Chapter 225: It's actually Mr. Hanlin
The Dabei clan has changed its leader like this, not to mention, in the future development, it will definitely be better than the current situation. Qiu Ye had a hunch that if he didn't negotiate well this time, there would definitely be a battle in the future. They are either allies or enemies.
"Not to be underestimated." Gu Lin said lightly.
"Well, bring them in first, and we'll give them a feast tonight." Qiu Ye thought for a moment and then made a decision.
Xia Ting also agreed: "Yes, it's easy to talk about things at the dinner table." "Eat and drink well, be in a good mood, and be vigilant is the lowest time.
"Well, that's decided. On our side, I, Ah Ting, Gu Lin and you are all present, and Si Zhan and Gu Yu are in charge of guarding the guards, beware of their tricks. Qiu Ye further explained.
The children's personal affairs will be put aside for the time being, and the next negotiations will determine whether they will fight in the future, and they can also probe the tone of the Dabei clan, after all, it is the only foreign clan that can threaten the Great Apocalypse.
Xia Ting had to attend the banquet tonight, her identity destined her to be there, and her state must be good.
Xia Ting thought about it and took the last painkiller pill.
Not to mention, Ye Lao is still Ye Lao, every time she takes the medicine, the pain is relieved a lot, and the wound will also be relieved. This painkiller is probably more than just a painkiller. Xia Ting re-bandaged the medicine, and now she picked it up, her uncle and eldest brother both brought her the medicine, she didn't have to save it, she kept her body refreshed, and it was more comfortable than before.
There was still some time before the dinner, Xia Ting was resting alone in the room, she touched the bracelet and tried to call the system, but there was still no response.
"Are you gone, or what's wrong? It came strangely, disappeared suddenly, and didn't explain a word. Xia Ting muttered to himself. This system is not reliable at all, the task is triggered suddenly, and she can never find a routine. But in any case, it did rescue itself many times when it needed help. She doesn't rely on it, but she treats it as her little friend in the long-term companionship.
The system suddenly disappeared, and Xia Ting was still a little stunned in his heart.
"Sure enough, you're hurt." When Xia Ting opened the door, Qiu Yi stood at the door and said coolly.
Because they had just entered the palace, Qiu Ye also knew that she didn't like to be disturbed by many people, so she was also taken care of by Qiu Yi's side.
Xia Ting smiled: "Hmm." I have been hiding it for a long time, I am afraid that you will be worried, and I am afraid that you will be difficult to tell Qiuye, so even you will hide it together. Not for the purpose of the meaning, you don't have to be sad. ”
Qiu Yi shook his head: "You should tell me, I will take care of you." ”
Xia Ting shook his head firmly, kicked up two fingers, and said, "First of all, you will tell Qiu Ye the news. Second, I can take care of myself for such a small matter. And you, have done a lot for me. ”
Qiuyi's eyes were difficult to understand, and it took a long time to hold back a sentence, as if relieved: "You are different from many people." I'll protect you tonight. Qiu Yi was thinking, Xia Ting's suspicious signs before, he didn't tell his master, he had been observing. If she knew exactly about Xia Ting's situation, she should have told her master. Therefore, when Xia Ting said it so firmly, Qiu Yi was still surprised, she understood herself.
Inevitably, Xia Ting should dress up to attend, wear a phoenix crown weighing thousands of catties, obliquely insert a jasper dragon and phoenix hairpin, put on a gold hundred phoenix shawl tassels, and add a red robe, with a little powder.
Look at your new look from the bronze mirror, huh...... Very mature and dignified, it is the queen's formal dress style.
"Ah, the way I should have been when I was young has been obscured." Xia Ting looked left and right at his dress, and sighed.
Qiu Yi calmly sorted out the ornaments and shot back: "Won't you break the credit if you speak?" ”
Xia Ting's swaying movements froze, feeling offended. Hey, Qiuyi people don't talk much, the kind that pierces the heart when a sentence comes out. Is this a compliment?
didn't wait long, Qiu Ye came over to pick her up in full costume, surrounded by various people behind her.
I saw amazement in each other's eyes. But thinking that she was about to leave, Qiu Ye put aside his face, he wanted to show his attitude from now on.
"Let's go, Queen."
Xia Ting adjusted his expression slightly and walked to Qiu Ye's side. How could it be said that she was not nervous, it was the first time she faced a big scene. It's still such a special and important identity.
"Don't worry, just talk about the scene and maintain etiquette when the time comes." They sat together, and the people next to them kept making small movements, Qiu Ye looked at the front and felt her uneasiness, and after thinking about it for a long time, she still opened her mouth to comfort.
"Uh-huh." Xia Ting replied randomly, she was already thinking about how to deal with the tricky questions that might arise in her autosuggestion. However, she probably only needs to be a vase, "yes, I'll be a vase." Then he sat upright, looking ahead, and at first glance, he was quite stylish.
Qiu Ye smiled helplessly.
