Nalanjie had just finished speaking.
A young eunuch suddenly reported outside the palace: "Your Majesty, your envoy would like to see you..."
"not see!"
Nalan Jie was feeling irritable. He turned his head and stared at the little eunuch outside the palace with very sharp eyes. He couldn't do anything to Nalan Yan. Could it be that he couldn't deal with a little eunuch?
"roll!"
He was really angry with Nalan Yan. He couldn't hold it back and used the little eunuch as a punching bag. The emperor's power was very powerful.
"Yes, yes..." The little eunuch was so frightened that he still dared to stay here. He hurriedly ran away, for fear of being dragged out by Emperor Liao to fight.
Nalanjie finally vented a little of the anger in his heart.
When he turned to look at Nalan Yan again, his eyes were as gentle as possible and said: "Yan'er, have you forgotten what you said before my father's bedside?"
"That's what my father and you forced me to do. I can't count!" Nalanyan remained unmoved, still leaning sideways and holding her head high.
"you……"
Nalanjie rubbed his eyebrows, his face was very dark. He was like a powder keg in a fire, ready to explode at any time.
But soon, he calmed down again and ordered with a calm voice and a commanding tone: "Brother Su lives in the post house in the imperial city. You'd better go and accompany him."
"You have to go with me, I won't go anyway!" After Nalanyan said this, she ran out of the side hall and disappeared.
"This Yan'er..."
Nalanjie had a headache. He put his hand on his forehead and recalled what happened at the city gate yesterday. He was ashamed and embarrassed, and felt that he had been too neglectful towards Su Xian.
It's really too much.
He actually made Brother Su wait outside the city for so long.
As early as a long time ago, he admired Su Xian very much. If conditions allowed, he could talk to Su Xian all night long.
However, Su Xian is from the Central Plains after all, and he is from the grasslands. The border between Liao and Daliang has been in constant friction, and the hatred between the two countries has become deeper and deeper.
What was gratifying was that with the joint efforts of him and Su Xian, the two countries finally established diplomatic relations... This incident made him very happy, and he felt like he was "fighting side by side" with Su Xian.
This time, as the emperor of Liao, he invited Su Xian to go north to attend his coronation celebration. He wanted to receive him well and make Su Xian feel at home.
After all, Su Xian was very unhappy in the Liao Kingdom last time, and was almost forced to stay in the Liao Kingdom by the previous Liao Emperor, his biological father...
He thought that he must treat Su Xian well this time to eliminate the unpleasantness in the past and enhance his relationship.
Unexpectedly, Nalan Yan was too naughty, which prevented him from going out of the city to meet Su Xian immediately, leaving him to bask in the sun outside the city for so long.
Ashamed!
"I must give Brother Su the highest courtesy!"
Nalan Jie suddenly raised his head, stopped kneading his temples, his eyes were firm and lively: "I want to make amends, I want Brother Su to experience the feeling of being at home again!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he caught a glimpse of someone sneaking around outside the hall and poking his head out of the corner of his eye.
He could tell at a glance that this was the little eunuch just now.
Recalling what the young eunuch had just said about "someone asking to see you," he straightened his face and said loudly, "What are you doing sneakily? Come in and talk."
"My slave obeys the order." The young eunuch hurriedly entered the palace.
"I remember you just said someone asked to see you? Who is it?"
The little eunuch had just been scared away and didn't want to return so soon, but the man outside the palace refused to leave and said he must see His Majesty today.
He had no choice but to return.
But he was afraid that Emperor Liao had not yet calmed down, so he sneaked around outside the palace.
Now, he saw that Emperor Liao was much calmer and calmer. He felt relieved and immediately reported, "It's Su Xian, Taiwei Su, the noble envoy of Daliang!"
"What? Brother Su?!"
Nalan Jie's expression suddenly changed. He was so shocked that he stood up and stared at the little eunuch: "Brother Su, please see me. Why don't you report such an important matter immediately?"
Even though he said this, he also knew that the pot belonged to him.
How embarrassing!
Ashamed!
He just made up his mind to give Su Xian extremely high courtesy, but this is the result? Brother Su was rejected again! This almost drove him crazy.
"Your Majesty..." The little eunuch was completely dumbfounded and looked aggrieved, but he didn't dare to say anything.
"Okay, hurry up and invite Su Aiqing here. Don't be lazy, go quickly!" Nalan Jie waved his hand.
"Yes, yes, I obey."
After the young eunuch left, Nalanjie quickly calmed down. He thought about it, and finally walked out of the side hall and stood in the corridor waiting, with a group of eunuchs and maids standing beside him.
After a while, Su Xian arrived, and after a brief exchange of greetings, the two returned to the side hall arm in arm.
This scene once again shocked the maids and eunuchs. Su Xian and Emperor Liao not only had each other's backs, but also called them brothers. It was simply unbelievable.
In the side hall, the emperor and his ministers were seated separately.
Su Xian drank tea and chatted for a while, and finally explained his purpose of coming: "I have come to the palace to meet His Majesty this time. I have something to ask of you, and I hope Your Majesty will grant your permission."
Nalanjie was thinking about how to treat Su Xian politely, so he nodded immediately without thinking about it: "Su Aiqing, please tell me."
"I live in that post house and have nothing to do. I want to set up a kitchen in addition to the imperial kitchen to specialize in Central Plains dishes. It will add a touch of exotic style to His Majesty's enthronement celebration."
Su Xian said seriously.
After hearing this, Nalan Jie's smile slowly turned stiff, and he asked in surprise: "Su Aiqing...want to join the chef?"
What everyone didn't know was that there was an eunuch behind Nalanjie who heard Su Xian's request. His eyebrows jumped, he looked up at Su Xian, and then quickly lowered his head.
"Yes, I want to try to use ingredients from the Liao Kingdom to make the taste of the Central Plains. It will be very interesting to think about it." Su Xian nodded with a smile.
"Inappropriate!" Nalan Jie objected: "Su Aiqing is a distinguished guest of our Liao Kingdom, how can she join the kitchen? If it spreads, won't the world laugh at her?"
He had just made up his mind to give Su Xian high courtesy, but then he turned around and asked Su Xian to cook in the kitchen? This is impossible! He wouldn't agree to anything.
Su Xian knew that the matter was not that simple. Fortunately, he was prepared:
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. This incident is certainly shocking, but it also just illustrates the closeness between Liang and Liao. Your Majesty, please think about it. Isn't the meaning of Liao's ingredients making the taste of the Central Plains meaningful?"
Nalan Jie still shook his head: "But Su Aiqing is not a mortal after all. I rashly entered the kitchen. I'm afraid you will be tired, but it is still inappropriate."
Su Xian smiled and said: "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I am a restless person. If I don't find something to do, I feel uncomfortable all over. Please allow Your Majesty's permission."
Nalan Jie still shook his head: "I'm not afraid of being laughed at by the world, but I'm afraid that Su Aiqing's reputation will be damaged."
Su Xian's smile faded:
"What a coincidence, I am not afraid of being criticized. The strong will make themselves stronger. This is not given by others... If your Majesty insists on refusing, then I will have to return to Daliang and tinker with new dishes first."
"This is not okay!"
Nalanjie stood up immediately. If Su Xian returned to Daliang, wouldn't it mean that he didn't entertain him well? This is too bad!
After thinking about it, he finally nodded slowly: "Since Su Aiqing is so insistent, then I... that's right, Su Aiqing can do whatever he wants!"
Some people died, but not completely...
