Silly Girl Allure

Chapter 217
He already felt that he was guilty enough for this son, and he didn't want to further distance the distance between the two because of this incident.

"Then let's do this first. You can pick a time later and bring her to the palace to have a light meal together. You don't need to be too particular. Since she is the person you like, I won't make things difficult for her." The emperor said.

Bu Jingyu stood up excitedly, rushed up and hugged the emperor, and exclaimed loudly: "You are really my good father!"

The emperor put his hand on his shoulder helplessly, but the smile on the corner of his mouth could not be dissipated, "Okay, okay, your father's old bones will be shaken apart by you."

Bu Jingyu immediately realized his behavior, quickly let go of his hand, and stood aside obediently with his head down.

Bu Jinghan looked at the two father and son in front of him, and was happy for them in his heart, but he still said angrily, "How decent is Cheng!"

Sunset country.

The sun once again shone on the mighty Golden Temple.Sitting on the throne, Ji Rufeng, the emperor of the Xizhao Kingdom, said, "Do you have anything to do, please?"

Ouyang Lou came out, clasped his fists in front of his chest, lowered his head and said in awe: "I have something to tell you. I want to recommend someone to your majesty. He is very talented in governing the country."

The emperor of Xizhao Kingdom asked with interest: "To be recommended by Ouyang Aiqing, he must be definitely not an ordinary person. What's his name?"

Ouyang Lou replied respectfully: "His name is Beitang Mo, from Qingzhou."

The scene of that night appeared in the mind of the emperor of Xizhao Kingdom.Unexpectedly, it was him.

Prime Minister Sima Yun said: "Lord Ouyang, I heard that Beitang Mo is not only a minor, but also a merchant. This merchant is only interested in profit."

Ouyang Lou stared at the other party angrily, and repeatedly retorted: "Beitangmo is indeed a good businessman. But he is a businessman with a conscience. Your Majesty, he not only founded a free school in Qingzhou, which provides free education for children from poor families, but also runs a charity house." Give food to people who are dying of starvation. As for him being an underage child, I think that a person's talent should not be measured by his age."

Indeed, although that Beitang Mo was young, his courage and insight were admirable.Worth seeing.

Ji Rufeng opened his mouth and said: "The two lovers don't quarrel. I will announce Beitang Mo."

Ji Rufeng turned his head, and said to the eunuch next to him: "Little Gaozi, you can go to Xuanbei Tang Mo!"

Eunuch Gao bowed his head and responded, "The servant leads the order."

Ji Rufeng looked at the quiet group of officials below, and asked, "Do you have anything else to do, my loves?"

The officials below were silent at first, then the Prime Minister Sima Yun stood up solemnly and said: "I have a book to participate in: the day before yesterday, the Nanzhao Kingdom sent envoys to negotiate a peace, and asked my Xizhao Kingdom to give Nanzhao Kingdom 20 guan of silver each year. 15 bolts of silk and [-] catties of tea, or they will attack our Xizhao Kingdom again."

This news from Prime Minister Sima Yun plunged the entire court into a dead silence.Since the battle of Haoshuichuan in February, Xizhao Kingdom ended the war with a disastrous defeat, the entire court officials have changed their colors, even the emperor Ji Rufeng is no exception.Now his complexion has also become very ugly.

Finally, Ji Rufeng broke the dead silence first, and asked, "Do you have any opinions on this matter?"

At this time, Prime Minister Sima Yun stood up again and replied: "I think we should agree to the request of Nanzhao Kingdom. If Nanzhao Kingdom attacks, my military expenses for avoiding the war will definitely be higher than the increased silver! Moreover, I really don't have the heart to see the people suffering from the flames of war again!"

Prime Minister Sima Yun's heartfelt words moved all the ministers, even Ji Rufeng was no exception.

Immediately, a minister echoed: "Your Majesty, my minister seconded the proposal. Our Xizhao Kingdom really cannot stand any war now."

Another vote seconded.

Ouyang Lou stood up with a solemn expression, and said: "Your Majesty, I do not agree with the Prime Minister's opinion. This Nanzhao Kingdom was originally a territory of my Xizhao Kingdom. Since Yuan Suu claimed to be a country, it has invaded my Xizhao. If I agree Increasing the annual silver will not only damage my national prestige in Xizhao, but also feed the wolves! Please think twice, Your Majesty!" Ouyang Lou excitedly bowed to the emperor of Xizhao Kingdom.

Ouyang Lou's heartfelt words moved some ministers who had the same opinion.Even Ji Rufeng lowered his head and thought.

Those ministers who had the same opinion immediately stood up and seconded.

The whole court was like a boiling pot, full of noise.

On the other side, Beitang Mo had a rare leisure time in the mansion, and when he was planning to enjoy the day in the yard, he saw his good brother approaching solemnly, and said, "The palace sent someone to ask you to see the emperor." .”

Beitang Mo looked at Xia Xuan in shock and said, "See, see the emperor? Why would the emperor want to see me?"

Xia Xuan replied: "I think it's because of Master Ouyang!"

Xia Xuan suddenly hugged Beitang Mo and said: "Beitang Mo, you must be careful when you see the queen! Especially the emperor, you must be more cautious! Mixing with a king is like mixing with a tiger!"

Beitang Mo was a little moved by his brother's reminder, and replied: "Xia Xuan, don't worry. I will be cautious."

Xia Xuan let go of Beitang Mo, and said, "I've already arranged for Eunuch Gao to report. You have to listen to him all the way."

Beitang Mo nodded and said, "I will."

Beitang Mo and Xia Xuan came to the courtyard near the gate.Seeing that there was an incense table there, they knelt down together and listened to the order.

Beitang Mo only heard a soft voice saying: "The emperor has a mouth to guard, and Xuan Beitang Mo sees Jin."

