will have plenty of opportunities to deal with people!
The banquet officially started, with singing and dancing, and it was very lively!
Everyone is talking and laughing, everyone is happy.
The screen was collected by the palace maid and will be delivered to the Bai family after the banquet.
Ging Guo was extremely happy. The snow in the screen was so lifelike that it oppressed everything below!
It probably can't fit in her boudoir, so why not put it in the side hall?
This way you can look at the screen after every bath.
This method is very good...
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, there are military reports coming in from outside!" A young eunuch came in and whispered a few words into Su Qing's ear. Su Qing stepped forward and whispered softly behind the Emperor.
Xuan Xian said in a deep voice directly after Su Qing's words: "Xuan."
Su Qing immediately straightened up and shouted, "Stop! Back off."
All the dancers stopped playing and took a few steps back.
The ministers, the envoys of Xianguo, and the Crown Prince were also surprised. What was going on?
"Enter the military messenger!" Su Qing raised her voice and shouted again. The soldiers in armor who were guarding outside walked into the palace, knelt down on one knee and said to the superior: "I have seen the emperor in my humble position, the queen. .”
Presenting the military report in his hand, Su Qing took a few steps down, took it with both hands, and handed it to Xuan Xian's hand.
Xuanxian opened it very neatly, unfolded the letter and read it.
Bai Guo felt vaguely that it was Yifeng's problem.
Sure enough, Xuanxian said in public after reading: "There was civil strife in Yifeng, and a new tribe called Zhige split off. It was located east of Yifeng and bordered Quan State. Its leader was Solomon. Solomon, the leader of Zhige, advocated that his country learn Planting, but originally Yifeng still insisted on natural selection. Now he has launched a powerful attack on traitors like Zhige, but Zhige can't hold on, and now he comes to ask for help, what do you think?"
The leader of Yifeng is Zang Zhi. The Yifeng he leads is a way of life in which the strong are respected, and all food sources are cattle, sheep or obtained from robbery. The weak will not only not be able to get food, but also may Slaughtered directly.
It is very possible for such a weak person who is not taken seriously to leave with Solomon.
But again, just because most of the people taken away were weak ones, it was only a matter of time before Yifeng, who was very good at robbery and had many strong men, defeated them.
Facing such a fierce Yifeng, Zhige couldn't resist it for long.
Yifeng's original geographical location was bordered by Linghu Prefecture of Zhou State to the west, Hongliang State to the north, Quan State to the northeast, and endless grasslands to the east and south.
And now that Zhige occupies the east side, it borders Quan State, which can be regarded as dividing most of Yifeng's grassland. No wonder Yifeng wants to attack in a hurry.
"Zhige has occupied the east, and it is obviously the closest to Quan State. Why did it cross Yifeng and come to our Chengzhou State to ask for help?" A minister was the first to express his opinion and looked at the others around him. Minister.
At this time, the originally lively place had already become deserted, and all the ministers straightened their expressions and began to think about this matter.
"In my humble opinion, Quan State does not have enough planting and is barely surviving by buying and selling grain with Hongliang State. Zhige may be afraid that Quan State will take the opportunity to take their territory into their own pocket. However, our Chengzhou State is close to Yifeng is across the country from Zhige. If we fight, we can directly send troops and retreat, which will not affect the introduction of the battlefield into their Zhge again. Even if we finally occupy the land, it will not be their Zhge's land, thus preventing "leading the wolf into the house" This kind of thing. "
It would be beneficial to the rule if Chengzhou State exhausted Yifeng's fighting power. It would be better if both countries were defeated. If Yifeng defeated Chengzhou State, then Yifeng would naturally not stare at their little It's a small piece of land, so it can be said that no matter what, they have room for buffering.
Even if the Chengzhou Kingdom did not send troops, they would still have two chances to seek help from the Quan Kingdom and the Hongliang Kingdom.
I have to say that this is very reasonable, and Bai Guo couldn't help but look over.
It was the prince himself who said this.
In the court, the prince would only call himself "minor minister" instead of "son minister". What we are talking about now is state affairs, so it is not surprising that the prince calls everyone this, because the prince is a person who is extremely strict with himself.
The prince is dressed in purple robes. He looks wealthy and has the temperament of a scholar, but he seems to have a very strong aura.
"Yeah." Xuan Xian nodded and said, "It makes perfect sense."
The prince stood up and bowed before sitting down again.
The queen's smile became more and more loving.
"The minister thought that we, the Chengzhou Kingdom, should send troops." The general of the Zhenjun also said: "The Chengzhou Kingdom has been without war for more than a year, and it has not shown our country's military force. It is easy for other countries to look down upon it. Yes, only sending troops can deter other dynasties that are ready to take action."
The envoy of Xianguo and the Crown Prince looked over at the same time.
Why does this sound so ambiguous?
"Wei Chen also thought we had to send troops! Only by sending troops can we train our troops, but Zhige's calculation is too good. We might as well talk to them about money and follow-up supplies." Prince Gong also spoke up.
"Yes." Xuanxian continued to nod, and then said: "What you said makes sense. You can send troops, but you can't help them fight in vain. You go back today and think carefully about who to negotiate with Zhige. Whatever you want, no matter how much you want, let’s leave it all now.”
This appearance during the Chinese New Year really put people off the mood to continue singing and dancing, and everyone got up and left one after another.
The soldier who sent the battle report has been taken down to rest.
The people who dedicated themselves to the country felt that their status was somewhat embarrassing, so they also withdrew.
Pang Yan put a cloak on Bai Guo and helped Bai Guo out of the hall. When passing by a palace maid, Bai Guo reminded: "The screen will be delivered to the Bai family tonight, remember?"
The palace maid's eyelids twitched.
The Lord of Kangle County is still concerned about a screen when important national events are ahead of him? !
"Slave, I will send someone to the county master!" I thought in my heart, but the palace lady did not dare to show anything on her face.
Bai Guo nodded, and then let Pang Yan help him out of the hall.
If it is delivered tonight, she can try taking a bath while looking at the snow scene. If the position is not suitable, she can change it.
Gingguo was in a good mood, and her pace along the way was lighter than before.
Pang Yan looked at Bai Guo quietly, hesitated and asked: "The county master... if he sends troops to Yifeng, will he need soldiers from Fengzhou?"
Bai Guo chuckled and looked at Pang Yan, "Are you worried about Brother Pang Yang?"
Pang Yan nodded and replied: "My parents only have one son, and I am afraid..."
Ging Guo was stunned for a moment.
