I fought back after reselling my engagement

Chapter 103 Phoenix Envoy Token

While Zhen Su was looking at him in confusion, Chunyue reported, "Princess, the two maids who are skilled in martial arts sent by Princess Changle are waiting outside."

"Call him in."

Zhen Su put the box away.

Two girls came in: one was tall, with a face as cold as ice, bright eyes and white teeth, like an ice man who had no emotions, her facial features were delicate but not gentle enough.

Zhen Su's mind flashed through: killer, dead man. The girl in front of him who exuded coldness was just such a person. She made no sound when she walked and her lower body was very stable.

The other girl was slightly plump and had a natural smile, which could make people feel good about her at first sight.

"Spring breeze (spring rain) greets the princess!"

The one with the oval face is called Chunfeng, and the chubby girl is called Chunyu. Apparently they were not called these names before. On the indenture, one was called Xin Qimei and the other was called Chun Shiyi Niang.

Zhen Su raised his hand and Chunyue left the flower hall.

She asked in a low voice, "Who is Xin Qimei?"

Chunfeng replied: "It's my subordinate!"

The Ice Beauty Chunfeng, her real name is Xin Qimei.

Zhen Su asked, "What's going on with the Imperial Palace Supervisory Department?"

The spring rain is silent.

Chun Feng said slowly: "The Imperial Palace Supervisory Office is the eyes of the Great Qi Emperor. It is responsible for monitoring the officials of all ranks, the injustices and the people's sentiments in all parts of the world.

The Supervisory Office is directly under the king and is under the direct control of the king. There are twelve envoys in the Supervisory Office: Dragon Envoy, Phoenix Envoy, Tiger Envoy, Wolf Envoy, Eagle Envoy, etc. Each of the twelve envoys has his own supervisory guard.

The two of us were assigned by the Emperor to assist you, Your Excellency, as guards.

My subordinates are responsible for contacting the Supervisory Department and the Local Public Administration Department; Chunyu is responsible for contacting the Beggars' Sect."

Zhen Su took out the golden phoenix plate from the box.

"Phoenix Envoy!" the two girls exclaimed in unison.

The Dragon Messenger and the Phoenix Messenger are the most transcendent among the Twelve Messengers.

The Imperial Palace Supervisory Office was built by Emperor Gaozu. In fact, after the tenth year of Emperor Gaozu's Zhenguan period, Emperor Gaozu's half brothers grew up one by one, and Emperor Gaozu of the Great Qi Dynasty did not ascend the throne as a crown prince, but killed his two brothers from the same mother to seize the throne, and even launched the Wumen Rebellion. Originally, it was thought that his eldest brother wanted to kill him, but he turned the tables and killed his eldest brother and younger brother, and finally successfully ascended the throne as emperor.

In order to become the successful one in the bloody battle for the throne and prevent his younger brothers from doing harm to him, he established the Supervisory Office, which was supposed to supervise all officials in the world. He was also secretly keeping an eye on his younger royal brothers. Once there was any sign of trouble, he would be invincible.

Zhen Su asked, "Are the identity tokens of the twelve envoys of the Supervisory Department all like this?"

Chunfeng and Chunyu were overjoyed. No wonder a bloody selection was carried out in the Fengwei Camp this time, which required not only outstanding martial arts but also quick reactions. It turned out that the Feng Envoy had appeared.

The spring rain remains silent.

Chun Feng said: "Among the twelve envoys, only the Dragon Envoy and Phoenix Envoy have the words 'As if I were here in person' engraved on their tokens. The other supervisory envoys do not have these words on their tokens."

She was silent for a moment. There has always been a legend that the Dragon Envoy and the Phoenix Envoy must be members of the royal family, and must be people who are favored by the emperor and are willing to support him.

The Fengwei Camp had always known about the existence of the Phoenix Envoy, but this was the first time they had heard of the Phoenix Envoy appearing since the establishment of the Supervisory Office in Da Qi. The Dragon Envoy had been replaced several times, but the Tiger Envoy, Eagle Envoy, and Wolf Envoy were replaced very quickly. The Twelve Envoys were permanent, but the messengers kept changing.

The phoenix is ​​used to appear, and the dragon is used to hide.

The dragon makes things appear, and the phoenix makes things hide.

