I whispered: "Who is the envoy from Han?"
Gao Guangyuan said: "Li Muyu, the Great Governor of the Han Dynasty, and Duan Jing, the National Preceptor" I took a breath of air.
Li Muyu was indeed a very strong opponent.
The trouble he caused me when I was in Han Dynasty is still fresh in my memory.
Duan Jing is Huan Xiaozhuo.
Her skills are extremely superb, and her relationship with me is indistinguishable from friend to foe.
If she uses tricks to control the mind of King Yan Li Zhaoji, wouldn't this matter be even more troublesome?
Gao Guangyuan said strangely: "General Jiao knows them."
I smiled and said, "Li Muyu has been famous for a long time, but Duan Jing has never heard of him."
Gao Guangyuan said: "For a young girl to gain the trust of Emperor Xiang Botao of the Han Dynasty, there must be something special about her."
I nodded and said, "Will King Yan change his position?"
Gao Guangyuan said: "I am also worried about this.
Today, the king did not go to his usual morning court, but took time to receive two envoys from Han.
I am afraid this matter will become a little complicated."
I said angrily: "King Yan is really going too far.
He doesn't underestimate our status as an ally and actually favors one over the other."
Gao Guangyuan sneered: "Now and then, King Yan has always been indecisive and hesitant when things happen.
Even if he suddenly changes his mind, it is reasonable."
I took a few steps back and forth.
The development of the situation was more serious than I imagined.
It seems that if the wedding is held one day earlier, we have greater hope of controlling the situation: "Can Gao Xiangguo tell me when the wedding will be held?"
Gao Guangyuan said: "When I enter the palace later, I will discuss this matter with the king."
He said with worry: "The arrival of the two envoys from the Han Dynasty is indeed unexpected.
What I am worried about is that the king will be captured by them."
Be persuaded and fall into their camp at the critical moment.”
I nodded and said: "For King Yan, it may not be a good thing to end this war as soon as possible, but he must also recognize that Han's invitation to join the alliance is just for future annexation."
Gao Guangyuan sneered and said: "Emperor Cheng of the Han Dynasty must have realized that Dakang wanted to gain benefits from this war, and now he suddenly changed his original intention to show goodwill to the Yan State, and the target should be Dakang."
I looked into Gao Guangyuan's unfathomable eyes and said word for word: "Gao Xiangguo will not change his original position."
Gao Guangyuan smiled and said: "The arrow is on the string and must be fired.
Gao's future and destiny have long been linked to everyone."
A smile appeared on the corner of my lips.
Gao Guangyuan has a profound understanding of the situation.
A person who knows how to choose interests is a truly smart person.
I whispered: "I still have something to ask of you."
Gao Guangyuan said: "If General Jiao has something to do, just tell him.
As long as I can do it, I will do my best."
"I would like to trouble the Prime Minister to arrange an opportunity.
I would like to meet with Duan Jing, the Imperial Advisor of the Han Dynasty."
Gao Guangyuan narrowed his eyes and looked at me, and smiled mysteriously.
I said a little strangely: "Why is Gao Xiangguo laughing?"
Gao Guangyuan said: "I found that General Jiao is not honest with people.
If I guessed correctly, the general and that Duan Guoshi must have something to do with each other.
Why did he just tell me that he had never heard of her?"
I laughed: "Gao Xiangguo has a sharp eye, and I had a chance encounter with Duan Jing.
But after so many years, I don't know if she still remembers me."

Gao Guangyuan said meaningfully: "Anyone who has seen a person like General Jiao will definitely never forget him."
I did not let Gao Han accompany me and returned to the Lu Family Hotel alone.
It was just lunch time.
Che Hao quietly pulled me aside and whispered: "Leng Guxuan went out early in the morning and still hasn't come back."
I smiled calmly and said: "Don't worry about her, she is probably going to handle some private matters.
She will come back when we need her."
I briefly told him what I had just learned in the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Haonong frowned and said with worry: "If King Yan suddenly changes sides, this matter will be very detrimental to us.
Why don't you leave this place of right and wrong first?"
I sneered and said: "I have no need to leave before the situation becomes clear.
Besides, King Yan Li Zhaoji is not a fool.
He should be able to figure out what the true purpose of Emperor Cheng of the Han Dynasty is."
At this time, the warrior came over and reported: "I am reporting to the two commanders that the right prime minister of Yan State, Guo Weizi, has come to ask for an audience."
I was slightly startled.
The Yan State had left and right prime ministers.
The left prime minister was Gao Guangyuan, and the right prime minister was Wei Ziyue.
