The prime years never come again, and it is difficult to come back again in one day. You should be encouraged in time, and time waits for no one.
In the blink of an eye, it was the twelfth lunar month in Mo Dynasty.
"Mom, my son will be nine years old in a few days. My husband said that the county examination will be held in February this year, and my son will take part in the county examination." Chen Ziyuan looked forward to it.
After hearing this, Li Xiran smiled happily and said, "Okay. You have to work hard and strive to pass the county examination, government examination, and hospital examination."
"Well, I will definitely work hard." Chen Ziyuan smiled confidently.
After hearing this, Sun Chunxu on the side felt more and more that his past was not in vain, and encouraged Ziyuan: "Come on! Uncle Xu will cheer you up! Try to pass the exam! Only in the future will you have the opportunity to meet your father."
"Yeah!" Ziyuan responded.
I thought that life in the Jianghu was very beautiful, but in Sun Chunxu's eyes, it was not so beautiful now, and he felt like he was living like a commoner.
Since the fright at that celebration banquet, the emperor has not gone to court.
Although many ministers wanted to persuade the emperor, they were all persuaded by the two prime ministers.
Now, it is the twelfth lunar month, and the emperor has been staying in the Yongshou Hall, reading books, calligraphy and painting all day long.
"Prime Minister Su and Prime Minister Yang, it is now the twelfth lunar month. According to news from the front, the envoy from Wan Kingdom is coming to the capital with goods and will arrive soon. However, if the emperor does not greet him personally, I am afraid..." Ding, the Minister of Rites Liu said.
Listening to Ding Liuyi's words, Prime Minister Su Yunqi of the left glanced at Prime Minister Yang Youcheng of the right side: "In your opinion, how can this matter be resolved?"
"Back to Prime Minister Su, regarding this matter, Yang believes that the emperor should be rescued as soon as possible to avoid a series of troubles." Right Prime Minister Yang Youcheng replied.
After listening to Yang Youcheng's words, Su Yunqi, the prime minister of the left, was more or less reluctant, but he couldn't say it out loud.
"The two of us have a solution for this matter. Please come back, Ding Shangshu." Su Yunqi, the prime minister of the left, said.
"Okay. I'm resigning then." After saying that, Ding Liu, the Minister of Rites, walked down.
After seeing Ding Liu, the Minister of Rites, walking away, Su Yunqi looked at Yang Youcheng: "I don't think what you just said is appropriate."
"Please give me some advice," Yang Youcheng said.
Seeing that no one was walking this way, Su Yunqi lowered his head and whispered softly: "Don't look at people by their appearance. You know people and their faces but don't know their hearts. Since the emperor came to court, how many people have been there without interruption? The officials went to persuade him. Su looked through the entire officialdom. They just wanted to persuade the emperor to remove you and me from the position of prime minister in the future. "
"My benefactor, then what have we been doing for you all this time?" Yang Youcheng asked.
Su Yunqi nodded: "Now, it is better for the emperor to stay in Yongshou Palace. With you and me working for the emperor, the country will not be in chaos."
"What my benefactor said is absolutely true."
Soon, the envoy from Nawan Kingdom was not far from the capital.
The Ministry of Rites has arranged the city and outside the city well, and is now waiting for their arrival.
"Prime Minister Su, Prime Minister Yang!" Ding Liu, the Minister of Rites, hurriedly walked into the prime minister's house again.
"What's the matter?" Prime Minister Zuo Su Yunqi asked.
"Back to Prime Minister Su, the envoy from the Wan Kingdom is about to arrive in the capital. If the emperor has not greeted him personally, I might damage the friendship between the Mo Dynasty and the Wan Kingdom." Ding Liu, the Minister of Rites, was very worried.
"Where are you now?" Right Prime Minister Yang Youcheng asked.
"Go back to Prime Minister Yang, we are almost arriving in the capital."
After hearing this, Yang Youcheng looked at his benefactor Su Yunqi: "Prime Minister Su, how do you plan to deal with this matter?"
