Chapter 31: First Encounter

A carriage stopped behind the crowd, and when the curtain was lifted, a young man got out of the car unhurriedly, and the crowd of onlookers spontaneously gave way to the way, and the man walked out of the crowd calmly.

The deputy envoy of the Liao State had not stopped the laughter in the ranks of his envoys before, and he was a little blushing at this time.

The pavilion companion secretly scolded these troublemakers in his heart, this errand was the easiest to do, and if he did well, he would naturally get a reward at both ends. This is good, if you make such a thing, you will have to be scolded by your boss when you go back.

"The matter of 'New Year's coins', I think you know the beginning and end of the matter better than us. In the first year of Jingde, our dynasty and the Liao country fought in Danzhou City, when the first emperor in order to avoid the defeat of the Song and Liao countries, and your country was a brotherly country, and the annual coins were used to exempt the people from the suffering of war. This is the benevolent heart of the first emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, not that my Great Song Dynasty was defeated by the Liao State, let alone afraid of the Liao State. The young man seemed to know the truth, and stood in the crowd and talked eloquently.

The surrounding people understood the truth of the battle, and they all sighed loudly, and couldn't help but straighten their chests.

The deputy envoy of the Liao State wanted to open his mouth several times, but he couldn't make a sound. In the team of the Liao envoys, the two brothers who had chatted in Khitan before were silent, carefully looking at this ordinary-looking young man.

"Some of the noble envoys say that I am a woman and a child of the Great Song Dynasty who governs the country, but this is not true. Not to mention whether the emperor of my dynasty is now a widow, just say that during the unification of the Liao State, the emperor of your country was young, if it was not for the Empress Dowager Xiao with her own strength, how could she save the Liao country from danger? Empress Dowager Xiao has outstanding political achievements and is admired by the world, why doesn't your envoy say that Liao is a country of women and children? The Liao envoys who said something were red-faced, and no one could refute them.

And the onlookers all raised their eyebrows and applauded!

The envoy argued, "This brother is right, but we don't mean to laugh at your country, so don't misinterpret it." ”

The young man ignored the envoy and continued, "My Great Song Dynasty man may not be as strong as the man of your country, but the blood of the Great Song Dynasty people is not necessarily less than that of any country. The territory of my Great Song Dynasty cannot be violated, the dignity of my Great Song Dynasty cannot be dishonored, and I am a weak scholar like me, but whenever needed, we will swear to defend every inch of land and every inch of dignity of the Great Song Dynasty. The words were sonorous and powerful, and the onlookers were all enthusiastic, and they all looked at the Liao envoys with proud eyes.

As the timid pavilion envoy was also said, he felt that Fang Cai's little selfishness was really ashamed of the Great Song Dynasty.

Good words such as this deputy envoy of the Liao State were stunned for a while, and he couldn't speak.

At this time, a person came out of the Liao envoy team, it was the eldest brother of the two brothers, he hugged his fists at the surrounding crowd, and said loudly, "My Da Liao people are all straightforward and straightforward, and they don't really mean to offend the dignity of the Great Song Dynasty, so please understand." "This Liao man actually speaks fluent Chinese, but he doesn't know who it is.

The young man looked at this person carefully, but saw that this Liao man was tall, with his eyebrows and sideburns, and his eyes were slender and bright, he was more delicate and handsome than ordinary Khitans, and he looked resolute and more manly than the Great Song people. This person was wearing a blue round-necked robe, which looked like an ordinary robe, but it was actually embroidered all over the body, which was quite delicate. When this young man saw this person's face, his eyes couldn't help but squint slightly, and his heart moved.

The Liao people continued to clench their fists and said, "Song and Liao are brothers, and the friendship between the two countries must not be ruined because of trivial matters. It was a pure misunderstanding just now, as the so-called don't fight and don't know each other, I'm here to accompany you, and resolve this misunderstanding, right? ”

This Liao man is very powerful, and the embarrassing dilemma faced by the Liao envoy just now was easily resolved in a few words, and the young man did not mean to lose face of the Liao people, so he stopped talking from then on.

Seeing this, the envoy of the embassy hurriedly stood up and rounded, "Everyone, the envoy of the Liao State has come from afar, please disperse and let them enter the embassy post station to rest earlier, right?" ”

The crowd of onlookers was no longer lively and beautiful, and they all dispersed boringly.

"What is this brother's name?" The Liao man stopped the young man who was about to turn around and leave.

"In the lower Song Dynasty, it doesn't matter what kind of name it is." The young man looked at the Liao man lightly.

