Chapter 800(1/2)
The bright moon hangs high, and the night is as cool as water.
The nine-layer palace tower hangs high in the sky, the clouds are billowing, the rays are rising, and countless magical plants of various colors are carefully arranged, blooming with light under the night, making this the most sacred and majestic palace in the world seem like a dream.
In an elegant room in a corner of the palace, Li Yun waited meticulously and patiently.
His status as a prince gave him the convenience of entering and exiting the palace, but even for him, it was not easy to meet his biological father. In retrospect, the last time he met was at the court meeting at the beginning of the year.
The emperor of the Dragon Kingdom would not hold any grand meeting with his ministers throughout the year. He would always see the beginning but not the end. But even so, the country still operated as usual.
Li Yun had already reported the matter about Yun Jing to others. He did not dare to break into the emperor's residence by relying on his status as a prince without being summoned. No one could protect him.
Blood relatives are not too far apart, but the distance seems to be infinitely far.
I didn't have to wait too long and someone responded quickly.
An old eunuch wearing a red and black robe with a white face and no beard saluted respectfully and said: "Go back to your highness, your majesty already knows it."
"What do you mean, father?" Li Yun subconsciously stood up and asked. He shouldn't have been so unstable, but the image of Yun Jing in his mind had too great an impact on him.
The old eunuch said calmly: "There is no need to pay attention to your Majesty's oral instructions."
"No need to care?" Li Yun was stunned immediately, wondering if I didn't express it clearly enough. Isn't that person's specialness worthy of being treated with caution?
The old eunuch gave him a strange look and said unmoved: "If your highness has nothing else to do, please come back."
Your Majesty's meaning is already very clear, so don't worry about it at all. There is no need to say this a second time.
He hesitated to speak, then Li Yun cupped his hands and said: "...Is your father okay?"
"Your Majesty, everything is well. Your Highness's filial old slave will convey it to you," the old eunuch said with a smile.
Li Yun said nothing more and left with a complicated and confused mood. He was an adult and had no special circumstances that would make it inconvenient to live in the palace.
Watching his leaving figure, the old eunuch shook his head slightly and went back to resume his duties. Is a trivial matter worth making such a big fuss to alarm His Majesty? The Thirteenth Prince was a little too unstable.
He is just a person who looks similar to Your Majesty. There are many people in the world, and there are not a few who are exactly the same. Is this worthy of alarming His Majesty once he enters the palace? Could it be that the Thirteenth Prince wants to use this to deepen his impression on His Majesty, but that would be too naive.
.
The old eunuch still remembered His Majesty's tone when he heard this matter. He was even a little displeased and said that instead of caring about such trivial matters, it would be better to do something to share my worries.
How could the Emperor of the Dragon Kingdom be so majestic as others could imagine? Let alone a person with three-thirds of his charm, even if he stood in front of him exactly the same, he would be indifferent and not even a trace of curiosity.
Li Yun left the palace with a confused and confused mood. No matter what, his father's will had been issued, so the matter could only end here. Any unnecessary actions would only bring trouble to himself.
So he told his accompanying subordinates: "Go and tell Mr. Tian that for now, there is no need to think about anything. That Yunjing is just an ordinary envoy from a small country. By the way, the people in custody should be freed. Qingjiao City's
Domain gate prohibits contact”
"As ordered..."
Li Yun doesn't intend to pay attention to this matter anymore. In the royal family, the emperor's will is everything and cannot be violated. Since the emperor said he doesn't need to pay attention to it, if he continues to dwell on it, he will simply make himself uncomfortable.
In this way, this matter will be settled. It can be said that Li Yun and Tian Kang's "big fight" is simply unnecessary.
"Try to find out why Thirteen entered the palace, just understand, don't make your own decisions," someone secretly ordered, and there were more than one!
Every move of the royal family members is watched by too many people...
Yunjing didn't know about this incident related to him, and even if he knew, he wouldn't care. The Dragon Kingdom can tolerate the world. If he did something to him just because he had some similarities with the emperor he had never met before, then what would happen to him?
