Lanling covered the moon

Chapter 213 Replacement

"His Highness Chang Gong is well!"

"Hello, Mr. Wang."

"His Highness Chang Gong, are you safe?"

"Thanks to Master Li, everything is fine."

"His Highness Chang Gong is healed from his injury? Oh, this His Highness is going to march and fight. He must take care of his legs. Don't be sloppy, don't be sloppy!"

"Yes, Master Sima is very right. Chang Gong's leg is already able to get off the ground, but the imperial doctor must be careful, so he has to be so ugly and sit with you adults. Just laugh at me." Zi Mo sat on the wooden wheelchair , exchanged pleasantries with the adults who hadn’t seen each other for several days.

King Gao Changgong of Lanling made great military exploits, won the emperor's trust and favor, and was gentle and respectful, and even lower-ranking officials treated them equally, so he was naturally popular.Moreover, there has never been an open and secret fight for self-interest and power on weekdays. Such a prince, such a general, is naturally admired and loved by everyone in the court.

It was just a short walk from the inner hall of the imperial palace to Jiuhuatai. The ministers who came to the banquet saw the Lanling King who survived the catastrophe and were very enthusiastic, and they rushed to chat with him.Hush and ask for warmth, very caring.Zimo bowed his head and returned the salute one by one, came and went again and again, and when he arrived at Jiuhuatai, there were already many people around him.

The two brothers Duan Yi and Duan Shen came together. Standing in front of the Jiuhua Terrace, they were still thinking about who is so popular with the ministers, and the flowers are so lively.As they approached, Duan Yi saw that it was Gao Changgong who had been taken into the palace by the emperor to recuperate, so he snorted coldly. Eyes are not eyes and nose is not nose.Duan Shen saw that King Lanling in the wheelchair looked good, and smiled knowingly.

"What! Hejian Wang Gao Xiaowan, the eldest son of Emperor Wenxiang, was driven out of Yecheng to do some trivial things like buying and selling. He is Gao Changgong, and he seems to have become the most popular person in the dynasty. They are all trying to curry favor with each other! There is no order between the elder and the younger, and there is no distinction between the son and the son!"

"Brother, don't say that."

"Tsk, eat what's inside and out! When Gao Changgong holds the General Longxiang's Tiger Talisman given by His Majesty the Emperor one day and asks you and me to hand over the military power, you will know how powerful it is!" Duan Yi spat, and he said to The younger brother who couldn't figure out his position hated it deeply.Duan Yi is the eldest son of the Duan family. Thinking of his younger brother Duan Shen who is very popular with his father, Duan Yi wanted to use this excuse to beat his younger brother well, so he said, "If I were that Gao Xiaowan, I would not only drive Gao Changgong out The family's mansion is even more important to be reported to the imperial court. His mother's background and identity are unknown. How can such a person be one of the four generals of the dynasty?! Between the sons and daughters, the difference between high and low is like a cloud and mud! If it weren't for the tall and respectful elder A face that makes people fascinated, how can he have his prestige today?!"

"Why does elder brother have so many biased views on His Royal Highness Lanling? I am deeply convinced of His Highness's ability, and I hope elder brother will not be unfair."

"Hehe, it's not fair? Duan Shen, Duan Shen, I said you were also saved by Gao Changgong once on the Rouran Grassland, and you are itching in your heart!"

"Brother! The more you talk, the more unreasonable it is!" Duan Shen was originally calm, but being teased by his elder brother like this, he couldn't help but put on a straight face.If you take a big step, you have to leave alone.

"Hey, I haven't finished yet! The second young master of your family has been busy training soldiers and horses all day long. Don't you know the excitement these days?" Seeing that his second brother was annoyed, Duan Yi grinned triumphantly This means that the pursuit of victory will also frustrate this deep spirit.

"What's the fuss? Brother, you go outside to gossip with those cronies again? Father doesn't let you cause trouble, you must know how to form a clique for personal gain..."

"All right, all right, take care of yourself! I formed a clique for personal gain? That Gao Changgong didn't know what he did to win people's hearts with his beauty! In court, His Majesty the Emperor praised him as lawless, but outside, What is the name of the envoy from the Song Dynasty, Liu Ziye, he has already become the servant of your Highness Changgong!"

"It's nonsense! It's ridiculous!" Duan Shen blushed for some reason, all the way to the base of his neck.It seemed angry, but also ashamed.

"Hey, are you really thinking about it? You don't know if you have no dignity! I can't tell, second brother, you don't behave in a serious way on weekdays. I didn't expect that your sloppy intestines grew here! Hahahaha What kind of medicine did King Lanling give you? I want to tell my father that you..."

