Chapter 223: The Xingshi Inquiry is Coming

The night was dark, and Shi Wei was pacing back and forth in the building.

The footsteps outside never stopped, and figures came and went from time to time in front of the window.

It has been half a day since the "Yeluxian Incident", and it is still calm outside, and nothing has changed.

Shi Wei knew very well that in the quiet night, a drastic change was brewing.

Youzhou City is like a volcano that is ready to erupt, and it may erupt anytime and anywhere.

Shi Wei didn't want to stay here, waiting to be burned to death by the rolling lava, he had never been so desperate to return to his homeland as he was now.

The door was pushed open, and Yang Yanqi came in with his sword, "Everyone has already packed up and can leave at any time." ”

Shi Wei nodded, picked up a letter and handed it to Yang Yanqi, and advised: "You send this document to the Liaoren Yamen, and we will set off early tomorrow morning." ”

"Hmm." Yang Yanqi took the paperwork, turned around and wanted to leave.

At this moment, Xiong Qingye hurried over, and said with a solemn expression: "My lord, something is wrong, a large number of Liao soldiers suddenly appeared on the street outside, and they were surrounding the entire building. ”

Shi Wei's heart chuckled.

The sudden increase in troops of the Liao people at such a time is obviously a bad sign.

Could it be that Yeluxian is not dead? Or maybe Xiao Xuan didn't control the situation in time?

"Tell everyone not to panic, be on guard, and go out with me to have a look." Shi Wei calmed down and hurried to the gate with a group of subordinates.

At this time, the gate of the hall was already bright, and countless torches illuminated the vicinity of the gate as bright as day.

The strength of the troops around the gate has nearly tripled, and more than 300 heavily armed sergeants have blocked the gate.

Seeing the menacing momentum of this group of Liao soldiers, they almost rushed in with an order to kill a river of blood.

Shi Wei glanced at the Liao soldiers, took a deep breath, and walked calmly towards the door with his head held high.

The Liao soldiers at the gate immediately lined up in a column and blocked Shi Wei's way.

Shi Wei glared at the other party and said sharply: "The envoy is going out to meet your minister, so don't you quickly give the way to the envoy." ”

The Khitan warriors at the door stood like iron towers, not moving, completely ignoring Shi Wei's reprimand.

Yang Yanqi next to him was angry on the spot, drew his sword out of the sheath, and shouted: "Whoever dares to stand in the way, my aunt and grandmother will cut off his head." ”

As soon as Yang Yanqi pulled out his sword like this, hundreds of Liao soldiers also pulled out their blades one after another, and then, the Song army soldiers behind Shi Wei hurriedly pulled out their swords.

The sound of metal friction was loud for a while, and the two sides were tense, facing each other through a gate, and a fight was inevitable.

Shi Wei is not stupid, if he really starts to do this, he will not be asking for his own death.

He was so loud just now, if he didn't sound good, he was bluffing, and now the Liao soldiers refused to back down half a step, and his heart suddenly became empty.

It's just that as an envoy of the Great Song Dynasty, he is now trapped in the pavilion by the Liao people and prisoners, which is really a big damage to the national prestige of the Great Song Dynasty, and Shi Wei naturally can't turn a blind eye.

Shi Wei signaled Yang Yanqi and the others not to be impulsive, and instead said loudly: "I am an envoy of the Song Dynasty, and it is really rude for you to behave like this, and you must give me a reasonable explanation." ”

The Liao soldiers were still silent.

Suddenly, the Liao soldiers parted ways, and an armed man strode over.

The one who came was none other than Jerry Goba.

"Brother Jerod came just in time, I want to ask, what do you mean by that?" Shi Wei said with a frown.

Yelu Gaoba arched his hand and said: "I am also acting on orders, I have to do this, and I hope Brother Shi will forgive me." ”

Shi Wei snorted coldly: "I came with the sincerity of the Great Song Emperor, I don't steal or rob, why do you want to besiege it with heavy troops, what kind of absurd order is this." ”

"My Majesty suddenly fell ill with Brother Shi, and if something is suspicious, we have no choice but to do it, and please understand Brother Shi."

Yelu Gaoba's words made Shi Wei's heart sink, it seems that the Liao side is not all fools, they have already doubted this.

His thoughts were racing, and Shi Wei suddenly laughed, "Brother Yelu, you shouldn't suspect that I did your majesty's illness." ”

Yelu Gaoba was silent, which was tantamount to acquiescing to Shi Wei's words.

"Your Majesty is already sick, and it may have an attack at any time, anyway, I have a clear conscience, you can do whatever you want."

Shi Wei calmly showed his "innocence", so he ordered Yang Yanqi and the others to withdraw, and there was no need to confront the Liao soldiers anymore.

Yang Yanqi had to temporarily suppress his anger and ordered his subordinates to collect their weapons.

As soon as the Song army collected the weapons, the Liao soldiers under the eighth order of Yelu Gao collected the weapons, and he arched his hand and said: "We are also doing this for Your Majesty's dragon body, if this matter has nothing to do with Brother Shi, this siege will be withdrawn, and I will personally come to apologize to Brother Shi." ”

Shi Wei didn't respond, just sneered and turned back to the hall.

