Chapter 929

in the palace.

After finishing the memorial at hand, Qi Heng got up and stretched his muscles while asking Lai Fu who was waiting on the side.

"Laifu, tell me, which side will come first, the envoy of Suzaku Kingdom or the envoy of Qingqiu Kingdom?"

"This... this old slave feels bad."

"You old guy, you still play Tai Chi with me? Let you guess, just guess one." Qi Heng scolded him with a smile.

"Yes, Your Majesty, then the old slave will guess that the envoy of the Suzaku Kingdom will arrive first."

"Oh? Why is that?"

"This is probably the intuition of the old slave, right? The old slave always feels that the envoy of the Suzaku Kingdom came this time with the purpose of proposing marriage, and there will definitely not be a long delay."

"Well, that makes sense." Qi Heng nodded, and then went to the side table and sat down.

"If you really guess right this time, I will give you a vacation."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your compassion, old slave." Lai Fu knelt down instantly with a face full of emotion.

He is an eunuch, and he has been with His Majesty since he was very young, and his family and friends have rarely seen him.

A few days ago, he accidentally learned the news about his family from elsewhere, and he was a little hesitant.

Although I haven't returned home these years, I always send some money to my family at the beginning.

After learning the news of his parents' death, he also received a letter from his younger brother and some clothes and food.

In the letter, the younger brother expressed his thoughts on him and his gratitude to him for subsidizing the family over the years.

The letter also said that since his father and mother had already been buried in the ground, he was ashamed to continue to accept gifts from his elder brother even though he was a good man.

Let Laifu save the monthly money he earned for himself, as long as the two brothers have correspondence, it will be fine.

Since then, Laifu has only sent a letter to his younger brother at home in about three months to six months.

This has been going on for many years.

But just a few days ago, the letter he received suddenly stated that his brother had passed away.

He was very sad, and suddenly felt that he had no relatives in this world anymore, very lonely and desolate.

Yes, they have aged a little bit under the influence of time.

The old man is not terrible, what is terrible is that he watched his parents, his younger brother leave him one after another.

He is also getting old.

Even His Majesty, who he has been guarding all this time, has changed from an immature child to a wise and mighty middle-aged emperor.

Hey, I only know that time makes people old.

But now when he suddenly heard His Majesty say that, he suddenly felt a sore nose.

Want to go home and have a look?To be honest, he wanted to.

It was originally a luxury for him to go back to his home for a walk before he died.

Who made him just a servant in this huge Bauhinia City?

Although he is someone close to His Majesty, he is still a rootless slave after all.

But now the most honorable Majesty in the Forbidden City actually told him to give him a vacation and give him time to go home and have a look. How can this not make him happy?

His Majesty actually cared about him.

To be so considerate of such a servant as him.

That's great, Lai Fu suddenly felt that it was the greatest blessing in his life to be able to serve such a majesty all the time.

Woohoo, I was so moved that I wanted to cry.

"Okay, I'm crying, I'm going to turn the reward of the holiday into a reward of money."

Hearing what His Majesty said, Laifu quickly wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with his sleeve, and said with a sincere smile.

"Your Majesty, the old slave didn't cry, the old slave just got some sand in his eyes for a moment."

Hey, why is Your Majesty so good?
He was also depressed just now, why did His Majesty let him guess which country's envoy would come first.

Obviously just now when His Majesty was reading the memorial, he was waiting by the side, and there was news from the front in the memorial.

His Majesty even muttered a few words in a low voice at that moment, and he heard them all.

So he said very firmly that His Majesty was deliberately looking for an opportunity to give him a vacation.

Otherwise, why would he be moved to cry.

He has taken care of His Majesty for so many years, how can he not understand His Majesty?
"Heh, you old guy, why don't you go build me a pot of hot tea?"

"Okay, the slave will go now."

Qi Heng, who was sitting in front of the small table, gave a chuckle, and then set his sights on the endgame chessboard on the small table.

It has been at least a few months since he got this endgame chessboard.

In the past few months, whenever he had some time, he would involuntarily sit over and stare at the chessboard.

During this period, he calculated many kinds of moves, but all of them ended in failure.

He even invited many courtiers to visit the endgame board and ask them what they thought.

But until today, no one has been able to solve the chessboard.

This time made Qi Heng a little suspicious, is there a way to solve this so-called endgame chessboard?

Laifu's hot tea came quickly.

After pouring the hot tea, he thoughtfully tested the temperature before handing it to Qi Heng.

"Laifu, Princess Yong'an really agreed to let her daughter go and kiss?"

"Yes." Laifu nodded.

"Well, from this point of view, the appearance of the Bai family is really a blessing for Daqi."

"God bless me Daqi!" Qi Heng couldn't help sighing.

"It's because His Majesty has always had great talents and general plans, focusing on the Cangshan Mountains in the world, being wise and martial, diligent in governing, knowing people and using them well, and truly benefiting the world. He is a generation of sages!"

Hearing Laifu's flattering sound, Qi Heng couldn't help laughing even more heartily.

"It's only you, an old fellow, who dare to speak so shamelessly in front of me."

"Your Majesty deserves these compliments from this old slave, and what this old slave says is from the bottom of his heart." Lai Fu lowered his head and his tone was full of seriousness.

"That's all right, all right, if you're really in a hurry, why not think about how to teach and call out a few apprentices who are handy."