"Oh? Mr. Duan wants to tell General Yu Duan what happened to this king?"

Duan Shen blushed and turned into anger from embarrassment. Unexpectedly, Duan Yi's loud voice attracted the righteous master.Zimo stepped forward slowly, looked up at the two of them, and smiled.

Duan Shen was already in a rage, but when he saw that it was His Highness Chang Gong who came, he was so guilty that his face was about to bleed.

Duan Yi looked at Gao Changgong with malicious intentions, then turned to look at his younger brother with a guilty conscience, just now he wanted to embarrass them in front of the two of them, when his collar was lifted from behind unexpectedly up.

"Who dares to touch me who doesn't know what to do...!" Turning his head, he fell silent for a moment.

"Your old man!" Duan Shao stared wide-eyed, dragged Mr. Duan by his back collar and walked towards the platform, cursing, "It's a shame to make a fool of yourself! I don't know who is making a fuss to provoke others Point and point!"

"Father! What are you scolding me for? It's that kid Duan Shen..."

"Shut up!" Mr. Duan always said incompletely today, a chestnut was knocked out of his head, and then he was escorted away by the old general Duan Shao.

There were ministers covering their mouths secretly watching the joke, and many envoys from the Song Dynasty came to Jiuhuatai, looking at this angry old general, they couldn't help inquiring.When they heard that this was General Duan Shao from the Qi State, they were in awe, and they all admired: "General Duan is really old and strong!"

The flush on Duan Shen's face faded a bit, looking at Zi Mo in embarrassment, wondering how much his eldest brother's yelling was heard by His Royal Highness Lan Ling.

"General Duan, the banquet is about to start, you should go in with me." Zi Mo just nodded and smiled, Duan Shen nodded hastily after hearing this, and hastily concealed the shame in his eyes.

Jiuhuatai, the refurbished high platform is more majestic and gorgeous than before.The lights are bright and the music is loud.Liu Ziye wore the official robe of the Song Dynasty and Gao Zhan, the emperor of the Qi Dynasty, attended the top of the hall.

Officials from the two countries on the left and right raised their glasses and respected each other. It was very lively.

The details of the reconciliation have already been finalized one by one, and no surprises, tonight's banquet is just a passing scene.So many ministers put their focus on exchanging feelings with Song officials, chatting about the enchanting beauties in the south of the Yangtze River, and the heroic spirit in the north.Also, the much-anticipated dance composed by the king of the Song Dynasty and performed by Murong Chong, the most beautiful woman in the Northern Dynasty, made people look forward to it and was very excited.

"My lord, have you seen Lord Murong Chong?" Zi Mo looked from one end of the banquet to the other, but there was no sign of Phoenix.

"His Highness Chang Gong, Lord Murong should be with Prince Yongguang..." The etiquette officer said and looked up at Liu Ziye, who was talking and laughing with Gao Zhan above, smiled awkwardly, and then changed his words, "It should be at this time Waiting with the other dancers in the inner courtyard at the back of the main hall, hahahaha, Mr. Murong is a good-looking person, and he dances wonderfully! No wonder His Highness Chang Gong is looking forward to it too, but the old man... "There was lust in the eyes of the squinting eyes, and it seemed that he was very proud of being in the same breath as the Lanling King.Seeing Zi Mo's cold expression, the ceremony official restrained himself a little, and straightened his clothes with a smile.

"Your Highness, look, the Prince of Henan is there. This banquet was arranged by the Prince of Henan, he must know where Lord Murong is!" said the old ceremonial officer, pinching his beard.

Zimo glanced at his elder brother Xiaoyu, Xiaoyu was toasting with Song Guan who was sitting opposite him, as if he sensed that Zimo was looking at him, he held up the wine cup and looked back at him from the corner of his eye, then turned his eyes away, coldly Very.

Thinking of the third elder brother Xiaowan being dispatched from Yecheng and still not returning yet, and the elder brother being so alienated from him, Zi Mo felt uncomfortable, so he raised his head and drank the wine in his hand.

The ceremony and music suddenly slowed down, and the emperor Gao Zhan and Liu Ziye got up together, and they raised wine cups to wish in front of the ministers of the two countries.

"I wish the two countries of Qi and Song will have a good relationship forever, the prince will live forever, and your majesty will live forever!" All the courtiers present in the hall stood up and bowed, filling their wine cups and wishing.

Gao Zhan smiled and raised his hand to signal everyone to get down, and then he will do it first.Liu Ziye nodded for the first time, and showed the empty cups in his hands to all His Highness, and the courtiers of Qi and Song Dynasties drank together to show their sympathy.

