381 Before the meeting
Qi Zhifeng came with Mr. Qi, followed by several ministers who were good friends with the Qi family. After settling his father, he greeted his father's colleagues and ran over happily. Seeing the Xia State envoy The seat was next to Duan's, and he curled his lips in disgust. Although he was a little reluctant, he still puffed out his cheeks and sat down.
"I would like to ask this envoy, why do you look at me like this? Are you attracted by my handsomeness and have feelings of admiration?" Qi Zhifeng patted Jin Jing's arm and said, "My name is unique. , I’m sorry that I can’t respond to your feelings, you’d better like other people!”
"We haven't seen each other for a long time. Did you bump into something dirty? Or did you meet some bad person?" Shen Cha and Jin Jing stood up and returned gifts to Master Qi. After sitting down, they pulled Qi Zhifeng carefully. With her pigtails combed, "Where did you learn these gibberish words? If others hear it, aren't you afraid that they will laugh out loud?"
"What if others hear it? I am the most handsome and talented young master in Linhuang Mansion. This is not something I just say or claim to be. I am selected by all the ladies in Linhuang Mansion. For two whole years, I have been number one." Qi Zhifeng shook his head proudly and showed an almost provocative smile to Duan Yu, who had been looking at him with a smile, "Please note that it is all, Not only high-ranking nobles, but also common people have participated. I am well-deserved, and I am much better than those who shout out for themselves."
"Yes, yes, yes, you are the best, you are the most powerful!" Jin Jing glanced at the female officers behind her who were trying not to laugh, and sighed softly, "This romantic and handsome young man, first of all Drink some ginger soup to warm yourself up!"
"Brother Xiaojing!" Mr. Qi, who was highly sought after by all the girls in Linhuang Mansion, instantly changed from being proud to pitiful after hearing Jin Jing's words. He looked at the person sitting next to him with tears in his eyes, "Can you stop drinking? "It seems that I drank several bowls of this stuff today!" He counted on his fingers, "When I woke up in the morning, I was fed a bowl by Sister Xiaocha, when I got home in the afternoon, my mother drank a bowl, and after I woke up, I drank another bowl. Bowl, I really can’t drink any more. If I drink any more, I will take a detour when I see ginger soup.”
"Look, all the girls are looking at you. You are the most handsome young man in their eyes. Don't let them down, right?" Jin Jing raised her eyebrows as she put the soup bowl into Qi Zhifeng's hand. ,"please!"
Shen Cha and Duan Yu sat on either side of these two people, watching them as if they were watching a show the whole time. When they saw Qi Zhifeng, forced by Jin Jing's power, he pinched his nose and drank a bowl of ginger soup. Everyone laughed at the same time.
"Sister Xiaocha, how could you do this?" Qi Zhifeng wiped the soup stains from his mouth and said with a pout, "If you don't speak for me, why are you still laughing at my jokes? That's so unkind!"
"I didn't see your joke, I just thought you were too cute, that's why you laughed." Shen Cha glanced at Mei Zhu and asked her to hand Qi Zhifeng a pack of candied fruits, "You are familiar with my family, and you also know that he Although his character is very lively, it is impossible for him to be like you, act coquettishly, play tricks, and make people happy from time to time. Fortunately, with you here, I don’t have to force him. "
"That's true, I have always felt that Xiao Jiujiu's personality is a little dull, and I... Anan said that I am overly lively, which complements Xiao Jiujiu's personality very well, so we can become good friends."
A few candied fruits suppressed the spicy taste in his mouth. Qi Zhifeng turned sideways and looked at Duan Yu carefully. Although he was not happy to talk to him, the matter was so important that he still had to put aside his prejudices. "You...
Were everything you said before true? Were you not trying to trick us?"
"Master Qi is joking, how could such a big thing be false? This is not only related to the lives of more than a hundred people in the Hou family, as well as the fate of our colleagues standing with us, it is also related to the Duan family.
In the future." A wry smile appeared on Duan Yu's face, "I can swear that if there is any intention to deceive, you will suffer the pain of thousands of arrows piercing your heart."
"Well, since you are so sincere, I will serve as a microphone for the return call. But there is one thing I want to say in advance." Qi Zhifeng's expression was serious, "It is absolutely impossible for us to send troops.
of."
