Chapter 5 Visitors
In the morning, several little sparrows who got up early kept chirping. Because of yesterday's incident, Chu Yang, who had not slept well all night, got up early this morning.
"Ha ha!"
The lawn of the yard reminds me of the sound of morning exercise.
"Who? A good dream early in the morning. Chu Zhuang was dressed in his pajamas and walked towards the toilet.
"Huh? Third brother?"
Following the sound I heard, I saw a teenager in red squatting on the lawn, punching hard. His beautiful little face was red, and his dark hair was also covered with a layer of white frost.
"Three." Chu Zhuang was about to scream, but he felt that a big hand covered his mouth in time.
"Let him go." Chu Yuesheng let go and said.
"Oh" Chu Zhuang's face was full of doubts, and he didn't know why.
After breakfast, the three brothers talked boredly, but at this time, they only heard a sissy outside shouting "Holy Edict!"
"My minister, take the order!" Chu Yuesheng quickly came out with his two younger brothers and said respectfully.
"According to the emperor's transportation, the imperial edict said: Guests from the Western Regions came to our dynasty to show the sincerity and hospitality of our heavenly empire and the care of our friends. We specially held this banquet and a big banquet for the ministers. General Chu was specially invited to come to Zijin Palace for a banquet. Please arrive at noon without delay. I admire this." The old eunuch finally finished reading the edict with a long tail.
"Hangtray, your Majesty!" The three brothers shouted sincerely, but only they knew what they thought.
Chu Yuesheng got up and took the imperial edict in his hand and asked with a smile, "Eunuch Wei, these two are the younger brothers in my family. I don't know if it's possible to come out to see the world this time." After saying that, Chu Yuesheng handed the old eunuch a piece of gold ingot and glanced back.
These old guys are all human elite in the palace. At present, they understand what Chu Yuesheng means and laugh twice, "Since they are led by General Chu, how can your majesty refute General Chu's face?"
"Hehe. Duke Wei is flattered. Chu Yuesheng said with a smile.
"Ye." The old eunuch was so arrogant that he spoke kindly and turned around with several little eunuchs and left.
"Brother, look at his bird! "En'" Chu Yang learned from the eunuch's tone and said strangely.
"Hey! He is a big celebrity around the emperor. He can't be offended. The eunuchs are so undeveloped. Chu Yuesheng smiled and explained.
"Come on! Prepare the horse!" Chu Yuesheng said to the servants around him and turned into the room with his two younger brothers.
"Wow! Brother, is this the general's official uniform? So handsome!" Chu Zhuang said enviously.
"Stop musing, go get dressed. You must go to the palace at noon. Go!" Chu Yuesheng pushed Chu Zhuang and said seriously.
Chu Yang and Chu Zhuang quickly sat down and dressed up the two beautiful little maids.
On the street at the gate of the general's mansion, three horses left three paths of smoke and went away.
"Brother, is this the palace?" I saw a huge courtyard from afar. The two guys who went out for the first time were full of novelty here. They kept chirping and almost blew up Chu Yuesheng's head.
"It's almost there. Don't talk nonsense. This is not home!" Chu Yuesheng strictly ordered.
Three big horses in a huge courtyard, no! It's a city.
The three turned over and got off the horse, and several little eunuchs in gray clothes quickly led the horses down.
"Let's go, don't look." As soon as they disembed the horse, the two guys' hands began to rub the golden pillars of the courtyard door and were picked up by Chu Yuesheng's twisted ears one by one.
The little eunuch on one side was puzzled that all the officials came to the palace. He had never seen such a thing.
Zijin Palace is generally the place where a ceremony or the empress dowager holds a banquet to celebrate her birthday. This time, the emperor actually held a banquet here from the Western Regions, which is really a proof of the great power of Qin and Han.
The holy aim is to pass through many doors and walk without knowing how many steps. In short, Chuyang and Chuzhuang were dizzy. Then they saw a gorgeous and impeccable palace and looked up at the three dragons flying and phoenixes. In the sun, the big character "Zijin Palace" flashed with thousands of golden light
As soon as I entered the hall, I saw dozens of round tables placed in the hall, with some people sitting on it. It seemed that the people had not yet arrived.