The official positions in all countries are respected by the left, so Wei Ziyue's status in the court is slightly lower than Gao Guangyuan, but this Wei Ziyue also has another identity.
The Wei family is the biggest contributor to the founding of the Yan Kingdom, and they enjoy the best treatment in the Yan Kingdom.
Just like the royal family, many of the Wei family's children intermarried with the royal family, and the family was very powerful.
The first time I knew about Wei Ziyue was when I was in Great Qin and asked Lianyue to help me steal the imperial mausoleum of Emperor Yan Yuanzong.
Na Lianyue offended Wei Ziyue by digging the Wei family's ancestral tomb in Yan State, so he fled to Qin State.
Wei Ziyue came here this time on the order of King Yan Li Zhaoji to personally apologize to the princess for what happened last night.
It seems that Gao Guangyuan did not convey my request to King Yan.
Wei Zi is over fifty years old, but because he takes good care of himself, he still looks like he is in his thirties, but his body is slightly fatter, his steps are sloppy, and he is a bit old.
I asked someone to inform Ayiguli of Wei Ziyue's arrival, but Ayiguli had no intention of meeting Wei Ziyue, so Che Hao and I met Wei Ziyue in the lobby.
I smiled and said: "Prime Minister Wei, the princess is not feeling well due to the bumpy journey.
I'm afraid I won't be able to see you today."
Wei Ziyue is the kind of person who makes people feel hypocritical at first glance, with a smile on his face: "Since the princess is not feeling well, Wei can't force herself.
I am here to visit you today because I have been entrusted by the king.
I would like to apologize to you for what happened last night and give you a satisfactory answer.”
Che Hao sneered: "What explanation does Master Wei have?"
Wei Ziyue said: "There were foreign enemies sneaking into the palace last night.
The king temporarily ordered the inner city to be sealed off, so I neglected all distinguished guests.
I hope the two commanders will not be offended."
As soon as he heard this sentence, he knew it was a made-up excuse.
We We have been in Yandu for a while.
If there is a foreign enemy sneaking into the palace, Gao Guangyuan and his son must know about it, but why didn't they tell us?
There is no point in exposing this matter now, it will only make both parties look bad.
I smiled and said: "Since Wei Xiangguo is here on behalf of King Yan, this matter has been explained clearly.
Of course we will not complain."
Wei Ziyue smiled and said: "The two commanders can tell at a glance that they are reasonable, tolerant and open-minded people.
I hope I can explain this matter to the princess."
I sighed and said, "Princess is a precious person.
If you are wronged, you will naturally have some temper in your heart.
I am afraid that we, the subordinates, will not be able to speak out."

Wei Ziyue said: "The king asked me to inform you that he will personally receive you in the imperial city the day after tomorrow and hold a banquet to welcome you."
I said sarcastically: "Finally, I've waited until King Yan's audience."
Wei Ziyue heard the dissatisfaction in my words, but he didn't show it at all.
He still smiled and said: "The king has many things to do and is busy with state affairs, so I asked you to wait for a long time.
I hope the two commanders can understand."
I sneered and said, "It seems that the affairs between Dakang and Yan are not state affairs."
Wei Ziyue smiled and said, "Commander Jiao seems to be angry."
Che Hao said loudly: "How can we not be angry that His Highness the Crown Prince asked us to escort the princess all the way to Yandu out of consideration for the relationship with the allies.
Unexpectedly, we were repeatedly treated coldly as soon as we arrived here.
We were not allowed to enter the inner city last night.
That's all. , why does it come There is still no member of the royal family coming to meet today.
If King Yan is not sincere about this wedding at all, we don't have to look down here and just protect the princess back to Dakang today."
The more he spoke, the more excited he became, his forehead Veins appear and disappear.
Wei Ziyue accompanied him with a smile and said, "Commander Che has misunderstood.
Your Majesty has already started preparing for the wedding.
Now everything in the palace is ready.
The Queen will personally come to welcome Her Royal Highness the Princess to the palace to rest this afternoon."
I said coldly: "No need, the princess will not enter the palace until King Yan summons her.
Lord Wei can go back and tell King Yan what I said."
Wei Ziyue looked a little embarrassed, but he immediately returned to his smiling expression: "Yan and Kang are allies, and His Highness the Crown Prince doesn't want to harm the harmony between the two families."
I looked at Wei Ziyue with sharp eyes and said, "Has Prime Minister Wei ever thought about who is hurting the harmony between the two families now?
If the prince is here, I'm afraid he will reconsider the definition of alliance."
Wei Ziyue coughed twice, said a few perfunctory words, and hurriedly stood up to leave.
Che Hao stared at Wei Zi's retreating figure and said with concern: "The King of Yan has clearly turned to the Han Kingdom.
