Bring your aunt to eat big meat, the scumbag father's family is furious

Chapter 687: Foreign Guests Arrive, the Critical Moment Arrives

Mu Xinghe also knew that the most important thing at the moment was not to alert the enemy.

The other party is waiting to see him make a fool of himself, so he will not be able to find fault with him, and he will never let those people use him to drag the entire Qiao family into trouble.

"So, about the frightened horse—"

Mu Xinghe felt that Li Zanran had a use for him. He hadn't gotten what he wanted yet, so why would he be so anxious to take his name?

Qiao Lian'er thought to herself that Mu Xinghe was indeed a smart man. He could think of many things without her having to point them out.

"It's someone else."

Seeing that he still seemed a little persistent, she said, "You went to the Honglu Temple to take over the shift this time, which is equivalent to taking advantage of others. They will not tolerate you either."

"It's the Zhao and Bai families." Mu Xinghe sneered, "They want to use this opportunity to make enemies for the Qiao family."

Qiao Jianer smiled. Mu Xinghe was becoming more and more aware of these interests. When he climbed to a high position in the future, he would definitely be able to play a big role.

After leaving the Qiao family, Mu Xinghe hurried to Honghu Temple. Lord Gu was still there. He found out that in previous years, Xiufeng Kingdom was always placed in front.

This booklet has been re-bound and re-typeset.

"Why do you care about this issue?" asked Lord Gu. He knew that Mu Xinghe was meticulous, but there was no need to pay attention to trivial matters.

This matter can be said to be insignificant.

"Because Xiufeng is a big country, I must pay more attention to it and arrange the tasks for Xiufeng in advance."

Lord Gu said with a touch of admiration, "You have always known the importance and propriety of things. Li Zanran was right in recommending you."

Mu Xinghe just bowed and said nothing more.

Since Li Zanran put Xiufeng Kingdom at the end, he pretended not to know and only supervised the craftsmen to work on Xiufeng Kingdom in the last two days.

"To be on the safe side, Li Zanran will probably go and inspect it," Qiao Jian'er said. "We need to build a batch of black fire tools at the same time so we can fool him."

Although the mission is now at its final stage, even if Li Zanran finds out that he has not followed the instructions in the booklet and it is too late to save the situation, there is no guarantee that he will not do anything else.

Mu Xinghe did as he was told, and sure enough, on the last day of the assignment, Li Zanran stepped into the embroidery workshop.

The embroiderers worked overnight to sew the flags of various countries. As a form of welcoming etiquette, they were to be hung on the long flower carpet path that foreign guests would pass through when entering the palace, reflecting the great country's inclusiveness.

The floral carpet is also embroidered with totems and cultural elements from different countries.

Xiufeng Kingdom is a country that obviously believes in fire. Even its flag has a pattern of black fire.

Li Zanran pretended to pick up a flag to check, and finally picked up the flag of Xiufeng Kingdom.

The black flame totem, like the darkest night, exudes a strong sense of weirdness, as if it is about to drag the Qiao family into hell.

Li Zanran was very satisfied. It seemed that neither the Qiao family nor Mu Xinghe were prepared for his arrangement.

Foreign guests from several countries arrived yesterday, and most of them have arrived today. The rest will arrive one after another tomorrow morning, and the welcoming ceremony will be held at noon.

And his mission will be completed successfully. At that time, he will get a large amount of wealth and the position of Minister of the Ministry of Rites.

After Li Zanran left, a person came out from the inner room of the embroidery workshop.

Mu Xinghe looked at the void outside, his eyes tinged with gloom.

From this incident, he knew that it was not enough to rely solely on conscience and justice in officialdom. One had to be more cunning than these villains. When one meets a Buddha, he becomes a Buddha; when one meets a ghost, he becomes a ghost.

"Switch them all over."

At noon the next day, foreign guests arrived and the ceremony was grand and solemn.

Officials of the fourth rank and above, including officials of the sixth rank and above who were in charge of this ceremony, sat on both sides.

As a princess, Qiao Jian'er was supposed to sit at the same table with the princesses and princes of the prince's family, but she had the order of Princess Pingyang in her hand and was seated ahead of them.

She was wearing a palace dress, which made her temperament more steady and her eyes were clear and solemn.

The princesses and princes were a little surprised and couldn't help but secretly look at the man a few more times.

In their eyes, Qiao Jian'er was just a princess of a different surname, while they were royal blood relatives. Her position was actually more important than theirs, almost on the same level as the princess.

Some are dissatisfied, some are envious, and some are in awe.

Princess Feiluan is currently training 40,000 cavalrymen and has elite soldiers at her command. Who knows how many achievements she will make in the future. She should not be provoked lightly.

Li Zanran was in a good mood. Although his official position was not very high and he stood at the end of all the officials, a smile could not help but appear on his face.

When the auspicious time arrived, Eunuch Qi said loudly, "Foreign guests are entering the court, and music should be played."

Suddenly, drums, music and trumpets sounded, firecrackers rang out, and balls of fireworks exploded in the sky. Although it was daytime, it still created the grand scene of a prosperous dynasty.

The foreign guests entered the palace in a procession, and the princes and officials performed a friendly welcome ceremony according to the rehearsed etiquette. The ceremony was uniform, spectacular, and pleasing to the eye.

As these foreign guests came in, they observed the patterns on the carpets and flags. These were the symbols, beliefs and culture of their country. The textile and embroidery skills of Daze Country were indeed advanced, and these patterns were even more beautiful and delicate than those made in their own country.

The foreign guests showed satisfaction on their faces and couldn't help but slow down their pace and become interested in sightseeing.

Behind all the officials, one person held his breath. The guests from Xiufeng Country were about to see their country's totem. Facing a ball of black flame, they would surely be so angry that they would explode on the spot and lose face.

The people of this country appear humble on the outside, but they are very hot-tempered when their principles are violated. I can’t imagine them pointing at the emperor on the throne and cursing at him.

Mu Xinghe was also standing at the end of the team. He glanced at Li Zanran out of the corner of his eye.

Li Zanran clenched his fists, put them under his sleeves, and put them together. He stretched his neck and puffed out his chest, as if expecting something to happen.

"Lord Li, we can't see anything here." Mu Xinghe smiled.

Although they were called hundreds of officials, there were actually several hundred people above the fourth rank, standing in a large crowd, blocking the front.

They were standing at the back and could only catch a glimpse of a corner of clothing, not even knowing which team was passing by.

"Hey, for those of us who are of the fifth and sixth ranks, it's already a special favor to be able to stand here. We just want to have some fun." Li Zanran said.

The number of envoys from Xiufeng Kingdom is twice that of other countries. Even their own people get their totems wrong. Many people are beheaded every year because of this, so they pay special attention.

They looked up at the flags waving above them, and then at the flower carpet passing by their feet.

Although it is late autumn, the weather is particularly good today. The sunlight shines directly from above and falls on these totems, presenting a colorful beauty. It looks different from different angles.
