Yingtian City in the heavy rain is like a ferocious beast, standing majestically between heaven and earth.
Diao Xianjie, the envoy to comfort the army and people in Ailao, and Chen Tianping, the grandson of Annan's Chen Dynasty, said many words on the way there, many of which could not be known to outsiders and could only be agreed upon between them.
But the moment they saw this city, they almost simultaneously forgot every word they said during the long journey.
Because of the shock, I lost my mind for a moment.
In Diao Xianjie's eyes, the original barbaric spirit disappeared in an instant.
The uneasiness and cunning in Chen Tianping's eyes also disappeared at this moment.
This is the capital of the Ming Dynasty.
They were like children seeing mountains for the first time, looking up.
While looking up, they saw the top of a mountain that almost penetrated the clouds and was higher than the sky.
Looking up turned into an inexplicable fear...

Until their carriage slowly drove into Yingtian Mansion, they couldn't help but turn around and look again.
In the city in the heavy rain, the only sound is the sound of rain.
The majestic rainwater, like a tidal wave, washed away the smooth stone road, trying to leave traces on it.
But no matter how hard the rain works, they only sweep through it for a short time, and then drain into the ditches on both sides of the stone road, turning into river water that will soon flow into the river outside the city...
The heavy rain is brutal and seems to destroy the world.
The water in the river is gentle, nourishing all things and giving birth to life.
In the carriage, Chen Tianping and Diao Xianji stared greedily at the street scene in the capital.
The reason why I am greedy is because I have never seen such a prosperous city. The streets, the pavilions, the pavilions, the shops...
And then their greedy eyes were full of envy.
Under the eaves in the rainstorm, people wearing decent clothes are enjoying the rainstorm comfortably, with a pot of tea and a book in hand...
The child wearing a gold and silver collar was hiding in his mother's arms. Regardless of his mother's obstruction, he stubbornly stretched out his hand under the eaves, as if teasing the downpour.
I also saw three or five people sitting under the shed that seemed to be crumbling at any time. Despite the rain and thunder, they still guarded the charcoal stove, cooking meat, drinking wine, talking and laughing...

"Both of you!"
The sound of the carriage entering and leaving made Diao Xianjie and Chen Taiping turn their heads at the same time.
He Guangyi's expressionless face appeared outside the car window.
The rainwater flowed down his raincoat and wetted his flying fish suit, but it made the color of the flying fish suit even more vivid.
"Prince Annan..." He Guangyi hesitated for a moment and thought of a reasonable title.
"Don't dare!" Chen Taiping stood up in the carriage in panic, but he didn't want to hit his head on the roof of the carriage with a thud. "My lord, just call me by your name!" He said with a bitter smile and laughed at himself, "The man who subjugated the country.
, how dare you call yourself a king and grandson!"
"Your accommodation is arranged at the reception hotel in the Lifan Courtyard, just in front!" He Guangyi said in a businesslike tone, "Everything is available in the hotel. If you have any needs, just ask the people in the hotel directly. But there are
Open your mouth and do your best to be satisfied!"
"Don't dare!" Chen Taiping hurriedly waved his hands and said, "Those who have subjugated their country will not abandon the country of their parents in the Ming Dynasty, as long as they can be given a place to stay in the next place!"
As he said this, he suddenly woke up with a start.
He opened his mouth and asked, "May I ask this great sir, don't I and Ambassador Xuanwei live in the same place?"
He Guangyi looked at the lean but tough Diao Xianji, "Mr. Xuanwei, your residence is in another place..." After saying that, he paused and a smile appeared on his face, "You are
I, the envoy entrusted by the Ming Dynasty, am also the lord of Ailao, so I should be received by the Ministry of Rites and treated with state courtesy!"
Diao Xianjie was silent for a moment, glanced at Chen Tianping, and then asked in stiff Chinese, "When can I see the Great Emperor?"
"It should be soon!" He Guangyi responded vaguely, and then waved his hand behind him.
Four royal guards appeared outside the carriage holding umbrellas.
Chen Tianping glanced at Diao Xianji reluctantly, then got out of the car while holding the door, seemingly weak, and stood under the umbrella, tightening his shoulders.
"Let's go!" He Guangyi said, "Let's go." I don't know whether he said it to Chen Tianping or to the driver of the carriage.
Anyway, after finishing speaking, Chen Taiping, escorted by Jin Yiwei, entered the pavilion with his entourage.
The carriage started again and started moving in the other direction.

