After the marriage, the cousin was spoiled by the whole family of the Marquis's Mansion

Chapter 113 Ajina

Kang Jintang and Eunuch Gao looked at each other in bewilderment. How could this princess of the Western Jin Dynasty recognize Ji Yunzhang?

The gentle voice came from the carriage again, "Both the current General Ji and the old General Ji are powerful opponents in the battlefield of the Western Jin Dynasty. I heard that Ji Yunzhang is General Ji's only son. I want to see if the men of the Ji family are really as brave as the rumors say."

Kang Jintang understood, and he stepped forward and said, "Princess, General Ji is indeed heroic, but his son Ji Yunzhang does not necessarily inherit his father's heroic spirit."

"He is just a prisoner now, and it is not appropriate for him to see the princess."

"Prisoner?" The princess in the carriage snorted. "If that's the case, then disappear, so as not to pollute my eyes."

"Yes Yes."

Kang Jintang took a step aside and said, "Lift the sedan chair!"

Both sides of the wide-open city gate were filled with people who came to watch the excitement.

They had never traveled far in their entire lives, let alone seen foreigners. When they heard that the Western Jin Dynasty was paying tribute today, they all came out to join in the fun and see if the foreigners also had two eyes and one mouth.

Daqi values ​​reading, so most of the men there are scholars and have slender figures like green bamboos.

The people of the Western Jin Dynasty were different. They were a nation on horseback, good at riding, shooting and hunting. The men were all tall and strong, with broad backs and strong waists.

The carriage was blocked so tightly that the foreign princess could not be seen at all.

There were a dozen maids following the carriage, their faces were covered tightly and only a pair of eyes could be seen.

The clothes she wore were short and small, and the white skin on her waist was so attractive that the men watching the fun on the street almost drooled.

The pants they were wearing didn't look like pants, and the skirts didn't look like skirts, and they were just very weird.

There are countless small braids on her head, with beads of various colors strung on them.

These people seemed to be oblivious to the onlookers and marched in unison towards the imperial city.

“This is the person from the Western Jin Dynasty.”

"Tsk tsk, this dress is really immoral, the fabric on the shirt is too small!"

"I heard that this princess was presented to your Majesty by the King of Western Jin."

"You launched a massive attack years ago, and now you're sending the princess away?"

"You don't understand. The Western Jin Dynasty was poor. I heard that there was nothing but grass. How expensive is it to fight a war? They didn't have much money to begin with. A war would make them even poorer. Now they are sending the princess to ask for peace."

"A princess and a dozen maids, all of whom look beautiful. Your Majesty has just ascended the throne and has not yet selected concubines, but now the harem is about to be filled up."

The carriage slowly moved to the front of the imperial city.

The gauze curtain on the car was slowly pulled open, and a woman in a white gauze dress gracefully stepped down from the car.

The palace gates were wide open, and all the Western Jin soldiers and maids remained outside the palace.

Only the princess and the envoys entered the palace together.

The Yongle Palace is full of hydrangeas planted in front and behind the palace. The large patches of pink and purple are very beautiful.

This was planted by the order of the former imperial concubine. The palace servants carefully cared for it for many years before it blossomed into such a beautiful sight in the spring.

The envoys from the Western Jin Dynasty were already stunned. Whether it was the capital, the imperial city, or even this small palace, they were all so magnificent.

The envoy came back to his senses. He approached the princess and whispered, "Princess, prosperity is blinding, and the people of Daqi are the most cunning. Don't forget the purpose of your trip."

The princess folded her hands in front of her abdomen, stood at the palace gate, and looked straight ahead, "Master Tug, please rest assured. Ajina knows her mission."

The palace maid who went in to pass the message came out.

"Princess, please, the envoy will come to see you."

Ajina half covered her cheek with a scarf and walked slowly into the hall with small steps.

The evening sun was as bright as a radiant glow, and her whole body seemed to be coated with a layer of golden light.

Like a holy fairy walking out of the rosy glow.

All the officials in the hall were stunned. For a moment, it was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop. There was a "click".

I don't know who dropped the chopsticks.

Everyone else reacted instantly. This was a princess being married off to a foreign country. How could he stare at her so openly?

Ajina folded her hands in front of her chest, "Ajina greets His Majesty."

The envoy Bilituge behind her clenched his right fist and placed it on his left shoulder, half bowing his body, "The envoy of the Western Jin Dynasty, Bilituge, pays respect to Your Majesty."

Meng Xuanyi raised his right hand into the air, "Princess, please stand up."

Bilituge put down his hand and stood up straight. "Your Majesty, we have come all the way to Guidu City, bringing with us a thousand fine horses, just to seek peace for the people of our two countries."

Meng Xuanyi said, "Princess and the envoys have worked hard. Today's banquet is specially prepared for the princess."

"The chefs in my imperial kitchen have taken great pains to use their best skills to entertain the princess."

"If this is inconsiderate, I hope Princess will forgive me."

Ajina looked around and said, "I've heard that Daqi is a vast land with abundant resources, which can be seen from the food on the table."

Meng Xuanyi suddenly leaned forward a little, "I found that the princess's Daqi dialect is very standard, but the envoy has a bit of an accent."

"If I hadn't seen the princess and only heard her voice, I would have thought that she was a fake princess who appeared out of nowhere."

Ajina raised her eyelids slightly. "When I was a child, I often disguised myself and sneaked to the border to play. There I met a shepherd boy. He was from Daqi, and I learned Daqi dialect from him."

"Oh I got it."

Meng Xuanyi sat back down.

Queen Liu Liru beside her said, "Your Majesty, the princess has been very tired from the journey. You should let her take a seat first. It won't be too late to talk later."

"Yes, it was my negligence!" Meng Xuanyi slapped his forehead, "The Queen was right to remind me."

"Come here, take a seat."

Ajina and Bilituge sat below Meng Xuanyi.

The food on this table was particularly rich, with all kinds of creatures running on the ground, flying in the sky, and swimming in the water.

There were many things that Bilituge had never seen before.

The two of them sat upright, and neither of them reached out to pick up the chopsticks.

"By the way, there is one more thing specially prepared for you." Meng Xuanyi tapped his forehead with his finger, as if he suddenly thought of something.

"Someone, bring the milk tea."

A palace servant came up with two bowls of brown milk tea and placed them in front of the two men.

Meng Xuanyi pointed at the milk tea and said, "I asked the prince of Xinling Marquis and asked the imperial kitchen to make this milk tea. Only Xinling Marquis, who has been at the border for many years, knows how to make this."

"This taste of my hometown is my highest respect to the two distinguished guests who have come from afar."

Bilituge looked at the milk tea in front of him, raised his head and smiled brightly, "Your Majesty is thoughtful, but Tuge has come all the way to Daqi, so there is no reason for me to continue drinking milk tea. I must try the delicacies that are not available in the Western Jin Dynasty."

As he spoke, he saw an official sitting diagonally opposite him pick up a piece of black stuff and put it into his mouth.

Bilituge quickly found the same food among the plates on the table and followed suit, picking up a large piece.

But the taste was really not good, there was a nauseating smell that rushed into his nose.

"Pooh! Ugh!"

Bilituge's face, which was a little dark, turned red with nausea.

He looked very disappointed. "What is this? Why is it so unpalatable? It's even more unpalatable than the sour dumplings in the Western Jin Dynasty."

King Sheng, who was sitting opposite him, put down his chopsticks and explained, "This is a unique preserved egg from Daqi. The envoy has never eaten it before, so he must be unaccustomed to it."
