Chapter 265 Madam's Instructions
Wei San immediately took the order and left.
After a while, the imperial kitchen was wrapped tightly.
A figure in the dark saw this scene, curled up the corners of his mouth, and disappeared in an instant.
Their master was right about Huo Jinjian; he was a capable man.
Huo Jin's eyes flashed when he heard the rustling of leaves behind him in the night sky.
The sound of leaves blowing in the current wind direction should not be like this.
Huo Jin raised his head, and his eyes fell accurately on the tree where the figure had just landed.
It seems that he has to go back to report. There should be someone hiding in that place just now. Now that there is no more show to watch, he should go and report to his master.
Seeing that he remained calm, Huo Jin withdrew his gaze.
His profile appeared particularly three-dimensional and delicate in the moonlight, but there was also an undispellable dark cloud hidden between his brows.
After everything in the imperial kitchen was arranged, a faint white light appeared on the horizon.
In less than an hour, he needed to go to Qianyuan Gate to welcome Li Mingce and the three leaders.
"Wei San, let's go."
The other party should not attack again. Seeing this, Huo Jin did not hesitate and took Wei San back to the palace to wash and dress up.
Seeing the slight dark circles around Huo Jin's fair skin, Wei San lowered his head and fumbled out a bottle of pills from his arms.
"Master, take a Mingshen Pill."
The maidservant was tying Huo Jin's hair. Hearing this, he opened his eyes and looked at the white porcelain medicine bottle in Wei San's hand. He raised his lips and said in surprise while pouring out the pills, "Why do you carry this with you?"
Wei San has always been rough, and even if there were pills with such effects, he would not carry them with him.
Wei San rolled his eyes, scratched his head, and said, "Before leaving, the Crown Prince's Consort instructed me to bring this with me. She said the Master has a lot of official duties and often doesn't get to rest, so she asked me to bring this with me in case of emergency."
So it was Mo Yuan.
Huo Jin's gaze softened when he saw this.
He tilted his head back and swallowed the light green pill that smelled of ice flakes in one gulp.
The cool and refreshing taste spread in his mouth, and Huo Jin's mind, which had been a little sleepy, suddenly became extremely clear.
He put the magic medicine into his sleeve, raised his hand and asked the palace maid to put on the black robe with three-clawed golden dragon pattern, which was exclusive to the prince.
"Lift the sedan!"
Bai Jingshan said loudly, and Huo Jin got on the sedan chair and headed towards Qianyuan Gate.
The sky gradually brightened, and the dazzling white light was blocked outside the green gauze curtain.
Huo Jin could vaguely hear the clattering of horse hooves coming from afar.
It seems that Li Mingce has just arrived.
Huo Jin jumped off the sedan chair and looked straight at the huge team outside Qianyuan Gate.
Li Mingce rode a black divine horse with golden light all over its body and slowly stopped in front of Huo Jinjian.
The horse snorted, its eyes glancing downwards, revealing a sense of pride.
Li Mingce's eyes also moved downwards like the horse's. Against the sunlight, Huo Jin could not see his expression clearly.
"Greetings, King Zhenbei." Huo Jin flicked his sleeves and gently leaned towards him.
Li Mingce jumped off his horse, looked at Huo Jin, and nodded: "No need to be polite."
Seeing this, Huo Jin straightened up and looked Li Mingce in the eye.
Li Mingce and the emperor's mother are cousins, and they look very similar.
However, unlike the emperor, his expression was filled with murderous intent, and he looked even more burly and majestic than the emperor.
Li Mingce looked at Huo Jin for a long time before he reached out and patted his shoulder, as affectionately as if he were his elder.
"It's been a long time since we last met. Now you're a general, and you've even been crowned a prince. Not bad."
Although Li Mingce is an arrogant person, his tone still reveals his admiration for Huo Jinjian.
Huo Jin retreated slightly without leaving any trace and saluted: "Your Majesty, thank you for your praise. Everything is a gift from Your Majesty."
Hearing Huo Jinjian's answer, a hint of disdain flashed across Li Mingce's eyes, and then he curled up the corners of his mouth and laughed heartily.
"My Royal Brother relies on you. This time, I want you to be responsible for receiving me and the representatives of the ethnic leaders at the border. You must not let my Royal Brother down!"
"Yes." Seeing that his smile was still there, Huo Jin nodded with a smile.
Now that the three chief representatives had been mentioned, Huo Jin looked towards the three carriages of different styles behind.
From left to right, they sit respectively: Prince Xingming Gyatso of the Baza tribe, Prince Wanqi Ling of Laizhen, and Mingyueshan, the high priest of the matrilineal tribe.
In order to suppress these three ethnic groups, the late emperor fought with them for almost half his life. In the end, it was not that anyone won, but that the three ethnic groups could no longer afford to fight.
After discussion, they took the initiative to submit, the border was demarcated, the late emperor promised to provide them with reinforcements and protection, and they paid tribute regularly.
Originally, life was peaceful, but suddenly he came to the capital, and he was with the Prince of Zhenbei.
The future is like the eve of a storm. It may seem like a clear sky, but in fact the air is filled with the smell of impending storm.
Huo Jin turned around and looked at Wei San: "Take the leaders to rest and change clothes first, and then receive them in the Changsheng Palace later."
They said they were taking a rest and changing clothes, but in fact they were checking whether they had any hidden weapons or the like.
I have no objection to things that are commonly accepted.
Watching Wei San and the others walking away, Huo Jin heard Li Mingce's voice in his ears.
"See you, Huo Jin. I heard at the border that you've recovered. I'm so happy. I heard that your wife took care of you and that's how you recovered."
