Chapter 230: There Are Still Smart People
Ru Mao drank blood, that is a thing that only savages do, and the noble and elegant envoy of the Great Song Dynasty would never make such a mistake, Zhao Zongjing wanted to explode, Wang Ningan looked around, and suddenly grinned. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
He stood up and walked to the back of his seat, where there was a row of lanterns, and removed the lampshade from the plain yarn, revealing a candle the thickness of an arm's length. In the lower part of the candle, there is also the words of Tian Kee Workshop, yes, this is the whale oil candle produced in Ping County.
I have to say that the sinicization of Liao has reached a point, and it has only appeared for a year or two, and they have used it here.
Wang Ning'an looked at it for a while, smiled and pulled down the candle, took it to the table, and after putting it away, he nailed the two ends of the meat strip with a dagger, put the meat strip on the candle flame, and roasted it.
Seeing this scene, all the nobles of the Liao Kingdom almost jumped up and beat people.
Wang Ningan didn't care, "This is called doing it yourself, having enough food and clothing, go and get me some spices and green salt, the huge Liao Kingdom won't even understand this little rule, right?" ”
Seeing Wang Ning'an's approach, Zhao Zongjing was happy, he turned around, got two candles, and roasted them with relish, while roasting, he also said: "Lord Wang, the meat of beef leg is called cucumber strips, it is very tender, and it can also be eaten raw!" ”
Bah!
You can eat it raw but you don't eat it!
If there is no one next to these two goods, all the nobles of the Liao Kingdom are embarrassed and angry, and they don't know how to deal with it, when it comes to bickering, they are not Wang Ning'an's opponents together, if they want to do it, the other party's status is noble, and they don't dare to come nonsense without orders from above.
The whale oil candle flame is sufficient, and in a short time, the beef has been cooked for six or seven percent.
Wang Ningan was about to cut it into small pieces and taste the taste, and finally someone couldn't help it, and a young man wearing a bright yellow dragon robe rushed in from the corner gate next to him, he rushed to Wang Ning'an angrily, glared angrily, and said: "Song Envoy is so frivolous, is he bullying me Daliao no one?" ”
Judging from the dress and age, Wang Ningan quickly judged that this was the crown prince Yelu Hongji.
Wang Ningan put the meat strip in his hand into the tray, and said with a smile: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, it is you who are rude, feasting guests, is this your hospitality?" ”
Yelu Hongji glared at him, "My warriors of the Liao Kingdom are fearless, and raw meat is our favorite!" ”
"That's good! Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has said, then please bring a few more cows, everyone here, each person will have one, if everyone can eat, we will naturally accompany it, if ...... Hehe, don't do to others what you don't want to do to yourself, and please forgive His Royal Highness the Prince! ”
"This!"
One sentence asked Yelu Hongji, counting it, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has long been contaminated with the habits of the Song people, paying attention to not getting tired of eating, not getting tired of being fine, there are dozens of chefs alone, and it is definitely difficult for a strong man to let him eat raw meat.
Seeing that Yelu Hongji didn't speak, Wang Ning'an laughed, "His Royal Highness the Prince, just now I used a candle flame to barbecue meat, this candle is the whale oil candle produced in Pingxian County, the flame is sufficient, the light is bright and bright, there are few fireworks, and there is a faint aroma, it is really a fine candle." In my opinion, this candle and beef are like our Song and Liao countries. ”
"How?" Yelu Hongji said angrily.
"It's very simple, cooperation is two benefits, and division is two harms!" Wang Ningan said emotionally: "This time we traveled thousands of miles to Liao and brought rich orders, and we are sincere." There is no shortage of knowledgeable people in your country who are well aware of the benefits of trade. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince shoulders the future of the Liao Kingdom, and it should be very clear that the pros and cons of the people's livelihood and the hardships of the people. The two sides communicate with each other, each takes what they need, it is a matter of course, the Liao country is full of warmth, the Great Song Dynasty is rich, such a good thing, why can't His Royal Highness the Crown Prince figure it out? ”
Wang Ningan's acting skills, Zhao Zongjing gave 101 points, his tone, with his expression, was full of compassion, as if he was really worried about the peace between the two countries.
Staring at his eyes and talking nonsense, he can still tell nonsense in a reasonable way, Wang Ningan is the first person.
Yelu Hongji is young in the end, and his experience is not good, and he was so confused by Wang Ningan's words that he didn't know what to say.
"You Song people are cunning and full of lies, I don't believe it!"
"Your Royal Highness the Prince, we can sign a contract, if the Great Song side can't fulfill its promise, the iron cavalry of the Liao State is in your hands, and you can send troops south. Trust is on both sides, we are also under domestic pressure, although the products of the Liao State are abundant, but it is not necessary for the Great Song Dynasty, if the trade route is really banned, it is not good for whom, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince knows best. Over the years, you have repeatedly proposed to expand the scale of the field, why did my Da Song really accept it, but you retreated? Could it be that the Liao Kingdom is afraid of me? ”
"Joke, I have a million armor soldiers in the Liao Kingdom, and I am invincible in the world, how can I be afraid of you!" Yelu Hongji said proudly.
Zhao Zongjing also stood up at this time, "Since you are not afraid, why don't you dare to start trading?" ”
"This?"
