After traveling through time, I became Han Zhang’s grandson?
Chapter 212 Mission
"Then it's probably Marquis Gu and Xiao Liu scolding you!"
Yu Yanran picked up a piece of meat for Han Ming with her chopsticks, rolled her eyes and complained.
"Hehe, let them curse, let them curse, as long as they feel good mentally."
Han Ming ate his meal happily, not caring at all.
"Sir, don't blame me for being nosy. Why should you involve Minglan in your court affairs?"
Yu Yanran's tone, which sounded like an old married couple, made Han Ming look sideways.
"You! Do you know that although what I did was not decent, it did not harm the Sixth Miss?"
"With this responsibility, her life will be much easier in the future. With Zhong Huai's careful care, she will be much happier."
Han Ming reached out and flicked Yu Yanran's head, then stared at Han Duanyang who was fiddling with toys with a deep look in his eyes.
"Perhaps you are thinking long-term, but Minglan isn't someone who needs these things, is she?"
Yu Yanran was a little unsure of what the person next to her was thinking.
"She will need it. There is a knot between her and the Sheng family, so there will always be a time when she will need these."
Han Ming muttered something mysteriously, picked up the bowl and scooped rice into his mouth.
Only Yu Yanran frowned, constantly thinking about the meaning of Han Ming's words.
"By the way, I may need to go out for a while, and it will probably take quite a while. If you are bored, you can go to the Ningyuan Marquis's Mansion to play with the Sixth Miss."
"Of course, if you feel 'tired,' you can let the Sixth Miss live with you. I'm sure no one will say anything."
Han Ming said this casually, calling back Yu Yanran, who was in a trance. When she heard that her husband was going out, she looked at him in surprise.
"Is your Excellency inspecting any government affairs?"
This was the only thing Yu Yanran could think of. After all, the court was implementing new policies, and the situations in different places were different, so it was necessary to go down and conduct on-site inspections.
"This matter is under the responsibility of Jiefu and Junshi. I will not intervene for the time being. The local inspection work is also handled by Master Yao, Liang Jia Liulang, and Changfeng."
Han Ming raised his chopsticks and waved his hand, indicating that he was not in charge of this stall now.
"Then sir..." Yu Yanran asked cautiously.
"I'm going to apply to the government to go north as an envoy to the Liao Kingdom!"
Han Ming's careless words stirred up a storm in Yu Yanran's heart, and the chopsticks in her hand fell to the table.
"What's wrong? I'm not going to war, what am I afraid of?"
Han Ming smiled gently, reached out to touch Yu Yanran's round face, then gently pinched it twice, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "It's so soft."
"Sir, why are you going on a diplomatic mission to Liao for no reason?"
Yu Yanran immediately reached out and grabbed Han Ming's mischievous hand, placed it tightly on her face, and asked worriedly.
"The new policies and military reforms are already on the agenda. I don't think the Liao will let this go. They're bound to fight the Song Dynasty."
"That's why the emperor and I sent Zhong Huai out. We must always be on guard against the enemy."
"But I'm still worried. If Zhong Huai and his men can't stop the Liao cavalry, then the new policies and military reforms we've put so much effort into will be ruined."
"So I thought of going to the Liao Kingdom myself as an envoy to test their strengths and weaknesses, and at the same time, to sow discord among them, so as to slow down their invasion of the Song Dynasty."
Han Ming did not hide anything from Yu Yanran and told her his thoughts clearly.
"But the Liao Kingdom is dangerous. Your Excellency should not risk your life by personally entering the situation!"
After all, Yu Yanran is the child of the old tutor, and with the repeated teachings of the old lady of the Han family and Mrs. Han, she has a very keen political sense.
"I'm willing to let Zhong Huai and Sixth Miss join the game. If I just stand by and watch, that wouldn't be right!"
Han Ming chuckled, pulled Yu Yanran closer to sit, and then put his arm around her shoulders to comfort her.
"Don't worry. Although the Liao Kingdom is a foreign race, it has been deeply rooted in the Central Plains culture for many years. In many aspects, it is no different from the Song Dynasty. It also emphasizes the style of a great power."
