After the prince enters the play

Chapter 151 Chapter 152: The Imperial Decree Arrives
Su Xinyi lowered her eyes and waited until a servant ran over and said to her, "Miss Su Six, please come with your servant."

Su Xinyi nodded, raised his heels, and walked all the way to the front of the hall. The servant stretched out his hand and opened the door of the hall, then bent down and said, "Please, Miss Six."

Su Xinyi raised her foot and stepped across the threshold. Unlike the outside of the hall where the sun was shining freely, the inside of the hall was dimly lit and had a shady atmosphere. There were palace servants standing on both sides. She walked forward step by step, then knelt down to salute, "Ms. Su Xinyi Greet Your Majesty."

The hall was quiet, and the servants on both sides retreated like flowing water. Su Xinyi heard the sound of the hall door opening and closing, and the coolness of the floor hit her heart through her knees. She still maintained her kneeling posture until she heard When His Majesty said, "Stay flat."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Su Xinyi slowly got up, and stood in the hall with his head slightly bowed.

"When I heard that Su Chun had a daughter, I was very happy for him. I didn't expect that you are not only his daughter, but also have a very similar temperament."

Su Xinyi was stunned for a moment, she didn't expect the emperor's tone to be so gentle, in her impression the emperor has always been a serious and cold person, and in her previous life, she was very nervous and stressed when playing the prelude to his majesty.

"Your Majesty's praise, a courtier would never dare to accept it." Su Xinyi said respectfully.

"How did you think about the caravan?"

Su Xinyi listened to His Majesty's topic suddenly turning to the caravan, his heart tightened, and he calmed down, and then replied: "Returning to Your Majesty, how can I think of such a way all of a sudden? The mother gave the court daughter some of the father's relics, including the father's handwriting, and the court daughter got inspiration from the father's handwriting."

"Oh? Really? Did you bring the codex?"

"Yes." Su Xin took out the letter from his sleeve pocket and offered it with both hands.

Immediately, someone came over to take it with both hands, and quickly sent it to the front of the imperial court.

The emperor looked down at the letter in his hand. The color of the letter was slightly yellow, which showed that it was indeed old, and the footer of the page was worn out, which must be the result of reading it many times.

He stretched out his hand to open the letter, and what he saw was a very familiar font, but Su Chun's handwriting on the letter was more wild. After flipping through it, the emperor found another font appeared on the letter, beautiful and transparent. He looked a little recklessly, and his handwriting was quite fresh, so he slightly raised his head to look at Su Xinyi standing in front of him.

The little girl in the palace straightened her shoulders, and she didn't seem to have the timid posture of ordinary daughters when they met Emperor Yan.

The emperor was in a daze for a while, and couldn't help thinking that Su Chun was the same way when he first met him. It seems that although Su Xinyi grew up in the countryside, he was as brave as King Rong said, and did not lose his father's prestige.

Su Xinyi was far less calm than his face, his palms were already sweating slightly, and the quiet hall could hear the slight sound of pages turning when His Majesty was flipping through the handbook.

I don't know how long it took before Su Xinyi heard His Majesty say again: "The formation of a caravan is a big or small thing. Do you know that once a Tatar finds a flaw, it will lead to war between the two countries?"

Su Xinyi didn't know whether His Majesty was trying to test her or test her. She thought about it, but still said with the true thoughts in her heart: "Returning to Your Majesty, it means that the ministers don't form caravans, and privately there are caravans going to the grasslands." All ministries. Besides, the bad habits of the Tatars have not changed from being greedy, and they will kowtow at the border every year, and the ministers privately think that whether there is a caravan or not, they will not be able to stop them from robbing us of the border city of Southern Qi."

"You have made great contributions to this big victory, and I didn't reward you, so do you have any complaints?"

