As soon as Yang Shuang sat down, she saw Han Qinhu entering the house and reported, "Your Highness, the alliance delegation of the Tang Dynasty has entered the city. The Minister of the Honglu Temple will personally go out to greet him."

"Finally come." Yang Shuang asked, "Did you find out who is responsible for this alliance meeting?"

Han Qinhu nodded and said, "The envoy is named Chai Shao, the son of Chai Shen, the Duke of Julu County, and is appointed as the Shaoqing of Honglu Temple. The deputy envoy Hou Junji was appointed as the general of the chariot and cavalry of the King of Qin. He accompanied a thousand soldiers and horses, wearing black armor, and should be the Xuanjia Army of King Li Shimin."

Yang Shuang immediately corrected her posture and said with a smile: "It turns out they are these two corners, which are interesting and interesting."

Although I have never seen these two people, their names are still well-known.

The most famous thing Chai Shao has ever done is to marry Li Xiuning, and he was the descendant of the general. As for Hou Junji, this guy in his previous life was quite exaggerated when he was a young man. Later, he followed the King of Qin to fight in the south and north, and then he learned his skills. Of course, this guy learned military tactics from Li Jing.

However, in this life, the timeline was a bit disordered, and Li Jing did not go to the Tang Dynasty, but came to the Ming Palace. It seemed that the two had no master-disciple relationship.

King Li Shimin of Qin asked these two corners to discuss alliances. Do you want to form an alliance or not?

"It seems that the contest between Li Shimin and Li Jiancheng has affected this alliance meeting. Let's wait and see. My task is to hand over Shi Qianqiu's evidence of his crime to Shi Wansui."

Yang Shuang thought secretly and ordered: "Send someone to keep watching."

"Yes!" Han Qinhu's leader ordered to retreat.

.........

At this time, the Tang Dynasty division was following the officials of the Honglu Temple in the Great Sui Dynasty and heading to the delegation's house.

In the carriage in the center, the person sitting was Chai Shao.

He looks over 20 years old, has a well-proportioned figure, thick eyebrows and big eyes. Although he is not handsome, he is also a young man in spirit.

He lifted the curtain, looked at the environment on both sides of the street, and said to the young man riding a horse beside the carriage: "Lao Hou, the Kyoto of Sui State is just like this, it is not as rich as our Chang'an Prefecture."

On this dark and unmistakable war horse, there was a young general sitting. He was wearing bright light armor and looked majestic. But there was arrogance between his eyebrows, which was inherent arrogance.

Perhaps it is this arrogant spirit that can easily lead to a disaster, so he rebelled with Li Chengqian in his previous life.

Hearing Chai Shao’s question, Hou Junji snorted: “Although the Sui Kingdom was established several decades earlier than our Tang Dynasty, how could the monarchs of all generations be as brave as our Emperor of the Tang Dynasty? Along the way, the folk customs of the Sui Kingdom were seen in my eyes. I dare to assert that it would take less than twenty years for the Sui Kingdom to be conquered by our Tang Dynasty!”

"Haha, Lao Hou, I like to hear what you said, but you can whisper. If the people of the Sui Dynasty hear it, they will still point at their noses and scold you." Chai Shao quipped.

Hou Junji didn't care: "What's wrong with hearing it? We are guests of honor."

"You, be low-key. Why did you send you to Sui State? Don't you know what to do? You are the general of the chariot and cavalry of the Qin Prince's Mansion, but you were recommended as the deputy envoy by the prince. The prince has ulterior motives and wants to take advantage of your temper. If we do not reach an alliance with the Sui State, it will be the fault of His Highness the King of Qin. Your Majesty will definitely punish you at that time." Chai Shao said.

Speaking of Qin King Li Shimin, Hou Junji did not dare to be arrogant, so he said, "Don't worry, I know how to do it. I am just the deputy envoy, you can talk about the alliance. I will only listen and not talk about it. Even if I feel unhappy, I will endure it. Is it feasible?"

"Okay, I'll be relieved if you say this." Chai Shao nodded and said, "But the alliance between the two countries is indeed a good thing. The Eastern Turks are making too fierce now. Although the siege has stopped due to the snowstorm, the fate of the Western Turks has become a foregone conclusion. The Turks will surely be unified next year, and Dulan Khan will also establish a unified central royal court. By then, it will be very unfavorable to the Tang Dynasty and the Sui Kingdom."

Speaking of the Turks, Hou Junji's arrogance was ignited again and he said angrily: "Those uncivilized barbarians, one day, I will lead my troops to destroy them."

Chai Shao sighed, who wouldn't want to?

Soon, I arrived at the Mission House.

The envoys of the Tang Dynasty settled down, and then the Minister of the Honglu Temple Kong Xuan brought Chai Shao to the palace to face the holy people. Chai Shao submitted his letter of state and gave him gifts.

Yang Jian received Chai Shao and notified the main officials and the prince to attend the evening reception banquet.

As the prince, Yang Shuang naturally received the order, but he was a so-called soybean, so when it was time to arrange, he changed into a python robe and entered the palace.

When we arrived at Chongming Palace where the banquet was held, many people had already arrived in the hall. On the left were officials of the Great Sui Dynasty and on the right were the Great Tang Dynasty missions, which were clearly divided.

After Yang Shuang entered the hall, he saw Kong Xuan, the Minister of the Honglu Temple, bringing Chai Shao to know the officials of the Great Sui side. As Yang Shuang entered the hall, Kong Xuan naturally led Chai Shao over.

"Your Highness the King, this is the envoy responsible for this alliance!"

"Mr. Chai, this is His Highness, the King of Ming in our Great Sui Kingdom!"

