Chapter 916: Just pretend, who can’t?

After Zhao Rui succeeded to the throne, he gave the emperor the greatest freedom.

In addition to not being able to enter the capital, walking around the other courtyard is allowed, but there are always people watching, so it stands to reason that the two of them cannot have any intersection.

Zhao Rui: "Keep staring."

Li Shi'an looked at the words "Royal Courtyard" not far away and asked Guan Ting: "Is this where the rebellious prince was imprisoned?"

Guan Ting: "Exactly. Speaking of this, my subordinates found out that King Xuan personally brought it back then."

"So, King Xuan was quite capable back then."

Thinking of what he had found, Guan Ting wanted to say that he was not only somewhat capable. In his early years, King Xuan was a powerful figure. The only person who could be entrusted with important tasks by the late emperor of the Song Dynasty alone, besides King Xuan, was now Mr. Gu.

"Let's go in and see this guy."

How can he be a simple person after the rebellion and still live safe and sound to this day? It’s so hard not to look at him.

"Who is coming?"

Guan Ting took out a token and said, "This is the Crown Prince of Jiaozhi. We have come all the way to see this other courtyard."

The soldier who asked the question was a little stunned and looked at his companions undecided.

Another soldier also looked over. The two looked at each other. The soldier who asked the question looked away and said: "This is the Royal Courtyard. It is not open to the public. You can only enter with His Majesty's token."

This time it was Li Shian who lived in the clam.

In the Jiaozhi Kingdom, everyone had to give in when they saw him. Even when he confronted Nong Zhigao, their military governor stationed in Guangdong and Guangxi, he always gained the upper hand. How come he was humiliated repeatedly when he came to the capital of Song Dynasty?
Even a small soldier dared to stop him.

Li Shi'an narrowed his eyes: "I am the crown prince of Jiaozhi Kingdom. I just went to the other courtyard to have a look. You want to stop me. Do you want to provoke a dispute between the two countries?"

The soldier cursed inwardly.

Didn't he make it clear just now that His Majesty's token is required before he can be released?

What kind of prestige is this with him?

In the Jiaozhi country, a prince from a small country seems to be a great person, but he will only yell at his little soldier here.

"We can't let him go without His Majesty's permission. We also act according to the rules. Your Highness has a noble status, so why bother embarrassment for us little people like us."

Li Shi'an never expected that he would not even be able to see that person's face when he left the city early in the morning.

But just going back like this, where would he put his face?

What a dilemma.

Guan Ting: "Your Highness, we don't have much time. We have to rush back to change clothes and enter the palace for the banquet!"

Li Shi'an hummed: "I don't have time to argue with you today. I count you lucky."

He shook his face and his sleeves again.

Finally, he left angrily.

When the others were out of sight, the soldier imitated Li Shian's tone and said: "A prince from a small place really thinks he has a noble status. Bah. In our own territory, how dare he kill I?"

Guanting, who hasn't gone far yet:...

Can you keep these words in your heart, or wait until he is far away before saying them?

After he got on the horse, he looked at his Royal Highness's back, worried.

Before coming to the Song Dynasty, he was a little worried. He was worried that his Highness did not know the importance of his family, but His Majesty favored this legitimate son. He was so arrogant that he did not know how much he weighed.

I completely forgot what His Majesty told me before setting off.

When he was about to enter the city, Guan Ting thought for a while and still felt that he should remind His Highness to restrain himself.

"Your Highness, we are here to discuss with the Song Dynasty the opening of border trade. If we want trade between the two sides, we must first build roads. But who will pay for the money and how much will depend on our relationship with the Song Dynasty this time. How can Ting talk about it?”

Li Shian turned around and looked at Guan Ting unhappily. He opened his mouth to curse.

But looking at the majestic city gates of the Song Dynasty and the bustling streets not far away, even if he was arrogant, he couldn't just say that Cochin was good.

It's really far from it.

"This palace knows, and I need you to remind me. Now go back to Sifang Pavilion and prepare to enter the palace for the banquet."

However, as soon as I arrived at the Sifang Pavilion, I met the Tibetan princess Lamu at the door. The two of them had hundreds of ideas, but they still looked very humble and polite.

In fact, if he hadn't been warned by Guanting before entering the city, he wouldn't have wanted to pay attention to Ram when he saw him.

He couldn't help but look down on the Song Dynasty. A marriage princess from Tubo, who was said to be a princess, was actually an insignificant person elected by several tribes. He, the prince, naturally disdained her.

But since we are coming to discuss this trade deal with Song Dynasty.

It can't be too...

It was so, Li Shian didn't know how to describe it for a moment.

Anyway, just pretend.

Who doesn’t know it yet?

"Princess, are you going out for a walk?"

Ram smiled and said: "No, I am waiting here specially for His Highness the Crown Prince!"

Only then did Li Shian look directly at Ram.

"Princess, do you have anything to do with me?"

Ram looked around and said, "Does Your Highness want to talk to this princess here in detail?"

Li Shian thought for a while and followed Ram to her yard.

After sitting down, Ram's maid poured tea and then retreated. Guan Ting also stood guard at the door. Li Shi'an did not drink tea, but looked at Ram: "Just tell me, what's the matter?"

"I have heard for a long time that His Highness the Crown Prince is a cheerful person, so I will stop beating around the bush. I heard that His Highness came here this time to cooperate with the Song Dynasty and open up trade relations. However, your country's treasury is empty. He came to Song Dynasty because he wanted to cooperate with Song Dynasty. Let’s first decide on border road construction.”

Li Shian looked at Ram with sharp eyes.

"How do you know this?"

Before, I looked at Ram with contempt, but now I looked at Ram with fear because of these words.

"Why is Your Highness looking at me like this? You have done a lot of detailed work in our various departments in Tubo, and naturally we do too. Song Ting's hands are not very long, so we can still find out some things from your Jiaozhi country."

Li Shian slapped the table.

Tea was spilled everywhere on the table.

"Is Princess Ram showing off, or looking down on me, Jiaozhi?"

Ram smiled and said nothing.

Isn't it obvious that the prince of Jiaozhi is too blindly confident? How can their small country be comparable to the Song Dynasty?

A single Jiedu envoy had frightened them for so many years and they did not dare to move.

They also wanted to covet the territory of the Song Dynasty. If it weren't for the fact that the Song Dynasty was across the way and Dali was captured by the Song Dynasty, they would have been able to defeat Jiaozhi in Tibet.

Li Shian is angry!
This is the first time in twenty-five years that I am so angry.

It made him even more angry than going to the Royal Courtyard and being blocked by two soldiers.

"Your Highness, what I am saying now is not true. You should listen to what this princess has to say and then make your decision."

Li Shian gritted his teeth and sat down: "If you have something to say, just say it. Don't say so much."

"Your Highness came here because he didn't want to have any ongoing relationship with the Song Dynasty. Only in this way can the Song Dynasty help the Jiaozhi country to pay for road construction."
