Chapter 225 Snobbery

Although time was tight, Zhang Ning got up early in the morning to inspect the military camps and participate in various disputes in the Senate; but when he learned that Miao Envoy Bai Ju was going to meet him again, he still put down everything in his hand and returned to the inner house, waiting to meet her.

(Pure text)

It started drizzling this morning. It was raining very little. It was not wet without an umbrella when going out, but the ground outside was wet.

When he walked on the corridor of the county yamen house, he turned around and found that there were a few small yellow petals on the ground in the yard next to the road. He couldn't help but watch, and looked up and looked around. Only then did he find that there was a forsythia in one corner among the flowers and trees in the yard, but the flowers on the flowers and trees had almost withered.

I have lived in Cili County for so long and I have only seen it now, but when I discovered it, the flowering period has passed.

Zhang Ning couldn't help feeling sad and regretful.Perhaps it was his reaction to his mood, but it wouldn't be easy to hurt the spring and fall when he was another time. Emotions are often just emotions.

At this moment, a voice chanted: Stones are turned into mud and crushed into dust, and only the fragrance remains the same.

Zhang Ning turned his head to look when he heard the sound, and saw Bai Ju, the envoy of Miao and the deputy envoy walked out of the wing room. When she saw her observing the petals on the ground, she chanted a lyric.

Although it is a bit far-fetched to use the words of Plum Blossoms here, it surprised Zhang Ning somewhat.

He really didn't have the mood to recite poems and agree, but he was unwilling to show a hint of impatientness in front of the Miaozi. He pointed to the small yellow petals he had just seen and said casually: Flowers, plants and trees all have their destiny, and everything in the world is like this.

Bai Ju's eyes looked upwards and thoughtful, as if he was experiencing the meaning of that sentence.

She did change her clothes today, but to outsiders, there seemed to be no difference. Most people would not care about the differences in the patterns on her clothes; the scarf on the hat was indeed very different.

The color has turned white and more transparent...

When she can see the things around her more clearly, others can also look at her face in a rough look.

Melon-shaped face, single eyelids.

The skin on his face was whiter than all the Miao and Tujia people Zhang Ning had ever seen.

It is said that because most of their villages are built on the mountain, they are so inconvenient to use water that many people do not take a bath all year round and their skin is darker, and people in a few areas have even yellow teeth. However, this Bai Ju does not seem to be like this. Perhaps it is because of the better living conditions as a close servant of Princess Miao?

I was about to go to the study room to pay my respects, but I happened to meet you here and met you.

Bai Ju stood in the corridor and made a fortune far away, his posture very similar.

Then he walked towards Zhang Ning, and Zhang Ning hurriedly clasped his fists and returned the greeting.

She was looking at Zhang Ning intentionally or unintentionally.

Although there is no bright sunshine today, the light outside in broad daylight is also very good, and the gauze covering her face is much more transparent, so you can see Zhang Ning clearly.

Sure enough, he was not as tough as a warlord as he guessed, but he lacked the temperament of a Han Confucian scholar. Bai Ju couldn't tell what kind of feeling he felt. In short, he felt very special at first glance, and very different from others.

The green robe he wore was ironed very flat, with straight marks left by folded clothes printed on the hem, and the white lining gave people the impression of being separated and neat. When you look closely at the material of the clothes was just ordinary cotton, and the decorations were as simple as a jade pendant on the belt, but such a simple dress could bring out a temperament with identity.

A handsome face, sword eyebrows and deep eye sockets have a restrained heroic spirit. His straight nose and lips seem to be a little conceited, but there is something clearly sympathetic in his eyes.

Bai Ju was stunned for a moment, and his mood suddenly became a little confused. He couldn't help but wonder why such a person had such a pity.Maybe it was forced by Duke Cheng Guo Zhu Yong's official army?

She thought to herself: This person is not annoying at all.

The envoy asked to sit in the study room.Zhang Ning made an invitation.After he brought Bai Ju and others into the house, he shouted, "Come on, come, serve tea."

At this time, Bai Ju asked softly: Since you are the third prince of Emperor Jianwen, I heard that you have been an official in the government?

After hearing this, Zhang Ning thought for a moment and said: Since ancient times, most uprisingers have pretended to be banners. At the end of the Qin Dynasty, there was an uprising army who beat the emperor's eldest son Fusu.However, I am the son of Emperor Jianwen, and I am indeed aware of it. Because I have a close connection with my old ministers, all my identities cannot be forged, so I can trust them.

I didn't mean that.Bai Judao, I heard that Han people need to take the exam for their official careers and their academic backgrounds are also very strict. How can the government let you become an official?It would be fine if Your Highness didn't want to say it.

Zhang Ning was slightly surprised, but he still replied: When my mother fell in Nanjing, she adopted me to a commoner's home. My surname was Zhang before.

Bai Ju nodded and said: So that's it.I said that I was growing up at other families when I was a child, and I only returned to the Bai family after I grew up...

