Chapter 554: The Inner Courtyard of the Palace
Like Wenman and Li Chengan, Yelu Buhua and Ping Qingsheng also got together.
"Akagi Qin forgets, it really lives up to its reputation." Yelu let out a long sigh and sighed.
"Lord Yelu, could it be that Qin Forget just let it go?" Ping Qingsheng did not have a trace of arrogance on his face, and looked at Yelu Buhua very respectfully.
"Leave him alone? How can it be? Yelu Buhua said coldly, "No matter how strong Qin Forget is, he is just one person. If Emperor Yan was smart enough, he would hand him over, otherwise, if my Khitan army went south, he would regret it. "Jerod is not arrogant.
In fact, what he didn't say was that he saw Qin Wang's ability today, and he wanted to get rid of Qin Wang, once Qin Wang's strength went up a few steps, it would be really troublesome. Looking at Dayan, there is only one Qin Forget who is feared, and getting rid of him will also clear the obstacles for the Khitans to go south in the future.
"Qin Forget has repeatedly attacked our two countries, it is really a crime that deserves death, Lord Yelu, this time he will kill him if he says anything."
"Our Khitan army of 30,000 has been assembled, and we will be able to go south in a few days. How are you Dongying people's sailors? Hearing that Ping Qingsheng dared to compare the small Dongying Kingdom with the Khitan Kingdom, Yelu Buhua was very unhappy, but thinking that the common enemy of the two of them now is Qin Wang, and the Khitan Kingdom still relies on the sailors of the Dongying people, he also pressed it down and did not have a seizure.
"Lord Yelu rest assured, the three hundred warships of the Great Eastern Ying Kingdom are ready to go, as long as Emperor Yan does not hand over Qin Wang, he will go south immediately." Ping Qingsheng is very arrogant, he can send 300 warships in one breath, and his skill is indeed not small, but he doesn't want to think about whether he can get a bargain if he can get a bargain if he really fights with the crispy little Ding shell of the Dongying people.
"That's good, it's ridiculous that Wenman and Li Chengan thought that we would listen to them. Look at it, this time they saw that Qin Forget had made such a great achievement, they would definitely retreat, let's not care about them, if they don't let us do it, we will pretend to promise them, and then there will be a surprise attack, Lord Ben wants to see what their expressions are. ”
Thinking of the arrogant appearance of Wen and Li, especially the kind of face that prides itself on the Celestial Empire, Ping Qingsheng is also very unhappy, "The Han people are always timid, cowardly, and only know infighting, they really don't deserve to have such a good land." ”
"Let them be proud for a while, and when my Great Khitan Kingdom frees up, the Central Plains will definitely be ours." Jeremiah is very confident.
"When the time comes, if your country is useful to our place in the Great Dongying Kingdom, please also ask your country to instruct that the Dongying Kingdom does not ask for much, but only one or two states." Ping Kiyomori hurried and said fun.
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say." Yelu Buhua laughed, as if he had really laid down the flower world of the Central Plains.
According to the prior arrangement, after the military parade, a grand celebration banquet will be held in the palace, one is to show Cao Ziwen's great achievements, the other is to reward the hard work of the soldiers, and the third is to let the envoys of various countries see the majesty of Dayan.
It was the first time for Qin Forget to participate in such a high-level banquet, and he took Yu Zhen, Gu Zhixin, and Chen Chumo to sit in the farthest corner from the emperor, and couldn't help but look left and right.
I saw that the entire palace was decorated with lights, and countless huge lanterns were hung, exuding a red glow. Even the original bare trees are covered with colorful fake flowers and green leaves made of silk, and it really looks like a prosperous summer.
The emperor's throne was placed in the middle, and not far from both sides of it, there were more than a dozen small tables, which were where several important ministers and foreign envoys of Dayan sat down. Around them, there are hundreds of large round tables, surrounded by stars and moons. Unlike them, these ministers are not qualified to have one case per person, they are all six people per table. The shared meal system has been popular all over the world for a long time, but for important guests, there is still a separate meal system, but it is no longer so thorough.
There was also a wide variety of food on the table, flying in the sky, walking on the ground, and swimming in the water. Eight cold and twelve hot, filling the entire table, Qin Forget even saw two plates of green vegetables that could not be seen at all in winter. There was a wine jug made of Jun porcelain in front of everyone, and even if the wine was not poured out, Qin Wang could smell the rich aroma of wine inside. The two old drunkards, Yu Zhen and Chen Chumo, who were greedy, kept swallowing their saliva, and they couldn't wait to catch them and drink them all immediately. Gu Zhixin was much more promising than them, sitting on the stool honestly, his fiery eyes scanning the throne from time to time, and his face showed a fanatical and worried look.
Qin Forget knew in his heart that Gu Zhixin was excited, and he was about to meet the Ninety-Five Venerable who made him grateful to Dade, so it was not surprising that he would behave like this.
Qin Forget sighed secretly, he knew in his heart that he and Gu Zhixin were not all the way after all, Gu Zhixin admired the imperial power too much, worshiped to the point of blindness, and even a little stupid and loyal, they were destined to part ways. However, Qin Forget will not be greedy for the credit of Gu Zhixin and Yu Zhen this time, this time the first army has such a brilliant performance, and the credit of the two is indeed not small. He just hoped that he wouldn't fight the two in the future.
