Xu Zizhen stood behind Zhao Gou, bowed slightly, and took in the expressions of the two people during the conversation. He was very satisfied with Zhao Gou's attitude. The play was really good, but he had just thought about it. Wanyan Zongwang
A deputy general next to him suddenly looked at him and shouted sharply: "Hey! My marshal is talking to your prince, and you are still standing?"
Uh...Me? Damn it, I was shot even while I was lying down?
Xu Zizhen took a look around, and sure enough, in the Song Dynasty, except for Zhao Gou, Zhang Bangchang and a few other leading personnel, all the other attendants knelt down. Only he and Yan Zhao were still standing.
Seeing that the target of the attack suddenly turned towards him inexplicably, he was about to deal with it when he heard Zhao Gou say: "I am an envoy of the Song Dynasty. All the people accompanying me represent the Song Dynasty. There is no reason to kneel down in the Rujin military camp."
Xu Zizhen was so surprised that he almost said a good word. Zhao Gou's words were neither humble nor arrogant, reasonable and well-founded. They were not embarrassing at all. The show of power that was obviously prompted by Wanyan Zongwang was resolved in this way.
The deputy general opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say. At this time, Wanyan Zongwang smiled and smoothed things over: "What His Highness Prince Kang said is reasonable. Come, come, come. You have come a long way to work, so please follow me into the camp first." He said affectionately.
He took Zhao Gou's hand and walked inside.
Zhang Bangchang followed Zhao Gou silently, and the other Song court officials and entourage followed him in a meandering way. Xu Zizhen noticed that the chief minister did not seem to have caught Wanyan Zongwang's eyes at all, and did not even say hello, but he understood after thinking about it.
, The main purpose of the Jin people this time is to extort money. There is no need to pay much attention to people like Zhang Bangchang who look servile at first glance. They just need to knock down Zhao Gou's arrogance.
An open space had been prepared in the camp, with a circle of tables set up in the middle and a thick layer of fur on the ground. Wanyan Zongwang walked up to the seat of honor first and warmly invited Zhao Gou like a master.
Sitting on his left hand side, Zhao Gou knew clearly that he had bad intentions and was declaring his sovereignty, but he was in a guest place and in the center of the opponent's camp, so it was temporarily inconvenient, so he had to endure it and sit down.
A group of golden generals took their seats opposite Zhao Gou and others. The first one was Wanyan Zongbi, also known as Wu Shu. The following people were also dressed as military generals, all wearing armor. They only took off their helmets and placed them on the side of the case.
.
Zhang Bangchang sat down next to Zhao Gou. Behind him was another official accompanying him, Cao Sheng, the Prince Consort of the Song Dynasty. All the guards stood behind them with weapons in hand. Only Yan and Zhao stood majestically beside Zhao Gou. As for Xu Zizhen
Then he was not even considered a follower, and could only stand far away from Su San and other handymen.
It was almost evening, and a red sun was gradually setting in the sky. Wanyan Zongwang clapped his hands, and soon Jin Bing brought the drinks, food and water prices. Not long after, the tables in front of everyone were piled up. Wanyan Zongwang
He picked up the wine glass and smiled at Zhao Gou and said, "Your Highness has come all the way, so Zong Wang wants to offer you a drink first!" After speaking, he raised his neck and drank it all.
Zhao Gou didn't refuse, he picked up the wine in front of him and drank it down in one gulp, but his face was cold and he didn't say a word. The atmosphere in the place became a little lukewarm. Zhang Bangchang rolled his eyes and picked up the wine glass, stood up and bowed to Wanyan Zongwang and said:
"His Royal Highness Kang Wang is tired from riding and is feeling quite unwell. He is not a talented official. I would like to offer a toast to Your Majesty, Commander-in-Chief!" After saying this, he drank it all in one gulp.
Wanyan Zongwang laughed and drank with him, then looked at Zhang Bangchang: "This is Prime Minister Zhang, right? I've been neglecting you so much just now, I hope you don't blame me."
Zhang Bangchang had a flattering smile on his face: "What the hell, Bangchang is not good at words. I just saw that the right commander is running the army in a strict manner. He couldn't help but feel frightened. He actually made the right commander laugh."
When Zhao Gou saw his servant-like appearance, he immediately became angry, but remembering what Xu Zizhen said just now, he suppressed his anger and just ignored it. Yan Zhao had a bad temper and had always looked down on Zhang Bangchang's character, so he couldn't help it at that time.
He snorted.
Wanyan Zongwang saw this, his face was calm, and he winked secretly at Wu Shu. Wu Shu understood, stood up and said with a smile: "Marshal, the young general has an unkind request, I don't know whether to say it or not."
Xu Zizhen's heart skipped a beat when he heard this from behind, and whispered to Su San beside him: "The tricks are about to start, wait and see what I mean."
Before Su San could react, he just nodded blankly, and then heard Yan Zongwang say: "Oh? There's nothing wrong with it, just say it."
Wu Shu still smiled and said: "His Royal Highness King Kang has come all the way, and it stands to reason that we should welcome him with a grand ceremony. Unfortunately, my Jurchen son does not know the music, so he can only entertain the distinguished guests with fist and foot sumo wrestling, and I ask for the permission of the commander-in-chief!"
"
Wanyan Zongwang slapped the table and laughed, "That makes sense, that's right!"
Zhao Gou's face looked a little unsightly. He naturally understood that Wanyan Zongwang was beginning to kill him Wei Feng, or rather kill the entire Song Dynasty envoy Wei Feng. However, he was now in the territory of the Jin people and could not raise any objections even if he had any objections.
, besides, they didn’t even give me a chance to argue and just ordered the food to be served.
There was a large empty space in the center of the venue. It seemed that the Wanyan brothers had prepared for this performance early in the morning. Wu Shu waved his hand, and two big men entered the venue, saluted Wanyan Zongwang, and greeted Zhao.
But Gou didn't even look at him, his contempt was palpable.
Wanyan Zongwang nodded: "Let's get started. Let His Royal Highness Prince Kang see my Jurchen Erlang's style."
The two men said no more, stood facing each other, and suddenly shouted and moved their hands.
They were all bare-chested, with a four-finger-wide cowhide belt tied around their waists. As soon as they got started, they grabbed each other's shoulders and waists. This was not a common martial art among the Song people, but a primitive wrestling technique.
Both of them are extremely tall and strong, and their moves are extremely fast and fierce. They are not like ordinary sparring at all. They are entangled with each other as soon as they start fighting. They wrench their heads, cut their necks, and hook their feet. Every move is simple, direct, and never sloppy. Song Ting is like this.
Bian had almost never seen this kind of Kung Fu, and he was a little dazzled for a while.
Xu Zizhen didn't think it was strange. It was somewhat similar to the judo of his time, except that what these two men were doing seemed to have some elements of Mongolian wrestling mixed in. After a while, one of them was obviously better in skill, and he performed a hook and reverse kick.
The pendulum threw the other person several feet away and landed on the ground with a muffled thud.
This move was clean and neat, and the man could throw the nearly two hundred kilograms man so far, which showed that the man's arm strength was so strong that most of the guards at Song Ting looked at him in horror, and even Yan Zhao had a look of solemnity in his eyes.
Wanyan Zongwang was the first to applaud and said with a big smile: "Okay! Come on, enjoy the wine!"
An attendant brought a large bowl of wine to him. The man raised his neck and drank it. He threw the bowl away and saluted Wanyan Zongwang. He said loudly: "Commander, dancing alone is boring. I will never dare to think."
Please ask the experts under His Royal Highness Prince Kang to come up and give me some advice."