The topic changed too quickly, Su Xinyi couldn't keep up, and after listening to it, he didn't dare to think too much, and immediately replied: "Returning to Your Majesty, the maid went to the border town in the name of a posthumous household, mainly because she wanted to see what my father used to do. The place where I went to fight. My daughter has never seen my father, but after I recognized my ancestors and returned to my clan, I always heard people mentioning my father’s glory in the past, and I couldn’t help but yearn for it, so I begged my grandfather repeatedly to let me go to the border town. Walk through The way my father walked and the places where my father fought, what is there for my daughter to be dissatisfied with? Besides, the concubine's meritorious service was purely accidental, and the later reinforcements and ambushes were the credit of General Zhu and His Royal Highness the Prince. I just sent a letter, so I absolutely dare not claim credit."

The emperor stared at Su Xinyi after hearing the words. The little girl's face was still a little childish, but the sharpness in her eyebrows was very similar to Su Chun.

Going to see where Su Chun walked, it seems that it is indeed something that Su Chun's daughter can do.

At that time, Su Chun knew that the Tatars were offending him, so he said to him: "Your Majesty, I would like to be your Majesty's pawn, fight for you on the battlefield, protect me in the Southern Qi Dynasty, and wait for me to take the head of the Tatar boy and give it to Your Majesty to drink."

Although Su Chun didn't know that he had a daughter in this world, the brave Su Xinyi was very similar to him.

"You really think so?" The emperor's eyes fell on Su Xinyi with a sense of scrutiny.

Su Xinyi really thought so, and His Majesty didn't feel guilty when he asked, and said, "Yes, I don't dare to claim credit, I just ask Your Majesty not to blame me for my daughter's reckless actions, it is already a blessing."

"Afraid that I will blame you, why do you still want to go?"

Su Xinyi pursed her lips, sweat dripped from her back, her mind turned very fast, and then she said: "I just regret that I didn't see my father with my own eyes, so I just want to see him pass by." The road he has seen, the scenery he has seen, and the enemies he has fought. I think, if my father is still there, he will not stop the courtier's daughter."

He looks like Su Chun, and he is also very courageous, and his sophistry skills are not inferior to his father's.

The emperor's expression slowly eased, and he handed the letter to the servant, who hurriedly bent down to take it, and returned it to Su Xinyi.

Su Xinyi took the letter and held it in the palm of his hand, his heart beating non-stop.

After a while, she didn't hear the emperor speak again, her legs were a little sore, and she heard His Majesty say: "Back down."

Su Xinyi hurriedly bowed and took her leave. When she left the hall, the cold wind blew, and then she woke up.

A little servant came to lead the way to send her out of the palace, and Su Xinyi went all the way out, still a little unclear what His Majesty meant by this, so he settled down and finished with a few words?
So what is his attitude towards his affairs in the border town?

Su Xinyi couldn't figure it out, but fortunately His Majesty didn't reprimand and get angry, so this is a good result, right?
His Majesty did not veto the caravan issue, is there still room for buffering?

After sending her outside the palace, the little servant went back.

Su Xinyi thanked the other party, turned around and continued to walk out. After walking a few steps, he saw King Rong leaning against the wall.

Seeing Su Xinyi coming out, King Rong walked over immediately, looked at her and said, "Why so slow."

"Why is Your Highness here?" Su Xinyi looked at him and asked in surprise, isn't he afraid that the empress will know?
"Brother asked me to wait for you here, and I will take you to see him when I see you." King Rong curled his lips and knew how to command him. He would definitely not take this job before it was over, but this time he also gave it to Su Xinyi. The eldest brother bowed his head, seeing how difficult it is for him.

Su Xinyi didn't want to continue to stand with him at the gate of the palace, eyeballing people coming and going, so he followed him and said as he walked, "Where are you going?"

"The tea house, the one on the street outside the palace gate." King Rong replied, "What did the emperor ask you? Are you all right?"

"It's nothing, His Majesty just asked a few words about the caravan."

"What did the emperor say?"

"Her Majesty said nothing."

King Rong's face was broken, and he sighed helplessly, "You said it's just a caravan, why is it so difficult?"

"How can it be so simple, if it doesn't work out, the two countries will go to war." Su Xinyi said.

"Then you still do this?"

"If I don't do it, I won't fight?"

"Okay. You are always reasonable, but I can't tell you what to do, right?" Rong Wang said with a dark face.

