Now that it was an official occasion for the two countries to establish diplomatic relations, Qin Mubai did not have much interest in prying into the Queen’s appearance. At this moment, he held the envoy, Jie Cheng, with Zhu Bancheng and Xiao Xuanwu presenting their credentials and marshals. The other two auxiliary ministers of the Kang Kingdom received the credentials and the name stickers respectively and returned the greetings.

The Queen of Kang Kingdom has always been sitting upright on the throne. She only said at the beginning of the ceremony, “Young Marshal Qin came to save our small kingdom with righteousness and personal leadership of the Heavenly Dynasty. Our kingdom feels deeply.” There is no other words left. The ministers have been presiding over this diplomatic ceremony.

However, just these words caused Qin Mubai’s heart to tremble … He didn’t expect the Queen of Kang to speak such fluent Chinese, and this voice was so familiar!

Even though it was coming from a veil, every note she spoke seemed to have a magic power that pierced through the heart and touched the strings in Qin Mubai’s heart that she hadn’t touched for a long time.

Inadvertently, Yao’er’s image appeared in Qin Mubai’s mind. The pitiful woman who had once given him the most selfless tenderness and the deepest sorrow!

Qin Mubai couldn’t help but raise her head and look at the Queen on the throne.

The Queen looked at Qin Mubai as if her heart was connected.

The eyes of the two met, and their hearts trembled at the same time!

Although the Queen only revealed a pair of eyes, her gaze could no longer conceal it from Qin Mubai. Her heart was also trembling with anxiety.

On such an occasion, the two of them were absent-minded at the same time.

Qin Mubai couldn’t help but open his eyes wide, revealing a surprised expression. He couldn’t help but mutter, “Yao’er?!”

That’s right, he had seen this kind of gaze before. Even though he had only seen it once, it was still a moment, and it was destined to be unforgettable for his entire life-that was, when Yao’er was dying, her eyes, which had been blind for many years, suddenly shone again!

That gaze was like an awl that had carved the name of Yao’er into Qin Mubai’s heart. In this life, it would never be erased!

Now, in Kang Juguo, she was actually able to taste Yao’er’s gaze from the Queen’s gaze!

“Major Marshal … Major Marshal!” Xiao Xuanwu whispered, “Minister Kang, please affix a handsome seal on their credentials …”

“Oh” Qin Mubai suddenly regained her senses and smiled awkwardly. She took out a handsome seal and put it on.

Forget the ceremony, Minister Kang invited Xiao Xuanwu and the other Tang generals to host a banquet at Qilin Terrace. However, she told Qin Mubai that Her Majesty the Queen would personally host a banquet in the harem to entertain the Marshal of the Heavenly Dynasty and invite Qin Mubai to the harem for a banquet.

“Exactly!” Qin Mubai readily agreed.

The Queen got up from her throne and nodded at Qin Mubai. She smiled and floated away.

Qin Mubai’s heart trembled again. Even he himself was a little shocked. The way she smiled at me just now, as well as her back as she walked, seemed so familiar. Could it be that we really have seen each other before? Strange! I haven’t even seen this woman’s appearance yet. Why are you so restless today? Could it be that this woman has some special ability that can attract people’s souls?

At this moment, Su Lianqing leaned over and chuckled, “How is it, Young Marshal Qin, are you out of control?”

“Bullshit!” Qin Mubai glared at her.

“Do you know that?” Su Lianqing continued to sneer and said, “When we get to the harem banquet, don’t use your bearish drinking habits!”-I’m telling you, even though Kang is a small country, their faith in religion is very pious! The Queen is the widow of the former king, she must keep the festival, don’t … ”

“Shut up! You talk too much. Who do you think I am?” Qin Mubai shouted angrily.

“Hehe!” Su Lianqing smiled even more strangely. “Alright, I won’t waste my breath. I will only convey the words left behind by Wu Dongjia, that is, don’t be greedy for delay, quickly come to the Sam River!”

“You still need to warn me?” Qin Mubai sneered, “I’ll just use the state banquet to complete the etiquette of diplomatic relations later. I’ll immediately send troops north to the Sam River! Greed? Greed for what! I’m sure you’re making this up. How could she say such a thing?”

“Haha, you’ll know later if it was Wu Meiniang who said it-hurry up and follow me. Her Majesty the Queen is waiting for you in the harem!” Su Lianqing proudly led the way.

Qin Mubai shook her head and smiled. She thought to herself, what kind of amazing thing is this Queen? Could it be that she can make me forget about Wu Meiniang and the military affairs? What nonsense! !

Along the way, the exotic buildings and luxurious decorations along the way made Qin Mubai, who had seen many worlds, feel a little disappointed.

It seemed that the rumors outside were correct. The Kang Kingdom’s palace was indeed a “golden palace”. Taking out an agate from the wall here was priceless enough to make a person rich overnight.

The Queen stood in the garden of a statue of a well in the harem, with only two maidservants beside her. From the looks of it, it didn’t seem like he was preparing to entertain a foreign guest, but rather, it was more like he was waiting for his lover.