The three brothers casually found a table and sat down, waiting for the auspicious time.
After a while, three old guys who looked at the slightly older came in. Chu Yuesheng's eyes lit up and whispered, "The one in the middle is Prime Minister Li, Li Yan, and the one you beat Li Zhan is his son."
Chu Zhuang looked at the old man and said indifferently, "I dare to fight him!"
The two were speechless.
As time approached, the hall was soon full of people, and Chu Yang had no choice but to be squeezed behind Chu Yuesheng. The emperor's banquet did not intend to have extra people to come, and Chu Yuesheng could not let other ministers give up their seats to his two younger brothers.
With a heavy and passionate horn, Qin Han's leader finally appeared.
Then, three people with slightly different looks from the natives appeared behind the emperor. The most eye-catching of these three people is undoubtedly the veiled slim woman among the three.
The little woman is dressed in a white gauze, embroidered with an unknown flower on a white gauze. Miao Miao moved in, showing the charm and delicateness of the woman, like a spring breeze, which makes people feel relaxed and happy.
Chu Yang was also stunned. This little woman is really the best.
After the red tape, the banquet began. After three rounds of drinking, the woman from the Western Regions stood up and said, "Your Majesty, Lilith of Taru in the Western Regions has met your majesty."
At a high level, the emperor laughed and said, "Princess Lilith, if you have anything to say."
"Yes, Your Majesty! This year, there was a drought in Taru and there was no harvest, but the emperor did not want to be tax-free, so we want to make a bet with your country. Lilith's voice was so beautiful that she spoke slowly.
"Oh, bet, let's talk about it." The emperor said unhappily with his face.
"We brought three questions today. If someone in your country answers, we are willing to pay five times the tribute. If we can't answer, your country will be exempted from five years of tribute." Lilith's resolute words changed the weakness just now.
"Haha!" The emperor laughed, "How can I, a large empire in Qin and Han, be afraid of you? I have taken this bet!"
"Haha!" The ministers also laughed, and even Chu Yuesheng was also Guan Er.
"Good! Thank you, Your Majesty!" Lilith clapped her hand, and a person came in from outside the door, holding a plate covered with red cloth.
Everyone's incomparable doubts, even the emperor is also leaning on his head, I don't know why.
Lilith stretched out her jade hand, untied the red cloth, and whispered, "Your Majesty, this question is a problem that has not been solved in our Taru for countless years."
"Ty!" The emperor said loudly.
"Yes, Your Majesty! In Taru, the terrain is very high, there is no water under the well, the terrain is ups and downs, and it is more difficult to repair canals, resulting in people relying on the sky to eat, and the sky should only starve to death. If Your Majesty can solve this problem, we will lose. Lilith talked gently and said the first question.
"This!" The emperor frowned and looked like a group of ministers.
For a while, there was a lot of discussion in the hall, and no one expected that Princess Lilith was so smart. The first question was to give the emperor an army, unable to go up or down.
In Qin and Han, there are no capable people who can repair canals, but the price of repairing canals for them is higher than that of a year's tribute. However, if they are not repaired, it means that the Qin Han Dynasty Empire can't even answer the questions of small countries. What's the face?
This Taru country is really heaven and earth this time. Whether they answer this question or not, they will win.
Suddenly, an old man stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I don't think this question is counted. This is what they are trying to make it difficult."
Chu Yang's eyes narrowed and his heart was unhappy. This person was Prime Minister Li. If he lost, he lost, but he played tricks here. Chu Yang directly looked at this person in his heart and demoted him.
"Not included? Ha ha.. I didn't expect that the Prime Minister of the Qin and Han Empire would still cheat. Lilith taught me. Lilith laughed loudly, and the girl's straightforward satire made the hall unable to do it, and her face was burning.
"Princess Lilith, we lost this question." The emperor weighed it over and over again. After all, there are still two questions below. Now if you agree, the gains will outweigh the losses.
"Okay, worthy of your majesty, come here! The second question!"
This time, there is still a person holding a plate covered with red cloth.
The corners of Lilith's mouth are raised, as if he has strong confidence to win this question.
lifted the red cloth, picked up a piece of paper, looked around the ministers in the hall, and smiled.
"This second question is a question that no one has calculated the result so far in our Taru country!"
