In the imperial envoy's tent, Zhao Zijin was discussing in a low voice with Xia Xun.
Zhao Zijin said: "My lord, tomorrow we will send out teams to conduct separate interviews. I will lead a team of my own and go to a group of the Nahashiha tribe. I think Nahashiha and Mahamu are quite different. If I go
, it will attract more attention to facilitate the Duke’s actions here.”
Xia Xun nodded and said: "Well, then I will stay in the camp. The left-behind people should be the least noticed group. They are not likely to be wary of the people in their own tribe. I don't know the full name of the woman, let alone ask this person."
The people in the tribe asked about it, so I had to wander around and wait for her to come find me again!"
Just as he was talking, the curtain was lifted and someone walked in. Xia Xun turned his back to the door and only thought it was the guards from the camp entering the tent, so he didn't pay attention. Zhao Zijin saw a woman walking in from the door of the tent, but couldn't help but
He was greatly surprised. He quickly stood up and said strangely: "Girl, how did you... come in?"
When Xia Xun heard about the girl, he thought that the woman had come to his door last night. He stood up suddenly, turned around excitedly and took a look, and was stunned. After two years, he couldn't even call her by her name.
She came up, but there were so many wonderful stories between the two of them, how could they forget her appearance? Xia Xun was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered her name: "Xiaoying!"
The light in the tent was darker than outside. Ulan Tuya didn't notice Xia Xun's appearance at all. After she came in, she saw Zhao Zijin standing up from behind the case and immediately said: "Your Majesty the Imperial Envoy?"
He quickly put away his shock, but even for just a moment, it still aroused Ulantuya's vigilance. Ulantuya glanced at him and her body was shocked.
Xia Xun grew a beard, but it was not a problem to have a beard. Xia Xun was already old enough to grow a beard. In ancient times, for men with beards, beards were also an essential part of a man's appearance. When he opened the history books, he wrote about outstanding emperors and generals.
When a person's appearance is described, usually only three words are used to describe it: beauty. If this person has a beautiful beard, then there will be an additional description in the history books: "beautiful beard".
The man started to grow a beard at the age of twenty-eight. Xia Xun has already reached the age where he should grow a beard. However, he has been running around outside for the past two years. He does not have this habit himself, and no one else reminds him. Xia Xun finds it troublesome.
He always has to be clean and tidy. After returning to Beijing this time, when people saw that he had not yet grown a beard, people often expressed concern: Can he not grow a beard? My brother knows a famous doctor who specializes in treating...
Even Ming'er often reminded him, so Xia Xun had no choice but to grow a little beard on his lips to cope with the situation.
But Ulan Tuya didn't know this. When she thought about it, Yang Xu should have grown a beard at his current age. As for what the beard looks like, it depends on the person. Having a beard does not mean that he is not Xia Xun.
The reason why Ulan Tuya hesitated was only because of Xia Xun's clothes. He was wearing the clothes of a guard. This was the reason why Ulan Tuya thought she had seen the wrong person.
Xia Xun secretly complained that no one should have recognized him in Wala. It was true that there was no "confidant" anywhere in the world. If he went to a place like Biesebali, he would meet Yu Jian who wanted his life.
, now I came to Wala, and met Sakura again who wanted his life.
Xiao Ying looked at Xia Xun steadily, her eyes getting weirder and weirder. Although Xia Xun's appearance was slightly different due to his beard, Xiao Ying's impression of him was stronger than anything else even though she had only been with him for a short time.
Everyone is profound, how can they forget?
Sakura asked hesitantly: "You...are you?"
Xia Xun coughed and said, "My name is Zhu Dazhuang. Is this my mother-in-law Ning De?"
"What?"
Xiaoying was dumbfounded, and Zhao Zijin was also dumbfounded: "Why did Mr. Guo suddenly have his tongue curled up and speak in Suzhou dialect?"
Xiaoying asked again. Xia Xun was still polite and elegant, with a curled tongue and a mouthful of Suzhou dialect, but the thickness of his voice naturally changed.