As the peace negotiation ceremony began, there was the sound of silk and bamboo inside and outside Jiuhuatai, and several rumbling salutes and fireworks came from outside the hall, which illuminated the brightly lit Jiuhua Hall even more mottled.Amidst the colorful lights, a group of dancers came to the center of the hall, with graceful water sleeves, dancing lightly, and this was the beginning of the show to add to the fun.

Seeing that they entered through the side door of Jiuhuatai, Zi Mo hurriedly toasted a few glasses of wine with the surrounding ministers, and found an excuse to say that he was going to find a convenience. go.

"His Royal Highness Lanling!" The beautifully dressed dancers passed by the corridor in twos and threes, seeing King Lanling's mouth smiling and provocatively provocatively saluting the beautiful man frequently.

"Miss, can you see Lord Murong?" Zi Mo asked.

"Forgive me, my lord. I have never seen Lord Murong before." The woman who was questioned shyly replied with her head bowed. Zi Mo nodded and went to the back garden.

All the way, the quarrels and quarrels coming from there can't help but make people frown.

The voice belonged to a music official in Qi Palace, Zimo had met him a few times in Tongque Terrace, so he sounded very familiar.

"All of you are full of wine bags and rice bags!!! You can't look down on a living person that big! What are you doing to eat!" With a sigh, the elderly music official coughed anxiously, and there seemed to be a few people beside him. A waitress persuaded him.There was a lot of chatter and confusion, so Zimo entered the room in the inner garden and asked, "Who's missing?"

The ceremony and music officials were talking anxiously, and when they heard someone behind them, they turned their heads and looked over.

"His Royal Highness Chang Gong! Why are you here, Your Highness?" The music official, who was so anxious that he was sweating, bowed to him. How could Zi Mo have the time to be polite to him?He asked again.

"Who is missing?"

"This... is Murong, Master Murong is gone."

"What?! When did he disappear?!" Zi Mo was furious, and the flustered Yue Guan couldn't help but tremble even more.

"Your Highness atones! I don't know! I really don't know! Lord Murong was still here before, but in the blink of an eye, he didn't change his clothes, and he didn't do his makeup..." The old man sighed, seeing The anger on Lanling King's face became even worse, and he quickly explained, "Your Highness, don't worry, Lord Murong can't lose this imperial palace!"

"I can't lose it?! Then you are talking about this person?!" Zi Mo rarely got angry like this, and when he heard that Murong Chong had disappeared, Liushen Wuzhu became angry.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, don't get angry. Our ceremonial officials are not trying to excuse ourselves. Today we saw that Lord Murong looked unhappy, and later we heard that there was a dispute with other adults in Zhongshu Province... Lord Murong must be unhappy." The female officer next to him said.

"A dispute? What is the dispute?!" Zimo asked again.

"I heard that His Majesty said that His Majesty the Emperor wanted the State of Song to allocate another city to the State of Qi before he was willing to conclude a peace treaty. After hearing this, Prince Liu Ziye even made a condition, saying that if His Majesty fulfills his request, he will agree." Maid His face was red, he lowered his head and said weakly.

"What's the condition?" Zi Mo asked with a wink.

"...Here, the king of Song Dynasty is really a scoundrel. He even asked Mr. Murong, the most beautiful woman in the Northern Dynasty, to follow him back to Jiankang...and said that one person is exchanged for one city, which is a beautiful story through the ages!"

"Ridiculous!" Zi Mo yelled, clenched his fists tightly, and his face was full of anger.

"Your Highness, please calm down, Your Highness, please calm down! Thinking about it, Prince Yongguang deliberately made trouble. It may not be true that His Majesty is going to send Lord Murong to him, but for some reason, it has been widely known. Lord Murong must be annoyed." , Today, he is leading the dance in front of the emperor. I can't think about it for a while, I don't know where to hide... It doesn't matter if he avoids it, what should we do! Who should pick it up? If you make a fool of yourself in front of the envoys of the Song Dynasty, His Majesty will lose all face, and all of us should be killed..." The female officer even cried and murmured softly, "Master Murong is so confused, he was caught off guard for a while, and he can't escape the guilt afterwards."

Zimo sighed, Murong Chong's heart was so high, it was a mistake to make a compromise and fly into this cage in order to be by his side.

"I'll do it, I'll do his dance."

After Zi Mo finished speaking, the whole room seemed to forget to breathe.Taking a deep breath, the coughing and whimpering that had just happened one after another disappeared, and everything was completely silent, as if a needle could be clearly heard when it fell.