Boom!
Huge thunder sounded violently behind the clouds, and the layers of dark clouds trembled.
But the next second, the picture of the expected thunder tearing apart the clouds and letting the sunshine return to the sky and the earth did not appear.
Those clouds just moved, and then continued to vent their violent storms.
This muffled thunder is like the fart in the crotch when the large intestine is dry. It has no other purpose except to make the crotch expand.
He Guangyi changed into clean Feiyu clothes and stood carefully under the eaves of Qianqing Palace. He lowered his head and looked at the toes of his boots that were wet by the rain.
This was the first time he had met the emperor alone since he was reprimanded.
To be precise, it was Li Jinglong's intention to give him such an opportunity to meet the emperor alone. Because Li Jinglong gave him the job of escorting the emperor's grandson of the Chen Dynasty in Annan and the consolation envoy to the soldiers and civilians in Ailao, and then sent the two
After he ascended the throne, the emperor would definitely summon him for questioning.
Footsteps sounded slightly.
The bastard frowned, carefully avoiding the water on the ground, and then spoke five steps away, "What is your command, the emperor uploads it!"
"Yes!" He Guangyi bowed again and strode forward.
But before he could step forward, the bastard had already turned around, his back to him.
"Thank you, Mr. Wang!" He Guangyi looked at the back of the bastard and said.
The bastard didn't say anything, didn't stop, and didn't make any sound.

"Everyone has settled down?"
In the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Yunxi was sitting on the Arhat bed, holding his only daughter, Princess Yaya of Changchun, who had just been awarded the title of princess, in his arms.
Yaya was very naughty and kept scratching on the table with a brush that was not dipped in ink.
Not only did Zhu Yunxi not stop him, but he swayed like a human-shaped cradle with his daughter in his arms.
"Back to the emperor, everything has been settled! The princes and grandsons of the Chen Dynasty of Annan are staying at the Guest House of the Lifan Courtyard, and Diao Xiangui, the envoy of the Ailao Army and People's Xuanfu, is staying at the Prince's Hall of the Ministry of Rites!"
Zhu Yunxi raised his head and looked directly at He Guangyi, "What do you think of these two people?"
He Guangyi hurriedly went through the impressions of these two people in his mind, and then said in a deep voice, "Annan Prince Chen Tianping, although his behavior is polite, his expression and body are frightened, and he always thinks of himself as a man who has subjugated his country! But!
In my opinion, his fear and helplessness may be intentional!"
"No!" Zhu Yunxi nodded.
How could the grandson of the subjugated emperor who came to the Ming Dynasty seek help win sympathy if he didn't pretend to be pitiful?
"As for the unruly envoys of Ailao Xuanwei!" He Guangyi said again, "He is a rough and arrogant man with a bit of wildness!" After saying that, he paused and added, "Barbarians from the border areas don't know etiquette. He is anxious to see you.
Your Majesty, you must also want something from me, the Ming Dynasty!"
"Hmm!" Zhu Yunxi nodded again.
"These two people came to the capital this time, and they were accompanied by about fifty servants! They also brought seven or eight boxes, which according to the minister's opinion, should be property!" He Guangyi continued, "On the way into the city, they were
There was muttering in the carriage for a long time..." He then kowtowed and apologized, "I am too stupid to understand what they are saying!"
"It's not your fault!" Zhu Yunxi smiled faintly, "They deliberately don't want you to know, so naturally they speak in words that only they understand!"
As he said that, he weighed Yaya in his arms twice.
"Jinyiwei's secret agent in Annan hooked up with a loyal minister of the Chen Dynasty in Annan, Pei...?"
He Guangyi immediately said, "Pei Boxi... was a member of Zhongshushe in the Annan Chen Dynasty!" After saying that, he paused, waiting for the emperor to speak.
Without waiting for the sound, he immediately continued, "This man is loyal to the Chen Dynasty and has cried many times to come to the capital of the Ming Dynasty and imitate Shen Baoxu in entering the court to ask for help from the Ming Dynasty!"
"Let him come, come quickly!" Zhu Yunxi said, "Right away!"
"According to the decree, I will make arrangements now!"
"Father..." Yaya suddenly said in a milky voice, "I want to watch a show!"
"Haha!" Zhu Yunxi hugged his daughter and changed his posture, "Then my father will let the troupe come into the palace to perform for you!"