After that Eunuch Gao finished reading, Beitang Mo and Xia Xuan stood up.

Eunuch Gao came over and said, "Brother Beicousin, hurry up and leave with our family! The emperor is still waiting!"

Xia Xuan nodded towards Beitang Mo.Beitang Mo and Eunuch Gao got into the carriage and set off.

On the carriage, while dealing with Eunuch Gao, Beitang Mo thought excitedly: He actually has the opportunity to come to the palace of the Xizhao Kingdom, this is the first time he has traveled to such a luxurious place.

In the past, he was a standard technical nerd, and spent most of his time doing research and playing games, and very little time for traveling, let alone visiting some places of interest.

Just as he was thinking, Eunuch Gao's voice interrupted his thoughts: "Cousin North, we're here. Let's get out of the car."

Beitangmo couldn't wait to get out of the car.However, the strange thing is that it is still on the Royal Street, and the Imperial Palace is still far away.It’s just that the right side of this section of Imperial Street is Shangshusheng, Yushitai and other central institutions. The solemn and solemn yamen stands by the roadside, and the pair of stone lions with their teeth and claws widen their eyes and announce to the world that this place is here. It is the core of the Sunset Kingdom.

Eunuch Gao looked at Beitang Mo's puzzled expression, and explained: "If you have to ride a carriage here, it's quite a show."

Beitang Mo bowed to Eunuch Gao and said, "Eunuch Gao, I don't know the rules of the palace very well. I hope you will support me."

Eunuch Gao nodded and said, "Don't worry. Our family will remind you. Come with our family."

Beitangmo followed Eunuch Gao while looking at the buildings on the side of the road.After all, how could a modern person not be interested in the ancient palace?Beitangmo was surprised to find that most of the buildings in the palace were made of green glass tiles.Moreover, Beitangmo also found that the layout of the palace was very similar to what he saw on TV in the Forbidden City in Beijing.

He also found that every time he passed a yamen, there were piles of officials gathered, waiting to be received by the officials.These officials gathered together in twos and threes, chatting and chatting to pass the waiting time.Along the way, many people took the initiative to say hello to Eunuch Gao.This allowed Beitangmo to see Eunuch Gao's status in the palace.

At the Xuande Gate, Eunuch Gao stopped, turned around and said to Beitang Mo: "Brother Beitang, please look around when you enter this Xuande Gate, otherwise you will break the etiquette."

Therefore, during the next five to ten minutes of the journey, Beitang Modu kept his gaze level and followed Eunuch Gao step by step.Finally, Eunuch Gao stopped in front of a palace.

Beitang Mo raised his head and looked at the three large characters of "Pro-Government Hall" written on the high plaque, thinking that he must have arrived.

Eunuch Gao turned around and said to him, "Cousin North, we've arrived. You go in!" After speaking, Eunuch Gao turned and left.

When the excited Beitang Mo approached the main hall, he heard a commotion.Beitang Mo looked at the officials in the whole hall who were bickering and blushing in surprise, and thought with emotion: This is really like a vegetable market.

Although he has very few opportunities to go to the vegetable market...

Beitangmo stood in the corner, observing carefully.

He saw at a glance that Ouyang Lou was arguing with someone, his face was flushed, and he didn't want to let him go.

Beitang Mo raised his head and looked at the emperor on the dragon chair. Ji Rufeng really lived up to his name.

At this time, Ji Rufeng also noticed Beitang Mo, and said, "Beitang Mo, you are here."

The noisy hall fell silent in an instant.Everyone turned their heads to look at Beitang Mo.

Beitang Mo stood up in embarrassment, made a bow, and said respectfully: "The grass-roots see Your Majesty."

He shouldn't be wrong, Beitang Mo's heart was beating silently, it seems to be like this on TV...

Ji Rufeng opened his mouth and said, "Ouyang Aiqing recommended you to me. I want to see your talent. The day before yesterday, the Nanzhao Kingdom sent an envoy to ask for an increase in the age silver. How do you think we should respond?"

Year old silver?This Nanzhao country is a country of tigers and wolves!Beitang Mo thought for a moment, then said cautiously: "Your Majesty, the grassroots think that we should not agree to the request of the Nanzhao Kingdom. The current Nanzhao Kingdom is like a wolf that has just been born. The reason why it wants to invade every year is because it To grow, you need food. Now, if you promise to increase the silver, isn't it the same as feeding a wolf that will attack you at any time?"

Prime Minister Sima Yun stood up again and said earnestly: "Your Majesty, I and the people of Xizhao really cannot stand another war."

Beitang Mo looked at Ji Rufeng and said, "Since Xizhao can't stand another war now, the grass people have a way to stop the war and not pay the old money."

Ji Rufeng was a little surprised, and said eagerly, "Look and tell."

Beitang Mo replied: "Open the mutual market between Nanzhao Kingdom and Xizhao Kingdom."

"Mutual market?" the emperor of Xizhao Kingdom asked suspiciously.

"Yes. Due to the war between Nanzhao Kingdom and Xizhao Kingdom, it lost its exchange market with Xizhao Kingdom. This is absolutely unbearable for Nanzhao Kingdom, which is in urgent need of various commodities from Xizhao. Therefore, it can be conditional on the opening of a mutual market. Absolutely It can temporarily stop the war in Nanzhao Kingdom." Beitang Mo explained confidently.

The emperor of Xizhao Kingdom lowered his head and thought for a moment, "I will send you to discuss with the envoy after three days. If you can successfully negotiate peace with Nanzhao Kingdom, then I will definitely reward you a lot."

Beitang Mo happily replied: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Beitang Mo came out from the main hall. At this moment, Eunuch Gao walked up to him and said, "Young Master Beitang, the emperor wants to see you, please come with me."