Yelu Hongji was asked again, he was not good at words, and his face turned red. Looking back, the nobles he found were the most conservative people, and they couldn't even speak Chinese clearly, and they couldn't argue for him.
In desperation, Yeluhongki shouted: "Mr. Mousavi, please come out!" ”
Wang Ningan was stunned for a moment, and suddenly a tall and thin old man walked out, wearing a black robe, a high nose, green eyeballs, and a thick beard, it turned out to be a bearded man!
Wang Ningan was taken aback, and said in his heart what the hell is this!
The old man was personable, and when he came to Yelu Hongji, he bowed deeply.
"Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, your servant Mousavi has been courteous."
Yelu Hongji nodded, and then said to Wang Ning'an: "Song envoy, this is a scholar from Persia, named Musavi, it is he who has exposed your ghost tricks!" ”
Wang Ningan smiled calmly, "My actions are above board, it's not a trick!" ”
Mousavi actually bowed his head in agreement, and he smiled and said: "What the Song envoy said is good, his deeds are indeed righteous and bright, but no matter how great a person is, he can't hide his shadow, the Song envoy hides his despicable and insidious intentions under a gorgeous coat, and confuses people who are not strong in mind and have a bad mind." ”
Yelu Hongji said solemnly: "Please Mr. Explicit?" ”
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Musavi was born in Persia, a land of war, from which countless great kings were born, many of whom were like meteors in the sky, flashing by, and only an emperor who is as wise as the sea and as tough as a mountain can dominate the world and establish an eternal empire. Those failed kings all listened to the bewitchment of traitors, and indulged in exquisite goods, gorgeous women, and extravagant enjoyment...... These evil things have softened the iron arms and broken the rocky hearts, and there is no longer the courage to reign over the world and the ambition to conquer the world! ”
"Them!"
Mousavi suddenly pointed at Wang Ning'an and said loudly: "They are thieves with evil intentions, they use their wealth to corrupt His Highness's ambitions and destroy His Highness's kingdom!" They are the most terrible vipers, the most cunning devils...... They wrap their ambitions in a vain attempt to deceive the wise Highness, don't fall for them, otherwise the bronze and iron empire will collapse, and the great king will disappear like a meteor quickly......"
"Say no more!"
Yelu Hongji suddenly shouted loudly: "You understand! Don't try to deceive me, your so-called business and trade cooperation is to destroy the foundation of the Liao State, and I will never agree! ”
Surprised, surprised!
Wang Ningan couldn't have imagined that a guy from Persia would tell his plan clearly, yes, that's what he planned.
It's really a foreign monk who can chant the scriptures, and his eyes are vicious enough.
Suddenly, Zhao Zongjing was also startled, and said in his heart that if he planned well, it wouldn't be over like this, right?
Wang Ning'an's face was as usual, and he smiled, "His Royal Highness the Prince, since you have listened to the words of a Hu person, then I have nothing to say, so I will leave." ”
After speaking, Wang Ningan walked outside, and Zhao Zongjing hurriedly followed. Yeluhonki grasped the hilt of his sword, but did not pull it out, and watched them leave.
……
"I said, Lord Wang, what can I do about this?" Zhao Zongjing said worriedly.
Wang Ningan smiled bitterly, "What else can I do?" Wait! ”
"Wait?" Zhao Zongjing changed color and said: "Everyone has exposed your schemes, waiting for the Liao people to kill you?" ”
Wang Ningan still kept calm, "If they want to do it, they will do it a long time ago, I really want to see how many Taoists this Yelu Hongji has!" ”
In the next few days, Wang Ning'an's camp was completely stopped, and no one from the Liao nobles came, and the outside was guarded by samurai, and they were not allowed to go out, but fortunately, there were still people who brought food and water every day, so that they would not starve to death.
But they don't know anything about the outside, it's like being held in a cage.
Zhao Zongjing didn't work for a few days, but the corners of his mouth were blistered, he couldn't eat, he couldn't sleep, and he quickly lost a lot of weight.
Wang Ning'an couldn't see anything, he ate as usual every day, and in his spare time, he asked Yang Xi to accompany him to practice martial arts, and sometimes he called Su Banniang and wrote poems. Wang Ningan had already sworn not to write poetry, but there was still stock in his stomach, and he began to write "The Legend of the West Chamber", "The Peony Pavilion", "The Palace of Eternal Life" and other tracks.
Su Banniang is unparalleled, and she can help modify the inappropriateness, consider the singing, modify the words, babble, and have a lot of fun, completely forgetting where they are.
Zhao Zongjing was completely speechless, and lamented: "Lord Wang, can you have a snack?" ”
This little prince is like a fish out of the pile of bitter water, from head to toe, full of desolation and despair, Wang Ningan suddenly laughed.
"I said little prince, if there is no news, it is the best news, you won't even understand this, right?"
Zhao Zongjing shook his head blankly.
Su Banniang couldn't help but smile, "Lord Wang, there is no news to prove that there are serious differences within the Liao State, and there is a stalemate between support and opposition, at this time, we just wait for the opportunity, and it is useless to be anxious." ”
While he was talking, suddenly Wu Shicheng came running with a person, he was wearing the clothes of a soldier, and when he got closer, Wang Ningan recognized that it was Yelu Renxian.
"Lord Wang, hurry up and get an idea!"
