"Han Xianggong!" At this time, the decrepit old man sitting next to Xiao Puxian interrupted Han Xiaoxuan's speech, seeing that this person was nearly sixty years old, compared with Xiao Puxian on the side, it was really red and white-haired, which made Zhou Ping quite surprised in his heart, he also thought that Xiao Puxian was Ye Luchun's wife, and the two should be the same age, but he didn't want Ye Luchun to be an old man who was nearly sixty years old.

"Today, I have heard the wonderful law, it is really a blessing for three lives, but Xiao Wang is uncertain these days, and he is full of troubles, that is, he will be forced to remove himself, and he will be resurrected after a while, dare to ask Mr. for advice?" Looking closely, although this Yeluchun is extremely rich, his eyebrows are full of sorrow, obviously worried about state affairs.

"I have occasionally gained from reading the Bible on weekdays, how dare I be Mr.!" Han Xiaoxuan smiled and said: "But Xiao Sheng thinks that the troubles of the King of Qin and Jin should be sought from the word 'none'?" ”

"None?"

"Yes, the king of Qin Jin has seen the newborn baby, but is there any trouble?"

Yeluchun was stunned and said: "Newborn babies are ignorant and ignorant, so naturally they have no troubles. ”

"That's it, King Qin and Jin, you are on the throne, in your hands, and you are extremely rich, except for the Son of Heaven of your country, I am afraid that there is no one in this vast territory who is more 'having' than you, in this case, no matter how much you chant the scriptures and chant the Buddha, burn incense and practice, I am afraid that you will not be able to go to all the troubles! I wonder if what the foreign minister said is right? ”

When Ye Luchun heard this, he couldn't help but be dumbfounded, indeed, as Han Xiaoxuan said, if he was an ordinary family, he could take his family to the Song Kingdom and leave the mansion of Daliao to start over; But as a member of the Great Liao Imperial Family, at this time of crisis, how could he abandon the Zongmiao Society and escape alone? Even though he knew that there was a big fire pit in front of him, he could only jump down with his eyes open.

Ye Luchun stood up and saluted Han Xiaoxuan: "The old man is nearly sixty years old, like a dead forest and rotten branches, and he will break every day. Mr. Wonderful Theory, it is already useless! ”

Han Xiaoxuan hurriedly got up and got out of the way, not daring to accept Ye Luchun's courtesy, and said with a smile: "The king of Qin and Jin is the share of the country, and the foreign ministers only have admiration!" ”

Ye Luchun sighed, didn't say much, stretched out his right hand, Xiao Puxian on the side hurriedly stretched out his hand to support, and the two walked outside, Zhou Ping saw clearly, that Ye Luchun had a golden face, his fingertips trembled slightly, and he was depressed, as if he was about to die, which formed a sharp contrast with Xiao Puxian on the side.

After Ye Luchun and his wife left, the rest of the Liao ministers also resigned, and only the people of the Great Song Mission were left in the house. Zhou Ping stepped forward and said with a smile: "Xianggong folded the Liao chieftain Qin and Jin kings with a piece of words, which is rare in ancient and modern times, and the villain admires it!" ”

"That's it, I've made the stakes clear, and it's up to them whether they can get into the ears of their peers!" Han Xiaoxuan took two sips of the drink, walked to the Hu bed and sat down, and said with a smile: "Ah Ping, how many days do you have to go?" ”

"Xianggong, please take a look!" Zhou Ping took out the map he had written down today from his arms and presented it. Han Xiaoxuan took it and looked at it carefully, his face couldn't help but move slightly, and he praised: "Good, good!" These and Zhang Guanyu alone are not in vain, that and Xian also said that he wanted to cut down Yan in the morning, and he also said that he wanted to cut down Yan in the evening, and he also presented a "Collecting Yan Mountain Map" to go up, deceiving the sacred heart, how to get up to Aping You painted this map, you are so good to do, this official will not bury your credit! ”

"Thank you for cultivating Xianggong!" Zhou Ping bowed and bowed, and said in a deep voice: "If it is an outer city, it will take about two or three days, and it is inconvenient to enter and exit the inner city, so it will not be able to be painted." ”

"Good, good!" Han Xiaoxuan smiled and said: "Ah Ping, you are also confused, if the army enters the outer city, the inner city will naturally collapse, are you afraid that they will not succeed?" ”

"The villain is confused, thanks to the reminder!"

"Hmm!" Han Xiaoxuan nodded hesitantly, as if this Youzhou City had already stepped under his feet: "Then I'll talk about the Buddha here for a few more days!"

Four days later, when Zhou Ping completed the last part of the map, Han Xiaoxuan led the delegation on the way home. Although the mission of the mission was not completed on the surface, and the Song party's request was rejected by the Liao, who agreed to reduce the annual tribute of 500,000 silver silk to half, it was absolutely unwilling to back down on the land returned to the sixteen states of Yanyun. However, the departure of the Song delegation was quite a grand farewell, and the upper class of Youzhou sent Han Xiaoxuan across Lugou with an almost reluctant attitude, and Ye Luchun, the king of the Qin and Jin dynasties left behind in Nanjing, although he was sick in bed, still sent his son to bid farewell on his behalf, and also sent a very generous Cheng Yi. In this way, the mission embarked on its homecoming, and everyone was full of hope for the future.

Due to the fact that the spring snow melted and the water washed away the road, the mission returned and took another road and would not pass through Xincheng again, which also made Zhou Ping breathe a sigh of relief, and he didn't have to worry about Ye Lu Yuncheng, who had paid a lot of money, mentioning this matter to Han Xiaoxuan and causing trouble. Seeing that as the road went south, the snow on the side of the road was getting thinner, and it was getting closer and closer to the Song realm, thinking of the expectations of the family and the reward of the imperial court, the mood of the people in the mission became more and more cheerful.