Su Xinyi smiled slightly, "I know His Highness cares about me, thank you, but His Majesty really didn't make things difficult for me, just asked a few words casually, Your Highness don't have to worry."

Seeing that Su Xinyi didn't seem to be fooling him, King Rong was happy and said, "I'm actually not particularly worried. Your father really valued your father. When Su Siye died in battle, your father knew the news. Later, I heard from my mother that my father was locked in the palace by himself and didn't come out for a long time. You are the daughter of Fourth Master Su, and you haven't done anything bad, so naturally your father will not make things difficult for you."

Su Xinyi looked sideways at King Rong, it was really hard to imagine that the current King Rong is so innocent, then how did he seem to be a different person in a short period of time in his previous life?
She didn't understand either.

Although His Majesty did not make things difficult for her, and even praised her father Xiao, she could feel that His Majesty did not like her.

This feeling is very subtle and indescribable, but it can be felt.

In this life, I was like my father, His Majesty, and I didn't seem to like her very much. Now that I thought about how useless I was in my previous life, and lost my father's face, how could Your Majesty look at her?
The king's heart is like the sea, she has a deep understanding now.

The teahouse is not far away, just on the street not far from Huangchenggen, it is convenient for a group of adults sitting in the yamen to come out and drink tea.

Obviously Rong Wang is a regular customer. Seeing his shop waiter, he immediately greeted him with a smile on his face. With flattery, he led them directly to the second floor, opened the door and said with a smile: "Your Highness, is it still the same?"

King Rong looked at Su Xinyi, "What do you want to eat?"

Su Xinyi said casually, "I'm not picky, just do whatever you want."

The waiter in the shop looked at Su Xinyi in surprise, thinking that Rong Wang's domineering temper would actually considerately ask the girl what she likes to eat, and the sun is coming out from the west?

King Rong glanced at Su Xinyi, thought for a while and said, "Just put up the signboard of your teahouse."

The waiter hurriedly responded and stepped back, Su Xinyi followed King Rong into the room and sat down.The decoration of this teahouse is elegant, with famous calligraphy and paintings hanging on the walls, a small table is placed against the wall, and a plum vase is placed on the small table, and the plum vases are filled with flowers in full bloom.

There is a Boshan stove on the other side of the small table, white smoke curls up, and a faint fragrance lingers in the room.

Soon a child brought tea, and the person behind him with a food box set up a table of various snacks, and retreated respectfully after finishing his work.

King Rong looked at Su Xinyi, "Hungry, eat something first, I'm afraid my brother won't be able to make it through now."

Su Xinyi didn't talk too much about asking about the prince's whereabouts, but saw that the desserts on the table were indeed very delicate, and one of them looked like a peach blossom, so she reached out and took a light bite. It tasted a bit like a yam cake, but It has a stronger aroma than yam cake and is quite delicious.

Seeing that Su Xinyi was eating deliciously, King Rong picked up one and ate it, and said while eating, "What is this peach cake? It is said to be made of peach blossoms."

"It does taste like peach blossoms." Su Xinyi stopped after eating one, picked up the tea and took a sip, "Did your Highness come back smoothly this time?"

King Rong: ...

Which pot is not open to mention which pot!
"Of course it went well, what's not going well?" Of course, King Rong didn't admit to being punished. Doesn't he want to lose face?
"That's good. I'm still worried that His Highness will be punished after running away from Beijing. It's best if nothing happens." Su Xinyi laughed.

Of course she saw that King Rong was lying, but she couldn't help but want to tease him, it was fun.

The corner of Rong Wang's mouth twitched, looked at Su Xinyi and asked, "What about you? I heard that you went to Huaining for a stroll, so it's strange that you have a leisurely mind."

"I'm afraid that the people in my hometown will worry about it. Anyway, I took a detour on horseback and went to see my eldest sister. Your Highness knows that my eldest sister is marrying with a child. I'm not worried." Su Xinyi said.

King Rong looked at Su Xinyi, "You said you are really strange, you didn't grow up in Duke Qi's mansion, how did you have such a good relationship with the people in the mansion over there? Your eldest sister, she will marry you after you come back How much friendship do you guys have? You even broke into the Duke Qin’s mansion to beat people because of her, and forced them to write and leave the book. Now I’m still worried about her second marriage. How can I go to see her? Don't you know that you are such a bad person?"

