Su Qin hurriedly asked about the appearance and clothing of the two, and Zhou Shao described it to Su Qin, and when Su Qin heard Zhou Shao's words, he guessed that the two people were Ning Jun and Wu Jing.

He slapped his face in a hurry and said, "I have to go to the main gate to have a look, and I'll leave it to you here." As he spoke, he hurried towards the main entrance.

Su Qin was worried that the concierge of the Tian Mansion did not know Ning Jun and Wu Jing, so he blocked them from the door. Sure enough, when he arrived at the main gate, he saw Ning Jun and Wu Jing having a fierce quarrel with the gatekeeper at the gate.

The porter was shouting: "I have helped you go in to find Prime Minister Su, but he is not at the residence, how can I know if the identities of the two of you are true or false?" ”

Ning Jun didn't answer, Wu Jing argued at the porter: "If you don't worry about us, just let us go in and send someone to follow us, why always keep us out, what is this like!" ”

Su Qin hurriedly stepped forward and coughed loudly, the porter saw Su Qin, pointed at Su Qin and said to Wu Jing: "Don't quarrel with me, isn't that Prime Minister Su Cheng." ”

Ning Jun and Wu Jing turned around and found Su Qin. Wu Jing hadn't seen Su Qin for a long time, so he hurriedly ran over, bowed to Su Qin and greeted him, Su Qin also returned the salute, shook his hand at Ning Jun, and said hello to him.

Su Qin motioned for the two of them to go with him, and it was inconvenient to say more at the door. They went together to the outer courtyard of Tianfu, where the Zhao delegation was staying.

Su Qin called Zhou Shao, introduced Ning Jun and Wu Jing to him, said that the two were friends who came with him from Luoyang, and explained Wu Jingxin's task on the spot: to assist Zhou Shao in managing the daily affairs of the Zhao State Mission.

On the one hand, Zhou Shao greeted everyone, and on the other hand, he inevitably had thoughts: Could it be that Prime Minister Su Cheng was not completely at ease with himself and wanted to arrange his henchmen to participate in the affairs of the mission?

However, as the governor of the Prime Minister's Mansion and the chief of guard of the mission, of course he had to obey the instructions of the supreme commander, Prime Minister Su Cheng. Besides, it is not a good thing to have an extra helper by your side.

Therefore, Zhou Shao was also very enthusiastic, and immediately went to arrange accommodation for Wu Jing.

Su Qin knew that if he went back to his residence at this moment, he would disturb the rehearsal of the Meng sisters, so he and Ning Jun and Wu Jing temporarily had lunch at the residence of the mission.

While eating, he asked about the situation of the two of them in Yan Kingdom. Ning Jun first recounted what he had seen and heard, and he told Su Qin that after Yan Hou received Su Qin's letter, he was very happy, and specially asked himself to tell Su Qin that there was anything that Yan Guo needed to do, just mention it to Yan Hou.

Ning Jun mentioned it intentionally or unintentionally: Yan Hou asked him for advice, saying that Qin Wei had a war in Anyi City, and the war in Wei was tight, so he sent people to Yan to ask for help, and Yan Hou asked if he should help Wei.

Su Qin heard this, "oh", Wei and Qin have heavy conflicts of interest, deep grievances, and wars are common, but in two months it will be the spring of sowing crops, and the two countries must have complicated reasons for going to war at this time.

Su Qin asked Ning Jun, "Then how did you suggest it to Yan Hou?" ”

Ning Jun shook his head and replied, "Where can I manage the internal affairs of Yan Kingdom, I reasoned that I don't know the reason, and it is inconvenient to provide advice. ”

"I'm originally a general, and it's okay to command operations, but let me help Yan Guo make decisions, I don't have the ability or the mind." Ning Jun spread out his hands and smiled helplessly.

Su Qin said: "General Ning is modest, of course you also have opinions, but you don't want to say it." ”

Ning Jun was humble again, and he said, "I thought that Yanhou would ask for your opinion, but he never asked me for it. ”

Su Qin thought for a moment and replied: "That is, I don't want to send troops to save Wei, if I really want to help, I should discuss it with great fanfare." ”

Su Qin thought to himself: "At this time, the Wei State let go of the two big countries of Qi and Zhao and ran to the relatively remote and weak Yan State for help, which shows that the beggar-thy-neighbor practice for many years has offended the surrounding powers, and retribution is coming at this time!" ”

He didn't think much about it, and instead asked about the situation of Zixi Garden managed by Wu Jing, and Wu Jing told Su Qin: Since he left, Yingyi has become a frequent visitor to Zixi Garden, and will go to live in the garden in two or three days.

Wu Jing turned sideways, quietly leaned over to Su Qin's ear, and said, "I see that the relationship between the Empress Dowager of Yanguo and Liu Ping and Xiang Rong's two male servants is not normal, and she hooked up behind her back, and I thought I didn't know what to do, hmph, I just didn't say it." ”

Su Qin was of course very unhappy when he heard that Ying Yi was ambiguous with other men, but then he thought about it: Ying Yi was at the time, and she was not by her side, coupled with her aristocratic life habits since she was a child, it is normal for men and women to have hidden songs, and it is also a physical need, so why force her to die and wait for herself.

Su Qin chatted with Ning Jun and Wu Jing, and the lunch was relatively slow, which lasted for about an hour, and he saw that it was already in the afternoon, and the sun was already setting in the west, so he took Ning Jun back to the inner courtyard from the same way.

