Chunfeng Tower was quite lively on this day, because the prince of Western Xia set up a banquet here to entertain the envoys of Liao, Tubo and Qiuzi. Chunfeng Building originally had three floors, but this third floor was chartered by Xia Guo.

The third floor of Chunfeng Building is a hall with exotic decorations, and the hall is very lively at this time.

There was a twenty-five or sixteen-year-old man sitting in the main seat of the hall, still dressed in white and black, with blazing eyes, and he smiled and said to a tall and handsome blue-robed man on his right, "The younger brother has admired the name of Brother Yelu for a long time, and today he is visited by the king of Zhongshan County of the Liao Kingdom. ”

The man who was called Brother Yelu hugged his fist at this man and said politely, "Prince Yuanhao, you are too polite, Xia and Liao have always been good friends, and it is an honor to be invited by Prince Xia!" ”

When the envoys of the other two countries heard this, they all asked who this brother was Yerod.

Li Yuanhao, the prince of Western Xia, hurriedly introduced, "Everyone, this is the nephew of the current Great Liao Emperor, Yelu Zongzheng, the king of Zhongshan County in Liao, and the youngest privy deputy envoy Yelu Zongzheng in Liao. ”

Liao and the Great Song Dynasty are the two largest countries in the world, and the county kings of Liao are here today, and the envoys of the other two small countries have no reason not to step forward.

Nayelu Zongzheng smiled without humility or arrogance, "Your Excellency is polite, polite. ”

A heroic young man next to him seemed a little impatient, and Li Yuanhao said in an inquiring tone, "Brother Yelu, who is this?" ”

Yelu Zongzheng said, "He is the third brother Yelu Zongyun, who has a straightforward temperament, and is the most unaccustomed to socializing, I hope the prince will understand." ”

Li Yuanhao suddenly realized, "It turned out to be the king of Changsha County, and he is also a famous young hero of your country, so I am clumsy." ”

Nayelu Zongyun didn't answer, only nodded at Li Yuanhao, and Li Yuanhao didn't mind.

"Everyone, be quiet!" Seeing that the prince of his own family nodded to him, Lord Yeli of the Western Xia Kingdom hurriedly stood up and said, "This time, the prince of my Xia Kingdom set up a banquet to come to Chunfeng Tower in person, the purpose is to get acquainted with all the adults and form good neighbors with all countries and develop together. ”

"How to develop together? You Xia Guocai captured the Uighurs, and the next one is not our country? The Tibetan envoy said.

"The capture of the Uighurs is a last resort, my father wants to make friends with the leader of your country, as long as you do not disturb our country, my Xia kingdom will have a long-term relationship with Tibet." Li Yuanhao assured with a smile.

Yelu Zongzheng looked at Li Yuanhao quietly, and said secretly in his heart, "Li Yuanhao is brave and strategic, and he is free to collect and release, in time, if this son is the king of Western Xia, the Great Song Dynasty and the Liao State will have another strong rival." ”

Li Yuanhao saw that Qiuzi was making Li Yanqing silent, and asked instead, "What do you think, Lord Li, let's talk about it together!" ”

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, is there anything else to discuss with you this time? Let's be blunt! Guizi Zheng asked Li Yanqing sharply.

"Ha Lu Ha! Master Li is really straightforward. Yes, another reason for inviting you this time is the Uighurs. You all know that our Xia Kingdom and the Uighurs have been at odds for a long time, although this time we have no choice but to capture the Uighurs, but the Uighur Khan has not yet bowed down at night, if he makes a comeback, he will definitely ask the Great Song Emperor, and contact the other countries to use troops against our Xia State, if so, I don't know what the envoys think? Li Yuanhao smiled and said slowly.

As soon as these words came out, there was silence under the seat, and no one squeaked. After half a ring, Li Yanqing said, "We can't make the decision on such a major matter, and it still needs to be decided by the Khan of our country." The crowd agreed.

"It's okay, Yuan Hao doesn't need your lords to reply immediately, just ask you to bring back my Xia country's proposal back to China, I, Li Yuanhao, are here to implore you, the Uighur general trend has gone, if the countries come forward to help them recover, or hope to fight the autumn wind in the back, then my Xia country will not stop." Li Yuanhao said with a grim face.

"Prince Xia Guo, is this threatening me to wait?" The deputy envoy of Tubo asked with a blank face.

"No, no, if the countries are willing to make friends with my Xia Kingdom and seek the interests of the Silk Road, my Xia Kingdom is supremely welcome, and I, Yuan Hao, can assure you here that for at least ten years, my Xia Kingdom will not take the initiative to move a single soldier against the countries, and the benefits and losses will be restored to the lord of your country after your lordship." Li Yuanhao's face softened slightly, and then turned into a smile, and the change was so fast that it was jaw-dropping.

Everyone was silent, weighing the pros and cons.