"Brother is so courageous, eloquent, and generous! Admire under it! If you have the fate to see you again, you should ask your brother to talk about it. When the Liao man saw that this young man did not want to tell his name, he did not force it.

"Say goodbye!" The young man nodded, turned and returned to the carriage, and the man waiting on the wheel of the carriage immediately got up and drove away.

After the Liao man saw the young man get into the car and go away, he glanced around, and only then did he realize that there were a pair of eyes in the corner that seemed to be staring at them, but now he looked at them but found nothing, so he also turned around and walked into the Duting Station.

"Alas! Accidentally came out again! The young man who was just talking eloquently in the car would say to himself, "I don't know how many people have to target this, it's really a headache!" ”。

Then he lifted the curtain and said to the white-skinned young man who was driving, "Zhao Yan, it seems that we have to go around first, and then visit Madam Yu later." ”

Isn't this ordinary-looking young man Zhao Xian? She didn't want to come out just now, but after a long time, the people of the Great Song Dynasty have lost their courage and fighting spirit, and she doesn't want to see even the most basic dignity in the Great Song Dynasty.

"Ugh." She couldn't help but sigh again.

"Master, it seems that someone has followed us, and they have been going around several times, but they still haven't been able to shake off this tail." Outside the car, Zhao Yan stopped the car to report.

"Oh? Looks like a veteran! Let's go to the Spring Breeze Building for dinner. Zhao Xian smiled.

Chunfeng Tower is located near the Jinliang Bridge in the west of the outer city, and although it is medium in size, it is quite distinctive. This spring breeze building was named after a poet's sentence "Yiren laughs at the spring breeze noodles" and is famous in Bianliang. But it is not most famous for the exquisite food and thoughtful service, but for the Maiko who lives in the building.

Chunfeng Lou is close to the Western Xia Embassy Duting Xiyi and the Goryeo Embassy Tongwen Hall, and most of the activities nearby are people from various countries and states, so Chunfeng Lou has many different colors of different colors of foreign dancers stationed here, so it also attracts many guests who come to see the foreign dancers.

At this time, because it was past lunch, the guests all left sporadically. Zhao Xian didn't take much effort to find a small pavilion facing the patio.

As soon as he entered the pavilion, a warm breeze blew on his face, and the cold brought by the outside was swept away, "It's really worthy of the Spring Breeze Building, it's really a spring breeze," Zhao Xian took a comfortable breath and beckoned Zhao Yan to sit down and eat together.

The dishes were served in a short time, and the restaurant Xiaoer began to recommend the wine they sold, "Guest officer, do you want to try our building's famous wine 'Drunken Spring Breeze'"?

"It's a nice name, so let's try it in a pot." Zhao Xian said leisurely.

After a while, there was a knock at the door of the little pavilion, and in came a woman of graceful figure, barefoot, with two golden bells tied to her feet, which jingled as she walked. Looking at his face, he only saw a pair of green eyes like emerald, and the rest of his face was covered by a light veil, looming, and a deep outline could be vaguely seen.

The woman held a pot of "Drunken Spring Breeze" and a few cups, and walked towards Zhao Xian with a willow waist.

Because there are a lot of dancers in the "Spring Breeze Building", most of them make friends with the little two in the building in order to introduce guests, so they often help the little two to drink, and then solicit business, so it is not strange to see this matter here.

"Childe, the slave family is willing to dance, are you willing to watch it?" The woman knelt in front of Zhao Xian and poured the wine, speaking a dialect that was not fluent but not stiff, which sounded a little weird.

Zhao Xian looked at the slightly red "drunken spring breeze", and sniffed closely, this wine made from flowers and fruits was bright in color and luster, and the degree was not high, she picked up the cup and took a sip.

"What kind of dance does the young lady do?" Zhao Xian looked at the woman for a long time,

The woman's eyes flashed, and she smiled, "Naturally, it's our own Hu Xuan Dance." ”

"Miss is Hu?" Zhao Xian smiled, but the corner of her eye glanced at Zhao Yan, and Zhao Yan immediately stood up and guarded the door.

When the Hu girl saw Zhao Yan's action, she didn't panic, and said with a smile, "Childe has good eyesight!" Do you want to see Hu Wu? ”

"Miss, please dance, I'm willing to enjoy it." Zhao Xian lazily leaned on the cushion behind her, straightened her legs, and nodded.

When the woman heard this, she didn't start dancing, her eyes rolled around, and the green eyes suddenly added a touch of aura to the covered face.

Then she approached Zhao Xian and said in a low voice, "Childe has an enemy?" ”

Zhao Xian pretended to be surprised, "What did Miss say about this?" ”