Yang Yanqi followed Shi Wei back to the room, closed the door, and asked anxiously: "If the Liao lord really has three long and two short, I think this class of Khitan dogs will definitely splash this dirty water on us, what should we do when the time comes?" ”

Shi Wei sat down, took a sip of tea, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, the Liao people are just pretending, no matter whether the Liao Emperor dies or not, they don't dare to do anything to us." ”

Shi Wei's self-confidence did not come out of nowhere.

He knew very well that if Ye Luxian died, the ruler of the Liao State would be Xiao Xuan, so that he could rest easy.

Even if Xiao Xuan can't control the overall situation, with the new death of the Liao Emperor shaking the hearts of the people in the country, the most feared thing is that the Great Song Dynasty will take advantage of the fire to rob, so that the Liao people will not dare to do anything to Shi Wei, the envoy of the Great Song Dynasty.

Yang Yanqi sighed: "You said it lightly, I still hope that Emperor Liao is fine, and you will really be inseparable from it when the time comes." ”

Shi Weixin said that on the contrary, Yeluxian didn't want my life until he died.

Unless Ye Luxian is not a man and can endure it with such a big green hat, then his forbearance is really worse than Gou Jian.

Of course, Shi Wei couldn't tell her this kind of unspeakable secret, and he could only laugh at it.

Time passed minute by minute, and before I knew it, it was already dawning.

After dawn, the situation outside was a little more strange than yesterday.

It turned out that not a single pedestrian could be seen in the lively street market, and from time to time there were groups of patrol soldiers passing by.

It seems that the Liao people have imposed martial law on the entire Youzhou City, and looking at this kind of formation, it must be what a major event happened in the palace.

Shi Wei was besieged in the pavilion and completely lost contact with the outside world, and the Liao State was undergoing drastic changes, but he was unable to find out the news.

The siege continued for another day, and the Liao still refused to withdraw from the siege, but there was no further action.

In the evening of that day, Shi Wei was pondering the current situation from the house, when he suddenly heard another commotion at the door.

Shi Weisheng was afraid that his own people had a conflict with the Liao soldiers, and he was in a hurry to rush to the battle.

When he arrived at the gate, he found that it was not his subordinates who clashed, but the Liao soldiers themselves.

"Get out of here, let me in!"

In the crowd outside the door, Shi Wei heard a familiar shouting and scolding.

When he opened his eyes, he saw Yelu Siyun standing outside the horse siege soldiers, yelling at those Liao soldiers.

No one in the Liao soldiers dared to squeak, and because of the orders from above, they didn't dare to let her in without permission.

Yelu Siyun was furious, suddenly pulled out his scimitar, and said sharply: "Dog, whoever dares to stand in my way, I will cut off his head." ”

The bright scimitar lit up in the air, and all the Liao soldiers changed color.

Then Yelu Siyun rushed forward with a sword, looking at that murderous look, who dared to stand in her way, she really wouldn't show mercy.

The Liao soldiers panicked at this time, knowing that the county lord's surname was arrogant, and he could do what he said, so they all made a way out of the way.

The corners of Yelu Siyun's mouth raised a touch of pride, and he rode through the besiegers and entered the pavilion.

"The county lord is so majestic." Shi Wei stood at the bottom of the stairs and said with a smile.

Jeruth jumped off his horse and strode straight at him.

"Don't talk nonsense, you come with me, I have something to tell you."

She didn't wait for Shi Wei to react, and dragged Shi Wei to the backyard.

The soldiers of Song and Liao who were present all had strange eyes and watched the two of them leave in front of them.

Syllable! The door was slammed slam behind her.

"Jun-" Before Shi Wei could say a word, he saw a cold light flash in front of him, and the bright scimitar was already on his neck.

Yelu Siyun held a scimitar and glared at him with a cold gaze that had never been seen before.

She's here to ask the teacher......

Shi Wei felt a chill in his heart, but he pretended to be at a loss on the surface, and smiled helplessly: "County Lord, did you come all the way here just to give me a knife?" ”

"Let me ask you, was Your Majesty killed by you?" Yelu Siyun asked loudly.

"Your Majesty, how is he doing now?" Shi Wei asked rhetorically.

Yelu Siyun bit her red lip and said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, he just died last night. ”

Jeluxian, dead!

Hearing this long-awaited news, Shi Wei breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, but he felt a little guilty in his heart, after all, Ye Luxian's death was caused by himself, and he was still gloating like this now, which was inevitably a little unkind.

But he thought about it again, to get bigger, Yeluxian is the emperor of the enemy country, and to say smaller, he is a rival in love with himself who robs women.

In public and private, it is not an exaggeration to be angry with him.

Thinking like this, Shi Wei felt a lot more comfortable, but on the surface, he showed regret and sighed: "I really didn't expect the emperor of your country to go like this, it's a pity, and I ask the county lord to mourn." ”

"You are big, you haven't answered me yet, Your Majesty, was he killed by you?" The knife in Yelu Siyun's hand tightened.

Shi Wei's face also sank, and he said coldly: "Why should I harm your emperor, am I crazy and impatient, do you think I, Shi Wei, am this kind of stupid person?" ”

Shi Wei's series of rhetorical questions, coupled with that disappointed look, quickly suppressed Yelu Siyun's aggressive mood.

"In this case, Your Majesty's death has nothing to do with you......"

"Barbarian woman, let him go!"

Yelu Siyun didn't finish speaking, but when she heard a loud shout, Yang Yanqi broke out of the door, and the long sword in her hand stabbed at her with a roar.
