Chapter 297 Farewell Walking into Empress Xiao's tent and seeing everything inside, Chen Shou nodded, very satisfied with Ji Song's arrangement.
In any case, Queen Xiao was also the real queen of the previous dynasty, so she still had to receive the treatment she deserved, otherwise there would always be people gossiping about her.
Although it is harmless, His Majesty must not look good on his face.
The Tang Dynasty inherited the throne obtained by the former Sui Dynasty. Even if it was forced, it still had to have the dignity it deserved.
At this time, there were quite a few veterans of the previous dynasty in the court. Some of those people were highly respected and some held military power. Xiao Yu, one of the prime ministers of the current dynasty, was also Empress Xiao's nephew.
If Ji Song dares to neglect you, these people won't dare to do anything openly, but it's not surprising at all to give you a stumbling block secretly.
"Slave Chen Shou, I have met Madam!"
Chen Shou had already had an idea about the title of Empress Xiao. Whether it was Queen or something else, it was not appropriate. Calling her Mrs. as a normal title was not wrong.
"How dare people who have subjugated their country bother you with your gift?"
Only then did Ji Song have the opportunity to see Empress Xiao's true face. Last time, she was in a miserable state and there was nothing interesting to see. This time, she realized that although Empress Xiao was old and yellow, she could still vaguely see her former grace.
"Madam, you are serious. No matter what you say, you were once a nobleman of Tianhuang. How can you dare to violate the rules as a slave?"
Hearing Chen Shou's words, Empress Xiao couldn't deny it. She took out a purple gold box from behind her back, looked at it absently, and touched it gently with her hands.
When Chen Shou saw the box, he felt his whole body tremble, and his eyes flashed with light. If His Majesty hadn't told him, he might have started robbing it at this time.
After a while, Empress Xiao opened the box, took out the contents, and motioned to Chen Shou: "Check it!"
Chen Shou was not polite. He just bowed to Empress Xiao and stepped forward to check.
Empress Xiao ignored Chen Shou, but looked at Ji Song, and said softly: "You are the good Marquis Ji Song, right?"
Ji Song was stunned for a moment, then said calmly: "It's the boy!"
Looking at the high-spirited and heroic Ji Song, Empress Xiao seemed to have thought of something, and said warmly: "This period is the quietest day in my life, and thank you for taking care of me these days."
"This is what I should do." Ji Songgong cupped his hands and said.
Ji Song had no prejudice against Empress Xiao. She was also a poor woman. The originally majestic empress of the Sui Dynasty ended up like this. It was really unpredictable.
Seeing that Ji Song had no desire to talk, Empress Xiao smiled bitterly and then became quiet.
If she were an old acquaintance, she could still sarcastically curse him, but what could she say to Ji Song, an unrelated young man? At this time, Chen Shou seemed to be relieved. He gently put down the jade seal, closed the box, and said to Empress Xiao: "Madam, please pack it up. Let's set off tomorrow!"
"So urgent?" Empress Xiao was stunned and said in surprise.
But then he said with a sneer: "That's right! How could he not be anxious about such an important thing?"
"Forget it, just do as you say! I'm going to rest, please do as you please!" After that, he went to the back.
Just a slight stagger shows the desolation in his heart!
After getting out of the big tent, Chen Shou said: "This matter is of great importance. Please ask the Marquis of Hao to send more capable people to the slaves."
Ji seemed to know that he would say this, and waved to Wang Fang in the distance, beckoning him to come over.
"What are the orders from the manager!" Wang Fang said with cupped hands.
Ji Song pointed at Chen Shou and said: "This is Chen Shou, your majesty's side servant. You should immediately select three hundred soldiers in the selection camp and escort the things back to Chang'an with Chen Shou."
Wang Fang was stunned. He didn't expect that he would be asked to return to Chang'an?But when he saw Chen Shou, he didn't ask any more questions.
Ji Song continued to explain: "You have been very careful along the way. Everything is dominated by Chen's servant. If things are not harmonious, we can do whatever he wants without any hesitation. Do you hear me?" "No!"
Wang Fang responded loudly.
Ji Song nodded, turned and left without saying anything else.
Chen Shou didn't have time to take care of Ji Song. He still had to arrange some things, but His Majesty had already told him.
Before dawn the next day, Ji Song heard the noise outside and knew that it was Chen Shou who was about to set off.
As an old acquaintance, I should go and deliver it. I suppressed my sleepiness, got up, washed briefly, and left the tent.
Chen Shou was not surprised to see Ji Song come out. Based on his understanding of Ji Song, he still had this kind of etiquette and would never be careless about it.
Seeing Chen Shou with a somewhat solemn expression, Ji Song pretended to smile casually and said: "Don't worry, these people were brought out by me alone. If anything happens on the way, just leave it to them."
Chen Shou smiled bitterly and said: "You also know what this is. If anything goes wrong on the way, it is better for me to be careful as to how I will go to meet His Majesty."
When Ji Song saw him saying this, he said nothing more.
Soon everything was ready, even Princess Yicheng’s frame was ready to go.
He had seen Princess Yicheng's bicycle frame a long time ago, but he had no intention of passing it.
He has said everything that needs to be said. If she still doesn't know what to do, Ji Song can't do anything.
"You stay in the grassland for a while first. His Majesty is still not worried about this place. Please keep an eye on it more." Chen Shou warned Ji Song.
"You can squeeze me as hard as you can! See if I don't take a long vacation of a year and a half when I go back, otherwise you won't be able to bear the hardships I endured in the grassland." Ji Song said angrily.
Chen Shou didn't care, he just smiled and said: "You'd better be considerate of Your Majesty. You're still out of breath doing something that others can't envy? Don't be ungrateful!"
"Also, a large number of officials will come to the grassland in a while. When they arrive, you can return to Chang'an."
Ji Song said impatiently: "Okay, okay, you go quickly! Wait for them to come? Wait for them to pick my fruits?"
"Hey, who asked you to do more work if you are capable?" Chen Shou said a little embarrassed.
Your Majesty did indeed do something unreasonable. Last time about what happened at Sinong Temple, Ji Song had laid a good foundation and was just waiting to pick the fruits. You kicked him to the grassland.
This time, Ji Song had almost finished the market and other things, so he immediately sent someone to replace him.
Fortunately, this person is Ji Song. If it had been anyone else, you would have given up the job a long time ago.
Everyone knows that Haojihou Jisong is just working for free now, and his merits are of no use, as there will be no rewards anyway.
Even if your Majesty is embarrassed, just give him something to express your gratitude. Don't even think about other things like titles, official positions, money, etc.
His Majesty would not dare to use the title if he were to be promoted further at his age. If it really comes to the point where there is no reward and no promotion, that would be troublesome.
Nowadays, a marquis is neither big nor small, and he has a promise not to be promoted to a noble title for 20 years. How can he be so bossy?
"Okay, don't give me a high hat. I, Ji Song, don't accept this trick. You go back and ask Your Majesty. I won't want any other rewards this time, but I must have something for my marriage, otherwise I won't be able to get married." Do it!" Ji Song said with a dark face.
"Don't worry, Lord Marquis, I will definitely bring this to you. See you in Chang'an!"
After saying that, he got on his horse, waved to Ji Song and galloped away into the distance!