Su Xinyi looked at him in surprise when he heard King Rong say this, thought for a while and said, "I don't know, maybe this is the bloodline."

King Rong: ...

I believe in your ghosts!
While the two were talking, the door was pushed open and the prince walked in.

Yan Junchu, who was dressed in the crown prince's crown, looked imposing. As soon as he entered, Su Xinyi stood up and greeted him, "My daughter has seen His Royal Highness the Prince."

King Rong also got up and muttered, "Brother, you are too slow. I called Su Xinyi here. I can't say that I didn't do a good job this time."

"I'm sorry for my seventh brother," Yan Junchu said.

Hearing what the crown prince said, King Rong didn't want to appear aggressive, so he said, "Brother, sit down, and I'll have someone serve you tea."

"No need, just say a few words and I'm leaving, and I still have official business." Yan Junchu stopped him, and then looked at Su Xinyi, "The business of the caravan should be almost done, this matter will not be announced to the outside world, it must be done in secret .”

King Rong almost jumped up, "That's right? Didn't you say it was impossible yesterday?"

What happened in this short night?
Yan Junchu didn't answer, his eyes fell on Su Xinyi. His father announced that he went to explain the matter after seeing her. He was also curious about what Su Xinyi said in front of his father.

But with King Rong here, there are some things that are hard to ask, so I simply explained the matter, and said to King Rong: "It's not convenient for you and me to come forward in this matter, I'm going to let Miss Six's two cousins ​​take over the matter, what do you think?"

King Rong thought for a while and said, "I have no objection, but isn't Su Xinyi's cousin in Huaining?"

Speaking of this, King Rong frowned, and turned to stare at Su Xinyi, "So you have other purposes for going to Huaining, why didn't you say it before?"

Su Xinyi knew that King Rong had misunderstood, so he explained to him: "I didn't know about this before I went to Huaining, but after I arrived in Huaining, I found out that His Royal Highness asked my two cousins ​​to come to Beijing, and they happened to come together along the way. "

King Rong didn't believe it, so he went to see the prince again.

Yan Junchu said slowly, "The matter of the caravan should be kept secret. The people around you and me are well-known in the capital. No matter who goes there, they will lose their identity. But how can we feel at ease if we leave this matter to others? Su My family, I think you can trust me, and I can trust it, so everyone is happy. If you disagree, you can recommend a suitable candidate, and we can discuss it later."

King Rong heard that there was nothing wrong with the prince's words, and he also asked himself to recommend someone, and the discomfort in his heart disappeared, so he said generously: "Brother is thoughtful, and I have no objection."

The corner of Su Xinyi's mouth twitched, so easy to fool?
She pretended not to know anything and lowered her head to drink tea, and then heard the prince say to her: "Miss Six, after you go back, you can let them go to the East Palace to find Yang Jin, and after getting the documents and tokens, you can go to Yulinwei. "

Su Xinyi nodded, "Okay, I will inform my two cousins ​​when I get back."

Yan Junchu stood up, "Let's do this first, and discuss if there is something else. I still have something to do, so I will go first." After speaking, he looked at Su Xinyi, "Miss Six, is there anything else?"

Su Xinyi shook her head.

"Then let's go together." Yan Junchu said.

King Rong: ...

He stood up and looked at his eldest brother and said, "Brother, you are busy with your work, and Su Xinyi is not in a hurry, wait until the tea is finished before leaving."

Su Xinyi looked at King Rong, "I have to go back and inform my cousin, and the two cousins ​​have to explain the matter at Yulinwei, not to mention the details of the caravan's operation. I really don't have time to drink tea." When I got here, I looked at King Rong for a while, "Has the candidate for His Highness been selected? They should leave Beijing soon."

King Rong was stunned for a moment, and then said: "I have chosen, I will let them join Su Deng and the others later."

"That's good. In this case, I will take a step first. Your Highness will drink tea slowly." Su Xinyi said with a smile.

