Chapter 146: Bloodstains
Xiao Xuan changed his tone, and did not seem to want to stiffen the relationship between the two countries.
Shi Wei was only ordered by the Son of Heaven to warn the Liao State, and now that the task has been completed, there is naturally no need for him to lose face to Xiao Xuan.
At that moment, Shi Wei's expression also turned to mildness, and he happily thanked him.
In the afternoon, the royal tent has become a scene of singing and laughter, and a grand banquet is held in the imperial tent.
Since Empress Xiao and onwards, many civil and military officials of the Liao State who accompanied Emperor Liao on patrol have attended this banquet specially for Shi Wei, and even the sick and weak Yeluxian also attended the banquet.
However, Ye Luxian only showed his face once, and after reluctantly giving Shi Wei a glass of imperial wine, he dragged his sick body away.
After Ye Luxian left, the entire banquet was presided over by Xiao Xuan.
This queen in her early twenties, solemn and amiable, with a bit of gentleness of a female surname in her majesty, methodically controlled the situation of the entire banquet, and drank with the ministers and Shi Wei one by one.
Shi Wei sat down, dealing with some politeness at the banquet while observing Xiao Xuan quietly.
The group of Liao ministers under the imperial ladder had many veterans and important ministers, and powerful generals, but they were all obedient to Xiao Xuan.
He gradually discovered that although Xiao Xuan was young and a woman, his ability to control the situation was really extraordinary.
"In the past, the dignified Song Dynasty was forced to sign the Lanyuan Alliance by the Liao State under the leadership of this woman, and now it seems that this woman is really a powerful character......
Just as he was figuring it out, he suddenly heard drum music, and a group of Khitan beauties danced into the tent and danced to cheer up.
The wine was strong, and there were singing and dancing to cheer up, and the surrounding Liao ministers were suddenly interested, clapping their hands again, and drinking again, and the bearing in the tent suddenly became thicker.
When Shi Wei was tasting wine, he looked at the Hu girls and couldn't help but light up his eyes.
Among the bearded girls, the beauty who was arched by the stars and the moon was not Yelu Siyun.
When he was in Xiongzhou, Shi Wei had seen her dance with a very grassland style, and now when he saw her style again, he couldn't help but be moved by it.
The dancing Yelu Siyun is still like a cheerful lark, flying freely between the grassland and the blue sky.
The writhing waist branches, the dancing four waists, although not as delicate as the Central Plains dance, but have their own free and easy style.
Unconsciously, Shi Wei looked a little distracted.
And Yelu Siyun, who is dancing, inadvertently, seems to be flirting with him.
The silky eyes only stirred Shi Wei's reverie.
After the dance, thunderous cheers rang out in the imperial tent.
Shi Wei woke up from his distraction, was stunned for a moment, and then clapped with everyone.
Xiao Xuan, who was on the throne, asked with a smile: "Shi Envoy, how does the dance of the beauties of my Great Liao Kingdom compare with the Central Plains." ”
Shi Wei wanted to blurt out praise, but the words of praise came to his mouth and swallowed it back.
He paused for a moment, and replied lightly: "Each has its own merits." ”
As an envoy, Shi Wei always has to maintain the honor of the Great Song Kingdom, even if it is a trivial matter such as the level of dancing, which seems to be a sesame mung bean, he can't ignore it.
Yelu Siyun was looking at him expectantly, as if he was waiting to accept his praise, and when he heard the phrase "each has its own merits", a smiling face immediately darkened.
Regarding Shi Wei's diplomatic rhetorical answer, Xiao Xuan seemed to have expected it, and just smiled.
Yelu Siyun glared at him, and went to the throne unhappily, serving Empress Xiao on the side.
Although she is Xiao Xuan's junior, the two are of the same age, and they seem to have a close relationship with each other.
Shi Wei was saluted by the monarchs and ministers of the Liao State, and as a return gift, he raised his glass, got up and walked to Xiao Xuan, and said with a cup: "Xiaguan respects the queen's mother, thank you for your hospitality." ”
Xiao Xuan owed, smiled and raised his glass to drink.
Shi Wei also drank it all, and when he was about to return to his seat, he suddenly noticed something unusual.
He found that there were some dark red marks on the clothes on Xiao Xuan's chest.
As a doctor, Shi Wei quickly concluded that it was actually traces of blood, and it was still fresh.
"Why is there blood on Xiao Xuan's chest?"
Shi Wei was curious in his heart, and out of the instinct of a doctor, he couldn't help but take a few more looks.
Xiao Xuan had an insight into the situation, and Shi Wei's slightly strange eyes naturally couldn't escape her eyes.
It's just that Xiao Sui only said that Shi Wei took a few more glances because of her beauty.
Thinking like this, Xiao Xuan was not surprised, but her beautiful face inadvertently revealed a little pleasure.
At this time, Yelu Siyun, who was serving beside him, also noticed Shi Wei's expression.
Previously, she was complaining that Shi Wei did not praise her dance, but at this time, when she saw Shi Wei staring at Empress Xiao's chest, she didn't think much about it, and even reprimanded: "Lord Shi, how dare you peep at the queen mother like this, so rude." ”
Yelu Siyun's voice was very loud, and her shouting was heard by all the Liao people in the tent.
It was a noisy imperial tent, but it was a lot quieter all of a sudden, and the eyes of many Liao ministers were invariably attracted to it.
Feeling a bundle of suspicious eyes behind him, Shi Wei suddenly realized the embarrassment of his situation.