The two were ecstatic when they saw the token because the superior they assisted, their master, was the highest-ranking of the Twelve Envoys of the Supervisory Office. In other words, when Princess Jiarou became the Phoenix Envoy, there would no longer be any Dragon Envoys.

The Dragon Messenger and the Phoenix Messenger have the most honorable status among the Twelve Messengers.

The first Phoenix Envoy since the founding of the Great Qi Dynasty was the daughter of a minister, a weak girl who had just reached the age of marriage, and a girl who knew no martial arts.

Why did Emperor Dezhi award the Phoenix Envoy Token to Princess Jiarou?

Could it be that Princess Jiarou's previous actions in the capital were part of the emperor's assessment?

However, the Dragon Envoy and the Phoenix Envoy must be of royal bloodline. Even if the first Phoenix Envoy of Da Qi was not of royal bloodline, she was at least a powerful figure like the Crown Prince's Consort or the Prince's Consort.

Earlier, there were rumors in the Dragon Guard Camp and the Phoenix Guard Camp that among this generation, the person most likely to obtain the Dragon Envoy Token and the Phoenix Envoy Token was the Second Prince or the Fourth Prince, while the Phoenix Envoy Token was likely to fall into the hands of the Ninth Princess or Princess Changle. A princess of a different surname accidentally got the Phoenix Envoy Token.

why?

Lady Feng is a princess of a different surname.

The two girls, having been ecstatic for a while, were now puzzled by the emperor's actions.

Chun Feng clasped his fists and said, "My lord, I heard that the Dragon and Phoenix Plate is not only a symbol of status, but also a rare treasure. It was made by a great master of the Mo School in the previous dynasty. The Phoenix Plate is both a token and an official seal!"

Official seal?

But this is clearly a palm-sized golden phoenix plate.

Zhen Su narrowed his eyes slightly and nodded, "Chun Yue, take Chun Feng and Chun Yu to settle down in Ting Yu Xuan."

She got the Phoenix Card, and from what the two female guards said, it was also a talisman and an official seal.

If she had not recovered her modern memory, she would not have dared to accept such a hot item.

After a busy day, Zhen Su was very tired. When he was about to go to bed at night, Chunjiang handed him an envelope.

It looks stylish, but it's too rigid, like the word "Jia Rou" written in capital letters by a twelve-year-old child.

Chun Jiang whispered, "The money that Princess Changle's guards brought back and that Princess Changle paid to the court will be handed over to the emperor personally by General Lu."

It was the first time she saw Lu Yan's handwriting. If Su Mo's handwriting was too rigid and unyielding, Lu Yan's handwriting was like a sword with the vertical stroke and a knife with the horizontal stroke, carrying a fierce fighting spirit and murderous aura. But it could also be seen that this handwriting was the result of hard practice, and one could see the style of military general's calligraphy.

Chun Jiang said: "The princess needs to rest now."

Zhen Su replied, "I'll read for a while."

"My Lady, I will be on guard tonight. Call me if you need anything."

Chunjiang bowed and saluted.

Zhen Su opened the wax seal and found only a thin piece of paper inside. On it was written "The Jiangnan Su Family should collect money."

It was not a letter, but just this one sentence, definitely not a correspondence. This sentence was written twice as large as the text in an ordinary letter.

He only wrote this sentence.

Is the Jiangnan Su family being targeted by the imperial court?

Zhen Su rolled up the letter, extinguished the candle, and watched the flames devour the letter.

Princess Changle's guards changed into night clothes and sneaked into Su Jingzhai's study.

Su Jingzhai was practicing calligraphy when his servant came in and said, "Sir, the Third Master wants to see you."

Su Shao walked into the study, clasped his fists and bowed, "Father, it's late, go to bed early!"

When he raised his eyes, he saw the soup bowl on the table, "Su Su asked me to make health-preserving soup again?"

"I made some cough ointment the day before yesterday and asked my servant to watch me while I ate it. Today at the second watch, he brought me some health-preserving soup." Su Jingzhai was a little emotional.

Su Shao said: "This kind of consideration is similar to that of a mother."

"None of you five siblings has a personality like her. Only among the grandchildren, Wen Jiang is a little bit like her." This is why he favors her so much. Jigui is an adult, she knows how to care for the elders, and also knows how to take care of and be filial to her grandparents. "It's a pity that Wan'er didn't get to see her grow up."