This Dragon Kingdom is too unworthy of its name.
He walked towards the consul's office and confirmed the authority of the formation. Soon he understood it almost.
In the future, he can grant lower-level permissions to others through the control core, which is the jade pendant. Then the so-called formations do not have so many magical and powerful functions, they only have functions such as warning and shielding internal and external functions.
In fact, if you think about it, you can understand that this area is quite special in the Dragon Kingdom Imperial Capital. It is heavily guarded and non-essential personnel are not even allowed to get close. Who dares to come here and mess around? Unless they have enough to survive.
After activating the formation, there was no movement at all. Yunjing began to look at the Consulate Mansion. From now on, this place can be regarded as the territory of the Dragon Kingdom in a sense. Of course, the Dragon Kingdom
'Has the right of final interpretation'.
Yun Jing didn't have so many scruples in the Consul's Mansion, and he understood everything here with just a sweep of his mind.
The place is very large, with pavilions and pavilions everywhere, all facilities are complete, and there is even a small training ground, enough for thousands of people to live here.
However, currently there is only Yunjing alone, and there are no neighbors except for the guards of Dragon Kingdom within ten miles.
Whoosh, Dragon Whale and Laifu sprang out from Yunjing's sleeves, and after being intimate with him for a moment, they ran away to a large pond, splashing a little bit of water.
"This is our temporary place to stay. Don't go out without me, and don't show your true self to disturb others. For the rest, you can do whatever you want." Yunjing warned them.
To Yunjing, they are friends, there is no need to be too restrictive, as long as they don't take the initiative to cause trouble.
Everything about the Consul's Mansion was clear to him at a glance, and there was no need to go to every corner in person. It was getting late, so he went straight to the rest area. There was no shortage of everything here, but it was not popular at all.
Arriving at the separate courtyard that was obviously prepared for the 'ambassador' status, Yunjing moved in directly. This place would be his place to stay for a while, but it was only temporary. When the staff here is fully staffed, he would put all the people in it.
Leave the matter to others. He can't really represent Dali and become a bridge of communication with the Dragon Kingdom and stay here permanently. That would be no different from completely confining himself here.
Without taking a rest immediately, he first went to the study, took out pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and recorded what he had seen and heard throughout the day. Although it was insignificant, it would allow people in Dali to intuitively understand the situation in the Dragon Kingdom as quickly as possible.
After finishing, he sorted out the manuscript, opened the window and looked at the bright moon in the sky. He didn't feel bored as a stranger in a foreign land. He just thought that the New Year's Eve was less than two months away and hoped to finish the matter as soon as possible.
Regarding the expansion of the Consulate House, Yunjing does not plan to hire people from the Dragon Kingdom, nor does he think about buying puppets from the Agency City. The people from the Dragon Kingdom are outsiders after all, and who knows if there will be any backdoors for the puppets from the Agency City. Anyway, when the time comes
People will be transferred from Dali. During this period of time, he can only do it himself. Anyway, he is idle.
Of course, he has not forgotten his purpose of coming to Dragon Kingdom...
There was no conversation all night. Early the next morning, after Yunjing finished washing, he felt a warning from the formation. Someone was coming, but he did not break in because there was no one else here except Yunjing. The other party used this method to communicate with Yunjing.
It came at just the right time.
Soon Yunjing appeared at the door. Many people came and brought a lot of things. The leader was Tao Ran who had given them to him yesterday.
"Are you still used to it, Ambassador Yun?" Tao Ran greeted with a smile.
Yun Jing nodded and said with a smile: "Excuse me, everything is fine."
"Well, envoy Yun has invited me. I will deliver some items. Please check them out." Tao Ran went straight to the topic after some pleasantries and handed over a list as he spoke.
Yunjing took it and browsed it quickly. On the list, not only were several carriages and horses sent to the consul's house, but also the funds allocated, as well as the Dragon Kingdom's law books, imperial capital map, living supplies, etc., and everything added up was enough.
