Chapter 597: A Good Show
"It's getting late, I don't know if the lord of Luofu suddenly found us, what is the send?"
Late at night, Yeluqin and Xun Qin were invited by Luo Tianjin to the middle hall, and the two of them were confused, secretly speculating about Luo Tianjin's intentions.
Luo prepared a gift for the two of them, and he smiled at it. Luo Tianjin invited Yeluqin and Xunqin to taste tea, and smiled lightly, "Today, Master Shen of Dongshan Business came to the mansion as a guest, can you two hear about it?"
Hearing this, Yeluqin and Xun Qin couldn't help but glance at each other, both of them at a loss.
After a little groaning, Xun Qin put down the teacup and said with a smile, "Master Shen is a business tycoon, and he is hugged everywhere he goes, and he is full of show, how can we not know?"
"There are two rare guests who came with Master Shen today, do you know who they are?" Luo Tianjin asked quietly.
In fact, Yeluqin and Xunqin had already heard about Zhao Yuan and Qiu Han from their subordinates.
However, knowing that he knew that he was questioned by Luo Tianjin face to face at this moment, the two of them still showed an ignorant look, frowned slightly, and shook their heads one after another.
Seeing this, Luo Tianjin cast a playful gaze on Xie Xuan on the side and laughed loudly.
Yeluqin was stunned for a moment, and said incomprehensibly, "Why is the Lord of Luofu laughing?"
"Lord Ning doesn't know. Xie Xuan continued, "Actually, the two people who are walking with Master Shen today are Lord Qincha sent by the Great Song Dynasty, one is Zhao Yuan, the Marquis of the Second Rank Heavenly Machine, and the other is the Fifth Rank Shao Bao Qiu Han. ”
Ye Luqin and Xun Qinwan didn't expect Luo Tianjin to be honest with themselves, and they were a little caught off guard at the moment.
"Lord Qincha?" Yeluqin pretended to be confused, "What Qincha? Why did you come here?"
"Recruit Qincha, come for Zhao'an. Luo Tianjin restrained his smile and spoke bluntly.
"This ......" Xun Qin hesitated for a moment, and guessed, "As I expected, the Great Song Dynasty wants to use the power of the Central Plains martial arts to help them fight against the Mongol army......"
"Exactly. Luo Tianjin nodded and said, "Zhao Yuan has cut straight to me, intending to use the martial arts to expand the military strength of the Great Song Dynasty. ”
"I don't know ......," Yeluqin said worriedly, "what is the plan of the Lord of Luofu?"
"What does Lord Ning think Luo should do?" Luo Tianjin didn't answer, and his smile became deeper and deeper.
"This ......" Yeluqin looked embarrassed and said in a hurry, "According to common sense, the lord of Luofu is a leader of the Han people, affectionate and righteous, and has the world in mind, so he should not refuse Song Ting's request for help." But...... The lord of Luofu has decided to establish himself as emperor, and it seems that he should not wade into this troubled water......"
"What Lord Ning said is good, Luo didn't plan to wade into this troubled water. Luo Tianjin said righteously, "What's more, I have an appointment with the King of Shaoqin in advance, how can I change my orders and not believe my words?"
Hearing this, Yeluqin and Xun Qin couldn't help but look happy.
"So, the Lord of Luofu has already rejected Zhao Yuan?"
"Not bad. ”
Xun Qin's mind changed for a moment, and he said worriedly, "Although the lord of Luofu has made up his mind, I am afraid that Zhao Yuan will not give up." After all, it was not child's play for the Song court to send Fu Qincha, so how could he give up easily?"
When he said this, a figure kept appearing in Xun Qin's mind, it was Liu Xunyi.
Until this moment, she had completely guessed that Liu Xunyi's purpose lurking beside Luo Tianjin was to cooperate with Song Tingli and win over Luo Tianjin to the imperial court.
Thinking that he was holding Liu Xunyi's handle again, Xun Qin's eyes couldn't help but flash a faint look of pride.
Because of this, Luo wanted to give the two of them a gift. ”
Luo Tianjin's voice interrupted Xun Qin's thoughts, which lifted her spirits, and hurriedly asked, "I don't know...... What kind of gift?"
