Xiaoyao Xiaojunhou

Chapter 281
"Your Majesty, there must be fraud in this. Please punish Jiangzhou Sima for colluding with Liang's envoy..." Li Zhong said, suddenly became excited, and cupped his hands at Emperor Chen.

"That's it!" Chen Huang suddenly shouted, interrupting Li Zhong.

All the ministers were shocked and looked at Emperor Chen.

"You people, when facing the envoys of the Liang Kingdom, you shrink back. However, you dare to criticize those who dare to mediate and negotiate terms with the envoys of the Liang Kingdom behind their backs. What are your intentions?"

Chen Huang showed no mercy and scolded him sternly.

"Your Majesty..." Li Zhong leaned over and knelt down, "I also want to protect the country..."

"Sima Zhu Xiuyuan of Jiangzhou has extraordinary courage and is capable of things that others cannot do. He has saved the face of my Chen Dynasty and has done a great job...retire from the Dynasty!" Chen Huang ignored Li Zhong, interrupted him directly, and continued.

Chen Huang took Yu Lihua's hand, turned around and walked away quickly, no longer looking at the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty.

The accompanying eunuchs and maids quickly followed, and in the blink of an eye, the upper hall was empty.

The ministers who were left all over the place looked at each other in confusion, not knowing whether to advance or retreat.

……

Let’s talk about the agreement sent to Chang’an, the capital of Liang State.

There was also a letter written by Li Jiye himself, and together with the agreement, it was sent to Chang'an by fast horse.

The postman was not a postman at first, but actually one of Li Jiye's followers.

He received Li Jiye's warrant, galloped his horse and galloped all the way, and crossed the border between Liang and Chen at noon that day.

He entrusted the agreement and letter to the Liang Guo Post Station, and presented the warrant of King Qian, ordering the post station to rush [-] miles away and send it to Chang'an.

Yi Cheng checked King Qian's order and found it to be correct, so he did not dare to neglect it.

Immediately sent a postman, carrying the agreement and letters, and rushed to Chang'an.

The postman traveled under the stars and night, wearing the stars and the moon, tirelessly. He passed many post stations and changed many horses along the way.

Traveling through mountains and rivers, crossing cities and rivers, running wildly across the land of Liang Kingdom.

Two days later.

Emperor Liang received the agreement and letter.

Emperor Liang first read the letter written by King Qian, and then read the agreement.

After reading the agreement, he carefully read the letter written by King Qian again.

After putting down the letter and pondering for a while, Emperor Liang immediately summoned his ministers and brought the matter to the court for discussion...

at the same time.

Jiangzhou.

Waiting for Emperor Liang's reply to see if the agreement would take effect, the original plan to leave Jiangzhou five days later fell through.

For Li Jiye and Li Qingnu, this was a wonderful and unexpected surprise.

Because they can stay for two more days.

The scenery and people of Jiangzhou made the two brothers and sisters forget to leave.

It would be great if we could stay a little longer.

Li Qingnu cherished this hard-won opportunity. She pulled Dong Shuyu and pestered Dong Shuzhen.

The three girls sleep together and sit together, staying with each other day and night, talking about everything, and feeling like sisters.

Zhu Xiuyuan was naturally reluctant to see Li Qingnu "occupying" his wife.

A whole day passed and he didn't even see his wife.

If he didn't know clearly that Li Qingnu was a girl, Zhu Xiuyuan would have gone crazy.

Because she "abducted" Dong Shuzhen and Dong Shuyu at the same time...

But he also thought that this situation should pass soon. It should be fine after Li Qingnu sets off to return to China. When the wife returns, everything will return to normal.

So Zhu Xiuyuan just let things take their own course, let her go, and the patience will pass.

It was just his little maid Qiu Wen who suffered so much. Whenever night fell, she was scared to death.

For the past two days, Qiuwen was laying the floor in his room, afraid to go back to the room, afraid of the dark and ghosts... As for Li Jiye, he was even more excited than his sister.

