After Xiao Zheng finished saying this, the corner of his eyes swept Liu Zhuxue, who didn't put him in it, and the smile on the corner of his mouth seemed to have a deep meaning, and it seemed that the four words like flowers and jade were accentuated.
Dai Guozi has always been deaf and clear-sighted, talking to Liu Zhuxue on this side, and paying attention to the other party's reaction at all times. Sure enough, he wanted to say to the other party, the Han people have a saying that the drunkard does not mean to drink, I don't know if you have heard of it. Before coming, he promised not to cause trouble, and the other party had no malicious intent, so he put up with it for the time being.
For some reason, Dai Guozi suddenly thought of Su Na, the woman would often say how you Han people are doing, with a disdainful look, but she liked the Han man, and she couldn't ask for it.
His left hand struck in the palm of his right hand, how could he always meet this kind of guy who couldn't understand people's words recently.
And Liu Zhuxue's reaction was even more calm, no matter what Xiao Zheng said, there was no trace of wanting to pull on herself. What are you talking about, I'm sorry, I really didn't notice and didn't hear.
Dai Guozi found that Liu Zhuxue was indeed easier to deal with than his way of dealing with it, and gave the other party a heartfelt blow.
Silver Tooth shouted for a long time, Gu Changming never had the intention of taking over, and Xiao Zheng did not have clearer instructions. He suddenly got up in a hurry, pulled the tether of the brocade bag, and poured out all the contents in a hurry, poured half of the table, and piled it up like a small mountain.
Xiao Zheng calmly waited for them to let out an amazing inhalation sound, he has never been a stingy person, since he is going to give gifts to the door, he naturally has to choose the best things. Even if the other party's family is a North Korean and Chinese official, I heard that he is also very honest and self-loving, how could he have seen such a pomp.
As for the girl, women were born to like shiny things more than men, and it was not a matter of value but an instinct. Xiao Zheng didn't pay attention to Dai Guozi's deliberate provocation at all, he waited for Liu Zhuxue's reaction.
Who knows, half of Liu Zhuxue's face is still hidden in Gu Changming's back, and she continues the topic of Fang Cai by herself: "I heard Master say that her old man used to go back and forth with a sword, coming and going freely, saying that the mountains and scenery over there are completely different, open and close, showing the true colors of nature, and it is worth seeing." ”
"It turns out that Master Dingyuan has been there." Dai Guozi smiled sullenly, these jewels were not originally for him, he was too lazy to look at them. Now Liu Zhuxue has such a gratifying reaction, he decided not to participate in Gu Changming's conversation, and talked to her wholeheartedly, saying that she liked to listen to it.
"Don't look at the master as a woman, I'm afraid that the courage of ten men combined is not as good as her. Of course, you and Big Brother Gu can't be counted among ten. Liu Zhuxue wrinkled her nose playfully, "If you have a chance, since you can speak Liaoguo, we can take a walk in a place where there are few people and beautiful scenery." ”
Gu Changming could hear the conversation between the two clearly, if it was a little deliberate at the beginning, then Liu Zhuxue's more natural tone became the more she spoke, which was enough to make Xiao Zheng's face on the opposite side change color.
Xiao Zheng saw that the jewels spread out on half of the table did not play their due role at all, and if the other three were either blind, they really didn't take money seriously. He glanced at Silver Tooth again, and scolded: "Is this the attitude towards the benefactor, the benefactor said very clearly, when we save people, we don't know who we are, and we don't put them away, it's a shame!" ”
Gu Changming finished listening to his reprimand, and then asked, "Then who are you?" ”
Xiao Zheng opened his mouth and put himself in first. This benefactor is long and short, and if the benefactor asks the truth, he can't hide the past, or lie directly. There will always be a time when it will be exposed in the future, and his mind is there, and sooner or later he will show that identity, otherwise how to impress the hearts of beauties?
At first, he thought that Gu Liu and the two had that kind of relationship, but after inquiring, he felt that the two of them adhered to etiquette, which was really not the same. When he saw Liu Zhuxue and another young man, talking happily and smiling, he knew that this one might be what he had to deal with.
"Don't hide it from my son, I am an envoy sent to the Great Song Dynasty by the Liao State, and I am also a privy envoy of the Liao State. Today's Queen Mother is my aunt and grandmother. Since Xiao Zheng didn't plan to hide it, he simply told all his identity and background in one go.
Sure enough, his identity is clearly more noticeable than jewelry. Liu Zhuxue stopped talking to Guozi, turned her head to look at Xiao Zheng, her eyes were shining, and she seemed to be thinking about something.
Xiao Zheng thought that he was extremely embarrassed at that time, and he was stuck in the throat by the kernel because he was greedy for eating a few fresh fruits, and almost lost his life on the street of Kaifeng Mansion. When he turned the corner and refocused his gaze, it was Liu Zhuxue's eyes that rushed in. I don't know if it is the blessing of the rest of his life after the catastrophe, Xiao Zheng thinks that these eyes are beautiful scenery that he has never seen before.
When the focus of his eyes is clearer, he can see Liu Zhuxue's appearance completely, which did not disappoint him at all, such a beauty is worthy of such a pair of wonderful eyes.
