    ?

    Although Li Da smiled, his words were very desolate.  Li Xian was also surprised. This time he did not say that he would be a monk and choose the cemetery for himself.

    Li Xian said: "Your Majesty, please don't make such a joke. Your Majesty is in the right age now, so why do you say these unlucky words?"

    Li Da smiled and said: "Saints do not shy away from death. Although we are not saints, we have a destiny of life and death. Who can be exempted?"

    Chen Lu heard the implication of Li Da's words. It seemed that Li Da had no desire to become an immortal. He was just looking for an opportunity.

    "If there is a chance, I really want to cultivate there, live out my life, and be buried there after my death. It will not be a waste of time for me to come to this world." Li Da felt that he could not stop the car.  Li Xian quickly changed the subject and then gave up.

    After lunch, Chen Lu came to the Sifangyuan. Only Tongzhi was here. They were all acquaintances. Chen Lu asked about the admiral. Tongzhi invited Chen Luyan into the prison cell and told Chen Lu that the admiral was a young man and a senior official of the Prime Minister.  Young master, his name is Asahei.  I rarely work here, and I basically work on free wages.

    Chen Lu knew all these things well and joked: "Then you will be the actual boss. You should be happy."

    This official, who is nearly fifty years old, said: "To be honest, Mr. Chen, I am very satisfied with my job. If it weren't for your help, I would never be able to do anything in my life."

    Chen Lu waved his hand and explained his purpose of coming. He wanted to meet with the envoys from various countries here and invite them to have a drink in the camp another day.

    Tongzhi's eyes shone brightly and he said: "This is a good thing. They have always wanted to get to know the envoys of the Chinese Dynasty. Your deputy envoy has been here twice, and everyone had a great time talking, that is, with the Grand Duke of Gili and the Grand Duke of Kiev.  The envoys are not harmonious enough, and your deputy envoy has a bad temper." After speaking, he looked at Chen Lu with a smile.

    This is a slander, Chen Lu knew it in his heart, and it was also a disguised criticism. As a diplomat, this is a taboo.

    But Chen Lu made no excuses and said with a smile: "Who has no temper? Don't you? Why can't you survive after so many years? Isn't it because of your temper? You also know that I have been a diplomatic envoy for so many years.  , I lose my temper when I disagree. But you have also seen that I have friends all over the world. They are just two princes, not to mention envoys. I know they are not on good terms with you, so don¡¯t worry, take care of me. Not only are I with you  To sign a treaty of friendship, the envoy must come to the capital for an audience."

    This is self-confidence, confidence in one¡¯s own qualities, and confidence in the Celestial Empire.

    Tongzhi looked at him doubtfully, thinking that he didn't understand what the Grand Duchy was.

    The Grand Duchy is just a name, but it is actually a sovereign and independent country.  They belonged to a divided empire, just like the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period of the Celestial Dynasty, each of which had its own affairs.  But they were all too shameless to declare themselves kings.  Unlike the Warring States period, when the fig leaf was finally torn off, even the princes felt that they were underestimating themselves, so they all became princes, but the emperor of Zhou could not control it.

    Chen Lu saw what he meant, pointed at him and smiled, but said nothing.  He waved his hand to the outside, asked him to wait, and walked out. Soon, envoys from various countries came to the prison room, some of whom they knew, including envoys from Damascus.  Only two envoys from the principalities were missing, not even a single soldier.

    After everyone exchanged warm greetings, Chen Lu solemnly extended an invitation to hold a banquet at the mission tomorrow night to entertain the envoys. The Chinese Ambassador wants to meet with you.

    Everyone obviously felt something was different. The Celestial Dynasty had formed a group to fool people. They brought their troops and horses and lived in the barracks, and all the expenses were accounted for by the royal court.  They also heard about it, and the king specifically ordered two sets of winter clothes to be made for each person, according to the clothing style of the Celestial Dynasty.  Envoys from various countries were envious.

    Everyone happily agreed.  Tongzhi promised that he would arrange carriages and horses.  Of course, these are all polite words. Every envoy has his own car, which is also a declaration of sovereignty.

