Chapter 2414 I came to see my own achievements
Two days later, the delegation to the Western Regions also set off.
However, this time, they were not asked to gather outside the city and leave before dawn. Instead, they gathered in front of the main hall with great fanfare, and the emperor personally saw them off.
When ordinary people heard about this, they even ran out of their homes and stood on both sides of the street to watch this grand spectacle.
After all, since Emperor Gao ascended the throne and closed the country's borders, many people of Yan State have been unable to openly step out of Yan State and go to a new world to see new scenery.
But that's often the case in the world.
No matter how strict the imperial court's orders are, there is no way to control people's hearts. If people's desire to go out and take a look is not right, there will be people who will continue to take the step of breaking new ground. However, most of them can only do it in private, and the danger will increase exponentially.
Now, His Majesty the Emperor has openly sent a special envoy group to the Western Regions. This is great news for private businessmen and tourists.
Therefore, before daybreak, the streets of the capital were already crowded with people.
Zhu Feng stood in the main hall, looking at the team below.
The team sent this time consisted of hundreds of people, and with the civilian caravans joining along the way, the team had a total of thousands of people.
They carried large quantities of silk, brocade, ceramics and tea.
If this trip goes smoothly, it will bring a lot of wealth to Yan Country in the future and open up a new world.
Zhu Feng slowly walked down from the hall and came to the front of the team, in front of the two guides.
It was Gu Yiyou and Tong Sinian.
Zhu Feng looked at the two of them, then said in a deep voice, "There's no need for me to say anything more. I just hope you have a safe journey. No matter where you go or who you meet, remember not to lose the prestige of the Great Yan Dynasty."
The two of them immediately bowed their heads and said, "Understood."
Zhu Feng nodded: "Then, let's set off early."
After the two men knelt down and kowtowed, they stood up, mounted their horses, and left the imperial city with this large team.
Nan Yan also stood in the hall.
As a palace concubine, she could not go down to talk to them, but her eyes were always fixed on the two brothers, especially Tong Sinian. His severed hand seemed more flexible than before. When he grabbed the reins and jumped onto the horse, it did not feel like it was a mecha hand at all.
This also made her feel more at ease.
Thinking of this, she lowered her head and glanced at the crowd of people who were seeing the Grand Prince off. Sure enough, she saw the familiar figure of Tang Zhaoyun, and his eyes were fixed on Tong Sinian's hand.
That's his credit.
However, unexpectedly, Nan Yan saw a somewhat familiar figure beside him. He turned around and saw her, and immediately came over from a small path beside him with a smile.
Nan Yan was also on her way to the bedroom and met him halfway.
"Your Majesty the Concubine!"
Suddenly seeing her jump in front of him, Nan Yan also smiled: "Xiaoxiao."
Having interacted with each other so many times and having had a deep conversation before, she and Xu Xiaoxiao were quite familiar with each other and just called her by her name. Xu Xiaoxiao didn't care at all and first saluted her with a smile and then ran to her side.
"Did the Queen see me just now?"
Nan Yan smiled and said, "Of course I saw you."
After not seeing her for a while, she hasn't changed much. She is still playful and cute, exuding a sense of spirituality.
Nan Yan asked, "Are you here to see the special envoys off as well?"
Xu Xiaoxiao said, "I guess so."
"Is that so?"
These two words made Nan Yan a little confused: "Could it be that you have other things to do?"
Xu Xiaoxiao smiled and said, "I came here to see my own achievements."
"Results?"
Nan Yan was a little puzzled. As she walked forward, she turned around and looked at her: "What results?"
Xu Xiaoxiao followed her towards her bedroom and said, "It's Master Tong's hand. Has your Majesty noticed that his mecha hand is more flexible than before?"
"Indeed, could it be——"
Xu Xiaoxiao pointed at her nose and said, "It's all my credit."
"you?"
Nan Yan was even more confused: "How could it be?"
Xu Xiaoxiao said with a smile: "Ever since I saw Master Tong's mecha hand in the palace that day, I've been particularly fond of it. Coincidentally, I've been going to play with Qi Qing quite often these days. When I arrived at Gu's residence, I happened to meet Tang Zhaoyun. To ensure that Master Tong's hand doesn't malfunction on the road, he's been working on improving the mecha hand recently. So I started learning from him."
"oh?"
This surprised Nan Yan a little: "You learned it?"
Xu Xiaoxiao said with a grin, "Tang Zhaoyun said that I am a rare genius."
“…”
"There were so many small parts that it would take him several days to put them together, but I finished them in just one or two hours. So this time, I was a big help in making Master Tong's new mecha arm."
“…”
"He's leaving today, so of course I have to come and see him."
Seeing her proud look, Nan Yan couldn't help laughing and was really happy for her.
Speaking of which, Nan Yan didn't particularly enjoy living a life of luxury, doing nothing but enjoying the comforts her man provided her. That would be no different from a parasite. In life, besides just living, one must find something to do. Unfortunately, too many women don't have this opportunity, and can only live a life of daily necessities.
It's rare that Xu Xiaoxiao has such talent.
What is even more rare is her willingness to work hard for something.
So he smiled and said, "No wonder I saw that Tong Sinian's hands were so much more flexible today than before. It turns out it's all thanks to you. Not bad, not bad."
Xu Xiaoxiao's eyes curved up with laughter.
But then he remembered something and said hurriedly: "Of course, it's not my own credit. I was helping."
“…”
"The most tired one is still Tang Zhaoyun."
Nan Yan smiled and said, "Of course I understand."
As she spoke, she turned and instructed Ruoshui, "Remember to deliver the reward I prepared earlier to Young Master Tang today."
Ruoshui said: "Yes."
Nan Yan continued walking forward with Xu Xiaoxiao, smiling as she walked, "By the way, your father went to Jinling with the troops heading south a few days ago. Didn't you go?"
Xu Xiaoxiao shook her head and said, "I'm busy here, so I don't have time to go somewhere so far."
"Your father didn't tell you either?"
"My father never controlled me. He let me do what I liked."
Nan Yan smiled. It was no wonder that with a father who could let go, there was a daughter like Xu Xiaoxiao who was quirky, well-behaved and lovely.
So he said, "If you have nothing to do today, come with me."
Xu Xiaoxiao said, "I also know about Sister Xinping's situation, so I want to go see her."
Nan Yan nodded: "Let's go."
They walked forward and just as they reached a red wall, they heard two little palace maids whispering something at the foot of the wall.