Youzhou City has arrived from the civil and military generals above the fifth grade, except for those on duty, there are more than 200 people, and it coincides with such a big happy event, it stands to reason that everyone should be happy in their hearts, but the atmosphere at the scene is strange and depressing. Everyone knows that this time Dayan didn't save face, the daytime parade was really bad, if it weren't for Qin Wang's Zhenbei First Army's performance was really amazing, saving face for Dayan, these ministers were really embarrassed to come to this celebration banquet. And the grapevine came, His Majesty the Emperor was so angry, this celebration banquet was almost canceled, everyone was clear, I am afraid that many people will step down this time. If nothing else, at least the officers of the cavalry, the Imperial Forest Army, and the Zhendong and Zhennan armies will definitely change blood. Naturally, all the civil and military officials thought of Qin Wang, who turned the tide.
Even if he was cowering in the corner, Qin Forget had nothing to hide. The civil and military officials looked at him consciously or unconsciously, or surprised, or hateful, or jealous, or jealous, and there was little kindness. Mu Xiu is in the forest, the wind will destroy it, Qin Forget knows that today's limelight is bigger, after tonight, I'm afraid there is no official who doesn't know him, he simply doesn't care, pretending not to see the eyes around him, calm, and whispering a few words to a few subordinates from time to time.
His attitude can annoy others, because Qin Forget is a military general, and the place where he sits is naturally mostly military generals. From time to time, a few men dressed in military uniforms such as strong generals threw vicious glances at him, as if they wanted to eat him alive.
"General, pay attention to that table." Chen Chumo moved closer to Qin Forget and said softly, "That bald man is called Zhang Wenbo, and he is the commander of the Zhendong Army and a member of the Zhao family. The red-faced man is called Wen Tai, a member of the Wen family, the commander of the Zhennan Army, and they seem to be very malicious towards the general. ”
"Hey, don't ask, they hate the general now." Yu Zhen sneered, "During today's military parade, they behaved
is so bad, I wish others were like them, and they couldn't show their difference. It's just that our Zhenbei First Army shines, compared to how ugly and ugly they are, they can't even keep their official positions, can they not resent the general? ”
Qin Forget smiled indifferently, not looking at those clowns in the slightest, "Low-key, now we are the target of everyone, don't be caught." ”
Several people nodded yes again and again.
"Hey, you're that Qin Wang." At this moment, a crisp voice sounded beside several people.
Qin Forget looked up, a very fair-skinned little palace maid stood beside him, the palace maid looked only eleven or twelve years old, her facial features had not grown at all, her small nose and face were very exquisite, a pair of smart big eyes, from time to time she revealed a strange look of elves, and her delicate appearance was like a little sister next door, very cute.
Qin Forget was a little stunned, why were the little palace maids in this palace so bold, and she was also a dignified general Dingyuan, a figure who had just made a great contribution to Dayan. But he didn't get angry, the little palace maid in front of him seemed to have a kind of magic power, which could make people feel good for no reason, "I am, is there anything wrong with you?" He asked, smiling.
Seeing that Qin Wang, who was rumored to be miraculous, was not a few years older than herself, and she didn't look like a soldier on her body, the little palace maid tilted her head and looked at Qin Wang.
"You're nothing special, aren't you, aren't you?" After looking at it for a long time, she asked suspiciously, the meaning of the words can suffocate people.
"You little palace maid is so unruly, dare to question our general." Before Qin Forget could speak, Gu Zhixin said unhappily.
"You are so unruly, I am talking to your general, what are you talking to as a subordinate?" The little girl rolled her eyes and said to Gu Zhixin in disgust.
"You ......" Gu Zhixin was furious, but he was so suffocated by the words of the little palace maid that he couldn't speak.
"Okay, second brother, why bother to be like a little girl." Seeing this little palace maid's sharp teeth, Qin Forget smiled, "And the little girl, he is not my subordinate, he is my second brother." These words gave Gu Zhi a new face.
"Hmph, they all say how smart you Qin Forget is, I don't believe it, I want to compete with you." The little palace maid crossed her waist and said to Qin Forget unconvinced.
Hearing this, everyone burst into laughter, I really don't know where the little palace maid came from, she is so eccentric.
Qin Wang's heart sank slightly, he firmly believed that those who could walk in the palace, down to the eunuchs and palace maids, to the queen and concubine, none of them were simple. The little palace maid in front of her is so innocent and has no rules, how did she survive until now. The only explanation is that she is not ordinary. But I haven't heard that the emperor has such a big princess.
"Hey! What are you laughing at? Believe it or not, I'll clean you up! Seeing Yu Zhen and them laughing, the little palace maid was immediately unhappy, but she inadvertently looked into the distance, and her little face changed, "Qin Wang, let you go today, let's try again next time." With that, he ran away like a gust of wind.
Qin Forget smiled bitterly and shook his head, what a strange girl.
"Qin Wang, let's meet again." Without Qin forgetting to think about it, a majestic voice sounded behind them.
Qin Forget looked at it, it was Zhang Ye, General Zhang, and Yu Zheng who came over.
"The last general has seen General Zhang, Lord Yu." Qin Forget hurriedly stood up with his three subordinates and saluted in unison.
