Chapter 216: Sharp

He said this impassionedly, righteously, although there is nothing new, but with his impassioned expression, it is still quite convincing. But he didn't notice a very important question: Ouyang Shu is not a court official, why did he come to the court today?

Zhao Xu nodded, and he couldn't see any mood fluctuations in his face. Lu Yihao was not a little disappointed now, but very disappointed. Originally, Zhao Xu has always been an easily emotional person, if he is not angry about something, it means that he does not care about it.

Li Aiqing, since Lu Aiqing impeached you, you should come out and defend yourself!

Ouyang Shu hurriedly stepped out and said: Your Majesty, since this matter was born between the minister and the deputy envoy of the Liao State, and the deputy envoy of the Liao State happened to come to meet him, the minister was willing to confront him face to face, so it would be better to explain it more clearly than the minister talking to himself here alone!

When Lu Yihao heard that Ouyang Shu seemed to be confident, he was not afraid to confront Xiao Ningnu in the palace, and he couldn't help but wonder in his heart: Is there really no ghost in his heart?

Zhao Xu said with a smile: Very good, Aiqing has such an idea, but it is in my heart. Since this matter involves the conflict between the ministers of Song and Liao, it is time to provide sufficient opportunities for both sides to speak. If I only listen to the words of one family, I will inevitably listen to and believe partially, and I will not take it.

The ministers, whether they wanted Ouyang Shu to be exonerated or those who wanted Ouyang Shu to be convicted, all nodded one after another.

Not long after, a shrill shout came from outside the hall: His Royal Highness Yelu Yanxi, the envoy of the Liao State and the grandson of the Great Liao Emperor, and Xiao Ningnu, the deputy envoy of the Liao State, have arrived!

As soon as the words fell, I saw several people hurriedly walking in.

This Yelu Yanxi's name was widely spread in the Great Song Dynasty, and although it was notorious, it was also well known. And these civil and military officials in the hall have long been friends with Yelu Yanxi, and they all want to meet each other to see what this famous figure in Kyushu looks like.

The host and guest Lang were originally going to promote the drive, and it stands to reason that he, as the master, should lead the way in front. But in fact, it was Yelu Yanxi who was walking in front, Xiao Ningnu was following closely behind him, and the main and guest Langzhong could only chase after the two of them panting.

The ministers were a little amused when they saw the appearance of these three people, but when they saw the appearance of Yelu Yanxi clearly, they didn't think it was funny. This Yelu Yanxi is very tall, six feet tall, not only tall, but also a little fat, giving people the impression that this person is one size bigger than everyone in the temple, and he seems to be another breed of human.

What's even more amazing is that his eyes are extremely sharp and gloomy, Xiao Ningnu's eyes are sharp enough, but his eyes are much sharper than Xiao Ningnu, although he hasn't spoken yet, but the horizontal flesh on his face shakes gently, which is a little terrifying.

Coming to the bottom of the Majesty's steps, Xiao Ningnu bowed deeply to Zhao Xu. Yelu Yanxi also stopped suddenly, but pointed at Zhao Xu and said: You are Zhao Xu, the emperor of the Great Song Kingdom?

There was a sudden silence in the hall, and the ministers all looked at Yelu Yanxi with fear. I had heard that this person was rude, and I didn't want to see it at first sight, which was much more rude than I imagined. The emperor's name cannot be mentioned casually, it is a taboo. Of course, everyone knows this in the Great Song Dynasty, and it is the same in the Liao State, which has a high degree of sinicization. Even if Yelu Yanxi is very stupid, he shouldn't be unaware of this. If he was really an idiot, there would be no way that Yelu Hongji would have made him a prince. In other words, he said this on purpose, deliberately provoking Zhao Xu and provoking Song Ting!

This time, Zhao Xu showed unprecedented self-cultivation, instead of being angry, he nodded gently, and said: Exactly, you are the imperial grandson of Da Liao, His Royal Highness Yelu, right?

Yelu Yanxi snorted unceremoniously and said, "Why does Your Majesty ask knowingly? If I am not Yelu Yanxi, how can I stand on top of this hall and talk to Your Majesty face to face?"

Zhao Xu nodded and said: Your Royal Highness's British name, I have admired it for a long time!

