Shen Cha's wind and cold were completely cured after drinking three pairs of medicines, although he still looked a little lazy, but his spirit seemed to be good. It's just that, in order to prevent a possible recurrence, Jin Jing forbade her to go out, forbade her to be too distracted, and told the people around her that there was no particularly important news and not to disturb her rest.

In the past few days before the funeral of King Xianliao, Linhuang Mansion was calm, after all, during the national funeral, places such as the opera garden, the gambling house, and the Qinlou Chu Pavilion were all closed, and those who were full of food and had nothing to do could only wander around in various restaurants, eating, drinking tea, etc., and they couldn't even drink wine, and it was impossible to borrow wine to fight.

Yelu Lan and Ye Lu Nan received the news from the innkeeper and knew that on the night of the palace banquet, Shen Cha fell ill due to the wind and cold, and they were also very anxious, but they really couldn't get out, so they asked Qi Zhifeng to come to visit the patient on their behalf, and by the way, they told Shen Cha the jokes outside.

"In order to relieve my boredom, they asked you to come and talk to me? Aren't you busy? ”

Shen Cha asked Mei Zhu to serve Qi Zhifeng a bowl of smoked bean tea, now few young people like to drink this tea, they are all liked by older people, such as her master and Uncle Yan, but I didn't expect Qi Zhifeng, a young guy, to love it so much, every time he came, he yelled to drink this. This time, she came to the Huang Mansion, and she specially brought two large clay pots of smoked bean tea, along with other gifts, and sent them to the Qi Mansion.

"I'm not busy at all, although I'm with Anan, but some things in the Yelu family, especially the thankless thing like the funeral, I still don't mix. You don't know that there are some people in their family who have no ability to do it, and they are always willing to pick on others. Qi Zhifeng took the bowl of smoked bean tea and took a deep breath, "It's so fragrant!" ”

"Is there anyone else in the Yelu family who opposes you?" Seeing Qi Zhifeng holding the tea bowl with an aggrieved look, Shen Cha sighed, "Nan Gongzi doesn't have anything to say?" ”

"Sister Xiaocha, your mouth grows on other people's bodies, how can Anan take care of it? You can't sew their mouths shut, can you? Qi Zhifeng drank most of the bowl of tea, and nibbled on two pieces of tea made of dim sum, "Don't talk about those bad things, you haven't been out for the past two days, and you don't know what's going on outside, I'll tell you." ”

"Oh? What's the big deal? Who is a demon again? ”

"It's not a big deal!" Qi Zhifeng waved his hand, "It's a joke, you can laugh at Sister Bo Xiaocha." The first joke is contributed by our Tibetan envoys, the post house is on fire, you should know, right? ”

"Yes." Jin Jing nodded, beckoned Mei Zhu to get a charcoal basin over, threw the raw chestnuts sent by the shopkeeper in the morning, and used long fire tongs to pluck the flute back and forth, "It has been rumored outside that it was the Tubo people who set the fire, how did you find conclusive evidence?" ”

"Not yet, but if you look hard, you can still find it. Anan sent people, ostensibly to clean up the mess, but in fact they wanted to find the little handle of the Tubo people, and they themselves knew in their hearts that they had been very honest in the past two days. It's just that the post house burned down, and they had nowhere to stay, so Anan gave them two choices. Qi Zhifeng stretched out two fingers, "The first choice, pay out of your own pocket and rent an inn in Linhuang Mansion to settle down." The second option is that you can camp five miles outside the city, which is where the soldiers and horses from other counties are stationed when they come to Beijing. ”

"The Tubo people will definitely not choose the second one, this is worse than the treatment of the envoys of the Jin State." Shen Cha took two cushions and put them behind him, "However, let them pay their own money, they will definitely not agree." ”

"No, they think this is not polite, where can the envoy pay for his own accommodation." Qi Zhifeng's eyes kept on the charcoal basin, he had never seen roasted chestnuts like this, "However, they didn't protest either, Anan said that he would either pay for it himself or compensate for the loss of the inn." ”

"The Tibetan people are very inward-looking, and they are very strong on the surface, but in fact, their hearts are very empty." Jin Jing sneered, "They are worried that they will really find out what clues, and after weighing the pros and cons, gains and losses, they will also agree to this request." It's just ......" he raised his head to look at Qi Zhifeng, and then at Shen Cha, "It's already torn up, why don't you just leave completely, so as not to suffer this grievance?" ”

"Brother Xiaojing is right, I want to know too." Qi Zhifeng's gaze shifted from roasted chestnuts to Shen Cha, "Why?" ”

"Whether it was rudeness at the palace banquet or arson in the post house, it was the personal behavior of the Tibetan envoys and accompanying warriors, and it was they themselves who wanted to do it, not the intention of the king of Tibet. Think about it, the king of Tubo is so fond of the princess he married, what would he think if he heard that his courtiers were doing mischief in his sweetheart's maiden house and ruining his reputation? What would happen to these people? In addition, if they go back early without waiting for the funeral to end......" Shen Cha showed a faint smile, "They know in their hearts that what awaits them will be dismissed at the least, or they will lose their lives, and they may even implicate their families." To sum up, no matter how reluctant they are, they will stay until the end of the funeral. ”

"I'll just say, they're not the kind of masters who bow down and do little things, and there must be a reason why they can agree to such conditions." Qi Zhifeng nodded, "But people are not as good as heaven, even we didn't expect that all the inns in the city would not agree to the Tubo mission, no matter how high the price they paid, none of them would be willing to accept them." Those innkeepers and shopkeepers were worried that the Tibetan envoys were ruthless people who set fire to the post house, and if they did something inappropriate and angered the Tibetan envoys, maybe the inn they relied on for their survival would be destroyed, and they could not risk their family's livelihood. ”

"Harm others and yourself!" Shen Cha took the medicine bowl handed to her by Mei Zhu, took a deep breath, drank it all, and then returned the medicine bowl to Mei Zhu, rinsed her mouth with white water, and continued, "Rejected by all the inns, they just hit us with the idea, right?" ”

"Sister Xiaocha is wise, that's exactly the case." Qi Zhifeng frowned, seeing that she had drunk all the black medicinal soup, he couldn't help but shudder, "It's just that they just proposed to live under the same roof with the Great Xia Mission, and they were categorically refused." ”

"They're not happy, are they? will say that the Liao people favor one over the other and don't take them seriously. ”

"Not really!" Qi Zhifeng slapped his face, "It's just that the official in charge of receiving them asked them a word, and after asking, they completely dispelled this idea and obediently went to camp outside the city." ”

"Oh?" Smelling the fragrance of chestnuts, Jin Jing carefully picked one up and put it on a plate to cool, "What words are so useful?" ”

He asked the Tibetan envoy if he really wanted to live in the same inn as the Great Xia Mission? I heard that General Zhenguo practiced martial arts every day, are you really not worried that you will be sent to the door and beaten up? Really not worried about whether I can leave Linhuang Mansion with all my beards and tails? Qi Zhifeng smiled evilly at Shen Cha, "Sister Xiaocha, is this what the art of war says, a soldier who surrenders without a fight?" ”

“……”

After listening to Qi Zhifeng's words, Shen Cha didn't know whether she should laugh or cry, it turned out that she was such an image in the hearts of this group of people!
