Last night, Sun Simiao entered a state of trance after he began to meditate on the Chongxu Sutra, and he slowly woke up only when he was ugly.
It is a pity that Sun Simiao still failed to truly enter the innate Dzogchen.
Therefore, he gave Sun Simiao permission today not to go to court to discuss matters, but to return home to continue his enlightenment.
But what Li Mo didn't know was that it was this unintentional move that made many ministers look worried.
"Do you have any plans to report?"
After some salutes, when all the courtiers stood up, Li Mo spoke.
"Your Majesty, I have my heart set on this!"
As soon as Li Mo finished speaking, Pei Min bowed and stood up.
"Oh? Pei Qing, please speak!"
"Your Majesty, since the news about your Majesty's upcoming wedding, people from various states and vassal states have expressed their intention to come to Ruyang to congratulate Your Majesty. Therefore, I feel that we should find a capable person to take charge of this matter!"
Pei Min said hurriedly.
"Huh? Is there something wrong with the etiquette department?"
Li Mo's expression changed.
All matters involving grand ceremonies are handled by the Minister of Rites, and the Minister of Rites is a talent selected by Master Zeng, so he should be able to handle this matter.
"Your Majesty, I second your opinion!"
As if they had already discussed it, Master Zeng and Dan Qiusheng stood up at the same time, not forgetting to glance at Pei Min.
"Oh, if that's the case, then who does Pei Min think is more appropriate to be in charge of this matter?"
Seeing this, Li Mo didn't think too much.
After all, there is some truth in what Pei Min said. The Minister of Rites is a civil official. There will definitely be various envoys and other warriors coming to Ruyang this time. Pure civil officials are indeed a bit overwhelmed.
You need to find someone who can be both civil and military, and the force value cannot be low.
"I think Lord Sun Simiao is worthy of this position!"
Pei Min said again hurriedly.
"Lord Sun? No, he has other things to do. In my opinion, how about leaving this matter to Lord Wang Wei?"
After hearing the candidates given by Pei Min, Li Mo immediately waved his hand.
Sun Simiao is now in the critical period of breakthrough. How could he delay his cultivation progress because of something like this?
"this......"
Pei Min, Master Zeng and others immediately looked at each other.
They originally wanted to take this opportunity to get some more credit for Sun Simiao in order to reward him, but who would have thought that their escape would be blocked with just one word.
Wang Wei is originally the governor of Ruyang and is in charge of everything in Ruyang City. He is also a late-stage innate master. It does sound more suitable than Sun Simiao.
"Your Majesty is wise!"
After returning to their senses, the three of them could only bow and accept the order.
"Now that this matter has been decided, I wonder if other members of the Qing family have any plans to report it?"
Li Mo, who was sitting on the dragon throne, didn't know what the ministers were thinking, so he asked again.
"Your Majesty, I have my heart to tell you!"
At this moment, General Xue Song stood up.
"Oh? Xue Qing, please speak!"
Li Mo was a little surprised to hear that Xue Song had a book.
Now the Dragon Kingdom has great momentum. After taking over the Zhou Dynasty and Daliang in succession, the country's strength is even stronger. Especially in terms of war, almost no Fan Kingdom or small vassal state dares to attack the Dragon Kingdom.
"Your Majesty, late yesterday, a letter came from General Qin Fang of Zhenxi, saying that he had received a letter of credence from a Western country."
Xue Song said hurriedly.
These brothers have each taken on their own positions since they entered the middle stage of Xiantian.
Qin Fang led 300,000 troops and stationed them in Dunhuang County, the westernmost part of the Dragon Kingdom, and was named the General of Zhenxi.
Cheng Ruobing led 100,000 troops and was stationed in Fanyang County. He was named the General of Zhenbei.
Luo Yun led 150,000 troops and stationed them in Jiannan County. He was named the General of Zhennan.
Luo Kong led 150,000 troops and garrisoned them in the original Xiangyang. He was named the General of Zhendong.
