Xie Song stood on the dock of the Athens port, not even a person to see him off. He also knew that everyone had made a choice and wanted to try his best to face reality. But the discomfort in his heart was not to be eliminated. Xie Song suddenly remembered the course of the school society. The courses said that human emotions come from **, and only abnormal content that cannot be handled by each organ can be transmitted to the brain. The brain does not have the ability to directly command each organ. Thinking of this, Xie Song felt that his heart was bright, but his emotions were still very bad.

He simply put down his suitcase, put on a coat, and sat on the soft coat. Now he felt something was quite uncomfortable. He stood up and picked up the coat, took out a steel cigarette box from his pocket, and folded the clothes. This time he sat down much more comfortable. When he lit a cigarette, Xie Song took a few puffs and felt better. After he felt better, Xie Song couldn't help but whisper: "These people, you can't come by yourself, can't send someone?"

But Xie Song himself knew that it happened so much at the meeting. If everyone came to see him off at this time, it would mean that he would be completely opposed to the governor Yelu Hong. He served every three years, and Yelu Hong had worked for more than a year, just because Xie Song had a view alone. There was no reason to openly stand up now. "Ah..." Xie Song sighed, feeling that being isolated was really bad. It seems that what the people in the society said was right. Human beings cannot live as they wish by relying on their own strength. In the primitive era, loneliness means danger. You can't really grow three heads and six arms. Just the cool breeze blowing behind people makes people feel furry. Xie Song, who took off his coat and sat on the dock, was blowing the cold wind in winter, clearly realized this.

Sitting alone on the dock for a long time, the springboard on the ship was finally put down. Xie Song stood up and wanted to put on the coat, but he still put the coat on his hand. He carried the suitcase in the cold wind and got on the ship to Rome. Now Xie Song is no longer the director of the office of Europa in Constantinople, but the trade representative of the Song Dynasty in Rome. The ranks are the same, but everyone understands that this is Yelu Hong's handling of Xie Song. The governor of Yelu completely opposed Xie Song's position, and he had to deal with the matter of the Eastern Roman Empire according to his own opinion.

There are many mountains in Italy. In theory, it will be faster to land from the east coast. In fact, the ships by boat will bypass the Italian Peninsula and take a big circle to get off the boat near the mouth of the Tiber River and then take a land to Rome. He was also very surprised when Xie Song walked on the sea route and the shadow of the city of seven hills appeared in the distance.

Constantinople is also known as the city of hills, imitating the terrain of the city of Rome. Now that the real Rome is about to arrive, Xie Song can't help but look forward to it. Get closer, there are more and more stone Roman buildings. Xie Song can't help but sigh to the welcome staff next to him: "The ancient capital of the thousand-year-old is indeed different."

"Director Xie likes it. We will walk around the city more often these days." The receptionist smiled.

"Let's see Boyan first." Xie Song smiled and said, "I really want to see him, but I'm worried that if I can't help but do something."

"This... Director Xie is joking." The receptionist said with a wry smile. Everyone in the Europa Province in the Song Dynasty knew what Boyan did back then. If Boyan accidentally drowned in the sea, everyone would be afraid that they would happily pour a few more buckets of sea water on the body. However, they were in such a mood but could not do it.

Boyan soon met Xie Song. The first thing Xie Song saw was a gray-haired and half-bald old man. But Xie Song felt something was wrong. This person only looked old, but he was not weak at all. Especially in his every move, he was very smooth and natural. But when he walked over like this, he felt impeccable.

Then Xie Song saw that Boyan's gaze had turned and looked Xie Song from top to bottom. This check made Xie Song feel that the old man had examined him from a certain angle, which forced Xie Song to be vigilant. But behind Xie Song was the Song Dynasty, and even if he was a little uneasy, he didn't feel scared. If Boyan dared to be unfavorable to Xie Song, what was waiting for Boyan would be the blow from the Song Dynasty, which was enough to make the Western Roman Empire fall to the ground.

After the meeting process, the banquet began. Everyone quickly ate and drank. Xie Song was savoring the food of the Western Roman Empire. A waiter came to invite Xie Song. He followed the waiter to a small room next to the hall, where there were wooden partitions and potted plants. You could see the two inside outside. If you were not completely close, you could not hear what the two were saying.

"Young man, why did you look at me so much just now?" Boyan asked indifferently.

"I can't help but want to see your every move is very different."

"What's so good about it?" Boyan was still calm.

"We have an idiom called Handan Xuebu. I wonder if you have heard of it."