Kong Xuan introduced to each other.

Obviously, Chai Shao was very interested in Yang Shuang. After all, he was the former Prince of the Sui Dynasty and had specially collected information before.

"Foreign minister Chai Shao, pay homage to His Highness the Ming Dynasty." Chai Shao greeted him.

Yang Shuang smiled and said, "No gift! This trip is a long way, thank you Lord Chai for your hard work!"

"This is what the foreign minister should do!" Chai Shao replied, but he couldn't help frowning because he always felt that the Ming Wang in front of him had a strange smile and his eyes were not right.

what the hell?

Is there anything dirty on my face?

No!

Could it be that the Ming King is mentally ill? Otherwise, how could he be deposed as the crown prince? How bad is this to be deposed?

Yang Shuang didn't know Chai Shao's psychological activities. If she knew it, she would shoot him one by one.

The reason why Yang Shuang has a strange face is that when she sees Chai Shao, she thinks of the famous Pingyang Princess Li Xiuning.

Qin Xianzhi said that the Tang Dynasty princess Li Xiuning was extremely beautiful and was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen, and was even more beautiful than his sister Qin Xianyu.

This is not a real evaluation in the eyes of a lover.

So, who is worthy of a strange woman like Li Xiuning?

I was Chai Shao in my previous life, so what about this world?

If still, then it is Chai Shao, who is not good-looking in front of him?

Yang Shuang suddenly yearned for the Tang Dynasty more, wanting to meet Li Xiuning, wanting to meet Li Shimin, and wanting to meet the civil servants and military generals who assisted Li Shimin.

Then, Kong Xuan took Chai Shao to the side and met the others.

Yang Shuang returned to her seat to rest. As soon as she sat down, she saw Yang Guang coming.

"Brother." Yang Guang bowed his hand and sat down.

Yang Shuang smiled and said, "What are you busy with recently?"

"I am fascinated by the winter hunting. A few days ago, I beat a few good white foxes and made a shawl. I will have someone to send them to my elder brother tomorrow." Yang Guang said casually.

Yang Shuang replied: "If my third brother is intent, then I will be disrespectful."

During this period, Yang Shuang kept her vigilance and did not forget to watch the wall, observe the performance of several younger brothers, and investigate their power.

Among the six younger brothers, King Yang Jun of Qin is the best. Now he is in charge of the emperor's order to investigate corrupt officials and begins to stir up the situation. The official connections he relies on are mainly officials related to the Wang family of Langya. The Wang family of Langya is a family with a large and complex network of relationships, and has connections in Kyoto and local areas.

King Yang Xiu of Yue and King Yang Liang of Han were relatively poor. One had a hot temper, the other was lustful and it was difficult to become a great man. The official connections they relied on were also the mother's mother's family.

The remaining three, Yang Yong, is gentle and kind. The princess is the daughter of Changlin Hou and one of the four princes, so most of the connections Yang Yong relies on are in the military.

Yang Chao is clever and smart, and behind him is the Confucian family, the Kong family, so there is no need to mention his connections.

The two are competitive with the position of the prince.

Compared with the advantages of the two, Yang Guang seems mediocre.

In the eyes of outsiders, Yang Guang is an optional person. He can't tell his strengths, but he can't tell his weaknesses, but he can't tell him good things, and he can't find him bad things. Although he is a prince, he feels very ordinary and very ordinary.

But Yang Shuang knew that this was Yang Guang's cleverness, because he hid it too deeply.

He is both literary and martial, good at forbearance, and has a deep sense of cleverness. He knows that only those who laugh at the end are the winners, so he deliberately puts on a very ordinary attitude.

Moreover, his hidden ability made Yang Shuang admire him, because during the period when Yang Shuang was investigated, he did not find his power.

The Princess of Jin came from a family. Although his father was Duke Yuan, he had a title and had no prominent official positions in the court. Moreover, Duke Yuan was weak and sickly, and could only have one daughter and had no connections.

Perhaps Yang Guang married the daughter of Duke Yuan because he regarded Duke Yuan's low-keyness, which was in line with his personality.

There may be only a little bit of icebergs exposed to the sea, but it is likely that they are a behemoth underwater.

Therefore, Yang Shuang must always be alert to Yang Guang.

The two chatted about their experiences and stories, and the topic naturally involved the alliance between the two countries.

"Brother, what do you think of the alliance this time?" Yang Guang asked casually.

Yang Shuang replied: "It is beneficial to both countries and will naturally succeed."

Yang Guang said, "Brother, look at the guy with a arrogant look, it is Hou Junji. This person is the general of the chariot and cavalry of the Qin Palace. He and Chai Shao are both members of the Qin King Li Shimin. This alliance is beneficial to both countries. If it is successful, Li Shimin's reputation will be further improved. In this case, why did Li Jiancheng, the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty, ask these two people to come? Isn't this giving the credit to others? So my brother can't figure it out."

Yang Shuang pretended to be in a daze and said, "Yes, the third brother is right. How could Li Jiancheng, the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty, give up his merits? I understand, Li Jiancheng must have set a trap! It seems that there are variables in the alliance between the two countries."

"I hope that the major events of the two countries' alliance will not be affected by conspiracies and traps." Yang Guang sighed.

When Yang Shuang heard his feelings, she immediately followed the trend and said: "We are in harmony with the Sui Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty. No matter what conspiracy Li Jiancheng is, we must promote an alliance. As princes, we must also actively promote this matter."

"Brother said it is reasonable!" Yang Guang agreed.

At this moment, Yang Shuang understood the purpose of Yang Guang coming to communicate with him.