Xiaoying looked at him suspiciously, as if she still hadn't resolved her doubts. Zhao Zijin vaguely understood that the Duke was deliberately concealing his identity. It was strange. Did the Duke actually recognize this girl?
Zhao Zijin was suspicious and hurriedly came to the rescue: "This is my guard, named Zhu Dazhuang. Girl, do you know him?"
Xiaoying's eyes flickered slightly, but she still stared at Xia Xun, but said: "I don't recognize him!" Xia Xun immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Zhao Zijin quickly asked: "Girl, how did you break in? What do you want to see me for?"
Xiaoying let go of Xia Xun, turned to Zhao Zijin and said: "I'm afraid there will be uninvited guests coming to disturb me soon, so I will get straight to the point! Imperial envoy, you are here to investigate the issue of the Great Khan of Wala, right?"
Zhao Zijin's eyes lit up and he said, "Yes, so what?"
Xiaoying took a breath and said: "If you continue to investigate like this, you can't even hope to find out. People here have to rely on the three kings of Wala to live their lives. Even if they are dissatisfied with them, how can they tell you? Even if you find out, how can you find out?
How to obtain confirmation? I can tell you whether what you are investigating is true or false, and I can also provide you with two witnesses. Based on their identities, what they say is enough evidence for your crusade against Wala."
Zhao Zijin leaned forward and said eagerly: "Seriously? Say it quickly!"
Sakura said: "However, I have two conditions. If you can meet them, I will cooperate with you!"
Zhao Zijin asked urgently: "What are the conditions?"
Xiaoying said: "The first thing is to bring those two important witnesses to Daming. Otherwise, they will die and they will never dare to testify for you! But I keep my words in mind, because of their identities
It’s special, it’s not easy to take them out of the grassland.”
Zhao Zijin frowned and thought, nodded sharply and said: "Since they are to be used as witnesses, of course they must be rescued. Don't worry, I have my own means! What is this second condition?"
Sakura puffed up her chest and said, "The second thing is, I also want to go with you. Not only do I want to go with you, but... you also want to do me a favor!"
Zhao Zijin said: "What can I help you with?"
Xiao Ying said: "Help me find a person who betrays my heart!"
Zhao Zijin was stunned and wondered: "Ah? A heartless person? Girl... there is a lover in my Central Plains?"
"Exactly!"
Listening next to Xia Xun, there was a vague feeling of something bad.
Xiaoying has a lover in the Central Plains? Isn't her fiancé Abjia, the son of Taishi Arutai? Could it be that she has already had a lover in the past two years and abandoned her? Prairie women have no sense of morality, and her husband is dead.
Remarrying is a very common thing, let alone her fiancé. She is young and beautiful, and it is common for her to find a good person, but... But why do I always feel that something is not good?
Zhao Zijin breathed a sigh of relief and said: "This couldn't be simpler. However, you have to know his name, surname, and place of origin. Otherwise, I will be famous all over the world. Haha, it will be difficult to find him!"
Sakura smiled strangely and said, "Don't worry, sir. Not only do I know his name and place of origin, I also know his official position!"
Zhao Zijin was stunned again and lost his voice: "Is he an official?"
"Yes, he was an official in your Ming Dynasty, but he always abandoned me. He made me..."
Sakura sighed as she spoke, as if she was about to cry.
"It's over! It's broken! This girl is still suspicious of me, she is cheating!"
Xia Xun immediately knew that Xiaoying was still testing his identity. When he was in Liaodong, Xiaoying was by his side, gentle and delicate, like a little sheep, but it was all an act! The woman on the grassland was fierce and bold,
How can she be so delicate, so he treated her like a beggar, and even stepped into a tiger's den with the intention of assassinating her, and repeatedly seduced her. It can be seen that she is daring and bold in her style. She will not mind anymore.
It would be weird to make a play!
Xia Xun quickly winked at Zhao Zijin, but unfortunately...it was completely useless.
