Chapter 405 Where is the oriole? (4)
Han Qian chuckled and said, "Don't worry. Sister-in-law go back and tell brother, I will handle this matter myself, don't let them intervene."

"What?" Wei Tiantian thought he had heard wrong.

"I can't always rely on my family. When my mother is around, I rely on my mother. When my mother is gone, I rely on my brother... I should grow up and learn to deal with these things by myself."

Wei Tiantian looked at Han Qian in surprise, and smiled after a while: "If the Eldest Princess hears these words, she will definitely be able to smile at Jiuquan."

"I used to be too self-willed, always creating a mess waiting for my mother and brothers to clean up. Thinking about it now, I'm really ashamed." Han Qian sighed.

"Oh, my lady suddenly looks like this, it's hard to get used to it. It's more real to be the younger sister who is not afraid of anything, not afraid of anything." Wei Tiantian smiled and bowed to the sky with his palms together, "Amitabha, please God hurry up and give us back the former empress."

"Don't make fun of others!" Han Qian took a piece of rose cake and put it into Wei Tiantian's mouth.

"Hmm..." Wei Tiantian couldn't speak for a while, his face was filled with peach blossoms.

Wei Tiantian ate a piece of rose cake, took another sip of tea, and said, "Hey, to be honest, what is your plan? That Yindieer should not stay with Jin'er for a long time."

"I know that." Han Qian smiled lightly, "It won't be too long, at most it will take ten or eight days. I will take advantage of this time to find out if there is such a person in the palace." , it will be dealt with together at that time."

"Your Majesty, is this going to catch them all once and for all?" Wei Tiantian asked with a light smile.

"Hey..." Han Qian pretended to smile sinisterly, and made a face at Wei Tiantian.

Ten days later, the envoys from Northern Mongolia entered Yundu City. In addition to submitting their credentials, they also presented the tribute that Northern Mongolia had given to Dayun this time: ten thousand taels of gold, ten boxes of red, blue and green gemstones, and fifty carts of precious furs of various colors. There are thousands of foxes, otters, bears, deer and other animals of various colors, two thousand horses, and several silver pieces of uneven color.

The gift list of the tribute was sold to the Ministry of Rites, handed over to the Ministry of Accounts, and the Ministry of Accounts registered and compiled the book, counted it and put it in the warehouse. I was very busy.

It happened to be the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, and the emperor showed kindness in the face of these tributes, and hosted a banquet in the palace to invite the envoys from Northern Mongolia to watch the singing and dancing.

The empress ordered the imperial dining room to prepare exquisite and rich imperial meals and exquisite singing and dancing.

During the banquet, the Northern Mongolian envoy was persuaded to have a few more drinks and then he began to feel flustered. He didn't know who started it first. Speaking of this battle, it was a misunderstanding. The Northern Mongolian envoy laughed and said: "It's all because of Dayun Shangbang's beauties are too tempting, hahaha..."

His Majesty the Emperor remained calm, but the Empress smiled: "What do you mean by this, could it be that the war between the two countries is only for a few beauties? Why didn't you say it earlier? My palace is not so stingy."

The Beimeng envoy looked at the empress in surprise when he heard the words, couldn't help but stood up, cupped his hands and said, "I don't know what the empress means?"

"Since your envoy likes beauties, why don't I give you ten?" Han Qian smiled lightly.

"The empress is serious?!" The envoy of Northern Mongolia immediately smiled. He didn't look down on the guards of the King of Northern Mongolia who fought and killed all day long, especially after the war between the two countries was triggered and Northern Mongolia suffered heavy losses. , if you can bring back ten beauties from Dayun, wouldn't that mean giving those warriors a hard slap in the face?

Han Qian smiled sweetly and glanced at Sun Defu next to him.

With a flick of the Buddha dust in Sun Defu's hand, ten girls in goose-yellow palace attire came out and stood in front of the Beimeng envoy.All of them stood with their hands down, each more pitiful than the other.

"Oh! This is really... this is really great!" The Beimeng envoy spread his hands happily, and walked slowly in front of the ten maids, carefully examining them one by one, and became more and more satisfied. Then he turned around and bowed to the empress empress: "I thank Queen Dayun for your generous gift! I will definitely bring this beauty back to Beimeng and present it to the king. May Beimeng and Dayun be reconciled forever!"

"Very good, then the ten women will be sent to the post house." Han Qian smiled.

"Thank you, empress." The Northern Mongolian envoy saluted again.

The atmosphere at the banquet was always very good, it could be said that the host and guests had a good time, only Shao Juanwen, the head of the household department in the corner, didn't look half ugly.

After the banquet was over, Yun Shuo took Han Qian back to Fengzhang Hall in a warm sedan chair, and Yun Shuo couldn't help laughing after entering the door.

"What are you laughing at? It's so weird." Han Qian waited for Pingguoer to come forward to untie her cloak, then turned around and sat down on the low couch, letting Xiangcheng come forward to change her shoes—the newly made lamb wool warm boots It was a little tight, so he frowned and said: "Oh, my feet are so swollen and sore, who of you will give me a pinch."

Xiangcheng hurriedly knelt on the pedals to pinch Han Qian's feet, and when she reached her ankles, she sighed, "Your Majesty's feet are getting more and more swollen, and the newly made warm boots are still a little too small." As she spoke, she regretted it Shake your head.

"Don't blame them. When I told them the size, the feet were not so swollen." Han Qian sighed.

Yun Shuo changed his clothes and came over, pinched Han Qian's feet to check them, and sighed: "Wei Lingfeng is still a bit mediocre after all, such a trivial matter can't be solved. Let Madam Ninghou enter the palace tomorrow." Let's go."

"It's not his fault. Everyone's body is different. Some people suffer more when they are pregnant, some people get fatter, and I am bloated..."

"It's only been a few months, and my feet are swollen like this, what should I do in the future?" Yun Shuo sighed distressedly.

"Anyway, it's not painful, and it's not a big deal. Others can bear it, why can't I?" Han Qian smiled nonchalantly.

Hearing this, Yun Shuo looked up at her in surprise, thinking that she had been taking care of herself for a while, and her body was swollen due to her pregnancy. She looked fatter than before, and her small face vaguely reappeared. The baby fat in childhood, people can't help but want to pinch it.However, her gaze was a little more determined, calm, solemn, and resolute than when she was a child.She seemed to have transformed into another person, but she was still the one he loved the most.

"What are you looking at?" Han Qian chuckled lightly and lifted his foot to kick him, "I laughed so maliciously just now, and now I'm looking at him like that again!"

Yun Shuo came back to his senses, and said with a smile: "I was thinking, my queen is also capable of tricks, and she is just too lazy to use them on weekdays. Today, she really shocked everyone!"

"What does this cynicism mean?" Han Qian asked with a smile.

"It's just that I don't understand why three of the ten beauties who were rewarded to the Beimeng envoys are newcomers to the palace? There is also a person who looks so good-looking and looks like the princess of the Han family's personal clothes?"