As an envoy of the Great Song Dynasty, he rudely peeped at the queen of Liaobang, if this was passed on, it would be a blow to his reputation.
Shi Wei's mind flickered, and he said: "The county lord misunderstood, how dare the lower official peep at the queen's mother, the lower official just accidentally saw that there seemed to be blood stains in front of the mother, so he took a few more looks." ”
As soon as these words came out, Xiao Sui's face changed, and when she looked down and saw that there was really blood on her chest, her expression became quite embarrassed.
Yelu Siyun looked down, and when she saw the blood stains on Xiao Xuan's chest, her pretty face also changed, and she exclaimed: "Niangniang, it's not you who ...... again."
Before her words fell, Xiao Xuan hurriedly glanced at her, so that she could no longer look at her.
Yelu Siyun understood, and quickly closed his mouth in the middle of the conversation.
"The queen is a little drunk, so I won't accompany you first, and the ministers will take the queen's place, and accompany the stone envoy to have a few more drinks of bars."
As she spoke, Xiao Xuan stood up with her hands on her forehead as if she was drunk, and she put one hand in front of her, and her sleeves just covered the blood stains on her chest.
Xiao Xuan was obviously pretending to be drunk, and she also covered her chest with her hands, obviously not wanting the ministers to see the blood on her chest.
Seeing Xiao Xuan's state, Shi Wei was naturally suspicious.
It's just that with Shi Wei's current identity, since Xiao Sui deliberately covered it up, he didn't want to ask more.
At that moment, Shi Wei stood solemnly on the side, and like all Liao ministers, he sent Xiao Xuan away.
Xiao Xuan, with the support of Yelu Siyun, pretended to be drunk and left the big tent, and just after leaving the tent, her drunkenness disappeared.
In a hurry, the two of them soon entered another side tent.
Yelu Siyun lowered the curtain, turned around and said nervously: "Niangniang, isn't your illness already cured, why did you commit it again?" ”
Xiao Xuan didn't speak, only unbuttoned his shirt a little bit, looked inside through the gap and looked inside, and his originally calm expression instantly swelled with melancholy.
"These waste imperial doctors are useless, they should all be killed!"
Xiao Xuan scolded angrily, and in annoyance, he waved his hand and knocked some of the utensils in the tent to the ground.
Empress Xiao was angry, even if it was Yelu Siyun, who was close to herself, her body also shook.
After some anger, Xiao Sui sat down helplessly, and sighed: "I am really ill-fated, how could I suffer from such a strange disease, could it be that I really caused a lot of evil in my previous life, and God let me return to this life." ”
When Xiao Xuan sighed, his face was full of helplessness.
Yelu Siyun seemed to feel the same way, and she also looked sad.
It's just that the sad face suddenly flashed with a hint of excitement.
"Niangniang, I know someone who may be able to cure you of this strange disease." Yelu Siyun blurted out.
Xiao Xuan's lost face suddenly flashed a hint of hope.
She grabbed Yelu Siyun's hand and asked excitedly, "Siyun, do you know what miracle doctors can't do?" ”
Yelu Siyun smiled: "This person has extraordinary medical skills, I think with his ability, he will be able to cure Niangniang's illness." ”
Xiao Sui was overjoyed, and hurriedly asked: "I don't know where this person is now, you come quickly, I will send someone to invite you with a lot of money." ”
Yelu Siyun waved his hand and said, "Where is the need to please, this person is in the tent." ”
Xiao Xuan's face showed suspicion, and he was at a loss for a moment.
Yelu Siyun said: "The person I'm talking about is the Song Dynasty envoy Shi Wei. ”
"Him?"
Xiao Xuan was taken aback.
"It's him, at the beginning, Yelu Gaoba's illness was helpless, even Xiao Manli was helpless, but as soon as Shi Wei made a move, he easily cured Gaoba's illness, and with his magical means, it must be no problem to cure Niangniang's illness."
"Even Xiao Manli is not as good as him?"
Xiao Sui was more and more surprised, she knew that Xiao Siman was a first-class famous doctor in Liao, and Shi Wei's medical skills were much more powerful than Xiao Manli's, how amazing it was.
In Xiao Xuan's eyes, hope suddenly returned.
After a long silence, she whispered a few words to Yelu Siyun.
Yelu Siyun nodded in agreement, turned around and hurried away.
In the big tent at this time, Shi Wei also pretended to be drunk.
As soon as Xiao Xuan left, he felt that there was no need to mess with this group of Liao ministers anymore, so he retreated out of the tent in the name of drunkenness.
Leaving the drunken and smoky tent, it was almost dusk at this time, Shi Wei spit out a few sips of wine, and planned to go back to rest in his own place.
Fang stayed away from the big tent, but Yelu Siyun came out of nowhere, blocking the way.
As soon as he saw her, Shi Wei suddenly remembered the scene when the two of them were naked in the river in the early morning, and ripples suddenly rose in his heart.
On his face, Shi Wei pretended to be fine, and asked with a smile: "The county lord doesn't take care of Niangniang, how can he be here?" ”
"Come with me, I have a very important thing for you to do." Yelu Siyun said very solemnly, turned around and left.
Shi Wei was stunned and asked, "Where to go and what to do?" ”
"Go to my tent, and you'll know when you go." Yelu Siyun didn't look back.
Xiong Qingye next to him immediately showed a strange smile, his strange smile was obviously saying: The county lord invited you to her tent, and said that there is something very important to do, it is so obvious that what else can you do......