Yelu Yanxi didn't appreciate it, and waved his hand, which was much thicker than ordinary people, and said: Your Majesty doesn't need to say such polite words. I think there should be no one in this hall who hasn't heard of me, but I'm afraid there is no one who really likes me, right?

Everyone was amazed, and they couldn't imagine that Yelu Yanxi, a barbarian, was also a little self-aware. The night has long since begun, and everyone who should have slept has already slept. Ouyang Shu stayed in Hu Qing'er's room tonight.

In the Li family, it is naturally impossible for him and Fan Hu's second daughter to sleep together every day, and on the wedding day, they can keep their subordinates away from this area, but they can't not let their subordinates serve them every day. Although Ouyang Shu and the second daughter can take care of themselves, this is a matter of decency for large families, if the young master and the two young ladies don't serve others, the people will inevitably be afraid, which will cause bigger problems.

However, now Ouyang Shu only has two wives, and no one suffers in Fan Hu's second daughter's room.

If Fan Xiaolu saw Ouyang Shu sitting stunned all the time, but he didn't sleep, he would have gone to pull him to sleep, but Hu Qing'er didn't dare, as long as he sat there stupidly with him. In fact, Hu Qing'er still had something to ask in her heart at this time, but she was afraid that Ouyang Shu would be angry, so she kept it in her throat and didn't say it. What she wanted to ask was about Yu Manfen. She knew that Yu Manfen was the woman Ouyang Shu had taken a leave of absence before, so she wanted to know about Yu Manfen. Of course, this has nothing to do with jealousy or other negative emotions, since that woman was divorced by Ouyang Shu, it is naturally impossible for Hu Qing'er to be jealous of her, she just wants to know more about Ouyang Shu's past.

However, today Ouyang Shu is restless, and he is not a dull person on weekdays, at least not in front of people close to Hu Qing'er and Fan Xiaolu. But today, Ouyang Shu didn't speak, and seemed to be very thoughtful. Fan Xiaolu didn't dare to disturb him thinking about things, so she had to help him make tea and sit beside him to accompany him.

Suddenly, Ouyang Shu raised his head, looked at the sky, and said, "It's not early, you can rest first!"

Hu Qing'er asked cautiously: What about you?

Ouyang Shu said with a smile: You Ah Weng just asked me to go over at night to discuss with him about the itinerary to Beijing and other things. He said, the weather is getting hotter, the night is cool, and it's time to talk about business! You, I've told you a few times, but you don't want to take the lead in resting!

Of course, Hu Qing'er understood that what Ouyang Shu wanted to talk about with Li Gu was not necessarily about the itinerary, and she even sensitively felt that the content of this conversation should be related to Yu Manfen. However, she pretended to know nothing, nodded, and said, "Okay, you go early and come back early."

Ouyang Shu walked out of the room and went straight to Li Gu's study.

Seeing that there was a light coming from Li Gu's study, Ouyang Shu was not polite, and pushed the door straight in.

Li Gu was sitting on a chair inside at this time. There is no one waiting for him, which is not surprising, because his pure heart and few desires are clear to everyone, and if he can do such small things as making tea and fanning fans on weekdays, if he can do it himself, he rarely pretends to others. So, it's not surprising that he's sitting alone in his study.

After Ouyang Shu closed the door of the study, Li Yu pointed to the inner room of the study. This small inner room was originally used for Li Gu's rest, and the place is narrow, but all the living utensils are very complete. The main thing is that this place is very secretive, in this, as long as it is not loud and noisy, even the people in the study are difficult to hear, and this sound is transmitted outside the study, it is like a breeze, falling leaves hit the ground, and it is difficult for non-martial arts masters to perceive it. So, it's really a good place to be a secret agent.

Ouyang Shu nodded and walked in. Li Gu was still sitting there, his eyes narrowed into a slit, as if he was napping. However, one of his ears was erect high, and the eyeballs in the slit kept turning back and forth. Since he was facing the window, the slightest disturbance outside could not escape his ears and eyes.

Ouyang Shu walked into the door of the inner room, and at a glance saw a familiar figure, it was none other than the smokeless Zen master, oh, according to his current outfit, it should be Yu Mude's remaining outside.
