Right now, Emperor Qing has started asking about Chen Qingfeng, which suggests that he has also become suspicious of Chen Qingfeng.
"Our Emperor is truly cunning beyond measure!"
Li Yunrui muttered to himself.
I would be happy to see Chen Qingfeng and Emperor Qing fighting each other.
Just then, Emperor Qing, who was stroking the jade wine cup with his fingertips, suddenly looked up at Hong Sixiang, who was standing to the side.
Catching a glint in Emperor Qing's eye, Hong Sixiang suddenly pulled an imperial edict from his robes, his shrill voice piercing the banquet:
"Chen Qingfeng is appointed as the Vice Minister of the Court of State Ceremonial."
"We will soon escort Xiao En to Northern Qi in exchange for Yan Bingyun!"
Ling accompanied Hong Sixiang as he read out the imperial edict.
The entire audience erupted in uproar!
Many people began to whisper among themselves.
"Young Master Chen is truly extraordinary! On this joyous occasion, he has received His Majesty's commendation and been appointed as an envoy to Northern Qi!"
"Young Master Chen's future is limitless."
"His Majesty's high regard for Young Master Chen is evident in his ability to lead an envoy to Northern Qi."
Zero: "Truly, the Emperor's grace is boundless!"
five"……"
Fifth, of course, all the comments from these uninformed people were praise.
I think Emperor Qing values Chen Qingfeng highly.
They actually entrusted such an important task to Chen Qingfeng.
After all, this mission to Northern Qi was no small matter, and Chen Qingfeng, as the leader, naturally represented the face of Southern Qing.
Chen Qingfeng's expression did not change much after hearing Hong Sixiang's decree.
Previously, a delegation from Northern Qi visited the capital to negotiate with Southern Qing, and an agreement was subsequently reached...
At that time, he had a vague guess.
If it weren't Fan Xian who would be sent as an envoy to Northern Qi in the future, it would most likely be myself.
As it turned out, it was exactly as he had guessed.
Others were unaware of Emperor Qing's little scheme, but Chen Qingfeng knew it all.
Emperor Qing sent him on a mission to Northern Qi precisely to further probe his strengths and weaknesses.
He even considered using the Northern Qi dynasty to eliminate himself.
"That old fox is really cunning!"
Chen Qingfeng muttered to himself, but didn't pay much attention, and then thanked the emperor and accepted the decree.
For Chen Qingfeng, there was nothing to worry about.
Putting everything else aside, with his current strength, even a grandmaster would have no choice but to flee in defeat if he attacked him.
Since Emperor Qing wants to play, then he'll play along.
Seeing that Chen Qingfeng gladly accepted the decree, Emperor Qing smiled with satisfaction and then left without lingering, taking Hong Sixiang with him.
After Emperor Qing left, Chen Pingping called Chen Qingfeng aside and said with a solemn expression:
"Feng'er!"
“You could have refused that imperial decree just now.”
"Why did you agree?"
Chen Pingping looked disgusted.
He could tell from his heart that Chen Qingfeng's trip to Northern Qi was likely fraught with danger.
Chen Qingfeng smiled and said:
"Godfather, with my strength, what is there to worry about?"
Upon hearing Chen Qingfeng's words, Chen Pingping was taken aback, forgetting that Chen Qingfeng was no longer the naive and dissolute playboy he once was.
He paused for a moment, then let out a long sigh and said:
"No matter what, Feng'er, you must remember to act carefully."
"Don't worry, godfather, I know what to do."
Chen Pingping nodded and then bid farewell and left.
After Chen Pingping left, Fan Jian leaned closer and said in a deep voice:
"Did Dean Chen tell you about the Northern Qi?"
Chen Qingfeng gave a soft "hmm":
"Yes, he told me to be careful."
Fan Jian nodded and said:
What he told you is what I also wanted to tell you.
"Be careful!"
"Remember Ruoruo and Wan'er are still waiting for you in Kyoto!"
When Fan Jian said this last sentence, his tone sounded a little off.
Upon hearing this, Chen Qingfeng immediately understood.
Fan Jian was reminding him that although he had gone on a diplomatic mission to Northern Qi, Fan Ruoruo and Lin Wan'er were still in the capital, and could easily be used to blackmail him.
"Don't worry, Father-in-law, even if I'm not in Kyoto, someone will take good care of them."
Hearing that Chen Qingfeng understood his unspoken meaning, Fan Jian smiled with satisfaction, stroked his beard, and then got up and left.
He already knew this from his previous conversation with Chen Qingfeng in his study.
It was Chen Qingfeng who kidnapped the Empress, which means that there is an extremely powerful force behind Chen Qingfeng.
With this force secretly protecting Lin Wan'er and Fan Ruoruo, they are naturally safe.
After Fan Jian left, Lin Ruofu came closer again.
"Does my father-in-law have any instructions?"
Chen Qingfeng smiled and looked at Lin Ruofu, asking.
Lin Ruofu glanced at him slightly and said in a deep voice:
"His Majesty sent you as an envoy to Northern Qi at this time, there is probably a deeper meaning behind it."
"You must be very careful on your journey."
"As for the affairs of Kyoto, I will take care of them for you, so you don't need to worry about anything."
Upon hearing what Lin Ruofu said, Chen Qingfeng bowed deeply.
"Then I'll have to trouble you, Father-in-law."
Lin Ruofu nodded indifferently, said nothing more, and then walked away.
Afterwards, the Second Prince and other guests came forward to offer their congratulations before dispersing.
"Brother-in-law!"
"congratulations!"
"His Majesty's decision to send you as an envoy to Northern Qi at this time shows that he values you highly!"
"How about... I go with you?"
At this moment, Fan Xian came over and looked at Chen Qingfeng with a smile.
He said this, but he was also worried about Chen Qingfeng.
Although he was thinking of climbing the social ladder in front of Chen Qingfeng, no matter what, Chen Qingfeng was still his older brother.
He himself realized that this mission to Northern Qi was fraught with danger!
Chen Qingfeng smiled meaningfully, then casually patted Fan Xian on the shoulder and said:
"Just take care of yourself."
To Fan Xian's surprise, the strange feeling returned immediately after Chen Qingfeng patted him on the shoulder.
He couldn't help but feel a desire to obey Chen Qingfeng.
It seemed that he couldn't muster the slightest resistance in front of Chen Qingfeng.
"What's the matter?"
"Could there really be such a thing as bloodline suppression?"
Fan Xian was stunned, filled with doubt.
After a brief pause, he didn't think much of it and left with Fan Sizhe and the others.
Chapter 87: The Wedding Night! The White Silk Scar, the Empress Dowager's Nightmare!
Before long, most of the guests had left.
"Ok?"
Chen Qingfeng was surprised to see that Princess Li Yunrui was still sitting at the table.
"Princess, everyone has left, why aren't you leaving yet?"
Li Yunrui smiled charmingly, stood up, and walked gracefully towards Chen Qingfeng, her red dress as fiery as fire.
As he approached, his fingertips lightly brushed against Chen Qingfeng's clothes, and he said with a smile:
"My good son-in-law."
"You've just gotten married, and His Majesty has already sent you to Northern Qi."