"Oooo
Before he finished speaking, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps outside the hall.
"The gift has arrived, and you two will know it at a glance!"
With Luo Tianjin's pretended mysterious ridicule, the panting Liu Xunyi strode into the middle hall.
At this moment, he was carrying the Wuji Sword in his left hand and a black cloth bag stained with blood in his right hand.
Seeing Yeluqin and Xun Qin, Liu Xunyi couldn't help but be stunned, and a sense of foreboding quickly rose in his heart.
"Meet the Mansion Master!"
Suppressing the apprehension in his heart, Liu Xunyi bowed to Luo Tianjin, and at the same time threw the black cloth bag in his hand on the ground.
As soon as he saw this, Xie Xuan's eyes changed suddenly, recalling what Luo Tianjin said to him in the afternoon, he was shocked at the moment, and looked at Luo Tianjin, who was silent.
Luo Tianjin's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at the bloodstained black cloth bag with a smile, and replied lightly, "Get up and speak." ”
"Thank you, Lord of the Mansion!"
Liu Xunyi's afterglow swept lightly towards Yeluqin and Xun Qin on the side, observing their reactions while speculating in their hearts about what they had said to Luo Tianjin.
After all, Xun Qin knows Liu Xunyi's true identity well, which is undoubtedly a huge hidden danger.
Thinking of this, Liu Xunyi's heart couldn't help but go up and down, and he was uneasy.
"Huh...... This is my gift to both of you. Luo Tianjin said to Xun Qin and Ye Luqin, "After the two of you read it, you will definitely understand Luo's sincerity to the King of Shaoqin." ”
"Oh?"
Yeluqin's face was full of curiosity, he slowly got up, walked to the black cloth bag in two steps, first looked in a circle, and then asked Liu Xunyi, "Liu Zhifan, I don't know what's inside?"
"This ......"
Liu Xunyi didn't know whether to tell the truth to Yeluqin, so he looked at Luo Tianjin with a hesitant look.
"I asked him to go to Danfeng Garden overnight to pick up some things. Luo Tianjin smiled indifferently, "The Great Song Dynasty's appeasement is now settling in Danfeng Garden. ”
"Shhh
Yeluqin gasped, and under Liu Xunyi's complicated gaze, he picked up the cloth bag and slowly untied it.
With a strong smell of blood escaping, a bloody severed hand appeared in front of everyone.
"Huh?"
Seeing this, Xie Xuan couldn't help but be taken aback, and subconsciously let out a question. But he concealed it very well, and before Xun Qin and Yeluqin noticed the abnormality, he gently covered his mouth and nose with his hand, as if he was uncomfortable with the sudden smell of blood.
After Luo Tianjin saw the severed hand, an indescribable light flashed in his eyes, but on the surface, he was calm and peaceful.
"This ...... It's ......"
"This is Qiu Han's left hand. Liu Xunyi explained, "Today, Qiu Han spoke disrespectfully to the lord of the mansion, and I was ordered to teach him a lesson. ”
"This ...... This ......"
Yeluqin was speechless, looking at the severed hand, then at the cold Liu Xunyi, and then at Luo Tianjin, who was smiling and silent, and finally his eyebrows and eyes were stretched, and he laughed unscrupulously.
"Good, very good, very good!" said Jerchin, "and it is a pleasure for the king to see this thing tonight." Presumably, King Shao Qin will also like this gift very much. ”
After that, Ye Luqin threw down his severed hand, bowed to Luo Tianjin, and said, "The lord of Luofu is full of words, and this king admires him very much! The lord of Luofu can rest assured that the promise of the king of Shaoqin will never change, and you and I will definitely be in harmony for a thousand years and will never abandon it." ”
Yeluqin's words made Liu Xunyi smack, and his imagination flowed, and he became more and more curious about what the promise between King Shaoqin and Luo Tianjin was?
"Since Prince Ning and Miss Xun Qin are very satisfied with the gifts, presumably the two of you can sleep peacefully tonight. Luo Tianjin smiled meaningfully, "It's not early, the two of you go back early to rest." ”
"Farewell!"
