Chapter 244 Gift
Chapter 244 Gift
Zhao Yaohong closed the post in his hand and looked at the guard standing in front of him, "We entered the city so secretly, how did he find out?"
Konoe said, "This is Kyoto after all. It's his territory. It's not surprising that he knows about it."
"Your Highness, how do you plan to deal with him?"
Zhao Yaohong leaned back in his chair. "How else can we deal with him? Since he knows we are here, he must also know the purpose of our visit. We can just tell him the truth."
"You know, Song Minyan from Song State has been here for so long, it's impossible for him not to know the reason, so there's no need to hide it."
"People from Song and Zhao have come. People from Yun should have come as well. Go check who is coming."
"Yes." The guard took the order and went out.
Zhao Yaohong leaned back in his chair, thinking about what he had learned yesterday.
Given Song Minyan's personality, it is impossible for him to pursue a girl from Anguo for no reason. He must have some ulterior motive.
The daughter of Marquis Leshan.
Marquis Leshan is now known to everyone in Anguo, but no one knows what kind of property he has or who he is.
If he hadn't donated grain and money during the famine in Anguo, I'm afraid no one would have known about this person.
Before he came, he sent people to inquire, and found out that the donated grain amounted to nearly one million kilograms, and the amount of silver and money was countless.
Marquis Leshan can be said to be an important figure who helped Anguo get out of the famine ahead of time. This also shows that there is a 60% chance that he is the one.
That's why Song Minyan wanted to start with his daughter.
Zhao Yaohong thought of this and sneered, "How hypocritical."
Six alleys in West City.
Song Mincheng frowned as he looked at the message in his hand. "Third brother is really useless. He has been here for so long and has made no progress. He even got himself into a brothel. It's really embarrassing."
"By the way, how's the investigation going for you?"
"Your Highness, I have found out." The guard placed a stack of documents on the table beside him.
"I also found out that the Crown Prince of Anguo has an appointment with the fourth prince of Zhao, Zhao Yaohong."
Song Mincheng stopped his hand as he was about to take the letter and asked, "Do you know where we can meet?"
The guard immediately reported back: "I didn't find out the truth, but I have arranged for someone to guard outside Zhao Yaohong's residence."
Song Minyan nodded, "Okay, let's go down."
After reading the memorial, Song Minyan frowned. It turned out that the third brother was not bewitched, but had other plans.
However, he was the only one who could think of this method.
After all this time, I have only thought of this one son. With such a small brain, if it weren't for my father's pampering, I would have died in the struggle long ago.
……
"Your Highness, outside the palace, Wei Annan wants to see you."
Hui Chengyuan put down the letter in his hand and said, "Take it to the reception room."
Seeing Hui Chengyuan coming in, Wei Annan stood up and bowed, "Wei Annan from Yun State, meeting His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
"Sir Wei, please don't be polite. Please take a seat." Hui Chengyuan walked to the main seat and sat down.
"I wonder why Lord Wei is here?"
Wei Annan sat down and said with a smile: "Your Highness, I came here first to thank the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess for saving my sister's life, and second for the Saint's business."
"Your Majesty knows that the Saint will never go to Yun Country, but no matter what, we must show our sincerity and at least pay him a visit."
Hui Chengyuan looked at him and said, "I have already thanked you for your sister's matter. Sir Wei, there is no need to mention it again."
"As for the affairs of the saints, this prince and my father only believe in letting nature take its course, so we did not go out of our way to look for them."
"Now, guests from the three kingdoms have come to visit our An Kingdom, and none of them have seen the saint predicted by Yun Kingdom's national teacher. I'm afraid they won't leave easily."
"Then let's gather together after the river sacrifice. I will then tell you about this saint."
After hearing this, Wei Annan stood up, bowed, and said, "In that case, I will wait for your notification at Yuanlai Inn."
After saying that, he took out a palm-sized wooden box from his sleeve pocket and said, "Your Highness, this is a gift that my sister asked me to pass on to the Crown Princess. Please help pass it on."
Ling Yang glanced at Hui Chengyuan and stepped forward to take the small wooden box.
Hui Chengyuan glanced at the small wooden box and nodded, "Yes, if Lord Wei wants to travel in Kyoto, this prince can arrange for someone to accompany you."
Wei Annan smiled and said, "There is no need for me to accompany you. The capital of Anguo is prosperous and the people are happy. I can enjoy myself."
"It's getting late. I'll take my leave now."
"Ling Yang, show the guest out." Hui Chengyuan put down the teacup in his hand.
Ling Yang nodded and walked towards Wei Annan, "Master Wei, please."
Wei Annan bowed to Hui Chengyuan and then left with Ling Yang.
Hui Chengyuan looked at the small wooden box, thought about it, opened it and took a look.
Looking at the things inside, he thought they were some scarves, but when he saw the thin rope sticking out, he immediately closed the small wooden box.
Pick up the wooden box and walk towards the backyard.
He walked over to Yuan Man, who was sitting in the corridor reading a book, and after glancing at the book in her hand, he said, "Wei Annan is here. This is what Wei Xishan asked him to bring to you."
Yuan Man looked at the small wooden box in his hand and said, "Let me see."
When she saw what was inside the box, she almost threw it away.
He closed the box and looked at Hye Seung Won, “Did you read it?”
Hui Chengyuan's mouth twitched, "I saw it."
Yuanman held his forehead with his hand, she would really thank him.
What was Wei Xishan thinking, giving her something like this and asking a man to deliver it?
Hui Chengyuan took the box from her hand and took out the things inside. "How could Wei Xishan, a half-grown child, think of giving you something like this?"
A translucent bellyband embroidered with mandarin ducks playing in the water.
When Hui Chengyuan thought of his A-man wearing this clothes, he felt hot all over and his nose itched, and he immediately dismissed the idea in his mind.
Seeing that he wanted to unfold it and take a look, Yuan Man immediately snatched the thing from his hand and said, "Who knows what she is thinking."
"I think she might have been inspired by you." In the future, my daughter must not be taught by my wife, otherwise she might become the next Wei Xishan.
Yuan Man narrowed his eyes at him and said, "What did you say? Say it again."
Hui Chengyuan immediately shook his head, "Nothing, nothing."
"Where's Yuanbao? Did he go out to play again?"
Yuan Man put the things in his hand into the box, ready to put it away, "Well, my brother took it."
"With Yuan Wu following us, nothing will happen."
"Have you agreed to meet Zhao Yaohong somewhere?"
Hui Chengyuan picked her up, sat down, put her on his lap, and held her in his arms, "Well, the invitation has been sent, and we'll meet at Minglou."
"Minglou?" Yuan Man blinked.
Minglou is Qinglong's territory. She has been here for so long but has never visited it.
Hui Chengyuan nodded, "Yes, although Minglou was built not long ago, it is a good place to discuss things."
Yuan Man leaned in his arms and smiled, "Minglou was built by Qinglong. This time, it's a good opportunity to go and take a look."