After Su Qin arrived at the residence, the Meng sisters had indeed finished the rehearsal, and they didn't know where they were.

Therefore, Su Qin arranged for Ning Jun to live in the West House of the Mingli Pavilion first.

The two chatted for a while, and when the Meng sisters came back from outside, Su Qin saw that they were holding two big burdens in their hands, which was very strange.

He pushed the door out of the house, walked in the yard, and asked where the two sisters were, and her sister Meng Di told Su Qin: They went shopping and bought something.

Su Qinxin said: "After all this, women don't delay shopping, it's really fatal." ”

Su Qin asked again: "What did you buy when you went shopping, it is so mysterious, can you tell me?" ”

The two sisters raised the burden in their hands, pouted mysteriously, and snorted lightly, but they didn't say it. Su Qin was confused by the shrewd sisters.

At sunset, the sky gradually darkened, and when Su Qin was wandering in the courtyard, another housekeeper from Tianfu came from outside, surnamed Sun, he was about sixty years old, with a long white beard, Su Qin always felt that this person was a little familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was? Where have you seen it?

Steward Sun told Su Qin and said, "King Qi has arrived at Tianfu, and Lord Tian Tong has welcomed him to the lobby, and he has sent a villain to invite Prime Minister Su to go." ”

Su Qin hurriedly agreed, and he asked Steward Sun to go back first to report to King Qi and Tian Tongsheng, saying that he would arrive immediately with the dancers of Zhao State. He immediately went to find the Meng sisters and Ning Jun, and the four of them brought the equipment needed for the performance and went to the Tianfu lobby together.

When Su Qin and the others arrived at the door of the hall, they saw that Tian Tong was already waiting there to greet them, and everyone hurriedly saluted and followed him in to pay homage to Qi Wang Tian Pijiang.

Tian Bijiang was very anxious, and when he saw Su Qin and the others, he hurriedly waved his hand to signal that he would not be polite. Su Qin saw that seven or eight seats had been placed in the lobby in accordance with the order of dignity and inferiority, and the wine and food had been neatly arranged, so they sat on their seats one by one under Tian Tong's arrangement.

Su Qin then introduced Ning Jun and the Meng sisters to the King of Qi, and when the King of Qi saw the two Zhao women with a beautiful national color, red lips and bright teeth, and a fairy appearance, his eyes were straight, and he stared at the Meng sisters motionlessly, and both of them were embarrassed.

Su Qin thought of King Qi's extremely ugly queen Zhong Lichun, and thought that King Qi was a king who didn't love beauties, but he was even more coveted when he saw beautiful women, regardless of his identity.

On the one hand, marrying an ugly woman at home, and on the other hand, seeing the lust, this King Qi is really a strange person.

After three rounds of the wine ceremony, Su Qin suggested to the King of Qi: "Zhao Guo is deeply grateful to the king for his hospitality, and specially sent a protocol doctor to meet him at the border, and arranged comfortable food and lodging. Zhao Guo did not want to repay the king's kindness, so he specially prepared the music and dance of his own country, and asked the king to give his life to offer. ”

Tian Pijiang couldn't wait for a long time, and finally saw that the wine ceremony was over, so after hearing Su Qin's request, he immediately replied: "The widow has long heard that Zhao Guo's music and dance skills are exquisite and outstanding, and I never thought that I could also appreciate Zhao Guo's miraculous skills in my Qi country." ”

He urged: "The widow is grateful for the hearts of Zhao Hou and the envoys, and I am willing to see it." ”

Su Qin then high-fived, and at this time, Ning Jun and the Meng sisters got up and pulled up the curtain in the northwest corner of the hall, where the Meng sisters quickly put on the costumes of the first music and dance, and walked to the center of the hall.

The two of them took their poses, and as the words rang out, the first music and dance began. The repertoire performed by the two is "Tao Yao", this dance shows the spring of all things sprouting, men and women meet each other, and the moving scene of returning the peach with peach, although everyone is very familiar with this music and dance, but this music and dance by the Meng sisters to perform more charming, which makes people's hearts turbulent.

King Qi was a little moved, but he still restrained himself, feeling that there was nothing new about this dance, and it was not worth applauding for it. Tian Tong saw the "Tao Yao" danced by the Meng sisters, and he also felt that it was higher than ordinary dancers, but he was a cautious person in words and deeds, and he did not react.

Tian Ming, who was sitting in the accompanying seat, as a young man, couldn't help but clap his hands when he saw such a charming and rhymed dance of youth, but he immediately found that King Qi and his father Tian Tong did not react, and hurriedly restrained his exposed emotions.

After the first dance, the Meng sisters changed their outfits again, this time they wore a narrow tunic skirt, elegant and light, with long and flowing sleeves.

When they arrived on the stage, they asked Su Qin to hit the knot with two wooden planks and began a more rhythmic waist bending dance. I saw them dancing in the beat, their bodies making all kinds of unbelievable movements, leaning back to the ground like folding fans, and raising their feet over their shoulders, their bodies were like willows in the wind, charming from the wind, and like turbulent branches, fluttering.

King Qi had seen a soft and charming dance, but he had never seen such a nephrite jade fragrance, slender and delicate, and strange dance skills, and he was stunned there, staring at the movements of the Meng sisters without blinking, for fear of missing a novel detail.
