Three days later.
It was Ying Changqing, who was appointed by Ying Zheng as the envoy of Great Qin.
The day he left Great Qin with the envoy team and headed to Great Tang.
At the diplomatic ceremony.
Prime Minister Li Si had long prepared everything needed for the diplomatic mission to the Great Tang.
However, it was almost the auspicious time for the ceremony to begin.
However, Ying Changqing was still nowhere to be seen.
Even Ying Zheng had reached the platform.
Ying Changqing was still nowhere to be seen.
The officials standing below the platform began to mutter in their hearts.
"This Seventh Young Master…could he have forgotten the time of the ceremony?”
"This…Seventh Young Master has never participated in court affairs. If there is no one to guide him, it is indeed impossible.”
"Then wouldn't this delay the big matter?”
"But, but what can we do?”
Someone looked helpless.
He could even be absent from such an important matter.
It was already the crime of deceiving the emperor.
According to Great Qin's laws, nine generations should be executed!
However, the person who did this was Great Qin's Seventh Young Master.
Moreover, everyone wanted to throw this hot potato away as soon as possible.
Letting Ying Changqing stay in Great Qin for even a moment longer was not enough for these people.
Thinking of this, many people turned to look at Ying Zheng on the high platform.
It was as if they were waiting for Ying Zheng to make a decision.
……
"Where's Changqing?"
The sun was rising, but Ying Changqing was still nowhere to be seen.
Ge Nia saw that Ying Zheng's expression did not change, but his tone had a hint of coldness.
"Your Majesty, it seems that the Seventh Young Master has never been involved in court affairs.”
"Thus, I don't have an accurate concept of these things.”
"That's why I was delayed."
Sensing Ying Zheng's displeasure towards Ying Changqing, Zhao Gao was secretly delighted.
He seized the opportunity to fan the flames.
"At this moment, Seventh Young Master is probably still admiring flowers and playing with birds in the residence.”
"This ceremony is about to begin. Why don't you let me go to the Seventh Young Master's residence?”
"Let's take a look at the situation.”
A cold glint flashed in Ying Zheng's eyes.
Zhao Gao further suggested.
Ge Nia, who was standing behind Ying Zheng, glanced at Zhao Gao.
Ge Nia's intuition told him that Zhao Gao's initiative was probably against the Seventh Young Master.
He didn't have any good intentions.
However, he had a vague feeling that this was related to the matter of the crown prince.
Therefore, even though he sensed that Zhao Gao's intentions were not so simple, he was still able to do it.
Ge Nia had no intention of interfering.
Ying Zheng was about to speak.
"Seventh Young Master has arrived…"
A notification sounded.
In the distance, there was a carriage carrying the Seventh Young Master Ying Changqing.
It came from the main road!
……
"Seventh Young Master is finally here!"
"It's alright, it's alright. It's fine as long as we don't delay the ceremony!”
Great Qin's officials almost cried tears of joy.
Otherwise, if they missed the time of the ceremony, according to the rules, they would have to find another auspicious time!
However, they only wanted to send this troublemaker away as soon as possible.
Someone else can go!
"Hehe, it seems that Seventh Young Master still knows some rules.”
She saw that Ying Changqing had arrived on time.
Zhao Gao, who originally wanted to make a fuss, could only laugh and swallow his words.
At the same time, Zhao Gao was also a little puzzled.
This Seventh Young Master had never participated in court affairs, and he had never reminded him of the time of the ceremony before.
How did he know?
Han Xuan Temple's figure suddenly flashed across Zhao Gao's mind.
Could it be…
Just as Zhao Gao was about to look at Ying Zheng subconsciously, he saw Ying Zheng standing up.
The tall and majestic black shadow seemed to block out the sunlight.
His heart sank.
Zhao Gao and the others immediately knelt on the ground.
"Since you have arrived, let the ceremony begin.”
Ying Zheng's gaze fell on Ying Changqing's carriage, his deep and cold dragon eyes.