Yan Junchu raised his foot to leave, Su Xinyi followed, and when the two of them left, Rong Wang was slow to remember that they were all gone, so he left alone to drink tea?

I'm afraid there is something wrong!

King Rong also went downstairs angrily. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that there was something weird between the prince and Su Xinyi, but he couldn't figure out what was wrong for a while.

Su Xinyi bid farewell to the prince downstairs and went straight back to Su's house. After seeing his elder brother and telling the story, Su Yi breathed a sigh of relief, "I really can't sit still at home, that's fine, you're busy with your work, I'll go Call back from Grandpa."

"Brother, thank you." Su Yi waved his hand, "What's the matter, by the way, your sister-in-law has prepared writing for Su Deng and Su Li, and they will take it with them when they leave."

"Okay, then I'll go and see my sister-in-law." Su Xinyi said.

"You go back and rest first, and let your sister-in-law go over and talk to you later." Su Yi said while walking.

Su Xinyi didn't refuse, and went back to her yard first after leaving with Su Yi. This moment was really relieved.

Lian Qiao and the others rushed out to greet them, Su Xinyi looked at them and said, "Go and call Zhan Qiao."

The delphinium answered and went to the front yard to call for someone.

Su Xinyi looked at Lianqiao and said, "Have you packed the things I asked you to pack last time?"

"It's packed, I'll bring it to the girl." Lian Qiao went into the inner room and quickly came out with a wooden box, "Girl, it's all here."

Su Xinyi opened the box, and there was a stack of bank notes in it. She took it out and counted it. It was not many, and the odds and ends added up to 5000 taels. These were all given to her by her aunt and grandmother.

She took out 500 taels of spares from the box and put them back into the box, asked the forsythia to be put away, and packed the rest.

She took some of the money to go to the border town before, and gave Mu Xing all the money to take it to the caravan. The 500 taels is all she can get out at the moment.

The 500 taels were left behind to give gifts to Cousin Gao. In addition, Zeng Liang couldn't do without money, and she couldn't have any money in her hand.

The crown prince and King Rong will definitely give the big money, and she won't ask how much they get, but she can figure out what she should pay.

When Zhanqiao came over, Su Xinyi told him about the caravan, and then said, "I'm going to let you accompany my two cousins ​​to Yulinwei. Would you like it?"

Zhanqiao hurriedly said: "Of course I am willing. The two young masters have never been to Yulinwei, so it is also necessary for the subordinates to lead the way."

Su Xinyi was actually a little embarrassed. She had just come back from such a long distance and had to turn back. She looked at Zhanqiao and said, "When I come back this time, I will let you take a good rest for a while. This time I will really work hard on you."

Zhanqiao has never seen such a polite master. They are guards, and naturally they do what the master tells them to do, "Girl, don't say that, it's just running errands and it shouldn't be hard work. Then the subordinates go back and clean up. Don't know what's going on?"

"It should be just these two days, and this, I will give it to my two cousins ​​when I arrive in Yulinwei." Su Xinyi handed the purse containing the banknotes to Zhanqiao, "here is the caravan goods I paid for." .”

Zhanqiao hurriedly took it and put it away, "Your subordinates, do you have any other orders?"

"No, go get busy."

Zhanqiao nodded and left.

Su Xinyi went to the study again, and took out a book from the shelf. Inside the book was a map. This map was drawn by herself, similar to the one used on the grassland.

She spread the map, thought carefully about the road she had traveled on the grassland, and remarked the places she hadn't marked. This map is only part of it, and the rest of the blank space will wait for her cousin and the others to pass through the Tatar land. Only the grassland can be painted bit by bit.

Su Xinyi brushed the map with his hand, then solemnly put it away, and took out the leather bag he had prepared from the drawer to put it in.

Holding the small leather bag in both hands, I thought of today's imperial prelude, although I don't know what His Majesty means, but I still have to do what needs to be done.

When Mrs. Tai and the others came back from Daling Temple, Su Xinyi went to the front yard to greet her. Just as she met her grandmother, she saw the concierge rushing in, "Mrs. Tai, the imperial decree has arrived!"

　The [-]-word update is complete, so cute, please ask for a monthly ticket by the way.