After greeting each other, Yeluqin and Xun Qin put away Qiu Han's severed hand and left the middle hall satisfied.
Seeing the two of them walking away, Liu Xunyi's eyes suddenly changed, and he knelt on the ground with a "poof", and bowed to Luo Tianjin to apologize, "If you fail to retrieve Qiu Han's head, you will be punished by the lord of the mansion!"
Facing Liu Xunyi's sincere fear, Luo Tianjin didn't say a word, just stared at him silently.
"Liu Xunyi, why are you like this?" Xie Xuan asked.
"One is that he has never been with Qiu Han in his life, and he has no grievances or hatreds, so he can't bear to take his life. Liu Xunyi said ashamedly, "Two, after all, he is an official of the imperial court, although he is occasionally disrespectful when he comes this time, it is his duty, for the sake of the national fortune of the Great Song Dynasty and the safety of the world, so he is not a wicked person in nature, so he ...... I want to leave him alive to go to the battlefield to fight against the northern barbarians, and I can do my part for the people of the world. Of the three, it is true that Qiu Han is wrong to contradict the lord of the mansion, but ...... Sin does not lead to death, and if he takes his life because of this, the matter will be publicized, lest it be detrimental to the reputation of the lord of the house. ”
"In that case, why did you take one of his hands?"
Hearing this, Liu Xunyi's face was entangled, and he said, "It's not a secret, in fact, this hand ...... It wasn't me who forcibly cut it down, but Lord Zhao ordered it, and Qiu Han took the initiative to sacrifice it. ”
"Oh?" this remark aroused Luo Tianjin's interest, and he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and asked rhetorically, "Why?"
"Because Lord Zhao doesn't want to make the lord of the mansion dissatisfied with the Great Song Dynasty because of Qiu Han's recklessness. Liu Xunyi took advantage of the situation and said, "Lord Zhao said that Qiu Han didn't understand the rules and should be punished. In fact...... Even I was taken aback. ”
In this way, this Lord Zhao is full of sincerity. Luo Tianjin smiled weirdly, "In order to please me, he is willing to sacrifice his cronies, but it shows that I have a little belly and chicken intestines." Hehe......"
"Mansion master, look for clothes and confess. Liu Xunyi couldn't guess Luo Tianjin's thoughts, so he repeatedly admitted his mistake, "I know the rules of the mansion, and I should be severely punished for disobeying the orders of the lord of the mansion without authorization." Next...... Let the lord of the house decide. ”
After saying that, Liu Xunyi leaned over and kowtowed, pressing his head tightly to the ground, looking resolute and willing to die.
Seeing this, Luo Tianjin and Xie Xuan glanced at each other, and the corners of their mouths couldn't help but raise a treacherous smile.
"Brother Xie, how did I tell Liu Xunyi?"
"The lord of the mansion ordered Liu Xunyi to retrieve Qiu Han's head ......"
"Really?" Luo Tianjin pretended to hesitate, "Are you not mistaken?
"This ......" Xie Xuan's eyes moved, and he said thoughtfully, "It seems to be ...... It doesn't seem to be. No, no, no, the main thing in the house is not the 'head', it seems to be the 'handwriting'......"
"This 'hand' is not the 'head' of the other, and the difference between one word can be worlds apart. You and I must not just wronged the innocent on the basis of 'unwarranted'. ”
"What the lord of the mansion said is extremely true!"
With that, Luo Tianjin got up slowly, stretched his limbs lazily, and walked out of the hall with Xie Xuan accompanied by him.
"It's really old, and my memory is not as good as it used to be. Hehe......"
"The lord of the mansion is in his prime, and he is not old at all, but he has been doing a lot of chores recently, and he is a little tired......"
Luo Tianjin and Xie Xuan sang and harmonized, talked and laughed, and gradually disappeared into the snowstorm.
Liu Xunyi was ready to face the storm, but unexpectedly, the result was calm and the world was peaceful.
In the middle hall, he knelt on the ground alone, full of confusion, stunned, and surprised for a long time.
