There is a black lotus in the deep palace

Chapter 267 Peace Talk
She always feels that she is very similar to herself, but it seems that she is luckier now.

Her parents and elder brother are both in the capital, and beside her is a husband who is quite enamored. Although she is a pearl in the dust, she is still a pearl.

I don't know how many women in the whole world are envious of me. Even the many women in the harem speak sourly when they mention her.

If it weren't for Xia Houjue not being stingy with all kinds of treasures, and the Gao family being extremely strict, and showing both kindness and power, those women would definitely not be as honest as they are now.

Although there was no good beginning for the matter of being a couple for life, it has a good result.

Everyone in the world says Lan Yin Xu Guo, but when it comes to her, Xu Yin Lan Guo, hehe, sounds good too.

"Empress, I'm actually fine to see you, I just want to ask Concubine Li..."

As soon as she said the words, Tang Wanning's heart skipped a beat, and she felt a sense of admiration spontaneously.

'She is just like herself, she really values ​​love and righteousness. '

"Concubine Li is fine, but she missed her relatives when she was seriously ill. One of the great regrets of the concubine's life is that you and the sixth brother did not..." Her voice stopped abruptly, and she did not continue.

And Ansaiah had already burst into tears.

"I'm dissatisfied with what the empress said, Ansaiya missed this matter after all."

"Why? When your Tubo tribe is peaceful in the future, you can be together, and our two countries can even become closer and closer, and have a good relationship forever."

Ansaiya didn't speak any more, just saluted with sobs, turned around and ran away crying.

Tang Wan stared at her back and fell into deep thought.

Her eyes fell through the transparent glass and fell on that petite back, and she didn't come back to her senses until she could no longer see it.

The glazed windows are still pasted with exquisite window grilles cut on New Year's Eve, and the weather outside the windows is groggy, as if it is going to return to cold.

Today is only the tenth day of the first lunar month, winter is not over, spring is coming, it is unlikely to warm up, I am afraid that there are still several gusts of cold air coming.

"Ah!" She sighed and looked away, "It's a pity."

"Master, what's the pity?" Biyue came in with a cup of Baihua honey, which was a tribute from Jiangnan last year.

The color was still light when it came here, so she put it in a jar and stored it in a cool cellar for a whole year. Now this honey is mellow and sweet, and it is the best way to nourish yin and moisten lungs.

"It's nothing." Tang Wanning looked at her room while drinking honey water.

This is the bedroom that Xia Houjue arranged for her according to the appearance of Fengyang Palace. Although it is not as spacious as Fengyang Palace, it is warm and warm.

Especially in a severe winter like now, the up and down of this warm pavilion is so warm that people just want to sleep, Fengyang Palace doesn't have such conditions, even burning charcoal.

After drinking the honey water, Tang Wanning suddenly ordered.

"Go back and put all the things that Prince Jing sent here into the warehouse, and only keep the ones sent by my brother."

There are two people in this world who like to give her little gadgets, one is Third Brother and the other is Xia Houjing.

In the past, she didn't like it stupidly, but every time it was delivered to her, she would accept it as it was ordered, and she didn't know the reason at all.

Thinking about it now... I'm afraid it's not that simple.

She is not sensitive to feelings, and only now realizes that she really felt that she was too stupid at the time.

But fortunately, I still found it, so in the future, see you again, never see you again, no matter how beautiful and exquisite those things are, she will never display them again.

Sure enough, Biyue and Biluo couldn't figure it out.

It was Tang Wanning who gave a reason with a smile: "Didn't my third brother send two more boxes for Chinese New Year this year? Are you going to put those out soon? You have been with me for so long, don't you know that I like the new and dislike the old?"

"I know, I know." Biyue muttered as she tidied up, but Biluo didn't say a word, these two people are really a good couple.

……

After Xia Houjing came back from the Tibetan Ministry, Xia Houjue summoned him into the palace for several days to discuss state affairs.

In those few days, the imperial study room was always closed, and no one was allowed to approach it. Even Tang Wanning didn't know what they were discussing in secret.

After the first month of the lunar year, when the Tubo tribe was not so cold, they sent a messenger to say that they had something important to discuss with the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty.

Xia Houjue immediately expressed his surprise. After concealing a little uneasiness, he waved the messenger to go down.

"Okay, since you have something to do, come here."

The messenger left gracefully, and at the beginning of February, the group of negotiating ministers from the Tubo Department arrived, and everything was expected by Xia Houjue.

When those messengers came to the capital of the Great Xia Dynasty, they lived in the post house where King Khan of the Tubo Tribe lived.

It's ironic to say that there are so many coincidences in this world for people who are treated exactly the same but are completely different.

Xia Houjue hosted a banquet as usual. At the banquet, those people were particularly disrespectful in their speech and actions. They didn't even have a polite word, and there was a bit of complacency in their words.

Xia Houjue didn't poke them, just looked normal, and talked to them with a faint smile, saying what he should say, and laughing what shouldn't be said.

After drinking for three rounds, a group of people with big tongues started talking nonsense.

A person who claimed to be an aide of the National Teacher's Mansion stood up and said carelessly: "Our national teacher said that for the sake of good relations between the two countries, we only need five cities, and nothing else!"

"Hahaha! It's a good deal for one prince to exchange five cities, right? Did the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty also think this deal is a good deal?"

"Our national teacher said, as long as you nod your head, we won't say a word about this matter from the beginning to the end. Let's just hand over the city with one hand and hand over the people with the other."

Xia Houjue was too lazy to say much, and only asked one question.

"Then why don't your national teachers come?"

The group of people laughed together, and some said that our national teacher is resourceful, so of course we have to stay in the Tubo Ministry to take care of the prisoner. If the prisoner escapes, we will lose a lot.

Some also said that it is inconvenient for our national teacher to come here because of his high status, and even said that such a trivial matter is not worth mentioning, and there is no need for the national teacher to come in person.

There was everything to say, but no one told the truth, so Xia Houjue spoke out.

"It's your national teachers who dare not come!"

He didn't reveal his identity, just hung his appetite like this, the group of people made a fuss for a while, and then went on to drink carelessly.

Xia Houjue thought about it and said.

"I agree with this deal, but there is only one condition, that is, your national teacher must come to discuss with me in person, otherwise the negotiation will be avoided."

"Oh, you, you are so bold, you don't even pay attention to our national teacher!"

"That's right, our national teacher is something you can see whenever you want?"

"Our national teacher..." They were already drunk, and the words they said were unbearable.

Xia Houjue was not annoyed, but just listened quietly, occasionally responding with a light smile, but in fact, he really wanted to laugh in his heart, this is simply a bunch of clowns, isn't it?