A complicated emotion flashed across his mind.
"Yes."
Li Si was about to order someone to invite Ying Changqing down from the carriage.
"Young Master's body is weak and can't withstand the wind.”
"I'm afraid that Young Master cannot come down from the carriage to participate in this ceremony.”
"Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
A young woman who looked like Ying Changqing's personal maid said from beside the carriage.
Although her voice was not loud, everyone present could hear her clearly!
"This…is unbecoming!"
"I've been an official for so many years, but I've never seen such an outrageous request!”
"Heh, this Seventh Young Master is an envoy of Great Qin, but he didn't get off the carriage during the diplomatic ceremony.”
The Generals were not that talkative, but some of Great Qin's civil officials started to mutter.
They looked at the servant girl who had just spoken.
The woman said that she was a servant girl, but she was wearing expensive Shu embroidery.
She was dressed even better than the wives of some low-ranking officials!
"Even a servant girl is dressed so well. This Seventh Young Master is really willing to spend money.”
"Look at that carriage. It's so resplendent. It's no different from a small palace!”
The ministers muttered softly.
……
Why hasn't the ceremony started yet?"
On the high platform, Ying Zheng frowned slightly when he saw that no one had moved for a long time.
"Your Majesty…"
A few ministers with troubled expressions walked up and told Ying Zheng what had happened.
"Forget it."
Ying Zheng gently pinched the space between his eyebrows.
"It's just a ceremony. Changqing has been weak since he was young.”
"Let's not get off the carriage and hold this ceremony.”
Ying Zheng thought to himself, Ying Changqing was the one who got it by pressing the button.
If he delayed any longer because of this matter, he might not be able to leave today!
"Yes…"
Hearing that Ying Zheng had opened the dragon's mouth, no matter how unreasonable the civil officials felt, they could only swallow their words back.
Thus, the ceremony continued as usual.
However, the officials couldn't help but look over.
He looked at the carriage parked at the side of the square.
……
"Today, Seventh Young Master Changqing will be the envoy of Great Qin.”
"Set off for the Great Tang to represent His Majesty and make peace with the Qin and Tang dynasties.”
"We wish Seventh Young Master a smooth journey and a triumphant return!”
After the ceremony ended, Prime Minister Li Si led the ministers and said to Ying Changqing, who was in the carriage.
"Thank you, Lord Li Si."
A pleasant male chuckle came from the carriage.
It was Ying Changqing, who had just been named the "number one silkpants in the Divine Prefecture" by the Golden Roll.
However, it was different from the guesses of the ministers about Ying Changqing's image.
This voice was neither hurried nor slow, but it gave people an indescribable feeling of being bathed in the spring breeze.
However, it also faintly emitted an innate sense of oppression that made one's heart palpitate.
It was as if one was in the middle of ice and fire.
"Seventh Young Master, please."
Li Si glanced at the man who was still sitting on the stage.
Ying Changqing, who didn't seem to have any intention of catching up with his son, who was about to go on a long journey.
A trace of emotion flashed through his heart.
"Let's go."
It was as if he had expected Ying Zheng to ignore him.
Ying Changqing, who had been in the carriage the entire time and had never shown his face, gave the order.
The wheels began to move slowly.
There were a few men who looked like Ying Changqing's personal guards guarding the carriage.
Ying Changqing's two maids also mounted their horses.
In addition, Ying Zheng had also sent some people.
The vast convoy of envoys raised a cloud of dust.
He disappeared from everyone's sight.
"For this mission to Great Qin, we need to pass through Great Han, Great Sui, and other countries.”
"The Great Han has always had many conflicts with the Great Tang. Why hasn't Your Majesty sent more people to protect the Seventh Young Master?”
"That's right. I saw that the guards around the Seventh Young Master don't seem to be very good at fighting.”
Li Si, who was standing on the spot, heard the officials muttering behind him.
