Transmigration: To Be His Man

Chapter 182 Mission of the Western Barbarians

Seeing the two masters enter, the attendant quickly brought out hot water and hot tea.

Qin Mian washed his hands and came to the table, opening the box on the table and smiled. The pancake was a round, thin, even pancake with a straight groove pressed in the middle. The pancake was covered with a sweet chili sauce, which meant it was auspicious and tasty. It was well-known throughout the capital city.

Lei Tia was still washing his hands when he picked up a cake to try it, "The taste is indeed very delicious." He then picked one up and walked over to Lei Tia, leaned on the screen, and placed it next to his mouth.

Lei Tia's eyes focused on him, and moved closer to bite the cake he had eaten.

The two of them shared the food between the six, and Lei Tia told them about the news he had gotten from the palace.

One could tell that the loyal king was a troublesome figure who coveted for the throne. If one was targeted by such a person, one mustn't be passive and take a beating.

"Wife, when are you free? Add some knockout drugs." Lei Tia incanted a soundproofing technique, causing the people outside the room to be unable to hear a single sound.

Qin Mian was startled, "What do you plan to do?"

Lei Tia's calm voice revealed some certainty. "From the words of the Emperor and the Prince Ming, we can roughly conclude that it is because of a certain reason that the Emperor and King Zhong are in a stalemate and do not dare to act rashly. Let Prince Zhong pass out and take this opportunity to see the situation clearly. " What he did not finish was, if the Emperor Xiao Hui summoned him to the battlefield to resolve his internal problems, then the time would be ripe. After the war, he would find a way to resign.

Qin Mian nodded. No matter what, the Emperor Xiao Hui was right and proper for the emperor. If the loyal king were to rebel, the capital would immediately be thrown into chaos. Even if they did not like Emperor Xiao Hui, they could not lay their hands on him, and could only rely on him.

"I'll go in and take a look now."

A few days later, when the morning assembly was over, the Emperor Xiao Hui had just left the Supreme Harmony Hall and came to the imperial study. The servant reported from outside, "Reporting to the Emperor, the National Duke wishes to see you."

Emperor Xiao Hui was a little surprised, "Xuan."

After a while, Lei Tia came in from outside and greeted them politely.

"National Duke, please rise." Emperor Xiao Hui asked, "Why has National Duke requested to see us?"

Lei Tia replied: "Reporting to Your Majesty, this subject has the gall to ask Your Majesty, why did you suddenly summon this subject back to the capital?"

Emperor Xiao Hui smiled as he was about to hold the teacup, "I thought National Duke would be able to keep his composure."

Lei Tia said: "This subject has a family now. The death of the Madam Du has yet to be determined. "

Because he did not find out who killed Madam Du and was worried that the culprit would threaten the people he cared about, he could not stay calm. This was equivalent to exposing his weakness in front of the Emperor Xiao Hui. The smile in Emperor Xiao Hui's eyes became more sincere, and his trust towards Lei Tia increased.

"Li Fushu, give your seat to National Duke."

"Yes."

Lei Tia sat down quietly.

Emperor Xiao Hui asked: "Lei Dai Ren, how are the three armies?"

Lei Tia said: "I will do everything according to Your Majesty's orders."

Emperor Xiao Hui muttered to himself, "In half a month, the envoys sent by Turow Country will arrive in the capital to help the Sixth Prince marry the princess. As far as I know, the Sixth Prince is in the midst of his entourage. In recent years, his Turow Country have been unstable ?? If anything happens to the Sixth Prince while he is in the Grand Xia Country ?? Lei Aimin is prepared to receive the Sixth Prince in advance, no one can make the slightest mistake. "

The Turow Country was a nation that the people of Grand Xia Country called the "Western Barbarian". It was bordering on the Grand Xia Country, and although the region was wide, it was extremely cold in winter, and there were many deserts. Since ancient times, they had always coveted the extent of the Grand Xia Country, which was why there were often wars at the borders. Back then, when Lei Tia was the General Dingxi, he defeated the Western barbarians three times. However, those of the West Barbarian Kingdom were bloodthirsty and valiant. They might not be willing to give up.

The meaning behind Emperor Xiao Hui's words were obvious. He was worried that the Sixth Prince was actually the abandoned son of the Western Barbarian Kingdom's Emperor, so once something happened to the Sixth Prince within the Grand Xia Country, his Turow Country would become famous. At the borders, smoke would rise once again.

However, Lei Tia's heart trembled. Emperor Xiao Hui's plan would not be so simple. Could it be ??