"It seems that the man didn't learn to walk in Handan in the end. Do you think you can't learn it?"

"It's hard to say whether you can learn it. I just think of the good and think about how you can be so calm."

Boyan stared at Xie Song for a moment, and the expression on his face became sharp involuntarily. After reading it, Boyan smiled and said, "Director Xie has any important mission?"

"There is no mission. I wonder why you asked that."

Boyan was silent for a moment before answering, "I heard that there is an idiom called "Seeing the Weiwei" in the Han people. I have been in Mongolia for so long, and there are many people who want to learn from me, and there are also some who want to understand me. But I have never seen anyone who observes me like this before. Yelu Hong, the Jiedushi, sent someone like Director Xie, to come over, and I guess there must be something big."

While speaking, Boyan looked at Xie Song. When he saw Xie Song's expression change, he suddenly smiled, "So that's it."

Xie Song was alert and unhappy. What did Boyan understand? Although this old man was powerful, he would not have any suspicion in the Europa Province. Although he was very dissatisfied with Yelu Hong, Xie Song would not suspect that there would be someone in the Song people in the Europa Province colluding with the Mongols. He asked, "Please tell me what you understand."

"I think it was because Director Xie had a conflict with Yelu Jiedu, so he was transferred from Constantinople to Rome."

Xie Song felt a stern in his heart. Is the old man very powerful? But Xie Song felt that he could do this now, so he smiled but did not answer.

Boyan nodded slightly and continued, "I heard that there is a saying by the Han people that monks hit the bell for one day. Since Director Xie has arrived in Rome, he will not do anything. But he doesn't know what Director Xie has for trade."

"I have met many artists in Eastern Rome. Although the paintings they paint are too craftsmanship, they can also be seen. Many of their handicraft products can be sold. I look at the trade data in recent years. There has been no special increase in Western Rome. I wonder if Your Excellency Boyan has any arrangements for this." Xie Song directly pointed out the problem of Western Rome, and then looked at Boyan's reaction with a little malicious intention.

"The production of handmade factories in Eastern Rome is very large. There is indeed no other place in Western Rome that can be compared except for Venice. I am quite concerned about this. Director Xie, the population of Western Rome is not smaller than that of Eastern Rome, and it is not as exquisite as Eastern Rome. I want Western Rome to export cheaper and large quantities of goods. Since Director Xie is so proficient in trade, I would like to ask Director Xie for some advice."

Xie Song was stunned. He lowered his head slightly and picked up the drink on the table and took a sip. He began to think at this time. At this time, Xie Song felt unhappy, not because of Boyan, but because of Xie Song's thoughts that he had just thought about what Boyan said. If it weren't for having a considerable hatred for Boyan, Xie Song wouldn't have been alert so quickly. This old man... is a bit powerful, and a few words can guide Xie Song's thinking.

Just as I was thinking, Boyan spoke, "Director Xie, have you remembered the past when I attacked Song?"

Xie Song was stunned, but didn't say anything. Boyan continued, "Director Xie, I don't want to use the Song people to kill more Mongolians to defend me. Killing one and ten people during the war is actually just a number of differences. When I recall the mood when I attacked Song, I felt that it was the same as my current state of mind, and I had no hatred for the Song State."

"Then you killed so many people." Xie Song couldn't help but mock him.

"If Emperor Zhao of Song Dynasty ordered the Europa Province to slaughter Rome, do you think you were because of hatred or to fulfill your order when you participated in the war?"

"I don't like the Mongolians." Xie Song put his dissatisfaction in the past few days into his words.

"It was probably like this at the beginning. When Director Xie killed millions of people, was it because you didn't kill enough, or to hurry back home and reunite with your family after completing the king's order?"

Xie Song was stunned. He thought Boyan would be angry, or say something benevolent, righteous and moral, but he didn't expect Boyan to say such things. Xie Song had experienced that kind of fatigue. When the initial passion and the complacent emotions in execution dissipated, there was only fatigue and the expectation of quickly ending the matter before going to rest. Boyan was right... But it was too strange that such communication actually happened between him and Boyan.

He raised his vigilance again, Xie Song asked tentatively: "I wonder why Mr. Boyan asked me to come over and speak?"

"I want to tell Director Xie that I don't hate Song State. The world changes every day. I always move forward and look forward. So I choose to cooperate with the Europa Province and look forward to us working together."

“I wonder what you mean by cooperation?”

"How to increase trade, how to deal with the situation in Mongolia, Eastern Rome, and Yuan countries at this time. If Director Xie is willing to cooperate, we can cooperate."