Su Lianqing led Qin Mubai to the garden and laughed a few times before slipping away. Seeing Qin Mubai enter, the Queen also rejected the two female maidservants beside her.

White jade well pond, clear water gurgling; Rockery statue, lush green shade. The birds beside him were singing and flowers were fragrant.

Qin Mubai walked in front of the Queen. The two of them stared into each other’s eyes and forgot to greet each other.

The more Qin Mubai looked at it, the more he felt that the woman in front of him was too familiar!

“Your Majesty, please forgive me for taking the liberty … I would like to ask, have we met somewhere before?” Qin Mubai couldn’t help but ask.

The Queen couldn’t help but cover her veil with her hand and Wan Er smiled, “Never.”

“That’s strange” Qin Mubai frowned and stared at the Queen’s veil.

The veil was hazy. Although she couldn’t see her appearance clearly, she could vaguely see a trace of her facial features.

“Why is Young Marshal Qin staring at me like this?” The Queen’s face turned red and her heart beat.

“Sorry, I was rude.” Only then did Qin Mubai regain his senses and cupped his hands. “I really feel that … His Majesty looks very familiar.”

“That’s true” The Queen hesitated for a moment and said, “No wonder.”

“Isn’t this strange?” Qin Mubai was a little surprised. “This is the first time in my life that I have come to Kang Country. Logically speaking, it is impossible for me to meet Her Majesty the Queen. But why?”

“You’ll know later.” The Queen smiled mysteriously and said to Qin Mubai, “Young Marshal Qin, the banquet is ready. When are you going to attend the banquet?”

“Anytime. It’s up to the Queen.”

“Then please!”

The two of them walked towards a palace gate one after the other.

Qin Mubai followed behind her two steps behind and looked at her back. This simple yet luxurious golden crescent robe made the Queen’s back look somewhat hazy. Qin Mubai looked left and right and clearly felt that he had seen this woman somewhere before.

He also had another feeling. This should be a lofty Queen, and she did not possess a domineering aura that belonged to a king. On the contrary, she was very amiable, just like a little sister from the Lin family. Especially the way she looked at Qin Mubai. Although there was a hint of shyness that was unique to strangers and women, it was mostly warmth and longing, as if she was staring at relatives or close friends who had been separated for a long time.

“Too similar!” Qin Mubai couldn’t help but say.

“Like what?” The Queen stopped and asked.

“Her Majesty the Queen is very much like an old friend of mine.” Qin Mubai said with a smile.

The Queen smiled but did not say anything. She leaned on the Half Moon Scepter and walked straight into the dining hall.

There was a pearl curtain seat in the north of the hall by the window. The Queen walked behind the pearl curtain and sat down. She invited Qin Mubai to sit in the guest seat. After sitting down for a while, a row of graceful palace concubines entered and exited the hall, presenting more than thirty golden plates and cauldrons, as well as food.

Qin Mubai hadn’t noticed it at first, but later, he realized that these foods were all his favorite. There were not only famous dishes in the palace of the Great Tang, but also snacks in Chang’an, and even the soup of lotus root soup with the flavor of the south of the Yangtze River.

“The Queen really has her intentions.” Qin Mubai smiled gratefully. “It’s very difficult to find these ingredients in the Western Regions.”

“Earlier, I heard that Major Marshal might come to Kang Country, so I sent many palace chefs to study and prepare delicious food for Young Marshal Qin. Of course, only Wu Meiniang knew that you liked the soup of lotus root soup in the south of the Yangtze River.” The Queen said softly, “It must be very hard for Young Marshal Qin to march outside often. It’s often simple food and tea. Since you’ve come to the palace, you can treat this place as your own. You might as well stay here for a few more days.”

‘”Well” Qin Mubai smiled and changed the subject to pick up the wine glass. “I propose a toast to Her Majesty the Queen!”

“Major Marshal, please.” Behind the bead curtains, the Queen slowly removed the white veil on her face.

Qin Mubai tried his best to open his eyes wide, but he still couldn’t see the person behind the curtain clearly. He couldn’t help but secretly say regret in his heart.

The two of them drank each other’s wine. Qin Mubai had originally drank a mouthful of it, but he didn’t expect the wine to be extremely strong. It was actually “Qin Xianjiu”!

Qin Mubai accidentally choked and laughed self-deprecatingly, “I forgot that Mama Mei’s caravan has come to Kang Country, so there must be Qin Xianjiu with them!”

“Major Marshal and Mama Mei … what an enviable couple!” A faint sigh came from behind the bead curtain.

Qin Mubai smiled and said, “What a coincidence. Mother Mei actually changed her body when she came to Kang Country and became the first assistant minister in front of Her Majesty the Queen. If it weren’t for the fact before me, I wouldn’t believe it.”

‘”To tell you the truth, I have no intention of sitting on this throne myself, and I have always known myself and have no ability to govern and subdue others. Mother Mei and I were the same at first sight. At first, I wanted to give this throne to Mother Mei, but she insisted on refusing. That’s why I have always held the throne, and have the right to do so.” The Queen said, “If it was better, I would be able to give up the throne to Mother Mei if Master Major Marshal was in charge to help Kang defend against foreign enemies! Please persuade Major Marshal to accept my Buddhist throne after seeing Mother Mei!”

