Even though they traveled day and night along the way, when they arrived at Chang'an City, it was already the morning of July 10th...
On the other side, Zhang Tu Pegasus sent the messenger to the new city. After finally exhausting two horses along the way, he finally arrived at the new city. However, he received the news that Liu Deng and the others had returned to the court.
With no choice but to catch up again, his luck was really bad. It took a lot of effort to catch up with the army, but Liu Deng actually returned to Chang'an City one step ahead...
After this back and forth, the letter that should have been delivered to Liu Deng long ago was delayed for another seven days...
Maybe this is destiny. The original Seven Kingdoms Rebellion has now become the Six Kingdoms. However, even so, the number of rebels has reached a terrifying number.
Of course, Liu Deng still knows nothing about all this...
"What time is it now?"
After rushing into Chang'an City, Liu Deng stopped a Jinwu Guard soldier directly outside the Jinma Gate.
"Reporting to His Majesty the King, it is already Chen time and the great court meeting has begun!"
The soldier was about to get angry, but after seeing Liu Deng's face clearly, he quickly swallowed all the anger on his face.
This king is a character who can walk around in the palace. Just the soldiers guarding the city really can't afford to offend the great god Liu Deng.
"Damn it! Just wait here!"
Liu Deng took a deep breath. It was too late for him to change into court uniform at this time. Otherwise, he didn't know what kind of trouble would be caused at the court meeting today. Anyway, he was wearing a royal robe, so it was not considered rude.
"promise!"
The soldiers behind Liu Deng responded quickly, then got off their horses and stayed obediently outside the door of the Golden Horse.
Further inside the Golden Horse Gate is the Royal Palace, which is not a place where people like them can set foot.
Although it is still the Han Dynasty, the etiquette system is far from as complete as that of later generations.
However, no matter which dynasty or generation it belongs to, this palace is not a place that ordinary people can desecrate.
Even Liu Deng could only dismount his horse obediently and walk all the way up to the palace.
"Reporting to His Highness the Crown Prince, I thought that the request made by the Wuhuan envoy sounded a bit harsh, but it was not too much!"
After all, the Wuhuan people have been in Chang'an City for so many days, and there is no way to delay this matter. Originally, Liu Qi was planning to push this matter away at today's court meeting, but he did not expect that the Wuhuan people As soon as the envoy finished speaking, Wang Yi's "Reading Liu" actually jumped out.
"Marquis An Guo, I don't know what your intentions are when you say this? Don't you know that the little girl from the Dou family has been betrothed to His Highness the King of Dai as your wife?"
Seeing Wang Zhen unexpectedly jump out to support the Wuhuan people, this really baffled Marquis Tangyi who came here specially.
"What are you saying, Marquis Tangyi? Aren't these my old words for seeking a country? Even if His Highness Daiwang has just made great achievements, so what? Is it still comparable to Wuhuan's contribution to the country? Don’t you know that if Wuhuan surrenders, to the Huns, this will break their arm?"
"Your Highness, you must not do it. Listening to the words of such a villain, I think this is clearly stirring up trouble! Your Highness, Prince Dai, and the girls from the Dou family have already performed the six rituals. How can there be any daughter in the court who is about to be married? , What’s the reason for marrying someone else?”
Anyway, no matter what, Tang Yihou can't just watch Liu Deng's wife disappear like this...
"Your Highness the Crown Prince, I think the words of the Marquis of Tangyi are absurd! Since King Wuhuan has fallen in love with my Han Dynasty's daughter, Your Highness Dai Wang should give up her love and use a woman to exchange for my Han Dynasty's peace in the next few decades. This matter , what can’t be done?”
"I believe that Marquis Anguo's words are reasonable! Please give your permission, Your Highness!"
What Liu Qi didn't expect was that someone would agree with such a ridiculous statement, and there were more than one or two people who agreed.
But after seeing the faces of these people clearly, he immediately understood that there was another conspiracy behind this matter.
These people are all the mouthpieces of the great princes in the court!
Although their scores are generally not high, in any case, the sudden response seems to be a little bit angry.
"You fart! You all can believe this nonsense that you can bring peace to the world by giving away a woman. This is clearly a stratagem used by Wuhuan to drive a wedge between Dai Guo and the imperial court! I thought it should be Immediately expel these people and ask His Highness the Crown Prince to warn you!"
What everyone didn't expect was that this guy Zhidu actually jumped out at this time and publicly supported Liu Deng.
This is really worth pondering...
After all, for so many years, Zhi Du has never clearly supported a certain person.
In the imperial court, he always came to see people as a lonely minister...
Apart from necessary official interactions, he almost never had any personal contact with other officials.
After I got off duty, I stayed at home most of the time and never went outside. I visited relatives and friends like everyone else...
But this guy actually made an exception for Liu Deng this time...
But his voice was immediately drowned out by the mouthpieces of the major princes. After all, it was difficult for two fists to defeat four hands. How could he quarrel with so many people by himself?
"Your Highness, you must think clearly. This is the letter of credence written by King Wuhuan to you. If you cannot even agree to such a small condition, my king will have no choice but to unite with the Huns to fight. The Han Dynasty!"
When he heard the noisy courtiers in the court, Tamuli immediately felt that something was wrong.
It seems that some of these Han people want to stand with themselves. This thing is really interesting.
Although he didn't know what the purpose of these people was, Tamuli still felt very excited since they were on his side.
Liu Qi's face turned livid. He never expected that he would have just rejected the matter in the court and it would be over, but there would be so many people jumping out to embarrass Liu Deng. It's obviously just to embarrass myself.
This time he was really caught in a dilemma. Now the opinions in the court were completely one-sided...
"Can I understand what you just said as a threat to our Han Dynasty, King Wuhuan?"
Just when Liu Qi was in a dilemma, the door of the main hall was suddenly pushed open, and then a man wearing golden armor walked in.
His right hand was tightly holding the hilt of the sword, facing the rising sun. His whole person looked like an unsheathed sword...
