After a night of silence, Xiao Han was awakened by the sound of rumbling drums early the next morning.
The quilt was kicked aside and the headrest was thrown out. It was only after Xiao Han lost his temper in the room that Xiaodong cautiously opened the door and entered the room.
"Master Hou, are you awake?"
"Nonsense! Are you talking to a ghost if you don't wake up?! It's early in the morning, knocking on wool! Didn't we just win the battle yesterday! Didn't you even get a full night's sleep today?!" Xiao Han stood on the bed with a hand on his hip and a finger.
Where the drum is played, the person yells like a teapot.
Xiaodong had no choice but to smile awkwardly. Seeing that Xiao Han was about to jump off the bed, he quickly bent over to find some clothes.
It's early spring, and it's terrible to get cold!
After stepping on his boots and putting on a big shirt that Xiaodong brought, Xiao Han yawned loudly and asked: "Xiaodong, what kind of drum do you think this is? You have been beating it so early in the morning!"
"
Xiaodong was busy helping Xiao Han tie his belt. Hearing this, he said without raising his head: "Master Hou, this is the gathering drum!"
"Jujianggu?" Xiao Han touched the hair that had just grown on his chin and suddenly asked: "Huh? Do I need to go?"
"Um...ahem, Mr. Hou, you don't have to go..." Xiaodong almost choked to death at Xiao Han's words! Brother, the Jujianggu is used to summon generals, and those who fail to pass three times will be beheaded! You can join in at this time
What fun...
"No need to go? Forget it, let's go and have a look. Don't wait until something happens." Xiao Han didn't know that Xiaodong was already scolding him. He stood there and thought for a while, but still felt a little uneasy.
Yesterday, just because he didn't pay attention to Xiao Lizi, he rushed out and beat him to death! Now if he does it again, it's hard to say whether Xiao Han's little heart can bear it!
You know, in your best idea, you are to be a minister of the dragon and be rich for all generations! After all, the history books say: Except for one Hou Junji, those who started their careers with Xiao Lizi lived a happy life.
And this life of freedom is precisely Xiao Han's lifelong dream! For this lofty and glorious goal, now he has to keep an eye on the dragon Xiao Lizi...
What if the dragon disappears by accident... Where can I cry then?
Xiao Han insisted on going, and Xiaodong couldn't stop him. But by the time he packed up his clothes and put on his boots, the gathering drum outside had already stopped!
After going out, Xiao Han pulled Xiaodong and trotted to the place where the drums were played, but found that the place was already full of people, and it was impossible to see clearly what was going on inside.
Xiao Han jumped up and took a quick look behind him, but he could only see Xiao Lizi and Changsun Shunde at the front, wondering what they were talking about.
"What are you doing? Something big happened? No, I have to go and see!"
Xiao Han became curious and looked at the crowd in front of him. He left Xiaodong behind and went straight into the crowd, struggling to squeeze in next to the two people.
"Hey, King Qin!"
Li Shimin was whispering something to his eldest son, Shunde, when he suddenly heard someone calling him. He couldn't help but look sideways, and when he realized it was Xiao Han, he felt a little strange.
"Xiao Han? Why are you here?"
Xiao Han struggled to squeeze over, rubbed his hands and smiled dryly at Li Shimin: "Hey, everything is going well in that logistics camp, nothing major happened. I heard the drums beating and came over to see, what's going on now?"
"Oh..." Li Shimin didn't take it seriously and replied casually: "It's not a big deal. Wang Shichong sent an envoy here this morning."
"Messenger? Why? Come to surrender?" Xiao Han touched his head and asked strangely. But it's not that big of a deal, he was beaten up yesterday and he surrendered today?
Li Shimin was also amused by Xiao Han's unreasonable thoughts, raised the corners of his mouth, and whispered: "How is it possible to surrender? Most likely they were defeated yesterday because they were too confused. Today they sent someone to find out the truth..."
Just as Xiao Lizi finished speaking, Changsun Shunde next to him chuckled, holding a horizontal knife and said: "I think Wang Shichong is getting better and better! He's already been beaten, so why bother probing? I'll find a way to fight him back."
