Chapter 71: Court Meeting

The spring on the grassland seemed to come a little earlier. The tender grass buds squeezed out of the ground early, swaying with each other. From a distance, they looked full of green green. The blue sky and white clouds, and the newborn sunlight shone on the white city. The pointed dome was covered with a flowing halo, which led the entire royal city into a dream-like scroll.

There were crowds of people at the entrance of the city gate, and the fierce white-armored guards protected both sides of the road. Behind them were the densely packed merchants and local people. Everyone was looking forward to seeing the face of Princess Yuezhi as soon as possible. In the front of the city gate were lined with the ceremonial guards to welcome the princess. The leader was not someone else, but Su Yi, the important minister of the Yuezhi.

Su Yi is a typical grassland man, burly and strong. Although his hair is gray and Feng Shuang has also carved traces on his face, the uncontrollable arrogance in his eyes and the aura he has developed over the years can tell at a glance that this old wolf has not become weakened by the destruction of time. If anyone despises him, he will definitely pay the price of bleeding. What's even more rare is that Su Yi is both civil and military, and is a rare versatile talent. Grum has not yet ascended the throne, and Su Yi was his humerus at that time, and then he even made a decision.

The series of strategies helped Grum ascend to the throne. He was not behind in foreign wars, and he would win every battle, greatly enhancing the national strength of Yuezhi. It can be said that Su Yi made an indelible contribution to the Qiang tribe on the grassland. What is the only drawback is that such a generation of heroes, but even gave birth to three daughters, Grum has to adopt one of the princes. He was afraid that Su Yi would never grow old and had a son over 40 years old. Since then, he has obeyed his young son and spoiled, and there is no demeanor of the important ministers on the grassland.

As a prince, Jing Yi had to be the younger generation's courtesy in front of Su Yi. He took Jing Shu early and bowed to Su Yi respectfully.

"I've met Uncle Su."

After half of the ceremony, Su Yi was held back by Su Yi. There were smiles on the corners of her eyes and she kept saying, "I can't do it, prince, princess, this is the old minister. It's good to come back, it's good to come back." After looking at Jing Shu carefully, she saw that she looked rosy and didn't seem to have suffered any grievances, she said happily: "The princess doesn't know anything. I heard that you were kidnapped. Yan'er was furious on the spot and wanted to lead troops to save you. The old minister stopped him but couldn't stop him. In the end, the leader spoke and persuaded him. When the troops were in Yuzhong, Yan'er also went, but unfortunately he couldn't save you."

Jing Shu smiled and thanked: "I thank Uncle Su for this time. Uncle Su works hard for my Yuezhi. Everyone can see it. Uncle Su must drink a few more drinks in the evening party banquet."

Su Yi laughed to the sky and replied repeatedly: "Absolutely, sure! Please ask the prince and the princess to come to the city to rest. The old minister will still welcome the envoys of the Qin Dynasty here, so he will not send them off."

Jing Yi and Jing Shu gave a gift, turned back to the carriage, and Yuezhi's white-armored cavalry escorted Jing Shu's carriages into the royal city one after another. The Qin delegation behind him walked closer. Su Yi's face was not as kind as before, and stood in the road with a blank expression, saying aloud: "Yuezhi's priest Su Yi, welcome the envoys of the Qin Dynasty!"

Ying Guang wore a high crown, robe, and a tight belt around his waist. He walked out of the carriage seriously and said to Su Yi: "Ying Guang, the envoy of the Qin Dynasty, had seen Su Zai Si, but he didn't know..." Ying Guang suddenly changed his tone, looked at Su Yi with a burning look, and asked, "I just don't know why the Yuezhi head man came out to greet him?"

Su Yi beat him up, suddenly he looked old and replied slowly: "I was unfortunately here. Yesterday, the Qiang prince Kunba, the eldest prince of the Qiang tribe, visited our country with the sincerity of Noah's head. Now he is having a banquet with the headman. Therefore, it is not convenient for the headman to come out to greet him. He specially arranged for the old man to entertain the Qin envoy, and hoped that the Qin envoy would be forgiven."

Huang Yun suddenly said in a sinister way behind, "What do you mean is that I, Daqin, are not as important as the Qiang people?"

Su Yi's eyes flashed, and he saw a white-faced old man behind Ying Guang's face suddenly appearing behind him. His eyes were staring at him like a snake. Su Yi's heart tightened. He knew that a master was coming from the opposite side. While he was secretly guarding himself, he replied with a smile: "Our grassland nation is the most hospitable. Everyone comes to distinguish between honor and inferiority and only discusses order. If your country's mission arrives first, our heads will also be entertained with kindness."

Ying Guang continued with a smile: "Since that's the case, it's better to choose a day than to meet the day. I, Ying Guang, is a rough man and there is no need to pay much attention to it. It's just that the banquet is in the court, so we will participate together, saving extra money."

Su Yi pretended to be hesitant and said, "I'm afraid I'm disrespectful to your country."

Ying Guang waved his hand, looked indifferent, and said, "Doing big things is not limited to trivial matters. I also want to see the style of the Qiang prince."

Su Yi replied readily: "Since that's the case, Su Yi's refusal is to be pretentious, please give me a message."

Ying Guang was not polite, and walked in front with a swagger and led the Qin delegation into the Yuezhi Royal City.

Wang Ting couldn't bring too many people in the court, so he arranged everyone in the inn. Ying Guang brought Mo Yin, who had changed into women's clothing, called Mengtian and Huang Yun, and followed Su Yi to the court. At first, he didn't want to bring the old eunuch Huang Yun, but he was afraid that he would have something to do in secret. Since Mo Yin was restricted, he would just take him with him to rest assured.

After crossing the majestic gate, Ying Guang found that the Yuezhi royal court was far less grand than the Qin Palace. After passing through the short corridor, you could hear the drums and music in the hall from afar. I think Grum and Kunba should be watching the singing and dancing, drinking and drinking.

After singing and dancing, Ying Guang followed the eunuch into the hall and saw Grum sitting at the head of the hall looking at him meaningfully. When he fought in Yuzhong, Ying Guang met Grum and so he recognized him.

Ying Guang smiled and didn't look like an envoy at all. He greeted him carelessly: "Oh, isn't this Grumman? It's been a while since Yuzhong left. I didn't expect to see you again today. I'm so happy, hahahaha."

Grum was unmoved to see Ying Guang's performance. Kunba, the Qiang prince next to him, looked unhappy and was very dissatisfied with Ying Guang's indifference. He couldn't help but snorted heavily.

Ying Guang then suddenly realized his mind, turned around and looked at Kunba sitting on the side, and suddenly said in surprise: "This guy is full of heaven, with a square pavilion, a tiger's back and a bear's waist. What's even more rare is the unique taste. I don't know that the two strong men behind you are your concubines..."

Before he finished speaking, Kunba slapped the table and said angrily: "Where did the madman come from? Since you dare to speak to this prince, do you think you have long life?"

The two strong men behind him had already walked into the scene when the table slapped, vaguely surrounding Ying Guang and others.
