Chapter 387: The Return of the Envoy
The Mongol mission arrived in Xingqing at noon the next day, and Li Qinglu personally went to greet her - her father was said to be still ill and would not come out of the palace. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info until welcoming the banquet in the palace to receive the wind, it was all handled by Li Qinglu as the host. Chen Shu saw that her words and deeds were extremely decent, calm and quite atmospheric, which showed that she had indeed received a lot of exercise during this time.
When entering the city, the Xixia people watched along the street, but the Golden Wheel Dharma King, who was most concerned, did not show up, and he still did not come out until the banquet. The Mongols themselves don't say it, and it's not easy for others to ask. This time the Mongols were still headed by Batu, this person was calm and calm, and there was a prestige that was not angry and self-imposing, and everyone in the Western Xia officials was quite afraid of him, and only Li Qinglu had to say a few words to him according to etiquette, and asked: "Didn't the king of your country come?"
Batu smiled slightly, and said lightly: "He doesn't like this lively occasion, so he has gone to the pavilion to rest, and asked the princess to forgive him." ”
Li Qinglu was stunned when she heard this, but she had nothing to answer. Although this behavior of the Mongols is rude, in this case, they are strong and weak, and there is no need to delve into this kind of stubble. She quietly diverted the topic and said with a smile: "I gave the gift to Her Royal Highness Princess Huazheng, I don't know if she is still satisfied?"
Batu glanced at her in surprise, and Hülegu next to him suddenly sneered and said, "Is there no man in Xixia? Calling a woman out to show her face?
All the officials next to him were talking and talking about each other, but when they saw the Mongolian prince suddenly speak mockingly, they all suddenly fell silent, everyone looked nervous, and the hall was silent for a while.
Batu showed a hint of helplessness on his face, obviously expecting Hülegü to make a provocative statement, but he couldn't stop it. He shook his head slightly, but showed a hint of interest, and watched with a smile how Chen Shu and Li Qinglu reacted.
Li Qinglu was a little at a loss for a while, after all, the last time he openly repented of his marriage in front of everyone, this person didn't do anything, it has been so many days, why did he suddenly provoke trouble? After biting his lip for a while, he said in a deep voice: "The prince is serious, although Qinglu is a daughter, but the emperor's younger brother is still young, and his father is seriously ill, so he has to do his best." If there is any rudeness, please make it clear to the prince. ”
Hülegü was stunned when she heard this, she opened her mouth and stammered, Chen Shu secretly praised in her heart, she encountered this sudden situation, she was not ashamed or annoyed, neither humble nor arrogant, but let Hülegü himself not get off the stage.
Batu also glanced at Li Qinglu in surprise, and was about to speak, Chen Shu rushed ahead and said lightly: "I have heard for a long time that Mongolia is strong, has millions of soldiers, has thousands of miles of armor, horses and horses, and bows and arrows cover the sky, and it is a well-deserved overlord on the grassland." Mongolian men are all heroes, arrogant, see today, really worthy of the name, the prince drank, the sonic shock hall, everyone was silent, it was really extraordinary, admire, admire!"
When Hülegü first heard his praise, his face was suddenly full of disdain, thinking that this person was timid and afraid, and when he heard the last sentence, he couldn't help but blush. Chen Shu's words were to suppress his words, but he was sarcastic for shouting in public and not knowing the etiquette.
The Mongols did not rise to the steppe for a long time, and although the Jin Liao kingdoms, which were deeply affected by the sinicization, were afraid of it like a tiger, they inevitably despised it a little, thinking that it was barbaric, which was also the taboo of the Mongols. Hearing Chen Shu's sarcasm, Hülegü suddenly felt ashamed and annoyed, slapped the table, and with a bang, several silver plates on the table flew straight up and fell to the ground on the spot.
Badu frowned and said, "Fifth brother!"
Hülegü gritted his teeth and said, "Second brother, don't stop me, I'm not done with this barbarian!"
As he spoke, he pointed at Chen Shu and shouted: "Don't play tricks, you are a good man, fight with me in a dignified manner!"
Everyone in the hall was frightened, but Chen Shu was bright in his heart. The last time Hulegu made an appointment to fight, but he did not fight by himself, it shows that although this person is young, he knows the importance of it. After coming back this time, he was the first to stir up trouble, apparently because of this incident, he was ridiculed by his Mongolian brothers. After all, although he and Li Qinglu did not have any feelings at all, they did come to get engaged, and it was undoubtedly a great shame for the Mongols to make such an accident. Hülegü himself can endure it, but after all, he is a young man in his twenties, but he can't stand the mockery of his brother, so he will come back to challenge.
He sneered in his heart, everyone was afraid of the Mongols, but he had been against them for a long time. Moreover, judging from all kinds of signs, there has been a great change in the Mongols, so what is there to fear? He immediately stood up and said with a long smile: "I can't ask for it! But the decisive battle has not yet arrived, does the prince want to advance to this time?"
Xu Legu was stunned for a moment, and then shouted: "State affairs return to state affairs, I have a personal grudge with you, and winning or losing has nothing to do with it!"
Badu frowned and stood up, glanced at Chen Shu coldly, and said lightly: "The competition is just enough, Your Royal Highness the princess, do you say yes?"
Li Qinglu hurriedly said: "Exactly, it's good that the two of you are interested in performing martial arts." Although she had confidence in Chen Shu, she was also afraid that he would hurt Hülegü, and at that time, the Mongols were furious and broke the contract to attack, which would be bad.
Chen Shu smiled slightly, nodded and said, "Yes, I will be merciful under my subordinates." "Go out first.
Hu Liewu scolded angrily and shouted: "Who wants your subordinates to show mercy?
Batu frowned when he heard this, he was obviously not optimistic about Hülegü at all, after all, Chen Shu's reputation was in full swing.
Li Qinglu couldn't help but be a little worried, and hurriedly said, "Prince please!"
All the officials were surprised or frightened, and there were many discussions, followed by a few people pouring out. (To be continued.) )