    Chen Lu sent the envoys away and said that he was going to visit the two envoys from the principality and the envoy from Damascus.  Tongzhi was stunned for a moment, and then gave Chen Lu a thumbs up.  Chen Lu is a deputy envoy, so his low stature does not matter. In terms of rank, after all, they are all envoys.

    Tongzhi and Chen Lu came to visit together, which really surprised these envoys.  Chen Lu laughed, cursed, and made jokes, fooling these people into confusion.  Chen Lu sounded like an old man. Not only did others not feel disgusted, but they found him to be straightforward and sincere.

    Chen Lum worked non-stop and brought his own soldiers to the official office of Duwei. Duwei Laoben was a complete anti-China faction and was a close friend of Prime Minister Harazhang.

    But those were all things that were not on the table. Chen Lu arrived. He was an old acquaintance and represented the Celestial Dynasty. Three cannons were fired and the middle door opened wide.  Chen Lu played some fancy tricks for a while, conveyed the intention of the envoy, and then solemnly invited him to the banquet tomorrow night.

    ?I was very happy and agreed happily.

    Chen Lu came to Zhisu Duwei Yamen without stopping. Li Xian had already been here once.  It is not necessary for the officials to go to the Yamen to manage the affairs, but to manage the Su Duwei Yamen, they must arrive first.  There must be a saying that people provide the mission with good grass and good materials.  Li first came to express his gratitude.  Some gifts and gold and silver were also given.

    Three cannon shots were fired, and the middle door was opened wide. Captain Yelu Wuji welcomed him in. The two were old friends. Chen Lu "thrown himself into a trap". How could Yelu Wuji let him go so easily!  When the time came, Yelu Wuji ordered the food and wine to be cooked.

    Chen Lu had something on his mind, so he had to go to the Governor's Mansion and pay a visit. This was etiquette, and people should not be left behind when they leave. There were three governor's mansions, and one could not be left behind. He was going to the governor's mansion.

    This is purely a courtesy visit.  Then he also got the Criminal Ming Division, which was an errand, and it was Hu Yantong's problem.  Tulu has been killed by Li Dalingchi, and Hu Yantong seems to have evaporated from the world.  Chen Lu suspected that he had been rescued in the Prime Minister's Mansion, but was hidden by A Shahei.

    Chen Lu was fully prepared this time.  This person must be caught and brought to justice.

    Yelu Wuji had no choice but to let him go and said: "After you finish all these errands, your food will be ready. At that time, we got drunk and went to the governor's house to call my son and come with him."

    Chen Lu agreed, said goodbye, came to the Governor's Mansion, said a few words, invited him to a banquet tomorrow, and then left.

    Ye Luqiang sent it out and handed Chen Lu the letter stamped with the seal of the Governor's Office. Chen Lu told him to go back to Zhisu Yamen for a drink later and asked him to go with him.  Chen Lu wanted him to go there now, but Ye Luqiang was worried because he was afraid that the people in the Criminal Ming Division would not buy it and insisted on going with Chen Lu.

    Chen Lu came to the Criminal Ming Division. The level of this yamen was not high, it was just a fourth-rank official, which was much lower than the same yamen in the Celestial Dynasty.  In the Celestial Dynasty, there were six departments, namely, the Ministry of Punishment, the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Husbandry, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Military Affairs, the Ministry of Punishment, and the Ministry of Work, and the second-rank yamen.

    Chen Lu arrived, and the admiral sent someone to take him in. Chen Lu explained the purpose of his visit: "Our Chinese mission set out from Suzhou, and this Huyantong has been following us. He colluded with the bandit Tulu, killed people and stole goods, and committed all kinds of evil. Our mission began to suffer from  There was no whereabouts of him. Later I was able to trace him and found out that he was an official of your country. Our envoy was in a difficult position and beat the dog to see the owner. In the end, we decided to protect our envoy and inform your Yamen when we get here.  You go handle it." (Remember this website address: www.hlnovel.com
