Chapter 170

"See someone?" Shi Wei suddenly became suspicious.

While he was speculating to himself, Yelu Siyun had taken his arm and pulled him out.

Shi Wei wondered, "Where are you going to take me?" ”

"You'll know when you go." Yelu Siyun smiled a little mysteriously.

Shi Wei had already suffocated to death in this county lord's mansion, thinking that anyway, now that he was in a foreign country, he had no choice, so the surname Suo went with her, so it was better to go out to breathe.

So he was suspicious, followed Yelu Siyun out of the county lord's mansion, and rode a carriage to the market.

Shi Wei guessed that the person she wanted to take to see was most likely Xiao Xuan, the empress of Liao.

Now that her father opposes her marrying a Han Chinese, then in this Liao country, in addition to Emperor Liao, only Xiao Xuan is left.

Yelu Siyun has a very good personal relationship with Na Xiao Xuan, and in this case, presumably Yelu Siyun can only ask her for help.

If Xiao Xuan decreed the marriage, then even Yelu Siyun's father would have no reason to oppose it, otherwise it would be disobeying the emperor's order.

Thinking of this, Shi Wei's mood gradually became anxious again.

The carriages and horses traveled through the bustling Youzhou City, but Shi Wei had no intention of watching the customs along the way, and was generally thinking about how to get out of trouble.

Before he knew it, the carriage stopped, and Yelu Siyun pulled him out of the carriage again.

Looking up, Shi Wei was quite surprised.

Because Ye Yun Siyun did not take himself to the palace to meet Xiao Xuan, as he had guessed, but took him to the door of a temple.

Looking up, I saw three big characters written on the plaque at the temple gate - Puji Temple.

Although the Liao State was a foreign regime, the upper class of the Liao State admired the Central Plains culture, and Buddhism was also quite popular in the Liao State.

Shi Wei heard that Naye Luxian and Xiao Sui were both believers in Buddhism, and the Puji Temple in front of him was also built by Xiao Sui with his own private money.

But he didn't understand what it meant for Yelus to bring him here, could it be that he came to take him to worship the Buddha and beg the Buddha to persuade his father to do so?

Even if Shi Weixuan felt that his guess was ridiculous, how could Yelu Siyun be that kind of stupid woman.

"Let's go, let's go in, the guy inside is waiting for us." Yelu Siyun said and pulled Shi Wei in.

As soon as he entered the temple, Shi Wei felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere around him.

There were many pilgrims in the temple at this time, but the strange thing was that those pilgrims were not offering incense, but scattered all over the temple in twos and threes, looking at each other vigilantly, as if they were facing a great enemy.

Moreover, these pilgrims are all tall and large, and they all carry weapons, so they are not ordinary pilgrims at first glance.

Looking at this formation, Shi Wei quickly guessed the ** points.

Yelus led him into a Buddhist hall in the side hall, where she spoke a few words of Khitan to the pilgrim with a knife at the door before she was allowed to enter.

The Buddha hall was empty, and under the huge statue of the Buddha, there was only a woman in gorgeous clothes, who was holding a Buddha bead in her hand, and muttering some Raush scriptures in her mouth.

Although the woman had her back to her, Shi Wei could vaguely recognize who she was.

"Mother, I brought him." Yelu Siyun said with a smile.

The woman stopped chanting, got up from the futon, and turned slowly.

Sure enough, as Shi Wei guessed, the woman in front of him was Xiao Xuan, the queen of Liao.

Although Shi Wei had been prepared, when he really saw Xiao Xuan's beautiful face again, his heart couldn't help but flutter.

Xiao Xuan looked directly at him and said with a smile: "Imperial Doctor Shi, we meet again." ”

Shi Wei calmed his mind and said calmly: "Xiaguan Shi Wei has seen Niangniang, and after a few months, I don't know if Niangniang's illness can be cured?" ”

What Shi Wei mentioned was Xiao Xuan's blood and milk spillage.

"Thanks to Shi Yu's clever recipe, the disease has been cured." When Xiao Xuan spoke, she still looked lukewarm, making it difficult to guess her thoughts.

"Then the lower official congratulated Niangniang, the lower official originally thought that Niangniang had invited the lower official thousands of miles away to give the lower official a follow-up examination, but now that the mother has recovered from her illness, I don't know when she can return to the country."

Shi Wei took the opportunity to submit an invitation to return to China.

Yelu Siyun immediately became anxious, and hurriedly said: "Who said that Niangniang invited you for a follow-up visit, you-"

Yelu Siyun wanted to say more, but waved his hand to Xiao Xuan to stop.

Xiao Sui comforted her: "Siyun, don't be anxious, I have my own opinion about what you think, you go out first, let me say a few words to Imperial Doctor Shi alone." ”

Yelu Siyun glared at Shi Wei a few times, and then retreated outside the Buddha hall.

The door of the hall was closed, and only the two of them were left in the Buddhist hall of Nuoda.

Alone with the first lady of Liao, Shi Wei could faintly feel a sense of oppression quietly permeating.

"Imperial Doctor Shi, why did your Song Kingdom not comply with the agreement and openly annex the Han Kingdom, it is really too indifferent to my Great Liao Kingdom." Xiao Xuan's tone suddenly became solemn.

Shi Wei thought that she would persuade herself and agree to a family affair with Yelu Siyun, but she was questioned about the two countries.

Is she trying to scare me?