"This is also our request." Jin Jing nodded in agreement, "We can refuse Prince Duan's request for help, but if he wants us to send troops for reinforcements, we will not be able to comply. If Mr. Duan cannot accept it, we will have no way to continue the discussion.
Already."
"You three are worrying too much. Who said you have to use swords and guns to kill him?" Duan Yu pointed to his head, "It's the same here."
"We are military generals, so naturally we are thinking about wielding swords and guns. If we are not well-spoken, please ask Mr. Duan Haihan." Shen Cha waved towards Qi Zhifeng, "It is rare for me to be an envoy.
I also need to recognize people, so that if I bump into each other in the future, they recognize me, but I don’t know them. Isn’t this very rude!”
"okay!"
Qi Zhifeng rolled his eyes at Duan Yu, exchanged seats with Jin Jing, and began to introduce Shen Cha to the nobles and important ministers of the Liao Kingdom who were sitting opposite. In addition to introducing their names, official positions and families, he also emphatically explained
Which one is one of our own, which one is the opponent, and which one can be won over. Even though he seems to be doing nothing all day long, he can actually explain the origins and backgrounds of these people clearly. It is obvious that he has worked hard on weekdays.
.
Shen Cha held her cheek and listened to his introduction very seriously. She also refilled his tea bowl from time to time to prevent him from talking too much and hurting his throat.
When Xiao Fengqi appeared in the palace with several Xiao family children, everyone's good mood suddenly disappeared.
The so-called enemies are extremely jealous when they meet. The Xiao family is now not only the enemy of the Yelu family, but also the Qi family. After the assassination attempt, they have successfully been ranked first on Shen Cha's blacklist.
"What bad luck!" Qi Zhifeng snorted heavily, "Why didn't that bastard Xiao Fengqi suddenly get sick? I really hope they can't come tonight!" He clenched his fists, "If it weren't for the wrong occasion, I really want to beat them up.
"Dun! But..." He tugged at Jin Jing who was holding his shoulders, "Brother Xiaojing, don't worry, I won't act impulsively."
"It's good that you know that if you make trouble, the Yelu family and the Qi family will be embarrassed. If the Xiao family takes the initiative to provoke, others will say that they are unwilling to fail and will be ridiculed by the world." It was not Jin Jing who spoke.
, but Duan Yu, who was not favored by Qi Zhifeng, "The so-called civil servants and military generals are essentially the same. It does not mean that military generals are born with brute force and cannot use their brains. On the contrary, in many cases, military generals are far more resourceful.
Better than the so-called civil servants." He looked at Shen Cha, "General Shen is a victorious general who is envied by military generals. Naturally, it is not just the use of force to achieve this achievement. General Shen's intelligence and strategy are higher than most civil and military officers.
Why belittle yourself! If what I said before was inappropriate and offended General Shen, I am willing to apologize to the General."
"Second Young Master Duan is joking!" Shen Cha glanced at Duan Yu lightly and patted Qi Zhifeng's arm, "Stop staring at them. If you look at them again, Young Master Xiao may think that you have something to tell him. He will come over soon. You don’t want to cause any unpleasant things before the banquet starts, do you?”
"That's right, that's right, everyone is here to have fun tonight, don't let those people ruin our mood." Jin Jing tugged on Qi Zhifeng's pigtails and looked at him with a forced smile and turned his head. He glanced at the Tubo envoy who had just entered the door, then looked at Duan Yu next to him, "Second Young Master, does this Tubo envoy live in the same posthouse as you?"
"No, if we talk about my grievances against the military generals, the Tibetan envoys are the real culprits." Duan Yu waved his hand towards Shen Cha, "I'm really not targeting General Shen, it's just... well, it's hard to describe in one sentence!"
"Did the Tubo people offend Mr. Duan?" Seeing that Duan Yu didn't look like he was cheating, Shen Cha felt curious, "The Tubo family and the Duan family shouldn't have much interaction, right? If it hadn't been for this trip, dozens of people would have We haven’t dealt with each other even once every year, so why is it that Second Young Master Duan’s resentment is so deep that it even involves all the generals?”
"The only thing to blame is that the Tubo people are too overbearing. We live in the same post house with them, and they are driving us crazy!"