At this moment, Liu Zhuxue's gaze was fixed on his body again, making him feel a warm sense of comfort all over his body, and his tone of voice was more complacent: "These were originally secrets that only a few people knew between the two countries. Naturally, your emperor knows, but externally, I came to Kaifeng Mansion from Liao to travel and practice. ”
"You didn't have to tell us that." Gu Changming seemed to have forgotten the identity of Xiao Zheng who he originally asked, "Since it is so secretive, I want to do something big." It is inconvenient for us ordinary people to participate in it. ”
"It's okay, I've already lived in the post station of Kaifeng Mansion, and my identity is not a secret." Xiao Zheng waved his hand and smiled, "Gu Gongzi is too modest, I heard that you are famous, how can you be an ordinary person?" ”
"In the Great Song Dynasty, as long as you don't become an official in the dynasty and are not relatives of the emperor, you can only be regarded as ordinary people." Gu Changming seemed to explain to him patiently, "Therefore, it is inconvenient for several people to stay here as envoys of the Liao State, especially the status of privy envoys, if there is a slight deviation, we can't afford it." ”
Gu Changming saw that Yinya had already put away the jewels on the table cleanly, and it was just the time to send off the guests: "The heart has been delivered, if there is nothing else, please ask a few people to return to the post station quickly, there are officers and soldiers guarding there, it is much safer." ”
Xiao Zheng must be able to hear Gu Changming's meaning, and his face is even more ugly: "I came all the way, and I saw that the people in the land of the Great Song Dynasty were simple, and I had never encountered an unsafe experience. At this time, they have all arrived in Kaifeng Mansion, and under the nose of your emperor, what is not safe. Did Gu Gongzi be too careful, or did he not speculate with me for more than half a sentence? ”
When Gu Changming listened to his words, he was very arrogant, and he was obviously angry, but he was not good at attacking in front of the so-called life-saving benefactor, so he couldn't bear it: "No matter where you are, there is safety and insecurity." When the privy envoy returns to Daliao, he must feel that it is the safest place in the world, but what if we go? ”
Xiao Zheng took a deep breath, and the two people behind him looked at each other, knowing that the privy envoy was usually eloquent, and was deeply appreciated by the king and the queen mother. He was originally the most outstanding figure among the descendants of the Queen Mother's mother's family, but when he arrived in Kaifeng Mansion, he was almost speechless by a young man who was nothing.
"Okay, Gu Gongzi is all kind, and I also understand it." Xiao Zheng's gaze quickly swept over the three people in front of him, and he really didn't eat soft and hard, and he didn't eat oil and salt. He couldn't think of a way to break their defense line for a while, this Gu Changming looked polite and generous, but in fact, word by word, a transparent and invisible barrier had already been erected between the two sides, making it extremely difficult for people to take one more step.
This Gu family, this Gu Changming, is just the first hand he came into contact with, Xiao Zheng suddenly laughed, some things must not be anxious, otherwise it is easy to reveal greater flaws, he pretended to agree with Gu Changming's words: "The habits between Song and Liao are very different, I can appreciate the subtlety of the mind, this is what you Confucianism calls the way of a gentleman, very good, very good." ”
Gu Changming smiled back and said, "The privy envoy has a very extensive understanding of the Han people. ”
"In that case, without further ado, we should go back too." Xiao Zheng heard the alienation of this sentence even more, and knew that it was absolutely impossible to go further in any aspect today. He immediately got up and made a simple salute to Gu Changming, "If you are forced to accept the thank you gift, it will not be the way of a gentleman." ”
"Thank you for your understanding." Gu Changming got up almost at the same time and returned the salute. He stood up, Liu Zhuxue couldn't hide anymore, and got up with Dai Guozi to return the salute.
"Then take your leave." Xiao Zheng took two entourages, without the slightest drag, and really said that he would leave.
Gu Changming personally sent people to the gate of the courtyard alone, since people are willing to go, then the number of etiquette must not be less than half a point.
Xiao Zheng walked to the gate of the courtyard, stood firm on his feet, did not turn around, did not even glance at Gu Changming, and said in a deep voice: "Gu Gongzi is an extremely smart person, he should be able to become an adult." ”
"The beauty of adults also needs your affection and my willingness, otherwise it can only be regarded as a strong man." Gu Changming's smile was faint, and his right hand was facing the gate of the courtyard, "The post station is not far from here, be careful on the road." ”
Xiao Zheng walked out of a long way angrily, where did the two entourages dare to speak out halfway, for fear of offending him. Until he stopped on his own, he snorted coldly: "Is this surnamed Gu really powerful?" This time, he spoke Liaoguo.
Golden Tooth spoke for the first time from beginning to end: "The person surnamed Fang said that although Gu Changming is not in the court, he is much more powerful than those officials. The adults came to the Great Song Dynasty this time, and they were burdened with heavy responsibilities, so why bother to make extraneous branches in this person. ”
"When I almost died on the street, why didn't you two say anything like that!" Xiao Zheng really planned to vent his anger.
Golden Tooth didn't shut up because of this, and continued: "My lord, last time it could only be regarded as an accident, and we know the intentions of my lord. If this method of treating each other with courtesy does not work, the Han people have an old saying that the order of the parents and the matchmaker say that the woman has no choice in her own marriage, and the adult should know what to do to hug the beauty in one fell swoop. ”
Xiao Zheng didn't say anything at first, and seemed to roll the words of the golden tooth in his head before he showed a smile: "Your words reminded me that there are shortcuts, why do you have to lose face and go a long way." Very well, it's done, count it in on you. ”
