well as a pot of fine tea.If one were to judge solely based on this scene, everyone would probably think that this was a prosperous and powerful era, rather than a turbulent age of natural disasters...Chapter 938: Jin Country, Huangji Heaven
Upon hearing Li Chen's words, Wan Jiaojiao laughed, her eyes curving into crescent moons.
"This servant knew that Your Highness would surely have a way."
It seems that in Wan Jiaojiao's mind, her Prince is invincible and nothing can challenge him.
At this moment, Xu Junlou walked in from outside.
Your Highness.
Xu Junlou bowed and then said, "The Jin envoy requests an audience."
Li Chen raised an eyebrow and said, "Please come in."
From now on, this palace will see no one else. No commoners shall approach the Xizheng Hall within ten paces. Anyone who dares to enter without permission will be executed.
Xu Junlou's expression turned serious, he respectfully took the order and retreated.
After a moment, a line of people entered the Xizheng Hall led by Xu Junlin.
This group of three people consisted of two elderly men in their fifties serving as attendants to a young man.
Look at the braids on these three people's heads, Li Chen had a moment of daze, feeling as if he had stumbled into a Qing dynasty palace drama he had watched in his past life.
There's no way around it, this nation's hairstyles are just so memorable.
"The thirteenth prince of the Jin Kingdom, Aisin Gioro Huangjitian, has met His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince of Da Qin. May His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince of the Da Qin Empire, enjoy good fortune and auspiciousness."
As the legitimate heir of the Jin Dynasty, Huangji Tian Shen was very well-mannered. After entering the Hall of Studying Government, he first introduced himself and his lineage, followed by a proper greeting and bow.
Looking at the delicate and handsome Emperor Jitian before him, Li Chen said, "You don't need to be so polite, please take a seat."
The Sovereign of the Heavenly Pole obeys your words and sits down.
Li Chen is the Crown Prince of the Qin Dynasty, and essentially an imperial prince. Huangji Tian is the thirteenth son of the current emperor of the Jin Kingdom, also an imperial prince. Their status is equal, so there's nothing wrong with them sitting down for a chat.
The prince of Qin.
Huangji Tian bowed to Li Chen and initiated the conversation: "How is Emperor Qin's health"
""
Li Chen nodded and said, "I can often wake up for a short time. The imperial physician also said that the Emperor's dragon body is slowly recovering, and I believe that it won't be long before he recovers completely."
Of course that's nonsense.
The emperor's safety is crucial for national stability and will directly influence how nations like Liao and Jin view the Qin Dynasty.
So, even though it was all nonsense, Li Chen still had the audacity to keep talking without changing his expression.
He knew that the Jin Kingdom had its own intelligence network, but when it came to the emperor's health, this was the empire's top secret. Even if the Jin Kingdom knew something, they would definitely only know half the story and couldn't truly understand the situation.
As expected, Huangji Tian was taken aback by the words.
Obviously, the information he received from Li Chen contradicted his own knowledge.
But that was only for a fleeting moment. Huangji Tian quickly suppressed the surprise in his eyes, and instead, smiled and said, "It's truly heaven's blessing. The Emperor of Qin is immensely blessed, so naturally he's unharmed."
Saying that, he turned around and beckoned with his hand. An elderly man over half a century old from behind took out a lacquered box and presented it to the center of the Xizheng Hall. He bowed deeply, holding the box in both hands in a respectful gesture of offering.
The voice of Huangjitian followed.
“This is a snow lotus we, the Jinn, obtained from the peak of the Heavenly Mountains. It's an extremely rare herb with a gentle and lasting medicinal effect, more precious than ginseng. Although it may not be able to bring back the flesh from the bone, it should certainly help Emperor Qin recover sooner. Please accept this gift, your Highness.”oice. He saw a middle-aged man in silk clothes, glittering with jewels and adorned with gold, silver, and jade, walking out of the rice shop.This man was thin, but he liked to adorn himself with extra...