More than a dozen cars.
It's not efficient at all, maybe Long Guo is already very good at this kind of thing.
After reading it, Yun Jing said: "I'm tired."
"If Yunshi has no objection, please sign for it here, and then do you need us to help you deliver it to the corresponding location?" Tao Ran said thoughtfully after handing over a receipt.
He did not refuse his kindness. When signing for the receipt, Yunjing said: "Then I'll trouble you all."
"You're welcome, Mr. Yun." After saying that, he looked at the others and said, "Have you heard that? Hurry up?"
Yun Jing also has completely opposite attitudes towards different people, which is not surprising at all.
While people were moving various items, Tao Ran looked at Yun Jing and said with a smile: "Envoy Yun, we will try our best to arrange the submission of credentials to formalize diplomatic relations. It will not take long, as long as three to five days, and as little as one or two days.
I will notify you as soon as I am ready. During this period, Yun makes everything random.”
"I know, it's just a good time to visit your imperial capital. Don't worry, I won't miss the real thing." Yunjing said calmly, without much expectation. He had to find something to occupy himself during this time.
During the chat, the others had already finished moving the things. When they were done, Tao Ran said: "Then I won't disturb Yunshi. Let's take our leave first."
After they left, Yunjing returned to the Consul's Mansion, thinking in his mind that everything seemed to be normal again, and the weird feeling from yesterday had disappeared.
What happened?
Yunjing was puzzled, but he didn't dwell too much on it. It was obvious that the differential treatment had passed.
Tao Ran and the others sent a lot of things, and all kinds of daily necessities were arranged in place. The Dragon Kingdom's law books were enough to fill a room, and then there were maps, money, and several cars and horses.
"I am the only one here now, and there is not even a horse breeder. Fortunately, the problem is not big. The Dragon Kingdom has sent enough feed, so I can think of something."
Yunjing doesn't want to worry about the horse horses. Those horses with wings are extremely intelligent, have been specially tamed, and are very peaceful.
The money sent by the Official Consulate Office Long Guo is only used for the daily expenses of the Consulate Office. To put it bluntly, it is repairs and maintenance, etc. Yunjing can use this money at his own disposal. There is no need to report to Long Guo where it is used.
This is quite a lot of money, a million gold coins!
It is a gold coin, not a million taels of gold. According to Yunjing’s understanding during this period, there are three types of currency in the Dragon Kingdom, gold, silver and copper coins. The ratio is one to one hundred. These three currencies are divided into large coins and small coins.
The ratio is one to ten.
"The currency of the Dragon Kingdom is specially made by the Mint Department. The material used to mint the currency is not pure. It is obviously an alloy. It has unique anti-counterfeiting methods. It is difficult to counterfeit, and it is a serious crime." Yun Jingruo looked at the gold coin in his hand.
Thoughts.
Of course, it is not difficult for him to imitate, but it is not necessary. With his methods, anything he can get is worth a lot of money. There is no need to take that risk and it will be thankless.
Regarding the issue of currency, Yun Jingxin said that this world is not the same as his previous life. Every country is different. Take Dali as an example. One tael of silver can be exchanged for a hundred copper plates. That is because Dali has a rich silver production.
If the state continues to mine without restraint, the ratio of silver to copper will further shrink.
In this world, the symbolic significance of precious metals is greater than its practical application, and everything is under the control of the state.
"A small coin from the Dragon Kingdom, that is, a copper plate, can buy two white-faced steamed buns. This is due to the increase in prices caused by the chaos of exotic monsters in recent years. Otherwise, the purchasing power is stronger. Of course, this is not enough to measure the Dragon Kingdom.
The value ratio of currency and Dali currency needs to be measured based on various aspects. The overall ratio should be within one to ten. In this case, Dali's currency is not too devalued in the Dragon Kingdom."
Putting down the gold coins in his hands, Yunjing stopped worrying so much. There would be officials from Dali and Long Guo discussing this matter later.
