Chapter 368: The King Arrives
Outside the hall, there was a sudden sound of dense footsteps all around, all running towards here. Five or six people rushed in first, all with large knives and chains in their hands.
It seems that they are always ready to arrest and lock people.
At this time, Shen Feiyang stood up and said loudly:
"Is this true or false, more than a dozen of us came to your country, we definitely won't come to find trouble, we are here to verify this fact, I hope you will tell the king about this matter, and invite the national teacher, won't the truth be revealed?"
He said these words proudly, and he also said to the point, and the other party's officials listened to it reasonably. The other party only came with more than 10 people, what would they do? It is not easy to take down these people anytime, anywhere.
Of course, there is another factor, Shen Feiyang used the qi of the dantian, and the sound of the voice was like a bell, shaking the dust on the roof and shaking everyone's ear drums into a ring. They were stunned by the momentum.
The officials of Loulan State whispered a few words, and one of them stood up, and the soldier who was still at the door said:
"You go out first. ”
Then he turned back to the officials of the two countries and said:
"Then please wait a moment, and we will go to the king at once. This matter really has nothing to do with our Loulan country, and when the time comes, you will give us an explanation. ”
After he finished speaking, he hurried out.
A few ceremonial staff came in, poured tea for everyone, and in order to ease the tension, a few court dance performers came, and they performed a few dances for everyone.
About a moment after the tea, there was a sound of footsteps outside, and a proclamator announcing the arrival of the king, and the people stood up.
A few people walked in from the outside, and there were two people at the front. The people who came in behind either retreated or stepped aside.
The first person was full of red light and grandeur, and everyone knew that this was the king of the country. The second person was the official who had just left.
When the king of Loulan stood still, the officials of Loulan introduced everyone, and everyone greeted the king with warm applause and saluted them.
The officials of the Jingjue Kingdom and the Wusun Kingdom also conveyed the blessings brought by the kings of their two countries to the kings of the Loulan Kingdom. Everyone sat down.
The officials there gave the king a brief briefing.
The king asked:
"Where is our national teacher, and why didn't you invite him?"
The official who had just sat down said:
"I sent someone to invite me, but the person who sent it came back and said that the national teacher was unwell and could not come, so please ask the king to be your master. ”
"This, this thing is not easy to do without a national teacher. Let's talk about the handling of the matter first. ”
The king turned to the officials of the two countries.
The diplomat of the Elite Nation said:
"Your Majesty, we don't dare to say anything about it. I just want you to do justice. Retrieve the bodies of the sixteen soldiers we brought last night and see if they are the guards of your country.
Also, when we interrogated the captive, the captive said that their leader was the national teacher of your country, and I hope that the national teacher of your country will come out and say a few words to explain the matter, so as not to cause misunderstanding among everyone. ”
"This, this, our national teacher said that he was sick, and this is not easy to do. Well, let's check the five cars you mentioned to see if there's such a thing. As for the national teacher, we have to wait until he is better, what do you think?"
The officials of the two kingdoms said the same when they bought the king, and there was no choice but to hope that they could find out their five wagons that carried the corpses, and that the bodies would be found, and if they were their people, see what else they had to say.
It is impossible to force their king to go and find out the national teacher immediately.
When everyone returned to the post house, some officials were worried that they would send someone to kill them, and Shen Feiyang said to everyone:
"You don't have to worry about this, we are negotiating this matter with them on behalf of the two countries, if they kill us, won't there be three hundred taels of silver here, in this way, they will be at a loss, a matter that may be clearly explained, it is not clear. ”
The next day, the officials of Loulan came to inform them, saying that they had not found the cars they had mentioned, and that they had not seen them bring ten cars here, and that their entourage might have made a mistake.
As soon as the officials of the two countries heard this, they knew that they were lying, but on other people's lichens, they did not admit it, and they did not take advantage of others. Those two military uniforms really don't explain too much of the problem, not to mention that they are still the military uniforms of the exquisite country.
Now the only breakthrough is with the national teacher. If this national teacher doesn't come out, in two more days, even his wounds will heal, and there will be no evidence.
And you can't stay in someone's place all the time, at most you can only go back for a day or two.
If this matter is not handled well, it will still fall into the mouths of others, and the timber association will use this as an excuse to attack one of the countries, and the other country will not come forward to help, which is really anxious for everyone. Everyone is at a loss.
At noon, when the officials of Loulan invited them to lunch, they also said intentionally or unintentionally:
"I don't know what the two countries think about this, but I think if there are no consequences, it will end here. I don't know what our national teacher is doing well.
If you have nothing to do, you can stay with us for a few days, and our officials will show you around several of our historic places to learn about our culture and history. ”
When you hear it, isn't this a clear eviction order? You can't stay here for a long time. If you don't say anything about leaving today, you will have to leave tomorrow.
It was said that the visit would last three days, but now it is the second day, and in the absence of reliable evidence, I will have to leave tomorrow.
During dinner, Shen Feiyang decided to go to the National Teacher's Mansion to see what kind of illness the national teacher was and whether this national teacher was the only envoy they were looking for.
