Vol 2 Chapter 205 (2/2)
No one expected the immortal poet, Co the sweat from his brow, an official hurried up to him to explain ”This old woman is an elder of the palace, and even officials must show her some respect”
Fan Xian looked at the old wo He shook his head ”I am not an official of Northern Qi,” he replied calmly, ”so I see no need to fawn over her, even if she is a palace elder I think she brings shaant indeed He paid no mind to the honor of the royal palace of Northern Qi The official gritted his teeth and lowered his head, knowing the situation was beyond his control Even if Fan Xian had lifted a hand to hit someone, there wasn'tthe path that had opened up to the carriage By that point, no one dared to obstruct him He smiled at Si Lili ”Please take care of yourself in the palace”
Si Lili gave a faint s up her previously frenetic look She pursed her lips ”I a our journey I am at a loss…”
Fan Xian smiled ”At a loss of course Don't worry” In a few sireed on the future of Si Lili's brothers left behind in the capital Saying nothing more, Fan Xian withdrew He stood at a distance in thethe oldjourney get into Northern Qi carriages
He narrowed his eyes It was rather remarkable Northern Qi did not seehts, Xiao En was being secretly transferred to Shangjing Today there were crowds and countless Brocade Guards It wasn't discreet in the slightest If Shang Shanhu was important to the Northern Qi royal fa E was yet another opposing force It see of a headache
Fan Xian was still confused by Si Lili's treatment It seemed that the Emperor truly liked her, otherwise she would not have been received so war prince, it had been sosince ceased to have any value Could it be that the young E as love? But if he was so serious about the ry about it? Hoas Si Lili going to be able to enter the palace?
The old e Fan Xian couldn't help but sigh to hie to enter another prisoner's carriage How could a carriage carry his the pain of 20 years of separation and i over the border into Northern Qi, the Black Knights had quietly made their way back to a relay station near the capital The safety of the diplomatic mission was entirely in the hands of the Brocade Guard and their arht half-day's rest, feeling quite content In any case, it appeared that his brazenness on foreign soil had not caused any trouble for the diplo sunshi+ne shone down on their route Many of the people in the diplo Qinian had once done business on behalf of someone else between the two countries The only ones who see the country were Fan Xian and the seven Tiger Guards
Although Gao Da, as head of the Tiger Guards, kept stony-faced – as was befitting a azed out of theat the bustling scenery outside, he knew that they were quite excited by the landscape of this foreign land
Fan Xian laughed ”I suppose this is a new experience for us But the scenery here in Northern Qi isn't all that different fro The trees look different, and even if the weather is colder, it's still warreat lake”
”Although Northern Qi is to the northeast,” explained wang Qinian, ”it has quite a fine cli in his low gru voice, and because he was a man of feords, Fan Xian was quite interested in what he had to say ”The scenery in the north is fine indeed My greatest wish has always been to follow His Majesty in the Fourth Northern Expedition, capturing territory for the Kingdo His Majesty unite the land”
The carriage shuddered as it travelled swiftly along the road Green leaves hung from the deciduous trees outside Swept up by the breeze froe, they seehed too ”In such beautiful spring scenery, perhaps we should speak less of battles”
That being said, he still proceeded to explain to everyone what they had to pay careful attention to in their trip to Shangjing It was not necessary to conduct further negotiations The ireement was unlikely to be too difficult, but there were so Qinian, and Gao Da, the only other person in the carriage was vice-envoy Lin Jing of Honglu Temple, so no topic was off-li that they were not heard by Northern Qi men
There was still soe radually grew deeper He was no longer in the mood to look out at the endless dry, dull scenery outside the carriage He sat and pondered Where was Xiao En headed now? And Si Lili? Before she entered the palace, what identity would the young E's Operation White Sleeve had been secretly aborted by Fan Xian Was Fan Xian's Operation Red Sleeve going to be put into practice one day?
Seeing that Com spoke respectfully ”Sir, though the diplomatic mission is safe, the road is yet far and arduous I ask that you exercise patience a little while longer”
He knew full well of Fan Xian's status When he had slapped that old woht it to be important In the capital Fan Xian's tehter of Conificant servant woman He knew full well that the diplomatic mission operated entirely on the orders of Co out odd jobs Fearing Fan Xian's sour mood and the possibility he had overstepped his boundaries, he hurriedly tried to straighten things out with a s places in the world The girls there are different fro River back in the capital They have a different kind of graceful bearing When we get there, you can see for yourself, sir”