If we continue to stay here, it will only increase the danger."
I sneered and said, "What I hate most in my life are treacherous villains.
If Lee Shau Kee wants to switch sides now, I'm afraid it won't be that easy."
Che Hao said: "If you keep the green hills, you won't be afraid of running out of firewood.
We are now in the enemy's hinterland.
It is impossible for us to compete with them with our strength.
It is better to leave in time."
I shook my head: "Leaving now wouldn't be equivalent to handing over all the situation we worked hard to create to the Han Kingdom.
I must get what I deserve this time."
Che Hao said: "Young master, you should be careful about Gao Guangyuan.
He is cunning and cunning.
Don't put your future and destiny on him."
I smiled and said, "Don't worry, I have never trusted this person."
In the evening, Gao Guangyuan asked Gao Han to come over and invite me to drink tea in his house.
Gao Han whispered to me that Li Muyu and Duan Jing were also invited tonight.
I didn't expect that Gao Guangyuan was very efficient in making arrangements so quickly.
I met with Duan Jing.
When I arrived, Li Muyu and Huan Xiaozhuo were already seated in the Zhufeng Pavilion.
In addition to Gao Guangyuan, there was also a girl in a purple shirt, cooking tea by the red clay stove outside the pavilion.
Although her appearance was not outstanding, she had an elegant and otherworldly temperament, as if she did not belong to this world, and she exuded an indescribable indifference.
She must have been a tea ceremony master invited by Gao Guangyuan.

Gao Guangyuan said with a smile: "General Jiao, you are here just in time.
Come and taste the fragrant tea brought to me by Governor Li."
I smiled and put the gift box in my hand on the table.
Gao Guangyuan said hypocritically: "General Jiao is just here.
Why are you bringing gifts?
Could it be that you look down on me, Mr.
Gao?"
I smiled and said, "What did Xiangguo say?
Governor Li brought fragrant tea to Xiangguo, and I paired it with some refreshments.
Xiangguo can rest assured that there is no intention of bribery."
Gao Guangyuan laughed.
The tea set is a cloisonné fine porcelain cup.
Coupled with the girl's previous actions, he already knew in his heart that the girl was making tea.
Sencha is to crush the tea leaves into powder, put them into a pot and boil them together.
You must know that this is an extremely superb skill in the tea ceremony, and it requires very precise control of the water temperature and heat.
Gao Guangyuan introduced Li Muyu and Duan Jing to me, and I greeted each of them with a smile.
Both of them looked quite cold towards me.
After all, Kang and Han are now in a hostile position.
If Gao Guangyuan hadn't deliberately arranged it, it would be difficult for us to sit at the same table and talk.
Gao Guangyuan said: "This Master Xuanying is the master who leads the practice at Guanwu Temple in Yandu.
She has a profound understanding of tea ceremony.
I specially invited her to cook tea and lecture for you today."
Li Muyu smiled and said: "It seems that we are blessed today."
I smiled and said, "Jiao came here today just for the good food."
Li Muyu's eyebrows moved slightly, and his eyes couldn't help but fall on my face.
Gao Guangyuan observed carefully and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, I will leave you satisfied today.
Let's take advantage of this moment to be elegant and talk about the tea ceremony."
Huan Xiaozhuo, who had not spoken for a long time, said softly: "Master Xuanying is here, how can we do whatever we want to do?"
Gao Guangyuan laughed and said: "It is precisely because Master Xuanying is here that we can take the opportunity to ask for advice.
Otherwise, it would be a pity to miss this opportunity."
Li Muyu deliberately showed off herself in front of everyone and said, "In that case, I will tell you a few words about the tea ceremony."
I know that Huan Xiaozhuo is good at peeking into other people's thoughts.
He always looks elsewhere and doesn't easily make eye contact with hers.
Li Muyu added: "Tea ceremony can be divided into three schools.
Confucianism, Taoism, and Buddhism each have their own schools, and their forms and contents are different.
In Buddhism, tea banquets are accompanied by the solitude of green lanterns, aiming to clarify the mind and nature; Taoists seek emptiness and tranquility when drinking tea, and escape from the world; Confucians use tea to inspire people, connect each other's minds, and actively engage in the world. " Gao Guangyuan praised: "Captain Li is indeed very knowledgeable and his eloquent remarks are refreshing to Gao."
I noticed that Xuan Ying's eyes did not change at all, she was still looking at the fire coldly, knowing that there was nothing novel in Li Muyu's opinion.
I deliberately wanted to undermine his prestige and said with a smile: "At first glance, Governor Li's opinion seems reasonable, but Mr.
Jiao doesn't think so
