Phoenix that can't smile

Chapter 242: Private Release of Prisoners (1)
"Your Majesty, my concubine just wanted to say, please calm down, Your Majesty, the overall situation must be put first!" When Baosi stood gracefully in front of Minggong, Minggong could only choose to listen to Baosi's greetings in silence.

"Your Majesty, please think twice about what your ministers and concubines say." Seeing that Ming Gong didn't respond, Bao Si hurriedly emphasized it again.

"Si'er, for such a long time, is this how you have been submissive to the widow? You also pleaded for mercy for your own murderer and enemy." Mingong suddenly smiled leisurely, his eyebrows and eyes curved into Baosi's.

"Your Majesty!" Only then did Bao Si realize that this was the first time she had come to find Ming Gong on her own initiative after the quarrel, her cheeks turned red.

"Si'er, do you think state affairs are more important than widows? Or, do you think the blessing and revenge for us is not important?" Ming Gong suddenly grabbed Bao Si's catkin and asked excitedly.

"What are you talking about, my lord? My concubines are just worried that your majesty will act in a moment of loyalty. Because of my concubines, I didn't do better." Bao Si said silently.

"Okay! Si'er, since you said so, I will do so. Yunniang is a traitor. I won't kill her for the time being, but I can't let her go easily. I want Xirong to send a new envoy to pick up Yunniang face to face. Let's go!" Ming Gong sighed and decided.

Bao Si hurriedly saluted, and murmured: "Your Majesty's decision is an important matter for the government. I don't want to ask more questions about this. Please take care of me, Your Majesty. My concubine is leaving."

"Si'er, don't you want to stay in the Hall of Shuilong Shuren today to talk to the widow, even if you are not a widow, there is still noble Xue!" Ming Gong clenched his hands tightly, clasping Baosi's bright wrist, and refused to let go for a long time .

"Your Majesty, take care of your health. Let it be another day. The concubines will be waiting for you in the Jianjia Palace with their makeup on." Bao Si's face was like frosty snow lotus, her eyes were full of affection, and she was deeply blessed.

"Sister Queen! My Majesty, leave as soon as Sister Queen says so!" At this moment, a startled nobleman Xue rushed out from the curtain, looked at Baosi's back, and asked Mingong.

"She is the best woman I have ever met!" Mingong said with shooting stars in his eyes.

The next day, at the early court, Minggong decided to send the doctor Cheng Rong as an envoy to Xirong to return the gift, and proposed to exchange Yunniang with the condition that Xirong resend the envoy.

"My lord, Xi Rong's congratulatory gifts were more than a hundred war horses. What should we give in return?" Cheng Rong asked for instructions.

"What return gift? Cheng Rong, you only need to send a letter from the widow to Xirong Wolf Lord, saying that if they have the sincerity of reconciliation, they will send another special envoy with status to pay tribute in exchange for Yun Yun. Mother, otherwise, the widow will kill that Yun Niang at Caishikou!" Ming Gong said anxiously.

"I obey the order!" Cheng Rong quickly knelt down and said.

"Master Cheng, this time I went to Xirong, and almost died. Why can Lord Cheng still talk and laugh freely? You know, Xirong is a barbaric state. They have more than [-] cavalry. This time the tribute failed, and the special envoy was thrown into death row by the king instead. Once Xi Rong is furious, you will be in danger, Mr. Cheng!" After the court, Li Gui, Minister of the Household Department, was so frightened that he kept admonishing Cheng Rong.

Unexpectedly, Cheng Rong was not only not afraid, but instead clapped his hands and laughed loudly: "Master Li, you are serious, I look down, this mission will die before I leave Beijing.

At night, Minggong was handling government affairs in the Hall of Shuilong Shuren, and Xue Gui was helping to grind the ink. Suddenly, the imperial eunuch Xiao Ruzi ran into the Nuan Pavilion in a panic and kowtowed to Minggong.

"Slave dog, what happened? So flustered?" Ming Gong said sullenly.