Because he had a few more days to ask questions and answer his doubts.

Li Jiye began to pester Zhu Xiuyuan again, asking questions without stopping for a moment.

It's just a matter of sleeping with Zhu Xiuyuan...

If Zhu Xiuyuan invites him, Li Jiye will definitely agree and be overjoyed...

Zhu Xiuyuan was actually a little annoyed with him.

He is very capable of asking questions, and he is tireless in asking questions. He is not ashamed to ask questions and has a strong thirst for knowledge.

However, Zhu Xiuyuan saw that when the agreement was being negotiated, Li Jiye didn't have to embarrass him too much.

Also because of his thirst for knowledge and his sister's face, Zhu Xiuyuan patiently made sacrifices, spoke out, and answered his questions to satisfy him.

……

Three days have passed since the postman who went to Liang Kingdom left.

Dong's study room.

Zhu Xiuyuan and Li Jiye sat opposite each other. There were countless manuscript papers on the table, with pen and ink spread across them.

Zhu Xiuyuan talked and wrote, drew pictures and described things, and supplemented them with pictures to speed up Li Jiye's understanding. He played a very hard role as a "teacher".

In the evening, all Li Jiye's problems were finally explained.

At this time, Zhu Xiuyuan's voice was hoarse, his mouth was dry, and he felt exhausted all over.

Li Jiye was quite good at taking matters into his own hands. He hurriedly thanked him with a smile and served tea in person, showing his attentiveness and thoughtfulness.

Zhu Xiuyuan was not polite and took it directly and drank the tea that Li Jiye held.

After taking a sip of tea to moisten his throat, Zhu Xiuyuan put the cup down and suddenly asked: "It's been three days. I wonder if the postman has delivered the agreement, and I wonder if His Majesty Liang Guo can agree?"

Li Jiye laughed heartily and seemed not worried at all.

After laughing, he said: "Brother Zhu, don't worry about this. I guess my father's reply is already on the way. Everything will be clear by tomorrow at the earliest and the day after tomorrow at the latest."

Zhu Xiuyuan was full of confidence and couldn't help but curiously said: "Brother Li is very sure..."

As he spoke, Zhu Xiuyuan's expression suddenly darkened slightly.

If Emperor Liang failed to agree in the end, then this matter would not be perfect.

In fact, Zhu Xiuyuan received a letter from Yang Tingyu from the capital yesterday afternoon.

Yang Tingyu mentioned in the letter that the small court meeting that took place in Jinshen Hall three days ago, the praises of Emperor Chen, the praises and criticisms of the ministers, etc. were all recorded in this letter one by one.

Yang Tingyu wrote this letter to reassure Zhu Xiuyuan and let him know that even if he failed in the end, he had saved Chen Guo's face. If he could do what others could not, he should have made a great contribution!
Zhu Xiuyuan and Dong Cheng were relieved after reading this letter.

At this point, they have passed the most difficult level.

But Zhu Xiuyuan has a little bit of obsessive-compulsive disorder, no matter what he does, he pursues perfection.

Regarding this matter, Zhu Xiuyuan naturally hoped that Emperor Liang would finally agree and everyone would be happy.

As Zhu Xiuyuan spoke, his mind was spinning, and he had already thought about this a lot.

Li Jiye didn't know what he was thinking. Seeing Zhu Xiuyuan's face turned gloomy, he smiled and said: "Brother Zhu, in that letter I already understood the reason and moved it with emotion. Besides, my father is wise and has always trusted me. I believe in my father." The emperor will definitely agree."

"Brother Zhu, don't worry!" Li Jiye added.

"I hope it goes as Brother Li expected!" Zhu Xiuyuan forced a smile.

Day two.

morning.

While Zhu Xiuyuan answered Li Jiye's questions, he looked eagerly and looked around from time to time.

But the reality is so disappointing, Emperor Liang's reply has still not arrived.
