Chapter 890: Really Not Enthusiastic
"I am Yuan Lei, sent by the Emperor to serve as an envoy to Zhao State."
"Is Lord Yuan a military general?" Xiao Lanyuan asked directly.
"Hahaha," Yuan Gang laughed, "I knew you would be surprised when you saw me. Yes, I am a military officer. It's too far from Min State to Zhao State's capital. It's a long journey with wind, frost, rain and snow. I'm afraid that civil officials are not strong enough, so I can only send military officers."
I see?
"However, I am a man of both civil and military abilities, not just a rough man."
Qing Yi looked at Yuan Gang with some curiosity. This envoy was very confident and he praised himself like this.
"Father."
The young man next to Yuan Gang spoke.
They have been ignoring him.
Yuan Gang then said, "By the way, let me introduce myself. This is my son, Yuan Yi! He came here for you!"
"Come for this king?"
Only then did Xiao Lanyuan look at Yuan Yi.
He is not as tall as his father and his figure is much thinner, but he has heroic eyes and a handsome appearance.
"Yes, I have heard of Prince Jun's name a long time ago, and I really want to come and see him with my own eyes. I pestered my father for a long time, and this time I finally came to Zhaoguo as I wished. Prince Jun, why are you wearing a mask? This is not the way to entertain guests, right?"
Qing Yixin mentioned it.
This Yuan Yi is really direct.
She was going to attack the prince as soon as she opened her mouth? She also wanted him to take off his mask on the spot?
However, from this point of view, it is hard to tell whether Yuan Yi has any ill intentions. It can also be said that he is really curious about the appearance of the prince. After all, the prince is known as the most beautiful man in the world.
But for a man to come all the way here just for the prince's appearance, doesn't that seem a bit presumptuous?
Xiao Lanyuan just glanced at Yuan Yi and then looked away.
"I am only here to greet the envoy, not to entertain him. Once you enter the city, the Ministry of Rites will entertain you."
This is really not very enthusiastic!
Yuan Yi was stunned for a moment.
"Does Prince Jun speak so directly?"
Shouldn't we be more welcoming to these distinguished guests who have come from thousands of miles away?
Xiao Lanyuan chuckled.
"Wasn't it Master Yuan who was the first to speak directly? I thought Master Yuan was just like that, so I gave in to you."
Yuan Yi paused.
"I heard that Prince Jun doesn't give face to others. It seems to be true."
"Has my fame spread to the capital of Min Kingdom? It seems that rumors may not be misrepresented. You are right."
"In that case, how does Prince Jun plan to welcome us when he comes out of the city?" Is this how he's going to welcome them?
"I will lead the way in my carriage. How about that? Have you two rested well? If so, let's set off."
hiss--
Xiao Lanyuan had already walked towards his carriage.
"This Prince Jun is not easy to get along with!" Yuan Gang frowned.
The Min Kingdom is actually a bit arrogant wherever they go. They originally thought that the Zhao Kingdom would be very enthusiastic and proactive towards them, but who expected this kind of reaction.
"Is Zhao Kingdom much stronger than Dahe? So they didn't lose their momentum?" Yuan Yi asked in a low voice.
"Observe the city after you enter it. Also, don't just focus on Prince Jun. Don't forget what we promised him." Yuan Gang said in a deep voice.
"Father, I understand."
They didn't know that Xiao Lanyuan heard their conversation.
At this distance, other people would definitely not be able to hear it, but after all the poison in Xiao Lanyuan's body was cleared, and he took so many good medicines specially made for him by Fu Zhaoning, his internal strength broke through several times. Now his internal strength is extremely strong, so he can still hear it.
He got into the carriage without stopping.
Qing Yi bowed to Yuan Gang and his son and made a "please" gesture, "Your Excellency the Envoy, Master Yuan, please come in."
On the other side, Le Jiagui was expecting Xiao Lanyuan to offend the envoy and for the two sides to come into direct conflict.
He looked over there just now, and although he didn't hear what they said, it was obvious that Prince Jun's attitude was not very enthusiastic.
He came out of the city to greet me, just said a few words and then turned around and got on the carriage?
But unexpectedly, the envoys had no objection and really got back on the carriage. The team followed Prince Jun's carriage to the capital.
"Come on, let's follow."
The imperial tea and snacks he brought, as well as the carefully selected beauties, have not been given away.
Shouldn't we find another opportunity?
The envoys from the State of Min entered the capital in a grand procession.
It was Prince Jun who went out to greet him.
The people were also very curious about the Min Kingdom, so the streets were crowded with people, all wanting to see what the Min people looked like.
Before, because of Prince Xiao’s illness, everyone was afraid of being infected, and the atmosphere in the capital was depressing for a while. Also, after hearing about the disaster victims in Zhecheng, they were all worried that the victims would flood into the capital, and life would then become chaotic.
Now it seems that these worries have disappeared. Finally there is something exciting and lively, so of course everyone is rushing out.
The shops were all open and vendors were setting up stalls, making the main street bustling with activity.
The officials had already pushed the crowd to the sides, leaving a path for the envoys to pass through.
"Min's carriage is so big and magnificent!"
"They are all very tall!"
"The horses are all big and strong. Oh my, if this horse kicks me, it will kick me far away, right?"
The people were discussing enthusiastically, and those in the back were standing on tiptoe, craning their necks to look.
"Where is the envoy? In the carriage? Why isn't he riding a horse for us to see?"
"Their coach doors were shut tight—"
"The door is open!"
In the team, two carriages opened their doors.
The left and right windows of the car in front were also opened.
Yuan Gang crawled out from inside, stood on it, and waved and nodded to the people.
"Ah! Is this the envoy? He looks so mighty!"
The people all cried out in surprise.
This envoy is different from their civil servants.
For example, those officials in the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Personnel all have the obvious demeanor of civil servants.
"Could it be that the Min Kingdom came to send silver because it knew that many places in our Zhao Kingdom had suffered from disasters?" Some people also had wild ideas.
In the carriage with its door opened at the back, a veiled girl was looking at the situation outside, her eyes filled with excitement.
She finally arrived in Zhaoguo!
Since she has come to Zhaoguo with so much trouble, she must stay, at all costs!
The envoys entered the palace.
The emperor has received the news and is waiting in the hall.
Concubine Le, who was wearing the imperial concubine's dress, was also sitting beside them.
She didn’t know whether Le Jiagui succeeded or not, but she was a little looking forward to it.
"The envoy from the Min Kingdom has arrived!"
"Here it comes!" The emperor immediately sat up straight.
He also wanted to know what benefits Zhaoguo could get from Minguo sending people here!
