Chapter 566: Friends come from afar

At this time, before Chen Ao could make a plan, the South Vietnamese country finally responded. As a foreign country, it cannot be underestimated. The port is the third largest port in South Vietnam, and it cannot be regarded as a casual person.

The King of Yue immediately submitted a letter and sent envoys to Bianjing to ask for an explanation. In addition to this, he also sent a team of envoys to come from the sea and go straight to Quanzhou to negotiate with Chen Ao.

This decision shows that Yue State has always been very concerned about the state affairs of Song State. At this time, Emperor Song was "restoring illness". The real master who could only talk about was Chen Ao. Besides, Chen Ao was also the chief minister of the Honglu Temple, and he had the right to negotiate with the right person.

The above statement was deliberately for Chen Ao to show him, and he wanted to put pressure on him. The real talk was about Quanzhou, so the number of envoys along the way was the most, and his identity was even more noble. He looked like he was about to set up a stage with Shen Ao and would not give up until he talked about the result.

If they encounter a wall in Quanzhou, the people of Yue can only ask for an explanation from Bianjing, and they will be defeated by the death.

The Yue State's envoy ship arrived at Quanzhou Port and sent a sentry ship to report. He thought Chen Ao would ignore it. Unexpectedly, when the ship arrived at the dock, the entire dock was covered with red and green. A team of troops were guarding the side, and drums and music sounded, shaking the sky. It was close to a tall building far away. Chen Ao was wearing a python suit. He was wearing a prince's dress today, with a three-clawed golden dragon between his legs, a square heart bent collar hanging on the back, and a jade sword, a jade pendant, a brocade ribbon, a white silk sock, a black leather shoe, a Jinxian crown, and a bow-tie gold belt under his jaw. He was full of nobleness.

What makes Shen Ao the most tragic is the patterns on the body. The patterns on the prince’s body are also dragons, with only three claws. According to folk sayings, five claws are real dragons, and four claws are dragons. As for the three claws, it is almost equivalent to a copycat. How can this dragon be seen and feel awkward?

But at this moment, he smiled and saw the boat docked on the other side of the pier from afar. He immediately cheered from the bottom of his heart: "Here, please follow me to pick up the VIPs in Yue."

Behind Chen Ao, officials from all walks of life in Quanzhou came, and temporarily put down their official duties and followed Chen Ao to make up the scene. Seeing the happy appearance of the prince, I really couldn't stand it. You said you were talking about your mother, and everyone heard it. Now that they settled the score with you, you have this face again.

However, the prince said the same thing here, and even more so. What he said was three more effective than the imperial edict. Since there was a king's order, who would dare to say anything? He was still looking bitter just now. Now he immediately changed into a smile that was happier than Chen Ao. The mature and steady laughter instantly suppressed the drums and music. Following Chen Ao, he went up the trestle and went to the bow of the boat to pick up people.

The envoy of Yue State got off the boat and was shocked when he saw such grandeur. He thought he was going ashore in shame. He had long heard that this surname Chen was not easy to negotiate, but he knew that he was so warm that he had not even had time to change his dress, so he could only get off the boat with a tough bullet.

Chen Ao took the lead and saw that the other party was a dark-faced person, short and powerful, but was wearing a Yue country dress roughly the same as the Song Dynasty uniform. He immediately understood that the other party was the main leader. The two looked at each other and Chen Ao took the lead and grabbed the other party's hand: "It would be a pleasure to have friends coming from afar. If I had known that the Yue country's friends would come, I would be full and I would be happy."

As soon as I started, I played this set, but this is the one that the envoys of foreign countries like Yue Kingdom like this. In the foreign countries, Yue Kingdom and the *** are introduced from the Song Dynasty, whether it is the official system, official uniform, imperial examination, writing, classics. Although it is a bit like a monkey, the officials, regardless of whether they have ink in their stomachs, always recite a few Tang poems and Song lyrics, and read the Four Books and Five Classics. Otherwise, how can they show that they are different? They directly match you with the Four Books and Five Classics. This is worthy of it, and they think that you are a cultural person like him and give you enough face.

Although this friend has already spread from afar to the Song Dynasty, there are not many people who can understand it in Yue Kingdom. This envoy originally came with hatred. At this time, seeing the Prince of Penglai so polite and so high-minded, I was embarrassed to say something. Instead, I held Chen Ao's warm hand, searched in my stomach, and then began to sing: "I have long admired the name of the Prince. I saw him today, and I have the honor of three lives, and the Penghu will shine."

Chen Ao cursed in his heart, and the turtle shines brightly? What is this and what. But he was silent and immediately laughed: "Since you are here, I must keep you for a while." After that, he held Yue Envoy and said while walking, the officials following behind immediately gave up a way and let the two pass side by side.

"I haven't asked you for your envoy's surname and name."

"I am the surname of Yue and his name is Heng."

Li Heng? This name is completely Chinese. Chen Ao immediately said seriously: "Feng Heng Yu is big, so the word "heng" is very good."

Li Heng laughed loudly, and suddenly felt that this arrogant and evil name was not worthy of it. Such a well-informed and handsome and graceful person was not a murderer without blinking an eye.