"The white horse is decorated with golden fetters, and it gallops northwest. By asking who the son is, he is a ranger. When I was young, I went to the countryside and raised my voice in the desert. In the past, Bingliang bowed, and the arrow was uneven. The control string breaks the left, and the right one destroys the moon branch. Raise your hand to catch the flyer, lean over and scatter the horse's hooves......"

The most proud is Xue Liangyu, I saw him sitting on horseback, chanting loudly Cao Zhi's "White Horse Chapter" that Zhou Ping had just taught him two days ago, perhaps the image depicted in this Yuefu poem is closest to his vision, this seventeen-year-old boy will memorize and recite as long as he has nothing to do, but he can recite it in a day's work. Zhou Ping, who was leaning against the wall of the car, looked at the young man's riding shadow with a smile like a tolerant brother.

"Woo——!"

Suddenly, there was a long horn sound in front of them, and the members of the mission immediately became nervous, which meant that the sentry at the front of the group had noticed something unusual. Zhou Ping jumped out of the carriage and watched the escorted Khitan cavalry line up in battle formation under the command of the captain, and after a while, a horse rushed from the front, shouting something loudly in Khitan language, Zhou Ping immediately felt that the atmosphere relaxed.

"There are a lot of corpses in front, it should have just been a battle!" Wen Cheng's voice came from behind, and Zhou Ping turned his head, only to see the other party's face solemn.

"It seems that the situation is getting more and more serious, there is a war here so close to the Song Realm, hey, how sad the people's livelihood is!"

Zhou Ping didn't speak, just nodded silently. He walked to the side of the mount, jumped on the war horse, and whipped the horse's stock, and galloped forward, Xue Liangyu was stunned, and quickly hit the horse to follow.

"It shouldn't have been dead for long, and the corpses haven't decomposed!" Xue Liangyu said in a low voice. Forty or fifty corpses lay in the open space on the right side of the road, and the cold wind of the swallow ground turned the skin of the dead into a disgusting iron blue. Flocks of crows are circling over carcasses pecking, and for these scavenging birds, human cannibalism has provided them with abundant food.

"These should be Han'er's rebels or thieves, who were defeated by the Liao cavalry." Xue Liangyu pulled out a feather arrow from the corpse and handed it to Zhou Ping. Pointing to the snow trampled by horses' hooves around him and the horses' hoof prints and corpses stretching westward, he continued: "The thieves met the Khitan cavalry here, they were besieged by the cavalry, and the resistance was quickly routed, and then they followed in pursuit. There shouldn't be a few live mouths! ”

Zhou Ping didn't answer, he threw the arrow aside and walked to the pile of corpses, these corpses were very dense, and the wounds were basically on the chest, obviously they were killed in a desperate battle, and there were several people wearing leather armor, who should be the leader.

"Liangyu, these people are not simple! The leaders didn't flee first! Zhou Ping whispered to Xue Liangyu.

"Hmm!" Xue Liangyu nodded, compared to those bandits in the Song territory, this group of dead people undoubtedly had a much stronger will to fight before their deaths. The two of them were about to leave, when there was a groan in the wind, Zhou Ping was stunned, his eyes turned to Xue Liangyu, and he found that the other party also looked different, so he was sure that it was not his auditory hallucination.

"Anyone else alive?" Zhou Ping jumped off his horse and walked towards the pile of corpses, when a second groan came. This time Zhou Ping was even more sure, he quickly ran to the source of the sound, opened the two corpses, and revealed a half-grown child who was at most fourteen or fifteen years old, trying to pull his right leg out from under the corpse of a horse.

"Liangyu, come and help!" Zhou Ping shouted, and the two worked together to lift the horse's leg slightly, and the young man took the opportunity to pull his leg out. Zhou Ping carefully pinched his leg a few times, but the young man also knew what was going on, knowing that the other party was checking for himself, so he held back the pain and didn't scream.

"The bones should be fine!" After confirming it, Zhou Ping helped the young man up, looked the other party up and down for a while, and had to admit that this young man's luck was very good, after such a life and death disaster, he was actually normal except for a few contusions and sprains.

"What to do with this kid?" Xue Liangyu asked.

"Take it and let the prime minister take a look, and then decide how to deal with it!" Zhou Ping handed the wine bag around his waist to the young man, let him take two sips, and carried him on the horse.

In the carriage, Han Xiaoxuan looked the young man up and down, and after a while, asked, "Do you understand what I say?" ”

"I'm also a Han'er, so I naturally understand!" The boy's tone was a little strange, but it was indeed Chinese. He looked at Han Xiaoxuan's dress for a while, and suddenly asked, "Are you officials of the Song Kingdom?" ”

"Yes, how do you know?"

"My father said that the Han official robe is like this, but I haven't seen it with my own eyes." The boy bowed his head as he said this, apparently remembering what had happened to his father.

"And where are you from? What is your name? How can it be besieged? ”

"I am a native of Liaodong, my surname is Luo, and everyone else calls me Luo She'er, and the Liao people in my hometown are at war with the Jin people, and the villagers can only flee to Yandi." Speaking of this, the young man suddenly gritted his teeth and scolded: "The Khitan dog uses us to wait for Valizhou, but it is not with food and clothing, it is clearly to borrow a knife to kill people, and kill my resentful army brothers!" "Pay attention.,I've been rewarding a few book friends such as 'dadadadadada'", 'marsken', 'yxonline', etc., how to say, as an author, of course, I hope to reward as much money as possible, but if the total amount of the reward is certain, I prefer to be more dispersed, rather than just a dozen or so people. This will make me feel that more people are supporting me with practical actions!