It’s right!”
"That……"
"Hush, people are coming!"
Xiao Han opened his mouth and was about to speak, but Li Shimin suddenly stood up straight and whispered an order.
In fact, Li Shimin didn't need to give orders. After a lone figure appeared on the street, Xiao Han found that everyone around him had stopped talking and stared at the visitor angrily.
Xiao Han heard Uncle Lengzi say this move. This is to use force to overwhelm others and seize the advantage first! Only when the opponent's people are confused can he gain the upper hand or force him to reveal his flaws.
I remember when Jing Ke assassinated Qin and Qin Wuyang, who had been killing people since he was 12 years old, faced the power of the Xianyang Palace, he could not move his legs or speak! This shows the power of his power.
There are two rows of Chinese people on the street. They all look like menacing figures, exuding a sense of rebelliousness! If Xiao Han were to play the role of a messenger walking all the way, his legs would definitely be weak! As for whether he would pee.
It’s really hard to say about pants…
However, when Xiao Han saw the person coming clearly, he knew that the arrangement made by Changsun Shunde and Xiao Lizi today was destined to not have the effect it should have.
"Your Majesty's envoy, Zhou Yong, has met the Tang general!"
The visitor from the other side of the street strode up to Li Shimin, looked at Li Shimin and Changsun Shunde standing in the middle, and casually bowed his hands as a salute.
As for the ferocious soldiers and generals around him, it was as if they were completely invisible to him. Xiao Han also found that this man dared to take the time to turn his head and laugh.
"Where did this idiot come from? Is he really a messenger?" Xiao Han looked at this person up and down, and a big question mark appeared in his heart...
Aren't envoys supposed to be wise and steady? People like Su Qin, Zhang Yi, or Tang Jian are scheming! Why did Wang Shichong send such a Qiu Ba?
"Is it possible that he also came here to take advantage of the opportunity to assassinate?" Xiao Han thought about it and suddenly thought of this! So he quickly hid his body behind him.
The King of Qin is not the First Emperor of Qin, and there are no ministers of parliament around here! If you dare to assassinate here, there are no doors, not to mention windows! You just have to be careful with your small body to avoid accidental injuries...
Li Shimin was also frowning at the person coming. He did not expect that the messenger turned out to be a rough man. When he was about to ask a question, he suddenly noticed that the corners of the clothes of this rough man who was looking around and looking strange were trembling.
"Oh, it turns out he is afraid too!" Li Shimin found this and felt relieved. Looking at the man's hand again, he found that the man's hand was also trembling slightly.
That is to say, is there anyone in this world who is so bold and bold?
The show of force had been completed. Li Shimin waved his hand and dismissed the surrounding soldiers. He, his eldest son Shunde and several personal guards led the envoy named Zhou Yong into the house. Xiao Han scratched his head, looked inside the house, and with a thought, he also followed
He walked in behind Li Shimin.
Enter the room and take a seat. Of course there are many seats, but there are only three people sitting down.
Behind Li Shimin, Xiao Han kicked the original scribe away and stood there pretending to be a soldier. He looked at his nose and his heart, waiting to see what these rich and powerful envoys could say.
However, after sitting down, the envoy did not speak again, nor did Li Shimin or Changsun Shunde. Xiao Han, who was waiting to watch the show, was a little disappointed. He felt that this meeting with the enemy's envoy was completely different from what he had imagined.
No one asked the envoy to kneel down and kowtow, and no one reprimanded him loudly. Maybe no one except the extremely arrogant dynasty was too lazy to do these superficial things.
Just like talking about things as usual, Li Shimin looked at the envoy who was coming down, first broke the dullness, and asked loudly: "Zhou...yong, right? What did Wang Shichong send you to do?"
At this moment, Zhou Yong, who looks exactly like the reincarnation of Li Kui, is drinking tea from a small teacup. He feels that the aroma of this small bowl of golden tea is fragrant! Although the first taste is bitter, the aftertaste is sweet, but the portion is too small. After one sip, I almost taste it.