Shi Wei was not afraid, and only said lightly: "Niangniang's question, when the lower official first came out as an envoy, he had already given the answer, so why should Niangniang ask again." ”

Xiao Xuanhua was furious, and said sharply: "I have a million male soldiers in Daliao gathered in Nanjing, and with a wave of my hand, the iron horse will go south, and Hebei can be easily leveled, aren't you afraid of the Song Kingdom?" ”

What a big breath.

Shi Wei looked at Xiao Xuan's solemn face, and said lightly: "Your country's iron cavalry is fierce, and the string control of my Great Song Dynasty is not a vegetarian, if Niangniang really has the courage, even if she sends troops south, the lower officials are just bored, and I want to see this excitement." ”

Shi Wei didn't give Xiao Xuan face at all, and used joking words to easily push back Xiao Xuan's threatening words.

Shi Wei, who travels through the flowers, understands the heart of a woman best, and a strong woman like Xiao Xuan who can cover the sky with one hand, groveling or being afraid of pleasing will only make her despised.

This kind of woman who is accustomed to other people's submissiveness, the more you are not afraid of her, the more you dare to contradict her, the more she will look at you differently.

If you say it's good, it's fresh, and if it's ugly, it's called cheap.

The surname is cheap, even the high-ranking Xiao Sui is no exception, Shi Wei is convinced of this.

Sure enough, when Shi Wei collided, Xiao Sui was not angry, but the anger on his face was fading.

Her bloody eyes stared at the young Han official in front of her for a long time, and suddenly she smiled, and Gege laughed loudly.

was solemn before, but now she is smiling so brightly in the blink of an eye, this strong woman changes her face faster than the sky.

Shi Wei sneered in his heart, but said again: "Xiaguan is just a langzhong, and it won't help for Niangniang to say these words to Xiaguan." However, if Niangniang asks the lower official to return to the country, the lower official can convey the Niangniang's questioning to His Majesty. ”

Shi Wei followed Xiao Sui's words and mentioned the matter of returning to the country again.

That Xiao Xuan put away her smiling face, paced in the hall, and asked: "Siyun loves you and wants you to be her county horse, but she has begged the queen for a long time, and since the queen has agreed to her, how can she let you go easily." ”

If this is the case, this Yelu county lord is really persistent, and he did not hesitate to use his relationship with Xiao Xuan for his own sake.

Shi Wei said unhurriedly: "At present, the relationship between Song and Liao is tense, and the clouds of war are thick, in this case, if Niangniang orders to marry the county lord to a captive of the Song State, she will definitely be slandered in the country." The officials privately thought that with the sage of Niangniang, most of them would not make such a decision that was not conducive to the overall situation of the country. ”

Shi Wei had already thought about it all the way around, but in fact, he was not afraid of Yelu Siyun coming to ask for Xiao Xuan.

A hint of surprise flashed in Xiao Xuan's eyes, as if he was a little surprised that Shi Wei could say this.

Shi Wei could see from her fleeting eyes that he had poked her in the sore spot.

"Benhou knew early in the morning that Imperial Doctor Shi was not an ordinary person, and it seems that Benhou really didn't see the wrong person." Xiao Xuan made no secret of his admiration and appreciation for Shi Wei.

Shi Wei said modestly: "Niangniang has won the award, and the lower official just said the truth that everyone can understand." ”

Xiao Xuan sighed: "Imperial Doctor Shi doesn't have to be modest, if everyone understands this truth, Siyun will not make such an inappropriate request to this queen." ”

Xiao Xuan's words secretly blamed Yelu Siyun, but Shi Wei hoped to make a big deal in his heart.

At that moment, he took the opportunity to say: "The lord of Yelu is also very affectionate to the lower officials, so he will do such a thing that is harmful to the national body, and the lower officials are actually very moved in their hearts." It's just that there is a huge difference between my status and that of the county lord, and her kindness is really difficult for the lower officials to bear. ”

Xiao Xuan listened to his words but spoke, and only paced in the hall with his hands in his hands, as if thinking about something.

After a while, she suddenly said: "This queen is also thirsty for talent, Shi Imperial Doctor is so talented, it is really the world, if you can serve my Great Liao Kingdom, you will be able to achieve a career in the future." ”

Xiao Xuan wanted to lure him down.

Regardless of the different races, if Shi Wei is only single, maybe he can really consider accepting Xiao Xuan's good intentions.

It's just that she doesn't know that she still has a large family of beautiful relatives in Bianjing, and if she surrenders to Liao, her family will inevitably be implicated.

No matter what, Shi Wei couldn't ignore them.

Therefore, Xiao Xiao's voice fell, and Shi Wei replied without thinking: "Xiaguan is just a Langzhong, and he has no intention of establishing any meritorious deeds, and the good intentions of Niangniang Xiaguan can only be understood." ”

Rejected by him, Xiao Xuan's expression suddenly became gloomy again, and he said coldly: "Imperial Doctor Shi, you don't want to submit to my Great Liao, and if a virtuous person like you is released to the Song Kingdom, it will inevitably become a disaster for my Great Liao. ”

Murderous, she is threatening her life!

Shi Wei's heart suddenly swelled with a chill, and he thought that if Xiao Xuan really wanted to kill himself, it would not be a gesture.

Just when his mind was in a hurry and he was thinking about how to deal with it, Xiao Xuan in front of him suddenly shook his figure, as if he was about to faint.
