Chapter 197: Banquet? Farce?

In the county king's mansion.

The sound of drums made Liu Mo upset. On the platform of the musicians in the hall, the cry of the flute, the trilling of the xun, the scream of the guqin and the roar of the horn were heard at the same time, but the most disturbing thing was the sound of the drum, which gave him goosebumps.

The chaotic tune echoed in the room, and at first, Liu Mo questioned whether the eldest prince was deaf? can tolerate such horrible and terrible music.

But later, Luo Shou told him the truth that these so-called musicians were not professional musicians at all, but subordinates of the great prince.

"So, tonight's banquet is simply a banquet for the eldest prince to entertain his subordinates, and by the way, let the Xingluo envoys have a meal!" Liu Mo thought to himself, "It's really fucking enough to bully people!" ”

Not only that, but even Liu Mo couldn't stand the arranged seats.

The high-ranking generals under the Great Prince and Liu Mo were separated from the entire hall, and Great Xia was respected in the east, so these high-ranking generals sat in the east, only one seat lower than the high platform where the Great Prince himself was located.

Liu Mo and Luo Shou and other officials of the Ministry of Rites were in the west, and Zhao Da and Tang Qingfeng were behind them. And all the Xingluo envoys, including Princess Xingluo, were all arranged at the gate of the hall.

Not only that, but some envoys were even arranged to sit outside the hall with the county king's house.

In terms of dishes, Liu Mo is even more powerless to complain.

The eldest prince is a kind of general, who eats chicken, duck and fish, and delicacies from the mountains and seas. The first course of Xingluo's envoys, stir-fried bean sprouts.

Then came white radish, cucumbers and unknown leafy greens, a hill of winter pickles, and a mung bean soup that had cooled down before it was served.

How are these things worthy of entertaining the envoys?

Out of courtesy, Liu Mo and Luo Shou went to toast and tasted a few dishes, only to feel their stomachs churning.

Prince Xingluo and Ayina didn't have any complaints, and ate meticulously, which made Liu Mo's heart even more uncomfortable!

The Great Prince sat in the center, a burly man with wrinkles of age and thin eyebrows, eyes as black as eternal night, and a pointed nose and forehead. The black hair was shiny, but there were a few silver strands.

Since the beginning of the dinner, he had been laughing loudly at his subordinates below, laughing loudly at their answers, but he never glanced at the Star Luo envoy beside him.

After about an hour, one of the half-drunk generals stood up, held a jar of wine, and staggered to Prince Xingluo. "Here, do one!" He said.

With a smile on his face, Prince Xingluo got up politely and handed over the wine glass in his hand.

However, the general did not appreciate it, and deliberately shook the wine jar when pouring the wine, and the wine in the jar was drenched all over the body of Prince Xingluo.

"Drink!"

There was no apology, no smile, the general picked up the wine jar and poured a big gulp.

King Xingluo smiled bitterly and drank the wine in his cup in one gulp.

"Hahaha!" The general laughed, "Brothers, do you want to see what a soup chicken is?" ”

Good guys, what do you want to do? Liu Mo felt uneasy!

In the next second, something happened that made Liu Mo angry.

I saw that the general lifted the wine jar above Prince Xingluo's head, and poured the wine directly down according to his head.

At this time, it was the end of November, Jizhou was in the north of Great Xia, and the weather was very cold.

The stream of wine washed over his face, soaked his hair, stinged his eyes, ran down his chin, and wet his clothes. "How do you feel, Prince Xingluo?" The general scoffed.

This jar of wine was like a sword of wind and frost, stabbing into the chests of all the envoys of Xingluo.

"Hahahaha!" The generals of the Great Prince let out bursts of laughter, sharp and cruel, like a leather whip.

Prince Xingluo's eyes were almost bursting with fire, and he wiped his face with his sleeve, blinking and trying to get his vision back to clear. Bitter with a smiling face, maybe before leaving, he had expected it.

There is no diplomacy for a weak country! This is the best proof of this.

"It's very inappropriate." Liu Mo heard Luo Shou say quietly.