During the banquet, he intentionally or unintentionally asked how many national teachers there were in their country. The official told him that there were two national teachers.
But now the king trusts only one national teacher, this national teacher surnamed Du, has been in their country for five or six years, because he has a strong martial arts, he has obtained the king's common sense.
and told him that this national teacher was very busy during this time, and said that it was this national teacher surnamed Du who was sick. Shen Feiyang casually asked him where this national teacher lived.
The official told him that the national teacher surnamed Du lived in the national teacher's mansion, and there was only one national teacher, and the largest mansion in the southeast was. A building to the left of the resident division with the surname Du.
After dinner, the officials over there have already sent some of the gifts back, and the meaning is very clear, you will say goodbye tomorrow, and we will not talk about it, as for whether we want to trouble you in the future, it depends on our mood.
In order not to make a mistake at night, after dinner, he pretended to go to see the buildings of Loulan Kingdom, and accompanied by two officials, they walked to the National Teacher's Mansion in the southeast, but they did not walk in.
With a certain understanding of the location of the National Teacher's Mansion, Shen Feiyang decided to break into the National Teacher's Mansion at night, hoping to meet this national teacher surnamed Du. He believes that the truth will come out.
After dinner, everyone returned to the post office, and Shen Feiyang told the diplomats of the two countries about this idea.
Everyone didn't expect that there was a better way, and after a long time, when the injuries of the Duwang envoy were completely healed, then don't expect a result in this matter.
Everyone was worried about his safety, but the matter had come to this point, and they had to agree.
After staying until ten o'clock in the evening, Shen Feiyang changed into a set of clothes, and the clothes of the officials in the future tense were changed into a set of night clothes.
Before leaving, he said to the two officials:
"When I got to the National Teacher's Mansion over there, about an hour later, you said that there was an entourage who went out to play and was invited by the National Teacher, and now count the number of people, and I have sent this person behind, and now I want to pick up this person back. Then, let their officials lead the way and go to the National Teacher's Mansion to find me.
As for where I am, if I am still there, you will say that I am a lost person.
If I hadn't been there, you'd say maybe the person reporting it had made a mistake, and there was no face to speak of now.
If I have a fight with the envoy over there, I will try my best to make a noise to alarm more people to know, so that more people can see the true face of this national teacher. ”
According to the two of them, his toes were on the ground a little, and the person was like a big peng, which had spread its wings and flew onto the roof.
Out of the post house, he ran straight to the southeast. During the day, he had already done an investigation into the National Teacher's Mansion.
It's just that I don't dare to get down to the ground, because once I get to the ground, I will be discovered if I am not careful. So Shen Feiyang used his eaves and wall walking skills to walk on the roof as much as possible.
If there is a distance between the buildings, and it is not possible to get from one roof to another, he will wait for the patrolmen to walk past and then go down to the ground and up again.
There was not much time wasted in the middle, and after about half an hour, the others arrived at the National Teacher's Mansion.
Looking at this national teacher's mansion during the day, it is not very good, but now looking at this national teacher's mansion, although the Spring Festival has passed, it still maintains an extraordinary momentum and has different decorations.
The palace lamps are not enough for a thousand lights, and the silver flowers and thousands of trees hang money; only three hundred and six a year, always Yan Yan and happy.
In other words, this National Teacher's Mansion is really comparable to the Imperial Palace, but it lacks some bearing, but it does not dare to be less majestic. Perhaps, the majesty of this national teacher is no less than that of the imperial palace.
There are a lot of people in and out, but there is a dimension and order in and out, no one is giggling, only absolute rules.
But this is a huge place in the National Teacher's Mansion, and there are several large houses, but the left and right are like two pieces of heaven, and two emperors are in charge. It's simply one in the sky and one on the ground.
On the left is imposing and magnificent, and on the right is lifeless and air-conditioned.
This is really the pursuit of two national teachers. On the right is a sparsely populated area, and on the left is a bustling traffic with people coming and going.
Shen Feiyang crouched on the top of the second house after entering the gate, and he knew that the national teacher surnamed Du was in the palatial place on the left.
He saw another group of beautiful women walk over, and after a few ups and downs, they jumped to the roof of the third house on the left.
Starting from the third house on the left, here is a three-step sentry and a five-step sentry, and the defense is very tight.
Shen Feiyang just walked when he saw a lot of people, and when he saw the road where people came and went, he followed the direction of these people.
After walking through the roofs of the three buildings, at this time, there is a large courtyard in front and three attics behind the courtyard, and the finished glyph is arranged. There are doormen in all three attics.
He didn't know which room was the room of the envoy, how could he know the room and where the envoy was going, so he decided to listen to the people below him first to see if he could hear some information.
In order to be able to get closer to those who were passing by, he turned his body backwards, and down from the ridge of the roof, he grasped a descending tile with both hands, and with both feet up, with only a few handfuls, the man slid like a long snake to the eaves, and at this time, as long as the people who passed under the porch spoke, he could hear clearly.
As soon as the people were settled, two girls came from the west.