The pomp was very large, she and Qiu Ye were the last to appear, there were many palace maids and slaves, as well as cronies and representatives of the Dabei clan who had already sat down, and the eyes of the audience were watching them. The feeling of being bowed down to, Xia Ting felt very strange, on the one hand, there was an impulse to make them hurry up and be ashamed, on the other hand, there was really a sense of expansion. At this moment, she could understand why so many people had sought this position through the ages, despite the thorns, red blood, and intrigue of the road.
Not to mention, Xia Ting's pretending appearance is really imposing, and he can deceive many people.
Except for the polite words at the beginning, Xia Ting is well protected, she only needs to eat, of course, she can't eat too much, that etiquette has to be maintained. Moreover, eating with a posture is really not fun.
Those men had already mingled and talked. After her stomach was a little at the bottom, she raised her eyes to look at the ambassadors of the Dabei clan.
The appearance is no different from them, the only difference is that their costumes are very ethnic minority style, and they are indeed the same as their perception in the outside world, very mysterious.
Those who sat on the right hand side were all on their side, and the messengers of the Dabei tribe sat on the left hand side.
Xia Ting was quietly looking at them, she thought she was hiding well, but she didn't know that someone was observing her from the beginning.
So, when they looked at each other, Xia Ting was taken aback, old acquaintance! No, it should be a familiar stranger.
The other party's eyes were overflowing with smiles, and he nodded at her.
"What's wrong?" While dealing with other people, Qiu Ye also left a distraction on Xia Ting. He was the closest, and naturally felt the instantaneous change in her.
Xia Ting adjusted his state and said honestly: "There is a person in their Dabei clan, look, it is that very elegant man, I have seen him, and I have a relationship with him. ”
Qiu Ye took a sip of wine from his wine glass, hid his thinking eyes, and asked in a low voice, "Tell me?" ”
Xia Ting shifted his gaze, no longer looked at the man, and said as concisely as possible: "Do you remember what I said at the time that Xiao Teng tracked the Dabei clan, and the people who disappeared when they chased to Chunjiang Town?" I suspect it's him. At the beginning, it was the second brother who reached an agreement with him, and he hid in the second brother's place. His name is Mr. Hanlin, and there is indeed a practice of Gu witchcraft. ”
The most important thing is that Xiao Teng said that the person he tracked down was higher than his mother's power.
So Mr. Hanlin's identity is indeed not simple, and being able to come here just shows this.
"He is equivalent to the master of the Dabei clan, and he can speak in the Dabei clan with positions such as military advisors. How is this person? Qiu Ye is assessing whether Mr. Hanlin will be an entry point for this negotiation.
"I can't see through it." Xia Ting commented. What she didn't say was that she still owed Mr. Hanlin a request. I hope that the other party has forgotten, then she will have one less trouble.
Qiu Ye raised his glass and said in a loud voice: "There are friends from afar." Daqi and Dabei people have been close for generations, and they all say that the neighborhood is harmonious, and I hope that this time, Daqi and Dabei people can turn hostility into jade silk and rebuild the good neighborhood. ”
Xia Ting came back to her senses, everyone had already raised their glasses, she hurriedly raised them too, put on a generous smile, and looked at the people of the Dabei clan, just skipped Mr. Han Lin.
She instinctively had a sense of awe for Mr. Hanlin. It's like how students feel the same way when they face their teachers.
Everyone raised their glasses and drank them in one gulp, and Xia Ting took a sip. Yu Guang suddenly swept to a servant girl carrying a tea tray to the envoy of the Dabei tribe, walking in a hurry, with a hint of nervousness and anxiety, and a feeling of being ready to go.
Before Xia Ting could react, she saw her revealing the bayonet in her sleeve, she didn't have time to think about it, and hurriedly said, "Protect the messenger!" ”
She wanted to take out the little bow and crossbow to stop it, but she remembered that she had put down the dagger and the little bow and crossbow because she had changed into a formal suit.
In desperation, Xia Ting suddenly ripped off the jade pendant and threw it at the dagger aimed at the assassination.
After doing this, she was firmly protected by Qiu Ye in her arms and retreated behind the guards who came to protect her. Qiu Yi has also been by her side, paying close attention.
"Autumn Mood, go protect the messenger!"
What Xia Ting is worried about now is the safety of the envoys, not because of how strong their feelings are, it's just that once something goes wrong with them at this time, there is no possibility of reconciliation between the two countries.
When something happened at the door of their own house, they couldn't argue.
She looked at the eldest brother's location again and saw that there was no one left. There was a lot of chaos on the field, and it was clear that it was an organized assassination attempt.
"Autumn is only responsible for your safety." Qiu Yi did not move at all, and was still protected by her and Qiu Ye.
Gradually, the chaotic sound of ping-pong on the field subsided.
Si Zhan was wearing armor, and he solemnly said with a surging righteousness: "Back to the emperor, all the assassins have been arrested. The messengers are safe. ”
Qiu Ye nodded and said majestically, "Hmm." Clean up the scene and call a doctor to treat everyone. As for the assassins, they will all be carefully investigated by me, and there will be no forgiveness for those who are not honest! ”