"That's not the case, this lord," Prince Xingluo didn't want to make a bigger fool, and couldn't be here, in front of all the Xingluo envoys, "Not every adult is willing to come and salute the envoys in person for a glass of wine." Unfortunately, the wine was spilled. ”

"I didn't spill it! I'm not here to toast you! The general didn't comprehend the steps that Prince Xingluo had provided for him, "But since you said toast, can you come and pour me a toast?" ”

"I'm honored." Prince Xingluo said.

"It's not an honor!" The general screamed, "Pick up the glass for me." ”

Prince Xingluo silently complied, and stretched out his hand towards the ear of the glass, but the general kicked over the wine glass. "Pick it up! You're so stupid! ”

Prince Xingluo crawled under the table to find something.

"Very well, pour me a drink now!"

Prince Xingluo grabbed the flask from the hand of a palace maid and filled the wine glass two-thirds full.

"No, get on your knees!" The general continued.

"Enough!" Liu Mo couldn't hold back any longer, "What kind of identity are you, asking Prince Xingluo to kneel down to you?" ”

The general turned his head and looked at Liu Mo with resentful eyes.

"You go down." The eldest prince spoke in an unaffected and precise tone, "My brother, there is no sense of proportion in joking, Xingluo envoy, and I still hope for Haihan!" ”

Prince Xingluo didn't speak, just smiled and returned to his seat.

"Oh yes, that's it? Lao Tzu..."Liu Mo was about to get up, but was pulled by Luo Shou.

"Lord Liu, calm down! This farce will soon be over! ”

Soon? Come to an end? Liu Mo scoffed, "Lord Luo, this is just the beginning." ”

As Liu Mo expected, the connivance of the eldest prince made his subordinates even more unscrupulous.

After a while, another bearded general came to Ayina drunken and said, "I heard that you are dancing very well, come, dance for General Ben!" ”

There is no honorific title, not a consultation, like a master calling a maid!

Aina first glanced up at the other party, and then squeezed out a smile, "If you adults are happy, the little girl is ugly!" ”

Then she stood up and walked slowly to the center of the hall.

Although she tried her best to keep her smile on her face, Liu Mo saw a tear flowing down her face. She tried her best to hide her tears, because she knew all too well the mission of the trip.

I saw her take a deep breath, and suddenly the water sleeves were about to be thrown away, and the sleeves danced, as if there were countless petals fluttering down in the air, swaying, petals, holding wisps of agarwood.

She... What a beautiful dance! Liu Mo sighed.

However, at this moment, the bearded general walked up to Ayina very badly.

"Look, this girl dances really well!"

As he spoke, he leaned his body obscenely against Aina's delicate body with his body that smelled of alcohol.

Seeing this, the other generals burst into laughter.

There was even a general who said unsightly swear words, "Hahaha, Lao Feng, I bet you don't dare to touch her!" ”

"Pinch her N-ko! If there's a kind of pinch, you'll pinch! ”

"What's the point of that? I've heard that the women of Xingluo have two doors, how interesting it is to enter the door and see! ”

"That's right, both are sturdy, things aren't big enough to get in!"

The hall burst into laughter again.

At this time, a tall general jumped on the table and boasted about his "things": "The master is big enough!" Definitely get into it. He announced, "Your Highness, why don't you go and tell Your Majesty that he will give me this girl?" ”

"Lao Hu, this girl hasn't had a physical examination, if she is not a chick, wouldn't she lose a fortune!"

"It's okay, but I don't like inexperienced chicks!"

"Hahaha, what do I want to do too?"

A group of people made a commotion, "Your Highness, I want it too, I want it too!" ”

And that's not even the most outrageous.

Then, several generals rushed to the center and took the lead drunk. They surrounded Ayina, and some even began to get out of their hands.

No matter how strong she is, no matter how mentally prepared, seeing such a group of evil men with bad intentions, Ayina can't hold on.

She cried, her eyes full of fear.

Is Lao Tzu drafting! Liu Mo couldn't hold back any longer.

However, it was Luo Shou who was the first to export, "Stop, stop it all for me!" He shouted, "My Great Xia is a country of etiquette, how dare you do this!" ”