"Yes, your subject obeys."

Emperor Xiao Hui revealed a look of concern, "As for the matter of the Madam Du, we will look into it with the Ministry of Justice. Lei Liutian need not be too worried. "

"Yes, this subject thanks Your Majesty."

Lei Tia had nothing else to say. After kneeling down to rest, he left the imperial study.

Not long after Lei Tia left, an attendant hastily ran into the royal study room.

"Reporting to the emperor, Prince Zhong is in critical condition!"

Eunuch Lee raised his eyebrows, filled with suspicion. Prince Zhong was the emperor's sore point, how could he coincidentally be in such critical condition?

"What?" The Emperor Xiao Hui was shocked, he slapped the table and successfully suppressed the joy in his heart, and said angrily, "What's going on? It wasn't every three days that the imperial physician would request for a safe meridians? Why would Loyalty King suddenly be in critical danger? "

"About an hour ago, Prince Zhong was taking a walk in the garden at home. For some reason, he suddenly fell unconscious. Crown Prince Zhong immediately sent someone to get an imperial physician, but who knew that four imperial physicians in a row wouldn't be able to tell what kind of illness the Prince was suffering from? "

Emperor Xiao Hui slowly sat down and asked about the details. "Suddenly being unconscious is like falling into a deep sleep? It sounds more like poison than an emergency. What do you think about Duke Zhong Palace? "

The attendant continued, "Crown Prince Zhong also suspected that the Prince Zhong was poisoned. He interrogated everyone in the manor close to the Prince Zhong within four hours. No one was suspicious."

Emperor Xiao Hui looked flabbergasted as he glanced at Eunuch Lee, "This is really strange. Is it really a strange disease? "

Pausing for a moment, he continued, "Immediately order the Imperial Physician Qin to go to the Duke Zhong Palace."

"Yes." The attendant quickly retreated.

Emperor Xiao Hui pondered for a moment, "Someone come."

A black shadow suddenly appeared in the royal study. He was wearing a mask and was kneeling in front of the imperial desk without making a sound.

"Where is National Duke now?"

The black clothed man's voice was flat and unremarkable, "Nangong entrance."

Emperor Xiao Hui calculated in his heart how much time had passed since Lei Tia left the room and he muttered to himself, "It can't be him ??" He then asked, "What has the National Duke's Madam been up to recently?"

The man in black said, "Everyday, go to the Ru Yi pharmacy and the Pearl Pavilion. Other than that, you rarely go out. There is nothing out of the ordinary about the National Duke's Mansion either. "

Emperor Xiao Hui nodded his head. He had complete confidence in the hidden guards that he had personally raised.

"Step down."

After the hidden guards retreated, Emperor Xiao Hui looked at Eunuch Lee meaningfully.

Eunuch Lee bent his back in understanding and left in a hurry ??

Lei Tia returned to the National Duke's Mansion. Upon seeing Qin Mian who was practicing martial arts on the training grounds, he quietly stood to the side and watched, until he retracted his last move.

As the husband and wife spoke, they walked side by side towards the i

er courtyard. In fact, they were communicating by voice at the same time. The most important thing was the sound transmission.

"Tia, how is it?"

"All is well. The Emperor said that in another half a month ?? in case something went wrong with the Sixth Prince's Grand Xia Country. "

Qin Mian was shocked, "I'm listening, why do I feel like the Emperor Xiao Hui and the Emperor of the Turow Country have the same plan?"

Lei Tia nodded, "It's exactly as I thought."

"In that case, the Emperor Xiao Hui must sacrifice a princess." Qin Mian said, "As far as I know, the only unmarried princesses left were Princess Yan Qing and Princess Duan Ning ??"

He suddenly laughed out loud, "Could it be that Emperor Xiao Hui plans to go to Princess Yan Qing to reconcile?"

"The Sixth Prince has his eyes on her?" Lei Tia was suspicious.

"Hahaha ??" Qin Mian laughed uncontrollably. How come he didn't realize that his family's facial paralysis had such a venomous tongue? "Princess Yan Qing and Princess Duan Ning are the same empress's first daughter, so their statuses are very high. However, Princess Duan Ning's mother is the current empress, so the empress will definitely try her best to protect her. She has an even greater advantage than the Princess Yan Qing. The possibility for the Emperor to allow the Princess Yan Qing to tie the knot is not low. "

Two days later, news came from the capital that the strange illness of the loyal king had been cured by an ordinary doctor in the Imperial Hospital. He had gone mad.