"Oh? Credentials from Western countries? But the countries in the Western Regions?"
Li Mo raised his eyebrows.
This was the first time he heard about the Western Kingdom.
"It's a letter of credence from a king named Yuhua Prefecture. He said that His Majesty's wedding is a blessing to the world, so he wanted to personally lead a delegation to Ruyang to congratulate you."
"Yuhua Prefecture?"
It's okay not to hear it. When he heard the name, Li Mo was stunned.
This name seemed so familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere but couldn't remember it for a while. What made him even more surprised was that a country in the Western Regions was so well-informed about the news and would even be interested in his wedding.
"Well, since I'm a visitor, I'll accept it. It just so happens that I can see the beauty of the countries in the Western Regions."
After coming back to his senses, Li Mo waved his hand.
If you can't remember, then meet the king of Yuhua Prefecture. If the Dragon Kingdom wants to continue to be strong, it will definitely be inseparable from the countries in the Western Regions. It may not be a bad thing for the two sides to do business.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
.......
In this way, half an hour later, after all matters were agreed upon, the court dispersed.
"Master Prime Minister, what should we do now?"
However, as soon as they left the palace, Pei Min and Li Taibai chased after them and came to Master Zeng and Dan Qiusheng.
"That is, Mr. Sun did not come to court today. He said he was ill. I am afraid he has a grudge!"
Li Taibai followed.
Yesterday, after discussing at Lingxiao Pavilion, they went to the Prime Minister's Mansion, and this was the scene in the court today.
"Well, your Majesty may not be aware of it, but we can't ignore it, so... we will go to the Sun Mansion later to see Mr. Sun!"
Master Zeng sighed slightly.
There are some things they can only give vague suggestions to His Majesty.
Now I just hope to be able to untie Sun Simiao's "heart knot" in person.
"Okay! It's even better if there are two prime ministers here!"
When they heard that Master Zeng and Dan Qiusheng were also going, Pei Min and Li Taibai were overjoyed. After they got into the official sedan, they went straight to the Sun Mansion.
...
Nowadays, Ruyang City is no longer what it used to be. Not only are the outer city now full of blue brick pavilions, but even many restaurants and shops have begun to be built outside the city. The three rings have become four rings.
After several people arrived at Sun Mansion, they had already burned a few sticks of incense.
"What do you mean these adults are here for? But there is something going on in the court?"
Sun Mansion, lobby,
Looking at the several important ministers of the Dragon Kingdom who suddenly came to visit, Sun Simiao looked condensed.
Just now, he was meditating on the Chongxu Scripture in the inner room when he heard the medicine boy say that the two prime ministers and several pavilion masters from the Dragon Kingdom were visiting in person. He thought something big had happened.
I arrived at the lobby without even having time to change my clothes.
"Master Sun, it's okay for me to come here! It's just that there were rumors yesterday..."
look at each other,
Master Zeng did not hide anything and immediately told the whole story.
"If Mr. Sun really has a grudge against this, I would like to leave and ask your Majesty to give up his official title. I only hope that Mr. Sun can continue to stay in the Dragon Kingdom."
"Hahaha, why are you here here, sir?"
Hearing this, Sun Simiao couldn't help laughing.
"Master Sun, you..."
"My lords, you are overthinking. Am I the kind of person who cares about fame and wealth? Your Majesty will treat me with kindness and help you. Not to mention that Your Majesty has asked me to be in charge of the medical department. Even if I am a gatekeeper in front of the city gate, I will not hesitate to do so.
!”
Stop laughing, Sun Simiao said immediately.
Li Mo first supported him in promoting medical skills and now gave him the Chongxu Zhenjing. It is not an exaggeration to say that he was reborn with kindness.
"That way, that way... I'll be rest assured..."
Master Zeng, Dan Qiusheng and others all breathed a long sigh of relief.
But just when Master Zeng wanted to say something more, the medicine boy suddenly appeared at the door of the lobby again.
"Reporting to Master, there is someone outside the house asking to see you!"
