Chapter 838: Deputy Envoy Candidates
He didn't dare to stay for a while longer, because Princess Yongle looked at him very wrongly.
As for His Majesty, when it is not possible to make an order, you have to rush to get up and eat when you have to make an order.
The Marquis of Anding County is fine, but Princess Yongle likes to come to other people's houses for a meal.
Look at Princess Yongle's eyes when Yaxing was disturbed and almost wanted to eat people.
I can't afford to be provoked, so I slipped away.
Xiao Ruxue blinked, looked at Xu Qing and said, "Xu Qing, Uncle Huang asked you to go on an envoy to Zhou Guo."
Xu Qing nodded and said, "That's right. Now that Chu State has won successive victories, most of the people in the court are the main fighters. We need a person who is not a main fighter and is good at negotiating to go to Zhou State to resolve territorial disputes."
Xiao Ruxue blinked her eyes and said, "Then sister Mingyue is also in Zhou Guo, will you see her then?"
Xu Qing thought for a while and said: "Not necessarily, the princess Mingyue is not favored and is a concubine. Although she is an adult, she is not qualified to open a mansion. She should still live in the deep palace, and Mingyue has no way to leave the palace unless the emperor allows her to leave the palace." of."
Xiao Ruxue immediately lowered her head when she heard Xu Qing's words: "That's it...then Sister Mingyue is so pitiful, she shouldn't have let Sister Mingyue go back in the first place."
Xu Qing shook his head and said: "Your sister Su tried to keep Mingyue, but Mingyue refused."
Li Mingyue was born of a palace lady, so it is impossible for her to enjoy the treatment of a normal princess.
In the past, Li Mingyue was just a victim of the political game between Zhou State and Chu State. Fortunately, she met Su Qian, Xiao Ruxue and Long Binger and was able to escape. Now she lives in the deep palace again, and she doesn't know what happened.
Now that winter is coming, it is really not a good time to go on an envoy at this time.
But it is a pity that the territorial dispute will not be eased because of the season.
Xiao Ruxue thought for a while, looked at Xu Qing and said, "Why, why don't I go to Zhou Guo with you."
Xu Qing shook his head and said, "No."
Xiao Ruxue pursed her lips unwillingly and said, "Why?"
Xu Qing said: "Stay at home and help take care of Ning'er, the lady is alone, it's very difficult..."
This time, the Xian Wang will not go as an envoy. Su Qian has no way to move to Xian Wang’s mansion to take care of Xian Wang’s concubine. Now that Xiao Ning’er can crawl, Su Qian will not be at all except when the child wants to eat. She looked at Ning'er steadily.
And Ning'er also inherited Su Qian's restlessness, often crawling around on the bed, Xu Qing was very worried that Xuan'er would not be able to take care of her alone.
Of course, the bigger problem is that Xu Qing felt that the Xian Wang would not agree to Xiao Ruxue following him. The last time Xiao Ruxue followed him to Liuzhou, the Xian Wang's face drooped for a long time when he found out about it. If he dared to take Xiao Ruxue to the state of Zhou, King Xian would probably dare to take soldiers to pursue him.
Which old father is willing to let such a juicy little cabbage travel abroad with other men?
That being the case, Xu Qing might as well find an excuse to keep Xiao Ruxue here, so that when the time comes, Xiao Ruxue will secretly follow him and chase after him.
After not seeing Li Mingyue for such a long time, Xu Qing really wanted to know how she was doing.
Li Mingyue and Su Qian are both children who lost their mothers since they were young. It can be said that they have always had a good relationship with each other.
It would be great if I could meet Li Mingyue when I go out this time.
By the way, I can also ask how Li Xun is preparing for the rebellion, and will he be emperor in a few years?
When you become the emperor, don't forget him, the major shareholder who provides funds!
After Xiao Ruxue finished her meal, she went to play with Xuan'er. When Xu Qing walked into the bedroom, the little guy was slowly crawling on the bed.
Today's Ning'er can't take it easy as soon as she can crawl, and it is estimated that she will not be at her current speed in a while.
Now that the official envoy has been settled, the deputy envoy and the entourage have not yet been finalized, and it may take a few days before they leave. When Xu Qing told Su Qian about the envoy, Su Qian just nodded and didn't say anything. I just asked him to pay more attention to Li Mingyue when he arrived in Zhouguo, and told him very cryptically that he could catch sheep these nights.
This time Xu Qing was going to the battlefield differently than last time, Xu Qing's mission this time was much safer than the last time she went to the grassland to fight, and she was more at ease.
It was only two months before Xu Qing came back this time, and the husband and wife were going to separate again.
But this is also something that can't be helped. Except for the Xianwang family, there is no one in the Chu Kingdom who is free to resist the edict.
But Su Qian didn't say anything about it, although she also wanted to be intimate with Xu every day, but if it's a big deal, how can she stay in the three-acre land of Andinghou Mansion all the time.
Since Su Qian can't help this husband now, she should give him as much freedom as possible and not embarrass him.
She took good care of Ning'er at home... Ahem, she just watched how Xuan'er took care of Ning'er at home, and by the way, improved her own martial arts.
Xianwang Mansion
Xian Wang had just finished dealing with the affairs of the Ministry of War, when he came out of the study, he saw Xiao Ye who had finished teasing Xin'er and Xi'er was going to accompany Zheng Wan'er for a walk.
It should be said that this kid has been doing nothing since he came back from the battlefield, either discussing his son's affairs with Zheng Wan'er, or wandering around with Xin'er and Xi'er in his arms.
Although he is a virtuous king, he still deals with the affairs of the Ministry of War every day, doesn't he?
This kid has nothing to do every day!
Why can he be so free every day?
Thinking of this, King Xian asked someone to call Xiao Ye over.
When Xiao Ye came to the study, he looked at the King Xian and asked, "Why did King Father bring the child here?"
King Xian coughed and said, "There is some friction between the state of Zhou and our state of Chu on the issue of grassland territory."
After hearing this, Xiao Ye rubbed his shoulders and said excitedly, "Another battle?"
The Xian King waved his hand and said, "There is no need to fight this time, your uncle has already decided to send a mission to Zhou to discuss the territorial issue with Zhou."
Xiao Ye heard what King Xian said, and said, "Then why did King Father let the child come over?"
The virtuous king said: "Although the candidate for the chief envoy has been decided, the deputy envoy has not been confirmed yet. Would you like to go?"
Xiao Ye immediately shook his head and said, "I don't want to."
He still wants to make a son at home, so go out at this time?
Just kidding?
The virtuous king said: "Look at you, then look at Xu Qing, you said you all have wives and sons, why are you so tired?"
Xiao Ye was startled: "This can also involve Brother Xu?"
The virtuous king said: "Of course, because the envoy this time is Xu Qing, he can let go of his small family in righteousness and awe-inspiring, and run away from his homeland for the great country. Do you think you are ashamed to stay at home all day with nothing to do and just know how to make a son?"