"This person is very real." This is Li Heng's first impression of Chen Ao.

The two left the dock, and Chen Ao rode a horse in front, asking Li Heng to get on an eight-carrying sedan chair. At first, Li Heng was embarrassed and rubbed his hands, but he refused to get on the sedan chair no matter what. Chen Ao was a king and was on the same level as the King of Yue. Such a person was playing horses in front to open the way for him. How could he be a messenger?

The two were polite next to the sedan chair. This said that Brother Li looked at Xiao Wang and asked him to sit in the sedan chair. The other said that the prince did not have to be polite, as the subordinates were riding a horse was enough, but the prince's precious body could not teach the prince to ride a horse.

In the end, Li Heng couldn't resist and got into the sedan chair. In Yue Kingdom, his grade was not low, but he had never touched such an eight-carrying sedan chair. Most of the way King Yue was in this way. When he sat in, he was really cool. The seats inside were soft, covered with deer skin, and filled with cotton wool. There was also a hand-to-hand side, and there was a small stool-sized stool. There was an incense burner on top. There was smoke rising from the incense burner and the smell of lilac.

Sitting in this sedan chair with a steady flow without any bumps, it was just a comfortable feeling. Li Heng comfortably pressed on the cushion and almost fell asleep. I don’t know when someone lifted the curtain: “I’m here, I’m here.”

Chen Ao warmly invited Li Heng into the Transportation Office, and did not talk about official duties with him. He immediately arranged to welcome him. There were more than seventy tables, and there were many inside and out. The banquets were specially made. On the main seat, there were nine dishes, nine side dishes, and the wine was even more tribute wine in the capital, which was extremely mellow. Li Heng was directly arranged to the main seat. Chen Ao, the prince, fell to the seat. Li Heng did not move the chopsticks, and hundreds of officials were not moving, all watching Li Heng. After Li Heng picked up the dishes, everyone became lively and picked up the chopsticks one after another.

After that, they even toasted and had a happy toast. Li Heng was the protagonist. The officials there all came to toast one by one according to Chen Ao's previous instructions, just toast them. They also had to treat the poem. Whoever did not respond to the answer would be punished.

When he heard that it was a poem, Li Heng immediately had his eyes lit up, and there were three hundred Tang poems. He didn't pull down a single sentence, so he shook his head and looked up at the bright moon. The official below stared at the beads and said in a vain: "Look down... lower your head... lower your head..."

Li Heng was overjoyed: "Punish the wine, the wine is fine."

When he lowered his head and thought about his hometown, the child who had just been confused knew that, but at this time, everyone was acting, and in a word, he wanted to make the service feel happy. Li Heng saw that the Han officials could not compare to his own talent, and his mood was really refreshing at this time.

At the end of the song, everyone parted, and Li Heng was drunk and helped to rest.

At this time, Chen Ao was in the study, and several officials from Quanzhou were sitting next to him. Someone said, "Prince, the envoy of Yue State is ultimately the envoy, why should he be so flattering? Although this time it was my fault for the Song Dynasty, it is..."

Chen Ao interrupted with a smile: "Because I want to do a big thing, a big thing that is enough to change the world."

When everyone heard what he said, he only said that he would do whatever he wanted and said goodbye. Chen Ao said to them, "Come back tomorrow, let's have morning tea with Li Shangjun."

These people are usually flattered by others, but now they want them to flatter a foreign envoy, and they are still a guy who doesn't have much ink in his stomach but likes to quote and citation. That's really unhappy, but they have to say, "Sir, obey the order." Then they took advantage of the night and took advantage of the sedan chair.

The night passed, Li Heng woke up early in the morning, still drunk, and called out a few times. An official immediately came in, carrying the hot ginseng soup, and said with a kind look: "The envoy, the prince said, the envoy was drunk last night, got up early in the morning to drink a bowl of ginseng soup to refresh himself. Later, I will go to Wangyuanlou for tea."

Li Hengda sighed: "The King of Penglai is considerate and has a true temperament."

The clerk who was serving the soup secretly laughed in his heart. What did it have to do with his true nature? However, his face was extremely respectful. He placed the ginseng soup on the Eight Immortals table, then stood obediently on one side, and stood with his hands behind his back.

After Li Heng finished drinking the soup, the dizziness disappeared and he was in great spirits. He said, "Where is the prince?"

The clerk said: "The prince rushed to Wangyuan Tower at the third update this morning, saying that he would invite an envoy to have a tea early in the morning, and he had to prepare in advance and ordered others to do it. The prince was worried that he would be slow to treat the distinguished guests, so he went first."

The clerk paused and continued, "The prince also ordered that after the envoy finishes drinking the ginseng soup, he would lead the envoy to Wangyuan Tower. The prince was waiting there for a long time."

When Li Heng heard this, he was really grateful and couldn't help but say, "So, the prince has not slept all night?"

The clerk smiled and said, "I only took a nap for an hour."

Li Heng sighed, mixed emotions and said, "Okay, you lead the way."