Zhao Zijin's spirit of gossip has already been burning brightly: an official from the Central Plains had a lifelong private engagement with a beautiful woman from the grassland, and then... it must have been that the family had arranged for another good match, or perhaps he disliked the other woman's identity as a grassland woman.
I just abandoned him, this story... Wow haha... It would be best if this official is a Beijing official, an official I recognize, then it will be fun!
Zhao Zijin didn't bother to look at Xia Xun at all, and immediately asked with excitement: "What is his surname, and what is his official position?"
Xiaoying said word by word: "His surname is Yang Mingxu, he has the title of Duke, and he was the governor of Liaodong in the Ming Dynasty!"
"ah?"
Zhao Zijin immediately stood up, bulged his eyes, opened his mouth wide, like an extra-large toad, and looked at Xia Xun in surprise. This was his subconscious action. Even if he saw Xia Xun's signal in advance, he might not be able to do it.
He had to take his time, not to mention he didn't see Xia Xun's signal at all.
Xia Xun had one eye closed, the corner of his mouth was crooked, and he kept a winking expression. He slowly raised his two hands and suddenly covered his face.
When Zhao Zijin saw Xia Xun's expressions and movements, he no longer had any doubts in his heart. He looked at Xia Xun sympathetically, then looked at Xiaoying sympathetically, and then sighed sympathetically.
Xia Xun slowly put down his hand, still making the final struggle, and said: "Little mother-in-law, you are just talking nonsense, you are going to be punished by Shatou!"
Xiaoying slowly turned to him, her pretty face tilted slightly, and said teasingly: "Straighten your tongue before you talk to me! Yang Xu, Mr. Yang!"
Xia Xun knew she couldn't pretend anymore, so she could only sigh and glared at Zhao Zijin fiercely.
Zhao Zijin misunderstood again and hurriedly said, "The Duke of Gou'e is fishing for ducks. Alas, I can't help you because of the situation." He avoided it and said, "I'd better talk to my little lady!"
"
Xia Xun's nose almost turned crooked: "You idiot, you still speak Suzhou dialect to me. Are you very naughty?"
Zhao Zijin walked out happily, being able to share the Duke's little secret. He felt that his relationship with the Duke had suddenly become much closer.
Xia Xun and Xiaoying were the only two people left in the big tent. The two stood facing each other for a long time. Xiaoying suddenly said: "Mahamu will probably be here soon!"
Xia Xun said: "If you want to kill me, I'm afraid you can't count on him. Miss Xiaoying, to tell you the truth, if I find Tuo Tuo Bu Hua now, Mahamu would rather kill him and apologize to the Ming Dynasty than dare to
Lift a finger from me!"
Sakura said angrily: "You...are sure that I want to kill you?"
Xia Xun asked curiously: "You won't kill me?"
Sakura said bitterly: "Even if I want to kill you, I will only do it myself and never do it to others!"
Xia Xun smiled and said: "If that happens, I'm afraid you will never have a chance!"
Sakura was very angry and said: "People make mistakes, so don't be too confident!"
Xia Xun said: "Haha, okay, then Yang will wait and see!"
Sakura said angrily: "Do you want to quarrel with me, or do you want to do the big things your emperor has assigned you?"
Xia Xun said with emotion: "Of course it's a big deal. Who is the witness you are talking about? You..." Xia Xun stared at Xiaoying's pouty red mouth and suddenly realized: "The witness is the woman from yesterday?
The girl in dance clothes last night was..."
Sakura's beautiful big eyes widened, [Baidu Jinyi Night Post Bar provides the first error-free text] A thrilling blush immediately appeared on her pretty and fair face: "Were you that person last night?"
Xia Xun also said: "So that person is you?"
"asshole!"
Xiaoying screamed in shame and kicked Xia Xun on the ankle, causing Xia Xun to scream "ouch" in pain.
The corners of Sakura's lips curled up, and she said with a half-smile, "It's really unpleasant to scream. Don't you know how to scream?"