"Otherwise, when you are on vacation, I might not be able to get used to it."

"Don't worry, Your Majesty." Lai Fu assured him.

After all, I've been in the palace for so long, how many little eunuchs who are winking and come to trouble are there?
Before he leaves, he must teach those eunuchs well and hand over all His Majesty's taboos and preferences.

"By the way, did Fu Guogong send an imperial physician to visit the sick?"

"Return to Your Majesty, Imperial Physician Li and Imperial Physician Zhao have been there, and now they are back."

"Huh? How do you say it?"

"The two imperial physicians both said that according to the pulse, Duke Fu was indeed old and in poor health, and fell ill because he was unprepared for a while."

"Oh, I don't believe it's such a coincidence that he got sick." Qi Heng sneered.

As soon as he gave Duke Fu the order to develop the Grand Canal, Duke Fu fell ill right after he followed.

If this is not pretending to be sick, it really cannot be justified.

If he is really in poor health, how can he have the energy to toss about so many things?
"This……"

"Since he is ill, let the two imperial physicians pay more attention to him, and at the same time let people keep a close eye on Fuguo Duke's Mansion."

"If he dares to continue to make moths during his illness, don't blame me for being rude."

When Qi Heng said the last time, there was already a hint of coldness in his tone.

It was very difficult for Daqi Kingdom to be stable. If someone took the opportunity to provoke trouble at this moment, he would definitely not tolerate it.

"Yes."

-

Just as Mr. Laifu guessed, the envoys of Suzaku Kingdom really arrived in the capital before Qingqiu.

Because the leader of the mission of Suzaku Kingdom this time is the new emperor Feng Feibai of Suzaku Kingdom, and they came for the purpose of making peace and friendship, so Qi Heng specially ordered the sixth prince to lead people to meet the mission.

The sixth prince, Qi Song, got up early to get ready, and then led the officials from the Ministry of Rites, Honglu Temple officials, and the imperial guards in the capital to greet him within the time limit.

They went to the post station in the capital that specially received foreign missions.

Before Qi Song and the others arrived at the station, they got the news that the Suzaku Mission had entered the west gate of the capital.

Qi Song who got the latest news was not necessarily flustered, he still looked calm and calm.

He also spoke lightly to calculate the time.

"It takes almost a stick of incense for us to reach the station from here, but it takes more time for the Vermilion Bird Mission to go from the west gate to the station than a stick of incense."

"We have plenty of time and don't need to be too anxious."

"Yes!"

Because today is the day when the Suzaku mission comes to Beijing, all roads in the capital are controlled by the special Imperial Forest Army.

Including the post station, the officials of Honglu Temple have already arranged it properly.

The common people had heard the news for a long time, and they stood on both sides of the road and looked towards the middle of the road.

Today's life is peaceful, and everyone always likes to find some gossip or new things to discuss when they are free.

No, just after the bearded missions from Xianbei left, the Suzaku mission came again.

Can they not come to join in the fun?
I heard that the mission of the Suzaku Kingdom came this time with the purpose of seeking marriage.

They want to see what the Suzaku Kingdom's Majesty looks like, and which family's daughter he will marry.

It must not be an ordinary person who can make His Majesty from another country come to propose marriage in person, right?
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

"Where is it? Where is the legendary emperor of Suzaku Kingdom? What does he look like?"

"Don't squeeze, I didn't see it either. After all, he is the lord of a country, how could he show his face so easily?"

"Isn't it? I don't care, I want to see it, what if I see it."

"I haven't really seen the so-called emperor in my whole life? Come on, let me take a look."

"Don't squeeze, don't squeeze, everyone stand back!" The imperial guards on both sides who maintained order also tried their best.

I never expected it...

When the Suzaku Kingdom mission came, the battle was much bigger than that of Xianbei before, but the number of people who came to see the excitement seemed to be at least twice as many as before, right?

Is it really that good-looking?
Not to mention the road at the moment, even the side of the post station is surrounded by many curious people at the moment.

Qi Song, who had already arrived at the station, heard the latest distance reported by his soldiers, and decided to walk forward so that he could meet with the mission of Suzaku Kingdom.

Anyway, the other party is also an emperor.

The attitude that should be given still needs to be given.

While Qi Song led several ministers forward, there was also a burst of discussion among the crowd kneeling on both sides.

"Did you see it? The one walking in the front is our sixth prince, who is so young but so imposing. He really deserves to be a descendant of the royal family."

"How did I hear that the sixth prince was not favored before? If the prince hadn't had an accident with other princes, wouldn't the sixth prince be allowed to come out?"

"What's the matter? I'm lucky."

"Regardless of luck, as long as the sixth prince is a good man, as wise and powerful as His Majesty today, then I will definitely support him."

"That is, to us people, who is His Majesty is important? As long as we can live a good life and don't increase taxes for us, we will be happier than anything else."

"Is the sixth prince really that good? Isn't it so?"

"What do you mean by that?"

"Do you think that luck alone can make the sixth prince come to this day?"

"Why not?"

"The sixth prince is definitely not as simple as he appears on the surface, he is definitely not simple."

"That's right, haven't you heard of it? Our majestic sixth prince even worshiped a woman from the countryside as his master. What do you think he thinks?"

"What woman? Who is it? Isn't the sixth prince a member of the royal family? There must be many powerful masters in the palace, why do you want to worship a woman as your teacher?"