Qin Mian immediately guessed what the Emperor Xiao Hui did. The knockout drugs he concocted were not difficult to cure. The goal was to gain a say in the affairs of the Emperor Xiao Hui. However, he did not expect that the Emperor Xiao Hui would use this opportunity to make the Loyal King go crazy. Prince Zhong Wang was Emperor Xiao Hui's half-brother. If Emperor Xiao Hui were to kill him, it would affect his reputation, so the choice to make him go crazy was no longer a threat.

On the afternoon of the day when King Zhong had gone mad, another message came from the capital: a plague had struck a hidden iron ore ten miles away from the capital, killing nearly a hundred people.

Qin Mian heard from Lei Tia that those people were actually soldiers secretly trained by the loyal king. Their main leaders were all killed in one fell swoop by the Emperor Xiao Hui, and nearly twenty thousand people surrendered. Prince Zhong's group was severely injured.

The commoners did not notice the undercurrents in the capital, but upon hearing that there was a plague, some became anxious. After three to five days, they calmed down when they saw that there were no movements from the officials or nobles in the capital.

It was already July when the Turow Country envoys entered the capital.

The border army had escorted the diplomatic mission to the Misty Mountain City, which was ten days away from the capital. They successfully crossed paths with Lei Tia, who then escorted the diplomatic mission to the capital.

Two days before they arrived at the capital, every hour or so, a messenger would ride towards the palace to update the emperor on the latest movements of the diplomatic mission.

Hearing this commotion, the people of the capital knew that an envoy from Turow Country was coming. They did not have a favorable impression of the Western barbarians, and maintained a tacit smile on their faces to show their welcome to the envoys of another country. The main streets of the capital were decorated as well. There were lanterns and decorations, as if it was a festival.

On the day that the regiment arrived in the capital, Qin Mian specifically gave Qin Ruiqi and a leave of absence, and they stayed in the crowd to watch. It wasn't that he didn't value the two children's studies, but he didn't want them to miss some of the interesting experiences of their childhood, so that they could have more beautiful memories when they grew up. There was no hurry to delay the day's work.

Qin Mian, Qin Ruiqi and Lei Ruilin were riding on Golden Fur's back, so no one could squeeze through them. Such a huge bear that weighed at least a thousand jin and was incomparably ferocious. Who would dare to squeeze them? What's more, there was a proud and aloof giant wolf by his side.

The father and son duo wore handsome camouflage clothing. Only a small portion of the commoners around them were staring in the direction of the city gate, while the majority were staring at the dazzling father and son duo.

The gongs and drums of the celebration were getting closer.

A commoner shouted, "They're here!"

Qin Ruiqi and Lei Ruilin looked forward to it.

Qin Mian laughed and rubbed the two little fellows' heads. If he didn't expose their thoughts, they would prefer to see their old man. Well, he admitted it was the father he most wanted to see.

The person on the left was about twenty-two or three years old. He was young and handsome, and his clothes were luxurious. The gems on his head were dazzling under the sunlight, and he was the Sixth Prince of the Turow Country, Liu Qing Man. The person on the right had sharp eyebrows and eyes that were cold and resolute. He was dressed in a suit of armor and looked extremely mighty.

"Father, it's father!" Qin Ruiqi and Lei Ruilin shouted excitedly.

Lei Ruilin was so excited that his face turned red, "Dad is so mighty!"

"Shh, lower your voice. You can't steal our guest's limelight." Qin Mian warned her softly as he looked at the man who was slowly approaching with infatuation.

Lei Tia saw his daughter-in-law and sons in the crowd with a glance, but he still didn't have much of an expression on his face. His gentle gaze fixated on his daughter-in-law and sons for a long time.

Qin Mian, Qin Ruiqi and Lei Ruilin all understood that he was saying that he was doing very well the past few days they had left.

The father and son duo smiled and nodded at him.

Lei Tia only retracted his gaze when the stallion passed by.

Blondie was outside the crowd, following the line.

On the other side of the street, Chen Mufeng looked at the father and son pair on the Golden Fur, and felt envy from the bottom of his heart. He had seen the interaction between the family of four clearly.

"Mufeng?" Zhangsun Hee followed his line of sight and looked over, his expression slightly contracted as he asked gently, "What's wrong?"

Chen Mufeng said indifferently: "Nothing."

"Envy?" Zhangsun Hee stared straight at him, "We can also be like them."

"My royal father only has one son." Chen Mufeng said indifferently.

Zhangsun Hee's expression immediately darkened.