Li Yuanhao turned to look at Yelu Zongzheng, who had been silent, "How does Brother Yelu decide?" ”

Yelu Zongzheng smiled faintly and said, "My Liao State and Song are brothers' states, and they have always been good friends with other countries. As for the entanglement between your country and other countries, my Liao country has never intended to participate, and the prince does not need to worry too much. ”

"There is a word from Brother Yelu, my Xia Kingdom is willing to be friends with the Liao Kingdom forever!" Li Yuanhao was quite happy to get Yelu Zongzheng's words.

When Tubo and Qiuzi heard about Liao's words, they did not want to go against Western Xia face to face, and both expressed their willingness to bring this back to their respective lords.

"Lord Yeli, now that you are invited to come to Chunfeng Tower, we have finished talking about state affairs, are you going to talk about Fengyue?" Li Yuanhao beckoned to Lord Yeli, the envoy of Western Xia.

Lord Nano slapped his hands at the door, and the waiter of the restaurant who had been waiting at the door for a long time came in with all kinds of fine wine, and then a group of musicians came in and began to play music, and for a while the sound of silk and bamboo sounded as if those scenes had not happened just now.

The hall began to push the cup and change the lamp again, and the cheers were repeated.

At this time, in a pavilion on the second floor, a slender woman stood on a chair, her head slightly sideways, and her ears were attached to one end of a small tube, and the other end of the small tube was inserted into a small hole in the roof.

The woman didn't know what she was listening to, sometimes frowning, sometimes indignant. After a long time, she jumped out of the chair, put the tube and the chair away, pulled the skirt on her body, straightened the veil on her face, and walked towards the door.

Seeing that the woman's costume seemed to be a dancer in the Spring Breeze Building, the direction of her footsteps was towards the staircase on the third floor, and when she was about to walk, the door of the pavilion on the second floor suddenly opened, and a hand stretched out from inside, dragging one of them in.

"Oops. Who is it? The dancing girl was about to shout, but when she saw the man sitting leisurely in the pavilion, she swallowed it back.

"Is that you?" The dancer looked at the man suspiciously, "What do you want to do?"

"Although assassination is the most direct and effective method, but for you, it is the most stupid method, if Li Yuanhao can be stabbed to death easily, then he has already died hundreds of times." The man said slowly.

"So what do I do?" The dancer whispered at the man.

"Yeluo was not caught by Li Yuanhao, he should come to Bianliang soon, you can wait for him with peace of mind. Stop doing things that don't make senses. The man ignored the dancing girl's anger.

"Then what about Alimu, I want to save him." The dancing girl turned out to be the Uighur princess Yalia, and she whispered with tears in her eyes.

"Li Yuanhao didn't catch you, an assassin, Alimu has no worries about his life for the time being, and he will do something after your father Khan comes." This man is Zhao Xian, who is easy to look at.

Seeing Yelia sobbing helplessly against the wall, Zhao Xian sighed and pulled out the handkerchief beside her and handed it to Yelia, who took it gratefully and wiped her tears

"I'm not going to do anything stupid like assassination anymore." After Yelia finished speaking, she stood up and opened the door and walked out of the door to the third floor.

At this time, the guests on the third floor drank three rounds, and the atmosphere gradually rose.

A rapid sound of strings and drums sounded in the music, and everyone was attracted by the sound and stopped drinking, at this time there was a bell at the door, and a dancer walked in, dressed in a white light dance dress, like a white white cloud, with a wide skirt, long sleeves fluttering, and flowing ribbons, barefoot, and a bell tied to each of their feet, dancing to the center of the banquet.

This dancer is accompanied by the faster and faster drum sound, and her body is also rotating like a wheel, fast and changeable, for a time the whole body ribbons flutter, the skirt is like an arc, it is the famous "Hu Xuan Dance".

Everyone was dizzy and feverish.

Suddenly, the drum stopped, the woman's soft waist bent sharply, her upper body bent backwards, her whole body was like an arched bridge, one of her streamers coincidentally brushed in front of Li Yuanhao, a fragrant wind drifted by, and Li Yuanhao grabbed the ribbon.

The music stopped, the woman straightened up, and everyone looked at the dancing girl's face, but saw that the woman's face was covered with a white veil, and she couldn't see her face clearly, only to see a pair of jasper-like eyes, which swept away, and her eyes swept through everyone's hearts like autumn water, and everyone secretly exclaimed in their hearts, "What a pair of beautiful eyes." ”

"Good! Good! , it is really beautiful like jade. Li Yuanhao took the lead in applauding.

The dancing girl Yingying walked to Li Yuanhao's seat, bowed sideways, and a voice like a silver bell sounded, "My lord, please return the ribbon to me, okay?" ”

"If the veil is removed, the ribbon will be returned to you." Li Yuanhao looked at the woman playfully.

"Adults are so rude, are you bullying the little girl?" The woman said coquettishly, and a pair of wonderful eyes swept over Li Yuanhao, and it tickled Li Yuanhao's heart.
