Chapter 367: Xiao Clan's Request (I)
The camp arranged by Jieli for the Tang Dynasty mission was located on the right side of the Great Tent of the Khan, more than 200 meters away from the Great Tent.
It is a small separate campsite with a fence fence.
The mission was busy and settled. Wen Yanbo invited Xiao Shi and Zhao Deyan into the camp to talk, accompanied by Zhao Yunze.
Although it was a camp for the mission, the tent was very simple. There is almost no furniture, just some upholstered animal skins and other sitting and sleeping tools. The only furniture is a low table and a few wooden cabinets.
The four of them sat down around the low table. On the low table, there is a tea set. The style of the tea set is Datang's at first glance. The teapot is placed in a low corner, and the charcoal fire of the small teapot below flickers on and off, and the teapot is steaming. It turned out that the tea had already been boiled and only burned with charcoal. The two maids brought by Xiao Shi served tea for everyone.
"Two distinguished guests, please have tea." Xiao Shirou stretched out and gestured to Wen Yanbo and Zhao Yunze.
"Thank you for your hospitality, two of you, please" Wen Yanbo bowed his hand slightly and picked up the teacup.
Zhao Yunze also took a sip of the teacup, and a fishy breath suddenly overflowed his mouth, making him want to vomit. It turns out that this tea is goat's milk tea. The Turkic people drank tea on weekdays, and they all boiled tea with mare's milk, and goat's milk tea was only used for entertainers and nobles. But Zhao Yunze obviously didn't appreciate the hospitality of the Turks. After only one sip, he didn't want to take a second sip.
The four of them took a sip of tea, and after putting down the teacup, Xiao said: "The desert is not as simple as the Central Plains, everything is very simple, please bear with the two distinguished guests." ”
Wen Yanbo just wanted to say a few polite words, but Zhao Yunze spoke up first: "It's very simple." Ke Dun and Zhao Taishi are both from the Central Plains, I don't know if they are still used to being here in the past few years."
After asking this sentence, Zhao Yunze himself regretted it. These words seem to be full of irony, and they are nothing to say to Zhao Deyan, but Empress Xiao is not willing to come to Turkic.
Sure enough, as soon as she heard Zhao Yunze's words, Empress Xiao blushed.
Zhao Deyan smiled coldly and said: "A manly man dominates the world, where is not a home, and where can he not get used to it"
"Grandson is really arrogant, I have a big rise in my Zhao family's style, I am a grandfather, I am very pleased" Zhao Yunze gave a thumbs up and smiled at Zhao Deyan.
"Uh" Zhao Deyan was choked again. There's no way, Zhao Yunze's seniority is there, and he really can't be annoyed if he calls him "grandson". Who asked him to take the initiative to talk to Zhao Yunze before, saying that both of them are surnamed Zhao, so they should be closer and closer. Now it's close enough, and I'm a grandson.
Xiao Shi was stunned for a moment, and asked curiously: "Deputy Envoy Zhao and Master Zhao, how do you talk about this generation?"
"Well, that's what it's all about."
Zhao Yunze smiled and just wanted to explain, but Zhao Deyan couldn't sit still, he quickly interrupted Zhao Yunze's words and said: "Ke Dun and the two Tang envoys talked, there are still a lot of affairs to deal with, so I will be lost first." ”
"Grandson, take care of yourself. My Zhao family has a rare child and grandson who ranks among the third divisions, you must do things well. Zhao Yunze didn't let go of Zhao Deyan, and told him seriously.
Zhao Deyan left the tent in shame and anger.
As soon as Zhao Deyan left, Xiao Shi no longer asked Zhao Yunze and Zhao Deyan how they discussed the seniority, her face suddenly sank, and she whispered directly to Wen Yanbo: "Master Wen, you and the old body can be regarded as old acquaintances."
Old body, she is in her sixties, and the self-proclaimed "old body" is completely in the past. But looking at her still young appearance, how can this self-proclaimed feel so awkward Zhao Yunze thought secretly in his heart.
Wen Yanbo bowed his hand to Xiao Shi and said, "When something happened before, I did meet Niangniang a few times. ”
When Wen Yanbo was in the Sui Dynasty, he went to Sima in Youzhou, and it was normal to see Empress Xiao.
Hearing that Wen Yanbo had changed his title, Xiao sighed and said, "The old body is now a wanderer in a foreign land, and Lord Wen should not use the title of Niangniang anymore." ”
After speaking, without waiting for Wen Yanbo to say anything more, Xiao Shi said again: "Lord Wen, the old body has something to ask for, I don't know if you can agree."
Wen Yanbo was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Let's talk about what it is, if you have the ability, you can't blame yourself." ”
Xiao Shi stood up suddenly, bowed to Wen Yan Bofu, and said, "Ask Lord Wen to save the old man from the sea of suffering."
Hearing Xiao's words, Wen Yanbo and Zhao Yunze were shocked and stood up suddenly. To save her from the sea of suffering, it is that she wants to leave the Turks
Zhao Yunze hurriedly walked to the door of the tent to see if there were any Turks outside the door. Such a big thing, whether Wen Yanbo will not agree to it, cannot be listened to by the Turks.
Wen Yanbo said to Xiao Shi at a loss: "Niangniang, please get up quickly, it's a shame."
"If Lord Wen doesn't agree, the old body won't get up." The Xiao family seems to be suspected of relying on the old man to sell the old man.
"Niangniang, you get up first, this matter needs to be discussed in the long run," Wen Yanbo said again.
Only then did Xiao get up.
Zhao Yunze saw that there were no Turks outside, and he was also relieved. He glanced back at Wen Yanbo and saw that Wen Yanbo looked embarrassed.
At this time, one of the two female slaves who followed Xiao to the tent walked up to Zhao Yunze and smiled at him: "My lord, come and see the slave." ”
As soon as Zhao Yunze heard the slave girl's fluent Chinese, he immediately understood. The two female slaves brought into the tent by the Xiao family were from the Central Plains. must also be Xiao Shi's trusted person, otherwise Xiao Shi would not dare to ask Wen Yanbo for help in front of them.
Zhao Yunze nodded at the slave girl and sat back down.
At this time, Xiao Shi and Wen Yanbo sat down again. Wen Yanbo asked Xiao Shi: "Does Niangniang want to go back to Middle-earth?"
Xiao Shi sighed and said, "I am originally from Middle Earth, and now that the Tang Dynasty has been peaceful, my younger brother Xiao Yu is also a Tang Chen. His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty will not be disgusted with me, the former Empress of Sui, and will not give me a place to live. ”
Wen Yanbo said: "Your Majesty is tolerant and will not be disgusted with her mother." However, as far as a certain person knows, Niangniang now lives in Dingxiang with the prince of Zhengdao. Can the mother be willing to let go of her grandchildren?"
Xiao Shi sighed, suddenly blushed again, and said, "If the old body only lives in Dingxiang and lives with Zhengdao, he will not have the heart to return to Middle-earth. But Najieli Khan is a demon in the color. Although the old body is old and decrepit, Najieli sends people from time to time to take the old body from Dingxiang to the old body of Yinshan, which is really suffering. I don't want to live like this anymore. ”
Though you are old, you are not faint. Otherwise, how could Jieli be so anxious, Zhao Yunze slandered the Xiao family. But he immediately quickly dispelled the obscene thoughts in his mind. Facing the old goddess of the Xiao family, Zhao Yunze couldn't bear to blaspheme. A person's temperament is really subtle.