"Besides, even when two countries are at war, they still don't kill envoys. Song and Liao are now 'brothers'. If they dare to touch me, I'm afraid they won't be in a good situation either."
"I'm an envoy, I'm here to exchange cultures between our two countries. You won't make things too difficult for me."
"..."
In order to dispel his wife's worries, Han Ming tried his best to analyze his own advantages and the favorable environment for his mission, but he did not mention the current tense situation between Song and Liao.
After all, since the Second Song-Xia War, the Liao Kingdom missed the opportunity and failed to complete the military suppression of the Song Dynasty and the mediation between the two countries. Now the Liao Kingdom is very hostile to the Song Dynasty.
These facts can be seen from the fact that the Liao Kingdom deployed troops on the border and attempted to move south several times.
The Liao emperor Yelu Hongji was very good at seizing opportunities, but Han Ming was no exception.
As a person who traveled through time with the vision of later generations, Han Ming knew who the biggest enemy of the Song Dynasty was.
The Liao Dynasty and the Khitan were a behemoth that the Song Dynasty had to consider and guard against no matter what it thought or did.
From the first day Han Ming entered officialdom, he had been preparing to fight against his old enemy in the north.
I just didn’t expect that this opportunity would come so quickly. Maybe this is fate!
Han Ming hugged Yu Yanran and kept telling her some funny stories to relieve her depressed mood.
The sunset outside the window became increasingly rosy, and finally, as if unable to bear the sight of love, it covered its face impatiently and fell into the distant sky.
. . . . . .
After all the plans and issues were finalized, the wedding date of Gu Tingye and Sheng Minglan was officially confirmed in early September of the second year of Zhiping, and was expected to be held in mid-September.
When the news came out, Tokyo Prefecture was cheering. After all, when there is a happy event, there will be a wedding banquet, wedding candy, wedding money, and there will be excitement to watch, which is fun for the people.
For Gu Tingye and Sheng Minglan, it also foreshadows the launch of the plan to march north to defend against the enemy.
This was the first time Sheng Minglan, a girl with a gentle appearance but a throbbing heart, participated in such a large-scale operation. She was very excited and even couldn't wait.
However, this impatience made outsiders mistakenly think that the child was in a hurry to get married, which inevitably caused her to be laughed at by her family.
Only Gu Tingye could understand what the Sixth Young Lady was thinking, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly with his hands covering his head.
"What do you call this? I used to feel sorry for Sixth Miss, but now I suddenly feel like I don't understand her as well as Jingyuan!"
Gu Tingye pretended to be angry and drank, while Sheng Changbai opposite him shook his head and chuckled.
"I think you're jealous because you think Sixth Sister doesn't have you in her heart and only has an action plan, right?!"
Sheng Changbai's honest words were a hundredfold blow, and they pierced my heart.
Gu Tingye grumbled angrily for a long time without saying anything, and finally said with a sad face: "Why doesn't she understand people's hearts?!"
Gu Tingye himself didn't know when he became a jealous person. Every move of Sheng Minglan touched his heart.
Whenever she talked about people like Qi Heng and He Hongwen, she felt a little uncomfortable and unbearable.
Whenever Sheng Minglan puts other things above him, Gu Tingye feels uncomfortable and can't suppress the jealousy in his heart.
"Sixth sister doesn't not understand, but she doesn't dare to understand. Zhong Huai, if you really care about her, please try to be considerate of her."
Sheng Changbai was at a loss for words and patted the other person's shoulder, asking him to adjust himself.
"I just feel...I feel...just think about it, my wedding to her! I also have to go north to lead troops to fight the enemy and be away from home for several months."
"She couldn't... couldn't... say goodbye to me properly... or say something caring or something."
"She was just thinking about participating in such a huge project, it was very exciting and interesting, and I..."
Gu Tingye became more and more angry as he spoke, and his words were a little halting, which made Sheng Changbai hold his forehead and smile bitterly.
"I understand you, I understand you okay!"
Sheng Changbai hurriedly calmed Gu Tingye's temper. Looking at him who was like a child, he thought that his sixth sister would suffer a lot in the future!