Zhang Ning thought to himself that Zhu Yong's main force was about to arrive in Yongding Acropolis, why did I want to talk nonsense with a Miao girl here?

But then I thought about it again. According to experience, when a woman asks her questions and wants to know about her, it is probably because she is interested in you or is interested in you.

Is this Bai Ju meaningful?

It looks good just by looking at it, but the time is wrong. If she was really just a close servant next to Bai Fengjiao, it would not be of much significance to hook up with her; if Chen Maocai, who was responsible for dealing with the Miao people, had a good time with a maid next to Bai Fengjiao, perhaps it would have been useful.

I won’t go to the Three Treasures Hall without any trouble. Miss Bai met me today, so I must have something to say, right?

Zhang Ning said kindly.

Since King Miao sent an envoy for the second time, he should have wanted to reach a relationship, otherwise there would be no need to do so.

After hearing this, Bai Ju was still embarrassed for a moment and said: There is indeed something to make a statement in person. After we discussed yesterday, we decided to give Your Highness a suggestion: If you don’t want to decide the victory and defeat with Zhu Yong for the time being, you can go south to Gaodu County; and then defeat the official army of Longtou Temple with the Miao army from east to west. If this can be done, we can join forces to deal with Zhu Yong’s official army together.

King Miao was willing to join forces with our army to attack the Longtou Temple official army and join forces together... Zhang Ning immediately became energetic and hurriedly asked, "Did King Miao decide this beforehand?"Why is such an important matter not mentioned in the document?

Bai Ju shook his head gently and said seriously: Although the king is not aware of it for the time being, I can make the decision on this matter.Your Highness can trust you. After you go south, I can definitely convince King Miao to finally agree to this matter.

Zhang Ning was immediately surprised. What could a maid next to Bai Fengjiao decide?

If that is true, then how much authority does Bai Fengjiao have in the Miao people have?

It is estimated that King Miao is a puppet and she can take over the power.

But there is almost no such possibility. If a woman who is too young has great power, there are only two possible opportunities, one is based on her parents and the other is based on her husband's favor.

Bai Fengjiao's power can only come from King Miao, and it cannot be higher than King Miao.

Since that's the case, why did Bai Ju dare to go to Haikou?

She just spoke nonsense, and it was too ridiculous to be a messenger for such an unreliable person...

There is another possibility that Bai Ju, who claims to be a maid, is Bai Fengjiao!

The noble envoy is the daughter of King Miao?Zhang Ning couldn't help asking.

Bai Ju hesitated for a moment and said: I am the envoy of King Miao.

The noble envoy came to discuss the alliance on behalf of King Miao. What you mean is King Miao, you are not respectful.

Zhang Ning hurriedly said, "By the way, there are musicians in the army. After dinner today, I asked Miss Bai to come and listen to the musicians' performance?"

Seeing Zhang Ning's attitude suddenly become enthusiastic, she felt a little angry and said coldly: Didn't your highness say that the situation is urgent and everything is urgent, but still have the intention to listen to the musicians' performance?I'm afraid that it will delay your business, so let it go; maybe you can discuss it with your subordinates tonight in order to reply to our proposal.

Zhang Ning nodded, and couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.

Usually, he often talks nonsense with others and does not care about other people's identities. Today, he shows a snobbish image. It's a big mistake.

Bai Ju was obviously interested in his private affairs just now. What can he delay saying a few more words?

It is very likely that Bai Ju is Bai Fengjiao, the only daughter of King Miao. According to Chen Maocai's previous information, he has great power among the Miao people and has a great influence in front of King Miao. If Bai Fengjiao can get the friendship of him and ask her to help him, it will not be impossible for the coalition forces to deal with Zhu Yong.

And if she wants, what's wrong with marrying her and borrowing soldiers?

At this time, Bai Ju stood up and said politely: It is inconvenient to disturb Your Highness too much, so I will leave first and wait for Your Highness's reply.

I'll send you back.Zhang Ning said hurriedly.

Bai Ju said coldly: We live in the wing room, a few steps away, Your Highness doesn’t have to be too polite, please stay.

Zhang Ning had no choice but to agree.

He thought about how he seduced women in the past. Luo Moniang, Fang Ling, and even the women such as Taohua Fairy and Zhao Erniang all agreed secretly, by the way, how did he do it in the first place?

He thought for a long time but couldn't figure it out. When he really needed to hook up with a woman, he was helpless and extremely helpless.

March south?

It would be reliable if you could get married.

What, as modern people, shouldn’t love be used as a tool?

Faced with an emperor who kills his whole family at any time, and a group of generals under his command, he is just a fairy tale when his life is in full swing.

Zhang Ning immediately went to the Senate to discuss the matter, but he only said that he had reached an alliance with the Miao people, and it was the Miao King's intention to make the Suzaku army move closer to the Miao army.

Everyone needs a hope, instead of holding on to the small place of Cili County, a passive resistance or wandering around aimlessly.