Su Yunqi, the Prime Minister of the Left, had no time to reply to Yang Youcheng's words, so he stood up and looked at Ding Liu, the Minister of Rites: "Go and check carefully to see if there is anything wrong. I have my own way to deal with it."
"Okay. I will resign." After saying this, Ding Liu, the Minister of Rites, hurried away.
"Go and tell all the ministers to meet you at Ankang Hall." Su Yunqi ordered.
"Okay." After answering, Yang Youcheng hurriedly went to do it.
Su Yunqi hurried all the way to the household department.
"Su Xiang!"
"Su Xiang!"
Along the way, people kept saying hello.
"Where is Shangshu Cen?" Su Yunqi shouted hurriedly.
After hearing this, Cen Wenxing, the Minister of Household Affairs, hurried over to greet him.
Although the two families are in-laws, Su Yunqi is now Prime Minister Zuo, who is more powerful than this person and has more than ten thousand people, so the rules are naturally fulfilled.
"Xiang Su, I don't know what you want to talk to me about?" Cen Wenxing, the Minister of Household Affairs, asked without knowing anything.
"The envoy from Wan Kingdom will arrive in the capital soon. Are all the cloths and brocades for this year ready?"
"Everything is ready when we return to Prime Minister Su." Cen Wenxing smiled broadly.
"Okay. Although our country is far superior to the Wan Kingdom, this product must show the magnanimity of our Mo Dynasty."
"That's right." Cen Wenxing was very confident.
"Okay. Now the envoy from Wan Kingdom will arrive in the capital soon. All the officials will greet him in front of Ankang Palace in a while."
"good."
"Then I say goodbye."
After giving the instructions, Su Yunqi hurried out of the household department and rushed to the layout office for on-site inspection.
"Ding Shangshu. Where are you?" Huang Zhiyuan, the prime minister of Zuo, asked.
Outside the city, the two prime ministers and Ding Liu, the Minister of Rites, were waiting here. Many people gathered on both sides of the city.
"Soon." Ding Liu, the Minister of Rites, replied.
"good."
After speaking, I saw people from the Liangwan Kingdom riding horses in front of me, and several carriages pulling goods behind me.
I saw that the two envoys from Wan Kingdom were wearing clothes with wide sleeves and wide body, very unique hats on their heads, and long beards.
The two envoys stopped when they reached the city gate.
After the two prime ministers met, they hurried over.
"I am the Prime Minister Zuo of Da Mo, and I am here to welcome the Dawan envoy to Beijing." Su Yunqi, the Prime Minister Zuo, said with a salute.
On the side, Prime Minister You and Ding Liu, the Minister of Rites, performed the ceremony together.
"Why did His Majesty Damo come today?" an envoy asked.
"Two envoys from Dawan, your Majesty, I am feeling a lot of discomfort today. The imperial doctor has diagnosed you and you cannot see the wind. I have been specially sent to greet you." Su Yunqi, Prime Minister of the Left, replied.
Looking at the bustling capital and the people welcoming them, the two envoys smiled slightly.
"On behalf of His Majesty Damo, the Prime Minister respectfully invites the Dawan envoy to come to Beijing!" the two prime ministers said.
After hearing this, the envoy from Liangwan Kingdom pulled up the reins, smiled slightly, and drove his horse towards the city.
Almost every household in the capital came out to greet him.
Just because everyone is very curious about outsiders, they are willing to come out.
"Dad! Who are they?" A boy asked standing in front of his father.
"They are people who have friendship with our Mo Dynasty, just like you and your friends."
The envoy from Wan Kingdom, who was riding on a horse, was very happy to see the people of Da Mo being so enthusiastic.
Following him all the way, he finally entered the palace.
At this moment, the envoy from Wan Kingdom had not yet arrived, and the civil and military officials standing in Ankang Hall began to discuss.
It wasn't until he saw the envoy from Wan that he shut up obediently.