Qin Mubai couldn’t help but be a little shocked and hurriedly said, “Then aren’t we going to occupy the nest of Hatoyama and seize the master? This matter absolutely must not be allowed to happen!”

“Haha, why did Major Marshal and Mama Mei reject the same words?” The Queen smiled. “Well, Major Marshal is new here. Let’s not talk about this so as not to ruin Major Marshal’s liquor.”

“I respect Your Majesty again!”

“Please drink more, Major Marshal. I can’t win the wine. I can only accompany you with my strength.”

After three rounds of drinking, Qin Mubai couldn’t help but feel slightly drunk.

The Queen behind the curtains said, “I’ve heard that Tang dining feasts are accompanied by music and dances, and Major Marshal is an elegant person with the reputation of being the number one musician of the Tang Dynasty. Today, I will personally present a humiliation in front of Major Marshal and play Kong Hou, which our Kang people are good at.”

“Then I am truly flattered!” Qin Mubai naturally agreed.

The two palace maids took the harp Kong Hou and closed the door when they left. Within the gorgeous palace illuminated by the Night Pearl, only the two of them were left.

“I’ll play a song first. Please don’t hesitate to teach me.”

“I dare not, Your Majesty, please.”

The Queen played an Arab tune. The harp was originally introduced to Kangguo from Persia and is a unique musical instrument in the Arabian region. Qin Mubai felt that it was quite new, so he couldn’t help but applaud.

“Major Marshal is overpraised.” The Queen’s voice revealed a hint of joy as she said, “I’ve heard for a long time that Major Marshal is elegant. He is a generation of pipa grandmaster. I wonder if he can …”

“Sorry, Your Majesty.” Qin Mubai smiled apologetically. “I swore that I would never play again in this life.”

“Except when you’re offering her a tribute, right?” The Queen suddenly said.

Qin Mubai was stunned, then thought that Wu Meiniang might have told her, so he nodded silently.

“Then I won’t force Major Marshal anymore. Please listen to my next song, Major Marshal.”

“Alright.”

Ethereal and melodious music rang out. Just as he heard the first melody, Qin Mubai couldn’t help but be a little stunned-it was actually the song “Hope People Longevity”!

Qin Mubai had only played this song in private, and only Wu Meiniang had heard of it. Moreover, she did not forget it and began to sing on the spot.

This was originally the privacy of Wu Meiniang and Qin Mubai, but she didn’t expect that she would actually teach the song to the Queen of Kang Country. In that case, wouldn’t Wu Meiniang and the Queen be quite intimate?

Just one song, Qin Mubai was still deep in thought, and he actually forgot to applaud.

“Major Marshal, you must be joking. I can’t play well …”

“No. Your Majesty’s bullets are quite good.” Qin Mubai hurriedly said, “It’s just that when I suddenly heard this familiar tune in a foreign land, I couldn’t help but recall many things from the past. Therefore, I was absent-minded for a moment. Please forgive me, Your Majesty.”

“Why should Major Marshal be so polite?” The Queen said, “This song was originally created by Major Marshal, right? Few people know about it. I once heard Wu Meiniang harrumph that she liked it for a while, but she taught it to me. It has not yet been accepted by Major Marshal. Please forgive me!”

“Haha! Since it’s a good item, I have to share it with my friends. What else do I need to agree to?” Qin Mubai smiled.

“So you and I are already friends?”

“Of course.”

“A man that Wu Meiniang loves is indeed not bad. Young Marshal Qin is such a straightforward and honest man. He is worth meeting.” The Queen smiled happily. “I hope Major Marshal listens to the third song today … Don’t think too much about it.”

“Where did you start?” Qin Mubai smiled and said, “It’s a blessing for me to be able to enjoy the music Her Majesty the Queen personally played-Your Majesty, please enjoy it!”

“Dong–”

With a string sound, Qin Mubai’s hand, which was about to reach for the wine cup, stopped in shock.

“Lanzhou Hong?!”

Qu Le was lingering, sad and desolate; Pathetique but also a trace of heroic, like a man’s iron blood, spring best friend sent love!

It was precisely the song that Yao’er had created before her death, and later became popular in Chang’an and even the entire Great Tang Dynasty-“Lanzhou Hong”!

With a bang, the chopsticks in Qin Mubai’s hand fell onto the table.

Because, apart from Yao’er, Qin Mubai had never heard of anyone who could play the song “Lanzhou Hong” so melancholy and touching that it hurt his heart!

Perhaps the alcohol intent had gone out of control, but Qin Mubai suddenly felt an irresistible impulse!

Suddenly, he stepped forward and lifted the pearl curtain between the two of them, “Who exactly are you?!”

“Ah!” The Queen, who was playing attentively, was frightened and her face paled.

Qin Mubai’s eyes widened as he stood there in a daze-“Yao’er! It’s really you!!”

Without any explanation, Qin Mu stepped forward and hugged her tightly in her arms!

“I won’t let you leave me again! Never!!”
