Chapter 638: Peace Talks
Since yesterday's negotiations lasted less than a quarter of an hour, the negotiating venue was seriously damaged, so we will continue to talk today.
And today, unfortunately, there is an early court.
Xu Qing hated the morning court very much, especially in winter.
The most annoying thing is that the Emperor Chu made himself have to go to the court today, and if he didn't go to the court, he would be disobeying the order.
What are you fussing about in the winter?
Can't the emperor stop the morning court for two days?
In this weather, it is the most comfortable thing to hug your wife and sleep until the sun basks in your buttocks.
He hugs his wife, the emperor hugs his concubine, why can't he get along with him?
But now that the lady's belly is getting bigger and bigger, no matter how loving the couple are, they should sleep in separate rooms, so Xu Qing will be tired of sleeping with the lady during the day, so she can't sleep with her in the lady's room at night.
He actually is not afraid that he will lose control, but that Su Qian will not be able to control it.
Su Qian not only likes to hug her husband tightly when she sleeps, but also likes to put a long leg on her husband's body, many times...
If Su Qian was not pregnant, it would be easy, but now that Su Qian's belly is getting bigger and bigger, her sleeping method will easily squeeze the little guy.
Not only was Xu Qing unable to sleep with her, but she had to drag Xuan'er away together. Who knows what she would do when sleeping with Xuan'er?
After eating early, Xu Qing went to court.
Now he has deeply realized that the distance between home and company is too much torment. After the snow melts into water, it is frozen on the bottom edge and turns into ice. It is not safe to ride a carriage.
In my previous life I hated squeezing the subway, but in this life I can't squeeze if I want to...
Is this the legendary saying that only when you lose something can you know how to cherish it?
Xu Qing seems to have heard the contempt from the subway: In the previous life, you ignored me, but in this life, I will make you unable to climb high!
Don't say that you can't afford to climb high, but you can't even see a shadow.
Today's early court was as boring as usual. After the few senior elders were given their seats by the emperor, he began his long opening speech.
It was as good as the secretary's meeting when Xu Qing was in school in his previous life.
If you talk about everything, you will miss the point, and if you don't talk about the point, you will have to delay...
Those who participated in the early court neither dared to eat or drink too much, for fear that the emperor would drag on for too long and lose his bearing in front of the emperor.
This is the experience summed up by the ancestors.
A person like Xiao Ruxue is definitely not suitable for going to court, she has a temperament that can't rest at all, let alone standing in the court hall for half an hour, even for a quarter of an hour, she will feel uncomfortable all over.
Of course, all those who participated in the morning court were ruthless people, let alone standing for half an hour, even standing and squinting for a while would be fine.
Chu Huang has the eloquence of a math teacher and the patience of Tang Seng. In order to concentrate and not fall asleep, he has to rely on Gold Finger to replay in his mind the two months when he was dominated by his wife. He didn't have the ability for these courtiers to fall asleep standing up. If they fell asleep, they would probably fall directly to the ground.
Although he still has hundreds of gs in his mind besides his wife, compared to Su Qian's cold and beautiful face, the teachers in his previous life are simply weak...
Su Qian's appearance has made up for the technology gap with them.
Xu Qing admitted that he just hugged Su Qian's body, and he just likes to be beautiful.
This is not called lowliness, this is called honesty.
Just when Xu Qing was about to make a second attempt, Emperor Chu finally finished his news broadcast. He looked at Xu Qing and asked, "I heard that the peace talks were extremely intense yesterday. Has there been any progress? This is about brothers between our two states." Friendship, but can't be sloppy."
After Xu Qing was interrupted by this sudden voice, he reluctantly came back to his senses, stepped out from among the courtiers, and immediately bowed and said: "Reporting to Your Majesty, there was a frank exchange between the peace talks missions of the two countries yesterday , fully exchanged views and enhanced mutual understanding, the talks were beneficial..."
Zhou Guozheng, among the officials, could not help but twitch his mouth when he heard this...
When Emperor Chu heard this, he nodded and said, "As long as it is beneficial."
Speaking of this, Emperor Chu looked at Xu Qing's still bowed body and said, "Stay flat, don't you usually bother with these etiquettes the most? Why are you so polite today?"
When Xu Qing heard this, a little embarrassment appeared on his face, and he said bravely: "I have deeply realized the difference between monarchs and ministers, so I should be considerate of etiquette and not exceed the rules."
I don't believe the look on Chu Huang's face when he heard this, Xu Qing's mouth is deceiving!
But the Emperor of Chu didn't want to delve into it, and just said: "Today's talk, I hope that Aiqing will do her best, be generous in her words, do her best, and don't lose the spirit of my great country in the Central Plains."
Xu Qing said: "I obey the order..."
The Emperor Chu nodded and continued to summon other courtiers to discuss matters. Xu Qing was finally able to retreat to the ranks of generals and heaved a sigh of relief. It might be embarrassing.
It's not that he was bragging, don't look at the thick winter clothes and the layered court clothes, just this clothes want to conceal his Xu Qing's strength, after all, it is still a little bit...
...
Honglu Temple
At this time, tables, tea cups and seating positions were placed again in Honglu Temple, just waiting for the peace talks to begin.
It was not until half an hour later that the envoys from Zhou and Chu arrived late.
No way, His Majesty is really chatty.
Xu Qing was still sitting on the deputy envoy's seat, and Xiao Ruxue was sitting next to Xu Qing.
As soon as Zhou Guo's upright deputy envoy was about to speak, the little girl first looked at the deputy envoy, then at the table, and finally raised her hand, and then the frankness of the deputy envoy turned into tact.
As the official envoy of the Chu State, the Secretary of the Household Department held the document for a few times to confirm that it was correct, and then handed it over to the State of Zhou, saying: "At this time, the conditions of our State of Chu, you should have a look first."
Zhou Guozheng made Yang Mingzhi look ugly when he looked at this document. After a while, he raised his head and said, "It's just that my Zhou Guo soldiers who were captured by your country want these silver taels. Isn't this a bit of a lion's mouth?"
Xu Qing said: "Look where there are still captives in this winter. They are all fresh captives. Not long after they were captured, the price of green leafy vegetables in the winter hoard has doubled, let alone live captives."
Deputy envoy Zhou Guo heard that Xu Qing compared their Zhou Guo soldiers to sell them as green leafy vegetables, and immediately became angry again, but when he was about to explode, he was stared back by the little girl next to Xu Qing, and then the little girl's hand Just put it on the desktop.
Seeing this scene, Deputy Envoy Zhou couldn't help shrinking his neck back.
At this moment Xu Qing felt that it was the right choice to bring the little girl to this peace talk, and directly abolished a general on the opposite side.