Prime Minister Su Yunqi on the left and Prime Minister Yang Youcheng on the right hurriedly walked to the civil and military officials and the Wan envoy, and spoke:
"Today! It is the sixteenth year of the signing of the friendship alliance between Da Mo and Wan. Welcome Da Wan's envoy to Beijing!" Su Yunqi, the prime minister of the left, smiled broadly.
"On behalf of the Emperor of Wan, I have come to say hello to His Majesty Damo. Now I know that His Majesty Damo is in many discomforts and has not been able to see the wind. Just in time, our country, Wan, has brought ten boxes of cordyceps and nine hundred of Wan's finest brocades. Horses, twenty boxes of snow lotus, ten boxes of deer antlers..."
Listening and listening, many officials standing aside were very envious, wishing in their hearts to have so many medicinal materials and brocade.
"The two of us have thanked the Emperor of Dayuan on behalf of your majesty! Today, the two envoys are here. They have worked hard all the way. The Prime Minister has arranged a banquet. I hope that the two envoys from the Wan Kingdom will stay and drink together." Su Yunqi, Prime Minister of the Left, said.
"The two of us thank Emperor Mo on behalf of His Majesty the Wan Kingdom!" the envoys from the two Wan Kingdoms said.
After hearing this, Su Yunqi smiled slightly.
The banquet was quickly set up in front of the Ankang Hall, with thousands of large-ink delicacies placed on a large table.
Seeing this, the ministers were greedy.
The emperor, who had not come out of Yongshou Palace, wanted to see these goods, but thought about the assassination that day and gave up the idea.
"Queen Mother. I heard that a messenger came today, and I want to take a look." Yuanhua began to beg Queen Su Wanyue to get up.
After knowing this, the queen smiled slightly, touched Yuanhua's head and said: "Your father is not feeling well today. If he doesn't go, you can't go. Be obedient and wait until next year. We will convince your father to take you." Go, okay?"
"Okay!" Yuanhua responded happily.
Seeing such a well-behaved child, Emperor Su's face showed joy and he smiled slightly, looking very touching.
A few days later...
The envoy from Wan Kingdom was ready to leave after being given good wine, food and good treatment in Damo.
"This is a small gift that I, the great Mo, have prepared for Wan Kingdom. I will take it with me when I go back this time." Su Yunqi said with a smile.
"On behalf of His Majesty Wan Guo, we would like to thank Emperor Damo for his kindness. We have accepted these gifts." The two envoys thanked him.
At this moment, there was heavy snow falling over Yanyang City. Prime Minister Su Yunqi of the Left and many officials stood at the city gate to see him off.
"Okay. I wish the friendship between Damo and Wan will last forever!" Su Yunqi said.
"Friendship lasts forever." The two envoys saluted.
Afterwards, the two envoys and the coachman from Wan State carefully loaded these large boxes of things into the carriage and returned home fully loaded.
After watching the envoy go away, Ding Liu, the Minister of Rites, spoke up: "Xiang Su, it seems that without you, this reception might not have gone so smoothly."
Su Yunqi smiled and glanced at Yang Youcheng, the right prime minister: "It's just all of you helping together. Okay, it's getting late, everyone, please go back."
There is heavy snow in Yanyang City, but in Xitong County in Guangnan, there is still warm sunshine.
"Zi Yuan. Does your head still hurt?" Li Xiran asked worriedly.
Ziyuan lay on the bed and shook his head: "It's much better. Mom, don't worry."
"As long as it's better." Li Xiran smiled.
"Mom, help me get the book on the table," Zi Yuan said.
Listening to Zi Yuan's words, Li Xiran was a little reluctant: "Your fever has just gone away. If you read a book for a while, your head won't hurt again, right?"
Ziyuan shook his head: "Don't worry, mother. It won't happen. I just happen to be bored when I'm lying down. If I have a book with me, I won't be bored anymore."
After hearing this, Li Xiran stood up, walked to the desk, took the book from the desk, and handed it to Zi Yuan: "Okay. Then you should pay attention to your health. If you feel uncomfortable, tell your mother."
"good."
